Little Apple was a little worried at the moment, and said to Yan Yiming anxiously, "Will Jian Yuyan really never come here again because of what Jian Yuer said?"
Yan Yiming's current status allows him to do whatever he wants without worrying about his reputation, but he is also subject to restrictions. For example, if Jian Yuyan really never comes to see Yan Yiming again, Yan Yiming will never be able to see Jian Yuyan no matter what.
If I can't see Jian Yuyan, the mission cannot be carried out.
Yan Yiming sighed, "Maybe, but he will definitely come today, so we have to find a way to keep him."
Little Apple nodded, leaving the host to figure out the solution. It was only responsible for reminding the host, "Last night at two o'clock in the morning after Jian Yuyan and Jian Yuer finished talking, Jian Yuyan's favorability suddenly increased by 20%."
Xiao Pingguo didn't quite understand why Yan Yiming's favorability suddenly increased after she finished talking to Jian Yuer?
"Because of guilt," Yan Yiming said calmly, "Jian Yuyan provoked an innocent person because of his selfishness. Now this innocent person is about to be hurt because of his selfishness. Of course he will feel guilty. Besides, he already likes this person a little."
Because he had promised Jian Yuer, Jian Yuyan would definitely come to Plum Garden today to make Jian Yuer satisfied.
But because of guilt, Jian Yuyan will definitely find a way to compensate Yan Yiming.
Sure enough, within half an hour, the maid outside the door asked in a familiar tone, "Hello, sir."
Little Apple immediately perked up.
Jian Yuyan's tall figure appeared at the door, looking a little haggard. He must have not slept well yesterday, but Jian Yuyan's expression at the moment was as if nothing had happened. As usual, he even put his arm around Yan Yiming's waist and kissed her on the cheek and asked her,
"Did you sleep well last night?"
Yan Yiming was slightly surprised, but then he changed his expression and acted like a spoiled child as usual, "Of course I didn't sleep well when you were not around. Was there anything important yesterday?"
Jian Yuyan's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said with a forced smile, "Well, there are some important matters."
Yan Yiming nodded, paused and asked him in a low voice, "Are you going back home tonight too?"
"A Ming," Jian Yuyan suddenly called Yan Yiming.
Yan Yiming raised his head and looked at him. When Jian Yuyan met his clear and expectant eyes, his heart suddenly softened again.
He had wanted to tell Yan Yiming today that he would never come again, but when the words came to his lips, he found that hurting Yan Yiming was more difficult than he thought, and he couldn't bear to say such words to make her sad.
He was the one who provoked her.
And now she has to be sad.
He couldn't say "I'll never come again" after all. Jian Yuyan paused before continuing, "A Ming, I'll redeem you, okay?"
After saying this, Jian Yuyan suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
During the time he met Yan Yiming and was with Yan Yiming, Jian Yuyan was immersed in it but also inexplicably fearful. He was always worried that one day someone familiar with Yu'er would see Yan Yiming and see through his thoughts. He was even more afraid that Yu'er would discover Yan Yiming's existence.
Yesterday Yu'er told him that she had seen him and Yan Yiming. Jian Yuyan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Later, he remembered that Yan Yiming was wearing a veil that day and he heaved a sigh of relief.
He didn't want other people to see Yan Yiming, and now was a great opportunity, so he asked Yan Yiming, "Can I redeem you?"
The girl next to Yan Yiming covered her mouth in shock, looking at Yan Yiming with envy. After Yan Yiming's gaze paused for a moment, she suddenly understood Jian Yuyan's actions and intentions today.
Yan Yiming couldn't help but sigh that Jian Yuyan was indeed the one with the highest emotional intelligence among the four male protagonists, and his level was really too high.
Redeeming oneself is for compensation, and this compensation is undoubtedly the biggest temptation for a prostitute.
But Jian Yuyan's move was too clever. He never mentioned that he wanted to end this relationship, and even at this moment he was still full of affection, as if he really liked her so much and didn't want her to suffer any injustice, so he said this.
It was easy for Jian Yuyan to redeem an actor, and it was also simple to give her a stable second half of her life. Even if he separated from her and sent her away afterwards, it was all for her good, because being entangled with him would waste a woman's best years.
The person who had treated her the worst ended up being her benefactor to whom she was extremely grateful.
Moreover, this matter kills two birds with one stone. Not only has he promised Jian Yuer, but from now on no one will see her face and discover his secret.
Yan Yiming suddenly felt a little angry. It was not a good thing to run away after teasing. She raised her eyes to meet Jian Yuyan's eyes, and opened her red lips slightly, uttering two words.
"not good."
Jian Yuyan's smile froze, but he immediately returned to normal and asked her in a gentle voice, "Why?"
"Because," Yan Yiming walked to Jian Yuyan and sat on his lap, wrapped his arms around his neck, and whispered in his ear, "Because I know that if I redeem myself, I will never see you again."
Jian Yuyan's expression suddenly changed, as if all his thoughts were seen through. The hand around her waist suddenly tightened and he forced a smile, "No."
Yan Yiming smiled and said, "Brother Yan, you are nervous. You didn't even notice when I called you Young Master just now."
Jian Yuyan was silent.
"Brother Yan, are you asking me how I know this? Actually, I've always been thinking about why you were so shocked when you first saw me, and then treated me like this. You've seen so many beauties, and I know I don't have stunning looks, so the fact that you care so much about me must be because this face looks like someone..."
Jian Yuyan's heart suddenly began to panic.
"Brother Yan treats me well because of this person. Now I want to leave because of this person, a person that Brother Yan loves to the core but cannot get."
The person you like to the core, but cannot get.
She knows everything!
It was as if something in Jian Yuyan's heart collapsed.
There was once a woman who, late at night when no one was around, told him with a smile that they were clearly siblings, but Master Jian had never considered Jian Yuer his own sister.
Jian Yuyan would never forget the shock those words brought him, but at this moment, Yan Yiming's words made him hold his breath for a moment.
He hugged Yan Yiming tightly in his arms. He didn't dare to look at her face at this moment. He didn't dare to think about when Yan Yiming guessed it, nor did he dare to think about why Yan Yiming never told her when she clearly knew everything.
He could no longer bring himself to say that he wanted to leave. After a long while, he called her with some difficulty, "A Ming..."
Yan Yiming raised his head and gently placed his lips on Jian Yuyan's to stop him from saying anything. After a long while, he whispered, "Brother Yan, it must be very hard to not be loved for so many years."
Is it very hard? Jian Yuyan felt bitter in his heart. How could it not be hard? He had been thinking about it and studying for so many years that he no longer knew what hardship was.
"So... you've been working so hard, why don't you let Ming stay with you? Actually, you want that, too, right..."
On that day, Jian Yuyan fled in panic, and Little Apple happily reported loudly, "Jian Yuyan's favorability has increased by 10% again. Please keep up the good work, host."
Yan Yiming smiled silently. Jian Yuyan, she kept him, and the effect was better than she had imagined.
After that, Jian Yuyan never mentioned this matter again, but Jian Yuyan also never said anything to Jian Yuer.
Jian Yuyan hadn't been to the Plum Garden for several days, not because he didn't want to, but because he didn't dare.
When I close my eyes at night, I sometimes think of Jian Yuer, but in the end it always turns into those eyes that are sometimes cunning and sometimes focused. The red mole at the corner of the eye seems to be imprinted on my heart. The way she laughs, the way she cries, and the way she curls up in my arms and sleeps peacefully.
Jian Yuyan suddenly felt something empty in his arms.
When I woke up from the dream, I heard Yan Yiming's familiar voice in my ears, "Brother Yan, it must be very hard to love someone without love." This sentence lingered in my heart for too long, "Since it is already so hard, why don't you let me stay with you."
Jian Yuyan looked at the empty seat beside him and smiled bitterly.
Yes, actually, he thought so too.
Unable to fall asleep any more, I got up in the middle of the night and found the painting I had not finished that day. The girl in the painting had a beautiful smile, but there was a beautiful red mole missing at the corner of her eye.
Jian Yuyan picked up the brush and carefully modified the woman in the painting, finally adding the red mole.
Unable to admit his mistake any longer, Jian Yuyan raised a smile on his lips, then put down his pen, blew out the lamp, and left the study.
The next day, Jian Yuer came to Jian Yuyan's place to play. As expected, her brother had not gone out to look for those people these days as he had said. He was in a good mood and looked around but did not find anyone.
Jian Yuyan was not an idle person. Maybe he went to the East Palace during the day or had important things to do. Jian Yuer did not take it to heart. Since she was here, she prepared to go to Jian Yuyan's study to find some books to read. However, she did not expect to see a finished painting of a beauty on the desk.
Jian Yuer took a look and a smile appeared on her lips.
Because the woman in the painting is clearly herself.
Jian Yuer pouted and said, "I don't know when this painting was done without telling me." She picked up the painting and looked at it carefully for a long time. She thought that her brother's paintings of beauties were getting better and better. But when had she ever worn such a goose yellow dress?
Jian Yuer couldn't quite remember it, but she didn't take it to heart. Instead, she carefully noticed that there was a small red dot at the end of the right eye of the woman in the painting.
If you don't look closely, you really can't see it.
"Did I touch it accidentally?" Jian Yuer murmured, and reached out her hand to touch the red dot, but the red dot was still there.
Jian Yuer felt it was a bit of a pity, but the flaws did not outweigh the merits, and the painting was still excellent.
When Jian Yuyan came back from Jian Xiang's place, he saw Jian Yu'er staring at the painting. He felt anxious, so he strode forward and carefully took the painting from Jian Yu'er's hand before saying, "When will Yu'er come over? Are you bored waiting?"
"I'm not bored. It's a good opportunity to appreciate my brother's paintings. I saw them but he didn't let me see them." Jian Yuer asked him with a smile, "When did my brother paint them? He didn't even tell me."
Jian Yuyan didn't want Yu'er to see A Ming's painting just now, so he hurriedly wanted to put it away. However, Jian Yu'er's tone clearly showed that she mistook the person in the painting for herself.
Jian Yuyan was suddenly stunned. Why didn’t he think of this just now?
Because he had been with Yan Yiming for too long, and because Yan Yiming was no longer a simple substitute for him, even if two people looked alike, they could be clearly distinguished after seeing each other for too long.
Yu'er is Yu'er, and A Ming is A Ming.
Jian Yuyan put away the painting in his hand and said, "It's not finished yet. I'll give it to you after it's finished and framed."
Jian Yuer nodded happily and had no objection.
On that day, Yan Yiming received a well-framed painting of a beauty in the Plum Garden. It was exactly the one that Jian Yuyan had painted when they were boating on the lake a month ago.
Yan Yiming looked at the woman in the painting with satisfaction, especially the corners of her eyes. He ordered the painting to be hung in the room. A hint of amusement flashed across his eyes, and he said softly,
"The fire is ready, it's time to add more firewood."
