She wanted to marry, and he was anxious

Today, Wen Yining finally returned from abroad.

As soon as she got off the plane, she sent a voice message in the group. Even through the phone, the voice seemed to make people see the joy on her face.

"Sisters, I'm back in Beijing now, so we can make an appointment for a sisterhood meeting."

Ji Yunxi immediately replied happily in the group: "Sister Ningning, you are finally back. I have saved several restaurants on my phone."

Ye Zhihan also replied as soon as he saw the message: "Wait until Ning has rested, and then we will go check in one by one."

Although sunglasses and a mask covered Wen Yining's pretty face, it did not prevent people from hearing the full joy in her voice.

"Okay, but we have to make it clear that the first meal will be on me."

Naturally, Shen Yi could not hide the news of Wen Yining's return.

He waited considerately for two days, thinking that Wen Yining should have had enough rest.

[I heard that you are back. I will welcome you back someday when I have time.]

When Wen Yining received this message, he was having dinner with Ye Zhihan and Ji Yunxi.

No matter how well she concealed it, Ye Zhihan could still tell something was wrong at a glance.

"Shen Yi's information?"

Wen Yining nodded without hiding anything.

Ji Yunxi stopped picking up the food and listened quietly to the conversation between the two. She knew that there were some things she didn't quite understand, so she didn't dare to speak rashly.

Ye Zhihan sighed softly: "After calming down for so many days, are you still going to continue to reject Shen Yi?"

Wen Yining pursed her lips and tried hard to force a smile, but that smile was a little bitter.

"I just want to work hard now and don't want to consider other things for the time being."

Ye Zhihan respected Wen Yining's idea and did not stop her, but still expressed his own opinion: "In fact, you can make it clear to Shen Yi. He said that he is willing to wait for you."

Ji Yunxi nodded quickly: "That's right, Sister Ningning, Brother Shen Yi said that no matter how long it takes, he is willing to wait for you."

Wen Yining smiled. One has to say that Wen Yining was really beautiful when she smiled, especially now that she had tears in her eyes but was still smiling, which made people feel pity for her.

"But this is unfair to him. I can't be so selfish."

She lowered her head and looked at her phone, as if she could see the messages Shen Yi sent her through the dark screen.

"He has done enough for me. I can't take advantage of his love for me and demand more from him while giving him a future that I don't even think about."

Ye Zhihan didn't know how to persuade Wen Yining anymore. After all, there were some things that he hadn't experienced himself, so he couldn't say that he felt the same way.

She held Wen Yining's hand: "Don't think too much, and don't push yourself too hard."

Ji Yunxi sniffed. She didn’t understand why two people who obviously loved each other couldn’t be together.

But she put her hand on it as well: "Sister Ningning, no matter what your final choice is, you will always be my Sister Ningning. My sister-in-law and I will always be with you."

After dinner, the three of them went home.

Looking at the sisters who have happy lives and happy marriages, Wen Yining is happy for them from the bottom of her heart.

But she hadn't fallen asleep until late at night. The recent high-intensity work had allowed her to barely get a few good nights of sleep.

But once she had some free time, she started to suffer from insomnia again.

She couldn't help but open WeChat and scroll through the messages that she would not reply to but still received every day.

She also realized that they couldn't go on like this, and since they had decided to refuse, they might as well be decisive.

The next day, Shen Yi gathered everyone together again on the pretext that the company had won a big project.

He also specially picked a day when Wen Yining was resting.

But how could Wen Yining not see through such a poor excuse?

Shen Yi's messages continued to come.

【I know you have tomorrow off. 】

[If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. ]

[You must come tomorrow. I will pick you up at the appointed time. ]

Wen Yining finally replied.

【Congratulations, Mr. Shen. 】

[I have other things to do tomorrow, so I won’t go there.]

Shen Yi replied.

【What do you have to do tomorrow? 】

[I can’t tell.]

[A deliberate excuse to evade me? ]

Wen Yining supported his forehead with one hand, thought about it, and then made a voice call to Shen Yi.

Shen Yi looked at the voice call request that suddenly popped up and was actually a little nervous. He immediately straightened his sitting posture.

"Hello? Uh, didn't you call me? Why aren't you talking?"

Wen Yining swallowed and rehearsed the words in his mind countless times, but now he found it too difficult to say them.

She dug her nails into her palms to keep herself awake.

"I made it very clear last time. Don't waste your time on me anymore. I won't go to the dinner tomorrow, and it will be the same in the future."

Maybe he was used to being rejected, Shen Yi chuckled: "This time is mine, and I have the final say on whether it's wasted or not. Also, I've made it very clear, I won't give up."

"Also, you have to come tomorrow. I'll wait for you."

Wen Yining looked at the hung up phone, feeling helpless.

Who would have thought that someone you thought would be amorous when you first met him would be so loyal.

The next night, several people gathered together again.

Looking at Shen Yi like this, Ye Zhihan didn't know what to say.

Of course, she hoped that Shen Yi would not give up, and hoped that one day Wen Yining would be able to accept Shen Yi.

But as Wen Yining said, this is unfair to Shen Yi.

Compared to Ye Zhihan and Ji Yunxi's worries, Ji Hanzhou and Jiang Zhexu were obviously much calmer.

It seemed as if they couldn't see the sadness on Shen Yi's face.

How could Shen Yi's mood right now be simply described as sad?

He arrived downstairs at Wen Yining's building this afternoon, but was told by the security guard that Wen Yining had gone out early in the morning.

He sent a message to someone, and without a doubt, Wen Yining's reply was something he didn't like to hear, such as drawing a clear line between the two.

Wen Yining didn't come until dinner was almost over.

He picked up his phone and sent a message to Wen Yining again.

But the result couldn't be sent out.

He called Wen Yining again, and as expected, all his contact information was blocked.

The last message from Wen Yining remained on WeChat.

[There is no need to continue to be entangled like this, let's part ways amicably and live in peace from now on. ]

Shen Yi suddenly picked up the wine on the table and drank it in big gulps. The wine glass was placed heavily on the table, making a crisp sound.

Everyone noticed Shen Yi's abnormality. Ji Hanzhou, who was sitting closest to Shen Yi, also saw Wen Yining's message and Shen Yi's unsent message.

Shen Yi could accept Wen Yining's cold attitude towards him, and could also accept Wen Yining's rejection of him, but he just couldn't accept the current result.
