Chapter 541

541 Congratulations from my brothers
On certain matters, Shi Yan was very strict with the rules. It was the first time Shi poran had seen her eating directly in the living room with a plate of pastries.
when shi yan ate, no matter what she ate, she would sit in the dining room and eat in an orderly manner.
suddenly seeing the few plates of pastries on the coffee table, as well as the half-eaten piece on the plate in front of shi yan, shi poran’s heart was not as calm as it looked.
His gaze fell back on Shi Yan’s face.
she had really changed. He didn’t know if these changes had happened over the years or after he came to Sea city Base.
In the end, she didn’t refuse and walked over to sit down.
shi yan went to make tea for him.
After her divorce, Shi Boran’s aura became even stronger. Sitting in the living room with him, Jiang Rui and song Meilian were under a lot of pressure.
for a moment, jiang rui couldn’t help but sigh. fortunately, she and song meilian were both experienced people. if it were any other girl, they would not even dare to breathe.
perhaps sensing the two’s restraint, shi poran retracted his aura and nodded at them as a formal greeting.”Miss Jiang, miss song.”
“You’re too kind, brother Shi. We’re friends with Yan. You can call us by our names.” jiang rui said with a smile.
Friend?
shi poran looked at the two of them.
before this, he had heard that his sister had made a lot of friends in sea city base, so he knew all the information about them. But he couldn’t imagine how his sister was with her friends until he saw it with his own eyes.
She was completely like an ordinary girl with a sister.
This was good.
From this point of view, it might have been a good thing for her to leave the Shi family back then. if she had continued to stay in the shi family, he would not have been able to see his sister like this for the rest of his life.
“My sister is in your care in Haicheng.”
“no, it was shi yan who took care of us.” song meilian said with a smile.
After a while, she and Jiang Rui’s emotions slowly calmed down and they were not as uncomfortable as before.
“meilian is right. it’s yan who takes care of us. I don’t know about the others, but Yan really took care of me. If it wasn’t for Yan, I wouldn’t have been able to survive.”
The matter of Jiang Rui’s background had caused a huge commotion and Shi Boran had naturally heard about it. It wasn’t good to let the young lady bring up such sad things.
He could only say,”it’s normal for friends to take care of each other.” i know my sister’s personality very well. if you don’t treat her with sincerity, she won’t treat you as friends. My sister has been taken care of by you and the Jiang family. After su MU’s engagement party, I will go to his house with my parents to thank him personally.”
This was to inform Jiang Rui in advance that they would be visiting.
jiang rui had wanted to say that there was no need to tell her that someone from the shi family had come to thank her, but then she remembered that she and shi yan were going to be friends for life. there was nothing wrong with the two families having more contact, so she did not refuse.
“brother shi, you’re too kind. we didn’t do anything. we just invited yan to stay with us for a while. yan saved my grandmother, so she’s our family’s savior. There’s no need to pay a visit to thank us. If brother Shi, uncle, and Auntie are here as guests, the Jiang family will welcome them very much.”
Shi Yan came over with tea and happened to hear Jiang Rui’s words.
she could guess what they were talking about without asking.
he placed the tea in front of shi poran and sat back in his seat.
“have you seen your third brother?”
Shi poran finished a piece of cake and wiped his hands with a tissue. even the simplest of actions was pleasing to the eye when he did it.
jiang rui exclaimed in her heart, as expected of someone who had the same genes as yan.
“yingluo’s third brother? I didn’t see him.”
shi yan had thought that he would say something else. she didn’t expect that he would pick a common topic as a topic to start with, so she didn’t react for a moment.
“Is third brother here too?”
“according to his flight, he should have arrived at midnight yesterday.”
as they were talking, someone entered the house.
“yanyan,”
it was the shi boyu they had just mentioned.
Gu Qingqing also came over with Shi boyu.
Gu Qingqing was dressed in a light-colored gown, a faint smile on her face. She still had the delicate appearance that Shi Yan was familiar with.
“Yanyan.” He first smiled at Shi Yan.
“Sister Qingqing,” Shi Yan replied with a faint smile. He then looked at Shi boyu. third brother.
shi boyu didn’t expect so many people to be here, nor did he expect shi boran to be sitting here and chatting with three girls. when he saw shi poran, surprise flashed across his eyes.
He called out,”big brother.”
Then, his gaze fell on Shi Yan.
to be exact, it fell on the ring on shi yan’s hand.
he had met jiang che in the banquet hall and had accidentally seen the ring on jiang che’s finger. when he thought of how jiang che had not had a ring on his finger before, he immediately thought of shi yan.
he didn’t stay in the front hall for long. after asking for shi yan’s location, he brought gu qingqing over.
His gaze was so straightforward that the others also noticed the ring on Shi Yan’s finger.
Shi poran’s mind had been elsewhere just now, so he hadn’t noticed the ring on Shi Yan’s hand. Now that he saw it, his hand, which was holding the tea, suddenly stopped.
shi yan naturally noticed their gazes and didn’t hide it. she looked at the ring on her hand and said with a smile, this is Jiang Che’s proposal ring.
there was a long silence.
it was mainly because shi boran and shi boyu didn’t say anything, and the atmosphere was a little subtle, so the others didn’t dare to make a sound.
in the end, it was still jiang rui who braced herself and answered with a smile, ” “Ah, congratulations, Yan,”
Who asked the person he was proposing to to was her fifth uncle? she had to help him, right?
this was not the first time jiang rui had congratulated shi yan. when they returned to haicheng after the new year, the jiang family had congratulated them.
but shi yan still returned her a bright smile.”thank you,” he said.
when someone spoke, it was much easier for the others to speak.
song meilian and gu qingqing also congratulated him.
Only Shi Boran and Shi boyu remained silent and didn’t say anything.
When it came to matters with Jiang che, Shi Yan had always been calm and had never thought of avoiding anyone. Seeing that the two of them didn’t speak, she smiled and said, ” “big brother and third brother aren’t going to congratulate me?”
shi boyu still didn’t say anything.
shi poran stared at the ring on her finger again. after a moment of silence, he said,”congratulations,”
this congratulatory message was not forced, but it contained a lot of emotions that were difficult to explain.
“Thank you, big brother.” Shi Yan replied with a smile.
she stared at the ring again, and even though her eyes were slightly lowered, it was not difficult to see that she was smiling.
Clearly, she couldn’t hide her joy from Jiang Che’s proposal.
Shi boyu felt a lump in his throat. He wasn’t against them, but there was an indescribable sourness in his heart.
She had lost her cabbage for many years and finally found it, but it had become someone else’s before she could raise it well.
“congratulations, wanwan.” Without waiting for Shi Yan’s reply, she said to Shi poran, ” I’m going back to the front hall. Big brother, do you want to come with me? ”
“Yes.”
shi boyu then said to shi yan, ” qingqing is not in good health. the front hall is too noisy. i heard that you were here, so i sent her here. help me take care of her. ”
