Old Liu was not completely secretive about Jiang Nianyan. He at least told Yu Nian the year he followed Jiang Nianyan. Yu Nian made a rough calculation and found that it happened to be after Jiang Nianyan left the Yu family.
Lao Liu said that Jiang Nianyan was kind to him. When he was almost beaten to death, Jiang Nianyan saved his life. After that, Jiang Nianyan did not appear again. He only saw Jiang Nianyan many years later. He recognized him as the young man who had saved his life.
So Old Liu had seen the past of Jiang Nian Banquet and also knew the after of Jiang Nian Banquet, but when asked again, he kept silent. He just told her, "Miss Yu, when he was not Young Master Yan, he had a very hard time trying to survive. When he was Young Master Yan, he had an even harder time trying to gain a foothold. The former could still see blood, while the latter was even more difficult. No blood can be seen.”
Yu Nian said to him, "Who has an easy life? It's just that everyone has his own destiny and suffers his own hardships."
Old Liu added, "Miss Yu, Mr. Yan has never been very close to any woman, except you."
Yu Nian asked him, "What do you think of me when you say this to me? Just because of this, I should be so moved? Should I not care about the harm he caused me? Yes, I want something from him. , my face and self-esteem were trampled under my feet when I was looking for him, so I deserve to be insulted by him, right?"
Old Liu fell silent.
Just like that, they waited until Qiao Min came.
Yu Nian felt that he had fallen into a bizarre world. Everything in front of him was not real. There were only the once prosperous Yu family, the bustling garden, his father's hearty laughter and his mother's pretending to blame, and the rest of the Yu family. Those housekeepers, nannies, maids, etc. who dare to joke with their employers are the real ones.
Sometimes Yu Nian really wished that she had just had a dream. When she woke up, she found that she was still at Yu's house, still in her own room, and her mother came upstairs in person to ask her to eat.
The knock on the door was very soft, just like my mother's always gentle temperament.
Or she hopes to go back to the past in her dream, and then she can never wake up.
After a long time, Yu Nian said to Qiao Min, "The fact that Zhang Xuanwen was able to find that place means that he also has a certain understanding of Feng Kiln."
Qiao Min was surprised when she heard this, "Zhang Xuanwen? What do you mean by finding that place?"
"It seems like, go find me."
"ah?"
In fact, Yu Nian wasn't sure.
But she did meet Zhang Xuanwen at the gate of Feng Kiln.
At that time, Lao Liu was still in the Feng Kiln and didn't know what to say to Sister Qin. Jiang Nianyan came out first with her in his arms, and Zhang Xuanwen's car rushed over, blocking their way.
Yu Nian was lying when she said she wasn't nervous. She was afraid that Zhang Xuanwen would know that Jiang Nianyan was hurt. It wasn't because she was worried about Jiang Nianyan, but because she was worried about herself. Zhang Xuanwen was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
Fortunately, Lao Liu came out quickly. After seeing Zhang Xuanwen, he stood in front of Jiang Nian Banquet and formed a confrontation with Zhang Xuanwen.
Zhang Xuanwen looked ugly and his tone was very unhappy, "You brought her to a place like this? Jiang Nianyan, are you sick?"
Jiang Nianyan ignored him and got into the car.
Zhang Xuanwen was shouting behind him, but was finally stopped by Lao Liu.
Yu Nian felt that Jiang Nianyan did not want to talk to Zhang Xuanwen from the bottom of his heart, and it had nothing to do with whether he was injured or not.
Now in the car, Yu Nian carefully recalled Zhang Xuanwen's expression when he spoke, with a questioning tone. He drove the car himself, and the car was parked very sloppily and arrogantly, as if he was in a hurry.
It will cause her to misunderstand.
Qiao Min had never been impressed by Zhang Xuanwen. In the past, she kept a distance from that person and would not provoke him if he could. After Zhang Xuanwen opened his mouth with Yu Juanzhou, Qiao Min wanted to kill Zhang Xuanwen every minute.
She only regretted that she didn't have enough power to offend people in Beijing.
"It's normal for that prodigal son Zhang Xuanwen to go to that kind of place. He's a psychopath." Qiao Min scolded. "And he can be so kind?"
Yu Nian also felt that he was overthinking. The person who once wanted to ruin the rest of Yu Juanzhou's life, and the despicable villain who ruined her reputation at the Hongyu Hall, could still have the conscience to find her in that kind of place?
It would be nice not to take the opportunity to step on it.
"In short, stay away from people like Zhang Xuanwen, and Jiang Nianyan," Qiao Min sighed, "When will you end your bad relationship with him."
Yu Nian told the truth this time, "One year."
Then he added, "If you're lucky, it can end early."
Qiao Min glanced at her. Even without looking, Yu Nian knew that there must be various complicated expressions in her eyes. She sighed, "I didn't have a choice at the beginning."
Qiao Min was silent for a long time before saying, "It's my fault, I should just--"
"Minmin." Yu Nian interrupted her softly, "Some things have already happened, so just let it go."
"You and Jiang Nianyan really can't just let things go." Qiao Min was worried to death. "Jiang Ze has never given up on you. There is another Maura on the other side of Jiang Nianyan. There is something wrong with Jiang Ze. , it’s easy for you to escape, but Maura is different, I can see that she is targeting Jiang Nianyan.”
Yu Nian was silent.
She had seen it clearly at the banquet before. Regardless of whether Maura was acting for fun at the time, her eyes looking at Jiang Nianyan were affectionate. At least in this way, she declared her soft spot for Jiang Nianyan.
There were so many ladies in the audience, but all those who still had illusions about the Jiang Nian Banquet had restrained themselves. Who dared to compete with Maura?
After a long time, Yu Nian said, "At least Jiang Nianyan won't come to me for a while in the future. Let's think of a way slowly. I don't want to offend Maura."
Maura's background aside, at least she helped her out.
-
Yu Nian was sleeping deeply when he was about to enter the city.
Qiao Min drove back to her home. She felt that although Yu Nian seemed to have calmed down along the way, she could feel the horror of the kiln closure just by listening to it. Qiao Min was still worried about Yu Nian.
It's just that Qiao Min never expected that Yu Juanzhou would come.
The car was parked in the underground garage, occupying her parking space, and came face to face with her.
Yu Nian was really frightened and fell into a deep sleep, so he had no idea what was happening outside.
Yu Juanzhou got out of the car, and Qiao Min had to get out of the car when he saw this.
"Where did she go?" Yu Juanzhou asked.
Qiao Min knew that Yu Juanzhou was nervous about Yu Nian, especially after the incident in the Yu family, Yu Juanzhou cared about Yu Nian more than ever before and wished he had to keep an eye on Yu Nian 24 hours a day.
Sometimes even Qiao Min felt that Yu Juanzhou's behavior would make people feel suffocated. She once raised her opinion with him, and Yu Juanzhou gave a reasonable reason——
"When the Yu family was booming, many men were interested in her. Now she has no backer. If I don't protect her anymore, she will be bullied even more."
Qiao Min said to him seriously, "You can't protect her forever, and she is your sister. She will protect you and she doesn't want you to waste your energy on protecting her."
Yu Juanzhou said, "I can, I can protect her for the rest of her life. As long as she is willing, I will protect her no matter what the cost."
His face looked ugly at this moment, which made Qiao Min quite embarrassed.
"You drank very late last night and went home by yourself. I asked about your assistant." Yu Juanzhou said nothing more and got straight to the point.
Qiao Min regretted that she had missed the little assistant. The little assistant liked Yu Juanzhou's looks so much that she wanted to put his photo on his desk. Naturally, Yu Juanzhou could say a few words.
Qiao Min couldn't mention the closure of the kiln in front of Yu Juanzhou. It was one thing whether he knew or not. According to his temperament, he would ask even if he didn't know, so why not explode it?
All I can say is, "Let your sister have a good rest. If you care about her, don't ask anything."
Yu Juanzhou's face never looked good and he hesitated to speak.
After a long while, he said, "I'll take her home."
"She's already asleep. She's right here with me. Why are you torturing her?" Qiao Min had a headache.
"You're not socializing tonight?" Yu Juanzhou asked.
Qiao Min was stunned for a long time and said, "If it doesn't work, I'll push it away, whatever. Don't worry, I can take good care of your sister. It's not the first time she has slept at my house."
But Yu Juanzhou always disagreed, "I don't have any social activities tonight, and I don't have to go to the company so early tomorrow morning. It's better to take care of her. Sister Min, you should just go about your business and don't delay your work."
Seeing that he was insistent, Qiao Min had no choice but to look back at the car, "What should we do? Wake her up?"
In fact, she planned to put down the passenger seat and let Yu Nian sleep for a while. It would be uncomfortable to wake up the person who had just fallen asleep immediately.
Yu Juanzhou thought for a moment and took out his car keys, "You drive my car first, and I'll drive your car back."
-
Yu Juanzhou took Yu Nian back to his home.
It's quiet here.
After this whole drive, Yu Nian was completely asleep. When Yu Juanzhou took her out of the car, she just murmured and did not wake up.
After letting her sleep in the master bedroom, Yu Juanzhou gave her a buckwheat pillow. She doesn't like soft pillows. She hates fluffy and fluffy hotel pillows the most. She hasn't liked them since she was a child. She says she feels insecure when she puts them on them.
Yu Juanzhou got used to buckwheat pillows and asked room service to change pillows every time he was in a hotel on a business trip. It's just that his pillow will be harder, so he always prepares buckwheat pillows that are soft and hard for Yu Nian.
Maybe his hands and feet could stretch, so Yu Nian subconsciously felt comfortable, turned over and fell asleep again.
Yu Juanzhou poured a glass of water on the bedside and did not leave immediately.
He sat down on the bedside and looked at the sleeping woman through the faint moonlight through the curtains. He recognized that the clothes she was wearing belonged to Qiao Min, but what about her own clothes?
Yu Juanzhou always felt vaguely uneasy, worried about her missing last night.
Obviously Qiao Min was hiding something from him.
Before entering the house, Yu Juanzhou tried to check the driving recorder, but found that a large period of time in Qiao Min's car was skipped, that is, where she went to pick up Yu Nian, and where she returned to the city after picking up Yu Nian.
During that time, Qiao Min turned off the driving recorder.
This made Yu Juanzhou even more suspicious. He could only turn off the recorder unless he was meeting someone very important or going to a very private place.
The woman on the bed was sleeping peacefully, with a few strands of her long hair sticking to her thin white cheeks. Yu Juanzhou raised his hand and gently stroked the hair from her cheek. But when his fingers touched the woman's cheek, the softness of his fingertips made him reluctant to withdraw his hand.
He gently caressed her eyebrows, her tall and delicate nose bones, and the silky smoothness of her skin blossomed at his fingertips. Yu Juanzhou's Adam's apple slid, and the light in his eyes was deep and restrained.
Maybe it was itching, so Yu Nian raised his hand and touched it, and his hand was pressed under hers.
Yu Juanzhou looked at her for a moment, remembering that when she held his hand for the first time, he thought her hand was so small and soft, so soft that it touched people's hearts.
He was very young that year and she was not very old either.
But she told him seriously, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you from now on!"
Yu Juanzhou subconsciously squeezed her hand, and he was reluctant to let go. In fact, he has always liked holding her hand since he was a child, and he feels that the feeling of holding her hand is very beautiful, just like eating honey in his mouth, and the honey can keep flowing into his heart.
But as they grew older, he and she rarely held hands.
Because of that Ayan.
Every time he wanted to hold her while going out, Ayan would always say that a ten-year-old child was an adult, and it was unsafe to hold hands.
He doesn't like Ayan very much, and this is one of the reasons.
Although Yu Juanzhou didn't know what happened last night, he could feel that Yu Nian had been greatly wronged, and he felt terribly distressed.
Before leaving, he asked Qiao Min, "It's okay if you don't say anything. I'll just ask you, has she been hurt by anyone?"
Qiao Min said, no.
The "injury" in Yu Juanzhou's words refers to the most direct physical harm. He doesn't want anything else now, as long as she has no injuries or pain. No matter what happens, he must first ensure his own safety.
He subconsciously squeezed her hand.
She frowned slightly in her sleep, and when Yu Juanzhou saw this, he quickly relaxed his grip. He raised his hand and stroked the center of her brow until her brow relaxed.
Yu Juanzhou lowered his eyes and looked at her. As he watched, he couldn't help but lower his face, and his thin lips gradually came closer to her red lips.
His breath was filled with the fragrance of a woman's lips, sweet and tempting, hooking him like a hook. He also heard his own heartbeat, hitting his eardrums time and time again. His temples swelled and hurt, and the closer he got, the faster his breathing became.
Until lips and lips are close at hand.
Yu Juanzhou reacted suddenly and sat up straight.
Yu Nian was still sleeping peacefully on the bed, unaware of what had just happened. Her sleeping posture is stretched and relaxed, which is a sign of security.
Yu Juanzhou cursed himself secretly: Yu Juanzhou, what are you trying to do while someone is in danger?
-
Yu Nian slept until the latter half of the night, and her dreams were terrible. When she opened her eyes, there was sweat on her forehead and a lot of sweat on her back. She felt terribly uncomfortable.
She sat on the bed and calmed down for a while. After all the scenes about the kiln closure in her dream disappeared, she realized where she was. She was excited, wasn't this Yu Juanzhou's bedroom?
Some scattered memories came back to her mind. She seemed to have seen Yu Juanzhou and he was driving.
I felt a little bit depressed.
I planned to look into a set of Yu Juanzhou's home clothes and change into them after showering, but I didn't want to find that the light in the study was still on. I looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already three o'clock in the morning.
Thinking that it was already dawn when Qiao Min picked her up, her sleep was really chaotic.
