Before Ye Xinning could react, he had already taken advantage of her vulnerability. Shen Lin's kiss was somewhat urgent, and compared to his usual gentleness, it seemed to carry a hint of punishment. His hand landed on the back of her head, and he pressed her against the passenger seat and kissed her.
After the kiss ended, Ye Xinning leaned back in her chair, panting, "Want to say something more?"
Ye Xinning glared at Chen Lin, but her cheeks were flushed, so her glare had no intimidating power and looked more like she was being coquettish.
Shen Lin felt a tickle in his heart, so he leaned in again and kissed the corner of her lips. "Is Cheng Yuhuai still harboring feelings for you?"
Hearing his description, Ye Xinning couldn't help but smile. "What do you mean by 'still harboring ill intentions'? He was seriously pursuing me before, okay?"
He's not right for you.
Ye Xinning, "..."
Okay, okay, in Shen Lin's eyes, probably no one but himself is good enough for her.
"What were you talking about? You talked for so long?" Shen Lin asked as he returned to his seat and started the car.
Ye Xinning thought about what she had just talked to Cheng Yuhuai and didn't intend to hide it from Shen Lin.
“I told him about my resignation and that I won’t be coming next week.”
Upon hearing Ye Xinning's words, Shen Lin stopped the car again.
His gaze darkened as he looked at Ye Xinning in silence.
Ye Xinning turned to look at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"
When did you decide to leave?
"I've been thinking about getting back together with you ever since the moment I agreed."
"Don't you like working at a law firm?"
“I like it, but we can’t let Uncle Shen take care of all the company’s affairs for you forever. As for my job, I saw Xiao Chen last time, and he asked me if I wanted to go back. I thought about it, and it’s a good choice.”
Shen Lin pursed his thin lips and spoke after a long while, "You never told me any of this."
"Now you're saying it."
Moreover, since he was thinking of her, she couldn't pretend not to know; that would be somewhat selfish.
Shen Lin felt a warmth in his heart and held her hand tightly. "After we return to Nancheng, you can do whatever you want with your work and life. I won't interfere. You are yourself first, and then you are my wife, Shen Lin."
Ye Xinning understood his intentions, grasped his hand in return, and gave him a knowing look. "Let's drive."
...
After deciding to return to Nancheng, Ye Xinning finished coordinating her work with Cheng Yuhuai. On the day she returned to Nancheng, after getting off the plane, Shen Lin was about to take her and the child to the villa on the hillside.
But Ye Xinning refused.
"I'll go home and see my mom first."
Shen Lin probably didn't expect her to refuse, and he paused for a few seconds before speaking.
"Have you changed your mind?"
Ye Xinning didn't know why he thought that way, so she shook her head and said, "No."
"Then why don't you come back to the hillside villa with me?"
Ye Xinning looked at Shen Lin's anxious gaze.
As if she understood something, she sighed and said, "I just got back, so I have to go back and see my mom first. Also, I need to talk to her about us."
"Are you really not backing out?"
Ye Xinning confirmed repeatedly, "If I were to change my mind, I wouldn't come back to Nancheng with you."
Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
"Then promise me that you'll come with me to get our marriage certificate next Monday when the Civil Affairs Bureau is open."
"good."
Hearing her readily agree, Shen Lin was satisfied and sent her back to the Ye family.
As for the two children, Ye Xinning let them decide for themselves whether to go to the hillside villa with Shen Lin or to the Ye family home with her.
The two children hadn't seen their grandmother for a long time, and without thinking, they said they wanted to go to the Ye family's house.
The car stopped in front of the Ye family's house. Shen Lin instructed, "Don't make a fuss when you get home. Listen to your mother and grandmother. I'll come pick you up another day."
The two children agreed, and Shen Lin held Ye Xinning's hand again, "Don't overwork yourself, call me if anything happens."
"Um."
Shen Lin couldn't bear to part with her, so he kissed her forehead again.
The two children saw this and secretly laughed. "Daddy's like a child," Ye Zhimu said, her little mouth chattering.
"Neither my brother nor I are like our father, who can't live without our mother."
Shen Lin looked at his daughter and said, "Your mother is the most important person to me. I wish I could be with her 24 hours a day."
"Yes, yes, I can see that. Dad kisses Mom, but he doesn't kiss us."
Ye Xinning, "..."
Seeing that Shen Lin was seriously talking to his daughter about this, Ye Xinning quickly said, "Alright, you should go back now."
As Shen Lin got out of the car, Ye Rouxin walked over with her maid not far away.
The maid went to move things, and the two children came up to Ye Rouxin and affectionately called her "Grandma".
"Good, good, it's good that you're back."
Ye Xinning spoke softly, "Mom."
Shen Lin also called out, "Mom."
Ye Rouxin looked at Shen Lin and asked with concern, "Are you feeling better?"
"Okay, thank you for your concern, Mom."
"Okay, that's good. Your dad has been taking care of things at the company lately, so you should go back to the company soon and help him out."
"Okay, sure." Shen Lin didn't plan to go into the Ye family home. He bowed slightly to Ye Rouxin and said, "Mom, I'm leaving Ningning and the two children in your care. I'll come to visit formally another day."
"Um."
...
After Shen Lin left, the two children went inside with the servants, with Ye Xinning following Ye Rouxin.
Ye Rouxin asked, "Why did you suddenly decide to come back?"
Ye Xinning lowered her head and said, "Mom, I've decided to remarry Shen Lin."
Ye Rouxin wasn't too surprised by her decision. In fact, she had guessed it when Ye Xinning called her to say that she was coming back to Nancheng.
"You're already a mother of two, so your decision must have been made after careful consideration. In that case, I won't interfere with your decision. I'll just treat you and your children well."
"Yes, I know, Mom, don't worry. This time, I believe in Shen Lin and I believe in my own decision."
Ye Rouxin patted the back of her hand and sighed, "The past is truly over now. From now on, I just hope you two are happy."
Ye Xinning hummed in agreement. She and Shen Lin had known each other for so long, from getting to know each other to falling in love, and then to breaking up.
During this time, she had an accident, Shen Lin had an accident, she lost her memory, there was a car accident, misunderstandings, grudges, and so many twists and turns. Shen Lin was hurt, she was hurt, but the only thing that remained unchanged was that Shen Lin loved her, and she still loved Shen Lin.
In the future, she wants to walk with Shen Lin; they are each other's most steadfast choice.
...
After dinner, Ye Xinning received a call from Song Zhengchu.
Hearing that she had returned to Nancheng, Song Zhengchu smiled and said, "So you've decided it's still that kid, Chen Lin?"
Ye Xinning nodded, "We're planning to get our marriage certificate on Monday."
"Have you thought it through?"
"Um."
"Sigh, after all this time, it still ends up benefiting that kid from the Shen family."
