Jian Qiaoxin was taken aback.
The movie in the theater had already started, but he did not pay attention to it at all. These noisy sounds could not get into his ears. His logical mind was telling him that it has nothing to do with him. He and Yan Gan were originally being together due to a binding contract, and they were not actually a married couple; Yan Gan was free to find anyone, yet his heart still felt a missing hole.
Jian Xingchen watched the movie, and soon Jian Qiaoxin's figure appeared on the screen. The person on the screen was dressed in a chivalrous costume, sassy and heroic.
He spoke while munching: "You are very suitable for the wuxia genre."
Jian Qiaoxin answered absentmindedly.
Jian Xingchen on one side noticed this, and he said, "Xiao Xin, are you worried about Mr. Yan?"
Jian Qiaoxin came back to his senses. He was holding his Coke, but didn't drink a mouthful. After thinking about it for a long time, he nodded. Fortunately, they both reserved the seats in the last row so that they would not be recognized. Talking quietly at this moment would not affect other people, as he said: "I'm very worried. He... didn't go home last night. Because of his temperament, he usually doesn't pay attention to his body. I'm afraid he would not rest well or eat well if he was busy."
Jian Xingchen said that this is the same virtue as his old Huo, so he comforted him: "After the movie, it will be noon. You can buy some food and deliver it to Mr. Yan. Besides, aren't you worried about him, just take this opportunity to personally go take a look? Let me tell you that some people have the tendency of telling you that you don't need to be there, but if you do go, they might fly to heaven in happiness."
Jian Qiaoxin trusted Jian Xingchen's words, and besides, he really wanted to see Yan Gan. The food delivery was indeed a good excuse. He hesitated for a moment and finally nodded in agreement.
This movie had a good story and great production team. Jian Qiaoxin was not the male lead, just one of the supporting roles, but his overall shots were not too few.
Coming out of the movie theater, Jian Xingchen said: "Xiao Xin, what shall we buy?"
Jian Qiaoxin thought about Yan Gan's fussy stomach, and simply said: "When you came this morning, Ran Ran was sleeping. Didn't you say you want to play with him? Let's go back home. It just so happens that there seems to be some groceries in the refrigerator at home. I'll personally cook something for you, how is that?"
Jian Xingchen literally had stars in his eyes and was very happy: "Okay!"
The two decided to head home. The driver outside had been waiting. He thought that the two little ancestors would be hanging around in the theater for a long time, but he didn't expect them to come out soon.
They went directly to Yan's house together.
When Jian Qiaoxin was in the car, he wanted to call Yan Gan, but he hesitated and didn't press the dial button. Instead, he went to check the balance on his bank account.
These years of savings, coupled with the recent filming and some endorsements he did recently, he had roughly around 15 million. He didn't know if this could help Yan Gan much, even if it was a drop in the bucket, as long as this much could be of some help.
Jian Xingchen leaned over: "Oh, if you are really worried, why don't you just go and see for yourself later?"
"Yeah." Jian Qiaoxin put away his phone: "I'll go see him in the afternoon."
They returned to the Yan's house together. Jian Qiaoxin went to the kitchen and looked around the fridge, he found that there was chicken. It should be possible to stew some chicken soup, and the other ingredients were enough for him to make a table full of food.
The nanny came down from upstairs: "You're back?"
"Yeah." Jian Qiao said to her after closing the refrigerator door: "I want to use the kitchen."
The nanny reverently said: "As you please."
Jian Xingchen hugged Ran Ran to play with the baby when the baby was up. He smiled and said, "Ran Ran has a good personality, he would respond to me whenever I play with him, how come he is so cute?"
Jian Qiaoxin, who was cutting vegetables, said, "Isn't your baby also very cute?"
Jian Xingchen rolled his eyes silently: "Huo Yuxiu, that stinky boy, has a personality that is exactly the same as his father. He shows a poker face all day, and he rarely cries. He plays by himself and ignores everyone. He is not as cute as Ran Ran, right Ran Ran?"
Jian Qiaoxin found it a bit funny. Ran Ran naturally liked to cry: crying when waking up, crying when hungry, crying when he was unhappy, and had a soft temper. While the Huo family baby did not like crying, but had a cold temper. It was really funny in a weird way.
Jian Qiaoxin said: "Next time you can bring Yu Yu to play with Ran Ran."
"That means they will become childhood sweethearts?" Jian Xingchen hinted like crazy: "Two childhood sweethearts, two little innocent kids, when they grow up..."
Jian Qiaoxin marinated the chicken as he said helplessly: "Isn't that sweethearts consisting of a man and a woman?"
Jian Xingchen curled up his lips: "What does it matter? If you really go and check online, sweetheart is not just talking about having a future spouse, but also something you can eat!"
? ? ?
Okay, fine.
Jian Qiaoxin was busy in the kitchen. He was gradually re-adapting to the kitchen recently. When he was pregnant before, Yan Gan never let him in. He remembered that the first time when the two went to eat hot and sour noodles, he promised to cook for the man when they were back to the car, now it just happened to be the right time.
Jian Xingchen handed Ran Ran back to the nanny, and came in to look at the food for himself: "Let me help."
Jian Qiaoxin looked sideways: "No need, I can do it myself."
"It's okay, I can cook too." Jian Xingchen patted his chest, very proud: "A Jue used to eat my food and fell in love with me."
Jian Qiaoxin put the lid on the pot: "Really, Mr. Hou seems to be in a good spot for food."
Jian Xingchen smiled: "It's just so-so, but I rarely do it after I am pregnant with Yu Yu."
Jian Qiaoxin shared this point: "Mr. Yan is the same."
Jian Xingchen was washing vegetables, and suddenly became interested: "Hey, can your mister cook?"
Jian Qiaoxin knew this very well, and he replied: "Yes, he can make noodles."
"Ah, so is A Jue." Jian Xingchen chuckled: "Do you know why these men are better at making noodles?"
Jian Qiaoxin was a little curious: "Why?"
Jian Xingchen: "Because they are too lazy to cook."
The two laughed, and then worked together in the kitchen. Finally, they made five dishes and one soup together. The greedy baby not far from them was crying, and the nanny took him back to drink the milk.
Jian Xingchen took a bite of Jian Qiaoxin's spare ribs, and was moved: "It's so delicious."
"Really?" Jian Qiaoxin was a little embarrassed, he said: "If you like, come to the house often, I will make it for you."
"Good, good."
After the meal, the driver of Jian Xingchen's family came to pick him up. Because it was on the way, they simply took Jian Xingchen's car and went to Yan Gan's company. Although the Yan Group was in turmoil, it was still running in an orderly manner. Everyone here performed their duties accordingly.
The driver entered the parking lot and turned off the engine.
Jian Qiaoxin in the car was packing lunch boxes and checking whether there were any missing items. While he was busy, Jian Xingchen on the side suddenly pulled on his sleeve: "Is that your Mr. Yan?"
Jian Qiaoxin was surprised. He looked out the car window and saw that two people had indeed come down from the elevator over there.
He recognized one of them at a glance. It was indeed Yan Gan. The man was wearing a black suit that perfectly contoured his tall and straight body. He strode gracefully and next to him was an elegant and slim woman figure.
Jian Xingchen looked at them: "Isn't that Miss Zhao from the Zhao family?"
Jian Qiaoxin looked at the figure that was approaching and confirmed the identity of the other party. His throat was a bit dry: "It's Zhao Tao."
The woman had a big smile on her face, and there was almost no distance between the two. They were talking and laughing intimately, just like the most ordinary couple in the world.
Jian Xingchen gave a "wow", and he went to open the door: "I have to go and see what that woman is planning to do."
"Don't!"
Jian Qiaoxin hurriedly grabbed him and stopped him from going out: "If we go out now, won't we be found out?"
Jian Xingchen didn't understand: "Why, even if they see us, shouldn't they be the ones afraid of us?"
"..."
Jian Qiaoxin lowered his head, he held Jian Xingchen's arm tightly, and whispered: "Don't go out, please."
The car suddenly became quiet. Yan Gan and the woman passed by the car. Because it was not the Yan family car, they did not pay too much attention to it. Their car was parked not far away. Zhao Tao was standing by the door. Yan Gan thoughtfully opened the door for her, very thoughtful and gentle.
Until the car left and the parking returned to its quiet state, Jian Qiaoxin, who was petrified, looked back.
Jian Xingchen sat back on the chair and waved his hand: "Okay, you don't need to deliver the meal."
Jian Qiaoxin put the lunch box aside.
"You call Mr. Yan and ask where he is."
"What?"
"Do it!"
Jian Qiaoxin's phone was right next to him, but he was a little hesitant: "Or let's not, he is not in the company now."
"So what!" Jian Xingchen clapped his hands: "Call to ask where he and Miss Zhao go!"
"..."
Jian Qiaoxin wanted to say that he and Yan Gan are not in that kind of relationship; and it was unnecessary to ask such a thing, but when the words came to his lips, he actually swallowed them down.
He searched Yan Gan's number from the contact list, he dialed it, and it was quickly connected. The man's voice was low, "Hello?"
Jian Qiaoxin was a little nervous: "It's me."
Yan Gan was noncommittal: "I know it's you, what's the matter?"
Jian Qiaoxin regretted making this call now, because he could not think of any honest reason for him to call Yan Gan!
He bit the bullet and said: "I have been resting at home these two days, and then..."
Yan Gan was very patient and didn't urge him: "Then?"
Jian Qiaoxin didn't know what to say, Jian Xingchen next to him was so anxious, and he silently mouthed, "Tell him to go home."
Jian Qiaoxin received the hint, and he said: "You didn't come back yesterday, and Ran Ran missed you a little. Have you eaten yet? If you haven't eaten yet, I just finished cooking some food and you can come back to eat it."
There was a moment of silence on the other line.
A long while later.
Yan Gan laughed, the man's voice was a little bit magnetic, and he whispered, "Only Ran Ran?"
"..."
Jian Qiaoxin's face was blushing up, and he subconsciously denied: "Ran Ran really misses you, I... I just ask, if you have eaten already, it doesn't matter, in fact, I didn't make a lot."
The opposite Jian Xingchen almost wanted to hit his head in desperation.
Yan Gan was noncommittal: "Uncle is currently outside. I have a social meeting today and I can't go back now. You can eat more and gain some meat on your body."
Jian Qiaoxin was a little lost, but nodded: "Okay, I see."
His arm was being swayed crazily by Jian Xingchen, and he was sitting with his mouth making a sound: "You ask him what kind of social meeting!"
Yan Gan waited for a while, but the youth still didn't say anything, so he said: "If that's all there is, then call me if something happens..."
"Then what kind of social meeting are you going to?"
The two of them were speaking almost at the same time, and each was taken aback. Yan Gan didn't expect that this little bunny to be quite daring today.
Jian Qiaoxin wanted to bite his tongue. He hurriedly added: "I don't mean anything, I mean, if you are socializing outside, remember to drink less."
Yan Gan let out an "uhm".
After a pause, he smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Don't you let your friend next to you get on the phone and say hello?"
? ? ?
Jian Qiaoxin was stunned again by Yan Gan's invincible hearing. Jian Xingchen's mouth voice was very small when he was speaking next to him, but Yan Gan could actually hear it!
When Jian Xingchen saw that his name was being mentioned, he quickly grabbed the phone: "Hello, Mr. Yan? I'm Xingchen."
Yan Gan: "Are you guys hanging out?"
"Yeah." Jian Xingchen just wanted to speak loudly, but was pulled by Jian Qiaoxin on the side, so he had to say: "Mr. Yan, if you are socializing outside, you must not get too close with any coquettish people, those rouge and vulgar people cannot be compared to our Xiao Xin, you must keep a clear mind and don't get confused."
Yan Gan raised his eyebrows: "Where are you?"
Jian Xingchen snorted softly: "We are everywhere, as long as you know what you should do, I'm hanging up!"
The phone was cut off, but Jian Xingchen's thoughts were still unfinished. He put the phone down next to him and said magnificently: "Why are you being discourage, you're husband and wife ah, what's so wrong about asking?"
Jian Qiaoxin put away his phone and told the driver to take him back. Then he said: "He and I are not what you think. We were never in a relationship from the start, but due to an accident, I became pregnant. He let me stay at Yan's house in order to take care of the pregnant me. We haven't separated yet after the baby was born because I'm afraid that the child would not be well taken care of, so he let me take care of it for two years. After two years, I must leave and will have nothing to do with him."
"..."
Jian Xingchen on one side was stunned, maybe he had never seen such a performance in the book.
He said: "Then can I ask a question?"
Jian Qiaoxin: "Yeah."
"Since you don't have feelings for him, why did you just show such a sad expression? Since you don't have feelings for him, why do you cook for him? Why should you worry about him? If you don't have feelings for him at all, you should tell him that you support him after hearing the two families are tying the knot. After all, you are not married, are you?"
Jian Qiaoxin was speechless.
In fact, he had been asked this question by many people, and he sighed: "I like him, but I can only do so much. I can't go beyond too much. The Zhao family can help him even more. I can't do anything. "
The car was driving on the road, and the scenery outside flew past.
Jian Xingchen rolled his eyes: "I think there is a problem with your thinking. First of all, you have to figure out whether he likes you or not. From this perspective, I can tell that Mr. Yan loves you very much. You must believe me, if a nanny were to call him just now and started to say a bunch of nonsense, and asked him if he wanted to go back, he would fire the nanny in the next second."
"..."
Jian Qiaoxin: "It's different."
"It's the same." Jian Xingchen held down his hand: "Secondly, are you worried that you can't help him yourself? In this case, outsiders really can't do anything. It depends on Mr. Yan's choice. It's up to him to either choose you or choose a more convenient and faster future."
Jian Xingchen's chubby face pulled out a smile: "If he chooses you, then I certainly wish you a lifetime of happiness. If he doesn't choose you, Xiao Xin, maybe it would be good for you to not be with him."
Jian Qiaoxin leaned on the seat cushion and sighed softly.
"Perhaps I should find a chance to figure this out." He looked at Jian Xingchen: "But not now. He is having a difficult time now. I think he can deal with the problem more attentively instead of getting caught up in this love cycle. "
Jian Xingchen was noncommittal: "Maybe you are not afraid of him being taken away by others?"
Jian Qiaoxin smiled, with a smile in his warm apricot eyes: "I have never owned him."
I have never owned him , but I seem to have lost a million times.
In the car.
Yan Gan hung up the phone, and Zhao Tao, who was next to him, stroked the hair on her temples, and whispered, "Brother Gan, who is it?"
Yan Gan: "Xiao Xin."
Zhao Tao looked at Yan Gan putting away the phone and whispered: "So it was Xiao Xin, why didn't you let me have a chat with him just now? I haven't seen him for a long time. I just saw his hot search on the Internet two days ago. It seemed to be talking about his love affair with Zihua?"
Yan Gan lay lazily on the car seat: "It's just for the movie promotion."
"It turned out to be like this." Zhao Tao smiled slightly: "That's right, but Xiao Xin's development is pretty good now. In fact, he and Zihua match quite well, so I can recommend him to the elders next time."
Yan Gan smiled at the corners of his mouth, but his smile was not very warm: "He has an Uncle worrying about his marriage, and he doesn't need you."
Zhao Tao was noncommittal, she was just trying to find any clues on Yan Gan's face but found nothing. She changed the topic: "Then we will be home in a while. My dad must be happy to see you."
Yan Gan calmly handed her a glass of water, which prevented Zhao Tao from trying to lean over and hug him: "This time I come to ask for his forgiveness. If he is happy, it would be good."
Zhao Tao took the water and said quickly: "My dad won't be angry, how can he be angry with you? As a family, we always forgive each other~"
A meaningful smile appeared on Yan Gan's handsome face: "The friendship between the Yan family and the Zhao family shall last forever."
"..."
The smile on Zhao Tao's face was a bit solidified. No matter how she hinted, she would always be pushed back by Yan Gan by his skillful words. This time the Yan Group's crisis was indeed a secret move by her and Xing Rou.
Letting Wen Yuan make things difficult for Jian Qiaoxin, having Qiu Jian to work in the rival company. These arrangements were done to force Yan Gan to do something. Of course, with Yan Gan's strength, the company would not have any problems. So they bought Aunt Zhang over at a high price and stole some information in order to make Yan Group have a big loss.
They succeeded.
The board of directors forced Yan Gan to step down because of the lack of cash flow. Xing Rou took the opportunity to force Yan Gan to give up the position as the head of the family. Half of the loss this time was Zhao's financing. If the Zhao family didn't care about the predecessors, he would be able to tide over the difficulties.
It was only a few tens of billions. From the Zhao family's play, as long as Yan Gan could change his mind, she did not feel distressed at all.
Zhao Tao had indeed succeeded. Under a lot of pressure, Yan Gan was finally willing to see her again, instead of avoiding her like before. What about Jian Qiaoxin, what about the baby, can they help Yan Gan when he is in crisis, today she wants to let Yan Gan know who he can really rely on!
The Yan's House.
The lights were bright at night. The baby was now two or three months old. Jian Qiaoxin sits cross-legged in the baby's room to play with Ran Ran. The child giggled happily.
He started to get sleepy after playing, the nanny said: "Sir, shall I take Ran Ran back to sleep?"
Jian Qiaoxin nodded: "Thank you."
The nanny smiled and dutifully carried the baby back to the bed. The room became quiet, so Jian Qiaoxin went out. He sat on the sofa downstairs and read the script.
Nong Bai called him: "Wen Yuan sent a clarification. Go and see."
After Jian Qiaoxin hung up the phone, he went to Weibo and looked around, and saw that the top search list was Wen Yuan's Weibo hot search, which was hung at the top of the list, and there was a hot word. He clicked on it and saw the content:
Wen Yuan V: "Thank you for your concern. Actually, I have a very good relationship with Xiao Xin. In fact, there was no fighting that day, we were just playing around. It was just a little joke. I hope everyone will not pursue this matter anymore. Friendship lasts forever~"
This kind of ambiguous statement did not help to cool down the netizens' opinion at all.
"Hitting someone is still a crime, why should our kind Yuan Yuan have to explain to those who persecute you?"
"God, why did you apologize first, why didn't Jian Qiaoxin come out to apologize? Be a man, what kind of senior behaves like this!"
"Jian Qiaoxin is disgusting."
Jian Qiaoxin curled up on the sofa and watched quietly. He didn't feel much in his heart since he had seen more than enough. He just leaned on the sofa and took a nap.
There was a "click" sound from the door. Someone stepped forward and stopped in front of the sofa.
Jian Qiaoxin woke up in a daze, he rubbed his eyes: "Mr. Yan? Are you back?"
The clock in the living room already showed that it was one o'clock in the morning, and Yan Gan's suit jacket was unbuttoned. The man had not slept for two days and two nights, he looked a little tired, but he didn't look decadent.
Yan Gan tugged on his suit and tie, his voice was a bit magnetic: "Uhm, why are you not in bed at this hour, what are you doing here?"
"Oh..." Jian Qiaoxin scratched his head embarrassedly: "I'm waiting for you."
Yan Gan raised his eyebrows unexpectedly: "Uncle didn't say that I will be back tonight."
If he did not come back, wouldn't it be possible for Jian Qiaoxin to sleep on the sofa all night?
Jian Qiaoxin stood up from the sofa, he skillfully took Yan Gan's suit jacket and hung it next to him, explaining: "I don't know when you will come back, but if you do, you will definitely not wake me up. Maybe when I wake up tomorrow, you have already left."
Yan Gan half leaned on the sofa and said, "Why, you have something to talk about?"
"Hmm..." Jian Qiaoxin smelled the perfume and wine on the man's body, and he pulled out a far-fetched smile: "Have you eaten, there is some porridge in the pot, I will heat you a bowl first."
"I've eaten already." Yan Gan walked to the sofa and sat down, with his slender legs crossed, slowly saying: "What's the matter, Uncle will have to go back to the company in a while."
Jian Qiaoxin poured him a glass of warm water, he thought about it, and took out a card from his pocket: "I...I heard Xingchen talk about the company situation today. This is my savings, although it's not much. I guess it won't help much, but I still want to do something."
Yan Gan looked at the card on the coffee table, his eyes were deep, and the corner of his mouth slowly raised into a smile: "Take it back, this is all your savings, how could I take the money you have been working so hard over the years to earn?"
Jian Qiaoxin shook his head in a panic: "No, no, no, you can use it, even if it can only help just a little bit. Mr. Yan, you have helped me so much before, and I hope I can repay you. Although I don't have a rich family background to be much of a help to you, I still hope you can tide over the difficulties."
Yan Gan's smile faded.
Jian Qiaoxin only wanted to repay him for his kindness.
In fact, it should have been understood long ago. From the time when the ring didn't fall in his hand on the mountain, he should have known it.
For so long, Yan Gan had admitted that he was not the type to force someone into something. It was not the matter of whether it was appropriate or not. The Yan family was not suitable for a kid like him to stay. Although Xiao Zihua was a little stupid, he still cared about his loved one. Maybe Zhao Tao was right.
Yan Gan tapped his fingertips on the sofa. He said, "Did you two see me today?"
Jian Qiaoxin was taken aback. He didn't expect Yan Gan to know, so he nodded honestly: "I waited in the parking lot, and then came back."
Yan Gan looked at him leisurely: "You saw me, why didn't you come out to say hello?"
"..."
Jian Qiaoxin didn't know what to say, he stuttered: "I was afraid to disturb you at that time."
"Disturb me?"
"You and Miss Zhao must have something to discuss. I heard that the Zhao family invested a lot of money this time. It's natural for you to have more contact with her..."
Yan Gan looked at him quietly.
Jian Qiaoxin couldn't go on talking. He and Yan Gan looked at each other's deep eyes, and for a moment, he was really speechless.
The hand on his leg was holding the hem of his clothes, his voice getting lower and lower.
In fact, it was not like that. He wanted to say that even if the Yan family really collapses, he is willing to use his money to help the man come back. Even if it is a drop in the bucket, as long as the two of them work together, life will always get better. He is not someone who is greedy and loves the riches. It does not matter if the man is not a wealthy person.
He just wants to be with Yan Gan and Ran Ran. It does not matter whether he has tea or a meal, it doesn't matter if he is to live in a shabby room. Being together is more important than anything else.
Jian Qiaoxin's lips slightly opened: "I..."
Yan Gan no longer hoped that this kid could say anything else. With the youth's temperament, he might say something to wish him and Zhao Tao a long and happy life forever.
The man sneered, "You're afraid of disturbing my good opportunity? I'm really touched, how generous Xiao Xin is."
Jian Qiaoxin heard the sarcasm inexplicably.
Yan Gan stood up and put the card in Jian Qiaoxin's hands: "Yan Group will not collapse, even if it collapses, Uncle has paved the way for you before. You have a calm temper and you can always make a difference in the entertainment industry. You should save your savings, so you can take care of yourself even after you leave Yan's house."
Leaving Yan's House.
Jian Qiaoxin's hand shook, and the card fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Yan Gan touched his head with gentle movements. He quickly withdrew his hand and moved away with one touch. He turned around and waved his hand casually with his back facing Jian Qiaoxin. His voice seemed to be emotional, and it was like saying goodbye: "I am leaving."
There was a "click" closing sound from the door, and the room was quiet again.
Jian Qiaoxin
As you wish
He's gone.
