Translator: 549690339

the next day, xiao zhao, who had not seen shi yan in a cheongsam the day before, saw her wearing a light-colored lady’s long dress and sitting at the dining table for breakfast. she couldn’t help but praise,”Miss Shi, you look really good in this outfit.”

“thank you,” shi yan replied with a smile.

Her smile was beautiful and gentle, and it was very infectious. Xiao Zhao couldn’t help but smile as well. He chatted,”Is this the dress that miss Shi and miss Shi bought when they went shopping?”

after being in contact with shi yan for a long time, he grew to like her more and more. seeing that shi yan was an easy-going person, little zhao became more open. occasionally, he would chat with shi yan, which added some liveliness to the courtyard where shi yan lived alone.

Shi Yan smiled and nodded.

“It’s really nice.” Little Zhao praised again. f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮

after complimenting her, she couldn’t help but glance in shi yan’s direction.

Her black and long hair hung down to her waist, and she had a gentle and beautiful face. Her temperament was already elegant and out of this world. Now that she was wearing a fairy-like plain dress, she gave people the feeling that she was even more otherworldly.

“miss shi, are you going out today?”

shi yan was about to answer when she heard a voice.”yan!”

Jiang Rui had already entered the house with someone following behind her. Seeing Shi Yan eating breakfast, she said regretfully,”You’ve already had breakfast. I was going to ask you to go to the main building to eat.”

it was 7:30 a. m., shi yan’s usual breakfast time. jiang rui knew what time she usually ate breakfast, so shi yan could tell at a glance that she had made up her mind on the spot.

Shi Yan stopped scooping the porridge. She did not ask why Jiang Rui did not call her in advance. Instead, she smiled and asked, ” why did you suddenly ask me to go to the main building for breakfast? ”

usually, jiang rui liked to sleep in when she had nothing to do. when she woke up, it was already past the breakfast time at the jiang family’s old residence. she would always ask the kitchen to make something and send it to her courtyard to eat.

“I passed by your courtyard and suddenly remembered to call you. it’s all this brat’s fault. if he didn’t wake me up by calling me and asking me to have breakfast with him, i would still be chatting with zhou gong.”

“Oh, I forgot to introduce you. Yan, this is my cousin Jiang Heng.”

“jiang heng, this is shi yan. she’s the same age as me. call her sister yan.”

Jiang Heng had been staring at Shi Yan in amazement.

when he looked at her during the day, he found that miss shi yan was even more beautiful.

hearing jiang rui’s words, he quickly greeted her, ” “Sister Yan,”

sister yan

this form of address made shi yan’s eyes pause.

It had been a long time since she had heard someone call her that.

“hello.” he smiled and nodded.

jiang heng felt that her every frown and smile was just right. no wonder even someone like fifth uncle would treat her differently.

“are you the only ones going for breakfast?” shi yan asked jiang rui.

yes, my brother went to the office early. I asked grandmother just now, and she said that the road was too slippery due to the rain last night, so she won’t go to the main building.

in fact, she and jiang heng could eat anywhere they wanted. even if their family lived in the old house, they didn’t have as many rules as other families.

She didn’t know why Jiang Heng insisted on eating at the main building. Jiang Heng was good at nothing but pestering people. She didn’t want to be disturbed, so she had to agree.

when she passed by the smoking yard, she suddenly remembered that xiao yan might not have had breakfast yet, so she came in to call her.

“Then you guys go ahead, I’m almost done here.”

” i’m too lazy to trouble you. i’ll ask someone to send two servings over and we’ll eat here. it’s gray outside, and it might rain again. don’t get drenched again. ” As Jiang Rui spoke, she walked into the dining room and sat down at the dining table.

seeing shi yan looking at her with a slightly puzzled expression, jiang rui’s heart skipped a beat.

He almost let it slip!

last night, only uncle wu found out that they ran into yan and her uncle. yan probably didn’t know about it, so they had to keep it a secret, or yan might get embarrassed.

shi yan, who was thought to be shy, smiled and glanced at jiang rui.

Did he really think that she didn’t notice them hiding in the corner last night?

“that’s fine too,” shi yan said.

“second young master jiang, please have a seat.”

“sister yan, you don’t have to be so polite. just call me by my name like my sister does.” jiang heng walked over and sat down.

He had the air of a young man, but he was not flamboyant.

Xiao Zhao had called someone to deliver their breakfast in less than 15 minutes. However, Shi Yan was almost done eating when their breakfast arrived.

however, shi yan didn’t get up and leave first. instead, she accompanied them with a glass of hot milk.

of course, she didn’t just drink the milk. she was also eating a piece of cake.

looking at the familiar-looking box of pastries and pastries, jiang rui did not ask much. she blinked a few times and smiled with an unknown meaning in her eyes.

although she was worried that yan would get into trouble because of her relationship with fifth uncle, she was still happy for her. After all, it must have been very difficult for Yan to meet someone who could move her heart.

Since it wasn’t easy, he should cherish it and not miss it.

Besides, she could tell that her fifth uncle was interested in Yan as well.

it wasn’t easy for yan to meet someone who could make her fall for him, and so was fifth uncle. otherwise, with his identity and appearance, he wouldn’t be alone.

It was rare for two people to be in love.

“Yan, do you have any plans today?” Jiang Rui asked.

“yes,” shi yan said with a smile.

jiang rui didn’t expect her to answer so directly. she was stunned for a moment, then she smiled.”My brother is taking me and Jiang Heng to his friend’s new winery in the afternoon. Many of my brother’s close friends will be there. I was going to ask you to come along and introduce you to some people. Since you’ve already made arrangements, we won’t bother you anymore.”

he didn’t ask shi yan what arrangements she had.

Jiang Rui looked lively, but in fact, she was very careful of propriety most of the time.

It didn’t matter if it was anyone else, but this was Jiang Rui. She had good intentions and had rejected her once before. Shi Yan didn’t want to reject her a second time.

“what time in the afternoon?” she asked. If there’s enough time, I’ll go with you.”

Even though it might expose what she did in Sea city Base.

Forget it. She was going to live in Haicheng for four years, so she couldn’t keep it a secret for four years.

moreover, now that she had met jiang che, she didn’t plan to find a place where no one knew her and stay there for a few more years.

She was going to stay by Jiang Che’s side.

In this way, her whereabouts would be even more difficult to hide.

“about four o ‘clock in the afternoon. my brother will pick us up at the old house. yan, can you go?”

jiang rui’s idea was that shi yan didn’t know anyone else in haicheng. she had plans, and it was most likely related to jiang che. Moreover, Jiang che stayed in the courtyard all day. If Shi Yan went to look for him, she would definitely stay for the whole day and wouldn’t return so soon.

it was mainly because shi yan was a very calm person in jiang rui’s eyes, just like jiang che. if she was given a few books, she would be able to stay for an entire day.

“sure, just call me when the time comes.”

“Do I need to prepare anything?” he asked.

Since it was the opening of the winery, he might need to prepare a gift.

“no need, no need. we’re all following my brother to join in the fun. if we need to prepare, my brother will arrange it. it’s not our turn to do so.”

Since Jiang Rui had said that there was no need to prepare a gift, Shi Yan naturally would not prepare one. She was not someone who liked to be in the limelight.

“Then it’s a deal. We’ll call you along!”

she agreed to go with her, and jiang rui looked very happy.

“yes.” shi yan smiled and nodded.
