Chapter 85: Not getting married on the spot?
Yan Nian took the tea handed to him by Zhao Shutong: "Thank you."
Cheng Xiao leaned towards her: "Yan Nian, are you free on the 25th?"
Yan Nian put down the teacup: "Yes."
Cheng Xiao invited: "Then you and Zhou Ran must come!"
Yan Nian agreed: "Okay."
Cheng Xiao asked the person who was chatting happily over there, "Zhou Ran? Are you done with the things along the coast?"
Zhou Ran responded: "I'm done with my work. Aren't you afraid of not catching up?"
Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, I checked the time. It's a day off. Remember to bring Yan Nian with you."
Zhou Ran looked at the person opposite him, who also looked over and said with a raised lip, "Okay."
The meal was quite pleasant. It was like eating and chatting with friends whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.
Yan Nian likes this feeling very much.
At the end of the meal, Yan Nian's phone on the table lit up.
It’s Xu Yiyuan’s call.
Yan Nian picked it up and said to the four people, "I'm going out to answer a phone call."
Cheng Xiao: "Okay."
Yan Nian walked out of the box and answered the phone nervously: "Hello, uncle."
Xu Yiyuan asked: "Niannian, are you home?"
Yan Nian said: "I'm still having dinner with friends."
Xu Yiyuan: "Oh, that's fine. Come back after dinner and pick up Mom."
Pan Yuzhi said beside her: "You have a room at home, what are you going back for?"
Xu Yiqing was making a fuss over there: "No, big brother, tell her to come over quickly."
Yan Nian exhaled lightly where they couldn't see, and replied to his uncle: "Okay, I'll be there after dinner."
Ever since Yan Nian's grandparents passed away, Xu Yiqing usually doesn't stay with his eldest brother and has to go home no matter how late it is.
Yan Nian knew her temper. If he went late, she would definitely ask questions and nag endlessly.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Nian entered the box, and everyone stood up and prepared to come out while chatting.
Cheng Xiao saw her come in and suggested: "It's still early, why don't we go sing?"
Zhou Ran looked at Yan Nian and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Four people, eight eyes, looked at her together.
Yan Nian looked back at Cheng Xiao with regret: "I have something to do here, I may not be able to go, maybe next time."
Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, next time then!"
After going out, we took her to the parking lot together.
Zhou Ran didn't get in the car. He picked up the dirty little leaves that had fallen from the tree and left them on her shoulder. "Go back quickly. I'll ask them to take me back later."
Yan Nian glanced at the other three people and didn't insist on sending him back: "Okay."
Zhao Shutong said: "Sister Nian, drive safely."
Yan Nian said goodbye to them and drove off.
Zhou Ran kept looking at the car going away. Cheng Xiao patted him and joked, "If you're so reluctant to leave, why didn't you get in just now?"
Zhou Ran withdrew his gaze, glanced at the three people next to him, smiled and said nothing.
Zhao Shutong said, "Brother Ran's soul has been taken away. Do you still have the heart to play with us?"
Cheng Xiao heard something: "What's going on? It seems like there's new progress in Mr. Zhou and Yan Nian's relationship?"
There was a smile in Zhou Ran's eyes.
Wang Hongyu put his arm around her shoulders and squeezed them. Cheng Xiao suppressed her smile and looked up. Seeing his serious expression, she blinked and said in a coquettish tone, "Good friends gossip a little!"
Zhao Shutong: "Sister, you don't need to gossip. With my 5.0 eyes, I can see that they are in love. You four should just get married together."
Cheng Xiao was happier than anyone else involved: "Really? Mr. Zhou, why don't you just get married right here?"
Zhou Ran found it funny and said in a leisurely tone, "The girl just chased me, I have to show her some good behavior, why would we get married so soon?"
Cheng Xiao and Zhao Shutong looked at each other and wanted to hit him.
Wang Hongyu sneered, "Are you feeling complacent, Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Ran raised his eyebrows: "Ah, yes, Mr. Wang."

When Yan Nian picked up Xu Yiqing, the oppressive atmosphere in the car increased exponentially.
Xu Yiqing asked, "Where's my phone?"
Yan Nian drove the car attentively: "In the bag."
Xu Yiqing turned around and grabbed her bag from the back seat, took out her cell phone from it and turned it on.
There were many text messages, WeChat and other message notifications from various apps. Xu Yiqing turned on mute mode and waited for the messages to finish.
In the gap, he asked again: "Who did you go out with today?"
Yan Nian tapped the brake lightly and blurted out: "Friend."
Xu Yiqing suddenly glanced at her from the corner of his eye: "I'll check the dashcam later."
Yan Nian said calmly, "Whatever you want."
Xu Yiqing was very dissatisfied with her current attitude and said angrily, "You're not friends, right?"
Yan Nian turned on the turn signal and turned the steering wheel into Huayue Mansion: "You should spend some time on yourself every day. Aren't you tired of thinking so much?"
Xu Yiqing unbuckled his seat belt and was about to get out of the car, but Yan Nian braked suddenly and Xu Yiqing fell forward and almost hit him.
Yan Nian was annoyed: "What are you doing? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
"Can you take some responsibility for yourself? What if there's a car behind you?"
Xu Yiqing quickly got out of the car and slammed the passenger door.
Yan Nian lowered the car window: "Get in quickly."
Xu Yiqing shouted through the car window: "Come down and explain it to me clearly."
Yan Nian said helplessly: "Can we go home and talk about it?"
Xu Yiqing said forcefully, "Come down."
There was a stalemate between them.
"You are simply unreasonable." Yan Nian gripped the steering wheel tightly, his heart hardened, he released the brake and drove away.
Yan Nian looked in the rearview mirror and saw Xu Yiqing still in the same position.
Yan Nian drove the car into his own parking space, rubbed his face irritably, got out of the car and went out to look for someone.
Xu Yiqing was not at the same place as before. Yan Nian looked around and was about to make a phone call when he saw a figure sitting in the pavilion in the community in the moonlight.
She walked over, breathed a sigh of relief, and went to hold Xu Yiqing's hand: "Let's go, it's late, go home and rest."
Xu Yiqing broke free from her hand.
Like a child, Yan Nian sat down beside her and fell into a daze. After a long while, she broke the silence: "Grandma is in the hospital. I'm going to accompany her tomorrow. I'm telling you this."
Xu Yiqing finally responded and turned to look at her: "What happened to your grandma?"
Yan Nian didn't mention the woman: "She fainted."
Yan Nian said helplessly, "Don't go out drinking. Think about your own business."
Xu Yiqing has been more restrained these past two days. When Yan Nian discussed divorce with her, Xu Yiqing said, "Don't meddle in our affairs."
Yan Nian collapsed: "Then how long do you want to wait?"
Xu Yiqing went back to his room and closed the door, not giving her a chance to speak.
Yan Nian sent another message to Yan Qilin, and Yan Qilin also said that he had something to do recently and had no time.
