As if her lie had been discovered, Jiang Nan tensed up subconsciously for a moment and looked at Zhou Zhengan who was closest to her.
There was no reaction on Zhou Zhengan's face, but he could hear the voice on the phone. He just shook his head gently at Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan received it and immediately said to the other side of the phone: "No, it's really serious."
After another few seconds of silence, Su Jinyue's low and tired voice came: "Okay, send me the ward number and I'll go see him."
Jiang Nan named a series of numbers.
Before hanging up the phone, Su Jinyue asked again: "Did he say why he jumped from the building?"
Jiang Nan raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Ningyuan. His eyes looked over for a long time, full of nervousness and expectation.
She said: "I don't know, but it's probably for you."
"......good."
The phone hung up and there was a "beep beep beep" sound.
Jiang Ningyuan immediately said: "How is it? Did she say come?"
"Come." Jiang Nan replied.
Jiang Ningyuan's face suddenly relaxed, and he lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was planning.
At this time, Jiang Youan came over with a peeled apple. He handed the apple to Jiang Nan: "Sister-in-law, eat some."
Jiang Nan took it and said, "Thank you."
"Hey, cut another one."
Jiang Youan looked at Jiang Ningyuan: "What are you doing? Do you still want to eat?"
"Tsk, it's for your other sister-in-law." Jiang Ningyuan said dissatisfied: "That's your real sister-in-law, don't you know?"
"knew."
"Forget it, wait for a while, wait until she comes before cutting it." Jiang Ningyuan grumbled again and said: "Otherwise the sweetness has dried up, how can it still be delicious?"
"..."
Zhou Zhengan straightened his steps, put a hand in his pocket and said, "Then let's go first, we'll wait for the big show next time."
Jiang Ning glanced at him far away and said, "Okay, when the time comes to get married, I'll let you be the first in line."
Zhou Zhengan chuckled lightly and didn't say anything. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Nan to signal that they were leaving.
Zhou Zheng'an is not someone who likes to watch the excitement. When Su Jinyue comes, there will inevitably be another emotional drama. Jiang Youan can be regarded as a relative, so it's okay to stay. That kid has a sweet mouth, and he might be able to persuade him at the critical moment. sentence.
But as a couple, it would be better for them to move some space at this time.
Otherwise, I'm afraid it will affect the space for emotional expression.
When Jiang Nan and Zhou Zhengan walked out of the ward, they could smell the smell of disinfectant in the corridor, which was not unpleasant.
While walking, Jiang Nan asked Zhou Zheng'an, "Does Sister Jinyue and Brother Ningyuan have any conflicts at home? How could it be so serious that they want to jump off the building?"
The first half of the sentence was guessed by Jiang Nan. She was not one to ask too many questions, but Sister Jinyue was very kind to her, so her questions naturally increased a lot. She wondered if there was anyone who could help them.
Zhou Zhengan glanced at her and said "hmm", and then said: "Su Jinyue's family is in business. They used to be a cooperative relationship. Later, due to interests, the relationship between the Su family and the Jiang family broke up. .
The Su family seemed to have done some things that were not very good for the Jiang family. Jiang's mother hated Su Jinyue so much that she did not want her to be her daughter-in-law. "
However, Jiang Ningyuan was obsessed with Su Jinyue and often opposed the family. Jiang's mother was almost furious and her opposition became more and more serious.
Perhaps the two of them had changed their approach, instead of confronting each other head-on, and instead followed the family's wishes, and their relationship would have been smoother. After all, most people are soft-spoken and treat their younger generation more favorably.
Both are hard-tempered.
"But these were all business matters more than ten years ago. In fact, they probably have little to do with the younger generation." Zhou Zhengan continued.
"So this time, Mother Jiang agreed?" Jiang Nan asked.
"Well, her most precious son has done something like jumping off a building. How can she disagree?" Zhou Zheng'an said calmly: "You don't have to think too much. Jiang Ning has no choice but to take this step away. Words can't explain it, so just We can only rely on action, and although this action method is not quite right, for families like theirs, it is the most effective and direct."
If words alone were effective, it wouldn't have lasted nearly ten years.
Jiang Nan listened, feeling vaguely sad for Su Jinyue and Jiang Ningyuan. I heard that they had been together since college, and they must have spent many difficult years together.
"Jiang Nan." Zhou Zhengan glanced down at her and suddenly called her name.
Jiang Nan didn't look up and responded in a low voice: "Huh?"
"Why did you call Jiang Ningyuan just now?"
These words came out of the blue, and Jiang Nan didn't react for a moment. She looked up at him with doubts in her eyes.
There was a smile in Zhou Zhengan's eyes, a weird and unpredictable smile. He said thoughtfully: "If I remember correctly, you called him Brother Ningyuan, right?"
"What's wrong?" Jiang Nan asked. Jiang Ning was far older than him.
"Why have I never heard you call me Brother Zheng'an?"
So that's it.
Jiang Nan muttered: "It doesn't matter."
The two stopped in front of the elevator door. Zhou Zhengan reached out and pressed the downward arrow. The elevator indicated that it was descending. It was currently on the twenty-fourth floor. The floor they were on was the seventh floor.
"I'm about the same age as Jiang Ning. I suddenly remembered that when you first met me, you called me Zhou Zheng'an. Why, don't I look like brother?"
He folded his hands and turned around to look at Jiang Nan leisurely.
Jiang Nan was speechless. To be honest, she didn't know why. When she saw Zhou Zheng'an, she just couldn't call her brother and felt a little ashamed for no reason.
But if this word is applied to others, it will be very smooth and natural.
She couldn't say it, so she just stopped talking, trying to ignore the topic, staring at the elevator door, as if she was seriously waiting for the elevator to arrive.
Zhou Zhengan looked at the little expression on her face and suddenly felt a little funny.
Does this person know that her thoughts are all on the surface and she doesn't hide them at all? Even pretending to be serious is like a student sitting in the classroom avoiding the teacher who came to inspect, so she pretends to be serious Looking at the blackboard, my peripheral vision still drifts in the direction of the teacher from time to time.
Jiang Nan was still feeling lucky that Zhou Zhengan didn't bring up this topic again, as if it was true as he said, he just suddenly thought of it and asked.
Jiang Nan didn't know much about the aftermath of Su Jinyue and Jiang Ningyuan's stay in the hospital, but Jiang Youan mentioned it during a gathering later, saying that the two of them would say harsh words with a cold face at one moment, and cry with a different face at the next. Yes, the result is good anyway.
We finally reconciled, this time completely, and the wedding date has been set, just a few days after the Spring Festival.
The wedding was very lively. Su Jinyue organized everything herself. The wedding dress was made according to her style. She also decorated the wedding venue herself. The style was very distinctive and beautiful.
Both parents were present at the wedding. No one noticed the fact that the two parents did not communicate. Everyone had a great time.
Jiang Nan originally thought that Gu Shengwei would come back to be Su Jinyue's bridesmaid this time, but she didn't. She and Zhou Zheng'an really never saw Gu Shengwei again.
When the days were short, her name would still be heard from time to time at everyone's gatherings. Later, the name gradually disappeared from everyone's mouth, and everyone got used to her absence.
Jiang Nan knew that she had a foreign boyfriend, but he had never heard of her marriage.
On the night of Jiang Ningyuan's wedding, Zhou Zhengan held back a lot of wine for him, almost returning all the wine he held for Jiang Ningyuan last time.
However, Zhou Zhengan was not drunk at all. Even when he was drunk, he looked cool and at ease, and no one could tell.
Jiang Youan drank so hard that he still said to Zhou Zhengan: "Brother, you have a really good drinking capacity." Then he fell down and lay on the table unable to get up.
Zhou Zhengan stood upright, neither speaking nor moving.
On the other side, Jiang Ningyuan was wearing a groom's uniform and was being pulled by his elders to talk.
Su Jinyue was at another table, chatting happily with her sisters.
The wedding banquet lasted until past eleven o'clock at night, and ended with Jiang Ningyuan himself being drunk down.
Su Jinyue went to pull him and said to Jiang Nan: "You guys go back first. Nan Nan, can you drive?"
Jiang Nan nodded.
"Okay, just drive Zhou Zheng'an's car and take him back." Su Jinyue said. Jiang Ningyuan hung a hand around her neck and kept leaning towards her face. Su Jinyue waved her hand and hit him.
Jiang Nan didn't like this scene. She turned around and glanced at Zhou Zhengan who was standing not far behind her. Zhou Zhengan had a calm face. He didn't look like he was drunk. She didn't think much and walked over. .
"Give me the car keys and let's go home."
Jiang Nan stretched out her hand to Zhou Zhengan, and Zhou Zhengan put the car key on her palm. Everything was normal.
"Let's go." Jiang Nan said and walked out the door. Zhou Zhengan quickly followed, lowering his eyes and holding Jiang Nan's hand. Jiang Nan couldn't help but look at him again. Apart from the smell of alcohol on her body, she really It was not obvious that he was drunk.
"Are you drunk?" she asked him uncertainly.
Zhou Zhengan shook his head.
Jiang Nan nodded, believing what he said.
Zhou Zhengan was very quiet all the way home.
Until, arrived at the door of the house.
Jiang Nan took out her house key and opened the door. After opening the door, she walked in first without paying attention to Zhou Zhengan who came in behind.
In the dark room, Jiang Nan reached out and groped around on the wall to find the light button. As soon as her fingers touched a raised spot, she raised her eyes and was about to press it when the man behind her suddenly pressed against hers. He grabbed the hand that pressed the switch from her back and held it all the way to her waist.
The man's breath was close to her ears, enveloping her with a strong smell of alcohol.
It was strange that the smell of alcohol came from him, mixed with a fresh smell, which somehow became less unpleasant.
The lights in the room were still off and it was dark.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Nan's heart was tense and her heart was beating fast.
The man's thin and dense kisses fell on her neck, and he kissed upwards to Jiang Nan's ears. Jiang Nan's ears were sensitive. At this time, she felt itchy and shy, so she kept moving forward.
Zhou Zhengan held her hand and hugged her tightly, and she couldn't avoid it.
"No more lights, huh?"
