Chapter 68 Like
After getting in the car, Ji Yanxing obviously noticed that Yu Nian was in a bad mood. His eyes darkened and he said softly: "Sorry, I'm late."
Yu Nian came back to his senses and shook his head: "I'm not entangled in this, I'm just a little sad."
Ji Yanxing looked at her, "What?"
Yu Nian felt that this little emotion was unnecessary, but she still felt uncomfortable. When she heard Ji Yanxing ask this, she said frankly: "Feng Xiaoyang is my first client, and the first case I participated in the entire process. For this case, I spent a lot of time, energy, and emotions. Now this solution, I feel it is not worth it."
Ji Yanxing pulled her into his arms, and casually played with her long hair. "Not everyone deserves help, and not everyone has the ability and willingness to live independently. Although she can't help herself, you are responsible for your own life."
Yu Nian looked up at him and said sullenly, "I understand the reason."
Yu Nian: "Yeah."
“But I’m still not happy”
Ji Yanxing raised his eyebrows and said, "Go home and make your favorite sweet and sour pork tenderloin."
“Do you do it yourself?”
"Um.
Yu Nian looked at him steadily for a few seconds, then suddenly reached out to hug him, leaned over and kissed him on the chin, "Okay."
Yu Nian did not ask how Ji Yanxing treated Zheng Yao, but she never saw Zheng Yao and Feng Xiaoyang again after that. They just disappeared from her life. Apart from that, she never saw Meng Ziyun again. She did not see Meng Ziyun even when she attended several parties with Ji Yanxing and his friends.
I don’t know whether he was deliberately avoiding her or Mu Meng Ziyun faded out of his circle.
Ji Yanxing promised her that he would not let Meng Ziyun interfere with their lives. Yu Nian chose to believe him and did not mention Meng Ziyun again.
Time passed quietly, generally speaking, it was very plain. Neither she nor Ji Yanxing had a passionate personality. They only quarreled occasionally, and of course Ji Yanxing always won. But in the end, she would pretend to be angry, and then he would shut up, and that would be the ending. There was a hint of sweetness in the plainness, and the feelings deepened and became stronger.
This winter is particularly cold. Since the New Year holiday, Ji Yanxing has followed Yu Nian back to Yu's house. They have stayed there for too long. Even He Manlian secretly reminded Yu Nian that they need to go back to the Ji family, even if it is just a superficial job.
Yu Nian turned the words to Ji Yanxing, who pursed his lips and said, "No need."
Yu Nian looked up at him.
Ji Yanxing pulled her into his arms, rested his chin on the top of her head, and whispered: "I like your home."
Yu Nian's eyes moved slightly, and she stopped trying to persuade him. Holding his waist, Ji Yanxing took her to the balcony. There was a swing on the balcony of her bedroom. He held her and sat on the swing. Yu Nian nestled in his arms, watching the snowflakes flying all over the sky. "When I was under a lot of pressure in high school, I liked to sit on the swing with my books and recite them," Yu Nian's body swayed gently with the swing, "and then I fell asleep while reciting, and continued to recite after waking up."
Ji Yanxing squeezed her palm from time to time.
“So hard
Yu Nian raised his eyebrows proudly: "Otherwise, how could I be the dark horse who made a comeback?"
Before she met him, she had no goals and thought she was a good kid as long as she didn't do anything illegal. But after his halo inspired her to make progress, she realized how far she had fallen behind, so she tried her best to catch up.
But some things are easier said than done. She had a poor foundation and could only pass Chinese and English in the six subjects of the college entrance examination. So she spent every holiday in remedial classes since her second year of high school. She thought about giving up countless times, but when she thought about being with him one day, she was a silly and innocent girl with an empty brain, and she felt that she was not worthy of him.
"Why study law?" Ji Yanxing asked casually.
Yu Nian thought about it, "I liked it at first, but later the sunk cost was too high. After all, I studied law for five years, and I would suffer a loss if I changed my career."
If you weren't a lawyer, what would you do?
Yu Nian pondered for a moment, "Designer, I'm pretty good at sketching."
Ji Yanxing frowned: "I am from the same industry as Lu Yuchen."
Yu Nian turned his head and looked at him speechlessly: "..."
The two chatted casually until sunset. The sunset on a snowy day was even more beautiful. The white snowflakes gently fell in the afterglow of the sunset, quiet and romantic. They sat on the swing for an unknown period of time, and suddenly heard a light cough. Yu Nian was frightened and immediately looked towards the source of the sound, only to see Yu Yi's back. Yu Yi turned his back to the two of them, with an expression of "I didn't see anything", "Mom asked me to call you to eat."
Yu Nian was embarrassed to be seen by her brother with Ji Yanxing, and immediately stood up from him. However, her legs became numb from sitting for too long, and she twisted her ankle and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Ji Yanxing supported her and let go of her hand after she stood firmly, and said in a slightly scolding tone: "How reckless."
Seeing that Yu Yi was still here, Yu Nian did not argue with him.
"I'm going to the bathroom, you guys go down first."
After she left, Yu Yi looked at Ji Yanxing, "Brother-in-law, let's go downstairs."
Ji Yanxing: “Yeah.”
Yu Yi admired this brother-in-law very much. After spending the past few days together, he found that Ji Yanxing was also good at playing games, even better than him, a semi-professional e-sports player. He was rich, good-looking, successful in his career, good to his sister, and good at playing games. He was simply perfect! The two walked side by side in the corridor, and Yu Yi suddenly stopped, "Brother-in-law, you go down first, my phone is out of battery, go get the charger."
Ji Yanxing saw him shaking his phone and nodded lightly.
When passing by Yu Nian's study, a servant came out.
"Son-in-law."
Ji Yanxing saw that she was holding a pile of books in her hand, "What is this?"
"This is the eldest lady's book. The second lady is borrowing it to read. I'll give it to her."
The door of the study was not closed yet. Ji Yanxing looked in from the outside. The style of her study was completely different from that of her bedroom. It was decorated in cold black, white and gray tones. One wall was made into a bookshelf, neatly filled with books.
Ji Yanxing paused, turned and walked towards her study.
Someone must be cleaning the place regularly. A scent of books and fragrance wafted over the room. Ji Yanxing raised his hand and turned on the light.
He walked to the bookshelf, slid his fingertips over the spines of the entire row, and glanced at her book.
There are legal majors, literary novels, poetry and ancient books, and a special area with fancy covers that look like online literature books.
Ji Yanxing raised his eyebrows. The types of things she dabbled in were quite wide.
Yu Nian loves reading in her spare time. During the past few months of getting along with her, she would hold a book and read before going to bed. Most of the time, she was quiet, sitting alone, either reading a book or watching a movie, or occasionally playing her stupid little game.
I heard Yu Yi reveal during casual chat that Yu Nian was very noisy when he was a child and didn't seem like the type of person who could sit still and read.
