Chapter 107 : it’s that kind of relationship
“but you’ve met her a few times, and your memory of her is still fuzzy. i don’t think she’s a very good playmate of yours.”
“it’s not when i was young. according to my age, when she was ten, i was already sixteen!”
shi yan was helpless.
su mu’s change was greater than she had imagined. he would not have spoken so childishly before.
right now, he looked as if he couldn’t talk to her properly out of spite.
“that’s not the main point.” shi yan said.
Su mu took a look at her and saw that she was indeed interested in this, so he became more normal. he adjusted his expression and sat up straight, looking like a calm person with an imposing manner.
“she’s a childhood playmate. her name is ye ning. the ye family has been in power for a long time. the su family, the jing family, the han family, and the ye family have good relationships. But ye ning is young and I don’t get to hang out with her. She is closer to the children of family Jing.”
it was more than just not playing together.
Shi Yan knew clearly that su mu, who had been aware of his responsibilities since he was young, was actually a mature teenager. When others were playing, he was studying and had almost no time to play.
“decline?”
su mu nodded. ” about nine years ago, madam ye and her lover embezzled a large sum of money from the ye family. that sum of money was supposed to be invested in a big project. at that time, the ye family was not in a good situation. that project was related to the survival of the ye family. ”
“Originally, the situation wasn’t irredeemable. Based on the relationship between the ye family and our families, we definitely wouldn’t sit by and do nothing. However, uncle ye and Madam ye have always had a very good relationship.”
At this point, su mu sighed, ” “Madam ye’s betrayal was a huge blow to uncle ye. He had a stroke in a fit of anger.”
“Uncle ye only has one daughter, ye ning. at that time, ye ning was only ten years old, and she was pampered since she was young. she couldn’t bear such a big responsibility at all.”
” as long as it’s a family business, there will always be internal disputes. taking advantage of uncle ye’s absence, the ye group’s internal structure was divided, and not long after, each of them formed a family. ”
“I heard that a very loyal old man by uncle ye’s side left with uncle ye and ye ning. No one knows where they went.”
shi yan remained silent for a long time.
She wasn’t someone who would easily sigh at the misfortune of others, but at this time, she couldn’t help but feel emotional.
she seemed to have changed a little ever since she came to haicheng.
She had someone she liked, friends, and now a few roommates she got along well with.
slowly, her emotions began to be affected by these people.
she didn’t care about what she was wearing, so she started to dress herself up, just so that the man would look at her with surprise. She, who never paid much attention to other people’s Affairs, began to care about other people’s Affairs. She was afraid that Jiang Rui would get hurt, so she protected Jiang Rui and even comforted her.
Now, even things that might be related to her roommates seemed to be starting to affect her emotions.
Su mu saw that her expression seemed to be a little different from usual and said, ” “why do you have such an expression?”
“I saw that you were interested in these old things so I told you, not to let you be sad. Besides, Yanyan, it’s really not like you to be sad over someone else’s matter.”
“i’m not sad. i’m just a little emotional,” shi yan said with a faint smile.
there were few people in this world who didn’t suffer.
let’s not talk about those far away, just su mu, who was sitting opposite her.
At the age of six, her father died in a car accident, and she and her mother relied on each other.
” cousin, i’ll go to the su family’s house to see my aunt after the military training is over. ”
su mu was very surprised to hear her say that.
Shi Yan looked at him and smiled. I had planned to go to the SU family’s house after the military training. You came to find me first.
After staring at her for a moment, su mu said,”i still don’t dare to tell my mom about you being in haicheng. My mom has liked you since you were young. She’ll be very happy to see you.”
“At least you still have some conscience!”
“Since you still have a bit of conscience, I won’t pursue the matter of you cutting off contact with us all these years and not even sending a letter to your family.”
How could su mu not understand Shi Yan’s concerns?
but he was still angry.
so what if it was the shi family?
even if he might be pressured by the shi family after falling out with them, he was not afraid! He and his mother had the same idea back then. Since the Shi family could not tolerate Yanyan, they would bring her to the SU family.
Who would have thought that by the time he and his mother received the news and rushed over, Yanyan had already disappeared.
It was not that they had not looked for her, but with the obstruction of the Shi family, they could not find her at all!
Later on, the Shi family really did put pressure on the SU family.
however, they did not give up on looking for yanyan.
it was their aunt who came to see them and told them not to look for her. she said that yanyan left on her own and even if they found her, yanyan would not come back. that was why they gave up looking for her.
she was a ten-year-old girl who had grown up in a small circle. no matter how mature and sensible she was, how could she not want to go home?
she didn’t want to come back because she couldn’t.
however, the difference in power between the su family and the shi family was too great. the su family could not interfere much in the internal affairs of the shi family. otherwise, it would be difficult for eldest aunt. that was why they did not quarrel with the shi family.
However, ever since Yanyan left, they had very little contact with the Shi family. They even had very little contact with their aunt.
both he and his mother thought that as long as yanyan was back, they would bring her to the su family even if they had to face the shi family directly.
however, yanyan never returned.
afraid that the su family would get involved, she was so heartless as to cut off all contact with them for nine years! She didn’t even plan to contact them when she came to Haicheng!
Shi Yan smiled and didn’t answer him.
just then, the waiter brought the dishes up. shi yan wiped the chopsticks clean and handed them to su mu.”Let’s eat.”
Shi Yan took off her military training cap as soon as she sat down. At this time, her hair was tied up in a high ponytail and was slightly messy. She was also wearing a large camouflage suit, but even so, her unique elegant charm was not hidden at all.
looking at shi yan like this, su mu’s heart unconsciously calmed down, no matter how much trouble he had.
she was too indifferent when she was indifferent, making people feel that the clamor around them was no longer there, and their troubled hearts were unconsciously calmed down.
“yes, let’s eat,” he said with a smile as he took the chopsticks from her.
Su MU’s sitting posture and faint smile were indeed somewhat similar to Shi Yan’s. It was no wonder that Jing Hailan would think of su mu when he saw Shi Yan.
during the meal, there were several times when su mu wanted to ask shi yan how she had been all these years, but he stopped himself every time the words reached his mouth.
so what if he asked?
it would only add to each other’s worries.
now that she was back, well and well, and they would be able to see each other in the future, that was enough.
Since she had returned, he would never let her disappear again.
However, she probably would not disappear again. She was especially different from the man who had sent her to school yesterday.
As he thought about it, su mu stopped picking up food and looked at Shi Yan.”yanyan, have you been living in the jiang family’s house since you came to haicheng?”
Shi Yan nodded.
“Did the Jiang family send you to school yesterday?”
shi yan stopped eating and asked with a faint smile,”cousin, you want to ask who sent me to school, right?”
Having his thoughts exposed, su MU’s expression was a little unnatural.
“Your car was following us yesterday,” Shi Yan said with a smile.
Su MU’s expression became even more unnatural.
“you … you found out?”
“It’s so obvious, it’s hard not to notice.”
it was just that she didn’t know it was his car at first and thought he was following jiang cheng.
“since cousin followed me here yesterday, you must have seen the person who sent me to school.”
“That’s right, we are the kind of relationship that cousin is thinking of.”
She spoke so bluntly that su mu, who was prepared to question her, was instantly rendered speechless.
