Chapter 364
She Is From The Countryside
?
364 Canât stand being teased
After dinner, they walked out of the dining room and qu Xuan asked Shi Yan, â âwhere is yanyan going? are you going back to the dormitory?â
Qu Xuan simply wanted to talk to Shi Yan.
the others stopped in their tracks and looked at shi yan in unison, especially su wan.
Shi Yan was about to say that she wasnât going back to the dormitory, but Jiang che seemed to have guessed what she was going to say and beat her to it. âiâll send her.â
He didnât say where he was going, only that he was sending Shi Yan off. But to the others, they subconsciously thought that he was sending Shi Yan back to her dormitory.
Shi Yan looked at Jiang che and smiled without saying anything.
only shi bozhen pouted at the side.
however, he was wearing a mask, so no one saw him.
Yanyan, I heard that youâre still staying at the Jiang familyâs house during the weekends. Do you need me to help you get a place to stay, or move to the SU familyâs house directly? â
Su Wan hesitated for a long time before she decided to ask.
Logically speaking, if she cared enough about Shi Yan, she could have arranged everything before telling her, instead of asking if she needed it. but now that su wan was facing shi yan, she no longer dared to make her own decisions, for fear of pushing shi yan further away.
Shi Yan wanted to refuse directly, but when she met su Wanâs expectant eyes and saw that su Wanâs eyes were slightly red, she swallowed her words.
â thereâs no need to prepare another room. aunt should still have the room i used to stay in the su family. you can just get someone to tidy it up. iâll stay there when iâm free. â
jiang che, who was standing beside shi yan, glanced sideways at her.
There was no emotion in his eyes, but Shi Yan saw an accusation.
shi yan quietly hooked his little finger to comfort him.
It was just tidying up the room, and she might not be staying there.
Only then did Jiang che look away from her.
Su Wan didnât notice the interaction between the two. She was a little surprised at first, but then she was overjoyed. âFine, I will have your room cleaned up when I get back!â
âyanyan, iâm sorry, iâm really sorry!â she said as she sniffed. you can blame me and hate me, but please donât ignore me, i really know i was wrong, yingluo!â
shi yanâs hand, which was originally wrapped around jiang cheâs finger, suddenly tightened its grip on his hand. jiang che could clearly feel the change in her mood.
Even if she didnât show it on her face.
a trace of displeasure flashed across jiang cheâs gentle and elegant face.
he didnât like su wanâs sudden mention of these things.
it just so happened that miss shiâs mental illness was here. it was not a solution to keep avoiding it. she had to face it and solve it. He hoped that miss Shi would live a happy life and not be troubled by anything in the future.
however, feeling that his hand was being held tightly, jiang che was still reluctant and said first, â âAuntie.â
Su Wan was interrupted by him.
âYanyan and I will be leaving first.â without waiting for su wanâs reply, he took shi yanâs hand and turned around to leave.
âJiang che.â Shi Yan did not leave with him.
shi yan smiled and shook her head when she met his loving gaze.
Jiang che immediately understood what she meant.
Indeed, she was not the type to run away from things.
Jiang che also knew that she wasnât as heartless as she appeared to be. She actually cared a lot about her family. Just like now, seeing her mother cry, her heart softened.
What could he do?
he could only go along with her.
he stopped in his tracks.
shi yan looked at su wan and said with a faint smile, â âmom, i donât blame you or hate you. of course, i wonât ignore you. it wasnât anyoneâs fault back then, so you donât need to feel guilty or blame yourself. Itâs all in the past. Iâve had a good life all these years. I didnât suffer any hardships, much less suffer.â
âi have to attend classes on weekdays, and i have a lot of work to do, so i might not have time to accompany you. if youâre still in haicheng on the weekends, iâll ask you out for dinner.â
it was a date, unlike the attitude a daughter would have towards her mother.
Which familyâs daughter would use the word âdateâ to eat with her mother?
âYou donât have to think too much. Thereâs nothing wrong with me being like this. If you really want to talk about it, Iâm actually glad that those things happened back then. Otherwise, I wouldnât have met grandma Jiang, and I wouldnât have stayed with the Jiang family for a short while. If I donât stay at the Jiang residence for a while, I might have missed Jiang che.â
thereâs a reason for everything that happens. I donât regret what Iâve done, and I hope you do the same.
âWeâll be leaving first, you should go back early.â
âYou too, second aunt,â he said to qu Xuan,âgo back and rest early.â
She nodded at Shi boxiao, held Jiang Cheâs hand, and turned to leave.
After the two of them had walked away, Shi boxiao said, â âFirst aunt, you shouldnât have said these words in front of Yanyan. Even if you want to express your apology, you should be more tactful. yanyan was sensible and looked like she could handle everything, but she was actually only nineteen years old. Other children at her age are usually pampered by their parents and elders.â
How could su Wan not understand this?
she just wanted to express her regret and apologize to her daughter seriously. she was the one who couldnât control her emotions and couldnât help but cry before she spoke, which made the atmosphere so depressing.
wiping away her tears, she forced out a smile. â âitâs first auntâs fault. iâve embarrassed myself. iâll be more careful in the future.â
â but boyun, yanyan said that she doesnât hate me, but she still hates me. sheâs so distant to me, like sheâs treating a stranger. â
of course, shi bozhen knew.
Not to mention them, even Yanyan was not as close to him as before.
âfirst aunt, a person who has done wrong should not be so greedy.â
after saying this, shi bozhen put on his sunglasses and left.
Su Wan was left sobbing, and qu Xuan was left to comfort her with red eyes.
not long after shi boxun left, he received a call from shi bochen.
She had originally wanted to ask Shi Jinlei to join her for this meal as he had already returned to the capital. Shi Boxun had contacted Shi Jinlei through Shi Bochen, so he knew that Shi Boxun and Shi Yan would be having lunch together this afternoon. He also knew that qu Xuan and su Wan would be there.
he was worried about shi yan, but he couldnât call her directly to ask, so he called shi bocheng.
Knowing that Jiang che was also there, Shi Bochen was relieved.
although she didnât feel good about it, she had to admit that with jiang che around, shi yanâs situation wouldnât be too bad.
âitâs still early, where do you want to go?â
jiang che asked shi yan in the car.
it was not even seven o âclock in the evening.
Shi Yan sat upright in the front passenger seat, looking straight ahead.
he was clearly not in the right state.
without hearing jiang cheâs words, he shouted again, â âMiss Shi?â
âwhatâs wrong?â she asked.
jiang che looked at her. â itâs still early. where do you want to go? â
âGo back to the apartment and read.â
With his hand on the steering wheel, Jiang che was a little helpless. âmiss shi, i thought i was already very boring, but i didnât expect you to be even more boring than me. if you want to have fun, you can go out and have some fun. just take it as a way to relax.â
âBut I donât want to go out and play. Whatâs wrong with reading at home? i can read books and accompany you.â
Jiang che,âYingluo.â
he was both helpless and touched.
How could she say something like accompany him? Didnât she know that he couldnât stand her teasing the most?
