Ye Nian'an was torn between her thoughts and her inner turmoil.

Thinking of her family's tragic fate in her previous life, Ye Nian'an knew that the best way for her to go to the countryside was to go with the Chu family.

At the same time, Chu's parents treated Ye Nian'an very well.

Having been reborn and now knowing everything, and possessing a spatial ability, I not only want to save my own family, but also ensure that my parents can live a good life.

With one mandarin duck gone, the other is barely alive.

After Chu's mother passed away, Chu's father was exonerated and returned to the army. He never remarried and lived out his days in solitude.

Such a loving couple is truly admirable.

Thinking of this, Ye Nian'an bit her lip lightly, called over the waiter, handed him the lunchbox she had brought, and asked him to pack up the remaining lean pork rice noodles.

After finishing packing, Ye Nian'an carried the lunchbox out of the state-run restaurant.

Chu Xin'er sneered when she saw that Ye Nian'an didn't even bother to come over to greet her.

"It seems she knows she's no longer presentable to the public; she's even disowning old acquaintances."

"Say less."

"Brother, why are you still protecting her so much? Aren't you at all aggrieved? Clearly..."

"As long as she's okay, that's enough."

Chu Yan interrupted Chu Xin'er before she could finish speaking.

Chu Xin'er pouted angrily.

Why is her brother so dense? He always gets taken advantage of.

He even put on a deeply affectionate persona, making Chu Xin'er feel like the emperor wasn't worried, but the eunuch was.

At this moment, a figure approached Chu Yan and Chu Xin'er.

"Chu Yan, Xin'er..."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Ye Nian'an stepped forward and spoke, startling Chu Xin'er: "What are you doing?"

Upon seeing old friends again, even after being reborn, Ye Nian'an still felt a sense of guilt: "I have something I want to say to you, can we talk?"

Chu Xin'er's face instantly darkened: "Ye Nian'an, you have already broken off your engagement with our Chu family and plan to marry into the Zhang family. Do you know that because of this, our Chu family has become a laughing stock?"

"Our Chu family is magnanimous and doesn't hold it against you, so why are you coming to us?"

"Xin'er, don't be so rude."

Chu Yan spoke up and looked at Ye Nian'an: "Nian Nian... Nian'an, sit down."

"Thank you, Brother Yan... Chu Yan."

Ye Nian'an took a deep breath to calm herself down, then pulled over a chair and sat down.

Ye Nian'an went out just now to put the packaged lean pork rice noodles into her space to test the space's shelf life and avoid wasting them.

Ye Nian'an never wavered in her desire to seek help from the Chu family.

Chu Yan quietly observed Ye Nian'an.

She remained unchanged from before, with fair skin, a delicate and beautiful figure, a height of 1.63 meters, and a slender waist.

It felt as if Chu Yan had gently grasped her hand; her bright eyes and white teeth, without any makeup, were already breathtakingly beautiful.

Especially the confidence and vitality between his brows, just as dazzling as Chu Yan had seen him that day.

She's probably doing well in the Zhang family.

A bitter feeling welled up in Chu Yan's heart, but more than that, he felt relieved.

If she is well, then all is well.

Now, Chu Yan can no longer protect Ye Nian'an and be her lifelong shield.

"Nian'an, is something the matter?"

Chu Yan's tone was even gentler than he had expected.

"Chu Yan, are you going to the Red Star Brigade?"
