If you hadn't come, how old would you make me

Chapter 43

"Wen Ran." A voice called her, "I'm having a nightmare, sleep in a different position, huh?" Then a hand gently turned her head over, and she fell into a warm embrace like this, Warm and realistic.

In the darkness, Ye Yizhen rested his head on his hands and lay quietly on one side of the bed.protect her, don't let her fall
She didn't sleep well, he knew it.She had a nightmare and was still sobbing in a low voice. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he wiped her off gently with a hot towel.

In fact, she was angry. The first time I saw her eyes after I came back, I knew she was angry.She said cruel words to him in a panic, and he was willing to accommodate her and make her angry.When she calms down, he will tell her everything.

But it was as if she was making trouble on purpose, and every time the atmosphere was created, this girl would not cooperate, and he had nothing to do with her.Just have to wait patiently.

"It's finally here." He kissed her forehead, hugged her and fell asleep peacefully.

This time Wen Ran really slept long enough, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already the next morning.She rubbed her tightly aching forehead and looked around wildly. After she finished looking around, an alarm bell sounded in her mind!
She was brought back by someone.

Glancing at the bedside, she saw a cup of warm water next to it. She picked it up, stared at it for a few seconds, and took a sip. It was boiled honey tea with a moderate temperature.

"Are you awake?" With a deep and hoarse voice, Wen Ran was startled, and almost threw the cup out of her hand. Fortunately, someone with quick eyesight and quick hands covered her palm, and a warm feeling came over her immediately.

His shallow breath fell to her ears, and her heartbeat accelerated almost at the same time.

"Well, the water is not hot, I'll go get you another cup."

"No need." She called out immediately.

Ye Yizhen paused, and then said: "That's fine, you wash up first, breakfast is ready, you can eat."

"No need." She lowered her head. After a night of drunkenness, the string stretched all over her body was broken, and she no longer had the strength to put up any airs to get angry, "I have to go to work tomorrow, and I have to go back to T City today. If you don't come back, my mother will be worried."

"Then I'll take it to you."

"No." She refused, opened the door, and was about to leave.

"Wen Ran." He called her in a low voice, and when she turned her head slightly, she could see him standing behind her, "Don't go."

He just pulled her like this, looking a little stubborn.Wen Ran looked at him, "I, why did I listen to you?"

Ye Yizhen looked back seriously: "You promised to talk to me, now is the best time."

Wen Ran almost ran away after hearing this: "Excuse me, what do you want to talk to me?! Didn't you already say what you want to say? Don't you just don't want to tell me by this time?" He lost his strength, and leaned against the door, "You always treat me like a child, do you think I don't understand the world of adults? Yes, I didn't understand before, but I understand now, knowing that love is a lie , knowing what to believe and what not to believe.”

After hearing her vent, he actually smiled: "That's good, it means you've really grown up."

Wen Ran glared at him, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Okay, I'm not joking." He clasped her forearm and said seriously, "Are you sure you don't want to listen?"

After finishing speaking, he waited for a few seconds.As he expected, the figure in front of him was a little shaken.

"If you don't want to listen, you have to sit down, eat and wash before leaving. You will scare people when you go out like this." The hair is messy, and there are obvious dark circles under the eyes.

Finally, Wen Ran glared at him, retreated into the room, washed up, and sat down at the dining table.They finished their breakfast without incident, and then she put the spoon aside and put on a "you talk, I'll go" look.But someone was still eating slowly, even cleaning the bowl after eating.

"Wen Ran." Just as she was about to run away, Ye Yizhen suddenly called her to stop. "Remember when we last met?"

"I don't remember." She said stiffly.

In fact, I don't remember where. At that time, she had already packed her luggage and was waiting for him to pick it up.After waiting for a long time to get his call, he drove the car by himself and hurried all the way from city T back to city B.

Wen Ran couldn't laugh or cry: "If you're busy, I'll just go back by myself. It's only half an hour between cities."

He just smiled, put her luggage in the car and took her home.When leaving, he asked her for a kiss as a holiday favor, but she refused.

He was helpless but willing to indulge, leaving a happy new year and driving away.

"Happy New Year." Over there were the last words he said to him.But Wen Ran knew that since then, she was never happy, could not receive his calls, and could not find his people.

I went back to school and asked all the people in the academy, including Mr. Wu, but they didn't know where he went.

Until one day, she mustered up the courage to go to Jingshan and Yezhai.

Ye Yizhen had already expected such an answer, so he paused for a moment, then seriously wiped the bowl with a clean rag and said: "I have a friend who married a girl who is many years younger than him, and his life is not happy. Because of that The girl didn't love him, she married him, and just dragged him as a life-saving straw. She needed the protection of that man, but she didn't need his love. Later, the girl died of dystocia, my friend Still single."

"Does the man love her?" Wen Ran asked intuitively, but forgot to ask herself why she listened to this story.

"His feelings are very complicated, and I still don't know it. I just don't like you because the old man is afraid that I will follow his old path." He smiled wryly, "He never understood me."

Wen Ran understood, and smiled: "Because the old man doesn't like me, so you don't like me either?"

"Impossible." He said firmly.

It was precisely because it was impossible that the old man took decisive measures and put him in confinement on the first day he returned home.

"The old man is really ruthless." Thinking of all this, Ye Yizhen smiled helplessly.

Wen Ran was dumbfounded, a little unbelievable.

"Later, I negotiated with the old man."

"Is the result what we are now?" Wen Ran felt a little funny.

"No." He turned his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, "The old man went to the hospital. I was so angry."

Wen Ran was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Then what is Ye Lao's attitude in the end?" She asked almost hopelessly.

"I didn't convince him." As soon as the words fell, he also wiped the bowl, "but that's not important anymore."

"Why isn't it important?"

"Because he won't object anymore." He smiled and gave the answer, Wen Ran was very confused by him.

"You didn't convince him, so why didn't he object again?"

"I didn't convince him." Ye Yizhen said, "There are other people who convinced him."

"Who?"

"you."

"Me?!" Wen Ran asked in disbelief.

He came over, took her hand pointing at his nose and held it: "during my absence, have you been to Jingshan once?"

She was startled, and turned her head away without answering.

And he just stared down at her seriously, waiting patiently for her answer.

In the end, her concentration was still not as good as his.

"I, I've been there once." She said, smiling bitterly, "I don't know if you're here, I just want to go and see..."

"What happened next?" He asked, holding her hand tightly.

"Later, I only saw your aunt, Mrs. Qi. She told me that neither you nor Mr. Ye were there." She asked Mrs. Qi where they had gone, and Mrs. Qi answered her in three words: I don't know.Perhaps it was then that she realized that something was wrong.It's just that she couldn't find anyone to ask.Mrs. Qi refused to say that neither my uncle nor his calls were answered, and she bumped her head like she had lost her way, looking at her posture as if she was about to crash into a plane and kill everyone before she could stop——

Fortunately, Lin Sheng stopped her.

At that time, she was graduating, and she sent out many resumes online at the beginning.There were responses one after another, and she also participated in some interviews one after another, but the conditions offered were not very good. She hesitated, and her work was delayed.After that, let alone.

Until Lin Sheng gave her an application form, a medium-sized company in T City was recruiting financial personnel, and the salary was quite good.She held it in her hand, hesitated again and again, and finally decided to return to T City to work.

"Decided?" Lin Sheng asked her again after sending her to the station.

Wen Ran nodded, looked at the bustling crowd, and murmured: "I want to do something."

That way you won't miss him too much.

When she regained her senses, she suddenly looked at him warily: "Why are you asking this?"

He smiled and said, "I just want to say that what you said that day is also what I want to say."

She froze for a moment, and thought of what she had said almost at the same time.

That day in Ye Zhai, she couldn't ask his whereabouts, so she got up to leave after looking at Mrs. Qi for a long time.

When she reached the gate, she suddenly held the door and turned around, shy and disappointed, and said to Mrs. Qi: "If you want news about him, please send me a message, just say that I am waiting for him. Also, I love him."

Thinking of these things, she suddenly felt very sad. This kind of sadness has an incubation period. Since then, the root of the disease has been planted. Today, she finally found an outlet to vent all her grievances. It was out of control.

"I don't love you anymore." She grabbed his clothes and said, "I hate you, I really hate you! I wait for your call, I wait for your call every day, and every day I stare at my phone in a daze. It's getting boring, you know?"

Ye Yizhen reached out and hugged her tightly in his arms, letting her tears wet his shirt.Rubbing the top of her soft hair, she said in a hoarse voice, "Ran Ran, I'm sorry..."

He has opened the phone countless times and closed it countless times.

He was worried about his little girl, but she was the one who gave him all his confidence.

I wait for him, I love him.

Tuesday is Mrs. Wen's regular review day.

Wen Ran wanted to ask for leave to accompany her, but Mrs. Wen refused.

Mrs. Wen was a little dumbfounded: "I can go by myself, you go to work, you have enough leave during this time, be careful that your boss fires you!"

Wen Ran said it was okay, but her mother insisted on not wanting her to accompany her, so she had to go to work after breakfast.

The hospital was a little far away, so Mrs. Wen decided to take a taxi there.But as soon as he got out of the corridor, he saw a black car parked there.Mrs. Wen paused for a moment, and couldn't help being a little surprised when she saw the people in the car clearly.

It was Ye Yizhen.

He obviously saw her too, quickly opened the door and got out of the car, and walked towards her: "Auntie."

This was their first real opinion meeting since he came back.Mrs. Wen didn't know what was going on between her daughter and him now, so she couldn't express her opinion, so she just nodded to him: "Hello. Are you here to see Ran Ran? She went to work today, I'm afraid..."

"No, I'm here to see you." Ye Yizhen said, "Today is your reexamination day, I'll take you there."

Mrs. Wen was taken aback: "You are so busy, it's not good to trouble you like this."

Ye Yizhen reached out to open the car door for them: "It's okay, I have time today."

In fact, after Mrs. Wen was discharged from the hospital, he made a special trip to the hospital to learn about the situation from the attending physician. Knowing that today was the day for the reexamination, he ordered his assistant to spare the day's schedule.

In fact, he wanted to see her today.

At his house that day, she cried a lot in his arms, but she calmed down after crying.He knew that she had hidden a lot of grievances in her heart, and it was impossible to forgive him all at once, so he didn't force her.

When he was leaving, he offered to see her off, but was rejected by little friend Wen with a haughty face.

The child said clearly: "You are still in the probationary period and cannot ask for treatment."

So Professor Ye had no choice but to send her to the station, bought a ticket and sent her to the train.Before entering the station, he stood not far away and looked at her who was queuing up to check the ticket. Occasionally, her eyes looking back would make him feel soft.But when he stood where she could see, little friend Wen ignored him again.

It's... awkwardly cute.

Withdrawing his senses, he looked up and saw Mrs. Wen in the back seat from the rearview mirror.When their eyes met, she nodded to him: "It was really thanks to you last time."

"Auntie, you're welcome, Wen Ran, she has been very worried about your health." Ye Yizhen said flatly after turning on the turn signal.

Mrs. Wen smiled: "I'm afraid I frightened her that day." Thinking of something, she asked, "Did she call you?"

The hand holding the steering wheel tightened slightly, Ye Yizhen shook his head: "No, I called her."

I just finished a meal that day, and I happened to drive by her house.By coincidence, he suddenly wanted to see her, so he called her.Unexpectedly, as soon as the phone was connected, there was a voice choked with tears from the other end: "Woo, mom, my mom..." Panicked and incoherent, he also became nervous, hung up the phone and turned around to drive towards the community.

Mrs. Wen was silent for a moment, and then smiled shamelessly: "My body is not up to snuff, and the child I hurt is also worried."

Ye Yizhen smiled, parked the car in the parking space of the hospital, and accompanied Mrs. Wen to the hospital.

The attending physician arranged a comprehensive physical examination, which went smoothly, and the results of the examination showed that everything was normal.However, since Mrs. Wen's blood pressure has always been unstable, the doctor still advised her to take more rest.

Mrs. Wen is engaged in financial work in the bank.Because work requires you to keep your mind clear, your nerves are always in a state of tension. If things go on like this, it will also have a certain impact on your health.

After listening to the doctor's order and walking out of the doctor's office, Ye Yizhen suddenly asked: "Auntie, have you ever thought about changing jobs?"

Mrs. Wen was a little puzzled for a moment: "Why do you want to change jobs?"

He explained with a smile: "Your current body is not suitable for these high-intensity jobs. You might as well try a lighter one."

"Oh, that's right." Mrs. Wen pondered, "I didn't think about it before, but I really need to think about it after hearing what you said."

Before, she thought most about raising a family, but now that her daughter has a job and her life is quite stable, she doesn't have to work so hard.

"Actually, your body is the most important thing. It doesn't matter if you quit your job."

"What you said reminds me of what Ran Ran said a few days ago." Mrs. Wen smiled, "She said that she has worked and can earn money to support me, and she doesn't want me to work again. This child. "

Thinking of the child's expression when he said this, Ye Yizhen's eyes that were as calm as water leaked a slight smile: "What she said makes sense."

"Little Leaf."

"Ok?"

Mrs. Wen looked at him with a slightly serious expression on her face: "find a place, I want to talk to you."

Ye Yizhen was slightly startled: "Okay."
