miss you dearly

Chapter 28: Finally Waiting for You (3)
For a moment, Xi Yan was speechless.She was not sure whether Xi He was really pursuing a simple and pure love, or because she cared about her feelings and suppressed her feelings for Xie Yuanteng.

Xi He didn't continue, "Go in, Xingyuan is already in a hurry."

Xi Yan stared at him for a few seconds, then obediently walked into the private room.

After nightfall, Xi Yan lay on the bed, tossing and turning unable to fall asleep, a slight injury seemed to lurk in her sensitive heart.She hugged the quilt and thought about it carefully in the dark, and her thoughts drifted back to her senior year:

Han Nuo stood downstairs in the school auditorium and looked at his watch frequently, until he saw Xi Yan trotting over, he went up to meet her, and kissed her on the forehead as if no one else was there, "There's still time, don't run so fast."

Xi Yan pushed him away with a blushing face: "Ruoning dragged me to go shopping, and finally got away."

Han Nuo smiled dotingly, stroked her cheek affectionately with his fingertips, and took her hand into the arena, "You can invite her to come, we just have dinner together after the game."

"She said it's not good to have too many light bulbs." Xi Yan looked at him and smiled, "Is there any elite with good conduct in your student union to introduce one to her?"

Han Nuo frowned, "They say they are elites, but they also ask if they have good morals, that's a bad sentence."

"Of course the so-called elites are those who have good grades like you and are handsome. But such people are not necessarily good people, so they must be carefully selected, otherwise it is easy to get distracted, and it will be miserable to find someone who is used to fixing his girlfriend with his fists." Lah." Xi Yan ignored Han Nuo's reproach, with a serious face.

"I can't introduce you first, because I'm afraid your eyes will be starry." Han Nuo smiled, "Isn't it? Every time you come to my game, you watch others more than I do."

"Where is it?" Xi Yan immediately expressed his loyalty, "This kind of competition is basically a battle of words, it's so boring, if it's not because of you, I would not be willing to come here if you invite me to carry a big sedan chair. You have no conscience, and you have wronged me."

Han Nuo's voice became softer when he heard the words, "I was wrong, I'm not jealous of that handsome guy named Zhang chasing you. My heart is dark, I'm not angry."

Thinking of that stunned classmate Zhang, Xi Yan laughed, "What a handsome guy, crickets are about the same, how can I compare with you."

Han Nuo opened his eyes and smiled, and with a little force on his hand, he took Xi Yan into his arms without any trace, and was about to say something when a female classmate came towards them.

"Han Nuo?" Xie Yuanteng smiled leisurely, his gaze fell on Han Nuo's hand.

Xi Yan wants to withdraw from Han Nuo's embrace.

Han Nuo didn't allow it, and still put his arms around her shoulders: "I guess the other party's main defense is you, Xie Yuanteng."

"Xie Yuanteng?" Xi Yan was surprised, and even forgot to be polite. Looking at the beautiful female classmate opposite, she couldn't connect with the little girl in the mud bar in her memory, "You are, Xie Yuanteng?"

Xie Yuanteng obviously didn't recognize her either, and looked at her questioningly.

Xi Yan took her hand excitedly, "I'm Xi Yan, remember? Xi He is my brother."

"Xi Yan?" Xie Yuanteng was also very surprised, she looked at Xi Yan, and seemed unable to connect the pretty girl in front of her eyes with the little girl who was fighting with her for a while.

Perhaps it was due to his naturally cold personality, Xie Yuanteng did not show much enthusiasm when they reunited after a long absence, Xie Yan was slightly disappointed.But that day was to watch Han Nuo's debate match, and she didn't care too much about it, until Han Nuo and Xie Yuanteng walked backstage side by side, looking at their backs, she felt sour inexplicably.

At the start of the debate, Xie Yuanteng appeared in the opposing school's debate team and had a heated debate with Han Nuo, who was also the main debater.As a man of the day on campus, Han Nuo's eloquence goes without saying, but the debate team headed by him showed signs of failure when faced with the opponent's relentless sophistry, which made Xi Yan look at Xie Yuanteng with admiration .

However, Han Nuo is Han Nuo after all. After figuring out the opponent's routine, he put away his previous style of giving examples and demonstrations, and showed his potential lawyer's debate ability, turned the tide and won the championship of that college debate competition.

It was only later that Xi Yan found out that Han Nuo and Xie Yuan met during the preliminaries.As for the relationship between Xi Yan and Xie Yuanteng as old neighbors, Han Nuo also found out that day.Because we didn't see each other again, Xi Yan didn't mention her in front of Ji Ruoning, until something happened at home, Han Nuo wrote and acted a scene of empathizing with Xie Yuanteng, and Xi Yan never mentioned Xie Yuanteng.

Childhood memories are the same as the injuries she has suffered, and it is difficult to erase them with an eraser like pencil words. Xi Yan cannot ignore the existence of Xie Yuanteng, and perhaps, she will never be able to face it as calmly as she treats her friends.However, she was not sure whether the intersection and entanglement between herself and Xie Yuanteng because of Han Nuo would hinder Xi He's happiness.

Overnight, Xi Yan was a little confused.

According to the original plan, Xi Yan and Wen Xingyuan would return to G City on the third day of the new year.When she was about to go out, Xi He got up and said, "I'll take you down."

In the elevator, the silence was broken by Xi He: "I feel angry because my brother has concealed it from you?"

When Xi Yan heard the words, a feeling of embarrassment welled up in her chest, and she looked down at the ground: "You don't have to worry about me." If she is what you have identified, you will spend your whole life with her as your partner.

Xi He's eyes fixed on her slightly drooping head, feeling relieved, "I am a selfish person, knowing that nothing is perfect, but still stubborn. In the three years since you left, I have been waiting for you and her. The result I expect is that she sees clearly that Han Nuo never forgets you and gives up on her own initiative, and you see clearly the fact that you and Han Nuo cannot be together, and come back on your own initiative."

"Seeing you and Han Nuo come out of that relationship, I am relieved. I don't mind that she loved others, what I mind is that she still loves until now. When she asked for Han Tianqi's dying wish When I contacted you, I had no expectations for her."

Xi He laughed, self-deprecating: "Xiaoyan, I'm a selfish person, I won't give others the chance to hurt me twice."

Xi Yan raised her head, trying to find something in his eyes, but failed, Xi He was very calm, from expression to eyes: "This is a somewhat complicated, but actually very simple relationship between characters. I am not worried about you, It's her heart." Touching the top of Xi Yan's hair, he said: "You are my most beloved sister, don't have knots or burdens because of this matter."

He was obviously injured, but he was still worried about her.Xi Yan realizes her selfishness.There is nothing more important than your brother's happiness.

"I'm sorry. When I found out that you like him, the first thing I thought was that I don't like her. I'm selfish." Xi Yan stretched out her hand to hold his: "You are my favorite brother, you My happiness is what I care most about. So, if you and she can let go of your obsession and love you wholeheartedly, brother, I'm really fine."

Xi He was moved.Touched by Xi Yan, it is him who cares most.

That's enough.

Zhan held Xi Yan in his arms, and he said, "Similarly, brother also cares most about your happiness."

Xi Yan reached out and hugged him back: "So, we all need to be well."

Wen Xingyuan saw that the two brothers and sisters came down together, and Xi Yan looked like he had just cried, so he understood that Xi He and her were talking about Xie Yuanteng.Before leaving, he patted Xi He on the shoulder, as if to comfort him, or to reassure him, Xi He nodded to express his understanding.

Before returning to City G, Wen Xingyuan took Xi Yan to the [-]th floor of Block B in a high-end residential complex in the northern urban area.

Seeing him open the door with a key, Xi Yan didn't understand, so: "This is——"

"Our home in City A." Wen Xingyuan handed her a bunch of keys in his hand, "You don't want to go to work in City G for now, and I'm reluctant to live apart from you, but I can't live in your apartment all the time Well, so—"

Xi Yan was surprised: "So you bought this place?"

Wen Xingyuan hugged her into the door: "I know the developer of this real estate, it's cheap."

It's certainly not a question of money.With Wen Xingyuan's strength, no matter how expensive the house is, the most important thing is his intentions.

Stepping into the living room, the floor is made of mosaic tiles. Looking up, a tassel-shaped crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, embellishing it elegantly and shining brightly.There are hidden compartments on the walls on both sides, and a curved aquarium is installed next to it, which adds a sense of depth to the living room.Pushing open one of the secret doors in the hall, the floor-style bedroom design is particularly eye-catching. The European-style classical sofa rug and floor lamp embellish the space with style and elegance.

Next, I visited the guest rooms, study, dining room, and even the baby room one by one. Looking at the low-key, dignified, simple yet warm design, Xi Yan couldn't control her tears: "Brother said that you secretly learned a lot when you went to the United States." After working on the design for a year, Uncle Wen was so angry that he had a heart attack that you were forced to give up, is it true?"

"At that time, I asked Xingyao to go to class on my behalf. I was afraid that my father would call the tutor to inquire about my studies. Who knew that he would skip class to chase after his sister-in-law, but of course his family found out. My father went to New York on purpose. I just calmed down when I was sent to the hospital." Wen Xingyuan wiped her tears with a tissue: "Wen's was founded by my grandfather, and it was my father's lifelong painstaking efforts. I am responsible for it. So in the end, I learned chose to take over."

He studied interior design because of her, he just wanted to share a hobby with her.

Xi Yan snuggled into his arms, pressed her face against his chest, listened to his muffled heartbeat, as if listening to the most beautiful voice in the world, "Aren't you afraid that you will end up fetching water from a bamboo basket if you love me so much?"

Wen Xingyuan stroked her hair like An An was caressing a baby, "At that time, I also thought about taking a step back, that is when you fell in love with him. But feelings are not running water, and you can't take them in and out freely. It's easy to like someone, but you have to forget It's hard. I've tried countless times and failed."

Such deep feelings, such an infatuated and affectionate man, she once didn't want him.At this moment, Xi Yan realized that only a man who treats him so affectionately cannot be let down.

"Xingyuan, thank you for loving my beloved, thank you for ten years of persistence, I feel very happy, happiness that I have never had before."

Wen Xingyuan kissed her black hair: "I'm glad I'm the one who makes you happy."

The tone of voice was not significantly different from usual, but in Xi Yan's ears, it was fatally tender and pity. She smiled softly, and said something that moved Wen Xingyuan beyond words: "Xingyuan, let's get married."

Due to the reserve of a girl, Xi Yan shouldn't say this, but she proposed to him so naturally.

That's right, she was the first to make the promise of lifelong companionship.

Xi Yan believes that Wen Xingyuan is her only correct choice and her eternal position.

Wen Xingyuan also believed that the shadow in her memory and heart had faded and dispersed.There was a slight solitude on his lips, and his eyes, which were as quiet as a deep pool, were also full of smiles, "Since you are so active, I will agree."

Xi Yan smiled through tears, and raised her hand to reward him with a punch: "Don't force it too much."

In the evening, Wen Xingyuan took Xi Yan back to the Wen Mansion in G City.Needless to say, Ms. Wen is not picky about Xi Yan except for her love for her.As for Wen Feiwen, Wen Xingyuan was somewhat uneasy.

When we met for the first time, facing the white-haired, but energetic and sharp-eyed head of the Wen family, Xi Yan calmly and firmly sat facing him under his gesture.

Wen Feiwen's eyes fell on Xi Yan, with some exploration and examination, and then turned to Wen Xingyuan: "Go and see if your mother needs help, I will play chess with Yan Yan."

This is clearly meant to distract him.Wen Xingyuan was reluctant: "Dad?"

But was interrupted by Wen Feiwen: "Aren't you going?"

Xi Yan shook Wen Xingyuan's hand to express comfort, before he turned and left the study.

Seemingly not noticing their small movements, Wen Feiwen lowered his head and played chess, "Your dad also likes to play chess?"

Xi Yan didn't intervene, and replied softly: "I'm used to it, I usually use it to pass the time."

"Play a game with uncle?" Wen Feiwen set up the chess set, looked up and asked her, seeing Xi Yan nodded, and took a step first with a chess piece, "Xingyao has been in the United States for many years, and Xingyuan doesn't come back often , there is no one in my family who can accompany me to play two games."

"I'm not good at chess, Uncle Wen don't let me lose too badly, otherwise you'll laugh at me." Xi Yan smiled, picked up the chess piece and dropped it again.

"Xingyuan said that you play chess better than your brother, and occasionally you can beat your father in a game." Wen Feiwen said, unexpectedly came out of the "army".

Xi Yan's eyes flickered, it was the first time she encountered Wen Feiwen's unconventional moves, after thinking about it, she decided to vault, "I don't have a method, I just acted like my father The veterans don't know how to deal with it."

Wen Feiwen moved the chess piece closer to her side again, "I heard that Xi Hesheng is the director?"

Xi Yan replied truthfully: "It was also a short time ago. Brother, like Xingyuan, is very ambitious."

Wen Feiwen smiled lightly, "Lao Xi is far more blessed to have you two sons and daughters than I am. That pair of bastards are actually mad at me."

When mentioning the twin brothers, Xi Yan couldn't help laughing, "Brother is very kind and humorous than Xingyuan."

A look of relief appeared on Wen Feiwen's face: "He just looks like that, unsteady. In comparison, Xingyuan is more reassuring, but he has a stubborn temper."

In Xi Yan's view, Wen Xing is far from stubborn, but persistent.She smiled without saying a word, concentrating on playing chess.

Half an hour later, when Xi Yan came out of the study, Wen Xingyuan greeted him nervously, "What did my dad tell you?"

"What do you think I'm going to say?" Wen Feiwen stood at the door of the study and asked with a straight face, "Are you afraid that I won't succeed if I eat your wife?"

Xi Yan smiled mischievously, "I beat Uncle Wen by one move."

Wen Xingyuan finally let go of his worry, and joked: "The meal is ready, please tell me if the meal is ready?"

"Approved." Wen Feiwen stretched his eyebrows, and went downstairs first.

At the dinner table, Wen Xingyuan announced the news that the two decided to get married, and Mother Wen almost cried with joy.However, when she saw Xiyan Kongkong's finger, she immediately became unhappy, "Thankfully Xiaoyan agreed to marry you, why didn't she even prepare a ring? How did you ask for marriage?"

Wen Xingyuan smiled helplessly, "I haven't had time to ask for it yet."

"Dare to talk about getting married without asking? Aren't you afraid that Xiaoyan won't agree to you?" Mother Wen gave her son a hard look, "Xiaoyan, Xingyuan has never had a girlfriend and has no experience. Don't talk to me He's knowledgeable."

Xi Yan didn't know how to answer.

Wen Xingyuan's hand held hers under the dining table, "My mother is right, don't be as knowledgeable as me, I'm in the groping stage."

Xi Yan pinched the back of his hand.

Wen Xingyuan groaned seriously: "You pinched me, and I was also groping."

Before the words finished, the two elders of the Wen family laughed.

The little trick was discovered, and Xi Yan's shy face was as red as the sky.

After dinner, Wen Xingyuan and Wen Feiwen talked in the study, while Xi Yan chatted with Wen's mother. The two women chatted about their dressing experience. Xi Yan studied design and had a unique vision.

When Wen Xingyuan went downstairs, he saw the bright smiling faces of the two most important women in his life. It was self-evident that his heart was filled with emotion, the feeling of extreme softness, and even a little moisture.Sitting among them, he embraced the shoulders of his mother and lover, and said softly, "Thank you."

Mother Wen was laughing and scolded him: "Silly boy."

Xi Yan was also laughing, her moist eyes proved that she understood Wen Xingyuan's emotion.

Happiness is so simple, it is the moment of touching, the fragments, and they are together.

After the Spring Festival, Wen Xingyuan and Xi Yan's wedding was put on the agenda.To show his sincerity, Wen Feiwen personally called Xi Xianming and agreed to meet his family at Bailu Hotel in City A during the Lantern Festival.That day, except for Wen Xingyao who returned to the United States and did not attend, both Wen and Xi's families were there.

What Wen Feiwen meant was: "Old Xi, if you have no objection, how about the two children's wedding date being set in June?"

Looking at Xi He, Xi Xianming smiled slightly, "Xiaoyan is self-willed and ignorant, so I have to forgive her a lot from my in-laws in the future."

This of course means agreeing.Mother Wen and Wen Feiwen looked at each other and smiled, "They're all a family. I've been looking forward to Xiaoyan's passing since a long time ago." She already held Xi Yan's hand in her hand: " Xiaoyan, if Xingyuan bullies you in the future, you will have your mother backing you up."

The word "Mom" made Xi Yan speechless.

Wen Xingyuan held her right hand at the right time, his eyes focused and gentle, "Then it's settled, we can discuss the details of the wedding at any time."

Xi Yan held back her tears and nodded.
