Home/ We’re All Especially Sympathizing With That Man/ Chapter 20
Since Peng Liya came here to show favor to Yan Jingxi in front of Yuan Zhan, she must have found out about the existence of Bai Yueguang.
The glittering evidence of Bai Yueguang’s existence was sent to her by Yuan Zhan himself. Peng Liya may still be mocking Yuan Zhan for being stupid in her heart. Even a person like Bai Yueguang would dare to put himself under Yan Jingxi’s nose to make people disgusted. No matter how far she is, within three days, she will definitely make the other person leave out of her and Yan Jingxi’s sight forever.
At this moment, Yan Jingxi tidied up his and Yuan Zhan’s suitcases again. For a person who is a bit obsessed about cleanliness, he really doesn’t like his things being touched by others. To him, people who have not had much contact with him are strangers, and Peng Liya is at best a relative of a relative.
Yan Jingxi has always had his own principles. There was always a long line of people who liked him since he was a child, but he never flirted with others, and he resolutely refused to give the other party any illusions, including the original owner. Even if they got married because of the insistence of their parents, he still adheres to his own principles. The simpler the relationship, the better, otherwise it would be easy to lose yourself in the vortex of emotions if it gets too complicated.
By the time Yan Jingxi finished tidying up and came out, Yuan Zhan had already finished the juice, and was sitting at the bar counter.
After seeing that Yan Jingxi didn’t have an overly indifferent expression on his face, Peng Liya’s anxious mood calmed down.
On the other hand, Peng Cheng couldn’t understand the ups and downs in his cousin’s heart, and he even chatted with Yuan Zhan about what games he had been playing recently.
When it comes to games, that’s Yuan Zhan’s forte, but he couldn’t move his fingers at this time, so neither of them got to see each other’s real strength.
Peng Cheng: “Wow, you are so advanced!”
Yuan Zhan: “Fortunately, my speed is too slow. I only rank tenth in the whole server, mainly because I spend too little money.”
Peng Cheng: “I spent money but it’s still very slow. Junk games have ruined my youth.”
Yuan Zhan: “It’s okay though. You can use many useful strategies available on the Internet, but it takes time to study them”
Peng Cheng: “Brother Yuan, I think you are very powerful. I can’t even understand many of those strategies.”
Yuan Zhan thought it was a matter of course. He has been in the gaming industry for more than ten years, studying it day and night, so how can he not understand?
The two of them leaned together and whispered to each other, and Peng Liya couldn’t get in no matter what, but Yan Jingxi interrupted their exchange of gaming experience as soon as he came out.
Yan Jingxi’s eyes fell on Yuan Zhan and Peng Cheng: “What do you want for lunch?”
Peng Cheng expressed his opinion without any hesitation: “Anything will do.”
Yuan Zhan nodded after thinking about it: “Well, me too.”
Yan Jingxi: “Okay, then we’ll come back to get the luggage after eating.”
Before they left, Assistant Chen went upstairs to deliver a document to Yan Jingxi.
Assistant Chen: “Mr. Yan, this is a contract given to us by our new partner.”
Yan Jingxi frowned: “Okay, I see.”
Yuan Zhan showed concern as Mrs. Yan: “Assistant Chen, why don’t we have lunch together? I think you have been quite busy these past few days.”
Assistant Chen was flattered by Yuan Zhan’s concern, but he still smiled and said, “It’s okay, it’s not too bad.”
Yan Jingxi: “Then let’s eat together.”
Assistant Chen replied in seconds: “Okay, Mr. Yan.”
A group of four people becomes a group of five.
The food in the hotel was decent, but it was too hot outside, so instead of walking around for long, they simply asked for a private room in the restaurant. This way, if they finish early, they could directly go to the airport to wait for the flight in advance.
Peng Liya was still struggling because Yan Jingxi didn’t ask her opinion on lunch. If she was really just an ordinary colleague and did not have other thoughts about him, he would definitely respect her opinion. In fact, he didn’t want to give her any chance to take advantage of the opportunity, so there’s no need to ask her.
With Assistant Chen present, it’s not easy for Peng Liya to act too much. She once again doubts the information she received, whether Yan Jingxi loves Bai Yueguang or prefers Yuan Zhan, he’s even peeling crabs for him to eat, it’s too suspicious.
Yuan Zhan’s hand still hurts a little, but eating is not a problem, but it’s hard to resist being served by Yan Jingxi for the past two days. Of course, he has his own thoughts, when Yan Jingxi gets used to his rhythm, he stops asking for his help. After all, for a person with mild OCD, it should feel uncomfortable, right? How can he spend a lot of time paying attention to him, and still have the energy to care about Bai Yueguang?
Of course, Bai Yueguang is the protagonist, as pervasive as air.
After lunch, Peng Cheng took a taxi back to school by himself. Even if he didn’t want to leave, Yan Jingxi still drove him away as he had nothing to do here.
They went back to the hotel to check if anything was left behind, then the four went directly to the airport. On the way to the airport, Peng Liya intentionally or unintentionally brought the topic to Beijing, hoping to gain Yan Jingxi’s attention and have the opportunity to have further contact with him.
Yan Jingxi didn’t answer this question, but Yuan Zhan suddenly became a good old man: “Hey, sister Liya, if you are free, you can come to my office to look around for a while.”
Yan Jingxi glanced at Yuan Zhan: “…” Since when did he become so enthusiastic about Peng Liya?
Of course Peng Liya agreed without hesitation: “No problem, I have time.”
Assistant Chen, who was focusing on his phone, had his ears pricked up, listening to the drama.
It will take more than three hours from Xiamen City to Beijing City. Yuan Zhan and Yan Jingxi were sitting next to each other, while Peng Liya was sitting close to Assistant Chen, and they were separated from Yuan Zhan and Yan Jingxi by a row. To avoid disturbing others’ rest, Peng Liya can only sit quietly.
There were no unexpected incidents along the way.
However, when they were about to get off the plane, Yan Jingxi’s phone made a sudden buzzing vibration sound as soon as he turned it on, with messages one after another.
Yan Jingxi doesn’t have to look to know who it is. He chose to pretend not to see the messages and stuffed his phone into his handbag before it finished vibrating.
Yuan Zhan also pretended not to know, and was quite happy that he didn’t have to show off his acting skills.
Yan Jingxi sent Assistant Chen to escort Peng Liya to her hotel, and they went straight home by car.
Peng Liya was a little angry with Yan Jingxi for not inviting her to have dinner together. Her father also sent a cooperation agreement to their company this afternoon. How could he be so rude to her?
Yan Jingxi, who was still young back then, allowed his family to make decisions for him. But now that so many years have passed, it is impossible for him not to have improved and changed. He has long stopped following the cruel rules of society. One Yuan Zhan was enough for him, and he wouldn’t allow a second one to appear again in his life, and Peng Liya was also afraid of being completely ignored by Yan Jingxi because of this.
Along the way, Yan Jingxi remained calm and did not reply to Bai Yueguang’s message nor did he make any suggestive phone calls.
Yuan Zhan was worried about him. What would Bai Yueguang do if someone came to find him, and talk about love? Bai Yueguang didn’t love him either.
It wasn’t until Yan Jingxi returned home that he had the chance to read the WeChat messages sent by Bai Yueguang.
——Jingxi, the man who was pursuing me, found out where I live, and he is waiting outside now. What should I do?
——Jingxi, have you gotten off the plane yet?
——Jingxi, can you help me? I am really scared!
——Jingxi, can you come and stay at my house tonight?
Yan Jingxi couldn’t help but frown, he replied to him: Is that person downstairs or at your door?
Bai Yueguang seemed to have been waiting for a response, and replied in seconds: He is still downstairs, but I feel that he would come up at any time, and he’s always downstairs staring at the floor where I live.
Yan Jingxi: It’s not convenient for me to come over right now, why don’t I send a bodyguard to protect you.
Bai Yueguang: Is it because Yuan Zhan won’t let you go?
Yan Jingxi: Why would you think so?
Bai Yueguang: If it’s not him, who else would want to hold you hostage with something?
Yan Jingxi doesn’t want to talk to Bai Yueguang about Yuan Zhan: I will let the bodyguard contact you later.
He didn’t understand why Bai Yueguang thought that Yuan Zhan was holding him hostage.
However, Bai Yueguang refused to give up Yuan Zhan’s topic: Jingxi, is Yuan Zhan still unwilling to divorce you? Since you told him that you didn’t like him, he would still pester you no matter what, you know that he’s actually sick.
Yan Jingxi: Xiaoguang, don’t jump to conclusions and judge others about things you don’t know. Yuan Zhan has never done anything wrong to me. We didn’t get divorced because there are still some things that haven’t been sorted out, so don’t make random guesses.
Bai Yueguang: All I know is that he may not have a good heart for you. By the way, are you really not coming over to accompany me tonight?
Yan Jingxi: No, I had a meeting this morning and was on a flight all afternoon. I just got home and I am a bit tired now.
Bai Yueguang: Alright, then take a good rest.
Yan Jingxi was very uncomfortable when Bai Yueguang commented on Yuan Zhan. He didn’t love Yuan Zhan, but Yuan Zhan liked him, always thinking of him, and now he suffered from depression because of this.
Yan Jingxi didn’t need to change Yuan Zhan’s image in Bai Yueguang’s heart, after all, they didn’t have much intersection, so there was no need for it.
Perhaps his own attitude caused Xiaoguang to have a bad impression of Yuan Zhan.
In Yan Jingxi’s heart, Bai Yueguang has always been a gentle, considerate, and obedient boy next door. He thought that even if he didn’t go to accompany him tonight, he would understand. But on the other side, after Bai Yueguang received the answer, he slammed his phone onto the sofa.
Bai Yueguang muttered to himself as looked at the ceiling: “Instead of getting a divorce, they are living together, what’s really going on? Could it be that they fell in love after a few days of business trip? It’s so annoying, am I not as important as Yuan Zhan?”
He couldn’t hold back, so he sent a message to Yuan Zhan. They added each other’s WeChat on the day they went to the hospital together.
Yuan Zhan took a shower as soon as he arrived home, unaware that some small things had happened between Yan Jingxi and Bai Yueguang.
Looking at his phone, Yuan Zhan saw a message from the ID belonging to Bai Yueguang.
Bai Yueguang: Mr. Yuan, are you there?
Yuan Zhan: What’s the matter?
The cold reply made Bai Yueguang unable to continue talking.
Bai Yueguang: Are you coming back to the company tomorrow?
Yuan Zhan: Back.
Bai Yueguang: Okay.
Yuan Zhan was confused by the question, what did Bai Yueguang want to spy on?
After changing into a pair of shorts and leaving the room, Yuan Zhan met Yan Jingxi at the stairs and asked, “Did you quarrel with Bai Yueguang?”
Yan Jingxi raised his head in doubt: “No.”
Yuan Zhanqi frowned innocently: “Then why did he ask me if I would return to the company tomorrow?”
Yan Jingxi’s point is: “When did you add each other’s WeChat?”
Yuan Zhan smiled: “We are colleagues, and didn’t you arranged it yourself, Mr. Yan?”
Yan Jingxi: “…” He now deeply regrets making this ill-considered decision.
Yuan Zhan touched his stomach: “Hey, Mr. Yan, cook some noodles, I’m hungry.”
Yan Jingxi felt that cooking noodles is better than talking about Bai Yueguang, so he quickly went downstairs and entered the kitchen.
He loves to cook!
