"Ying Kexin...you..."
"curator!"
The curator, Shi Yan's aunt, appeared behind them.
When she appeared, other colleagues who had gathered around to eat melon quickly returned to their workstations.
The two people turned around and saw that their aunt's face looked ugly, as if she had eaten a fly.
Shi Yan quickly stood in front of Ying Kexin and said without flinching: "Auntie, if you have anything to say, come to me."
"Shi Yan! Come with me!"
The aunt shouted angrily, turned around, and walked to the side.
Shi Yan turned around and nodded to Ying Kexin, seeming to reassure her, although he followed her closely.
In the office.
"Can you please explain what's going on? I heard that you often come to the art museum, and you beat Mr. Duan's son not long ago. What are you thinking?"
The aunt tried her best to speak to him calmly, but after the scene just now, her tone couldn't help but contain some anger.
After all, Ying Kexin will be her daughter-in-law in the future, but now she is involved with her nephew.
Shi Yan answered without any concealment.
"As you can see, I like Ying Kexin."
"What? Are you crazy?" Although he guessed it, he still shouted in surprise. "Please wake up. She and Chang'an are getting engaged. What's going on? How could something like this happen in our family?"
"I know, so I'm holding back now. Within a day, I had many thoughts of taking her away and running away, but I didn't do that. I'm enduring it, and I'm holding on a little longer."
The aunt sighed and took two steps back and forth in front of him.
"Are you really crazy? There are many news reports about their engagement. Everyone in Nanhu knows about it, but who can you do with you? I don't know how far you can endure it."
"I also want to know how far I can endure it?" Shi Yan put his hands in his pockets, took a step back, leaned against the wall, and sighed deeply. "If that person wasn't Chang'an, if he wasn't his cousin, if he didn't care about the reputation of the Shi family, I would have taken her away long ago."
As he said that, he looked out the window. The sunset was really beautiful.
"I like her. I've said all that needs to be said. I'm leaving first."
He turned around and opened the door. Before he could go out, his aunt's voice came from behind, causing him to stop.
"Shi Yan, aunt doesn't want to get involved in the affairs of your younger generation. If you really like her, you can go to your grandfather about this matter. That's all aunt can do."
He turned around and chuckled.
"Thank you, aunt."
After walking out of the office, Shi Yan did not look for Ying Kexin immediately. Instead, he came to the door of the art museum and leaned against the car.
I thought, it's almost time to get off work anyway, let's wait until after get off work.
Many people have already left after get off work one after another. Ying Kexin is still the same as before, as if she is the only employee in the entire art museum. She has never finished her work and has not yet come out.
Ying Kexin didn't expect to get off work yet, but she did expect a phone call.
A phone call that I had to answer.
"I see."
He simply answered these four words, returned to the car, and drove away.
Ying Kexin watched his car leave and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the Shi family mansion, Shi Yan and his grandfather were sitting face to face.
Grandpa picked up the tea cup in front of him and drank the tea slowly.
Shi Yan watched his grandfather put down the tea cup and then said, "Just pretend that the engagement never happened? It's the woman I dated."
"Aren't you not ready for marriage?"
Grandpa asked calmly.
"That was before."
"When I called you last time, you said you weren't ready and didn't think about getting married, so I didn't even come back when I asked you to come back. Anyway, I've loved playing since I was a child. If I haven't played enough, I'll just play. How has it changed so quickly? "
"grandfather……"
"Forget it, because it's in the past." Grandpa interrupted Shi Yan. "Because you didn't show up, Chang An said that he could get engaged to this woman. Grandpa never forced you to get married. Chang An did it voluntarily. Now that everyone knows, you can just pretend that it never happened. Anyway, you There were so many women in the past, but I don’t care about this one.”
"grandfather!"
Shi Yan stood up suddenly.
Grandpa raised his head slowly, with a displeased expression on his face.
"Are you crazy? Which woman can have such a face? You must discredit the family."
Shi Yan sighed and sat down again.
"Didn't you call me here because you expected something like this to happen? Anyway, I didn't expect to get your permission. Anyway, my grandfather is not satisfied with anything I do since I was a child."
Upon hearing this, the expression on Grandpa's face became even more ugly.
Normally, this face seemed to have no change of expression no matter what happened, but today there were many expressions of displeasure.
"Shi Yan! You gave up at the beginning, but now you want to take it back. Love is not possession. You have not lost it, so you don't understand love. You must respect the child who has made up his mind. If her choice is yours, if it is If you're in love, you won't agree to an engagement. Once it's over, let it be."
"If it is something that will be forgotten in the past, is it still love? Just like my grandfather said, I have never lost anything in my life, so there is no need for me to lose something so precious. I will not lose it, if it is love It should be held firmly.”
After hearing this, Grandpa laughed.
Five years have passed, and Shiyan has indeed changed a lot.
"I respect the choice of all of you, so you must also respect that child. Go and ask her. If she also agrees to cancel the engagement, and if Chang'an has no objection, then do as you say. "
"Goodbye Grandpa."
Shi Yan stood up, nodded, and left politely.
That night.
His car was parked downstairs of Ying's house.
Sitting in the car, I called Ying Kexin and heard from my cell phone: [Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be connected temporarily. 】
Because he went to the art museum today to look for her regardless, but his aunt found him and stopped answering his calls.
"Really, not a stalker."
Shi Yan's hand hammered on the steering wheel, shaking in pain. He gripped the steering wheel tightly and lay on it.
"Ying Kexin, you can really make me look like a fool."
It seemed like my whole body was numb.
"I can treat you better!"
…
"I should have been nice to you a long time ago."
…
"Ying Kexin, please, just once, even just once."
Shi Yan lay on the steering wheel and muttered to himself.
He had experienced countless regretful things, but this time, he felt the most regretful and painful.
Why does it hurt so much if you like someone?
"Boom!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the glass.
Shi Yan was so startled that he suddenly raised his head and saw a familiar figure through the car window.
