Chapter 175: Truth Stripping
The Cold War began on that day, and although there was nothing to be seen on the surface, they still dined together, left work together, and still read their own books and drew their own pictures in the same room.
However, there are some things that are different after all.
Since Lu Xiang was discharged from the hospital, they have never mentioned Kang Xiuxing again. It seems that the man never appeared among them.
"Juan, what are you drawing?" There were some that broke the silence of the room.
"Random 'scribbling'." Yan Wanwan closed the sketchbook, Yan Yixin bet that she was not drawing a design drawing at all. Although she was still as productive and all the tasks could be completed on schedule, there seemed to be a loss of something called "enthusiasm" in her eyes, which made Yan Yixin's heart suddenly feel bitter.
"That'...... Would you like to have a late-night snack? Yan Yixin continued to ask.
"By the way, don't you say I didn't expect it, it's already ten o'clock. I'm so sleepy, I'll sleep first, just help me close the 'door' when you go out." Yan Juan naturally stood up and walked out of the study with Shi Shiran.
Yan Yixin looked at her back and smiled bitterly.
A person with the potential of a night cat who says he is sleepy before ten o'clock? Say it, who will believe it? Yan Juan was deliberately avoiding herself, which started from the night she was injured downstairs.
Actually, he was worried about her. It's just that Kang Xiuxing didn't pay the price for a day, and Yan Xuan's heart couldn't let go for a day.
He opened the notebook, and the traces of Kang Xiuxing had been deeply imprinted in the two incidents. Even if he tried to make excuses for her, it seemed impossible. He gritted his teeth, the stalemate, should have been broken.
Yan Juan returned to the room, of course, he couldn't fall asleep immediately. His eyes widened and he looked at the sky 'flower' board. A little gray in her heart, Yan Yixin obviously didn't take immediate action against Kang Xiuxing, although she could understand his concerns, she still couldn't accept such a result.
It's for her good, but she'd rather fight with Kang Xiuxing with real guns, even if she fights with Old Man Yan, it's better than being aggrieved like this, right?
"Juan." Yan Yixin's voice came from outside the 'door', his voice was low, and he was obviously in a very bad mood.
"Huh?" Yan Juan snorted from his nose.
Sure enough, I didn't feel sleepy! Yan Yixin smiled bitterly.
"I steamed seafood siu mai, let's get up and eat two!"
"I don't want to eat, I'm sleeping." Yan Juan had neither mood nor appetite, and lazily hid in the quilt and pretended to sleep. I forgot to pull the curtains, so the street lamps made the room half-bright and half-dark.
She rolled over and covered her head with the quilt.
"Juan." This time, the sound seemed to ring in the ears.
Stunned for a moment, Yan Juan lifted the quilt, and sure enough, she saw Yan Yixin sitting on the edge of her 'bed', still holding a plate in her hand, and five or six seafood siu mai were served in a white porcelain plate.
Regardless of Yan Yixin's craftsmanship, of course, this seafood siu mai is quick-frozen, as long as it is steamed through water, just this combination makes people appetizing. What's more, she hasn't eaten much for dinner, and her appetite hasn't been too good lately.
"I'm not hungry!" Yan Juan still has a little backbone. Doesn't eating him mean that she has softened a little? It's not over yet! Going in and out, this is not warmth, it is restricting her personal freedom!
Although she had never objected to it before, the situation was different now.
It is obvious that there is a cold war between them because of Kang Xiuxing, if she does not fight and does not give in, it will become her acquiescence to Yan Yixin's handling method.
"It's not that I don't plan to deal with Kang Xiuxing, she has gone too far. It's just that you're going to let me deploy, right? Yan Yixin sighed helplessly.
"How?" Yan Juan picked up a shumai, but just held it in his hand and looked at it.
"At the very least, I'm going to let Grandpa choose not to help her! Also, where is Grandpa Kang, he also wants to give him the idea of teaching Xiuxing a lesson. ”
"Your grandfather doesn't help, but it's okay to say. Her own grandfather...... As you said last time, there is only one heir left in this generation, and I am afraid that I will use too much force to hold her in the palm of my hand. ”
Yan Yixin's eyes sank slightly: "There are some things she has overdone, even if she is her own grandfather, she will not forgive." ”
Yan Wan snorted: "You mean, let her make trouble?" That's not easy, you don't have to accompany me these days, give her the opportunity to do it, are you still afraid that it won't work? ”
Her tone was a bit negative.
"How can I be willing to let you get hurt again? Juan, believe me, I won't use you as 'bait'. Yan Yixin was so anxious and angry that the siu mai in his hand almost fell on the 'bed'.
Yan Juan stretched out her hand to catch the plate, and this sentence finally made her feel better. Smelling the aroma close at hand, the siu mai in his hand was finally sent into his mouth.
Her actions made Yan Yixin breathe a sigh of relief.
"Then you can't use Lu Xiang as a target!" She said again uneasily, and then became deeply suspicious, "Then who are you going to target?" ”
"Even if Lu Xiang sends it to Xiuxing, she won't do it, okay?" Yan Yixin was speechless at her jumping thoughts.
"That's right." Yan Juan put his mind at ease, the siu mai is really funny, and he can solve one in one bite. In order to taste it, she divided it into two bites, in fact, she was still a little reluctant to let Yan Yixin go like this, and it was good to delay a little time.
"Juan, we don't have to be estranged from each other for an outsider, right?"
"Ahem!" Yan Juan was suddenly choked by a mouthful of siu mai, "What is irrelevant, she ......"
"If she treats you like this, I won't treat her as a sister. No sister would do this to her sister-in-law. Yan Yixin spoke softly.
Sister-in-law? How does this word sound a little earthy...... However, the heart is moist, and those siu mai, swallowed down the throat, seem to have turned into water.
"But you ......" Yan Juan bit her 'lip', full of reluctance, "I know, you want to find a 'female' person to accompany you in acting, be your 'female' friend, and then shift the target!" ”
Yan Yixin was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help laughing: "Your reminder is very right, why didn't I think of it?" In the end, there are still more ideas for 'girl' children, and the closer I have a relationship with that 'girl' child, the faster the goal of embroidering apricots will shift! ”
Yan Juan ate siu mai with his head stuffy, until his outstretched hand grabbed an empty one, only to find that he who had been clamoring that he didn't want to eat actually swept all five siu mai into his stomach!
"Didn't that bring in innocent 'girl' children?" Yan Juan said angrily.
"As long as it's not you, what does it matter to anyone else? Don't worry, I won't look for Lu Xiang. Yan Yixin said seriously.
"That's not good, others are also a living life, in case ...... I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life. Yan Juan continued to refute.
"Is that the reason?" The sound is so close, why is it that the ears are a little hot?
Yan Xuan, who came back to her senses, realized that Yan Yixin actually came to her ear. There is nothing wrong with this statement itself, but this posture is 'withdrawn' out of ambiguity.
She subconsciously dodged, and when she saw Yan Yixin's bright eyes, she dimmed again.
"Otherwise, what do you think is the reason?"
"I thought you were jealous." Yan Yixin continued to play seriously.
"Jealous? I didn't. Yan Xuan's reaction, he felt that it was, "There are no three hundred taels of silver here." "It turns out that what she is most worried about is not the safety of innocent 'girl' children, but the fear that Yan Yixin will 'make the fake' come true!
"I ...... Didn't think so. Yan Juan felt the need to justify himself, but even he felt a little weak in such a rebuttal, so his voice was very soft.
"Juan, between us, there shouldn't be embroidered apricots, she's not worth it." Yan Yixin held her chin up, and her dark eyes looked at her for a moment.
"Huh?" Yan Juan blinked.
"I want Grandpa Kang to feel that Xiuxing should be taught a lesson, so that there is no need to form a confrontation with the Kang family, and Grandpa will naturally not turn to deal with you because I made a move on Xiuxing."
"But, didn't you say that the Kang family is very protective of this only granddaughter?"
"If Xiu Xing is still there......" Yan Yixin sighed, "Xiu Xing wouldn't dare to mess around like this at all!" ”
Kang embroidered orange! Hearing this name, Yan Juan felt a little pricked in her heart. It's still the 'hole', it hasn't widened, so the blood doesn't flow much, but it keeps going.
Yan Yixin continued to talk about the two sisters as if she hadn't noticed: "Xiuju has always been the best 'girl' child of the Kang family, and when she was alive, Xiuxing didn't get much attention until she had a car accident. ”
"I know that Kang Xiuju is not only in the Kang family, but also in someone's heart, it is also the best." Yan Juan interrupted him angrily, because he was negative, so he didn't see the smile on Yan Yixin's face.
"In that person's mind, the best 'girl' child is someone else. Juan, you are unique. Yan Yixin's words changed, which made Yan Juan a little unable to come back to his senses.
Of course, she wouldn't be incomprehensible if she said such straightforwardly. But in the previous sentence, isn't it still praising Kang Xiuju?
"What can be done in the eyes of a lover?" Yan Yixin sighed helplessly, "Don't be so unconfident, your beauty, in my eyes, no one can match it." ”
Yan Wan glanced at him, didn't he know that it was taboo to praise another 'woman' in front of a 'woman'?
"The reason why I say this is to let you understand that the granddaughter who is really regarded as the pearl of Grandpa Kang's palm is embroidered oranges, not embroidered apricots."
"So what? Now there's only one embroidered apricot anyway! ”
"I'm now gathering evidence that the accident wasn't an accident, but a man-made one." Yan Yixin was helpless, so he could only say it very plainly.
"Artificial? Not an accident? Yan Juan finally caught a few key words, "You mean that Kang Xiuju's death was caused by human factors." And this man is artificially ...... It's ......"
Yan Yixin nodded slowly.
"Impossible!" Yan Juan shook her head without thinking about it, "It's her own sister, no matter how crazy she is, it can't be her hand!" ”
Although she didn't have a good impression of Kang Xiuxing, Yan Yixin's conclusion was too unbelievable, right?
