Chapter 149 Main World 8 "Let's try it."
"Let's try it."
Qin Wang didn't react to what Jian Ziyan was saying for a moment.
He seemed to be completely stupid, really in a state of idiocy. Even the mechanical steps under his feet stopped. He stared at Jian Ziyan blankly, with a tear hanging in the corner of his eye. His nose and eyes were red. Obviously, his aura was noble and fierce like a resting beast, but at this moment, he was like a wronged rabbit, looking at his only carrot with great desire.
After a few seconds, his eyes trembled and even his shoulders shook a little, as if his soul was shaking too.
"Xiao, Xiao Yan." He asked in a low voice, "What did you say just now?"
Jian Ziyan also stopped and turned around. There was a distance of several steps between them, so he could see Qin Wang's eyes without looking up.
"Let's give it a try." He repeated the words, "Qin Wang, I tell you frankly that my worries and concerns have not disappeared, but since I responded to you, it is destined that I can't really not care about you at all."
He was not used to revealing his inner self to others, so these words were very difficult for him to say.
"You are too good and too far away from my world. I can't pin my hopes on a person's elusive feelings.
, or it is based on feelings that are not generated in reality. But you are not simply you, I have carefully examined my heart, and finally I have to admit... I love you. "He uttered this word solemnly, his cheeks flushed a little, but he looked into Qin Wang's eyes seriously, "I love you, Qin Wang, now after two years of hard work, I finally have the confidence to say this to you."
Bright light gradually appeared in Qin Wang's pupils, as if the dazzling vitality was injected into his body again.
He stared at Jian Ziyan blankly, trying to smile with the corners of his mouth pulled behind his ears, but a tear fell from the corner of his eye.
He couldn't laugh and he cried.
Qin Wang stood there, shaking with tears all over his body, sobbing uncontrollably.
Jian Ziyan's eyebrows twitched, and a hint of soft helplessness appeared in his eyes.
He walked back, stretched out his arms and hugged Qin Wang in his arms.
His action was immediately met with a fierce response. Qin Wang reached back and held him tightly in his arms. For the first time, he did not care whether he would hurt him or not. It was as if he wanted to pass all his pain and insecurity to him, and let him feel his desire to integrate him into his bones and blood.
"I am not dreaming, Zi Yan, I am not dreaming, am I?"
Qin Wang kept repeating this sentence with a trembling voice, but he had no intention of letting him go.
"You are not dreaming." Jian Ziyan said gently, "Maybe one day you will find that I am not the person in your dreams, but no matter what the result is, I think that since we both have a sincere heart at this moment, we should not be let down."
Just after he finished saying this, his chin was lifted up by a hot hand, and then a kiss mixed with tears fell on him.
Qin Wang kissed him twice, and seemed to be crying both times.
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, the guilt that had just emerged in Jian Ziyan's heart was repelled by Qin Wang's fierce action.
He ignored the pain in his body, tilted his head back and closed his eyes.
…
The next day, the weather was extremely cloudy.
When Jian Ziyan woke up with difficulty, his eyes were dazed for a moment. The heavy curtains were drawn by the window, making him think it was still dark.
He was about to move when he was stopped by the discomfort in his body. His face turned dark and he clenched his teeth.
Damn it.
Jian Ziyan breathed carefully and slowly changed his position and lay down.
When he changed his perspective, he saw the sticky note on the bedside table.
He reached out his hand and saw some familiar words written on the hand.
"Yan Yan, I'm going to have a meeting at the company first. I'll come back to have lunch with you at noon. If you're hungry, call the front desk. I'll order some milk and a simple meal for you."
Seeing these familiar words, not only the decadence and madness of last night, but also all the entanglements in the eight worlds uncontrollably flooded into his mind. Jian Ziyan's face turned even darker, and he couldn't help but blushing.
"Who has time to wait for you to have lunch? Director, are you the only one who is busy?"
Jian Ziyan snorted softly, gently got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.
He had two main purposes for coming to Yancheng this time. One was to participate in the show, and the other was that a big client who always bought collections and jewelry from him specially invited him to have a meal together, and the time was set for noon today.
As for the conversation with Qin Wang, it was just incidental. He wanted to talk when he had the chance, and the timing was just right last night.
He didn't expect Qin Wang to come to participate in the treasure appraisal program and bring those two things... The painting was obviously made by him, and as for the bracelet, he really had no idea where he had dug it out from. He really took great pains to make it fit the story.
Jian Ziyan was thinking about these things while washing his face. When he looked up to get the towel, he couldn't help but be stunned.
His face was reflected in the mirror. Unlike before, this face had a smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. It was a smile of pure relaxation and happiness.
419's sour voice sounded: "People are different when they have a partner."
Jian Ziyan came back to his senses and naturally picked up the towel to wipe his face: "If you want it, you can find it."
"If I could find one, would I stay here with you?" 419 groaned, "I knew that sooner or later, Qin Wang would take you away..."
Jian Ziyan ignored it, tidied himself up, called a car and walked out of the hotel.
Before leaving, he did not forget to write a few words on the note.
“Remember to make an appointment in advance next time.”
After walking out of the hotel, Jian Ziyan realized that the sky was so dark. Not only could he not see the sun, there was not even much light. Ten o'clock in the morning looked like five in the morning.
The feeling of something wrong that flashed through his mind last night resurfaced. Jian Ziyan frowned and said in his mind: "Xiao Jiu, do you feel something is wrong?"
419: "No, host. I am afraid of being detected by your world consciousness, so I dare not investigate."
Jian Ziyan looked up at the sky again. At this time, the car he had arranged arrived, so he had to suppress his uneasiness temporarily.
"Help me watch the sky," he said. "I have a bad feeling, and it's damn accurate every time."
"Okay." 419 became serious.
Jian Ziyan adjusted his mood and took a car to a very famous boutique hotel in Yancheng. It was said that this hotel adopted a membership system and targeted high-end customer groups, and the big customer was exactly the senior member of this home appliance company.
At first, the doorman looked a little strange when he saw a taxi stop in front of the store, but as soon as Jian Ziyan got out of the car, his eyes immediately widened.
After watching the live broadcast on Channel No. 1, who doesn’t know Jian Ziyan now!
When the doorman thought about who was the dealer here today, he immediately looked at Jian Ziyan with curiosity.
Could it be that... all those gossips circulating on the internet are true?
Jian Ziyan found the doorman's eyes a little strange, but he didn't think much about it. He knew that he was quite famous now.
After being led to the door of the private room, he thanked politely and pushed the door open and went in.
As the host, the other party had already sat down inside in advance. When he saw him come in, he stood up gracefully, his attitude neither too enthusiastic nor too rude.
"Hello, Teacher Jian."
"Hello, Ms. Mei."
Jian Ziyan replied politely.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that after calling out this name, the eyes of this elegant and beautiful lady seemed to become softer.
"Although Teacher Jian and I have never met before, based on our level of interaction, it's not an exaggeration to say that we are old acquaintances." Mei Qingshu smiled slowly, "Maybe we can be less distant?"
"Of course, you can just call me Zi Yan or Xiao Jian." Jian Zi Yan also said with a smile.
Although the other party was well-maintained and attractive, the mature charm between her eyebrows revealed that she was not as young as she looked. Jian Ziyan certainly would not be arrogant.
"In that case, I'll be generous and you can call me Aunt Mei." Mei Qingshu sat opposite Jian Ziyan, with her chin supported by her hands, and looked at Jian Ziyan without disgust. "I'm already forty-nine years old, so I should be worthy of your calling me Aunt."
"What?" Jian Ziyan was really surprised. "Aunt Mei, you look only thirty years old."
He spoke sincerely and in a silly way, which made Mei Qingshu laugh.
"Don't be restrained, just like going home." Mei Qingshu said in a good mood, "I have already ordered some food. If there is anything you don't like, don't worry, just ask someone to take it away."
Jian Ziyan had a very good impression of Mei Qingshu.
When she was a guest, she was generous and straightforward, and never asked too many questions or wasted time on the things she liked.
Before this meeting, she had specifically asked whether she needed to arrange accommodation, after all, she was the host in Yancheng.
During this meal, Mei Qingshu asked Jian Ziyan in advance whether she had any food taboos or preferences, but Jian Ziyan was indeed not picky about food, so she could only tell her to make all the arrangements.
The two had known each other for more than a year. Their relationship was not very close, but it was definitely better than that of an ordinary buyer and merchant. Otherwise, Jian Ziyan would not have agreed to let her come for dinner alone.
Now that they met, Jian Ziyan had an even better impression of Mei Qingshu. He felt that he was valued from her. This attention was not based on his identity. Even if he didn't know Mei Qingshu's family background, he could see that she didn't need to please anyone specially. This attention was placed on him personally, which made him feel touched and relaxed.
He could see that the gentleness and satisfaction in Mei Qingshu's eyes when she looked at him were sincere.
...Wait, why does he look so satisfied?
The thought flashed through my mind.
While waiting for the food to be served, the two of them were chatting quietly, and the atmosphere was very good. Then Jian Ziyan saw that Mei Qingshu's mobile phone on the table lit up, and someone was calling.
Mei Qingshu just took a look and hung up, continuing with the previous topic.
Jian Ziyan also responded, but before he could say a few words, the phone in his pocket started vibrating.
Jian Ziyan apologized and lowered his head to look at his phone, so he didn't see that when his phone rang, Mei Qingshu on the opposite side secretly rolled her eyes.
As expected, it was Qin Wang.
Jian Ziyan hung up the phone call coldly.
The two exchanged a few more words, and the waiters began to serve the dishes one after another. Mei Qingshu had just said, "We're not in a hurry, let's eat slowly..." when the tightly closed door of the private room was opened.
A tall shadow blocked the door, making the entire private room instantly seem crowded.
Both of them turned their eyes to the newcomer at the same time, one speechless and the other shocked.
“Qin…”
Just as Jian Ziyan was about to speak out in shock, Qin Wang strode in and sat down next to him without any hesitation.
Jian Ziyan: ...
If he can't come to his senses at this point, he'll be a fool.
Sure enough, Qin Wang opened his mouth and said, "You're meeting the parents so suddenly, and you haven't informed me yet. This doesn't seem good, right, mother?"
Mei Qingshu glanced at him, then looked at Jian Ziyan's expression, and saw that he had restrained his astonishment in a short time. It seemed that he had seen through the truth. A smile flashed in his eyes, but he snorted.
"Qin Wang, don't judge others by your own standards. Xiao Yan and I had already made an appointment. It's not like I invited him after seeing the show." Mei Qingshu said, "We are acquaintances in the antique circle, but you suddenly interrupted our gathering. What do you want to do? Huh?"
Qin Wang paused, and now it was his turn to look surprised.
"Wait." He looked at Jian Ziyan and then at Mei Qingshu, "You two have known each other for a long time?"
Jian Ziyan slowly wiped his hands with a napkin.
He finally understood that it was obvious that the information from the three parties was not equal.
He didn't know about the mother-son relationship between Mei Qingshu and Qin Wang, Qin Wang didn't know about the good friend relationship between him and Mei Qingshu, and Mei Qingshu didn't know about the... relationship between him and Qin Wang.
But after the show was broadcast, Mei Qingshu probably already knew what was going on, and she took this opportunity to meet him.
Jian Ziyan replied implicitly: "Aunt Mei and I have known each other for a long time, but we just met officially today."
Qin Wang remained silent.
Mei Qingshu narrowed his eyes and said, "Why? Do you think I know you're dating behind my back and you want to act like a wicked mother-in-law and investigate your partner? I don't have that much free time."
Jian Ziyan tried not to laugh, he really liked Mei Qingshu's personality.
Qin Wang coughed awkwardly, "I didn't know the truth and disturbed your, uh, face-to-face meeting. So, I'll treat you to this meal, and I'll add more dishes for you. Besides, since I'm here, you can also take me to your face-to-face meeting."
As he spoke, his face became thicker.
Mei Qingshu rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't want to argue with you, but whether you can stay depends on the opinion of the person being treated."
Qin Wang immediately looked at Jian Ziyan eagerly.
Jian Ziyan lost his temper when he was stared at, and his face began to heat up unconsciously...
He shifted his gaze and said calmly, "Since Aunt Mei has no objection, then I have no objection either."
Qin Wang immediately smiled happily.
Mei Qingshu couldn't bear to look at his shameful appearance.
Despite the unexpected incident, the meal was still a great success and everyone was very happy.
After finishing the meal, Mei Qingshu said that as a widowed middle-aged woman she couldn't stand the dog food from young people anymore, so she called her driver and left. Her original plan to invite Jian Ziyan to see her collection was temporarily shelved.
The two juniors watched her leave, and then Jian Ziyan glanced at Qin Wang lightly.
Qin Wang immediately put on a serious face and said nothing.
Finding conversation: "Xiao Yan, you and my mother have known each other for a long time, why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't know this was your mother." Jian Ziyan said truthfully, "I have so many buyers, can I really investigate their backgrounds one by one?"
Qin Wang had already figured out this blunder. He smiled awkwardly and suddenly asked half-seriously, "Do you think mother is easy to get along with? She is the eldest daughter of the Mei family. My father doted on her a lot in his early years before he passed away. She may act and speak casually sometimes."
Jian Ziyan let out an "ah", and when Qin Wang's heart was lifted up, he smiled.
"Aunt Mei has a very good personality." He said, "She is like a mother and a friend. Qin Wang, you are so lucky."
I'm so lucky to have such a good mother.
Qin Wang understood the implication of his words, the expression on his face restrained, and his eyes revealed deep heartache.
He remembered Jian Ziyan's concern and desire for family affection in each world, but he did not expect that even in their real world, Jian Ziyan was alone.
He suddenly reached out and hugged Jian Ziyan.
He didn't care about the strange looks from passers-by, nor did he care if there were paparazzi taking pictures of them. The only thing he wanted to do was to hold this person who made him feel so distressed in his heart in his arms. He wished he could turn into a big tree, a wall, or something else so that he could protect this person forever and never let her get hurt again.
Jian Ziyan was stunned by his action, then his eyes softened and he gently hugged Qin Wang back.
…
After this meeting, Jian Ziyan returned to Rongcheng.
With his current position, he is not restricted to working in one place, but he couldn't leave his father, the director, and the orphanage, so he went back.
Qin Wang did not show any reluctance, but the night before Jian Ziyan left, he almost broke his waist.
However, Qin Wang has also made up his mind. If the mountain is not his, then I am the mountain. Even if the Qin family’s headquarters is in Yancheng, it does not mean that he will not be able to operate in Rongcheng.
However, the job relocation was a huge project, and he couldn't rush to Rongcheng immediately. He had to endure the torment of not seeing her for a thousand years and deal with the work in a miserable way.
He sent his assistant Xia Han to the branch in Rongcheng, so that he could often deliver things to Jian Ziyan and be responsible for the handover of work.
After Jian Ziyan returned to Rongcheng, he dealt with work for a few days. After he finally got some free time, he took a taxi to the orphanage.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to take the bus because his worth has increased, but with his current fame, the possibility of being recognized when going to crowded places is too great, and once recognized, it will be difficult to get away.
He came to Ye Bin's office and met the old man's understanding gaze.
"I just thought it was time for you to come over, Xiao Yan."
Jian Ziyan's face turned slightly red, but he said very naturally: "Dean Dad, I came here this time just to tell you that I am in love. When he comes to Rongcheng next time, I will bring him to see you."
Ye Bin looked at him with relief and hidden worry. He didn't ask too many questions, but just asked: "Are you happy with him?"
Jian Ziyan returned the look with an affirmative look.
"I am very happy, Father Dean," he said. "I have never been happier in the past twenty-two years."
"That's good." Ye Bin said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, the 15 million yuan before was also given by President Qin, right?"
"Yes, I have already returned the money to him." Jian Ziyan no longer concealed it, "I'm sorry for lying to you at that time."
"You don't want me to worry, good boy." Ye Bin touched Jian Ziyan's head lovingly, feeling a little sad and emotional. "After so many years, you finally learned to live for yourself. I'm very happy, Xiaoyan."
Jian Ziyan said: "Dean Dad, don't say that..."
"Some things can't be ignored just because I don't say them." Ye Bin said, "Xiao Yan, you don't have to worry about me now, and you don't have to be trapped here forever. Your life has just begun, and you have a very broad road ahead. You have to learn to let go of the past and move forward with big strides."
"Dean dad..." Jian Ziyan's eyes turned red, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Ye Bin looked helpless, he knew what a stubborn child Jian Ziyan was, he just thought that he might come up with a new idea after meeting his partner.
The two sat and talked for a while, and then under Jian Ziyan's disapproving gaze, Ye Bin personally sent Jian Ziyan to the door of the orphanage.
"You can't sit all the time, you can walk around." Ye Bin said with a smile, "I just don't know what's wrong with the weather recently. It's already spring, but it's still so gloomy. It feels like a blizzard will come at any time."
Jian Ziyan's mouth stiffened for a moment, then he looked up at the sky calmly.
His premonition was correct. The sun has never come out since that day.
Even though the weather bureau had issued a statement saying it was a natural phenomenon, the sun had never been out for such a long time and some people were starting to get uneasy.
However, he couldn't say these words to Ye Bin. Jian Ziyan said goodbye to him and was about to leave.
At this moment, the voice of 419 sounded urgently.
"Host, something is wrong in the sky—"
Jian Ziyan paused, and there was no need for 419 to explain the rest.
Suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound in the sky. He looked up and saw a long and narrow crack in the sky, as if a giant hand had torn the sky apart with its bare hands. The crack was pitch black without any light at all.
At the same time, a cold wind blew out from the cracks. Wherever the wind blew, plants died instantly, the ground froze instantly, and everything was frozen into a layer of crystal ice.
"Not good!" 419 said in a horrified voice, "This... this is..."
419's voice was drowned out by distant screams.
The crack continued to expand, and in a flash it had spread to the sky above the orphanage. A hurricane poured out from it, and Ye Bin, who was standing nearby, could not stand and was lifted off the ground and into the air!
Jian Ziyan grabbed Ye Bin and turned to yell at the orphanage, "Everyone, go in! Quickly!"
He carried Ye Bin on his back, struggling to pull the child who was about to fly away, and finally got everyone back into the building amidst the crying.
Everyone was frozen to the point of almost losing control of their limbs. Jian Ziyan was the only one who could still move and stay conscious. He closed the rolling door and immediately went to get some clothes and hot water.
419's shivering voice kept echoing in his ears.
"Host, this is a crack in time and space. Another world has collided with your world's coordinates. This is an attack launched by that world."
Jian Ziyan's eyes were deep: "What will happen if this crack spreads to the entire sky?"
"You're so smart, you should be able to guess it." 419 said, "The gloom these days should be your world's consciousness trying to resist, but the other world is obviously better... It doesn't even need to spread to the entire sky. As long as this crack expands to a certain extent, the people and creatures on the other side will be able to attack your world at will... At that time, it will be the end of this world."
It felt a little scared when it said these words, but what frightened it even more was that Jian Ziyan did not show any panic.
It knows how much Jian Ziyan cares about this world. Now that the world is in danger, how can he remain indifferent?
Jian Ziyan listened in silence, his hands moving non-stop to warm up Ye Bin, the teachers and the children. After they regained consciousness, he walked to the window and took a look.
The cracks spread at an alarming speed, and in a short while, the area had become completely dark.
"How long will it take?" Jian Ziyan asked, "How long will it take before it spreads to the point where it can be attacked?"
"Based on the degree of damage, we should have another twenty minutes." 419 said reluctantly, "Host, I checked. The world you are colliding with this time is a violent/turbulent world, and its world rating is much higher than yours. You have no chance of winning."
"Twenty minutes." Jian Ziyan repeated in a low voice.
He opened the long-missed task panel, and as expected, saw that the place where it originally showed C had once again turned into a string of asterisks.
"Aren't you responsible for handling this kind of thing?" he asked, "Will the collision of worlds cause trouble for your management?"
"It's too late... Host." 419 whispered, "I have reported it immediately, but according to the process, it will take at least a day from investigation to sending people to deal with it. What will the world become by then..."
Yes, what will the world be like in one day?
Jian Ziyan stood in front of the window, watching the frost flowers climbing up the window frames and glass. The ground began to freeze and the air became colder than before. Even if people took shelter in the buildings, they could not escape the danger of being frozen.
He sighed softly.
"Xiao Yan... Xiao Yan." Ye Bin called him with a trembling voice, "Are you okay? Are you okay?"
For some reason, Ye Bin looked at Jian Ziyan's back as he stood alone in front of the window, and suddenly felt a palpitation as if he was about to lose him.
"I'm fine, Dean Dad." Jian Ziyan turned around and walked back. He calmly buttoned up Ye Bin's cotton coat and said, "I'm going to go out for a while. You guys stay here and hide well. No matter what happens, don't go out."
Ye Bin asked anxiously: "Xiao Yan, what are you going to do?"
Jian Ziyan smiled and said, "I'm going home to get something. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Ye Bin was even more anxious: "What can be more important than life at this time? Xiao Yan? Xiao Yan——"
For the first time, Jian Ziyan ignored Ye Bin's call. He pulled up the rolling door and walked out, then turned around and closed the door tightly.
As soon as he went out, he was immediately enveloped by a cold hurricane and it was pitch black all around. He took out his cell phone, but found that it had automatically turned off due to the low temperature.
He paused, then put it back.
Originally he wanted to say goodbye to Qin Wang, but now it seems that they are not destined to be together.
"Host, what are you going to do?" 419 keenly sensed something and asked in horror.
Jian Ziyan did not answer. He walked forward a few steps against the cold wind. Suddenly, when he passed by a tree, he noticed someone hugging it tightly.
He wanted to rescue the person immediately, but he didn't expect that the person turned out to be an acquaintance.
"Xia Han?"
Jian Ziyan's voice was drowned in the howling cold wind.
"Teacher Jian!" Xia Han was obviously frightened. "I was asked by President Qin to come here to deliver something, but the things were blown away!"
"It's okay. I'll take you to the door." Jian Ziyan's slender body burst out with strength that was inconsistent with his size. He dragged Xia Han and pulled her into the orphanage. "Once you go in, don't come out again."
Xia Han had become as stiff as a log. When he was stuffed into the rolling door by Jian Ziyan and saw him leaving again, he shuddered and shouted.
"Teacher Jian, what are you doing? Don't run around. Boss Qin will definitely come find you!"
Jian Ziyan paused as he was about to open the door, said something, and then resolutely closed the door again.
419 heard clearly what he said: "When Qin Wang comes, remember to tell him that I was the first one to let him down."
"Xiaojiu."
Jian Ziyan's voice was calm and clear.
"Open the store, I want to exchange it."
