She wanted to marry, and he was anxious

On this day, Wen Yining did not have any nighttime performances, so she finished work early.

Ye Zhihan got off work early and first went back to Qin Yaju to pick up the ingredients that Liu Ma had carefully prepared. Then he went to pick up Ji Yunxi from get off work, and finally the two of them came together to the small apartment where Wen Yining lived.

As soon as the three of them met, Ji Yunxi couldn't wait to tell them everything about herself, no matter how big or small.

Wen Yining picked up the cup of Happy Fat House Water and said loudly, "Come on, let's drink one together. Congratulations to the sisters for finding their own happy destination."

Ji Yunxi blurted out: "Sister Ningning, you and Brother Shen Yi have to hurry up, now we are the only ones missing."

Ye Zhihan and Ji Yunxi looked at Wen Yining at the same time, only to see Wen Yining's hand, which was picking up the food, pause for a moment, and then he put the food into the bowl as if nothing had happened and dipped it in the sauce.

"Why are we so tight, Xiaoxi? Do you have any misunderstanding about us?"

Ji Yunxi immediately said loudly: "There is no misunderstanding, Brother Shen Yi likes you."

"Uh, it's been so long, and you still don't have any feelings for Brother Shen Yi?"

Wen Yining stirred the food in the bowl and said slowly, "How can he understand what love is? Maybe one day the novelty will wear off."

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Zhihan said seriously: "We can all see that Shen Yi is serious about you."

Ji Yunxi nodded in agreement: "Yeah."

Wen Yining suddenly chuckled and whispered, "It's impossible for the two of us."

Then he changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about something else."

Ji Yunxi wanted to say something but was stopped by Ye Zhihan.

Ye Zhihan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that this matter could only rely on Shen Yi's efforts.

After the three of them had eaten and drunk their fill, they quickly cleaned up the "battlefield".

Wen Yining washed some fruits, and the three of them sat on the carpet and chatted.

Somehow, no matter what Ye Zhihan did or said these days, he would always think of Ji Hanzhou.

Suddenly, the words Xie Jiaying said when they first got married and went to Shen's house flashed through my mind.

She asked Ji Yunxi: "Xiao Xi, tell me about Ji Hanzhou."

Wen Yining raised her eyebrows and said with a malicious smile: "Huh? This is incredible. Now you are actually taking the initiative to care about your husband. It seems that your life has been very comfortable recently."

Ye Zhihan smiled shyly, "Hey, Ning, don't make trouble."

Ji Yunxi also said jokingly: "What do you want to ask, sister-in-law? Let me make it clear in advance that my brother has no love history. Before you, not even a little bit."

Ye Zhihan quickly interrupted Ji Yunxi: "That's not what I'm asking."

Ji Yunxi asked doubtfully: "Then what do you want to ask?"

Ye Zhihan thought for a moment and organized his words: "For example, his growth."

Ji Yunxi's hand tightly gripped the fruit fork, and her mood suddenly became depressed and distressed.

"In fact, my eldest brother has had a very hard time along the way."

Just a simple sentence made Ye Zhihan feel her nose sore. She sniffed and swallowed the complex emotions that suddenly surged up.

"What happened to him before?"

Ji Yunxi fell into memories.

Ji Hanzhou was born at the top of a pyramid that many people could never reach. With loving parents and a kind grandfather, he was trained as an heir from birth.

However, the more centuries-old a family is, the more complicated the relationships within it are.

"That year, my uncle had just become the head of the family, and my aunt was pregnant with my eldest brother that year. It should have been a great joyous event."

Ji Yunxi sniffed hard and her voice began to choke.

"On an ordinary afternoon, after drinking the tonic soup, my aunt had severe abdominal pain."

Ji Yunxi's sobbing sound...

"Luckily, there was a doctor at home. The situation was urgent, but my aunt was determined to save the baby in her belly. Although the baby was saved in the end, my aunt has since developed a chronic illness and her body has become weak."

"My uncle was furious when he came back and ordered a thorough investigation. He killed all those involved in the incident, which also caused dissatisfaction among many people."

"After my eldest brother was born, my great uncle didn't like him very much. At that time, all his energy was on my great aunt, and my grandfather was mostly in charge of family and company affairs. After my great aunt found out, she kept trying to persuade my eldest uncle, and my eldest brother finally got a little bit of fatherly love."

"The good times didn't last long. When my eldest brother was twelve years old, my aunt couldn't hold on and passed away. My eldest brother couldn't accept it, so he ran away secretly and didn't come home until the evening. He wanted to comfort his father, but he saw..."

Ji Yunxi's voice became more and more choked, and she almost burst into tears in the end: "I saw that his father committed suicide in front of his mother's coffin."

Ye Zhihan was already in tears, clutching his aching chest tightly.

Wen Yining's eyes were also filled with tears. "How could this happen?"

Ye Zhihan tried to speak a complete sentence: "What happened next?"

Ji Yunxi wiped the tears from her face, exhaled, and continued: "My eldest brother ran away again. He felt that he must not have done well enough, so his parents left him. My grandfather was hit hard and fell seriously ill at the time. No one cared about my eldest brother who was still a child at the time. When he was found later, I don’t know how long my eldest brother had been missing. My father took leave from the army and came back. Just when everyone was worried, someone called the police and said that she saw a boy being taken away with her own eyes. She also wrote down the license plate number. Fortunately, there was this kind person, and we were able to find my eldest brother."

"After my eldest brother came back, he became a different person and studied very hard. The Ji family was in chaos at the time, and my eldest brother was constantly being assassinated. Grandpa had no choice but to let my father take my eldest brother back to the army. He took on the responsibility of supporting the Ji family, but he also benefited from the help of the Shen and Jiang families. But it was still the Ji family's family affairs, and they couldn't get involved too much."

Ye Zhihan heard an important piece of information from Ji Yunxi's words. Ji Hanzhou was 12 years old when he was kidnapped, which was... sixteen years ago.

She asked excitedly, "Was your eldest brother kidnapped in the suburbs west of the city?"

So many years have passed, and the suburbs of that time have long since been developed.

Ye Zhihan added: "Sixteen years ago it was the suburbs."

Ji Yunxi shook her head: "I don't know about this. I heard about my brother's affairs from my grandfather and my father."

Ye Zhihan felt very strongly in his heart, which meant that they had met each other as early as sixteen years ago.

Ye Zhihan was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe. She couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. She murmured to herself: "I guessed that he had been through a lot before, but I didn't expect it to be so bitter."

Wen Yining was also shocked for a long time before she found her voice again: "I didn't expect that behind President Ji's glory today, there are so many unknown hardships."

After saying this, she comforted Ye Zhihan who was lying in her arms, looked at her red and swollen eyes, and wiped away her tears with heartache.

"Okay, baby, don't cry. Everything is over now, right? You should be twice as nice to your husband in the future as compensation to him."

Ji Yunxi also came over to comfort her: "Sister-in-law, brother didn't tell you about this because he didn't want you to worry."

Ye Zhihan's nose was a little blocked from crying. She glanced at the time and saw that Ji Hanzhou was about to come and pick her up.

She got up and went to the bathroom to wash her face, then asked Wen Yining to borrow some cosmetics to cover up the traces of her crying.
