Yan Sumei showed a bitter smile on her face, "It's about the Mid-Autumn Festival gift. Shan Zhijun called me yesterday.
She told me that you refused his mother's request for your help, and she thought I told you something.
That's why you refused to help. Shan Zhijun asked me to ask you to help his mother.
Yan Ning raised his eyebrows, "So you came to me to plead for mercy? Do you want me to help them?"
Yan Sumei shook her head and said, "I know you must have your own reasons for rejecting me, so I rejected him directly.
Shan Zhijun said that his mother was not satisfied with me, and if I could help her solve this problem,
His mother will definitely accept me and let us get married soon.
I heard what he meant was that if I didn't help, then we wouldn't have to get married.
I don't want to get married, but I still want to ask him clearly, I want to get an answer that will make me give up.
I want to know if the guy who wanted to get engaged to me despite his family's objection has really changed his mind.
So I came to you because I want you to accompany me to the mine to find him, otherwise I am afraid I don’t have the courage to do it alone.”
Yan Ning thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then wait for me for a few minutes. I'll leave after breakfast."
Breakfast was a bowl of vegetable porridge and an egg. Yan Ning finished the porridge in a few gulps and washed the dishes.
Then he took the eggs and Yan Sumei out of the main room, came to the yard, pushed his bicycle out the door.
The two men rode their bicycles to the Qinghe County mine.
Yan Sumei said to the security guard, "Uncle, please help me find Comrade Shan Zhijun from the Planning Department of your mine.
He's the son of Minister Qin from your Logistics Department. I'm his girlfriend and I have something to ask him."
The security guard looked at the two of them. He had some impression of Yan Ning and knew that these two people really knew Minister Qin, so he nodded and said:
"Wait a moment, I'll make a phone call and ask."
The old man dialed the phone. After a while, I only heard him say a few words and then hung up.
He turned around and looked at the two of them. "Comrade Shan is not in the office. His colleague said he took a leave today and is not at the mine."
Yan Sumei seemed relieved and thanked the security guard.
The two men pushed their bicycles out of the mine gate.
Yan Sumei laughed at herself, "When I got to the gate, I was still a little scared to face him. But when I heard that he was not there, I was actually relieved."
Yan Ning: "We have to face it sooner or later. This matter must have a conclusion. What are your plans next?"
Yan Sumei thought for a moment and said, "I'll call him again tonight and ask him to meet up."
Yan Ning: "Alright, since we're already in the county town, let's go shopping and have lunch before returning to Daliushu!"
Yan Sumei nodded.
Yan Ning rode his bicycle and took Yan Sumei to the center of the county town.
The two of them walked around the county town and only bought two ice cream cones to eat.
At around 11 o'clock in the morning, the two went to a state-owned restaurant for dinner.
When he arrived at the hotel, Yan Ning left his bicycle in the parking lot and paid two cents for storage.
The two entered the restaurant, and at this point the lobby was already half full of people.
Yan Ning glanced around the lobby and suddenly his eyes stopped at a certain place.
She grabbed Yan Sumei, who was about to queue up to order food, and pointed her chin at a certain place, indicating Yan Sumei to look there.
Yan Sumei looked in that direction in confusion, and when she saw the table against the wall on the right side of the lobby, she was stunned.
There was a man and a woman sitting at the table. The girl was sitting facing the door. She had short hair and a pretty face. The man next to her could only see half of her face.
The man was Shan Zhijun.
The two were chatting, and the girl smiled shyly from time to time, looking like a young couple dating.
It looks like Shan Zhijun is playing both sides.
Yan Sumei clutched her palms tightly, her expression changing from shock to disbelief.
But it seemed to be within her expectations, but she didn't expect this day to come so soon.
Yan Ning asked, "Do you want to go over?"
Yan Sumei nodded calmly, not knowing what she was thinking. "Let's go sit at the table behind him and listen to what they are talking about."
Yan Ning admired Yan Sumei's emotional management. She was able to remain calm and stable even when faced with such a situation.
The two of them walked around to the table behind Shan Zhijun and sat down, quietly listening to the conversation between the two people next to them.
No one suggested ordering food. Yan Ning estimated that even if they ordered, there would be no time to eat, and these people would definitely fall out later.
At the table next to them, Jiang Mingzhu picked up a piece of meat for Shan Zhijun and said gently, "Brother Shan, you look so thin. You should eat more meat."
Shan Zhijun smiled faintly, "Thank you, you should eat more too."
Jiang Mingzhu continued, "Brother Shan, Aunt Qin told me that you've never been in a relationship before and don't know how to get along with a young girl.
But I found that you are very caring. A few days ago, I had a stomachache, and you asked Aunt Qin to bring me some brown sugar ginger tea, which I really liked. "
Shan Zhijun was about to explain, but suddenly thought of something and paused, then slowly said, "As long as you like it."
