Chapter 356
She Is From The Countryside
?
356 it is the son-in-lawâs credit
It was the SU familyâs chauffeur who had driven su Wan over. The car was parked not far away.
the two of them got into the car and left.
sitting in the back seat, su wan seemed a little nervous compared to shi yanâs calmness. In addition to being nervous, she was also a little happy to sit so close to Shi Yan.
even though she tried her best to hold it in, she still couldnât help but wipe her tears silently.
It was tears of joy.
shi yan looked straight ahead, as if he didnât notice her secretly wiping her tears. in fact, if one looked closely, they would find that shi yanâs hands, which were placed on her legs, were tightly clenched.
su wan sobbed softly. she was probably afraid that she would affect shi yanâs mood if she continued to cry like this, so she quickly held it in and stopped crying.
âI heard from your aunt that you have a teacher?â she said with a fake smile.
âYes.â
shi yan sat up straight, her left hand resting on her right wrist as she stroked the white jade bangle that jiang che had given her, as if it could calm her down.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
â heâs our academyâs vice president and a history professor. heâs a very knowledgeable person and also a very respectable senior. â
she was just telling the truth, but su wan had mixed feelings when she heard her introduce her.
Heâs a very respectable elder, Yingluo.
This made her feel very ashamed as a mother.
they were all elders, but they, as true relatives, were not even comparable to an outsider.
âi used to study at haicheng university. professor li bingfeng came to teach at haicheng university when i was in college. after that, i taught at haicheng university for a year and could be considered colleagues with professor li. at that time, professor li was still young. although he didnât achieve as much as he does now, he was still a young and successful man.â
â after so many years, his contributions to the academic world canât be summed up in one word. itâs good that you can be his disciple. you can learn a lot from professor li. â
if she had come to haicheng a few days earlier, she would have been able to attend yanyanâs apprenticeship banquet.
he heard from yun zhi that the apprenticeship banquet was prepared by yanyan with great care. It was such a serious ceremony, but none of them, as parents, were present. They felt regretful and ashamed.
âi heard from your aunt that youâve applied for a masterâs degree and phd. will you be under a lot of pressure? Youâre still young, and youâre not in a hurry to graduate. You donât have to put so much pressure on yourself.â
âI donât want to waste too much time in school.â Shi Yan said honestly.
he looked at su wan. â donât worry. i know what iâm doing. itâs within my ability to handle it. â
I donât want to waste too much time in school, Yingying.
this didnât seem like something she would say.
as a mother, she knew very well how outstanding her daughter was, but when she was young, she could have skipped a few grades, but she refused to do so.
Her daughter did not care much about these things since she was young. In her opinion, she could live any kind of life, and she would never force herself too hard.
But now, she was in a hurry to graduate.
âwhat do you want to do with your free time?â
The next second, Shi Yanâs answer shocked su Wan.
âiâm here to accompany my boyfriend,â she said.
âiâd rather spend my time with him than waste it in school.â
she could read books anywhere.
to her, she could learn anywhere.
however, academic qualifications were still necessary. she still had to look for a job after graduation. she couldnât just sit around and do nothing for the rest of her life.
it was just that she would find a job that was relatively free and had more free time.
If she really didnât do anything after graduation, it would be a waste for professor li to take her as a disciple. Professor li would probably fall out with her directly.
su wan couldnât react for a long time when she saw the smile on su qianxunâs face.
Boyfriend?
After a long while, su Wan suppressed the shock in her heart and asked, â âyou, yanyan, you have a boyfriend?â
shi yan smiled and nodded.
âWhere did you ask him to come from? Is he your classmate? how long have you two been together? how long have you known each other?â
Seeing Shi Yan look at her with a faint smile, su Wan quickly suppressed her excitement.
It was as if a basin of cold water had suddenly been poured on her, and she was completely awake.
they had only met after so many years. she should be satisfied that her daughter was willing to see her. however, she was still questioning her when her daughter was so distant from her. what was she thinking? What if his daughter was disgusted, Yingluo?
Su Wan felt very upset and bitter.
if it werenât for what happened back then, she wouldnât have dared to ask about her daughterâs relationship.
Even if she couldnât interfere, as a mother, it was completely understandable for her to care about these things. Her daughter would definitely not care about it, and she would not be disgusted by her.
It was all their own doing!
â you donât have to say it if you donât want to. you donât have to force yourself. iâm not trying to question you, and iâm not trying to interfere with you making friends. iâm just curious about what kind of boy you like. â
âI know,â shi yan said.
âheâs an outstanding person,â yanran said with a smile.
âheâs from the capital, not my classmate. heâs a few years older than me and graduated very early. We havenât known each other for long, but weâve been together for quite some time.â
Shi Yan was not surprised that su Wan did not know about Jiang Cheâs existence.
It wasnât difficult for the Shi family to find out about this information. Su Wan didnât have this information, and the Shi family was watching over her. Su Wan didnât know much about her, and the Shi family wouldnât tell su Wan anything about her.
Hearing her words and seeing her expression when she spoke, su Wan could tell that she cared about that boy.
She really liked that boy.
of course, if she didnât like him very much, with yanyanâs personality, she wouldnât say that she felt that it was a waste of time in school and would rather spend the time with him.
But he still felt emotional.
in her memory, she was still a ten-year-old girl, but now she had grown up and had someone she liked.
Su Wan was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses and said, â âThe person you like is definitely not bad.â
âA person from the capital? Is it someone mom knows?â
âI donât think you know him.â but he must have heard of it.
shi yan didnât finish the second half of the sentence.
âi donât know him.â the possibility of him being a junior in the industry was not high.
âShould we find a time to introduce him to mom?â
sure. I have an appointment with second aunt and second brother for lunch tomorrow afternoon. Iâll bring him along. You can come over too, mom.
âsecond aunt? Didnât your second aunt go on a trip? When did you come to Haicheng?â
Qu Xuan naturally had to find an excuse to leave the Shi family.
The excuse she came up with was that she was traveling with her friends.
su wan didnât know that she had come to haicheng.
âIâve been here for a few days,â
âyour second brother yingluo is willing to meet the family?â
su wan felt like she was talking nonsense.
bo xun ran away from home because of yanyan. he cared so much about his sister, yanyan. as long as yanyan asked, how could he not meet his family?
Su Wan felt both guilty and grateful towards Shi poxun.
She felt guilty that he had given up his wealth and status to run away from home for her daughter at such a young age, but she was also grateful for his care for her daughter.
If it wasnât for Shi Bozhenâs nine years of trouble and not compromising, even if the second branch regretted forcing her daughter to leave home back then, they wouldnât have ended up like this. when her daughter returned to the shi family, she was afraid that she would not be able to do whatever she wanted and no one would force her.
Even if the power was in her brotherâs hands, no one could force her. From time to time, someone would appear and interfere in her Affairs, which would also make her daughter upset.
su wan didnât want what happened back then to happen, but she had to admit that she felt that things were fine now.
even she, as a mother, could not ask about her daughterâs matters, so who else could?
You canât ask about it, and you canât interfere.
this was good.
without waiting for shi yan to answer, su wan said, â âIâll go with you tomorrow afternoon.â
âThe person you have an appointment with is that boy?â
yes, I had planned to have lunch with him.
âDid he treat you well? whatâs your job?â
âheâs very good to me.â It couldnât be better.
â as for work, i guess iâm a doctor. â
arenât medical geniuses also doctors?
There was nothing wrong with that.
âdoctor? Good day, doctor!â
at this point, su wan suddenly froze. she looked at shi yan and said, â âi remember that the disciple adopted by your fourth grandmother inherited her legacy. heâs a doctor and has the title of divine doctor in the industry. After your fourth grandmother passed away, youâve been living with him, right?â
Shi Yan understood what she meant even without her asking.
The corner of his mouth twitched unnoticeably.
âmom, i havenât known him for long.â
Thatâs right, she had just said that.
Su Wan smiled in embarrassment. I misunderstood you. I thought the boy you like is the disciple your fourth grandmother adopted.
â brother su chen is just an older brother. â
su chen must have been very good to her since she sincerely called him brother.
Su Wan was grateful and happy that Shi Yan had someone who treated her sincerely all these years, even though she knew that su chen often traveled around the world and rarely stayed in the country after he finished self-study.
âDid you two meet in Sea city?â
su wan realized that since the topic involved that boy, shi yan was more than happy to talk about it, so she couldnât help but ask more.
âYes.â
âHe works in Haicheng?â
âYingluo can be considered.â
âYou guys have an appointment for lunch. Is the restaurant you booked nearby? was he nearby now? do you want to call him over for dinner?â
âHeâs indeed nearby, but I wonât call him over. Iâll bring him to see you tomorrow.â
......
They asked and answered questions along the way to the restaurant.
Su Wan knew her limits and asked simple questions. Shi Yan answered all her questions, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
it was much better than su wan had expected.
she had thought that even if shi yan was willing to meet her, the atmosphere would be very depressing and they would feel uncomfortable together.
he didnât know that the current harmonious atmosphere was all due to his future son-in-law.
If Jiang che had not given Shi Yan a heads-up beforehand and comforted her, allowing her to be mentally prepared and adjust her mood, this would definitely not have happened.
Even with Shi Yanâs personality, she cried silently for more than an hour and fell asleep before she could vent her emotions. And that was with Jiang Cheâs company.
One could imagine how Shi Yan would react when she suddenly saw su Wan and recalled the past without Jiang che by her side.
it definitely wasnât as simple as being stunned on the spot.
they wouldnât be so harmonious.
after dinner, su wan sent shi yan to her dormitory.
after her car left, shi yan looked at the car parked not far away downstairs.
It was Jiang Cheâs car.
