Chapter 203 Going Home to Meet My Fiancée
We were separated for a while after that. This year's Spring Festival was more lively than usual, except that Ji Yan was missing.
Lu Yuzhu's parents also came here to celebrate the New Year with us, as did her maternal grandmother. After all, her eldest grandson got married, so she wanted to stay in China for a while longer.
"Xiao Yi, eat more dumplings, they have your favorite filling. And drink some hot milk before bed. Don't catch a cold during the New Year holidays," Gu Ai said as she served Ning Yi soup.
Ning Yi took the bowl of hot soup and said to Gu Ai, "Okay, Mom, don't worry about me, just eat."
"Will there be another program featuring Xiaoyan soon? Change the channel! When will Xiaoyi and Xiaoyan appear?" Grandma asked happily.
Ning Yi smiled and then switched the TV channel: "There'll be a while."
Seeing everyone enjoying themselves so much, Ningyi felt a warmth in her heart. It's wonderful that every year can be this happy and joyful.
An interview with Ji Yan has surfaced online, in which a reporter asked him what the first thing he would do after the Spring Festival Gala was.
Ji Yan smiled at the camera and said, "I'm going home for the New Year, and then I'll meet my fiancée."
The interview, once posted online, sparked a wave of criticism from netizens.
"Wow, so blatantly obvious, true love indeed! @JiYan @NingYi"
"My god, is this how you show off your love?"
"I'm totally obsessed!"
"I want to possess Ning Yi's soul!"
@Ningyi @Ningyi
"Does nobody understand that laugh?"
……
Seeing this, Ning Yi couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips. Was it really okay for Ji Yan to be so openly showing off their love?
After participating in the program, Ji Yan took a plane back overnight. The weather was already cold, and he had just finished work and traveled overnight. Xu Zhi said that Ji Yan had caught a cold.
When Ji Yan returned to the neighboring city, it was already the afternoon of the next day. An Hui and the others knew that Ji Yan was coming back, so they prepared a meal for him early in the morning.
Seeing that Ji Yan looked unwell, An Hui insisted on taking him to the hospital, but he said that taking some medicine would be fine. So An Hui sent a message to Ning Yi, asking her to persuade Ji Yan.
Ning Yi was worried because she knew that Ji Yan was sick and didn't want to go to the hospital, so she rushed to Ji Yan's house.
"Xiaoyi, you're here. Xiaoyan went back to his room to sleep. I saw that he looked pale and didn't eat much. With the weather so cold and his work so tiring these days, how could his body not break down?" An Hui said worriedly, pulling Xiaoyi along.
Ji Shaoliang was drinking tea when he said to An Hui, "Don't make Xiaoyi worry. Let Xiaoyan rest first; she'll still need to go to the hospital if necessary."
Ning Yi patted An Hui's hand to comfort her, "Auntie, don't worry. If his complexion doesn't improve after he rests and his cold gets worse, I will definitely take him to the hospital. I'll make him some hot soup in a bit."
An Hui was finally relieved. She rarely saw Ji Yan, who was her biological son, so how could she not worry? She had been advising Ji Yan to leave the entertainment industry, as he was too busy with work and couldn't take care of his health.
There was no family or relatives around to take care of him. Ji Yan was their only son. Although they didn't want him to be a rich kid without ambition, they also didn't want him to risk his health like this.
An Hui pulled Ning Yi to sit down on the sofa and said to her, "Xiao Yi, if you can persuade Xiao Yan to leave the entertainment industry, then try to persuade him too. He's not getting any younger. If you're still working in the entertainment industry after you get married, you won't see each other more than a few times a year."
"This isn't good for you or your family. His dad and I have talked to him about it several times, but he always makes excuses. He truly loves you and will definitely think about your feelings."
Ning Yi pursed her lips and explained, "Actually, Ayan mentioned retiring from the entertainment industry to me. He plans to wait a few more years before retiring, Auntie."
"Actually, I can understand Ayan's feelings. After all, this was Ayan's dream. Besides, I still have a year before graduation, and I need to focus my energy on my career, so I can wait for Ayan."
An Hui patted Ning Yi's head with a look of heartache: "Xiao Yi is so understanding. If Xiao Yan's dad was someone I only saw a few times a year and was busy with work all day, I would be so angry that I wouldn't want to live with him anymore."
"I'm just worried you'll be wronged."
Ning Yi smiled at her: "I know Auntie is doing this for my own good, and I trust Ayan to handle these things well."
When Ji Yan woke up, he went downstairs and saw Ning Yi, An Hui, and Ji Shaoliang sitting on the sofa watching TV.
"Mom and Dad, Xiaoyi, what brings you here?" Ji Yan said as she came downstairs.
He had texted Ning Yi about going home, but he wasn't feeling well and ate something before falling asleep quickly.
Before the show, I was frozen for several hours, and then I had to be on high alert in front of the stage and the camera. After the show, I had to interact with fans and then rush to catch a plane.
However, it's comforting to know that Ji Yan had to rush home to see his family and fiancée after the show, so they were all very understanding and said a few words to him before letting him leave.
When Ning Yi saw Ji Yan come down, she stood up and said with a slight smile, "You're awake?"
There's chicken soup in the kitchen; I'll go get some for you.
Then Ning Yi went to the kitchen and brought over some chicken soup. An Hui asked Ji Yan, "How are you feeling? Is there anything else that's bothering you? I'll go get the thermometer."
After saying that, An Hui went to get the thermometer. Ji Yan stood there, slightly stunned. Ji Shaoliang said, "What are you standing there for? Come and sit down."
"This year's Spring Festival was so lively and festive, except for you. Seeing all the Ning family boys get married and have their own families makes us elders very happy. Xiaoyan, work is work, but health is the most important thing."
Hearing this concern, Ji Yan couldn't help but smile: "I understand, Dad."
Ji Shaoliang is not good with words and doesn't know how to say nice things. Because of this, An Hui often complains about him. Although Ji Yan is his son, he rarely hears Ji Shaoliang take the initiative to show concern, because he is not good with words.
After a while, Ning Yi brought over chicken soup for Ji Yan to drink: "I've been simmering this for a long time, you have to finish it."
Ji Yan's eyes revealed doting affection: "Okay, of course I'll finish every last drop of the soup you painstakingly made for me."
At this moment, An Hui also brought over the thermometer. After Ji Yan put the thermometer inside his clothes, she stared at Ji Yan and Ning Yi.
These two are really starting to look like a young married couple.
After his temperature was taken, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they found that he did not have a fever.
"Don't worry about me, I'll just take some more cold medicine and then take a nap and I'll be completely better," Ji Yan comforted him.
