Su Yan said without changing her expression, "No, I just went out and ate a bowl of noodles. I accidentally choked on the chili and I'm still feeling unwell."
Jiang Jingxing, as expected, stopped doubting and frowned, saying, "How could you be so careless? I'll have Dr. Ye examine you."
"No need, I'm not a child anymore, why would I be so fragile?" she said helplessly.
During the winter break, she ate medicinal meals almost every day, along with acupuncture. She looked much better and her sickly appearance had diminished considerably.
"Tsk tsk tsk." Su Yu said deliberately, "They're so affectionate, it makes me envious."
Su Yan's face flushed red, and she pinched him in annoyance, "Brother, can't you talk properly?"
Jiang Jingxing didn't react much to Su Yu's teasing, but he couldn't help but laugh when he saw her blush.
"She's shy, don't keep teasing her," he said, though he didn't mean it.
Su Yan, “…” You’d be better off not saying anything!
Su Yu rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky, then said to Su Yan, "Go check if your sister-in-law is ready."
Su Yan responded.
Since they've sent her away, it means she can't listen to what they're about to say.
After she left, Su Yu said, "The leader's idea was to let you learn directly from him after you recover, but this was met with opposition from all sides. The leader contacted me privately and asked me to ask you what you think."
The leader's meaning was clear: he intended to cultivate Jiang Jingxing as the next leader.
If he were willing, the top leader would definitely go his own way and directly arrange for Jiang Jingxing to be by his side.
Jiang Jingxing's first reaction was to refuse. He frowned and said, "I have never had such an idea. Besides, I am not very experienced. If the leader insists on this, it will be very bad for his situation. Tell him that there is plenty of time. It is not too late to talk about it after I recover and make some achievements."
Su Yu had already guessed his answer, and couldn't help but sigh, feeling extremely regretful.
With Jiang Jingxing's leg no longer able to go to the battlefield, how easy would it be for him to achieve outstanding results behind the scenes?
When carrying out missions, you can risk your life; but if you want to earn merit behind the scenes, you can only rely on your brain.
Jiang Jingxing knew why he sighed, so he raised his hand and patted his shoulder, saying, "I've been in the army for so many years, and I've survived many dangerous missions. Plus, I met Ayan. I'm already very content. Let the rest take its course."
His time will come sooner or later.
What wasn't his, he's reached for now, but it will leave him someday in the future.
Su Yu stopped worrying about it. "Okay, once you've thought it through, I'll support you."
After saying that, he added, as if remembering something, "Recover well, Ayan needs you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingxing was quite surprised.
Su Yu would never say the last sentence to him, because he believed that he could also protect Su Yan well.
"What do you mean? Is something wrong with Ayan?" He couldn't help but feel nervous.
"It's nothing." Su Yu's tone was complicated. "I think she relies on you. With you by her side, she probably feels more secure."
This is something he has to admit.
He could tell that Su Yan was more unrestrained in front of Jiang Jingxing than she was in front of him, her older brother.
The fact that Jiang Jingxing could treat her like this is enough to prove how much he indulges and spoils her; even others might not be able to do the same.
Jiang Jingxing smiled proudly, "Right? You noticed it too, looks like your eyes aren't blind."
"Hey, you're getting cocky, aren't you?" Su Yu raised his hand and punched her, warning, "Treat my sister well. If something like what happened with Si Nan happens again, I'll make sure you never see Ayan again in your life!"
"No more," Jiang Jingxing said earnestly.
"You better keep your word. If you dare hurt my sister again, we're brothers for good." Su Yu said, glancing at the time. "I'm leaving. I wish you a speedy return to the team and to fight alongside me."
"good."
...
Two days later, it was the day Wenna arrived in Kyoto.
Yesterday, Wen Nai called to say that she would arrive at the airport around noon this year, so Su Yan got up very early this morning.
Her family knew that a very important friend was coming to visit her today.
Li Juan didn't go to the store today; she stayed to prepare lunch for Wen Nai.
It takes about two hours to get from the courtyard to Nanyuan Airport, so Su Yan drove out at 9:30.
The car she was driving was lent to her by Guo Ziming.
She didn't have a driver's license, and no one felt comfortable letting her drive. It wasn't until last night when she showed off her driving skills that Guo Ziming and his family finally gave in.
At 11:50, we arrived at the Nanyuan Airport exit on time.
Su Yan stood beside the car, craning her neck to look at the flow of people at the exit.
She was holding a bouquet of lilies, which were Wen Nai's favorite.
Sending flowers isn't common now; she asked Guo Ziming to buy these for her last night.
After waiting for about fifteen minutes...
A beautiful figure walked out of the exit.
Wennai wore a loose black woolen long dress and black high heels. She had her hair styled in big waves and wore exquisite makeup. She was holding a thick coat in her arms and looking around as if searching for something.
When Su Yan saw this unfamiliar face, her first instinct was that it was Wen Nai!
Her breathing quickened, and she mustered her courage to shout, "Wen Nai! Nai Nai!"
As expected.
Wennai immediately looked at her.
The next second, she ran towards Su Yan.
Su Yan also ran towards her, carrying Baihe in her arms.
The two embraced tightly, tears streaming down their faces.
"I've finally met you!"
Wen Nai's voice trembled with excitement.
Su Yan could no longer contain her excitement and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I've seen Nana."
Even if Wenna had a face she didn't recognize, she could still spot her at a glance in the bustling crowd.
The two hugged for a long time until a voice interrupted them, "Hey? A lot of people are watching us. Can we get in the car first?"
The person speaking was Luris, Winner's assistant.
She stood with her hands behind her back, slightly bent over, curiously observing Su Yan.
Su Yan and Wen Nai reluctantly let go of each other.
Wen Nai finally saw Su Yan's face clearly and was so shocked that her mouth formed an "o" shape. "How come you're so young? Are you really an adult?"
Su Yan said, both amused and exasperated, "I'll be turning 19 in a month, what do you think?"
She was wearing jeans and a pink cotton-padded jacket, and in front of Wen Nai, she looked like a child.
Wenna is only 21 years old, but her outfit and makeup are too mature, making her look like she is 24 or 25.
However, the clothing style in the US is more open and mature, and Wennai is used to this kind of dressing.
“I think you’re not as mature as a high school student in the US.” Wen Nai couldn’t help but pinch her cheek and exclaimed, “It feels so good.”
"Alright, let's talk about it when we get back to my house. My mom has prepared a delicious lunch for you." Su Yan took her hand and asked, "Where's your luggage?"
"Hey? I've already put it in the back of the car."
Lulis, standing to the side, waved with a smile, trying to get Su Yan's attention.
