She Is From The Countryside

this probably had something to do with shi yan’s previous counseling.

after thinking it through, he no longer had to worry about being recognized by others.

song meilian looked at ye chengcheng and calmly said, ” “We haven’t seen each other for almost ten years. It’s hard to believe that my cousin, who we didn’t see each other much when we were young, could still recognize me.”

they were only cousins, distant relatives who were separated by who knows how many layers.

It was a little similar to the main family and the side branches. Ye ning’s side was the main family, and ye Chengcheng’s side was the side branch. But in this generation, the main family had declined, and the side branches had grown.

ye ning’s family’s decline was only a matter of nearly ten years ago, and ten years ago, ye chengcheng’s family status was not as high as it was now. Ten years ago, the relationship between ye Chengcheng’s family and ye ning’s family was similar to that of su MI’s family and su MU’s family. Ye Chengcheng’s family had relied on ye ning’s family to develop.

when she was young, ye ning and ye chengcheng didn’t see each other often. they had only seen each other a few times, and the number of times they had met was even less than the number of times su mu had met ye ning.

The reason ye Chengcheng could recognize ye ning was that she knew that the only person Jing Xuan had given special treatment to over the years was the little girl ye ning, who had always followed Jing Xuan around when she was young and was not afraid of his cold face.

When she had met song Meilian in Zhu Long’s private room, ye Chengcheng had not recognized her at first sight. At most, she had thought that song Meilian looked familiar, just like Jing Hailan and the others.

She recognized song Meilian after she saw her get into Jing Xuan’s car.

“i didn’t even recognize you that night at zhuyan. You’ve changed a lot, ye ning.”

this was the truth.

when she was young, ye ning was an innocent, talkative, and funny person. she always followed jing xuan and chattered non-stop. jing xuan didn’t pay much attention to her, but she could still talk and laugh without getting tired of it.

the current ning ye didn’t like to laugh or talk. she was cold and indifferent.

If she hadn’t sat in Jing Xuan’s car that day, ye Chengcheng would have thought that they weren’t the same person, but just looked alike, even if she looked very similar to when she was young.

the difference in their personalities was too great.

“people always change when they grow up.” Song Meilian replied.

his emotions were completely clear.

ye chengcheng looked at her and felt that the environment and experiences could really change a person.

“where have you been all these years? how’s uncle?”

“in hang city. we were there for less than two years, and my dad couldn’t stand it anymore.” song meilian paused.

She was only twelve years old that year.

she was in an unfamiliar city, and she had no relatives by her side. she only had a female secretary who was deeply in love with her father in her early years. she was also the only person who did not leave her father after her mother and her lover ran away with money and her father suffered a stroke in a fit of anger.

After all, the other party owed a huge debt because of her father’s medical expenses for two years, and he had taken care of her for a few years after her father’s death. So even if the other party had deceived her into going to a Devil’s Den like the underground auction house, she had never thought of taking revenge after Jing Xuan had saved her from there.

however, they never contacted each other again.

That Devil’s Den was her hell, and also her new life.

If she hadn’t met Jing Xuan there, her life wouldn’t have been much better. Besides going to school, she would draw comics all day. This was the only way she could think of to make money at the age of twelve or thirteen.

The Secretary didn’t like her that much. After all, she was the child of her love rival.

it was still fine when her father was still alive, but after he passed away, the other party would either beat or scold her.

However, no matter how difficult those days were, she had never thought of committing suicide. She had always held a glimmer of hope in her heart, a hope that she could return to Haicheng and see her old friend again.

“Then who did you live with after that?” ye Chengcheng asked.

she’s the secretary who left haicheng with me and my dad after he had a stroke. ”

“so you’ve been living with that female secretary all these years?”

Song Meilian looked up at her and said, ” ” no, we’re not related. she’s already done her part by raising me until i was 16. we separated three years ago and haven’t contacted each other since. ”

“Then you’ve wasted these three years?”

Song Meilian interrupted her,”at least you have hands and legs, you won’t starve to death.” &Nbsp;

how she had spent the past three years was a matter between her and jing xuan. she didn’t want to tell anyone.

When ye Chengcheng heard this, she sighed. She had guessed that ye ning’s life had not been easy these years, but she had not expected it to be so difficult.

she looked at song meilian with mixed feelings and said,”Although your experience is very pitiful, ye ning, since you left, why did you come back? This place is already a sad place for you. You’re going to college here, so why did you have to come back to Haicheng?”

” haicheng is a sad place for me, but all my good memories are here too. ”

and Jing Xuan is here. I will come back eventually.

Her tone wasn’t tough, it was even very calm, but ye Chengcheng’s heart was stifled. She turned to song Meilian and asked, ” “did you know that the jing family has the intention to form a marriage alliance with the ye family?”

“not your ye family, but my ye family.”

I’ve been away from Haicheng and this circle for too long, so I’m not too sure.

she was very calm, surprising, but also not very surprising.

ye ning had changed a lot.

She was very calm and did not show her emotions on her face, making it impossible for others to guess her thoughts.

the Jing family has the intention to form a marriage alliance with the ye family. A few days ago, aunt Jing told me that she would hold an engagement ceremony for me and Jing Xuan in half a year at the latest.

“Ye ning, why did you come back? How good would it be if you didn’t come back? There’s no one around Jing Xuan. Even if he doesn’t have me in his heart, I can still stay by his side with the marriage in name.”

“He won’t agree to the marriage. Even if he doesn’t have anyone in his heart, he won’t agree to the marriage.” Song Meilian said directly.

” of course, i know that he won’t agree to the marriage so easily. i have my own ways of making him agree. i know that i’m not in his heart, so i don’t want to touch his bad luck. that’s why i’ve never gotten close to him all these years, even though i’ve always had him in my heart. ”

the ye family is going to have a big project soon, which is the result of my three years of hard work. Many people in Haicheng want to cooperate with the ye family, including the Jing family.

“jing xuan is the heir of the jing family. as long as i give him enough benefits, he has no reason not to cooperate with me. a contractual marriage is fine. as long as i can stay by his side, i can find a way to keep him.”

” but ye ning, you’re back. no matter how big the benefits are, he won’t agree to the marriage. ”

She looked at song Meilian, her eyes a little red,”why did you come back?”

song meilian’s eyes paused on her face for a few seconds, then said, ” I’m sorry, but if I don’t come back, I’m afraid I’ll have to live like a walking corpse for the rest of my life. I only have Jing Xuan.

song meilian didn’t know ye chengcheng very well as she didn’t have much contact with her when she was young. now that she knew of ye chengcheng’s thoughts and plans, song meilian’s feelings were a little complicated.

she pitied ye chengcheng, but that was all she could do.

She would not give in.
