"I'm sorry, Auntie was distracted~" Shu Nian rubbed the child's head and said apologetically.
"I should thank Auntie." The little boy was happy again.
"Mumu." At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly sounded, followed by the sound of high heels, coming from far away.
Shu Nian was slightly stunned.
This sound...
Is it similar
She didn't turn around, but just glanced at Ye Yan subconsciously. Across from him, Ye Yan's brows were already cold.
"Auntie, my mom is here, I have to go!" The child waved at her. Shu Nian smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Xiao Mumu ran towards her mother with the ball. However, she was also stunned. Obviously, she also saw Ye Yan. She recognized Shu Nian at a glance.
"Mom, this auntie helped me pick up the little ball!" Mumu pointed at Shu Nian.
Shu Nian had no choice but to stand up and nod slightly, as a greeting to Ning Meng. As time passed, the provocations and disputes in the past seemed a little ridiculous when he recalled them now.
Ye Yan didn't stand up, but just glanced at Ning Meng calmly. The warning in his eyes was obvious, and it still frightened Ning Meng. She still remembered the incident five years ago.
It turns out that five years later, he still loves Shu Nian so much...
Ning Meng bent over and picked up the child, and said to the child: "Did you say thank you to your aunt?"
"Yes! I already said it!"
"So good." Ning Meng kissed the child's cheek.
"Sorry to bother you." Ning Meng finally spoke to Shu Nian in a calm tone.
"No. Your son is very cute." Shu Nian replied calmly and sincerely. The past was already indifferent to her. However, she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Ning Meng in front of her didn't seem to be living a very happy life.
There is a kind of sadness that comes from the heart, no matter what kind of smile or makeup, it can't cover up her former arrogance. Women, when observing people's minds, are always so sensitive and delicate.
"Thank you." Ning Meng smiled and looked at Shu Nian again, "You seem to have... changed a lot."
Become more elegant, mature and confident than before.
Such a Shu Nian is becoming more and more charming.
A woman's growth, in addition to her own improvement, obviously also depends on the love and care of a man. At this moment, even if Shu Nian didn't say anything, just standing there, you can see the enviable happiness.
"I won't disturb you anymore. I'll go over first." Ning Meng didn't say much and looked back at the place where he originally sat.
Shu Nian followed her line of sight and saw that Xiang Muyang was not there, but Madam Xiang was there. She was also looking over here, and when she saw Shu Nian and Ye Yan, she hastily turned her eyes away. She no longer had the domineering air she had in the past, and she looked much more vicissitudes of life.
Ning Meng held the child and turned to leave. After taking a step, she turned back and suddenly said, "Shu Nian, if you have nothing to do someday, go see your mother."
Shu Nian's chest trembled slightly.
"She was also hospitalized in Ci'an Hospital recently. But it's not the one in the city center, it's the one on Nanfeng Road."
"Hospitalization? What happened to her?"
"It's an old problem. I've been getting through the past few years like this." Ning Meng didn't elaborate and left with the child in his arms.
On this side, Shu Nian was a little uneasy.
Ye Yan knew what she was thinking and had already called Tang Jifeng.
After hanging up the phone, he said, "Let's eat first. Since it's in Ci'an Hospital, the condition over the years can be adjusted. I've already found Ji Feng, and he will have someone sort it out and email it to me later."
Shu Nian nodded, but she was still a little uneasy. Ye Yan cut a steak for her, and seeing that she was still like that, he found a topic to divert her attention, "There is something you probably don't know yet."
"What?" Shu Nian's attention was indeed drawn by his words.
"The year after you left, the Xiang Group was investigated. There were many unclear points in the company's accounts, and Xiang Muyang was investigated. Later, he was sentenced to five years in prison. The Xiang Group went bankrupt."
Shu Nian stared in amazement.
Naturally, she had never heard of the news here while abroad. After she came back, she was very busy with work, and the school also had to mail back graduation papers. After finally finishing her work, she was in a hurry to get married and meet her parents, so Shu Nian had never heard of other people's news here.
She was extremely surprised. “No wonder the look on Madam Xiang’s face when she saw us just now was completely different from before.”
Ye Yan curled his lips in noncommittal, "She only has this one son. If Ning Meng hadn't given the Xiang family a grandson, giving her something to rely on, she would probably be dead now."
Shu Nian felt sad. In just a few years, many things had changed.
She suddenly remembered something, and stretched her hand across the table toward Ye Yan. Ye Yan stared at her palm, "What are you doing?"
"Remember that card you confiscated a few years ago?"
He raised an eyebrow, "The property that Xiang Muyang gave you? Why, now you want to help your ex-husband in front of your current husband?"
"Hmm~ I have a very rich husband now, and a job that can support myself and my family. I have no place to spend the money. Besides, didn't you forbid me to spend other men's money? So, I should just give it back to them."
Ye Yan said nothing.
However, because of her word 'husband', a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
Shu Nian looked back at the old man, the child and Ning Meng at the table, "The child is still so young, and his father is not around. Food and clothing all cost money. That money should be given to that innocent child."
"That's too late."
"ah?"
"I spent it all." Ye Yan said calmly.
Shu Nian didn't believe it. She put down her knife and fork, walked over, and directly reached into his wallet. She knew that he always kept the card in his wallet, and she had seen it before. Ye Yan tried to block it twice, but failed to stop her hand from touching it. Shu Nian opened it and flipped through it for a long time, but as expected, the card was not there.
"Ye Yan, you wouldn't really spend his money, would you?"
"What do you mean his money? That's my wife's money!" Ye Yan spoke righteously.
Shu Nian's lips twitched, "... You are really shameless."
Ye Yan took the wallet back, grabbed her lips and kissed her. Kissing in public on such an occasion, Shu Nian's face was reddened, but she did not push him away. After a long time, Ye Yan slightly moved away from her lips and whispered: "I gave it to Ning Meng after the accident, so there is no need to look for it again."
Shu Nian patted him and said, "You are teasing me on purpose. Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Too.
Ye Yan has never been a heartless person. He looks so arrogant and unruly on the outside, but his heart is always warm.
Ning Meng took Mu Mu's hand and walked out of the restaurant with Madam Xiang. From a distance, they could see Shu Nian and Ye Yan kissing passionately. Even the air seemed to be filled with bubbles of enviable happiness.
