Chapter 227 Ning Yuechen and Wen Yiqian shake hands and make peace
After chatting for a while, the aunt who was in charge of the house came over to inform them to have dinner, and then they moved to the restaurant.
Ning Yuechen was pulled by Aunt Qian to sit next to her. Aunt Qian kept picking up food for her during the meal. By the end, she was so full that she couldn't eat any more, but she was too embarrassed to refuse, and her face turned red from holding it in for a while.
She first stole a glance at Wen Yiqian and Xia Wenwan who were chatting with their heads down across from her, then glanced at Bai Yi who was discussing the country's latest policies with President Wen, and kicked her hard with her foot under the table.
The person who was kicked immediately looked over, receiving her pleading eyes, and his gaze fell on the small bowl in front of her that was filled again. He understood and naturally reached out to bring the bowl to himself.
Naturally, her behavior was noticed by others, and the atmosphere became a little strange for a while. Ning Yuechen's face turned red, and she didn't know where to look.
Wen Yinglan, who was sitting at the main table, noticed her embarrassment and turned to her two daughters and said, "Qianqian, Wen Nuan, this is Yue Chen's first time visiting our house, and you are classmates. Take her to the back garden to stroll around. It will help her digest her food."
Wen Yiqian and Xia Wenwan were naturally happy to do so. After responding, they took Ning Yuechen away.
Qian Xintong had almost finished eating. Seeing that the children had all left, she knew that the two friends of different ages still had a lot of topics to talk about, so she left as well.
At this moment, Wen Yinglan and Bai Yi were the only two people left in the restaurant.
"My wife has been thinking about Yue Chen all these years. She finally saw her today and couldn't help but feel happy. I think the child ate a lot tonight, so let's leave these."
Bai Yi took a bite of the crispy meat in the bowl and said, "Your chef is very skilled, and many of the dishes are what Yue Chen and I like. Thank you and your wife for your hospitality."
Wen Yinglan glanced at the bowl in front of her thoughtfully: "My wife really likes this child, and we get along very well. You are welcome to visit us often in the future."
"must."
At this time, Ning Yuechen followed Wen Yiqian and Xia Wenwan to the back garden. Perhaps because there were no elders around, Xia Wenwan was obviously much more active. She changed her previous restraint and pulled her to talk about some interesting things that happened during the summer vacation.
Ning Yuechen also liked her sharing these trivialities of life with him, so he listened silently and occasionally responded.
After the two of them chatted for a while, she suddenly realized that she might have overstepped her boundaries because Wen Yiqian was right next to her.
Based on her past experience, this guy was more concerned about being alone with his girlfriend.
She looked at Wen Yiqian and saw that he was also listening carefully to his girlfriend's sharing with a peaceful and stable smile on his face.
Noticing her gaze, Wen Yiqian smiled at her friendlyly, without any of the hostility from before.
Ning Yuechen felt a little more relaxed, and the few of them walked and chatted in the back garden. When they had almost finished walking, Xia Wenwan wanted to go to the bathroom, so the two of them sat down in the gazebo, eating fruit while waiting for her.
"As for the kidnapping case, it was actually because of me that Wen Nuan was implicated. Thanks to you at that time, otherwise I might not be able to bear the consequences." Wen Yiqian said.
"I didn't do anything, but as a classmate and roommate, I have the obligation to do my best."
Wen Yiqian looked at her and suddenly asked, "What if it was someone else? Would you still fight so hard?"
Ning Yuechen paused while eating fruit. Just as he was thinking about how to answer, he heard the other party directly point it out: "You like warmth. We both know this tacitly. There is nothing to hide."
This is indeed a tacit fact between the two of them, and now that things have come to this point, there is really no need to cover it up.
Thinking of this, Ning Yuechen simply admitted: "I do like Xia Wenwan, but I have never thought about doing anything. I just want her to be happy."
Wen Yiqian asked again: "When did you fall in love with her?"
"During the summer vacation of my freshman year in high school, she and I participated in a math competition together. She was the first place winner. That was the first time we met."
"So early?" Wen Yiqian was a little surprised
She always thought that the other party was a girlfriend she started to like after entering university, but she didn't expect that they had known each other so early.
More importantly, my girlfriend has never told me about this.
Thinking of this, Wen Yiqian felt a little jealous: "So it's love at first sight?"
Ning Yuechen glanced at her and said, "Yes."
"So did you guys keep in touch afterwards, or did you just happen to be admitted to Hua University together?"
As soon as Wen Yiqian finished speaking, she noticed the slightly complicated look from the other person. Just as she was wondering, she heard the man hesitantly answer: "The second time we met was during the summer vacation of my second year of high school, when we participated in a study tour together."
Ning Yuechen looked at the obviously stunned person and felt a little surprised. She thought Xia Wenwan would have told her girlfriend about this.
But if you think about it carefully, not saying these things is more in line with Xia Wenwan's kind and considerate nature.
Because I had just experienced a lot of bad things when I entered college, I was not only silent, but also unwilling to "recognize" the other party because of my inferiority complex.
In this situation, Xia Wenwan, who could see her pain at a glance, naturally would not mention their previous experience to anyone else, not even her girlfriend.
Ning Yuechen was immersed in this inexplicably happy sense of security when he heard Wen Yiqian say, "It doesn't matter. Wen Nuan and I knew each other even earlier. I knew her when I was seven years old. I'm very glad that she and I ended up with what we have today."
With this inexplicable desire to win, it's no wonder that he was so hostile to me before.
Ning Yuechen complained in his heart, but still asked: "You didn't like me to have contact with Wen Nuan before, why did you suddenly change your mind now? Is it because of the kidnapping case last time?"
Wen Yiqian looked at her calmly: "Yes, but it's not just because of this reason."
Ning Yuechen was a little curious now, and then he heard the other party slowly say: "My girlfriend is a very good and excellent girl. It's normal for her to have suitors, but none of them are good enough for me, let alone a sense of crisis. You are the only one, because you are too perfect, both in appearance and in other aspects, you are very outstanding. And Wen Nuan happens to like being friends with you, so I have to be on guard."
When she said this, a trace of annoyance flashed across Wen Yiqian's face. "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. When I first started dating Wen Nuan, I actually felt very insecure. I was always worried that she liked me as a child, or that she only liked the Wen Yiqian in those good memories. And your gentle and kind personality is very similar to me at that time. And you are beautiful and talented. It would be abnormal for me to remain calm when such a strong rival hangs around my girlfriend every day."
Ning Yuechen curled the corners of his lips: "Thank you for your recognition."
Then I heard the other person say, "But since the kidnapping, I realized that I actually didn't do as well as you did. It was me who brought her into that dangerous situation, but it was you who tried your best to protect her. What makes me even more jealous is that your love for her is very pure, and you only want to protect her silently and watch her live a happy life. I can't do this at all."
"But it is precisely because of this that I let down all my defenses against you. Because I understand that you will not take an extra step just because you like me, and Wen Nuan only regards you as a good friend. Your beautiful fate should not be interrupted because of jealousy, and I don't want Wen Nuan to be unhappy because of this."
