Chapter 124 Let Go
When the second wave of people came in, a wall of solid chests blocked her way, separating her from the others.
Without even looking up, Yu Nian could tell it was Ji Yanxing just by smelling the faint scent of agarwood and tobacco on him.
She raised her eyes and saw his furrowed brows.
Young Master Ji probably seldom takes an elevator with such a worldly feel.
Most of the people living in her apartment are white-collar workers such as corporate executives. It can't be compared with the level of the villas they live in. During rush hour, just waiting for the elevator is enough to make people anxious.
His time is so valuable, there is no need to waste it with her.
"Ding." The elevator arrived at the first floor.
The elevator door opened, fresh air rushed in, and Yu Nian and Ji Yanxing walked out one after another.
He kept following her. Yu Nian frowned, but she couldn't chase him away. She didn't know for sure whether the place he was going to was on her way. If not, it would seem that she was being too self-indulgent.
The place for dinner was a Cantonese restaurant on the third floor of the mall. When Ji Yanxing followed her into the restaurant, Yu Nian finally turned around and looked at him impatiently, "Ji Yanxing, can you stop being so annoying?"
Ji Yanxing's face immediately darkened. He suppressed his anger and laughed in anger: "Isn't it possible for me to come to this restaurant to eat? Is Miss Yu a shareholder of this restaurant? Even if she is a shareholder, I come in to eat, are you going to chase me away?"
“……” Yu Nian pursed her lips, did not argue with him at the door of the store, and walked into the store.
Su Miao arrived later than her and hurried to the door. She saw this scene and stood there without daring to speak. Yu Nian didn't know if she was angry or not, so she didn't notice her. After Yu Nian went in, Su Miao was waiting for Ji Yanxing to go in before going in, but he turned around and left.
He was walking towards where she was standing.
Su Miao didn't know whether to leave or just stand there stupidly. As she was hesitating to stand there, Ji Yanxing noticed her and looked down at her.
Su Miao had no choice but to say hello: "Ji, President Ji."
She had seen Ji Yanxing several times in the company before, and Ji Yanxing obviously recognized her and nodded, "Yeah."
"..." There was silence for a while. Su Miao was about to say "Goodbye, President Ji" and leave when a deep male voice suddenly sounded above her head - "Are you the one who made a dinner appointment with her?"
Su Miao was stunned: "Yeah."
Ji Yanxing's expression eased a little. He responded and walked away.
Su Miao raised her hand and touched her frightened little chest, and took a deep breath. It was really scary to have a conversation alone with the big boss.
Qiao Siyun's boyfriend Gu Qing is the CEO of a media company. He has a righteous appearance and is humorous. He seems to be a good match for Qiao Siyun.
After dinner, Qiao Siyun wanted to watch a movie with Gu Qing. Su Miao and Yu Nian naturally would not be the light bulb. After they left, Su Miao couldn't help but say what he had been holding back all night: "Niannian, I saw President Ji when I came here."
Yu Nian responded, “Oh.”
Her face was calm, and no emotion could be seen. Su Miao was silent for a few seconds and asked, "Is he pursuing you?"
He is pursuing her? Yu Nian pursed her lips: "Maybe."
"What do you think?" Yu Nian stared at the leftovers on the table, and suddenly said, "Actually, I've liked him for many years."
Su Miao's eyes widened: "What?"
"I fell in love with him at first sight when I was seventeen," she said calmly, as if she was telling someone else's story. "I was quite different from who I am now. I have always been chasing his footsteps like a star. He was a student at Peking University, so I worked hard to get into Peking University. He was from City A, so I stayed in City A to live. For the past eleven years, his shadow has always been in my life."
Su Miao was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
"Some people are born with incompatible magnetic fields, and he and I are like that," Yu Nian said. "Instead of torturing each other, it's better to let each other go."
Last night he said, "Do you want me to love you?" Yu Nian admitted that she was still very moved by this sentence and cared about it more than she thought. She almost didn't sleep well all night and was thinking about this sentence while working during the day.
It turned out that his casual words could still have such a great influence on her.
But "I love you" is an instinct. She should have known that he was not interested in her at first sight. Even if they spend more time getting along in the future, there will only be family affection, companionship, possession, and habit, but no love.
Since she was seventeen years old, she subconsciously set limits for herself that the object of her liking and love could only be Ji Yanxing.
That’s why I can’t be attracted to others.
Ji Zhenguo was right. If she couldn't get over it on her own, whether they were divorced or not, she would have to stay with him until death.
Su Miao didn't know what happened between her and Ji Yanxing, but from what Yu Nian said, she knew that she was serious and had no intention of going back to him. "I will keep it a secret for you,"
Su Miao looked at her and said, "If you don't know how to deal with this relationship, don't think about it for now. Go do something else first. Maybe one day you will find the answer."
Yu Nian smiled: "Yeah."
-
The next day at work, Yu Nian received a call from Gao Qier, who called to invite Yu Nian to attend the wedding.
"Sister-in-law, I'll reserve a seat for you in the first row. You must come."
Yu Nian leaned back in his chair and pinched his brows, "Your brother and I are divorced."
"Ah..." Gao Qier was a little surprised, but she didn't care much and quickly changed her words, "Let's get a divorce, Sister Nian Nian, if you mind, I won't invite him."
Yu Nian: "..."
It seems that Ji Yanxing is her biological brother.
Gao Qier: "Sister Nian Nian, this is my first time getting married. None of my friends are married. I'm afraid I'll get nervous and make mistakes. I'll feel more at ease if you're here. Don't worry, Sister Nian Nian, even if I invite him, I'll put him in the last row and won't let him bother you."
"..." Putting everything else aside, Yu Nian liked Gao Qier very much, and he had promised her that he would attend her wedding. Yu Nian didn't want to break his promise, so he agreed.
Gao Qier hung up the phone with satisfaction, and sat on the sofa holding the phone. She frowned and thought for a while, then looked at the man behind the desk, "My brother and sister-in-law are divorced."
Qi Ye looked up from the documents, not surprised at all, "Yu Nian finally got rid of him."
"..." Gao Qier took small steps over and sat on his desk, feeling a little unhappy and melancholy. "But if this is the case, my brother will be alone."
"He's quite pitiful. His father died, his mother ran away, his wife doesn't want him anymore, and he doesn't have any children. He's like a lonely man."
Qi Ye commented calmly: "He has always been alone, he is used to it."
Gao Qier: “…”
Qi Ye saw that she was sullen and pinched her fingers, "Why do you think he agreed to the divorce?"
Gao Qier thought for a moment, "Could it be that he was awakened by my scolding?"
Qi Ye glared at her, "He's been spoiled by Yu Nian. Yu Nian must have always been very nice to him. He can't stand it if she's not that nice."
"……Um?"
"He divorced her, not really letting her go, but just finding another way to get her."
