"That's good, you've thought of everything," Ning Yi said to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan then drove to the Ji family home.

Although this wasn't Ning Yi's first visit to the Ji family, it was the first time she had visited as their son's girlfriend.

"What, still nervous?" Ji Yan glanced at Ning Yi beside him.

Ning Yi nodded: "A little, it feels like we're meeting for the first time."

Ji Yan, carrying the gifts in one hand and holding Ning Yi's hand in the other, said, "It's alright, I'm here. I'll take you inside."

Then Ji Yan pulled Ning Yi inside.

An Hui was already preparing the dishes when she saw Ning Yi and Ji Yan come in. She smiled and walked over, saying, "Xiao Yan, Xiao Yi, you're back!"

"Aunt An," Ning Yi called out politely.

At this moment, Ji Shaoliang also came down from upstairs.

"Xiao Yi and Xiao Yan are here," Ji Shaoliang said with a smile as he walked over.

"Hello, Uncle Ji," Ning Yi continued.

"Alright, alright, Xiao Yan, quickly take Xiao Yi to sit down," Ji Shaoliang said.

Then Ji Yan led Ning Yi to the sofa.

Ji Shaoliang went over to help An Hui serve the dishes, and Ning Yi, seeing this, stood up and said, "I'll help too."

Then Ji Yan followed along, and the others helped out.

"Alright, alright, sit down, Xiaoyi, sit down. There's nothing else I can help you with here," An Hui quickly said.

Then they sat down at the table.

“Xiao Yan specifically told me that you can’t eat mutton or garlic, so I didn’t put any in. You can eat without worry,” An Hui said to her, and then picked up some food for her.

Ning Yi quickly caught it with her bowl: "Thank you, Auntie, I can do it myself."

An Hui glanced at Ji Yan: "Xiao Yan, help Xiao Yi pick out some food."

Ji Shaoliang said to Ning Yi with a smile, "Your Aunt An and I only recently heard about you and Xiao Yan. Why didn't he tell us sooner?"

"You made us worry unnecessarily, but now that Xiaoyan's girlfriend is you, we're naturally happy."

An Hui chimed in, "Yes, I like you from the bottom of my heart. Our two families already have a good relationship, and I never expected you to be with our Xiao Yan. This is like strengthening family ties!"

Ning Yi smiled and said, "I will be good to Ayan and I, and I won't let you down."

An Hui reached out and patted Ning Yi's back: "As long as you and Xiao Yan are happy, that's all that matters. You can tell us anytime if anything happens. If he treats you badly, we can always take you in as our goddaughter."

Ji Yan said helplessly, "Mom, what are you saying?"

"Don't worry, I won't treat Xiaoyi badly."

After the meal, Ji Shaoliang and Ji Yan cleaned up the dishes, while Ning Yi and An Hui sat on the sofa and ate fruit.

An Hui also specially gave Ning Yi a beautiful pair of earrings and a necklace as gifts, saying that she and Ji Shaoliang had prepared them, and that Ning Yi could come and visit her anytime she had free time.

They talked about their future plans and marriage ideas. An Hui and Ji Shaoliang agreed to follow their wishes and wait until Ning Yi graduated before making their relationship public, followed by engagement and marriage.

After all, the two had been together for several years, and they were hoping to get married as soon as possible, so as to be able to take responsibility for Ning Yi and give her an explanation.

It was already evening when Ning Yi returned home, and Ji Yan drove her back.

“Now we don’t have to sneak around to date anymore,” Ning Yi said to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan raised her lips: "Yes, we can do it openly now."

"I'm home now, I'm going back," Ning Yi said.

"Wait a minute," Ji Yan said.

Then Ji Yan unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned closer to Ning Yi: "Kiss me for a bit before you go."

Ning Yi smiled and then kissed him.

The two embraced, their lips touching and intertwining.

About three minutes later, Ji Yan finally let go of Ning Yi.

Seeing Ning Yi's slightly swollen lips, he smiled and couldn't help but touch them with his hand.

"Alright, go back now," Ji Yan said.

Ning Yi nodded, glanced at him, and then prepared to get out of the car: "I'm off then, be careful on your way back."

Then Ningyi got off the car and went home.

When I got home, I found everyone was there.

“You’ve finally decided to come back,” Ning Anyuan said first.

Gu Ai glanced at Ning Yi, who had just returned, and her gaze involuntarily lingered on Ning Yi's lips. It was clear at that glance that something had happened.

"Your brother knows you're dating," Gu Ai said, getting up and beckoning Ning Yi over.

"It seems I was the one who brought you two together, right?" Ning Anyuan said, putting down his water glass.

Ning Yi sat down next to Ning Anyuan, tugged at his arm, and said softly, "So thank you so much, brother."

Ning Anyuan shook his head helplessly: "You never told me you were dating before. Last time I asked you, you said you weren't. It hurt me so much."

Ning Yi continued, "I was thinking of waiting until the time was right before telling everyone, so please don't be upset with me."

Ning Anyuan sighed and waved his hand: "Never mind, at least it's Ayan, not some other rascal. But he's really bold, actually dating my sister right under my nose, and I didn't even know."

"You two, whatever makes you happy. But if he bullies you or anything, you must tell me. Even though I've known him for so many years, you, his own sister, are still the most important."

Ning Yi smiled and said, "My brother is the best."

After they sat together and chatted for a while, Ningyi went upstairs to wash up.

As Ning Yi was lying in bed playing on her phone, there was a knock on the door.

Ning Yi got up to open the door and found it was Gu Ai.

"Mom, it's you. What's up so late?" Ning Yi asked.

Gu Ai said to Ning Yi, "I'd like to talk to you a little longer. May I come in?"

Ning Yi nodded: "Mom, come in quickly, come in quickly."

Then they went into the room, closed the door, and sat on a small chair.

Gu Ai looked at Ning Yi, then took Ning Yi's hand: "Xiao Yi has grown up now, she's a young lady, and she'll be getting married and becoming an adult soon."

"Although Mom hasn't been able to be by your side every single moment in these twenty years, you are still very important to Mom."

Ning Yi placed her other hand on Gu Ai's hand and patted it: "Mom, I know all this, you both love me."

"As your mother, I naturally need to care about you more. If you feel wronged or unhappy about anything outside, please tell me immediately, and I will definitely help you find a solution."

Gu Ai paused, then patted Ning Yi's head and said, "You and Xiao Yan are at the height of your love right now, but as someone who's been through this, I still have to tell you something. You need to learn to protect yourself, and you need to understand your own heart before doing anything, okay?"

Ning Yi was somewhat stunned.

"Xiao Yan is almost six years older than you, so naturally he's more mature. Of course, you can't just agree to his requests or needs because you can't bear to or because he's just sweet-talking you. You have to think it over carefully and make sure you understand your own thoughts."

"Just don't do things you'll regret."

Ning Yi finally understood what Gu Ai was referring to, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.

Gu Ai knew Ning Yi was shy, so she smiled and said, "Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. That's enough for Xiao Yi."

"You should go to sleep early, I'm going out now."

Then Gu Ai left the room.
