One Thousand and Seventy-Nine Forgiveness (II)
Shu Nian felt a little sad when he thought about how little time he would spend with his father in the next five years. However, he didn't want Ye Yan to see it, so he just raised his lips and smiled, "My dad already knows about my divorce from Xiang Muyang, so I don't have to be homeless in the future."
Ye Yan's hand clasped her slender neck. Hearing her words, the strength of his palm tightened, "You know that you will never be homeless. You can live with me."
Shu Nian just leaned on his shoulder quietly and let him hold her like this without saying anything.
Naturally, there was no way to sleep here at night, so Ye Yan drove her back to his place.
The next day.
Sunlight penetrates the curtains and shines into the room. Ye Yan's hand subconsciously reached to the side. There was nothing there, which made him startled for a moment, and then he woke up completely.
"Every year."
"Shun Nian?"
He called twice, but no sound from the whole room responded to him. He rubbed his hair, grabbed the watch on the bedside and looked at the time. It's around 9 o'clock. Where has she been so early?
He took his cell phone, dialed her number, and walked out. In the dining room, there was breakfast. Apparently she had been out for a while and the breakfast was a little cold.
Over there, her cell phone was also connected.
"Are you going back to your place?" Ye Yan sat down and took a sip of porridge.
"No. Tingting and I are together. I'll talk to you later." Shu Nian only said this and hung up the phone in a hurry.
the other side.
Shu Nian pushed the photos and household registration book into the window and paid again.
"You should be able to get a replacement passport within 20 days, right?" she asked the staff at the counter.
"Yes. You can pick it up within a week if you want it urgently."
Shu Nian breathed a sigh of relief. However, my heart felt empty. It was hard for her to imagine how Ye Yan would react if he knew that he was applying for a new certificate and that he would eventually leave.
"What's wrong? It's all done, why do you still look so depressed?" Xiong Wanting held Shu Nian's hand and came out of the Public Security Bureau.
"……nothing.
"
"Can't you let go?" Xiong Wanting comforted her, "When I wanted to go to school in the past, I couldn't let go of my parents. At first, when I couldn't adapt, I cried awkwardly all day long. However, the opportunity to go to school was not something we spent. It took several years of hard work to get it. You can’t just go because you don’t want to, right?”
Shu Nian still remained silent.
Xiong Wanting looked at her for a long time and said, "...Tingting, could it be that you really can't let go of Ye Yan?"
Shu Nian's heart tightened, "I haven't discussed this matter with Ye Yan yet. So...if he asks you or Hu Yang, don't let it slip."
"Are you going to leave without telling him?"
"...He has already confiscated my passport. If I tell him again, maybe..." Shu Nian sighed, "Maybe he can also cancel my admission notice. I don't want to think about the last twenty days. Still arguing with him.”
Xiong Wanting thought for a while, "Ye Yan has been very willful since he was a child. When he is angry, he can do anything. However, if you just leave without saying a word, won't he be even more angry? Then ...What if he wants to break up?”
Shu Nian doesn't know anymore.
My heart was at a loss, and my chest felt uncomfortable. For a long time, Ye Yan's words, 'If you dare to leave, we will break up' echoed in her mind, tearing at every nerve in her.
Shu Nian pursed his lips, "Let's take you and Hu Yang to the airport first. I'll make other plans later."
————
When Shu Nian accompanied Xiong Wanting to the airport, Hu Yang was already waiting at the airport. What surprised Shu Nian was that Ye Yan was also there.
Two people were sitting in a coffee shop, not knowing what they were talking about. From Shu Nian's perspective, Ye Yan's mood was not very good. It was Hu Yang who was talking across from him, and he only occasionally took a few sips of coffee.
Shu Nian was startled and pinched Xiong Wanting, "Does Hu Yang know that I am going to study?"
"I know. I've already told him about such a big thing."
"Then did you tell him not to mention it to Ye Yan?"
Xiong Wanting bit her lip and shook her head, "Didn't you just tell me to keep silent? I...I haven't had time to tell him yet. He shouldn't talk nonsense, right?"
"With the relationship between the two of them, they must have said everything." Shu Nian was a little anxious, and he didn't know whether he was really afraid that Ye Yan would force him to stay, or whether he was afraid that Ye Yan would be angry when he found out.
"The key is...Hu Yang also knows that I will accompany you to apply for certificates today!"
Shu Nian's heart sank. Leaving Xiong Wanting behind, she walked directly to the coffee shop. The waiter came to ask, but she didn't respond. She just walked straight towards Ye Yan and Hu Yang.
Xiong Wanting followed behind and smiled at the waiter, "It's okay, let's find friends."
As soon as Shu Nian arrived, Hu Yang, who was talking, suddenly stopped. Ye Yan raised his head and looked at Shu Nian, his expression was calm, and his eyes seemed a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
Shu Nian looked at him and then at Hu Yang. For a moment, I couldn't tell whether Hu Yang said anything.
He just said: "I sent Tingting over, and I happened to see you guys there..."
Ye Yan said 'hmm', took Shu Nian's hand with one hand and held it. He raised his hand and looked at the time, then looked at Hu Yang, "Are you ready to go through the security check?"
"Yeah!" Hu Yang nodded and stood up with his luggage.
Ye Yan took Shu Nian's hand and looked at her, "Come with me to pay the bill."
Shu Nian stared at Ye Yan blankly, and there seemed to be no anger on his face. She was dragged away by Ye Yan, and she looked back at Xiong Wanting and winked at her. Xiong Wanting immediately asked Hu Yang tactfully, "What did you two talk about?"
Hu Yang carried the luggage and put his arm around her shoulders. "What else can we talk about? Just reminiscing about the past."
"Just reminiscing about the past?"
"It's more than that."
"What else?" Xiong Wanting glared at Hu Yang, "You didn't say anything nonsense, did you?"
"In addition to reminiscing about the past, of course we also looked forward to the future. However, every word I said was the truth, and I didn't say a single word nonsense."
Xiong Wanting turned around and looked back at the figures of Shu Nian and Ye Yan walking away, lowering her voice, "You didn't tell Ye Yan that Nian Nian wanted to go to school with us, did you? If Ye Yan knew about this, Shu Nian would be miserable. Maybe he couldn't even finish his studies."
"Why can't he finish his studies?"
"Didn't you and Ye Yan call each other brothers before? Are you not familiar with his personality? He likes Nian Nian. Do you think you can let Shu Nian go?"
Hu Yang pondered for a moment and nodded, "He just told me that he regretted not forcibly taking Shu Nian away five years ago. In the future, he will not let such a thing happen again."
