Chapter 196 A Sudden Sense of Crisis!
With just a single tone of voice, Xiao Ran could easily discern her mood at that moment.
After all, for someone who has been together for seven years, this is really not a difficult thing.
He swallowed hard, his tone comforting.
"It will all pass. Don't forget that you've survived the toughest times. When the company first opened, you went out to do business yourself, and you even went rock climbing with customers to get orders."
He still remembers that when Yan Li came back that day, she had more than one scrape on her leg, and when she saw him, tears streamed down her face.
She said she finally got the order, and that she had risked her life for it.
That was the truly difficult time for her.
But now, three years later, Yan Li is no longer the same Yan Li she once was; she has achieved her dream.
Actually, thinking about it, her personality is indeed a bit fiery.
However, without this kind of personality, she probably wouldn't have achieved her current success.
Bringing up old stories always evokes a sense of nostalgia.
Yan Li forced a smile.
“I was only 21 years old at the time, just one year older than Xi Ci.”
Back then, I was just a little girl.
She sighed, "Let's not talk about these things anymore. What's past is past. We have to look forward."
It was truly heartbreaking and difficult to say goodbye. She remembered that when she was starting her business, she often went hungry because she didn't have time to eat. Xiao Ran would always cook for her and deliver the meals to her company.
But now, only Wang Meng occasionally eats with him.
The food they ate was mostly takeout.
Come to think of it, it's been a long time since I've had a home-cooked meal.
Especially the ones made by Xiao Ran, I really miss that taste.
That's the taste of home.
Thinking about this, that indescribable guilt welled up in my heart again.
If I hadn't done so many terrible things back then...
At least I still deserve to eat the food he cooks.
But who can be blamed for this?
The windshield wipers kept clearing the water stains from the glass, making a soft but rhythmic sound.
Yan Li's eyes seemed to hold a thousand words, but in the end she only said one sentence in a low voice.
"Thanks."
The car drove past a food stall with a cloak covering its owner.
Because of the rain, there weren't many people at the stall.
The boss was also hurriedly packing up his things, preparing to go out to avoid the rain; his movements were somewhat clumsy.
Yan Xici looked at the three big characters "Doupeng Shamian Oden" and subconsciously swallowed.
Then a "gurgle" came from inside my stomach.
The car was quiet to begin with, but when her stomach rumbled, not only Xiao Ran but also Yan Li, who was sitting in the front, heard it.
Xiao Ran subconsciously looked up at her face.
With a concerned look, he asked, "Didn't you eat dinner?"
I wasn't home last night and forgot to ask her what she ate. I really was careless.
The girl's long eyelashes trembled slightly, a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I'm not hungry."
She genuinely felt she wasn't hungry.
Xiao Ran raised an eyebrow. "Even if you're not hungry, you should eat something; it's good for your stomach."
After saying that, he thought about it again.
"How about I go downstairs and make you some later?"
There are still some noodles at home, so I'll cook her some egg noodles myself.
Yan Xici felt embarrassed to have him cook noodles for her so late at night.
She quickly waved her little hand, "It's too much trouble, let's forget about it."
"No trouble at all. I'll make it for you whenever you want to eat it."
His eyes were filled with tenderness as he spoke.
The streetlights outside the window, and his own reflection, were clearly reflected in his pupils.
With just one glance, Yan Xici's fragile little heart completely melted.
He's really good to me.
Perhaps afraid that her sister would hear, she quietly leaned close to Xiao Ran's ear and whispered something in a voice only he could hear.
"It's so good to have you."
Being in love with him is truly my greatest fortune.
After the girl finished speaking, her small hand unconsciously slipped into Xiao Ran's palm.
His palms were always warm, especially on rainy days like this. Being held in his hand, I felt a comfortable and warm sensation that enveloped me, which was a wonderful experience.
The girl's hand was small, and she could easily clench it completely in her palm without even trying.
He squeezed her soft little hand, and then couldn't resist ruffling her head.
Her eyes were filled with unspeakable tenderness, "How silly of you!"
I was just cooking her a bowl of noodles; it wasn't anything extraordinary.
Saying that gives her the illusion of being a warrior.
The two people were talking back and forth behind each other.
Yan Li felt a mix of emotions upon hearing this.
There was a time when he treated me the same way, but unfortunately, I always found him nagging and was always very nice to him.
Later, he stopped asking me if I wanted something to eat when I got home.
Instead, he silently returned to his room.
Looking back now, I think it was probably because she was afraid of being disappointed when she saw her own cold face.
Suddenly, I understood a truth: happiness requires effort.
Love is mutual.
Look at them now, how wonderful they are.
The overflowing love between them is so sweet and makes you feel happy just watching them.
