"How can you talk like that, kid!" Ji Songlin scolded Ji Yunxin and then turned to Jian Yan and said, "Yanyan, don't mind it. Yunxin is just not good at speaking."
Jian Yan smiled. Ji Yunxin was still standing in front of her, staring at her with burning eyes, as if he wanted to get a result out of her.
Why is this person like this? Doesn't she know why she said that before? Did she say that on purpose for Ji Han to hear? Is it necessary to tease her like this now
Is that intentional
Why didn't I realize she had this side before
Jian Yan suddenly missed the silent Ji Yunxin. At least that kind of Ji Yunxin wouldn't make the current atmosphere awkward. She felt uncomfortable being stared at and gritted her teeth and said, "I don't mind."
Ji Yunxin nodded: "Let's go, I've arranged the car."
The bodyguards escorted Ji Songlin in front, and Jian Yan followed behind. Recalling the scene just now, she rolled her eyes. Ji Yunxin saw it when she turned her head. She was stunned for a few seconds, frowned, and still walked beside her with her head down.
Two cars were parked at the entrance of the private ward area. Ji Songlin was surrounded by bodyguards and got into the front car. Jian Yan followed behind him. Ji Songlin turned around and said, "Yan Yan, please take Yun Xin's car."
Jian Yan saw that his bodyguards had already gotten into the car, so she didn't know what to say, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Ji Yunxin's car door was open, and Jian Yan sat in the passenger seat. The car was filled with a faint scent of perfume, a familiar scent to Jian Yan. She had been bored for a while and had thought about making her own perfume, but she could never come up with such a refreshing scent, so she had to give up in the end. Now when she smelled this familiar scent, that memory came back to her mind.
Not very nice.
Jian Yan exhaled and turned to look out the window. The trees on both sides of the road were bare, with only a few dead leaves spinning in the air. The cold wind was howling, pedestrians were in a hurry, and there were a lot of vehicles. There was a traffic jam at every traffic light. She looked outside intently, and her cell phone beeped, indicating a message. She took it out of her bag and took a look. It was a message from Luo Jing: Are there any events today
She placed her bag on her knees and typed with both hands, "No, but I'm out."
Luo Jing replied quickly: Is there anything
Jian Yan: Well, it’s a personal matter.
As she replied to the message, she bit her lips lightly with her teeth and pressed the screen with both hands, with a serious expression. Ji Yunxin turned her head and saw her expression when she was waiting at the traffic light. It was no different from before. She used to be like this when she occasionally played with her phone in the car.
Sometimes when she sees something funny, she will come over with her phone in hand and say with a smile: "Yunxin, look at this, it's very funny!"
How did she respond then
She didn't seem to be interested in the contents of her phone at the time, but she could smell the fragrance when she got closer, which forced her to turn her head and look out the window.
The green light came on and the car behind him honked. Ji Yunxin came back to his senses, shifted gears, and stepped on the accelerator, all in one smooth motion.
It was still early when they arrived at the Ji family's house. The gate of the compound was open and Ji Songlin had already gotten out of the car. Jian Yan pushed open the passenger door and heard Du Yan shout, "Yan Yan."
She looked up and saw Du Yan coming towards her in a brown apron. She opened her mouth and called out, "Auntie."
Du Yan was obviously startled. After calling her mom for three years, anyone would be confused if she suddenly called her aunt. Ji Shuiquan pushed her. Du Yan smiled and said, "Come on, come in. Aunt Liu and the others are on holiday today. I will cook lunch for you myself."
Ji Shuiquan muttered: "I don't know if it's edible yet."
Du Yan glared at him, Ji Shuiquan held his breath, Jian Yan watched them interacting and shouted, "Uncle."
Ji Shuiquan sighed: "It's cold outside, come in and sit down."
The heater was on in the living room. Jian Yan took off her coat after entering. She was wearing a light pink sweater and slim jeans. Unlike the skirt and high heels she wore in the past, her outfit today made her look younger. She looked like a college graduate, full of vigor and vitality. Especially without makeup, her skin looked more transparent and hydrated. Du Yan accompanied her and said, "Sit down first. I'll go to the kitchen to add two more dishes."
Jian Yan followed her: "Let me help you."
In the past, when Aunt Liu went back to her hometown and Du Yan was traveling, she would come back to help Ji Songlin cook. Du Yan pulled her hand and said, "No, it's almost ready. You can sit for a while."
Jian Yan was pushed by her to sit on the sofa. She nodded and said, "Okay."
Ji Yunxin and Ji Shuiquan went to the study. Ji Songlin sat next to Jian Yan and asked, "Yan Yan, is it inconvenient for you to live with your friend? If it's not convenient, I will buy you a house?"
"No need." Jian Yan put her hands on her legs and said calmly, "Grandpa, thank you for taking care of me over the years. I'm not a child anymore. I should have my own life and shouldn't bother you anymore."
"What do you mean by disturbing us?" Ji Songlin put his crutches on the edge of the sofa and said seriously, "You are a member of our Ji family. I know that you and Yun Xin are divorced and you are a little unhappy now, but the door of the Ji family is always open to you. You can come back whenever you want. We are all your relatives. Don't you want Yun Xin or Grandpa?"
After Jian Yan's parents left, she was taken to the Ji family and enjoyed meticulous care. They gave her the best. Ji Songlin always felt guilty about her, thinking that he was the one who caused her parents to lose their lives. In fact, this was her parents' choice. If it were her, she would have done the same without hesitation. So she never blamed Ji Songlin. On the contrary, she has always been grateful to the Ji family.
She knew that it was impossible for her to completely break off with the Ji family, so she came today to make things clear for Ji Yunxin. Jian Yan thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, I know you are good to me. I will come back to see you often in the future. Let's let the past go and don't mention it anymore."
Ji Songlin felt a little sad when he heard her words. He sighed and said, "Good boy, you have suffered."
"I didn't suffer much." Jian Yan said with red eyes: "You, Auntie, Uncle, and Xiaohan, you are all so kind to me. I can't thank you enough in my heart, so how could I suffer?"
"Yun Xin..."
Jian Yan interrupted him and said, "Yun Xin is also very good. We are not destined to be together. This is how it should be."
Ji Songlin saw that her face was very calm when she mentioned the word Yun Xin. There was no nostalgia for the past in her eyes. She was like a clear spring, clean and pure, but without any emotion. He nodded and said, "Have you really let it go?"
Jian Yan nodded: "I really let it go."
"That's fine." Ji Songlin sighed, "Yun Xin is not so lucky."
Jian Yan smiled but said nothing. Ji Songlin said, "Go back to your room and check. We divorced in such a hurry. See if there is anything you left behind."
Jian Yan had not been to the Ji family since her divorce. She did not even take anything from the apartment, so how could she take anything from here? But since Ji Songlin had said so, she did as he said. She stood up and said, "Then I'll go up and take a look."
"Go ahead."
The wedding room was converted from her guest room. She had been living in the guest room since she came to the Ji family. Later, after they got married, Ji Songlin was afraid that she would not be used to it, so he specially converted her guest room into a wedding room. It was originally to accommodate her, but who knew that they moved into the apartment not long after living there.
Jian Yan didn't come to the Ji family very often after her marriage. Usually, she would only come and stay for two days when Ji Songlin said he was not feeling well. She remembered that Ji Yunxin would come back at the beginning, but later she found out that Ji Songlin was just faking his illness, so she stopped coming back. She knew that Ji Yunxin didn't like this wedding house, and she still remembered that one night at the beginning of this year, they slept in the same bed, and Ji Yunxin got up and drove away in the middle of the night. In the second half of the night, she touched the person next to her and it was cold. Later, she kept her eyes open until dawn.
The room was still the same as when she left. Although it was spotless, it was lifeless. She walked to the cupboard and pushed open the door. Inside, there were still many dolls as before. When Ji Yunxin had just gotten married and didn't come home, she slept alone and felt her bed was empty, so she bought these dolls and held them when she slept at night, pretending that there was someone around her. Later, when she moved to the apartment, she put these dolls away and didn't use them anymore.
After closing the cabinet door, Jian Yan touched the curtains again. She had carefully selected them, and after choosing them, she was excited to tell Ji Yunxin about them. However, she didn't see Ji Yunxin until the wedding day.
At that time, she was blinded by her feelings, and thought that Ji Yunxin would always see her efforts and would always respond to them. However, she didn't know that feelings are the most unequal existence. If you like someone, you like them, and if you don't like someone, you don't like them.
Fortunately, she understands it now and it is not too late.
Jian Yan lingered in the room without taking anything. The window was half open, and the cold wind blew in. She had a high ponytail, and the ends were blown up by the wind. Ji Yunxin walked out of the study and passed by the bridal chamber and saw that the door was open. She stood at the door and looked inside, and saw Jian Yan sitting by the bed, looking out the window, with a calm look and an indifferent expression. She shouted downstairs: "Yunxin, call Yanyan down to eat."
Ji Yunxin walked in and said, "Miss Jian, it's time to eat."
Jian Yan stood up quickly when she saw Ji Yunxin coming in. She stood up too quickly and felt dizzy for two seconds. She took a step back and sat down heavily on the bed. Ji Yunxin looked at her. Jian Yan's face turned pale for a moment and her body swayed. She held onto the bedside table, with the meridians on the back of her hand bulging. Ji Yunxin walked over to her and asked, "Are you okay?"
Jian Yan looked up and replied to her: "It's okay, I just have a little hypoglycemia, I'll be fine after a rest, Mr. Ji, please go down first."
She has always had a problem with hypoglycemia, and the Ji family knows it.
Ji Yunxin's hands hung at her sides, her expression a little stiff. She said slowly, "I'll wait for you."
Jian Yan was too lazy to say anything else to her. She took two deep breaths, and her disordered heartbeat returned to normal. The paleness on her face faded and some color returned. Ji Yunxin was standing beside the bed, and when she lowered her eyes, she saw the bed where Jian Yan was sitting.
In fact, she rarely slept in the same bed with Jian Yan, and the number of times was very few. It snowed heavily at the beginning of the year and several roads were closed. She was supposed to go back to the company for a meeting in the evening, but she received a notice from her partner that the flight was suspended and she could not arrive on time. The meeting was cancelled, so she did not leave at night. Jian Yan went to bed first after washing up. She stood for a while and then fell asleep beside her. It was cold at night. Even if the heating was on in the room, Jian Yan would still snuggle into her arms. It was really cold. He was not trying to seduce her, but she was still tempted by the cold and faint fragrance, the delicate skin, the beautiful face close to her in the moonlight, the soft breathing, the ambiguous entanglement. She did not hug Jian Yan, but just stood there motionless, but her body began to feel hot unconsciously.
The hotter she got, the more Jian Yan loved to rub against her. The thin pajamas couldn't block the temperature of her body. Jian Yan even muttered her name in her sleep, saying, "Yun Xin, I'm cold."
She almost made a mistake when she heard this.
Later she left in a hurry in the middle of the night.
Ji Yunxin still felt uncomfortable when she recalled that night. She thought of Jian Yan rubbing against her and yelling "Yunxin, I'm cold" that night, her facial features close in front of her, and her delicate skin that touched her, and she felt very uncomfortable. Ji Yunxin said, "I'll go downstairs first, come down after you've rested."
Jian Yan nodded: "Okay."
After she went downstairs, Jian Yan looked at her back. She really hated this room. Even though they were divorced, she still didn't want to stay here for a moment longer.
Jian Yan rested for a few minutes and then left the bridal chamber when she felt it was about time. She did not take anything, but just stood at the door and looked inside deeply. It seemed that she was not saying goodbye to this room, but to the memories of the past.
After going downstairs, Du Yan had already served all the dishes. They sat at the dining table. Jian Yan walked over and said with a smile, "Sorry, I kept you waiting for so long."
Du Yan smiled: "It's okay, is there anything you missed? If there are a lot of things, I'll ask the driver to deliver them to you."
Jian Yan waved her hands quickly: "No, I took them all away."
Ji Shuiquan coughed: "Okay, let's stop talking about that and eat."
Du Yan came back to her senses: "Eat, eat."
The meals were all prepared by Du Yan, and the taste was very different from the ones cooked by the aunt at home. She didn't cook very often, so the dishes she made didn't look good, but they tasted basically edible. But she just liked to tinker with cooking, so she would cook for them every time she came home, and she wouldn't allow anyone to say that the food was bad, so Ji Shuiquan would always ridicule her. The old couple were like a young couple, and they would quarrel every time they ate. Jian Yan listened to their familiar quarrels and laughed for no reason.
Marriage really has many faces. Some are like her and Ji Yunxin in the past, like strangers, and some are like Du Yan, stumbling and quarreling. She smiled and lowered her eyes. Du Yan said, "Yan Yan, what are you laughing at?"
Jian Yan bit her rice and said, "Nothing, I just think you and uncle have a really good relationship." She swallowed her food and said, "In the future, I also want to find someone who can argue with me."
Her words made everyone's expressions change. In fact, although Du Yan and Ji Songlin said that they didn't care about them, they still wanted to bring them together in their hearts, especially Du Yan. She specially asked Ji Yunxin to pick up Ji Songlin from the hospital today, just thinking that she might meet Jian Yan. She deliberately arranged this, but Jian Yan said that she wanted to find someone who could argue with her in the future.
This directly announced that Yun Xin was out.
After all, Yun Xin is not talkative by nature, and everyone knows that.
Jian Yan didn't look at the crowd after she finished speaking. She lowered her head and took a sip of the soup, then smiled and said, "Auntie, the soup is delicious."
Du Yan glanced at Ji Songlin and saw him shaking his head, so she could only smile and say, "It's delicious. Drink more. I'll get you another bowl?"
Jian Yan said hurriedly: "No, I can do it myself."
Du Yan pushed Ji Yunxin beside her and said, "Help Yanyan get a bowl of soup. It's not right for a guest to serve his own soup."
Ji Yunxin stood up as usual, took Jian Yan's bowl and said, "Let me do it."
Her fingers touched Jian Yan's fingertips, and Jian Yan subconsciously shrank back and loosened her hand. Ji Yunxin held the bowl and her eyes caught Jian Yan's movements. Her face darkened and she walked to the kitchen to serve Jian Yan a bowl of soup. Jian Yan lowered her eyes: "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
The tone was cold and hard.
After lunch, Jian Yan said she wanted to go back. Du Yan wanted to have a good chat with her, but Jian Yan's meaning was very clear during the meal, that is, there was no hope for her and Ji Yunxin, so Du Yan couldn't say anything else, so she had to say: "Okay, then you go back and be careful."
Ji Songlin said, "Yunxin, aren't you going to work? Send Yanyan home so that I don't have to worry about her taking a taxi."
Du Yan agreed, "Yes, Yunxin, you can send Yanyan back by the way. Yanyan, if you need anything, just call me or grandpa. You're welcome. I heard from grandpa that you've made a comeback. If you don't have the resources, just tell Yunxin."
Jian Yan laughed dryly: "Okay."
"Don't be embarrassed, we are all family." Du Yan pulled her hand and said, "Although you and Yun Xin are divorced now, if you are not lovers, then you can be friends. If you have any problems, just go to Yun Xin directly. If she doesn't cooperate, tell me."
Jian Yan gritted her teeth and said, "Okay."
After finally getting out of the Ji family's house, Jian Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Du Yan and the others seemed to still think that she was not divorced, and gave her many instructions. Although the topic changed from the two of them to her work, Jian Yan did not reject such instructions, and even liked them a little. She had no relatives, and had long regarded the Ji family as her own relatives, so she listened carefully to their instructions every time, and her heart was warm every time she came out of the Ji family.
The two got in the car together. After Jian Yan told her the location, Ji Yunxin turned on the navigation. They were silent all the way. When they arrived at Gu Cai's house, Jian Yan said, "Mr. Ji, do you want to get off and sit for a while?"
Ji Yunxin looked at her with some surprise, as if she had not expected that she would invite him. Jian Yan's brows relaxed and she said, "I have something to say to you."
"good."
Ji Yunxin parked the car in the garage, and the two of them entered the apartment together. It was unclear whether Gu Cai hadn't woken up yet or had gone to the bar, so the living room was empty. After opening the door, Jian Yan bent down and got Ji Yunxin a pair of new slippers, and the two of them entered the room one after the other.
Gu Cai's apartment is quite large, with many rooms and luxurious decoration. Ji Yunxin had heard of Gu Cai's name from Jian Yan, but this was the first time he visited her. Jian Yan said to Ji Yunxin, "Please sit down."
Ji Yunxin sat on the sofa. Her sitting posture was very standard. Unlike Gu Cai who sat in a messy position and did whatever was comfortable for her on the sofa, Ji Yunxin sat upright with her back straight. She wore a neat little suit with straight sleeves. She crossed her legs with her hands, and was serious. She had an outstanding temperament and was a little out of place in this house.
Jian Yan went to the kitchen to boil some water, and when she came out she saw Ji Yunxin sitting upright. In the past, she liked every feature of Ji Yunxin, her every move, whether she was sitting or standing, happy or unhappy, she liked it all. Even though her expression rarely changed in front of her, she still enjoyed it. At that time, her eyes were all on Ji Yunxin, and she couldn't move them away at all, but it was different now.
Jian Yan walked over with two cups of boiled water. She placed one cup on the coffee table in front of Ji Yunxin and held another cup in her arms. The warm feeling spread from the cup wall to her palms and then to her body. Ji Yunxin asked, "What do you want from me?"
Jian Yan took a sip of water to moisten her throat and said, "Boss Ji, I know this is a bit too much and a bit unreasonable, but I hope you can just forget about the mistakes I made in the past three years, or just forget about me as a person."
In Ji Yunxin's heart, Jian Yan has always been a representative of intelligence. Her manners and conversation are very elegant. Ji Yunxin never thought that one day she would hear these words from Jian Yan's mouth: You treat me like a piece of shit.
It sounds weird no matter how you listen to it.
She didn't say anything. Jian Yan seemed to know that she wouldn't reply and continued, "You saw what happened today. I will definitely go to the Ji family in the future, and I will inevitably meet you to avoid embarrassment. So I hope that I can make some things clear to you now."
Ji Yunxin seemed to be nonchalant and asked, "What?"
Jian Yan said, "Let's just pretend that nothing has happened in the past three years, okay? You continue to be Mr. Ji, and I'm just an artist under you. I'll explain to grandpa and aunt that you don't need to take any special care of me. If possible, just continue to pretend that you don't know me."
"Don't worry, I will do the same."
"May I?"
Ji Yunxin pursed her lips, is it okay
There's nothing wrong with it. After a divorce, it's only natural for each to go their separate ways. However, Jian Yan and her family are in special circumstances, so they will inevitably meet in the future. She's right. To avoid embarrassment, it's a good thing to make things clear now.
But why did she feel like her heart was blocked
Ji Yunxin felt very strange about the change in her mentality. Now, for her, it was already the best outcome. She and Jian Yan were divorced, and she didn't have to carry those burdens anymore. Jian Yan even clearly hoped that she would treat what happened in the past three years as if it had never happened, which meant that Jian Yan had really let it go. It was obviously a happy thing, but she just couldn't be happy and felt depressed.
Jian Yan looked at Ji Yunxin's expression and whispered, "Boss Ji?"
"Boss Ji, what do you think?"
Her tone was full of respect and her attitude was distant, completely different from her shy attitude when she saw her before. Ji Yunxin turned her head to look at her and said coldly: "Just do as you say, I have no objection."
Jian Yan looked relieved, her eyebrows were happy, and the mole at the corner of her eye seemed to reveal her happiness. She took the initiative to extend her hand and said, "Thank you, President Ji."
No one responded to her outstretched hand, and Jian Yan didn't care. Just as she was about to take it back, Ji Yunxin held her hand.
Jian Yan had been holding the cup, her palms were warm, but Ji Yunxin's hands were freezing cold. She held Jian Yan's hand tightly, then let go after a few seconds. Jian Yan stood up and said, "Let me take you out."
Ji Yunxin lowered his eyes: "No need."
Jian Yan didn't say anything polite and nodded, "Okay, take care."
Ji Yunxin: …
After Jian Yan talked with Ji Yunxin, she felt relaxed. Any remaining thoughts she had from before were shattered by the river. Now she had different expectations for the future, which had nothing to do with Ji Yunxin. This feeling was so damn good!
She had just punched the pillow twice in joy when her cell phone rang. Jian Yan looked over and saw it was Su Ziqi calling. She quickly picked up the phone, "Sister Su."
Jian Yan's voice was filled with joy.
Su Ziqi asked, "Are you at home?"
Jian Yan: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Su Ziqi explained: "Writer Luo has changed the script. Now it's a new script. If you're at home, she'll deliver it on the way."
"Now?" Jian Yan stood up: "I'll go get it from her."
She had already troubled Luo Jing so many times, and she felt embarrassed to bother her again. Su Ziqi said, "No need. She is discussing something at your house. I have sent her the address. She will call you when she arrives."
Hearing this, Jian Yan had no choice but to say, "Okay, then I'll call her first and ask her where she is."
Su Ziqi hummed: "See you tomorrow."
Jian Yan agreed: "See you tomorrow."
She hung up and called Luo Jing. Luo Jing was outside, the wind was howling. Jian Yan asked, "Where are you?"
Luo Jing carried her bag and said, "I'm almost at your door. Are you home?"
Jian Yan hurried to the entrance to change her shoes, opened the door and went out: "I'm here."
She stood at the door and looked up to see Luo Jing approaching. Jian Yan waved at her, "Writer Luo."
Luo Jing was freezing cold from the wind. When she heard the voice, she looked up and saw Jian Yan standing at the door. She also raised her hand.
Ji Yunxin drove out of the garage and subconsciously looked towards Jian Yan's door, and saw Jian Yan and Luo Jing smiling at each other. She stepped on the brake, rolled down the window, and suddenly heard a sound in her ears.
Mr. Ji, please just forget about the mistakes I made in the past three years, or about who I am as a person.
Ji Yunxin leaned back in her chair while holding the steering wheel. She realized that she was not very happy about the fart.
The author has something to say: Thirty random red envelopes, muah.
Ji Yunxin: What’s going on? I feel uncomfortable now.
Doctor: Where does it hurt
Ji Yunxin: I feel uncomfortable all over, my chest is stuffy and sometimes it hurts. Am I sick
Doctor: I’m not sick.
Ji Yunxin: What disease
Doctor: Lovesickness.
Ji Yunxin: …
