Shen Peiran flipped through the address book to see if he could find Su Yan through whom. He wanted to sit down and have a good talk with her to admit his mistake. Because of Su Yan's personality, he was not very popular, and there were only two or three good friends. Two of them who can still talk to him are studying abroad now, so naturally they can't help them. In the end, his finger stayed on one name—Wan Yi.

Wan Yi is Su Yan's best friend, but she doesn't like him very much.

If it was in the past, Shen Peiran would definitely not take the initiative to contact her, but now he really has no choice but to call Su Yan and she won't answer, and he can't just rush the Jiang family to find her. The same, Shen Peiran hesitated for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and dialed Wan Yi's mobile phone number.

It took a while to answer the phone on the other end, and a distant and indifferent voice came, "Is there something wrong?"

Without even a title, Shen Peiran didn't care to be angry at the moment, and asked cautiously: "Wan Yi, it's me, I want to ask if you have been in touch with Xiao Yan recently?"

Wan Yi was busy with work, and when he heard this, he felt a little irritable, and his tone became colder, "No."

Shen Peiran was silent for a while, then continued: "Can I ask you to do me a favor?"

"I am very busy."

Shen Peiran directly blocked this answer, and said to himself: "I had some conflicts with Xiaoyan some time ago, I want to find a chance to explain it to her, can you help to talk to her?"

Wan Yi flipped through the file, lowered his eyelids, and put the file back in the drawer, his tone remained the same as before, without any ups and downs, "Mr. The level of troublemakers."

The words have already come to this point, no matter how thick-skinned Shen Peiran is, he is too embarrassed to continue, so he can only hang up the phone reluctantly, sitting on the sofa by himself, irritated, he never thought that one day he would even see Su Yan It's difficult, he hasn't had a good night's sleep in the past few days, he can't believe that Su Yan, who is gentle and considerate to him, will really stop talking to him one day, he really started to panic, because he has a kind of Already slowly losing her premonition.

At this time, Shen's mother opened the door with the key and got angry when she saw her son's dejected appearance. She put the ingredients she bought on the table, turned around and scolded: "What do you look like? The company is not going No, I’m just doing nothing at home all day! You go to work for me tomorrow!”

Father Shen planned to hand over a small company to Shen Peiran so that he could practice his skills. At first, Shen Peiran was eager to try, but recently because of Su Yan's incident, he didn't go to work, which made Father Shen very dissatisfied.

Shen Peiran directly blocked what Shen's mother said.

In fact, Shen's mother also knew about the matter between her son and Su Yan. She felt distressed seeing her son like this, so she sat down, her tone softened by more than one degree, and tried to persuade: "Of course, no matter how good Su Yan is." , she is already married, and you have been taking over the company for a while, don’t you know who the Jiang family is? It’s not easy to offend, even if Su Yan is not married, you are not suitable for her, this kind of truth Only your mother will tell you that you can't keep her."

Shen Peiran remained silent, with a stubborn expression on his face.

"Now that she's married, you should take care of yourself. Don't talk about others. Isn't Jiaqi very good? We grew up watching her. She is good in everything. What do you think?" Shen's mother now In his dreams, he hoped that there would be a woman who could win back Shen Peiran's heart, as long as it wasn't Su Yan.

Su Yanmei is beautiful, his son likes it, and others like it too. How can the Shen family compare to Jiang's family? If Jiang Jingchuan is angered one day, he will be able to feed the Shen family with a finger.

When Shen's mother mentioned Sun Jiaqi, Shen Peiran stood up excitedly, and her voice became much louder, "Mom, don't mention Jiaqi anymore, it's impossible for me to be with her, if it wasn't for her, I would be with Xiaoyan too It won't be like this!"

Shen Peiran's sanity has reached the edge now. He blames himself and everyone who caused him and Su Yan to become like this. He can't even help thinking that without Jia Qi, he and Su Yan wouldn't be together. Conflict, now he will not be so irritable.

"What does this have to do with Jiaqi?" Shen's mother said disapprovingly, "I heard from Jiaqi that she came to cook for you that day, and she didn't even know that Su Yan was here. By the way, don't be wronged." She, I gave Jiaqi the key."

It's okay not to mention this, but now Shen Peiran will explode every minute when this matter is mentioned, "How can it be such a coincidence that I don't come sooner or later, but I come at that time, Mom, I don't want to pursue this matter, but it doesn't mean I don't like it in my heart." clear."

It's not that he doesn't understand Jia Qi's thoughts, he didn't point it out because he was too lazy to deal with it before, and he also wanted to use her to anger Su Yan, now that Su Yan has been angered, how could he still pretend to be stupid like before. Someone once said that if a woman wants to hide from a man, it is very easy. In fact, it is not. This is only for the man who has love for the woman. If there is no love, it is very easy for a man. Just see through a woman's lies.

Mother Shen dotes on Sun Jiaqi very much. Hearing her son say this, she was originally protective of Jiaqi, but now she couldn't help but argue: "What do you mean? Even if you don't like Jiaqi, you We grew up together, like a brother and sister, how can you say that about her? Just because of Su Yan? Why don't you understand that Su Yan is already married!"

In Shen's mother's opinion, the married Su Yan is not as important as Jia Qi.

Shen Peiran didn't want to argue about this topic anymore, no matter how bad her mood was, she didn't want to quarrel with her mother. In the end, she could only say: "Even if I haven't been with Xiaoyan in my life, I won't be with Jiaqi, Mom, Don't talk about it in the future, Jiaqi can only be a younger sister anyway."

If he could be with Jiaqi, he would have been together long ago.

Shen's mother wanted to say something more, but seeing her son's ugly expression, she held back, and before leaving, she warned: "I must go to work tomorrow, your father is already very dissatisfied, it's not like you don't know, You are not the only heir to the Shen family, you can't love your children all day long, you have to shoulder the responsibilities of the family."

Shen's father was married twice, and had a wife before Shen's mother, but because his ex-wife was from a rural area, after Shen's father made a fortune, he didn't like his ex-wife very much, so he divorced cruelly, and his ex-wife still brought a child. I like Shen Peiran more, but in the end, the family property still has the share of his ex-wife and son.

Shen Peiran is still clear about the complicated family relationship, and immediately nodded seriously, expressing that he must go to work tomorrow.

Men are like this, no matter how depressed he is because of his relationship with Su Yan, the most important thing for him is his career.

Seeing her son like this, Shen's mother felt a lot more at ease, and decided to find an opportunity to chat with Su Yan later. From a woman's point of view, she felt that Su Yan was unlikely to divorce Jiang Jingchuan. If this is the case, don't delay in vain son. As long as Su Yan can be firmer, his son will naturally focus on his work again. The most urgent thing now is to fight for the right of inheritance, and everything else is empty.

In the afternoon, Su Yan was going to take a nap after watching a TV series, but suddenly a person came, who seemed to be a friend of the original body. Su Yan didn't dare to talk, so she asked Aunt Wang to prepare scented tea and small cakes, and sat down. On the sofa, Wan Yi carefully measured Su Yan, opened his lips and said, "You have changed."

Su Yan was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat.

Wan Yi pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and finally there was a smile on his face, "Xiao Yan, this is the first time I enjoy this kind of treatment."

In the past, Su Yan was also very kind to her. Every time she went out to play, she would bring her gifts. Su Yan was also very generous to her friends, but she was not so considerate in small details. This was the first time she would tell Jiang's aunt To prepare afternoon tea.

Su Yan just smiled and didn't speak.

After Aunt Wang brought the afternoon tea and left, Wan Yi lowered her voice and said, "Xiaoyan, did you quarrel with Shen Peiran? I worked overtime every day a few days ago, and I really don't have time to contact you. I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Su Yan picked up the cup and sipped the rose tea, lowering her head and smiling slightly.

Looking at the appearance of her best friend, Wan Yi also understands why such a proud Shen Peiran is willing to be the third party in a marriage. If she is a man, she also likes a woman like Su Yan. Thinking about the business today, Wan Yi Then he said seriously: "Xiaoyan, I didn't come to sow discord, but I told you from the very beginning, as long as you are single, I will support you to be with Shen Peiran, but now you are married, can you marry me?" It's not good for you, Mr. Jiang, including Shen Peiran."

Su Yan didn't continue to speak, Wan Yi carefully looked at her expression, she didn't look like she was going to be angry, so she continued: "I know you don't like to hear this, but it's really for your own good. Don't say anything else, let me ask you, when your family forced you to marry Mr. Jiang, did Shen Peiran say that he wanted to marry you?"

… Oh, I do not know. Su Yan thought so in her heart.

"He didn't, because he didn't want to get married at all. Of course, this is understandable. After all, he is not very old, but strictly speaking, he didn't make any efforts for your relationship. Now that you are married, no one I ask you to be faithful to Mr. Jiang, and no one is forcing you to fall in love with him, but you are Mrs. Jiang now, at least you should give Mr. Jiang some face. If you really can't make it through, you You can discuss divorce with him, and when you get divorced, you can stay with whoever you want, but you must not do wrong things when you are still Mrs. Jiang."

Wan Yi has said these words many times, but he is helpless, and Su Yan is very angry every time he hears it, and it is also because the contact between the two is much less now, but Wan Yi feels that no matter how unpleasant these words are No matter how hurt feelings, she still has to say it.

Because she is Su Yan's friend.

She hoped that Su Yan could listen to these words.

Su Yan has indeed listened to it now, she looks at Wan Yi again, and can't help but start to envy the original body, before in the harem, she didn't lack friends, most people wanted to curry favor with her, she knew this better than anyone else People are hypocritical. Yuanshen has such a friend. Although he speaks straightforwardly, the starting point is sincerely for the good of Yuanshen. Although loyal words are harsh, they are good for action. From the perspective of a bystander Well, what Wan Yi said is quite right. Indeed, if Su Yan gets divorced, she can stay with whomever she likes, and no one cares. But she is Mrs. Jiang for a day, and she has to abide by the laws of marriage.

"Actually, I have reconciled with Jiang Jingchuan, and we are really together." Knowing that this matter cannot be concealed, Su Yan decided to inquire some things from Wan Yi, and then think about how to deal with the relationship with Shen Peiran .

Shen Peiran is not going to disappear if she ignores it, this relationship has to be dealt with clearly, she knows that Shen Peiran will never let go just like this, so she has to think long-term and think of a better way, at least a way to get the best of both worlds.

When Wan Yi heard these words, she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, but now she couldn't utter a single word of the long speech she had prepared. She looked at Su Yan in disbelief, and asked, "What did you say?"

Su Yan nodded generously, "Well, he was drunk a few days ago, and then..."

She didn't continue talking, but Wan Yi understood.

This is what Su Yan thought. It was too quick for her to suddenly die with Shen Peiran and become a sweet couple with Jiang Jingchuan. Such a reason is believed to be easier for others to accept.

Wan Yi understood right away, after all, she was Su Yan's best friend, she naturally knew that Su Yan and Jiang Jingchuan were not worthy of their name as a couple, and she and Shen Peiran hadn't reached that level, now Su Yan and Jiang Jingchuan had cooked raw rice , it is not impossible to figure this out.

As a good friend, Wan Yi is still very happy. She doesn't mean that she doesn't like Shen Peiran, but that she doesn't want to see her good friend play with fire. Now that Su Yan can figure it out, Wan Yi is more relaxed when speaking, "Actually, Mr. Jiang is very good. , when I attended the wedding, I found out that he doesn't put on airs in front of your family and friends like us. This alone is very rare, Xiaoyan, I know what your family did makes you very sad , but I still believe that uncles and aunts are not people who don't care about their daughter's happiness, and they must also believe in Mr. Jiang's character to do so."

Su Yan didn't know how to respond to these words. She didn't know Yuanshen's family at all, so she couldn't evaluate who was right and who was wrong in this marriage.

It's just that Wan Yi is right in saying that Jiang Jingchuan's character can still be trusted. Su Yan has come into contact with so many people with evil intentions in the palace, she believes in her intuition.

"Shen Peiran called me today, saying that I had a conflict with you, and wanted to ask me to pass on a message to you. I felt something was wrong at the time. No, I came here after asking for leave in the afternoon, and I will go back to the company to work overtime later." Wan Yi I've been so busy during this time, if I wasn't worried about Su Yan, I wouldn't have asked for leave at all.

Su Yan actually had a headache when she heard this topic. She felt it was very troublesome, so she no longer concealed it from Wan Yi, and pretended to be distressed and said sadly: "It is impossible for me to be with him, but after all, we have known each other for a long time. I don't want to use too extreme a way to force him to let go."

Wan Yi thought that Su Yan had no more love for Shen Peiran after hearing the words, but it was understandable, after all, the two had such a good relationship, she lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "What are you going to do?"

Su Yan shook her head, her expression became even more tangled and confused, "I don't know either, Jiang Jingchuan knew about his relationship with me, but he said it's okay, but I can't meet Shen Peiran again in the future, I already promised him."

"It's true that we can't meet each other, Xiao Yan, I'm afraid you don't know how big and powerful the Jiang family is. If you offend Jiang Jingchuan, Shen Peiran will suffer too. Well, I'll have a meal with Shen Peiran another day when I have time. Talk to him." Wan Yi thought that the project of his department should be finished in this period, and he should have time to talk to Shen Peiran by then, whether it is useful or not, he has to try it.

Su Yan knows what she just said, Wan Yi will tell Shen Peiran, it just depends on whether Shen Peiran can accept it, but probably not.

If Shen Peiran is to let go, it will definitely hurt him, but she will not be with Shen Peiran. In this case, the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain. Shen Peiran is a good-looking talent, and his family background is not bad. Not to mention other things about his people, if Jiang Jingchuan was really angered, would Shen Peiran be able to handle it

If we won't be together, don't give people unreasonable hopes.

Su Yan was worried that Wan Yi would think that the reason she figured it out was purely because she had a relationship with Jiang Jingchuan, which she didn't want to see. If Shen Peiran felt that she was being forced, why would she come to Jiang Jingchuan in a fit of anger? manage? If this matter got to Jiang Jingchuan's ears, and if he also thought that the reason why he was willing to reconcile with him was because he had a relationship, what should he do

Thinking of this, Su Yan smiled all over her face, looking extremely happy, "Actually, it's not only because of the reason I just said, after being with Jiang Jingchuan, I began to realize that he is actually very good, and I still want to Continue to be his Mrs. Jiang."

She doesn't know what Shen Peiran is like, and she doesn't know how to make comparisons, but personally, Jiang Jingchuan is very attractive. Although his greatest charm comes from his wealth, it cannot be denied Yes, his self-cultivation also makes it easy to feel good about him.

As a rookie in the workplace, Wan Yi admires people like Jiang Jingchuan the most. She nodded solemnly, "Yes, Mr. Jiang is a very successful businessman."

"..." Su Yan didn't know how to answer.

Wan Yi stayed there for more than an hour before getting ready to leave. When she got up, she couldn't help hugging Su Yan, and whispered: "Xiao Yan, I know it's not easy for you, and I also understand that you can't marry someone you really like. I don't know how to help you, but I really hope that you are happier than anyone else, whether you want to be Mrs. Jiang or Mrs. Shen, I will support you."

Su Yan hugged her back vigorously, her expression and tone were very moved, "Well, thank you."

Well, she will be happy.

She will live the life she wants.

Su Yan called Aunt Wang and said, "Please ask the driver to take my friend to the company."

Wan Yi sat in the Jiang family's car, and was filled with emotion for a moment. Su Yan used to be a bit cold-tempered, a little ignorant and self-willed, but now he is so considerate about such small details. This is how he will change when he grows up. Do you have to be sensible? Wan Yi looked out the window, thinking silently in his heart, Xiao Yan must be happy.

When it was almost five o'clock, Su Yan got into the car to go to Jiang's old house. Aunt Wang still hadn't forgotten her mission. When she was approaching the supermarket, she asked the driver to stop and took Su Yan to the supermarket to buy sugar.

This is the first time for Su Yan to come to the supermarket, and she follows Aunt Wang closely, not daring to leave even a single step. There are not many people in the supermarket at this point, but Su Yan's appearance still attracts the attention of many people. I bought a lot of various flavors of Wangzai Candy, and the cashier was a little shocked when I checked out.

Orange, blueberry, pineapple…

There are all kinds of flavors, but Su Yan doesn't believe it. Could it be that there is no flavor that Jiang Jingchuan likes.

Aunt Wang hid all the candies tightly.

When Su Yan came to Jiang's old house, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were not at home, there were only two old people left at home, and the two elders were so happy to see Su Yan that they squinted their eyes together.

He also ordered the kitchen to cook Su Yan's favorite dishes immediately, and ordered to make Su Yan's favorite snacks.

Mrs. Jiang even held Su Yan's hand and refused to let go, "Look, I've lost weight, so I'll come here to eat in the future, you know?"

Su Yan was very puzzled, this old lady didn't even order the kitchen to cook her grandson's favorite dishes? It's completely unreasonable.

"Xiaoyan is even more tired if he runs around every day like this. How about this, let Mrs. Chen follow, she likes cooking Xiaoyan the most." Mrs. Jiang's enthusiasm is not inferior to that of the old lady. The chef used to take care of Su Yan.

Aunt Wang smiled when she heard this. She knew that the wife was the favorite of the elders, and now she was even more loved by the husband. If she gave birth to a boy and a girl, how comfortable would life be? As the person who takes care of his wife, she also has a bright face.

Su Yan was very anxious, not because of anything else, but because of the strange attitude of the second elder.

The kitchen started to prepare dinner, and Su Yan accompanied Mrs. Jiang to the room. Mrs. Jiang took out a rather heavy jewelry box from an antique cabinet with a smile on her face and handed it to Su Yan, saying lovingly: : "Although you have given you a set of jewelry when you got married, I still feel that it is not enough. It was given to me by my mother. I don't need it now. Do you like it?"

Su Yan's first reaction was to decline, but seeing the kind eyes of the old lady, she couldn't say the words of decline. She carefully opened the jewelry box. What jewelry hadn't she seen in the harem before? Just looking at the old lady's outfit, you can tell it's a good thing. It's completely different from the diamond necklace she wore at the dinner party last night. Just touching it feels full of aura.

"Grandma, I can't have this..." She didn't dare to want this, and she knew it was passed down from her ancestors.

The old lady Jiang smiled and narrowed her eyes. Even though the years are fleeting, the years have left marks on her face, but one can tell what the old lady Jiang looked like when she was young. The beauty looks pleasing even when she is old. "Xiaoyan, take it, this is for you, as long as grandma has it, as long as you want it, grandma will give it to you."

But Su Yan didn't know how to respond. Facing old lady Jiang's love and affection, Su Yan, who was used to seeing intrigues in the harem, didn't understand why old lady Jiang's love for the original body came from. Where did it come from.

Seeing that Su Yan still looked hesitant, Old Madam Jiang smiled even more happily, "I don't know how happy you are to marry into Jiang's family, Xiao Yan, this marriage was facilitated by grandparents, so we also I have to be responsible for your happiness, now that the relationship between you and Xiao Chuan is so good, I can rest assured that Xiao Chuan is someone worthy of entrustment."

Mrs. Jiang also said this last time, Su Yan felt strange at the time, and now she is even more at a loss.

Logically speaking, as a grandma, shouldn't she care more about her grandson? Why does she feel that both Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang seem to spoil her more? How is this going

"Actually, we hesitated before. We didn't know whether Xiaochuan was the right person. I watched Xiaochuan grow up since I was a child. His character is trustworthy. As long as you marry him, he will definitely take care of you for the rest of your life. " Mrs. Jiang looked at Su Yan, and the liking in her eyes was not fake.

Su Yan was stunned, she couldn't hear what she said, it didn't sound right, it seemed to mean that the second elder actually chose Jiang Jingchuan for her, not the granddaughter-in-law for his grandson? What does this mean? Why is it getting weirder

Although it seemed that she had already hugged the second elder's thigh tightly, Su Yan still couldn't recover.

On the other side, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother are on their way back. It's not that Jiang's mother does not know how her parents-in-law love her daughter-in-law. Although she is a little puzzled, she is not too angry. Xiao Yan is so good, better than me."

Although Mama Jiang is middle-aged, she has taken good care of her. What she said at this time seemed to be coquettish, and Papa Jiang couldn't stop laughing, "Why? Are you jealous?"

"Go away, you know that's not what I meant." No matter what, Jiang's mother would not be jealous of her daughter-in-law, she was just puzzled.

There was a very faint smile on Jiang's father's face, and he didn't directly answer Jiang's mother's question directly, "You don't need to ask about this, it's a good thing that parents like Xiaoyan."

Seeing that her husband still refused to answer, Mother Jiang stopped asking, and just laughed softly, "It's a good thing."
