Chapter 197 Lost the Watermelon and Picked Up Sesame



Yan Jingwen turned around and saw Ye Shuning and the others. He greeted the elders first and then said to Ye Shuning, "Ye Shuning, you came back with Shaozhong."

Ye Shuning had already stood up at this time. When she heard Yan Jingwen's question, she replied, "Yes, I came back with Brother Zhong."

Yan Jingwen couldn't help but ask, "So you've been in Nangang all this time?"

Li Shaozhong took over the conversation, "After Xiao Ning escaped from the hands of the bad guys, she drifted to Nangang. Later, a friend informed me of her whereabouts. I found Xiao Ning directly when I went to Nangang before."

Yan Jingwen heard from Li Shaozhong's words that Li Shaozhong had been with Ye Shuning during his stay in Nangang. Seeing Li Shaozhong's happy face, he knew that they were living well in Nangang.

Yan Jingwen noticed that Ye Shuning had changed a lot. She had become more beautiful, with an elegant and generous temperament, exuding confidence, and her clothes were very fashionable. She was no longer the timid little girl from the countryside.

Yan Jingwen didn't know what to feel inside; it was bittersweet, and filled with deep regret. He had pushed such a good girl away. It was too late to regret it now.

Li Shaozhong said, "Jingwen, you happen to be in Kyoto. Xiao Ning and I are getting married in three days. You must come and attend."

Li Shaozhong felt that after such a long time, Yan Jingwen should have let go of the past, so he generously invited Yan Jingwen to attend the wedding.

But when Li Shaozhong said this, Yan Jingwen felt as if his heart was hit by a heavy hammer, and it hurt. But he still had to pretend to be happy, "Congratulations, I will definitely attend your wedding."

Li Shaozhong smiled and said, "I also need to send a message to my other childhood friends and classmates."

Li Shaoyang knew about Yan Jingwen and Ye Shuning's past, and he didn't mind adding insult to injury to Yan Jingwen, "Jingwen, Shaozhong is getting married soon, why don't you hurry up? I heard your family is looking for someone to introduce you to, is there anyone you like?"

Yan Jingwen was a little embarrassed for a moment, "I'm not in a hurry yet, I haven't met anyone I like yet."

Yan Jingwen couldn't stand staying any longer, so he found an excuse to leave. He breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the Li family's gate.

Then, a wave of loss threatened to overwhelm him. Ye Shuning had been his fiancée. If they hadn't called off the engagement, he would be the one beaming with happiness now. He had ruined that happiness with his own hands, had given it away to someone else. He was such a fool.

At this moment, his heart felt like it was being pinched hard by a hand. It hurt so much that he seemed unable to breathe.

Yan Jingwen slowly walked to a flower bed and sat on it. He lowered his head and looked straight at the ground, his eyes were red, his throat was tight, and he covered his chest for a long time before he recovered.

Only then did he realize that Ye Shuning had been deeply engraved in his heart. But what could he do? He could only bury this feeling deep in his heart.

Fortunately, the weather was cold and there was no one outside, so no one noticed his abnormal behavior.

After Yan Jingwen left, no one talked about him anymore at the Li family, and everyone was afraid that Ye Shuning would be embarrassed.

We discussed the details of the wedding.

Li Shaozhong was worried that Ye Shuning was tired, so he said, "Xiao Ning, we can just discuss the wedding. You must be tired from the journey, so go upstairs and rest, take a shower and have a nap. I'll tell you after we've discussed it."

Ye Xingguo was also worried that his daughter would be tired. "Xiao Ning, go back to your room and rest. We are here."

Yang Jinping said, "That's right, Xiao Ning, you go and rest. I'll take Jing Yu to sleep for a while."

Ye Shuning didn't refuse anymore, "Dad, don't talk for too long, take a break."

Ye Shuning went upstairs. There was hot water in the bathroom, so she took a hot shower, changed her clothes, and went back to her room to rest. Although she had been in a sleeper berth, she hadn't rested well.

Yan Jingwen returned home after recovering from the shock. When his mother, Li Shuxian, saw her son, she looked unhappy. "Jingwen, did you go to Li's house and see Shaozhong?"

Yan Jingwen nodded weakly, "I saw it. He even invited me to his wedding."

Li Shuxian was a little surprised when she heard that Li Shaozhong was getting married. "So soon! I was wondering why the Li family was cleaning up the house and buying furniture. So it turns out Li Shaozhong is getting married. Whose daughter is this?"

Yan Jingwen looked at his mother and said, "It's Ye Shuning."

Li Shuxian was stunned for a moment, then shocked. "Ye Shuning? Didn't she disappear? Could she be back? How did the Li family find her? They actually want to marry that country girl?"

Yan Jingwen shook his head, unable to imagine how his mother could be so ignorant. He still thought Ye Shuning was the country girl from before. "What country girl? Ye Shuning is now a master's graduate from Nangang University, a senior intellectual, and a successful career woman.

Shaozhong was always with Ye Shuning when he went to Nangang. Now she has built a large family business in Nangang. The Li family is eager to marry Ye Shuning into the family immediately. You are the only one who is still so ignorant as to think that she is just a country girl.

Li Shuxian was deeply shocked by her son's words. "Impossible! Ye Shuning is just a country girl. How could she be that capable? They are probably just trying to flatter themselves."

Yan Jingwen said helplessly, "It's a lie that will be exposed sooner or later. Besides, the Li family never lies. The paper Ye Shuning published during her school years caused quite a stir in mainland China. It's all obvious."

After hearing what her son said, Li Shuxian fell into confusion and disbelief, "How is this possible? How is this possible?"

Yan Jingwen suddenly felt it was ironic. His mother had always wanted to find him a girl who was both beautiful and talented, had a good family background, a good personality, and was perfect in every way. But where could such a perfect person be found?

Moreover, he didn't like any of the girls his mother liked. Compared with Ye Shuning, they were far inferior. He was the typical loser of the watermelon to pick up the sesame seeds.

Yan Jingwen felt very tired and no longer paid attention to his mother's self-deception. He had to go back to his room and calm down.

Ye Shuning woke up and saw that it was already dusk outside. It seemed that she had slept for a long time. After getting up, Ye Shuning got dressed, went to the bathroom on the second floor to wash her face and prepared to go downstairs.

At this time, the door of the next room opened and Li Shaozhong walked out. "Xiao Ning, you're awake. Did you sleep well?"

Ye Shuning nodded. "I slept very well until now. I was just about to go downstairs to see if they need my help with dinner."

Li Shaozhong took Ye Shuning's hand and squeezed it, his eyes full of smiles, "I'll go down with you."

The two went downstairs together. Li Shaoting and his father Li Jianye were sitting on the sofa in the living room chatting.
