Chapter 174 Not for the New Year



Xia Yun watched eagerly, Shi also found it a little funny and glanced at Jiang Zishan.

Jiang Zishan's brows were indeed furrowed. He felt uncomfortable watching Xia Yun flirting with Xiao Yue in front of him.

From the beginning, Xia Yun's heart was on him, and she was even willing to follow him to the northwest to meet Shi Ye for his personal happiness. Although Xia Yun's "seduction" of Xiao Yue was a plan, he still felt a little unhappy when he saw it with his own eyes.

In Jiang Zishan's opinion, no matter whether he likes Shi Ye or not, Xia Yun should only like him.

But Xia Yun's current behavior does not seem like simple "seduction", but rather a reaction after being emotionally aroused.

Could it be that Xia Yun now feels that he is not as good as Xiao Yue, and is not seducing him, but truly wants to reconcile with Xiao Yue?

Thinking of this, Jiang Zishan felt a little uneasy, his brows furrowed even more tightly, and his mind had already shifted away from Shiya.

Shi knew Jiang Zishan too well. She knew what he was thinking just by looking at his expression. She sneered in her heart, thinking that Jiang Zishan was the typical one who wanted more while having his cake and eating it too. He could not let go of his "feelings" for her, nor his "possessiveness" for Xia Yun. If this continued, Jiang Zishan would take action without her having to break up with Xia Yun.

Jiang Zishan has never been a generous person. Whenever his own interests are monopolized, he will always go crazy.

Everyone had different thoughts, but Xiao Yue remained calm. After finishing his meal, he looked at Shiye and asked, "Do you want to eat more?"

Shi also shook his head: "I'm full."

Xiao Yue stood up very naturally and put away his and Shi Ye's dishes and brought them to the kitchen. Looking at this scene, Xia Yun couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. She knew that Xiao Yue was always a gentle person, but she had never seen him serve others like this before.

Even though she had spent her last life in the northwest and had tried her best to be with Xiao Yue, he was always indifferent and never showed his emotions, as if he was not facing his partner, but a wooden man, without any feelings at all.

Originally, she thought Xiao Yue was like this, but when she saw with her own eyes how he treated Shi Ye, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.

It turns out that when a person is not so concerned about you, it is not because of his nature, but because he does not care, is not interested, does not like, and does not want you. When you meet the person in your heart, it is easy to turn a tough piece of steel into a soft silk.

Xiao Yue wiped his hands and patted Shiye's head gently: "Let's go, I'll take you to buy New Year's goods."

"Buying New Year's goods? What to buy?" Shiya smiled and became interested. He hurriedly got up and caught up.

"Buy whatever you want. I'll pay." Xiao Yue's majestic voice was heard, and the two of them walked away with a smile, completely ignoring Xia Yun and Jiang Zishan who were still sitting at the table. Their attitude of treating the two as air made the room instantly cold.

Xia Yun frowned and stood up to chase after him. Most of her mission time had passed. If she delayed any longer, not only would the matter between Xiao Yue and Shi Ye be settled, but her mission would also fail. Then everything would be over!

However, just as Xia Yun stood up, Jiang Zishan grabbed her wrist. He was very strong and said in a deep voice, "Where are you going?"

Xia Yun felt pain, her face was distorted. She endured the pain and turned to look at Jiang Zishan with a pitiful look: "Brother Jiang, Xiao Yue and Shi are back home, they must be talking about marriage, do you want them to get married?"

Jiang Zishan's expression was cold and he didn't show any mercy. He pinched her chin and sneered, "Really? But I just saw you flirting with me, as if you wanted to stick to Xiao Yue. Xia Yun, sometimes I really don't understand what you are thinking."

Xia Yun secretly groaned in her heart. She only recently learned that Jiang Zishan had such a "domineering" personality.

It was obvious that when they were in Yandu, Jiang Zishan had no interest in her initiatives and was only thinking about Shi Ye. But since he went to the northwest and saw her getting too close to other men, Jiang Zishan developed an extraordinary possessive desire.

If it was at the beginning, she would be very happy, but now under the urging of the beauty system, she can only focus all her attention on Xiao Yue. As for Jiang Zishan, he can only become a thing of the past for the time being, otherwise it will affect her mission.

Furthermore, the current situation has undergone tremendous changes compared to the previous life.

Jiang Zishan, whom she thought had a promising future, had not made any progress yet. If he continued to be a new recruit in the Northwest, she didn't know how many merits he would have to accumulate before he could make a name for himself. On the other hand, Xiao Yue, with the rank of deputy division commander, had already occupied an important position in the Northwest.

Instead of wasting time on Jiang Zishan and accompanying him in his growth, it is better to sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor and be with Xiao Yue. This was the result in her previous life anyway, and now it is just a matter of getting back on track. Xiao Yue should have been hers.

"Brother Jiang, I feel..." Before Xia Yun finished speaking, the door was pushed open. At the same time, Xiao Fengnian's surprised voice sounded: "Xiao Yun is back? Why didn't you inform me in advance? Xiao Yun, you..."

Xiao Fengnian's voice stopped abruptly, and he frowned as he looked at Jiang Zishan and Xia Yun sitting together.

However, he also knew Jiang Zishan, so he did not get angry at the first time. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Tong Muzhen. The latter sneered, glanced at Xiao Fengnian, snorted, and went upstairs. She had no intention of following him to deal with Jiang Zishan.

Jiang Zishan was not in a hurry. He straightened his clothes when he stood up and said to Xiao Fengnian, "Chief of Staff Xiao Shen, I am really embarrassed to be your guest for the first time. I just came to send Comrade Xia Yun back. Now that she is here, I should go back as well."

After saying that, Jiang Zishan lowered his eyes and glanced at Xia Yun. This look was very sharp.

Xia Yun bit her lip and lowered her head in a hurry, not daring to look at Jiang Zishan, for fear that Xiao Fengnian would notice something.

She knew Xiao Fengnian, and his feelings for her were purely out of his brotherly love for Xia Sheng. So compared to Shi Ye, Xiao Fengnian valued her more. If he knew that she was going to the Northwest for Jiang Zishan, he would definitely ask him. Once he was sure, he might go to the Jiang family to propose marriage tomorrow. By then, her mission would be completely declared a failure.

She can't marry Jiang Zishan now, she wants Xiao Yue, whether it is for the mission or a decision after weighing the pros and cons.

"Then I won't see you off." Xiao Fengnian looked at the two of them, his expression unchanged, and just nodded lightly.

After sending Jiang Zishan away, Xiao Fengnian turned around and saw Xia Yun's slightly relaxed body. He immediately frowned and asked suspiciously, "Xiao Yun, when did you meet this kid from the Jiang family? When did he go to the northwest?"

Xiao Fengnian is not someone who is so easily fooled. After all, he has experienced a lot. With just one glance, he can see the unusual atmosphere between Jiang Zishan and Xia Yun, just as he sees through Xiao Yue and Shi Ye.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fengnian's expression became a little ugly. It seemed that these young people coming back one after another were not celebrating the New Year?
