"It sounds like you are really miserable." Xiao Yu said.
"Hmm... um?" Yan Jin, who originally wanted to say that she didn't care about it at all, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and took the opportunity to pretend to be pitiful and said, "Well, so is there any comforting hug?"
"It's too late to pretend to be pitiful. The tone of your words just now sounds like you don't need comfort at all." Xiao Yu said sharply.
"That's just pretending to be strong."
"Please don't make me laugh, please."
"Well, that's the truth." Yan Jin, who couldn't get benefits, didn't care, and admitted frankly: "I have lived with my grandfather in a foreign country since I was very young, and I have little contact with domestic affairs. It's not that important, not to mention that you married me, not my family, so you don't have to worry about these things."
Xiao Yu raised his voice and said: "Who is married to you? It was agreed that you will marry me, okay?"
Yan Jin looked at Xiao Yu's face flushed with anger, stretched out his hand, and pinched it.
"Uh, only my daughter-in-law can pinch my face, you have to agree to marry me first..." Xiao Yu said inarticulately, covering his cheeks.
"Okay, I agree." Yan Jin was very cooperative with her lover's performance, and then felt good.
After playing around for a while, it was rare for Xiao Yu to remember the serious matter he was discussing, without being distracted by Yan Jin.
"I remember you said that your mother is not here anymore?"
"...Yes." Yan Jin hesitated for a moment, but quickly adjusted her mood, and said in a normal tone: "I was very young when she left, so I don't have much memory of her."
"Then how is your relationship with your stepmother?"
Although Xiao Yu himself has a fairly good stepmother, he is not so naive as to think that stepmothers all over the world can be like Ms. Fang, especially for a "Snow White Prince" like Yan Jin, if his stepmother is not an old The witch is really sorry for the rich and bloody romance drama he has watched for so many years, okay
"What are you thinking?"
Yan Jin knocked on Xiao Yu's small forehead.
"Woo." Xiao Yu covered his forehead in pain, and complained, "Didn't you promise not to eavesdrop on my heart?"
"When did I talk to you?"
"Now." Xiao Yu started to play rogue.
"It doesn't matter if I promise you, but it's actually out of my control. It's like..." Yan Jin thought for a while before coming up with a more vivid explanation: "It's like breathing. I can decide not to breathe once or twice. No, even if I don't try to do it, the body will breathe spontaneously."
Xiao Yu snorted dissatisfied.
"Besides, I don't even need to listen to your inner voice to know what strange things you are thinking." Yan Jin pinched Xiao Yu's already flushed smiling face again: "It's all written here, idiot."
"Hmph, you are stupid, your whole family is stupid."
"Excluding me from my whole family, you are the only one." Yan Jin said.
"It's too much. Even if you don't count your vicious stepmother, you still have a father and a grandfather."
"What and what..." Yan Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Xiao Yu's statement: "There is no conflict between me and my stepmother, and it's not her turn to bully me. I'm talking about the Yan family's family rules. I'm the head of the family now, strictly speaking. It has been separated from the original family tree, and neither my father nor my grandfather can hinder my decision, so you don't have to worry about being bullied by an evil mother-in-law after marriage, and no one will tell you to leave with a check of millions .”
Having said so much, Xiao Yu felt that he shouldn't pursue it any further, so he reluctantly let out a "hmm".
Yan Jin stared at the listless Xiao Yu for a while, then raised his eyebrows.
"Is that why you want all my family members to attend?"
"Not really, it's just..." Xiao Yu shook his head, and then nodded again: "After all, marriage, if possible, I hope it can be as perfect as possible, but there is nothing you can do about your special situation..."
"Okay, since you begged me so much, I can only satisfy you." Yan Jin said.
"Wait, who begged you, no, didn't you just say no..." Xiao Yu was confused by Yan Jin.
"There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as there is a heart, there will always be a way."
Xiao Yu was overjoyed: "Then when shall we talk to uncles and aunts together?"
"Let's wait for yl to develop better. My father is an entrepreneur. I can definitely impress him with his outstanding business achievements."
Yan Jin smiled inscrutablely.
"When you say that, I feel motivated to go to work." Xiao Yu said.
"Huh? It means that you have no motivation in the first place, but you will be punished for dereliction of duty."
Yan Jin's hand pinching her face slowly shifted, slid across her sensitive neck and landed on her sunken waist, looking like she could have an office play at any time.
"No, no, it's not..."
Xiao Yu didn't mind playing in the office, but rather because Yan Jin questioned his professionalism.
You must know how deeply and deeply he loves his own industry, and he will never compromise on this point.
Xiao Yu looked at Yan Jin with condemnation and determination.
"Hey, this is the meeting material, it's all crumpled like this, remember to get another one before the meeting." Yan Jin happened to leave the document that Xiao Yu was playing with as a microphone just now, and casually reminded.
Firm Xiao Yu: "..."
"Okay, I admit that I've been a little slack lately." Xiao Yu reflected a little, then shirked responsibility and said, "No way, Invincible is just so lonely, and si's performance during this time is like sleepwalking, not an opponent at all. , all of a sudden, he has dominated S city, so, I feel that I have no motivation... "
Not just Xiao Xiaoyu, after the autumn press conference, the entire yl was filled with an overly relaxed atmosphere. As far as the design department is concerned, the draft rate in Xiao Yu's hands has been reduced by half compared to before. It's not like the level that a group at the top of S City should have.
"Si doesn't fall so easily, especially the Nan family."
Yan Jin is probably the only one who is still worried about the future despite such optimism.
Yan Jin saw Si's performance after the autumn press conference, and summed it up in four words, it was unsightly. Yan Jin can probably guess the main reason, except that Nan's family thought it was too easy to enter the jewelry industry and stumbled. In addition, there should be the bad influence caused by Nan Chan's incident, which made the Nan family too busy to take care of themselves and manage si.
The only thing he finds strange is that si seems to have been in a downturn for too long.
If all the above conjectures are correct,
Even considering the worst possibility for the Nan family, Yan Jin didn't feel that the Nan family needed such a long time to adjust. As the only super family that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Yan family, the Nan family wouldn't be able to even this point. None of the strength.
And another thing that lasted for a long time made Yan Jin's inner doubts gradually turn into worries.
Chugo lost contact.
Yan Jin never thought that the time he and Chu Ge parted ways in front of the ambulance would be the last time he saw Chu Ge—
In the two months after this incident, Yan Jin didn't even receive any news from Chu Ge, nor did she get any news from Chu Ge.
Probably something went wrong...
"Your phone is ringing!" Xiao Yu shouted in Yan Jin's ear.
Yan Jin was frightened, gasped and took a few steps back.
"What are you thinking, I've called you several times." Xiao Yu put the phone into Yan Jin's hand: "Your phone has been ringing for a long time and I haven't heard it, this dude is also persistent, he called the third one, whose call is it? "
Yan Jin picked up the phone and unlocked it, then subconsciously opened her eyes wide.
He stared at the screen for a long time, his expression remained the same, and he said calmly:
"Chugo's."
"It's him. It's really rare. I haven't been in touch for a long time. I don't know what I'm busy with. Say hello to him for me. By the way, I really like the wedding gift he gave later."
"Understood, you can continue to draw pictures, I will not affect you."
Yan Jin responded, walked into the lounge with her mobile phone, and locked the door behind her.
…
"Hello, which one?"
Yan Jin knew that Chu Ge had probably exposed his identity, so in order to prevent someone from taking Chu Ge's mobile phone to call him, he chose to be cautious when speaking.
"it's me."
The reply over there was quick, and the voice was a little low, and Yan Jin was still a little uncertain all of a sudden.
"It's me, Chugo, I have something to ask you."
After the sentence was a little longer, Yan Jin successfully recognized Chu Ge's voice, and then he was relieved, and started talking normally:
"How is Nanchan? Are you in good health?"
"It's okay. After a systematic diagnosis, consider the combination of drugs and physical therapy. If you rest well, it's not impossible to return to a normal person."
"It should be difficult to rest. After all, Nanchan is now the president of yl." Yan Jin complained casually: "If you want Nanchan to rest, I'm afraid you will be the one to wear it."
The other side was silent for a while, and when she spoke again, Yan Jin was so shocked that she couldn't hold the phone.
The phone fell all the way to the ground, making a dull bang, and the call ended.
But the last sentence from the microphone remained in Yan Jin's heart like an imprint.
"Would you believe me if I said that your next words will determine whether Nanchan can rest forever? In short, I believe it. I don't care about other things. I only ask one thing—"
"Do you know that Auntie Du didn't die, but lived in Shuixia Third Hospital for twenty years?"
Yan Jin knelt down to pick up her phone, and when she stood up, she suddenly felt that there were colorful hallucinations in front of her eyes.
Fortunately, this feeling quickly disappeared.
He clicked on the call that was accidentally ended just now, and called back.
"Sorry, I dropped my phone and ended up scratching myself."
"Ok."
Yan Jin took a deep breath, then slowly said:
"I know, I know it all, and you're right."
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, a flustered and disheartening silence.
