Downstairs was very lively. Du Heruo was naturally talkative and soon became friends with Ye Tingshuang. They also talked about Ye Tingyuan's embarrassing things together. Ye Tingyuan sat alone beside them, watching them gossiping with both anger and amusement.
After Ye Nanning and the others returned to the living room, Du Heruo quickly pulled Ye Nanning into the conversation, and the group of young people chatted and laughed.
Fu Jie frowned and watched for a while, then with a smile on her face she told the kitchen to add more food for lunch, and then she called Ye Yiyu.
After a moment, Ye Yiyun asked in disbelief: "Are you saying that Nan Ning and Xiao Yuan took their friends to play at home right after I left?"
"Yes, and Xiaoyuan is bringing a female classmate with him. She's very cute," said Fu Jie.
Ye Yiyu said dissatisfiedly: "Did they bring it here on purpose when I was away?"
Fu Jie smiled.
"Who are these friends? Take a photo and show it to me, especially Xiaoyuan's female classmates." Ye Yiyu asked.
Fu Jie secretly took a photo of Du Heruo and her sister: "These two girls are sisters."
Ye Yiyun glanced at the photo and was first attracted by the mature woman sitting next to Ye Nanning: "Du Xiran?"
"Do you know him?"
"Well, Nan Ning's boss does an excellent job." Ever since Ye Yiyu went to the internship assessment site last time and knew that Du Xiran was Ye Nan Ning's direct boss, he has paid more attention to her.
After hanging up the call, Ye Yiyun took the time to find out about Du Xiran's work situation, but her boss reported something that surprised him: "Are you saying that she took the initiative to withdraw her promotion report?"
"Yes." MD said regretfully, "She just said it was due to family reasons and temporarily gave up the chance of promotion. She was clearly preparing for the promotion ambitiously before, and this opportunity was definitely a sure thing. It's such a pity."
Ye Yiyu looked at Du Xiran's previous performance report and felt sorry for her.
......
The Ye family had lunch, which was very sumptuous, almost blinding Du Heruo, but she did not show any panic. She finished her meal very calmly, and then chatted with Ye Nanning on WeChat: [Ahhhhhhhhh! Sister Xiao Ye, your family is so rich! ]
Ye Nanning: [Don’t panic.]
Du Heruo: [I'm not panicking at all! Aaaaaaaa! Did I act like a country bumpkin just now?!]
Ye Nanning: [No, you performed very well. I envy you so much.]
After dinner, Ye Tingshuang was about to leave for the airport, so the Du sisters had to say goodbye first. Ye Nanning wanted to see them off, so after whispering with them about what to eat for dinner, she got on another car.
"Nan Ning, are you also familiar with Du Heruo?" Fu Jie asked in the car.
"Um."
"What kind of person is she?"
Before Ye Nanning could answer, Ye Tingyuan couldn't help but interrupt: "Why are you asking these questions? We are just classmates. Can you please stop interfering in my affairs?"
Fu Jie frowned slightly: "Is it not okay for me to just show some concern?"
Ye Tingyuan didn't say anything else. Ye Nanning pinched his arm and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. Although He Ruo is a bit extroverted, she is not a person without ideas. She also has her own dreams. She is very unique."
Hearing this, a smug look appeared on Ye Tingyuan's face again.
Fu Jie sighed and shook her head: "Okay, you're grown up now, I can't control you anymore."
Ye Nanning winked at Ye Tingyuan, who scratched his head awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I was too hasty just now."
Ye Tingshuang sat aside and laughed: "He is already angry with his mother for his wife. Who knows how difficult it will be to control her in the future."
"Shut up." Ye Tingyuan turned his head and glared at her. "I don't think you're any better. I don't know how many times you go home in a year. Are you going to die abroad in the future?"
"Hey, it's none of your business."
Fu Jie smiled helplessly: "Okay, neither of you is worry-free, but Nan Ning is the least worry-free."
The car suddenly became quiet, and even Fu Jie was worried that she had said something wrong, so she subconsciously looked at Ye Nanning. She wanted to repair her relationship with Ye Nanning, but she knew that she had not given her feelings to her when she was a child, so there was always a gap between them. She was worried about hurting the sensitive girl again, so she stood in the same place awkwardly and stubbornly.
Ye Nanning looked at Fu Jie and smiled: "Thank you, Auntie. If my sister doesn't come back often in the future, I will come back to cook for you."
Fu Jie was stunned, her expression was moved, but she still maintained a calm look: "Okay."
Ye Tingshuang smiled: "This is to compete for favor."
A few people smiled, but they no longer had the sensitive and suspicious minds they had before. The children had grown up and gradually realized that the truth of the year could not be judged simply by right or wrong, and that those were all matters of the previous generation. They, the young people, should stop the loss in time.
Ye Nanning looked out the window, feeling more relaxed than ever before. She seemed no longer afraid to return to the Ye family, nor to see the harmonious and warm scenes of the Ye family, because she was also a member of the Ye family.
"Ye Nanning." Ye Tingshuang suddenly called her. She turned back and saw Ye Tingshuang asked seriously, "Are you really not going abroad to study?"
Fu Jie and Ye Tingyuan also looked at her. Ye Nanning was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
"You studied English so hard before, wasn't it just for studying abroad?" Ye Tingshuang asked.
Ye Nanning lowered her head: "That was in the past..."
"Are you afraid that we will think too much?" Ye Tingshuang asked directly.
Ye Nanning suddenly looked at her, the surprise in her eyes was not hidden.
"Sure enough." Ye Tingshuang sighed.
After a while, Fu Jie took over and said, "Nan Ning, did you give up going abroad because you heard some strange remarks?"
Ye Nanning looked around and saw that her eyes were full of doubt and worry, so she said what she had suppressed for a long time: "I don't mean to fight for the family property."
After the college entrance examination, she accidentally heard a group of relatives at a banquet exaggerating Fu Jie, saying that she had chosen finance as her major, which was obviously intended to be the successor, so Fu Jie should be wary of her.
Ye Nanning originally just wanted to be an invisible person, and after hearing this, she wanted to hide her incompetence even more. So she gave up the idea of studying abroad, and planned to find a job after completing her undergraduate studies and live as an ordinary child.
"Nan Ning, I'm sorry." Fu Jie said in a low voice.
Ye Nanning was surprised: "Auntie?"
"I was too narrow-minded before, and it was always difficult for me to open my heart to you." Fu Jie lowered her eyes, "I know Yiyun and your mother don't have any other feelings, but I can't help but be suspicious because your mother is too outstanding. As soon as I saw you, I would doubt your father - is it true that he has never been moved by Ye Ming? Can he really resist such a strong temptation?"
It was the first time Ye Nanning heard her talk about the past. She held her hand and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. My mom never loved my dad. On the day she passed away, she told me to be grateful to you. She said you were a very good person. You brought her meals and celebrated her birthday when she was so busy. She was sorry for you. If it weren't for these accidents, she would have just wanted to be friends with you guys."
Hearing this, Fu Jie could no longer care about her image and burst into tears in front of the children.
Ye Nanning and Ye Tingshuang hurried to comfort her, and Ye Tingyuan also considerately handed her a tissue.
After her emotions calmed down a bit, Fu Jie smiled and said, "I'm sorry to make you laugh. I admit that I was driven by suspicion and was influenced by the opinions of outsiders. I was worried that you would hate me and my child and plot against me, but I didn't expect that we would cause you a lot of harm."
Ye Nanning: "No, no, Auntie, you have treated me very well."
After the two of them finished talking to each other about their innermost thoughts, they felt much more relaxed. Fu Jie then said, "So don't be afraid of rumors about family property. The three of you have your own paths to take. You can make your own decisions. I support you. Especially Nan Ning, you are about to graduate. Do you really want to work at the bottom of the company until you are old? You should learn more while you are young."
Ye Nanning nodded, but was a little unsure: "Let me think about it again."
Ye Tingshuang glanced at her, as if she had guessed her concerns, and reminded her meaningfully: "Think carefully, this is your future, don't let it be easily controlled by others. It's not worth giving up a great opportunity for others."
Fu Jie nodded: "Yes, don't let me influence your decision anymore."
Ye Tingshuang: “…” I didn’t say you.
Several people said goodbye at the airport. Fu Jie gave her detailed instructions on everything from life to work. Ye Tingshuang nodded frequently, but it was not known whether she had listened or not.
Ye Tingyuan interrupted again: "I see you are quite happy here, do you plan to stay abroad forever?"
Fu Jie couldn't help but look embarrassed. She had also worried about this problem. Her daughter had studied abroad for many years and her career was also abroad. There was no guarantee that she would not immigrate directly. But how could she bear to let her daughter go?
Fortunately, Ye Tingshuang still had some conscience and said, "Don't worry, I came back this time not only to visit you, but also to discuss cooperation and strive to open a studio in China this year."
"Really?" Ye Tingyuan and Fu Jie both breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon hearing this decision, Ye Nanning was also happy for them. Her eyes wandered and she suddenly spotted Mingshuang in the crowd. She was carrying a computer bag and looked hurried, and it was unclear whether she was about to leave or had just returned from another place.
"Mingshuang." She called out subconsciously.
Hearing the noise, Mingshuang paused, turned her head, and walked over with a smile. As she approached, her eyes were attracted by the woman in front of her, and her smile suddenly paused.
"You..." Ye Nanning was about to ask her a question, but she walked straight past him and pressed Ye Tingshuang's shoulder.
Several people looked at the sudden woman at the same time. Ye Tingshuang turned back curiously and her face turned pale in an instant: "Why are you here?"
Ye Nanning was surprised: "Do you know each other?"
Ming Shuang, however, seemed not to hear anything. His eyes fell directly on her face. His expression changed several times. Finally, he sneered and said, almost gritting his teeth, "Oh, I thought you were dead, boss."
Ye Tingshuang's face froze, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face.
"You..." Ye Nanning was surprised to find that they actually knew each other, and she had never seen Mingshuang with such an expression, as if she wanted to eat her alive, but there was a hint of imperceptible uneasiness in her tone.
"Who are you? How dare you talk like that?" Ye Tingyuan's face fell, and Fu Jie also frowned slightly.
"It's okay, it's a friend I met abroad." Ye Tingshuang explained to her family.
Fu Jie's expression eased a little: "Really? Then what's your friend's name?"
"This..." Ye Tingshuang said with a stiff face, "Her name is Xiao Ming."
Several people: "......"
After a while, Mingshuang asked back, "What's your name?"
Several people: "......"
Ming Shuang suddenly laughed twice: "Can I know your name now? Boss?"
I don’t know if it was Ye Nanning’s illusion, but she actually heard a hint of ambiguity in the title “boss”.
"Come with me." Ye Tingshuang pulled Mingshuang to the other side. No one knew what they talked about, but they parted unhappily. Mingshuang left arrogantly and indifferently, even turning a deaf ear to Ye Nanning's calls.
The family wanted to ask more questions when the radio started talking and Ye Tingshuang waved to them.
After sending Ye Tingshuang off, Ye Nanning went straight back to the apartment she rented. While giving Du Heruo extra lessons in the afternoon, Du Heruo asked about the Ye family's situation for a long time, from food, clothing, housing, transportation to family members, and Ye Nanning answered patiently.
Du Xiran was also listening openly nearby, and she even said that she wanted to get to know Du Heruo's in-laws better, which made Du Heruo blush and drive her out.
After the three of them finished their meal in the evening, Du Heruo went back to her room, leaving only the two of them in the living room watching TV.
Du Xiran held Ye Nanning in his arms, supported himself on the sofa with one hand, and pinched her ear: "I feel a little happy after you came back today."
"Yeah!" Ye Nanning told her about the reconciliation of her family members, and her face showed joy. "I feel so happy now. I have a family and a lover."
"That's great." Du Xiran smiled.
At this time, Du Heruo came out to use the bathroom and saw the two of them sitting on the sofa in a sticky manner, feeling a little puzzled.
"By the way, I also prepared something for you." Du Xiran suddenly stood up, ran to the kitchen, and took out a can of biscuits. "I baked them as soon as I got home. Come and try them."
Ye Nanning looked at her in surprise: "Did you bake it yourself?"
"Well, I made it according to the recipe you gave me before, but it's a bit mushy." Du Xiran said.
"It's okay!" Ye Nanning opened the box, picked up a piece and quickly put it into her mouth. Except for the minor problems of a slightly darker color, a bland taste, a slightly deformed shape, and a less crisp texture, everything else was perfect. "It's delicious! It's a work of art!"
Du Xiran laughed out loud and pinched her nose: "You liar, do you think I haven't tasted it myself? Du Heruo even vomited directly."
"That's because she doesn't know how to appreciate it." Ye Nanning said.
Du Heruo: “?”
When Du Heruo came out of the bathroom, he heard the two of them talking bad about him in the kitchen. He was very puzzled and went back to his room.
Half an hour later, Du Heruo came out again to get something and saw them talking on the balcony. Du Xiran's hand was still around Ye Nanning's waist. She was very puzzled and returned to the room with a lot of question marks on her face.
——What's going on? She and her best friend aren't that close, are they? There are all kinds of best friends in the world!
It was getting late. Ye Nanning returned to her home after taking a shower. She heard the doorbell and opened the door. Du Xiran, wearing pajamas and a silk scarf wrapped around her hair, walked in with a generous demeanor.
"Ran Ran." Ye Nan Ning called out, somewhat surprised, "Is there anything else going on so late?"
"Have you forgotten something important? The very important thing you promised me today." Du Xiran glanced at her.
Ye Nanning was reminiscing when she was suddenly led by the hand and walked towards the bedroom. She immediately remembered something and her face turned red. She felt a little nervous and eager to try.
After the door was closed, Du Xiran took her hand and sat down on the bed. Their eyes met and the atmosphere changed. Seeing that she was hesitant to move, Ye Nanning asked her shyly, "Let me do it?"
"You wish. I've already graduated." Du Xiran was almost mesmerized by her beauty and forgot about his business. He then took out a box that he had prepared for a long time from the drawer and began to unpack the things inside. "Are you ready?"
Ye Nanning:
Du Xiran glanced at her again, and pulled off the silk scarf on her head. Her hair fell on her shoulders, and a few strands of hair brushed across Ye Nanning's cheek. Then Ye Nanning's hands were tied together by the silk scarf, and she whispered, "Be good."
