did not meet tonight

Ye Jian's mood was even more depressed than before, and he didn't even have the mind to go shopping in the garden. He returned to the room dejectedly, covered his head and prepared to fall asleep, but tossed and turned like a pancake, he didn't feel sleepy at all.He rolled over from the bed, his hair was messed up, and his dark eye sockets made him look like he had a fight with someone.

There was a knock on the door at this moment, and he thought it was another servant of the Chen family, but the person standing at the door turned out to be Yu Yuanyuan.Yu Yuanyuan, who usually faces the sky, puts on exquisite makeup, and her original black hair is also slightly curled, looking a little more mature, Ye Jian is very happy: "Yuanyuan, why are you coming here when you are free?"

"Azhe is preparing tomorrow's birthday banquet in the banquet hall. I have nothing to do, so I just want to chat with you." Although he changed his outfit, it was still the lively and outgoing Yu Yuanyuan when he spoke.

"You, the future daughter-in-law of Chen's parents, don't need to help?" Ye Jian asked jokingly.

"Are you even going to make fun of me with this?" Yu Yuanyuan said dissatisfied.

"It's not a joke, it's a blessing. Our family, Yuan Yuan, will be the daughter-in-law of a famous family in the future, so I don't have to work part-time because of the boss's face." Ye Jian said seriously.

Although he knew he was joking, Yu Yuanyuan's eyes still darkened, and he said in a low voice: "If possible, I would rather go to and from work like before. Although I don't earn much money, at least that's the life I want to live. Ah During this time, I never mentioned this to my family, but sometimes I really don’t know if my choice is right, what I want to be is myself, Yu Yuanyuan, not anyone’s appendage.”

"You, this is a pre-marital phobia! It was Chen Zhe who chased you back then, and he was the one who insisted on marrying you. If you really say who is the accessory of whom, it should be him!" Ye Jian pretended to be relaxed and comforted she.

"Ajian, do you know why the Chen family agreed to let Ah Zhe marry me?" Yu Yuanyuan asked, looking up.

Ye Jian was indeed puzzled, because their family backgrounds were too far apart, and the Chen family's family style was so strict.But he just smiled and said: "Of course it's because our family, Yuan Yuan, is gentle and virtuous, well-behaved and obedient, and the people who want you to be his daughter-in-law line up from the head of the river to the end of the river. ah!"

Yu Yuanyuan burst out laughing: "You really know how to talk nonsense."

"Why should I be polite to praise my sister!" Ye Jian said proudly, puffing out his chest.

Yu Yuanyuan sighed and said: "Although Ah Zhe didn't mention it, I already knew that the Chen family doesn't like me. The reason why they agreed to our marriage is because Ah Zhe said that if they don't agree, he will never marry me." Will marry someone else. The Chen family has a rule that the eldest son must marry before the age of 30, otherwise it will bring bad luck to the family, so our marriage is just because of this rule."

"That's also the result of Chen Zhe's insistence. If he compromises with his family, you won't be able to make it this far." Ye Jian said.

"I know, so no matter what happens to me in the Chen family, I can only endure it." Yu Yuanyuan looked at him and said, "This marriage is no longer between me and Ah Zhe, it is related to the entire Chen family. The honor of the family, no matter what I do, I must first consider the Chen family."

Her face was exquisitely and beautifully decorated by cosmetics, but Ye Jian could no longer see the radiance of the past. Yu Yuanyuan, who always had brilliance in his eyes, seemed to have gone to a far, far place, and stood there. In front of him was another person.

"Yuan Yuan, is this what you want?" Ye Jian asked hesitantly.

"Azhe loves me, and he will fight against the whole family for me. I can't let him down." Yu Yuanyuan pinned the hanging hair behind her ears, and said with a slight smile, "As long as he is by my side, I miss my love." can handle it all."

Ye Jian looked at her for a long time before asking: "Then do you think you are happy now?"

Yu Yuanyuan laughed and said, "Ah Jian, why are you becoming more civilized? Fortunately, things like happiness and happiness are like people drinking water and knowing whether they are warm or not, but I can tell you that Ah Zhe is very good to me, I believe him It will always be like this in the future.”

"That's good." Ye Jian sighed softly.

"I have to go back, in case Ah Zhe can't find me later." Yu Yuanyuan glanced at the time, stood up and said, "There will be servants on duty on this floor every day, if you need anything, just go to them."

"You've started acting like a hostess before you even entered the door?" Ye Jian said jokingly.

Yu Yuanyuan blushed: "I'm afraid you're not used to it."

"Don't worry, I'm just like opening my mouth when I'm eating and reaching out for my clothes, so there's nothing I'm not used to," Ye Jian said.

"That's right, and Brother Xiao is still here, so I'm leaving." Yu Yuanyuan waved to him, and Ye Jian sent him out.The door of Xiao Yu's room was still closed, and he didn't know if he had come back. Thinking of what he said in the morning, Ye Jian panicked.

He sighed deeply, and when he was about to go back to his room, he accidentally saw a figure flashing down the spiral staircase. Although it was just a quick glance, judging from his attire, it seemed to be... Lu Baoqian?

Her guest room is on another floor, what are you doing here?When she mentioned Yu Yuanyuan earlier, she was full of hostility everywhere. Could it be that she came here with Yu Yuanyuan?

Ye Jian was worried, and took a few steps to catch up. Lu Baoqian walked quickly on the stairs, and she could clearly see her raised skirt from top to bottom, which made Ye Jian more sure that she was eavesdropping on their conversation just now.Lu Baoqian ran all the way to hide behind a male servant, pointed at Ye Jian and shouted: "This man is chasing me, stop him!"

Ye Jian stopped, and the male servant looked at him vigilantly and asked, "Mr. Ye, do you have anything to do with Ms. Lu?"

"I..." Ye Jian was worried that she would frame Yu Yuanyuan, so he couldn't help following, and he didn't think carefully about what to do. He didn't expect to be sued by the villain Lu Baoqian first. Even if he wanted to explain, he couldn't find anything to say.

"Just now I wanted to chat with Sister Yaning, but he suddenly rushed out of the room and chased me, it was really scary!" Lu Baoqian accused him with a look of fear.

"I don't think the Chen family has restricted my freedom. Don't I even have the right to go downstairs and walk in the yard? There's only this staircase here. Why does Miss Lu say I'm chasing you?" Ye Jian's mood today Very bad, and what he said was merciless.

"Don't quibble here, I can see it clearly!" Lu Baoqian said domineeringly, "If it wasn't someone else's intentions, why did you chase me out as soon as you saw me? I am the eldest lady of the Lu Group, so it is hard to return Risking your reputation by slandering you here?"

She really had no reason to do this, and Ye Jian was indeed chasing her, but if she hadn't had ulterior motives, she wouldn't have run away in a hurry, and the villain wouldn't have complained first.He was holding back his anger today, and of course he didn't have a good face: "Since she is the eldest lady of the Lu Group, why would she hide at the door and listen to people talking?"

Lu Baoqian thought he didn't dare to mention this matter, so she exploded when she heard it: "What nonsense are you talking about, who did I eavesdrop on?"

"I don't need to say more about things I know well, but let me remind you, it's best not to do anything, otherwise I won't let you go." Ye Jian raised his eyebrows, his expression indifferent.

"Just because of your status, you deserve to teach me here!" Lu Baoqian blushed with anger, and instead of hiding behind the male servant, she jumped up and pointed at him, "People of your level, even those who entered the Chen family Not even qualified!"

"Whether you are qualified or not doesn't seem to be up to you to decide." Ye Jian retorted calmly.

"You...!" Lu Baoqian was so angry that she saw Chen Zhe walking in from the door, she rushed over and grabbed his arm to complain, "Brother Zhe, he bullied me!"

Chen Zhe was arranging tomorrow's banquet in the banquet hall, and rushed over after receiving a call from the servant. He didn't know what happened. Compared with Lu Baoqian's aggrieved face, Ye Jian's expression was expressionless.Chen Zhe glanced at him, then patted Lu Baoqian to comfort her: "You must have misunderstood, Ah Jian is not such a person."

"Brother Zhe, our two families have been friends for many years, why are you still talking for outsiders!" Lu Baoqian stomped her feet, "It is obvious that he wanted to plot against me, if I hadn't discovered it in time, maybe now...just..." As she said that, she bit her lower lip lightly, looking very aggrieved, and then said: "Brother Zhe, there are everyone in this world, and the society we live in is different from his. It's too threatening, let him go!"

"Bao Qian, calm down, I know A Jian, this must be a misunderstanding." Chen Zhe explained again.

"Just because he is from Yu Yuanyuan's side, do you just favor him like this? What about me, we have known each other since we were young, and you still said that you would protect me forever and take care of me, but now someone bullies me like this, but you don't care, Zhe Brother, you are too much!" Lu Baoqian said with red eyes.Chen Zhe looked embarrassed, and he helped himself: "It is because I have always regarded you as my younger sister that I believe this is just a misunderstanding. Baoqian, tomorrow is the birthday party, no matter what happens, you can't bear it, okay?"

Lu Baoqian sobbed twice, and reluctantly said: "Then let him apologize to me!"

Chen Zhe looked at Ye Jian in embarrassment. He believed that Ye Jian would not be able to do what Lu Baoqian said, but if he did not apologize, with Lu Baoqian's character, he would not let it go.Chen Zhe had no choice but to say: "Ah Jian, tomorrow is my father's birthday banquet and the day when I will announce my marriage to Yuan Yuan. I hope you can understand..."

Ye Jian understood what he meant, and when he mentioned Yu Yuanyuan at this time, he wanted him to take Yu Yuanyuan's feelings into consideration, make big things into small things, and make small things into nothing.He laughed self-deprecatingly: "I know."

"Then you can apologize to Bao Qian, we men should let their girls go, it's no big deal to say sorry." Chen Zhe patted him on the shoulder and found a step for him by the way.

Lu Baoxi raised her face triumphantly, Ye Jian looked at her and said, "Miss Lu, I was wrong just now, right..."

Before he finished speaking, a hand suddenly grabbed Ye Jian's arm and pulled him behind him. Ye Jian was startled, and looked up at the figure blocking in front of him.Xiao Yu's face was ugly, and the gaze she cast on Lu Baoqian was sharp and cold, causing Lu Baoqian to subconsciously back away, and there was no longer a condescending look on her face.

"He doesn't need to apologize." Xiao Yu's voice was as cold as a piece of ice.
