Chapter 503 So, you're still leaving?
When Wen Jingxi came out, Song Lanyin was no longer in the living room.
He glanced at the empty living room and a sudden wave of panic washed over him!
Did Song Lanyin just leave like that?
He strode out, took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Song Lanyin's number.
The familiar bell rang in the courtyard.
Wen Jingxi paused.
In the small pavilion in the courtyard, Song Lanyin answered the phone, "Hello?"
Wen Jingxi looked at the woman with her back to him in the night.
He hung up the phone and walked towards her.
“Ayin.”
Song Lanyin was stunned, and as soon as she turned around, the man hugged her.
Wen Jingxi pulled her into his arms, tightening his grip, and habitually buried his face in her neck, inhaling her unique fragrance. He slowly let out a sigh of relief, but his voice was inexplicably tinged with a hint of grievance.
I thought you had abandoned me.
Song Lanyin was both amused and exasperated. "Am I really that much of a jerk in your eyes? Always running away at the drop of a hat?"
"No," Wen Jingxi said softly, "In my heart, you are the best."
"Then why are you afraid I'll run away?" Song Lanyin raised her hand to wrap around his waist and sighed softly, "I won't run away, but I feel that if I stay here in this atmosphere, it will only make things more difficult for you."
Wen Jingxi released her and looked into her eyes. "You mean, you still want to leave?"
“You know your grandfather’s health condition. He can’t accept me yet. If I continue to ignore him and stay here, and he gets really upset, then I will become a sinner to your Wen family.”
Wen Jingxi pursed his lips and looked at her.
He didn't want to wrong Song Lanyin, but given the old man's current health, there really wasn't a better way.
"I'll talk to Grandpa about it slowly." Wen Jingxi lowered his head and gently kissed her lips. "Ayin, give me some time. I will definitely let Grandpa know how good you are. I will handle it well and won't let you suffer."
"It's okay, you don't need to feel pressured." Song Lanyin tapped his forehead. "Don't argue with your grandfather because of me. Your grandfather's health is the most important thing."
"I'm very touched by your understanding, but I still feel a little sad."
"Why?"
"I feel that you're too understanding, which makes it seem like you don't love me as much."
Song Lanyin: "...Get lost. If that's how you put it, fine, then steal your household registration book and come get our marriage certificate tomorrow! Do you dare?"
Wen Jingxi: "?"
Song Lanyin was just saying it casually. She knew that Grandpa Wen looked down on her now. If she really got a marriage certificate with Wen Jingxi, the old man might be so angry that he would die!
"Ayin, were you telling the truth when you just said that?"
Song Lanyin was taken aback. "Why are you asking that?"
Looking at Wen Jingxi's serious expression, she suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Wen Jingxi, I was just joking, please don't take it seriously, and please don't have such rebellious thoughts!"
"Of course I will do my best to get my family to accept you, but if..."
Wen Jingxi looked into her eyes, pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before saying in a low voice, "Ayin, I mean, if in the end my family still doesn't want to accept you, will you still insist on being with me?"
Song Lanyin was taken aback.
She hadn't really thought about that.
She didn't consider that it was because she had no other family members besides Song Wenyuan, and that Song Wenyuan would unconditionally support her no matter what she did.
Therefore, she is actually much freer than Wen Jingxi.
Whatever decision she makes, it's entirely up to her.
But Wen Jingxi is different.
Wen Jingxi has family and responsibilities behind him; he has much more to consider than she does.
Song Lanyin suddenly realized that there was a huge gap between her and Wen Jingxi.
But she never considered these things before. She only thought that if she liked someone, she should bravely pursue them. She only thought about enjoying the present moment and never thought about the future.
But now, she suddenly feels like she's been a bit selfish.
Why is this happening?
In just over half a month, how could her mindset have changed so much?
"Ayin." Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Wen Jingxi frowned and asked, "Do you regret being with me?"
Song Lanyin snapped out of her daze and was caught off guard by Wen Jingxi's pitiful gaze.
She sighed and reached out to touch the man's handsome face. "Wen Jingxi, do you have a phobia of being dumped? I didn't say anything, so why do you think I regret it?"
"You're not even in a hurry," Wen Jingxi complained, feeling wronged.
"What good will it do if I'm anxious?" Song Lanyin retorted. "Will your grandfather immediately change his attitude and accept me if I'm anxious?"
Wen Jingxi: "..." It seems impossible.
Song Lanyin rolled her eyes at him. "That's your grandfather, your family. Although I'm a little disappointed that I'm not accepted, we're both adults. We should look at everything rationally and then find ways to solve the problems. This is only the first day we've met; we have a long future ahead of us. I'm not in a hurry because I'm prepared for a long battle. As long as you don't compromise, I won't back down. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Wen Jingxi's anxious and restless heart was soothed by Song Lanyin's words.
"Ayin, I understand!" He cupped Song Lanyin's face, kissed her lips hard, and then hugged her tightly.
"Sister Ayin, how come I didn't know you were so great before? I'm so glad you didn't give up on pursuing me back then, otherwise I would have missed out on you."
Song Lanyin snorted coldly, "That's because you didn't know what was good for you before."
"Yes, I was blind before!" Wen Jingxi chuckled. "I've changed. From now on, you're the best in the world to me!"
Song Lanyin raised her hand and hugged him back. "Don't worry, we're still young, and we have plenty of time to wait. But your grandfather is getting old, and I don't want you to have any regrets. So promise me that when you communicate with your grandfather, you'll try to be gentle and not aggressive. Take it slow."
Wen Jingxi was deeply moved and pulled the person into his arms even tighter. "I understand."
...
That evening, Wen Jingxi drove Song Lanyin to Lijiang Villa himself.
He had just dropped the person off when Uncle Wang called, saying that the old man had woken up and was throwing a tantrum because he couldn't see him.
Helpless, Wen Jingxi could only hurry back to Yungui.
Shen Qingshu asked Sister Yun to tidy up the guest room.
Afterwards, she took Song Lanyin to her studio and asked what happened.
Song Lanyin did not hide anything.
After listening, Shen Qingshu was at a loss for words.
"Grandpa Wen is actually a very nice person, but he has a rather deep obsession with Xiao Wen's marriage."
“I can understand. After all, the Wen family has only had one son for three generations, and they are a prestigious family, so they are particular about the marriage of their heirs.”
As she spoke, Song Lanyin rested her chin on her hand and sighed, "I hadn't thought about any of this before. I just kept thinking that if I liked someone, I should go for it. Now that we're both in this mess, problems are starting to arise."
“You have to trust Xiao Wen. He’s thought about all these issues before,” Shen Qingshu reassured him. “Right now, as long as you don’t say you want to break up, that’s the biggest support you can give Xiao Wen.”
"Don't worry, I'm not that weak. I just don't want to upset the old man. These things have to be done slowly."
Hearing this, Shen Qingshu breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you understand."
Song Lanyin never thought of backing down. She planned to wait until the old man's health improved in a few days, then she would buy some gifts and supplements to formally visit him. She would then make a good impression and change the old man's opinion of her.
She had some confidence in her personal charm. Furthermore, she felt that Grandpa Wen was not the kind of stubborn old man; it was just that other people's preconceived notions had influenced him.
Therefore, she remains very confident in her relationship with Wen Jingxi and has never considered backing down.
What she didn't expect was that the Yu family's shady dealings weren't over yet...
