Chapter 14: Redemption

Yijian didn't remember how long she walked before she walked to the door of Xiyu's house, and took out the phone, "Hey~ Xiyu, it's me, Yijian." ”

Xi Yu helped the depressed Yijian into the room, made a cup of coffee and put it in Yijian's hand. Yijian's cold heart added a touch of warmth.

"Yijian, what's wrong with you, are you crying?" Looking at Yijian's haggard eyes and red and swollen eyes, Xiyu asked with some distress.

"Nozomi Ha... Am I bad... Am I a bad person? He said intermittently.

"What's wrong, how can you be a bad person, I, Cheng Xiyu, dare to vouch for my own head, you are definitely not a bad person..."

"Then why do bad things always happen, I've been.., I've been very careful, but why...."Yijian's face turned pale and her tone was choked.

"You told me, who bullied you, I'll settle accounts with him." Xi Yu shook Yijian's shoulder angrily.

He didn't say anything, he just cried secretly.

Finally comforted Yijian to sleep, Xi Yu sat silently on the edge of the bed, looking at Yi Jian's haggard and pale face, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and some eye-catching blood marks on her lower lip, Xi Yu wondered, what could make Yi Jian in front of her so sad, so sad that she forgot the pain.

Early the next morning, An's mother woke up early and walked downstairs. Mother Lin saw Mother An coming down from upstairs and said with concern: "Mrs., why don't you sleep a little more when you get up so early today?" ”

"The company has a very important meeting today, and I want to go to the company early." Mother Ann said weakly.

"Then you can use the breakfast first, I'm ready for breakfast."

"Ho... I don't have an appetite, forget it. Mother Ann sighed when she remembered what happened yesterday, walked out of the door, got in the car, and drove to the company.

In the car, An's mother put down the information in her hand and said to the driver Lao Wu: "Lao Wu, let Secretary Wang help me cancel all my trips this weekend." ”

Lao Wu said, "Okay, chairman." ”

In the morning, at Xiyu's house, Yijian woke up from his sleep groggily, looked at the clock hanging on the wall, oh my God, it's more than 10 o'clock, what should I do, I'm going to be late for work, Yijian immediately put on her clothes and prepared to wash up and go to work, and I saw a post-it note pressed under the coffee cup last night, which was written by Xiyu: "Yijian, I will help you ask the store manager for leave today, so you can have a good rest at home, I have prepared lunch for you, remember to eat." Yijian's heart suddenly let go, sat on the bed, pinched her eyebrows with her hand, and felt a little pain in her head, probably because she cried for too long last night, so she sat down and lay down to sleep.

Today, An Chengxuan also came to Yabo Company early to hold a seminar on the largest real estate project of An's Group this year, at the meeting, An Chengxuan recalled what happened last night, and the scenes of last night were replayed in his mind like a movie, especially Yijian's hurt eyes, and the look of not crying, his heart couldn't help but pull together, and he frowned unconsciously.

"Mr. An, Mr. An.." Ye Luo approached Cheng Xuan's side and shouted slightly.

"What's the matter?" Ye Luo's voice interrupted An Chengxuan's thoughts, and he suddenly came back to his senses.

"Mr. An, is there anything wrong with our project this time, I see that you have been frowning." Lao Li, the person in charge of the planning department, asked.

"No.." Cheng Xuan turned his thoughts back to the project and said. "This real estate project is the most important project of our company, and it is also the largest investment project of An's Group, so we must accurately grasp every detail, there can be no mistakes, I have carefully read your reports and plans, basically there is no problem, the next is the negotiation with the developer, this negotiation should not only bind the terms of the developer, but also try to maximize the interests of our company, so this matter will be handed over to the marketing department of Lao Zhou you to do."

"Okay, Mr. An, I'll do my best." Lao Zhou replied respectfully.

"Okay, if it's okay, that's all for today's meeting, let's all go back to our respective posts."

Back in the office corridor, Ye Luo asked as he walked, "Mr. An, what happened to you just now, I rarely see you distracted at such a time, is there something wrong?" "Ye Luo is not a gossip person, it's just that An Chengxuan is too abnormal today, his performance just now makes him feel very strange, An Chengxuan rarely deserts at work, not to mention that today is such an important meeting.

An Chengxuan interrupted Ye Luo's thoughts, "Ye Luo, I'm going to go out later, if there's anything, you can handle it for me first." After speaking, he turned around and walked outside the company, Ye Luo looked at Cheng Xuan's departing figure with great confusion.

Ahn Seung-hyun drove to the place where Yijian got off last time, and looked around, looking for the address of the Kaffa Town café. Then he slowly started the accelerator, came to the door of the café, and went in to look for Yijian's figure, but he didn't find it.

"Hello, your coffee." Xi Yu was kindly handing the coffee to the guest, and when he saw another guest walking into the store, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "You..." Xiyu said with anger in his tone.

"Xiyu, why are you talking to a guest like this... I'm so sorry." Chen Zichu, who was wandering in the coffee hall, heard Xi Yu talking to the guests angrily, thought that something had happened, and hurriedly stepped forward to relieve the siege.

"It's okay, I just wanted to ask this young lady something." An Chengxuan explained coldly.

"Then may I ask you to find our family Xiyu.." Before Zi Chu could finish speaking, Cheng Xuan looked at Xi Yu and interrupted, "Please come out with me." "Turn and leave.

Xi Yu remembered that in the few words that came out of Yijian's mouth intermittently yesterday, she probably made up what happened, and she knew with her toes that this time it was An Yiling who deceived people too much and hurt Yijian, and An Chengxuan was her brother, always defending his own sister, and it was not much better.

"Tell me, I'm busy." Xi Yu asked disdainfully.

"I think you know about Yijian's relationship with our family.."

Wow, you want to test me again, Xi Yu thought in her heart, and replied unhappily: "I know what, I didn't publicize it everywhere, and ah, don't blame our family Yijian, I forced her to say it." Xi Yu's stern gaze stared at An Chengxuan's face.

"I didn't mean that, I just wanted to know where Yijian was now?" Cheng Xuan asked in a higher tone than usual.

"Why, you still want to trouble her." Xi Yu laughed angrily.

"I just want to apologize to him."

"Apologize?" Xi Yu froze, thinking back to what he said just now, and suddenly doubted his ears, so arrogant and indifferent, the eldest young master of the An family, who had never disdained Yi Jian, wanted to apologize to Yi Jian? ? The sun is really coming out of the west.

"That's right, I caused this incident, and I should apologize to her." An Chengxuan continued to say seriously.

Xi Yu looked at An Chengxuan, who had a cold appearance in front of him, but a gentle expression and a sincere attitude, and suddenly had questions in his heart, he didn't seem to be as cold and ruthless as he looked on the outside, could he really care about Yi Jian? "Yijian, she lives in my house now, I think she may not want to see you recently, you give her some time first, let her calm down." Xiyu said lukewarmly.

"Then she... Are you okay? Yesterday... The way she looks.." An Chengxuan asked with some hesitation.

"She's not in good shape, but don't worry, I'll take care of her." Xiyu didn't want to talk to An Chengxuan much, but seeing that he was very worried, he still told him angrily.

"That's good, then I'll trouble you." After speaking, he turned around to leave, and suddenly remembered something and walked back, and came to Xiyu, "By the way, can you give me her contact number?" ”

What, he doesn't even have Yijian's phone number yet, it's really funny, is this what a brother should look like?? Thinking about it, forget it, who made him An Chengxuan, so he took out his mobile phone, found out Yijian's number and reported it to An Chengxuan.

In the afternoon, Yan Yi finished dealing with the work at hand and felt that there should be nothing to deal with, so he told the secretary Amy that he would not be there in the afternoon and called him for something. Then I drove to the cake shop where I took Yijian to eat last time and bought Yijian's matcha-flavored cake that she liked to eat, and happily went to the café to find Yijian.

Yan Yi walked into the café, there was no shadow of Yijian everywhere, there was no hall, kitchen, or lounge, thinking that something was wrong, Yijian had to go to work today, thinking that it might be out, so he sat in Zichu's office and waited for Yijian.

"Hey, Zichu, didn't Yijian go to work today?" Half an hour had passed and still hadn't seen Yijian, Yan Yi asked Chen Zichu strangely.

"Yijian, she took a leave of absence today." Zichu thought back.

"Take a leave of absence... Did she say anything? ”

Zichu said with some uncertainty: "It seems that she has a cold, and it was Xiyu who helped her take leave." ”

Yan Yi hurriedly found Xi Yu who was busy in the hall, "Xi Yu, what's wrong with her?" ”

Why is it Yijian again, why are so many people coming to Yijian today, "She's fine, she just has a cold, so she is resting at my house." Xi Yu replied helplessly.

"At your house?"

"yes, can't you?"

"No, then she.. Is a cold serious? Belch... Is it convenient for me to go over and see her? ”

"It's inconvenient, uh... No, I mean my house is very messy, and I'm busy right now, hehe, I can't take you there, and you don't have to worry, I'll help you take care of Yijian, don't worry, rest assured.." Xi Yu thought to herself that Yijian should not want Yan Yi to see her haggard appearance now, so as not to be difficult to explain, so she found a reason to prevaricate Yan Yi.

Yan Yi understood that it was indeed a bit abrupt to go to the girl's house rashly, so he had to give up and said to Xi Yu: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, if she has anything, remember to call me." ”

"Okay, I got it." Nozomi nodded.

"Oh, by the way, I bought a cake and put it in your manager's office, you can take it and eat it." After saying that, he reluctantly left the café.

"Yijian, how are you?" Xiyu returned home, saw Yijian who was still asleep, and asked softly.

"I'm better, I'm fine." Yi Jian opened his eyes dimly and said.

"I also said that it was okay, and the voice was like a mosquito."

"I'm really fine, don't worry." Yi Jian reluctantly showed a smile.

"Also, you didn't eat the lunch I prepared for you." Xiyu said unhappily.

"I can't eat, so I want to sleep more."

"Hi.... If you can't do this, I'll do it for you all over again. After saying that, Xiyu closed the door and walked to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Yijian, who had slept all day, felt much better, so she insisted on going to work, but Xi Yu couldn't stop her.

It's been a few days like this, tomorrow is another good weekend, these days at work, I haven't been receiving messages and phone calls from Yan Yi with concern, Yan Yi wants to know how she has a cold, why she has a good cold, and she lives in Xiyu's house, etc., she prevaricated back with various reasons, but Cheng Xuan's message surprised her a little, he apologized, although it was just a few simple words, but she didn't know how to reply to him, so she had to leave it like this.

After doing the quarterly inventory and report of the café, Yijian and Xiyu returned to Xiyu's house while talking, and Xiyu took out the key and opened the door and walked in while laughing.

At this time, Yijian's mobile phone rang suddenly, Yijian took out her mobile phone and looked at it, it was An's mother calling, Yijian paused for a few seconds, picked up the phone, and An's mother's eager and gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, "Yijian, it's Mom.."

"Mom, what's the matter with you?"

"How are you doing these days, Mom is worried about you."

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry." Yijian still replied very politely.

"Yijian, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are weekends, and my mother wants you to accompany my mother to a place, just our mother and daughter."

"Mom, I..."

"That's it, you send me the address, and I'll pick you up tomorrow morning." Mother Ann waited expectantly for Jane's response.

"Okay.." After hanging up the phone, Yijian gave Xiyu a small look for help, Xiyu didn't say anything, just patted Yijian's shoulder and shook her head from side to side. Xi Yu knew in her heart that An's mother was the only person in the An family who really cared about Yijian, and if An's mother looked for Yijian, there would naturally be nothing wrong with it, and she would naturally rest assured.

On Saturday morning, a luxury car was parked in front of Xiyu's house, and Yijian was waiting at the door early, An's mother walked down from the car, walked quickly to Yijian's front, and took Yijian's hand, Yijian looked at An's mother with a smile and called slowly: "Mom~".

"Yijian, I haven't seen you at home these days, I'm really not used to it."

"Hello aunt~" Xiyu stood beside Yijian and nodded hello to An's mother. This is the first time she has seen An's mother, who is often mentioned in Yijian's mouth, An's mother is in her fifties, but her skin is still so smooth and fair, her eyebrows and eyes are hidden in the corners of her eyes, her face is delicate, and her charm still exists, it seems that time has not left any traces on her, and she can't help but admire in her heart.

"Hello, you are Yijian's friend, thanks to your care for Yijian these days, I should thank you well." Anmu said to Xiyu with a smile.

"Auntie, you're polite, Yijian is my good friend, and I should take care of her."

After some politeness, An's mother left Xiyu's house with Yijian, drove for about three hours, and came to a holiday hot spring villa, which was smoky and elegant, like a fairyland. The pure natural and clear water of the pond is flowing loudly, and the wind carrying a strong smell of sulfur comes to the nostrils. An's mother and Yijian changed into bathrobes and sat in the soup pool and began a heart-to-heart conversation between mother and daughter.

"Yijian, mom has to apologize to you for what happened to Yiling that night." Mother Ann spoke first to break the silence.

"Mom, it's all over, I don't think about it anymore."

"Mommy knows you're a sensible child." An's mother felt comforted and continued: "But because you are too sensible, sensible makes me a little sad. ”

Yijian was puzzled, raised her head and looked at An's mother suspiciously, although the soup pool was full of fog, but Yijian still saw the lonely expression on An's mother's face slightly.

"In the past few days when you have been away, I suddenly have a feeling of emptiness, your well-behaved, your filial piety, and your bits and pieces have appeared in front of my eyes, since you came to Anjia, you have never left my side for so long, I know you are really sad." An's mother looked depressed, and continued in a low voice, "Since the first day you stepped into An's house, I have always treated you as my own daughter, and it is not just for Yiling, my mother swears, but you... It's really sad that you're ready to leave. ”

"Mom~ I didn't..."Seeing An's mother so sad, Yijian couldn't bear it, and wanted to explain it out loud, but what could she explain, she originally planned to do this, and when Yiling got better, she would leave the An family to live alone, and she and the An family would return to their previous appearance, and Yijian suddenly didn't know how to say it...

"Mom never wanted you to pay you back, what to ask you in return, Mom just hopes that you can stay by my side for a long time, even if you get married in the future, you can come back to see me often." Mother An's tone was a little excited.

Yijian's originally aggrieved heart heard An's mother's sensational words, and felt more and more sad, her chest was abnormally tight, and tears fell from her eyes unconsciously, "Mom~ I'm sorry." She didn't know what else she could say besides being sorry, because she still didn't want to change her plans all along, she still wanted to leave, even if she didn't give up her mother in her heart, but she would still leave after all, she would return to her own life, and let everything in the An family go back to the way it was.

"Let's go home with Mommy, Jane." An's mother looked at Yijian's face with bright eyes and said.

After a long silence, Yijian spoke, "Okay." Even if it wasn't for An's mother's request, she would still return to An's house, because she still had to finish what she had to do, so she had to go back.

That night, An's mother came to Yijian's room and said that she wanted to sleep with Yijian, just like the usual mother and daughter, Yijian was embarrassed, but she couldn't refuse, so she had to agree, and it took a long time before she fell asleep peacefully.

The next day, An's mother took Yijian back to An's house, and when Lin's mother saw Yijian coming back, she greeted her happily, and her voice was so loud that everyone in An's villa could hear it.
