A financial crisis swept through, forcing Yan Mo to return home for a blind date. What? Over thirty and still unmarried? Is he a complete straight man? A fake marriage to fool grandpa? Is that some...
Hearing this, sadness was hidden deep in A Biao's eyes. He raised his head slightly and glanced at Yan Jing opposite him.
What will she choose? Will she really not return to Mocheng?
Thinking of this, he felt sad. He originally thought that there was a huge river between him and her, but as long as he tried his best to swim across, there would at least be that impossible hope. Now it seems that what is separating them is simply the Milky Way, with an invisible end, and they cannot reach their destination.
At this moment, Yan Jing seemed to sense something and turned her head inconspicuously to look at A Biao.
The two looked at each other, and A Biao panicked. He quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head again, as if what had just happened had never happened. But only A Biao himself knew that at this moment, his heart was like an uncontrollable little rabbit, as if it could jump out at any time, and his face turned slightly red.
Yan Jing saw this and a barely perceptible smile flashed across her eyes, which she didn't even notice. Then, she withdrew her gaze and turned her attention back to the topic being discussed.
After finishing the midnight snack, it was already past three in the morning. Since Yan Jing lived in a dormitory in Jinzhou, it was definitely inappropriate to take Tangtang there so late. She hadn't seen her daughter for so long, and she naturally didn't want to be separated from her daughter. Finally, she asked the tutor to go back first, and she stayed to accompany her daughter and Yan Mo.
After Zhuo Fan left, they returned to the VIP room on the top floor.
When he opened the door, Yan Mo was very surprised:
"Jingjing, how did you know I would bring Tangtang here? And even prepared a double room in advance?"
Yan Jing replied naturally, "Of course, my sister is the best to me. She naturally knows what I want and will definitely bring Tangtang with her."
"There's also me, Mom. I love Mom the most too," Tangtang interjected appropriately.
After the little guy's interruption, Yan Mo and Yan Jing no longer dwelled on this issue, and they both laughed:
"Yes, yes, and my Tangtang..."
Afterwards, it was too late and Yan Mo was so sleepy that he fell asleep as soon as he got into bed. Tangtang did the same. When Yan Jing was getting ready to go to bed, her cell phone happened to ring. She quickly pulled out her arm that was used as a pillow for her daughter, reached out and immediately turned the phone to silent mode. She glanced at Yan Mo who was sleeping soundly on the bed outside, and walked towards the bathroom.
She went to the bathroom, closed the door gently, and answered the phone after everything was done.
"Yan Jing, has your sister arrived?"
The caller was Si Ze, who had already gotten off the highway and was speeding towards the hotel.
"I'm already here and just went to bed." Yan Jing replied. After a pause and thinking about it, Yan Jing decided to ask the question she wanted to know most.
Si Ze did not give a direct answer:
"I'm driving now. It's hard to explain this matter right away. Let's talk about it when we meet." Then he hung up the phone.
Dozens of minutes later, Si Ze arrived at the hotel entrance. The hotel manager personally greeted him and respectfully led him to the floor where Yan Mo lived.
Si Ze came to the door of the room, but instead of ringing the doorbell, he took out his cell phone and called his sister-in-law.
After a while, Yan Jing opened the door, and Si Ze instinctively wanted to see his wife sleeping inside.
Yan Jing didn't give him any chance at all. After walking out, she closed the door mercilessly.
She stood in front of Si Ze and looked at him with scrutiny.
Only then did Si Ze realize the change in his sister-in-law. Her eyes clearly showed that she would not let him see her sister without a clear explanation.
In the end, Si Ze could only tell Xiao Lin exactly what happened at her house.
It turned out that he had gone to Zhenghong to handle urgent official business today. When he was done and was about to come back, he suddenly received a call from Xiao Lin, saying that there was a serious water leak in her bathroom, and the downstairs neighbor came to cause trouble because of this. In this kind of thing, Xiao Lin took the initiative to find him, and he naturally could not refuse. He changed his route and went to Xiao Lin's house to compensate her for the downstairs expenses. This money should indeed be paid by him. After all, Yan Mo was the landlord. He helped Xiao Lin repair the bathroom pipes at her house. During the repair process, he accidentally wet his clothes. Because the repair was not so fast, he simply took off his dirty clothes.
After listening to Si Ze's explanation, Yan Jing did not witness the whole process, so she naturally could not tell whether it was true or not. Then she saw that he looked sincere and did not seem to be lying, so Yan Jing did not ask any further questions.
But he also said earnestly:
"Brother-in-law, I've been through it myself, and I only know that kind of pain. I don't want my sister to go through the same thing as me. You have to cherish her."
"If you don't love her, just tell her. My sister is more rational and smarter than me. I believe she won't be greedy for you."
After going through so many things, Yan Jing's state of mind has changed drastically. She can also see clearly that if two people who do not love each other are forced to be together, they will end up suffering like her and Tang Jie. Leaving may be the best choice, just like her now. She has pursuits and dreams, and lives the way she wants.
Si Ze solemnly assured:
"I swear that I will only love her in this life. If I break my promise, I will be kicked out of the house."
"If you want to swear, don't swear at me." Yan Jing smiled, took out her card, and opened the door for Si Ze: "Come in!"
Si Ze looked at his sister-in-law with gratitude and walked into the room. He came to the bed and looked at the woman who was engraved in his bones. He carefully kissed Yan Mo on the forehead, then reached out and gently picked her up and walked across the room.
"I'll take Momo to my room." Si Ze instructed Yan Jing who was still standing at the door, then hugged the little woman in his arms and left quickly.
Yan Jing had no objection. She turned and walked into the room and closed the door. It is better to burn a bridge than to destroy a marriage! She also hoped that, taking this opportunity, her sister and brother-in-law could reconcile as before. After all, in her heart, her sister and brother-in-law's relationship was something she envied and yearned for.
If such a relationship cannot come together, she thought, she would not be willing to try again in her life, no matter how good a person she met.
As for Si Ze, he carried her back to the room and laid her on the bed. He gently put his ear against her bulging belly and whispered to the three children inside:
"My dears, I'm your dad. I was delayed today by something, so our communication will be a little later today..."
"...Also, your mom is mad at dad today. You must persuade dad tomorrow to calm her down, okay? As long as you promise, when you get out, dad will give you a big plane." He rambled on for more than half an hour before he stopped.
Then, she immediately ran to the bathroom to wash off the dirty smell on her body, because the little girl was particularly sensitive to smells during this period.
Once he was sure he didn't smell anything strange, he returned to the room and lay down beside her.
