Two days later, Ye Nanning and Du Xiran completed their resignation procedures, had a meal with their close colleagues, and then began to prepare procedures for going abroad.
With Ye Yiyu's recommendation, Ye Nanning decided on a school, submitted application materials and prepared for the IELTS. It was a tedious task, but she enjoyed it because she had Du Xiran to help her.
On the weekend, Du Xiran was invited by Ye Yiyu to have dinner at the Ye family. This time it was considered a formal visit to meet the parents. She actually felt a little nervous. The last time she was nervous was when she was making love with Ye Nanning for the first time and was afraid that she might not do it properly.
She was standing at the door with a gift in her hand. When she saw Ye Nanning trying to ring the doorbell, she hurriedly called out, "Wait, wait... take another look. Is my makeup smudged?"
Ye Nanning looked at it carefully and said, "No, it looks very good!"
Du Xiran: "Where are the clothes? Is everything ok?"
She is used to wearing casual formal clothes, but today she wore a white dress, which was simple and elegant, with a refined temperament. Her hair was draped behind her, which reduced her sharpness and made her look a lot more approachable.
Ye Nanning nodded vigorously: "Super beautiful!"
"Are the shoes too high?" Du Xiran asked worriedly, "Should I wear flat shoes?"
Ye Nanning figured out what was going on and asked in a low voice, "Ran Ran, you're not nervous, are you?"
"How is that possible! What a joke! Would I be nervous?" Du Xiran glanced at her, as if to prove something to her. He quickly pressed the doorbell, then looked straight ahead with his chest held high. He didn't raise the corner of his mouth until the door opened. "Hello, Auntie."
The person who opened the door was the nanny. She had been notified in advance that the second young lady was going to bring her girlfriend home, and that she would have to add a few more dishes for lunch. So when she saw Du Xiran, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It turns out to be you, beautiful lady. Come in quickly."
Du Xiran deliberately walked in front of Ye Nanning and glanced at her proudly. The naive Ye Nanning gave her a thumbs up sincerely.
"Now that you're here, take a seat and rest for a while. Just come, why bring gifts?" Fu Jie smiled and hurriedly stood up to greet them, said a few polite words, led the two into the living room, and then went to put away the gifts.
Ye Yiyu had been waiting for a long time. He looked up at them, with no expression of sadness or joy on his face, as if he was no different from usual in the company.
Du Xiran immediately felt as if she was facing a formidable enemy. Fortunately, she had met many important people in her work, so she was able to remain calm. She smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "Boss Ye, I'm sorry, I'm late."
"Hmm." Ye Yiyun groaned, turned his head to look at them, put down his crossed leg immediately, and then raised the other leg again, and said in a pretentious manner, "Is there a traffic jam on the road?"
"Yes."
Ye Yiyun crossed his other leg and said, "Sit down."
The three of them sat opposite each other. Du Xiran unconsciously rubbed the fabric on his knees with his fingers. No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. After all, the person sitting opposite was the former big boss, and now he is the father-in-law. It was really difficult. Is there anything more difficult to deal with than this? !
She was waiting for her father-in-law to ask questions so that she could answer them properly, but her father-in-law remained silent. He just glanced at her from time to time but didn't say anything, which made her feel uneasy.
Little did he know that his father-in-law was also worried at this time. Although there were three children in the family, the first one to bring a partner back was Ye Nanning. Because of the guilt he had felt over the years, he would not make things difficult for Ye Nanning and the person she liked, but he was a man of few words and used to having a stern face, so it was difficult for him to change when facing his former subordinates.
Moreover, he also felt that he should show some authority to scare her, so that she would know that Ye Nanning's family was very strong and that his daughter could not be bullied casually. So, he was waiting for Du Xiran to take the initiative to speak, but unfortunately the other party did not move.
Just when the two were in a stalemate and the atmosphere was becoming increasingly strange, reinforcements finally appeared.
Ye Tingyuan ran out of the bedroom on the second floor, rushed downstairs, and asked them a lot of questions: "Second sister, Sister Xiaoye, when did you two get together? Why did you get together? No wonder I always felt that something was wrong with you...Does Du Heruo know about this?"
Du Xiran turned around and answered his last question: "She knows."
Ye Tingyuan was stunned. He sat down next to Ye Yiyu and muttered, "No wonder she said our relationship was complicated and rejected my confession."
"What?" The three of them, including Fu Jie who was walking over, looked at him together, "You were rejected?"
Ye Tingyuan covered his face sadly: "Hmm..."
The day after the college entrance examination, Ye Tingyuan solemnly confessed his love to Du Heruo, but she rejected him, saying that she needed to think carefully about their relationship, and then left City B.
Du Xiran maintained a polite smile on his face and secretly applauded Du Heruo in his heart.
Ye Yiyu had already learned about the relationship between Ye Tingyuan and Du Heruo from Fu Jie, and said, "If you really like her, then try your best to win her back, instead of just hanging your head and sighing at home all day."
"That's right." Fu Jie poked his head, "I told you to be more and more arrogant. Now that your girlfriend has left you, you are still complaining about everything."
Ye Tingyuan scratched his head with both hands: "But she is not here anymore, how can I chase her? I don't even know why she suddenly ran back. What if she hates me?"
Du Xiran sighed, and finally softened her heart, explaining: "She went back because her grandmother was sick, and she went back to take care of the elderly."
Ye Tingyuan suddenly raised his head, his eyes lit up: "So she went back to play with the school hunk in her hometown?"
Du Xiran: "Who told you that?"
Ye Tingyuan said in a low voice: "I saw her circle of friends. She posted a photo of the two of them and said thank you to them."
Du Xiran: "That's because the school hunk heard that grandma was sick, so he went to visit her."
Ye Tingyuan stood up suddenly, looked around, and then turned back to look at Fu Jie: "Mom, I..."
"You are already eighteen years old. You don't need to report to me where you want to go." Fu Jie said.
"Thank you, Mom!" Ye Tingyuan hurriedly ran upstairs to pack his luggage.
During lunch, Du Xiran was still telling him the route and address. Ye Tingyuan humbly asked his parents what gifts he should bring to the Du family. Du Xiran had to tell him about his parents' preferences again.
Everyone at the dinner table was discussing this topic, and the atmosphere quickly broke the ice. As they chatted, Du Xiran and Ye Yiyu started chatting, mainly about work.
Ye Yiyu was very satisfied. Usually, there was almost no one at home who could talk to him about related matters. Ye Nanning, the only one who knew the subject, would not even talk to him all day. Now, finally there was a member who was both knowledgeable and able to talk.
After lunch, Ye Yiyu finally had a smile on his face.
Du Xiran inexplicably received Ming Shuang's friend request. After accepting it, the first thing the other party said was: [I heard that you went to Mr. Ye's house? ]
Du Xiran replied proudly: [Yes.]
Mingshuang: [What does he like? ]
Du Xiran: [Like me. ]
Ming Shuang: [......]
Du Xiran: [Ah, I can’t help it. I’m just so popular. He even promised me to continue to work at Zhenghe when I return to China. I wanted to refuse him but he didn’t dare to. He said that I don’t need to worry about my relationship with Nan Ning. He just appoints people based on merit and believes that we can distinguish between work and personal matters. Alas, there’s nothing we can do about it because my father-in-law likes us too much.]
Mingshuang was so annoyed by her that she really wanted to block her.
Ye Tingyuan went to W City to pursue his girlfriend first, and Du Xiran and Ye Nanning went back later.
The main thing is to explain to my parents about working abroad.
It was only when she got home that Du Xiran discovered that Ye Nanning had secretly prepared gifts for her parents. They were all things her parents liked. Thinking that she must have taken note of them at the dinner table, she smiled and pinched Ye Nanning's palm.
Father and Mother Du were a little puzzled: "These gifts...we just received exactly the same ones a while ago, from Brother Xiaoye."
Du Xiran: “…” They are indeed a family!
Du Xiran's parents did not object to working abroad. After all, working in City B, she could only go home a few times a year. Besides, there would be better opportunities after going abroad, and they would have face to brag about it to their relatives and friends.
I’m just worried that Ye Nanning will suffer.
"Xiao Ye, I'll leave this useless guy in your care from now on. The world is so far away, you two must take care of each other." Mother Du said earnestly.
"Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely treat her well." Ye Nanning replied.
Du Xiran listened to their chattering conversation: "...I'm going abroad, not getting married!"
The two also went to the hospital to visit their grandmother. Because they were worried about the old lady's health, Du's mother asked them to hide their relationship in front of relatives. Ye Nanning, who was well-behaved, beautiful and considerate, quickly won the favor of her grandmother, who kept asking her to play more.
There were many things to deal with, so the two of them returned after only a few days. When they said goodbye at the airport, Du Heruo cried like a dog: "Wuwuwuwu, how can you go abroad just like that? You two flew away together, leaving me alone, wuwuwuwuwu."
"I'll accompany you." Ye Tingyuan said on the side.
"Wuwuwuwuwu, I want Sister Xiaoye."
Ye Nanning actually saw a hint of jealousy in Ye Tingyuan's eyes. Just as she was about to speak, Du Xiran pulled her hand away. Du Xiran turned around and glared at her sister: "Don't set your sights on your sister-in-law."
Ye Nanning turned around and waved to Du Heruo and Ye Tingyuan, then whispered, "It's my brother-in-law."
Du Xiran glanced at her and said fiercely, "I'll make you cry tonight."
Ye Nanning: Hee
The next day after returning to City B was Ye Nanning’s graduation ceremony, and the weather was fine.
After Du Xiran finished the things at hand, he drove to B University.
Students gathered in groups of three or five on the campus, chatting and laughing, with confident smiles on their faces, obviously full of hope and ideals for the future.
There were many family members waiting at the school gate, taking photos with the children in their bachelor's gowns, and laughter was heard everywhere.
Du Xiran looked around and didn't see Ye Nanning, so he walked into the campus and called her. Ye Nanning said she was preparing to take a graduation photo in front of the library.
She asked a passerby for directions, then walked in that direction. From a distance, she saw a group of young and handsome people standing on the steps in front of the library, wearing neat bachelor's gowns and smiling at the camera.
It was almost effortless to spot Ye Nanning's figure. Standing in the crowd, she was so dazzling, with an upright posture and outstanding temperament, but she had no expression when facing the camera.
"The beautiful lady in the middle, please smile." The photographer couldn't help but speak.
The classmates were all laughing secretly, and someone said: "This is the goddess of our class, she doesn't laugh easily."
"If you can make her laugh, I'll respect you!"
"I admire you too!"
No matter how the photographer coaxed her, Ye Nanning found it difficult to smile. She just wanted to finish the photo shoot and leave quickly. The more people expected her to smile, the more nervous she became, and her face became tense.
The photographer had given up: "Okay, come on, everyone, get ready, this is the last photo."
Ye Nanning stared at the camera expressionlessly, and suddenly heard the boy behind her say, "Where did that beauty come from? Why is she staring at our class? Could she be one of your girlfriends?"
Many boys looked over there, and Ye Nanning also subconsciously turned her head and saw a beautiful woman holding a large bouquet of flowers. She immediately smiled.
——Click.
The photographer zoomed in and saw: "Wow, this smile is so beautiful!"
After taking the photo, Ye Nanning rushed to Du Xiran and said with a smile: "Didn't I ask you to wait for me at the door? Why did you come here?"
"I want to see you taking pictures." Du Xiran looked at the person in the bachelor's gown carefully, presented the flowers to her, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, happy graduation."
"Thank you." Ye Nanning was embraced by the beautiful flowers, and the faint fragrance lingered around her.
Some curious classmates came forward to ask Ye Nanning who this beautiful lady was.
Ye Nanning looked at Du Xiran, and Du Xiran also looked at her, smiling without saying a word.
"She's my girlfriend." Ye Nanning said with a little pride.
Du Xiran and her classmates and colleagues were stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting her to give such a direct answer.
"Let's go." Du Xiran curled his lips and took her hand.
The two left the library sweetly, completely ignoring how shocked the classmates behind them were.
After walking a few dozen meters, Du Xiran could still hear the shocked voices of the group of people. He smiled and said, "If the classmates all know, is it okay?"
Ye Nanning nodded: "Anyway, we are not familiar with each other, and we are all going abroad, so we are not afraid."
Du Xiran smiled: "It seems that you are looking forward to studying abroad."
"Yeah! The main thing is that I can be with you!" Ye Nanning held the flowers and smiled brightly, but suddenly paused and turned to look at her, "What about you? You leave your family, familiar company and colleagues, and go to a completely unfamiliar place. Will you be afraid and worried?"
"What is there to be afraid of?" Du Xiran held her fingers together. "As long as you are here, it is not a strange place. Besides, this is an unexpected surprise."
Ever since she met Ye Nanning, her orderly life has been completely disrupted. Every step she takes gives her a sense of surprise like opening a blind box. No one knows what will happen next, but she is still willing to work with Ye Nanning to see more possibilities.
It was a rare chance to rest, so the two of them strolled around the campus. Ye Nanning introduced her to the surrounding environment. The sun was a little strong, so after walking for a while they stood under a tree to enjoy the cool air.
"We haven't taken a photo together yet." Du Xiran took out his cell phone and wanted to take a photo with Ye Nanning who was wearing a bachelor's gown.
Ye Nanning came closer, and the flowers in her arms also appeared in the camera.
"Three, two, one."
They both tilted their heads at the same time, their lips unexpectedly touched, and then they laughed at the same time.
The sun was shining brightly at that time, and it sparsely fell on the bouquet through the leaves, and the two people's profiles complemented each other, creating a beautiful scenery.
Du Xiran raised her hand and looked at the sunlight through her fingers. It was hot and full of vitality, just like their future lives. She smiled and said, "Ye Nanning, I wish you a bright and beautiful future."
"It's us."
"Well, I wish us a bright and beautiful future."
The author has something to say:
At this point, this article is officially finished! I tried to write a thousand or two thousand words in the extra chapter, but it was difficult to describe the better future for them in my mind. I was afraid that words would limit everyone's imagination. It would be best to stop here, so there will be no extra chapter. But there will still be a chance to see them again. They should make a guest appearance after the opening article of Mingshuang and Ye Tingshuang. I am already looking forward to it hahaha.
