The feeling of loss in my heart just now was suddenly swept away.
There was even a hint of smile in his eyes, "Do you really think she and I are a good match?"
Shu Nian bit his lip, and said something insincerely, "... Yeah."
What a stubborn and hard-talking woman!
Ye Yan held her face with one hand and turned her face to face him. At a glance, he saw the mist in her eyes. There was a trace of pain in his heart, but it was accompanied by a trace of joy, and the sense of relief that his thoughts were finally confirmed. He looked at her, "If I say that you really think she and I are suitable, then I will listen to you and be with her-"
Shu Nian's whole body stiffened and his expression changed slightly.
"Shu Nian, do you still think she and I are suitable?"
The tears in Shu Nian's eyes finally couldn't be held back, and slid down without warning. She realized her loss of composure, raised her hand to wipe them off, pried his hand away, stood up and left. However, Ye Yan was one step faster than her, stood up, put his arms around her waist, and hugged her back. He stood up with a turn, and she was held on the chair by him instead. Because of his big movement, the medicine bottle on his head shook several times, and he spread his hands on the armrests of the chair, holding her tightly. The needle in his hand was crooked, but he didn't notice it.
Shu Nian also didn't know why she felt so uncomfortable. She lost control of her emotions and pushed him with both hands. However, he was so big that she couldn't shake him even if his back was injured. She bit her lip and hit his shoulder, "Ye Yan, go away!"
Ye Yan looked at her tears, and a constant stream of pity welled up from the bottom of his heart. In his impression, she was always strong, restrained, and calm. Even when Madam Xiang humiliated her to the point of being completely humiliated, she did not shed a single tear. But at this moment...
"Shu Nian, Xu Ying and I have nothing to do with each other."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shu Nian paused in her struggle. She blinked her eyelashes, which were still covered with a thin layer of mist. Washed by tears, her eyes seemed brighter. Ye Yan looked at her with a burning look and continued to explain: "I don't know how you know that our parents have met, but the scene at that time was definitely not what you think - I don't like her, and I will never be with her."
Shu Nian bit her lip, said nothing, looked at him, and turned her face away. However, her tense face had unconsciously relaxed a lot.
Ye Yan pinched her chin, turned her face back, and looked at her from top to bottom. At this moment, his expression was more serious than ever before. "Today at noon, you suddenly changed your mind and didn't come to my place. You also refused to answer my calls all day. Is it because you met Xu Ying and Ye Lan?"
Shu Nian bit his lip and said, "I didn't meet them, but... I was behind them."
Compared to his previous attitude, his voice has become much softer.
Ye Yan's thumb brushed across her cheek, gently wiping away the tears under her eyes. His movements were not gentle, but full of pity. Shu Nian was stunned, and her heart suddenly throbbed even more violently. Such a small movement of his stirred up ripples in her heart. Suddenly realizing that she had lost her composure, and she was very out of control, she lowered her eyes in embarrassment.
He felt that Shu Nian was even more lovable like this, and stared at her with a half-smile in his eyes, "I shut Xu Ying out. Now, can you stop being angry and answer my call?"
Shu Nian's face turned red with embarrassment.
So... in the final analysis, she was still jealous... even though she was reluctant to admit it.
She couldn't ask loudly, nor could she argue with him like other women, so she could only keep silent. However, she also felt the bitterness in her heart.
"Master Ye, would you like some tea or..." At this moment, the heavy door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. The nurse, holding the tea, was standing at the door. Seeing this scene, she was startled and silently prepared to leave. Shu Nian came to his senses and felt embarrassed. He quickly sat up from the chair and saw that the other party was about to leave, so he hurriedly said, "Um, nurse, it seems that the needle in his hand needs to be reinserted."
"Um?"
The nurse turned around.
Ye Yan then looked at the back of his hand. Shu Nian frowned slightly, seeing a swelling on his hand, "Next time you get an injection, take it seriously and don't move around. This has happened twice."
Ye Yan pulled out the needle directly and looked at her with a smile, "Tell me, why am I so happy to listen to you scolding me?"
Shu Nian: “…”
———
The nurse reinserted the needle into Ye Yan's vagina and went out.
"I have to go on duty." Shu Nian checked the time. "It would be terrible if something happened while I was away."
"What time do you have to be on duty?"
"Around two o'clock, I switched shifts with someone else."
Ye Yan looked at his watch. It was just past 9 o'clock.
Shu Nian brought the boiled water over to him and handed it to him, "If anything happens, call the nurse."
"Um."
"Then I'll leave." Shu Nian pointed to the door.
Ye Yan's eyes deepened slightly and he nodded. Shu Nian remembered something, walked to the door, and turned back. Ye Yan raised his eyebrows, "Anything else?"
"I want to ask you something—"
"you say."
"Why did your father give me a business card?" Shu Nian took the business card from his pocket and walked over to him, "This was given to me by your grandma today. She said that if I need any help in the future, just look for your father. She also said..."
"say what?"
"Say you owe me." Shu Nian looked at him and asked very seriously and confusedly: "What do you owe me?"
Ye Yan didn't look up for a long time, nor did he say anything. It wasn't until Shu Nian patted his shoulder that he came back to his senses, but he just said evasively: "Don't listen to my grandma's nonsense."
"Nonsense?"
"She's old now, and sometimes people can't understand what she says." Ye Yan handed the business card back to Shu Nian, "This business card means that my parents, including my grandparents, accept you. They like you."
like her
Shu Nian always felt that Ye Yan's words made her even more confused. The old lady's words that they owed her did not sound like nonsense. Perhaps Ye Yan did not understand what the old lady meant
"Are you sure your parents like me?" Shu Nian felt that Ye Yan was comforting him. "We had a masked fight at Tianmu Restaurant last time. I think they seem to like Xu Ying more."
Ye Yan changed his sitting position again, propping up his chin with one hand, supporting his handsome face, "Shu Nian, it turns out that you are also a jealous person."
"…Who's jealous?" Shu Nian blushed. Thinking of how he had cried before, he felt even more ashamed.
Ye Yan smiled even more deeply, and just leaned his head to look at her, looking particularly charming, "I like your jealousy very much, but... I will try to make you less jealous in the future."
After a pause, he continued, "Comparatively speaking, I don't like seeing you cry even more."
