"Okay, go in quickly! I'm going to see Aunt Xu." Leng Yan remembered that when they talked on the phone, she hesitated. Something must have happened, otherwise Aunt Xu wouldn't be like this.
"Okay, I got it. I'm going to prepare your favorite dish." Ye Zilin stood on tiptoes, lightly kissed his handsome face, and then turned and walked into the room.
Xu Wan was sitting on the sofa, flipping through the photo album in her hand, with a faint smile on her face, carrying beautiful memories of her past life.
"Aunt Xu." Leng Yan called softly, walked into the room and sat down on the sofa.
"Xiao Yan, you're here." Xu Wan took off her glasses and smiled slightly.
"Well, why are you looking at these old photos again?" Leng Yan glanced at the photo album aside.
"Yes! I have nothing to do, so I'll take a look." Xu Wan's eyebrows arched, and there were a few wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, which were the traces left by the years on her face.
"Xiao Yan, if I don't call you, do you plan to stay in the United States and never come back?" Xu Wan stood up, poured a cup of tea and put it in front of him.
"Aunt Xu, why don't I come back? For me, this is my home!" Leng Yan said lightly, looking out the window with her deep eyes.
Xu Wan nodded gently, "Xiao Yan, do you still think that I am your dearest Aunt Xu?"
"Of course, Aunt Xu, you are as important as my mother." Leng Yan looked at Xu Wan with firmness in her tone.
"Xiao Yan, you and Ruoxi?" Xu Wan just spoke, and Leng Yan continued.
"Aunt Xu, she and I are over." Leng Yan said very calmly.
Xu Wan sighed softly, "Xiao Yan, I know that your marriage to Ruoxi was not of your own free will, but if you let her go now, what will she do?"
"Aunt Xu, I don't want to mention her. Her future life has nothing to do with me." Leng Yan ruthlessly cleared away the relationship between the two and erased the flash of pain in her heart.
"Xiao Yan, do you know that because of your cruelty, Ruo Xi will have a hard time alone." Xu Wan looked at the photo and reached out to touch a pretty woman in a black and white photo.
"Your mother has worked so hard all the way, and I have seen everything, but because of you, Ruoxi's life may be more difficult in the future." Xu Wan thought of what she had done during the day and night she lived here.
I couldn't eat, and even when I fell asleep I had nightmares.
Her love for Leng Yan was already very deep, but he turned her away.
"Aunt Xu, what did she tell you? I gave her an apartment and a lot of money. The Jiang family's company is gone, but it's not like they can't live anymore." Leng Yan looked at the photo,
But he forcefully suppressed a certain softness in his heart.
When he met her accidentally in the hotel two days ago, for a moment, he wanted to follow his heart and take this little woman with him, no matter whether she was Leng Jingcheng's chosen daughter-in-law or not.
"Xiao Yan, let me ask you, did she live in the apartment? Did she use the money?" Xu Wan looked at Leng Yan and said cruelly, and shook his head helplessly. No matter whether the hatred in his heart disappeared or not, he was still
He will not love easily, nor will he admit his heart easily.
Leng Yan was startled. He should have thought and knew that Jiang Ruoxi would rather live in an old apartment than that apartment. She had not touched the check because he had not received any news from the bank, indicating that
The money has not been released yet.
"You may know Ruoxi better than I do, but your heart is resisting. In fact, you came back this time because you wanted to know why I called you that time, but you didn't say anything. You wanted to ask me
Yes, right?" Xu Wan closed the photo album and sighed, for Leng Yan's firmness and ruthlessness, and for Ruoxi's unknown future.
"Aunt Xu, it's okay if you don't want to say it." Does he still want to know about Jiang Ruoxi?
"No, since you are here, I think you should also know." Xu Wan said calmly, "Ruo Xi is not from the Jiang family, she is an orphan. Last time, she came here to check her life experience.
"
Orphan? "Isn't she Jiang Jianmin's daughter?" Leng Yan heard the word orphan, and his stern face was full of surprise.
Xu Wan nodded, "Yes, but nothing was found. She looked very disappointed."
After so many years, she no longer has any written information except some unclear memories of her own.
Leng Yan remained silent, listening to Xu Wan quietly, "Xiao Yan, that's what happened. I won't interfere with whatever you want to do next. I just don't want you to make the wrong decision." Xu Wan said.
Wan reached out and took his hand.
Ye Zilin was busy preparing meals in the kitchen. It turned out that as soon as she saw him, she would become extremely at ease. As long as he was there, she would be willing to go to places she didn't like.
Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table with satisfaction, she cooked all Leng Yan's favorites. Ye Zilin reached out and took off her apron, got up and walked upstairs.
"Aunt Xu, I don't want to talk about feelings." Leng Yan looked out the window. Feelings have never existed for him, and for Ye Zilin, they are just a habit. They have grown up together.
a habit.
"What about Zilin? Do you love her?" Of course Xu Wan understood Ye Zilin's feelings for Leng Yan, but what did Leng Yan think?
Leng Yan paused and said nothing.
"You don't love her, right? Since you don't love her, let her go!" Xu Wan said to him.
If he doesn't cherish what he loves, then he should let go of what he doesn't love. Otherwise, three people will be hurt in the end.
As soon as Ye Zilin arrived at the door, she heard what Xu Wan said. She leaned against the wall and clenched her little hands tightly into fists.
She knew that Xu Wan had always disliked her, let alone her being with Leng Yan. But she just fell in love with Leng Yan and couldn't help herself.
And the room also fell into silence.
Ye Zilin raised a smile and said, "Yan, you are here. I made food for you. Let's eat together!"
"Go quickly! Zilin hasn't eaten well in the past two days." Xu Wan nodded lightly, and she said what she should say. Next, she couldn't do anything, and she couldn't force her feelings.
Ye Zilin and Leng Yan sat face to face at the dining table, "Yan, you need to eat more." Ye Zilin picked up the vegetables for him.
"Why did you remember to make these today?" Leng Yan looked at the home-cooked dishes in front of him. These were not Ye Zilin's best, but dishes that Jiang Ruoxi often made.
"Aren't these bad? Don't think my cooking tastes bad." Ye Zilin smiled slightly.
Leng Yan picked up the chopsticks and asked, "How could that be?" However, when he ate it, he always felt that it was missing some taste, the taste of home, the taste of warmth, and an indescribable feeling.
Next, the two of them faced each other in silence, eating separately.
Ye Zilin looked at Leng Yan and said, "Yan, how did the meeting go well these two days?" His face was full of haggard, but it was because of work or something else.
