1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 199 Cheng Kaiyan: My teacher is Ye Shengtao, and I don’t eat beef!

"I see."

Although I was still a little surprised, after a brief thought.

Jiang Ting's emotions slowly calmed down and she let out a sigh of relief.

She raised her left hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes and said:

"No wonder Mr. Ye has repeatedly expressed his support for you. It turns out that you are a teacher and a student. I am relieved now."

For her, as long as Cheng Kaiyan is not threatened by Ning Qiuyue.

That won't affect her judgment and decision.

She had originally planned to reconcile to protect Cheng Kaiyan.

But now, that’s not necessary.

With the power of the Ning family, they would not casually make things difficult for a younger generation. As for the threat posed by Ning Qiuyue, with old man Ye Shengtao around, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Although Mr. Ye only holds an honorary position, he is also one of the top people.

"So you want me to come with you? There's a family dinner tonight."

Cheng Kaiyan didn't think about what the beautiful woman meant by "don't worry", but just looked at the woman in front of him with pity.

With his delicate mind, he actually realized very early on that she was too lonely.

I leave early and come back late, I have no relatives, no friends, no family...

But what she really needs is not these things. What she needs is to cross the cold snow-capped mountains, walk through the thorns that keep people away, and still make a firm choice.

To some extent, Cheng Kaiyan is also such a person, but not as "extreme" as Jiang Ting. He is easier to approach, while Jiang Ting will never give others the chance to approach him.

Once you truly enter someone's heart, you will become one of the people the other person cares about the most.

So when Ning Qiuyue used Cheng Kaiyan to force and threaten Jiang Ting, and Jiang Ting was so angry that she even agreed to Ning Qiuyue for him.

The relationship between the two may have reached a critical point.

At this moment, the two of them ran towards each other and achieved true communication.

"Of course, having you by my side is enough."

Jiang Ting felt the burning pain from his right hand and Cheng Kaiyan's burning palm, but he did not let go. He even held those hands tightly and said with a smile.

"But...if it's just the two of us, I'm afraid we won't be able to solve the problem, right? How about I go and call the teacher?"

Although Cheng Kaiyan was not very clear about the power of the Ning family, one thing was clear:

For the Ning family, crushing the two of them would be no different from crushing two ants, even though Cheng Kaiyan is now a little famous in the literary world and even has the gimmick of being called a master of children's literature.

He was just facing a few younger generations of the Ning family and questioned them about their inappropriate behavior.

But there is nothing we can do about the final outcome of the whole thing.

Just like when Ning Qiuyue, the person in charge, came and saw Cheng Kaiyan who had spoken rudely yesterday, she didn't say a word and didn't even look at her.

So maybe calling a teacher can help...

"I appreciate your kindness, but there is something wrong with your way of handling the matter. First of all, you have to understand that this is a family matter, okay?"

The beautiful woman laughed and shook her head to explain.

She knew the Ning family very well. This giant family had one foot in the Air Force and one foot in the General Political Department, and even reached out to the civil aviation field...

Any attempt to interfere in family affairs with external forces will only cause counter-effects and make the Ning family unhappy.

Moreover, the matter was not so serious. In the Ning family, except for Jiang Yunxia and Ning Qiuyue, mother and daughter, everyone else still treated Jiang Ting as a member of the family.

Otherwise, Jiang Ting would not have used the Ning family's power, such as moving and buying tickets.

"Housework is fine, but..."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded, understanding what Jiang Ting meant, but still a little worried.

"Well, Mr. Ye is in his seventies or eighties, you should ask him to calm down.

Since you are Mr. Ye’s student, it means that we have the right to have a barely equal dialogue with them, do you understand?

Besides, my aunt is not a weak woman, don't underestimate me!"

Jiang Ting said this with confidence on her cold and pretty face, while watching Cheng Kaiyan squatting in front of her like a child, looking up at her.

For a moment, maternal love overflowed and she subconsciously rubbed Cheng Kaiyan's hair.

Fluffy and soft, feels great.

However, Cheng Kaiyan quickly dodged it, causing the beautiful woman to give him a charming look.

"Well, I believe you."

Cheng Kaiyan pretended not to see anything and just nodded.

Judging from her performance yesterday and today, she is definitely not a weak woman.

Don't define people casually.

"Okay, little brat, hurry up and eat. I bought you your favorite bean juice."

Jiang Ting stood up and clapped her hands.

"I don't like drinking. Who told you that I like drinking?"

Cheng Kaiyan immediately retorted that even dogs wouldn't drink this stuff.

"Uh... Xiaoli said so."

The beautiful woman scratched her face with her little finger in embarrassment.

"It tastes good, I love it, and I drink it again."

Cheng Kaiyan immediately changed his words.

Jiang Ting showed a look of disdain: "Ah~"

……

The two put aside their bad moods and went to the table to eat.

In the morning, the two sat side by side at the desk.

Jiang Ting was reading a book, while Cheng Kaiyan took out the unfinished script of "Love Letter" and started writing.

The breeze blows gently and the curtains roll up and down.

The beauty is bathed in light, her skin is as white as jade.

Write something and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

The whole morning passed like this.

At noon, Jiang Ting said that it would be enough to eat some watermelon to fill her stomach, and asked Cheng Kaiyan to save some space for the dinner at Ning's house in the evening.

What I mean is, don’t treat the Hongmen Banquet as a feast!
Therefore, the goal that Jiang Ting set for Cheng Kaiyan was to eat and drink well, have fun, and not get involved in specific matters.

She will solve any problem.

In fact, with the right to have an equal dialogue and the other party being in the wrong, the problem is much easier to solve for Jiang Ting.

……

2 p.m.

The temperature outside has reached a level that causes ripples in the air.

The aunt and nephew went downstairs and stood in the corridor, looking at the scenery around them with a relaxed expression.

There was not a single person to be seen on the street under the sun, only a few old people lying on chairs in the shade of the trees to enjoy the cool air, and a middle-aged man pushing a cart selling popsicles and soda.

A military jeep was parked in front of the teachers' compound of Beijing Normal University. The engine was still on and the right door was open.

A girl in a white dress and waist-length hair came down, stood on tiptoe and waved over here, then trotted over with a nervous look on her face.

Ning Wanjia felt a little uneasy about what happened yesterday. She was worried that her Third Aunt would have some misunderstanding with her, so she came alone to pick her up today.

"Third Aunt, what happened yesterday was actually..."

Looking at Jiang Ting and Cheng Kaiyan standing side by side, Ning Wanjia nervously grasped the hem of her skirt with both hands and said aggrievedly.

But before she could finish, she was interrupted by Jiang Ting, who stroked her smooth face with a smile: "Don't blame you, our Jia Jia is the most sensible. If you hadn't brought in reinforcements, Third Aunt would have been finished."

"Uh-huh."

When Ning Wanjia heard that Jiang Ting didn't blame her, she immediately laughed and patted her barren chest in fear.

Bang bang sound.

"Go aside."

Ning Wanjia pushed Cheng Kaiyan aside with disgust and took Jiang Ting for herself.

Then he put his arm around Jiang Ting, pressed himself against her, and pulled her toward the car, "Come on, get in the car quickly, it's too hot outside."

Burning bridges across rivers, right?

Cheng Kaiyan could only shake his head and followed the two people into the car.

After getting in the car, he found that in addition to the driver, there was also a woman who looked like a secretary.

Seeing the three people getting in the car, the woman turned around and asked respectfully, "Madam, can we leave now?"

"Let's go."

Jiang Ting nodded, and the vehicle started soon.

"It's hot, wipe off the sweat, we'll be there soon."

The woman in front handed over two wet towels and a small box containing popsicles, drinks and other things.

"One for each of us. Cheng Kaiyan doesn't need to wipe it."

Ning Wanjia sorted the items and said capriciously.

Cheng Kaiyan: "Haha, I use my aunt's."

"No, I'll use Third Aunt's, you use this!"

Ning Wanjia quickly threw the half-finished towel to Cheng Kaiyan, and then waited for Jiang Ting to wipe her.

"You are a girl, how could you not pay attention at all!"

Seeing this, Jiang Ting hurriedly snatched back the towel that was thrown on Cheng Kaiyan's legs.

This is the towel that Jiajia has used to wipe me. How can Kaiyan use it?

This back and forth made Cheng Kaiyan speechless, "...It's not that no one treats me as a human being, right?"

“You’re still a human being, and you did okay yesterday.

But... you're lucky enough to have a car, what else do you want?

I should have let you walk down."

Ning Wanjia snorted coldly and retorted, this bastard actually wanted to compete with her for favor, he was dreaming!
"No, I've ridden in a Hongqi sedan before, what's this?"

"Bragging, you!"

……

……

The three of them had a good time and each ate a cool, sweet and sour popsicle.

The vehicle sped away, and the scenery reversed, heading towards the Air Force compound.

After a while, we passed Tiananmen Square, the train station, and arrived at the Air Force compound near Gongzhufen.

The tall and wide gate is three meters high, with a row of guards with guns guarding on both sides.

On the right hand side there is a sign which reads:

The guards are sacred and inviolable.

"Stop! Show your pass!"

The jeep arrived at the gate and two guards blocked it, shouting.

The driver handed over his ID. After the guard looked at it, his expression became serious and he immediately saluted respectfully.
"Hello, Chief! Let us pass!" The checkpoint was raised and the vehicle finally drove into the compound.

Cheng Kaiyan tilted her head to look curiously. There was a small garden in front of her. There was a large pool that looked like it was free. Water was spraying on the wall, bringing cool mist.

Exercise facilities.

There is even a playground, which is mainly used for training.

The entire military compound is actually the same as the large residential areas of later generations. There are rows of six-story tube-shaped buildings in the front, and more than a dozen single-family mansions in the back. They are much better than the tube-shaped buildings, and this is where the leaders live.

"Fuck... I was careless."

After arriving at the Ning family residence, Cheng Kaiyan's heart sank to the bottom.

This is the three-story villa with a small courtyard?

"How is it? Not bad, right? It is said that this was a house built by a wealthy family before liberation. The decoration was complete, but the house was confiscated after liberation. Later, after the troops entered Beijing, the house was allocated to our family." Ning Wanjia said proudly with her hands on her hips.

“Haha, critical use, huh?”

Cheng Kaiyan didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. What happened to living a low-key life?

"Ahem... How dare you! Who allowed you to talk like that?"

Ning Wanjia coughed lightly, and after seeing Cheng Kaiyan's teasing expression, she decided to scare him.

"Okay, let's go in."

Jiang Ting looked at the two people bickering with amusement and pushed them in.

As we move forward, the entire picture of the house comes into view.

The villa is constructed entirely of selected redwood and the roof is covered with hand-crafted slate tiles.

The porch is decorated with exquisite wood carvings and carved columns. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows provide excellent lighting, and the windows extend outward to the terrace and balcony.

The garden features a wooden gazebo and benches, surrounded by carefully manicured shrubs and flowers.

After entering the house, Cheng Kaiyan found that the temperature inside was at least 7 or 8 degrees lower than outside, which was very cool.

Looking around, I found that they were using large ice blocks to cool down. Generally, leaders have a free quota every day, and any more have to be purchased with money.

"A Ting is back, come and sit down."

Since it's a day off today, there are a lot more people in the living room.

Except for old lady Jiang Yunxia and the men in the family, the women sat on the sofa watching TV, chatting, and waiting for Jiang Ting to come back.

When Tang Minghua heard the noise, she quickly stood up and went over to greet him.

Seeing her stand up, the others followed suit.

"Come back to see the old lady, and see everyone..."

Jiang Ting smiled and responded to everyone appropriately.

Although she has a rather cold personality, she can still handle important occasions with her superficial presence.

……

I was pulled to sit down, and soon we started chatting about random things.

Cheng Kaiyan sat aside without saying a word. Seeing that no one cared about her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

But it’s not that no one noticed him. After all, he was brought by Jiang Ting, and his outstanding appearance and temperament also attracted the attention of several people.

For example, Tang Minghua, Ning Qiuyue who had just come in the morning, and a few young girls.

"Nice to meet you again, Comrade Xiao Cheng. Don't be nervous here. Just treat it like your own home."

Tang Minghua took the time to say hello to Cheng Kaiyan and then went to chat.

"Uh-huh."

Instead, Ning Wanjia felt sorry for him sitting alone, so she brought him a plate of fruit and said, "Eat, eat."

"No, save your stomach for the feast."

Cheng Kaiyan ignored the girl's arrogance, reached out and took a piece of watermelon, and joked.

"Hahaha~ You talk so funny."

Ning Wanjia and the little girls nearby were amused and couldn't help but explain, "Dinner won't be until after seven. The old lady has a meeting today and won't be back until later."

Several noble ladies heard their laughter and looked over curiously.

"that is?"

"Oh, the nephew of Ating's family."

"Very outstanding, how are your abilities?"

"Where's the great writer?"

Tang Minghua said with a smile.

"Oh, that's amazing, but it's a bit youthful and impetuous. The old lady was really angry yesterday."

"But it is true that Qiuyue's Jianan did not do a good job in this matter. He was too presumptuous. If the third brother was at home, he would have been hung up and beaten."

Several ladies were chatting, and the overall atmosphere was not as quiet as Cheng Kaiyan had expected. They all maintained a wait-and-see attitude.

But this may be because the wealthy family is too lazy to bother with a small character like me?

The reason why I came into their sight was entirely because of Jiang Ting.

Thinking of this, Cheng Kaiyan felt much more relaxed.

That means offending Ning Qiuyue's family and, by the way, offending old lady Jiang Yunxia. Isn't that bold?
This kind of chat didn't last long. As the saying goes, three women make a drama, so these five or six women got together and started playing mahjong.

During this time, Ning Yuan and others also came back from school. After seeing Cheng Kaiyan, Ning Yuan came over to chat for a few words and reminded him: "We had a problem with what happened yesterday. You are very brave, but don't talk casually tonight. Don't talk to the old lady, especially. It will be fine once the old lady calms down."

Cheng Kaiyan looked at him in surprise. "You?"

"Don't think of me as someone like Wang Jianan!"

Ning Yuan knew what Cheng Kaiyan was thinking at a glance and said with a wry smile.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Ning Yuan was quite interested in Cheng Kaiyan. He learned from his mother yesterday that Cheng Kaiyan had been to the front line.

So I started chatting with him.

After a few visits, the relationship between the two became much warmer.

In a blink of an eye, it was seven o'clock in the evening and a car stopped outside the door.

Old lady Jiang Yunxia is back.

"Where's A-Ting?"

As soon as Jiang Yunxia entered the room, she handed the briefcase to the secretary. No one dared to stop her along the way, and they all dispersed. She walked to the sofa, sat down and shouted.

Jiang Ting walked out of the crowd with a calm face and stood in front of the old lady.

"What? You don't even call me mom? Are you saying that others are uneducated?"

The old lady glanced at him and said in a deep voice.

Ning Qiuyue was secretly happy when she heard this.

"No matter what I say or what I call you, you won't be satisfied."

Jiang Ting shook her head and said softly.

"You know me well enough. Okay, I'll let you go for now."

Jiang Yunxia sneered, pursing her thin lips, looking very mean.

His sharp eyes searched the crowd and pointed out Cheng Kaiyan: "Hey, come out and let me see you."

Cheng Kaiyan's heart tightened. Why was this old lady so powerful?
Wang Jianan in the crowd gloated at Cheng Kaiyan and whispered to himself, "Haha, you're done for!"

Seeing this, Tang Minghua frowned and hesitated to speak.

After all, he is not a real son-in-law, they are just in contact.

Then Tang Minghua looked at Jiang Ting again.

But Jiang Ting was calm and composed, even with a decent smile on her face. She waved to Cheng Kaiyan, "Kaiyan, come over here."

This made her very surprised.

What's going on with A Ting? Why is she so calm?

Did she change her mind and not want to divorce? Or did the third brother Ning Ruzheng come back?

Tang Minghua could only think of this reason.

"Madam, this is a gift from Kaiyan's teacher, Mr. Ye Shengtao, after hearing that you invited Kaiyan. Please accept it."

Jiang Ting clapped her hands, took out a small gift box from Cheng Kaiyan's collar pocket and handed it over.

"Ye Shengtao? That literary giant?"

"Is that the one from the CPPCC? Mr. Ye, who was previously the Minister of Education? He has many students all over the world."

"It is said that he will be the next CPPCC member. Is this young man actually his student?"

Almost in an instant, the way everyone looked at Cheng Kaiyan and Jiang Ting changed, from ignoring them and watching from the sidelines at the beginning to looking at them with high regard and starting to discuss them.

"how is this possible?"

Especially Ning Qiuyue and her son, they swallowed subconsciously, and their hearts were filled with waves.

But she quickly calmed down. So what if it was Mr. Ye? This was a family matter.

Besides, the Ning family is not afraid.

Just as everyone was surprised, Jiang Yunxia waved her hand and said gently: "Cheng Kaiyan, right? It's really hard for Mr. Ye. You still remember me. Let me see it."

"Ah."

Cheng Kaiyan handed over the gift box in her hand.

"I'm sorry to trouble Mr. Ye."

Jiang Yunxia opened the gift box, and inside was a seal. She picked it up and looked at it. Under the light, the name was clearly engraved on the seal.

She reached out and touched the bottom, feeling a little wet, and the vermilion ink stained her thumb, leaving a mark.

Jiang Yunxia's eyes flashed with surprise, and she smiled and returned the seal:
"But this gift is too valuable. I cannot accept it."

Ning Qiuyue, who was standing aside and originally planning to watch the show, was startled when she saw this.

The old lady's action of moving back means that the seal is real. A seal is a proof of identity and will not be easily separated from one's body. Only the closest and most important people may possess it.

It was obvious that Mr. Ye gave Cheng Kaiyan the seal because he was worried that Cheng Kaiyan would be bullied here.

As for the gift, that was just a cover.

The old lady naturally wouldn't accept it.

This young man named Cheng Kaiyan is indeed Mr. Ye’s student. Moreover, the old man is already over 80 years old. This age means that Cheng Kaiyan is still his last disciple and is highly valued.

However, what worries Ning Qiuyue the most is that Jiang Ting has Cheng Kaiyan, a family member with some background, backing her up. Although it is impossible for her to suppress the old lady, it is enough for Jiang Ting and the old lady to have an equal dialogue about marriage.

"It looks like this is going to end in vain... We'll really get divorced when the third brother comes back."

Tang Minghua took in the situation and guessed in his mind.

Soon, the solemn atmosphere was swept away. At the old lady's order, more than a dozen people from the family sat at the table to eat. The auntie in the kitchen also brought out the food one dish after another, which was quite sumptuous.

"Auntie Wu is a Sichuan cuisine master. A-Ting hasn't come back to eat for a long time. She has lost a lot of weight. Come on, eat the food and taste how it tastes."

Tang Minghua greeted with a smile.

"Yes, sister-in-law, please eat some beef."

Ning Qiuyue also put on a fake smile, picked up a piece of food for Jiang Ting, and then her eyes fell on Cheng Kaiyan beside her, "Handsome boy, eat more too. You don't eat outside often. Come, auntie will bring it to you."

Cheng Kaiyan raised her eyelids and took a look: "I don't eat beef."
