Ye Chen's wedding was very grand, but it seemed more like a social gathering.
Among them, most of the invited guests were people with some reputation in Kyoto, except for those who often gathered with Ruan Jianglin, Jiang Yan didn't know any of them.
She wore a haute couture today, which was prepared by Ruan Jianglin in advance, probably because he was afraid that she would wear the wrong one on such an occasion.
The bride is very beautiful, and you can tell by her eyebrows that she's a woman with great ambition, completely different from the noble quality of Ye Chen.
She and Ruan Jianglin are of the same kind, accustomed to wandering in such gatherings, with every gesture exuding the elegance of a noble lady.
However, Jiang Yan didn't like her, perhaps because Miss Rong wasn't too fond of her either.
Two people who don't see eye-to-eye still have to pretend to be old friends and offer her most sincere blessings to the newlyweds.
Ruan Jianglin couldn't help but love watching her with a reluctant and resentful expression.
He sat in the VIP seat, with Mo Zibai and others in between.
This kid was probably scared by Ruan Jianglin last time, and this time he just greeted her without teasing her like usual.
The bride was busy and dizzy in her expensive white wedding dress, while the groom was very relaxed.
Sat down and started playing mobile games instead.
When it was time to go on stage, he was still playing games. Ruan Jiang kicked him gently and he finally came back to his senses, put away his phone, and slowly walked onto the stage.
She sat beside Ruan Jianglin, surprisingly quiet.
Because Jiangyan always thought that a wedding was a sacred temple.
It's clear that the bride is a bit nervous, and even when Ye Chen is expressionless reciting his vows, she almost moved herself to tears.
Ruan Jiang pulled the hand wrapped around her waist into his arms: "Not going up to grab it?"
He is holding flowers.
His eyebrows and eyes carried a playful smile, charming yet aloof, Jiang Yan had always been unable to see through him.
Ruan Jianglin always liked to tease her, she was like a kite, he controlled the string in his hand according to his mood, making her rise and fall at times.
She smiled and gently patted away the man's hand that was wrapped around her waist, mimicking his tone: "You're talking as if you want to marry me."
"It's not necessarily so, maybe if you try harder I'll really marry you." His pair of peach blossom eyes under the starry night light, with a hint of smile, seemed especially deep and emotional, making Jiang Yan almost believe him in the next second.
"Really?" she asked in a raised voice.
"Guess?"
Before they had finished speaking, the bride had already handed over her bouquet.
She didn't even have the chance to grab the bouquet.
At the dinner table, she didn't have much of an appetite, probably because her mind was preoccupied with sending off Gu Jiaming later.
Tonight, Ruan Jiang didn't even touch a drop of wine, just to see her off, he had promised in advance and must keep his word.
Ye Chen came to toast and said if he had changed his sex or not.
Mo Zi Bai chimed in from the side: "It's probably true, Beijing's Ruan Er Ye has quit drinking, it seems Jiang Mei Nu is managing him well."
This word is really beyond her reach.
Jiang Yan smiled and didn't say anything.
The words she said made even bystanders change their gaze towards her, as if she had really used some kind of fox charm magic.
Ruan Jiang is happy now and willing to give her some face, so he didn't say anything back.
Everyone just laughed it off and treated it as a joke.
Guessing the time, seeing that he was still chatting and laughing with Mo Zi Bai and the others, Jiang Yan reached out to grab Ruan Jiang Lin's clothes.
The dinner party had not yet ended when Ruan Jianglin took her and left early.
At this time, rush hour after work, directly congested to the outer ring.
Jiang Yan originally thought she wouldn't make it to see off Gu's family, so she even sent a text message to inform them.
Unexpectedly caught up in the end, stopped in front of the airport entrance.
Before getting off the car, Jiang Yan hastily gave the man a kiss on his face as a sign of gratitude.
The airport was not crowded at night, and Jiang Yan saw Gu Jiaming in the crowd at a glance. He was sitting on a chair with a large suitcase.
He sat there, head down, staring at his phone, unsure what he was looking at, his mood somewhat depressed.
Only Jiangyan came to see him off today.
He just saw Jiangyan come in, getting off a luxury car that was quite expensive.
Although it was too far away and I couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, there was a rough outline that didn't seem to be the "carrot" in Tang Man's mouth.
"How long until boarding?"
"It's almost time."
He just came to see him off, and there was nothing to say, but Jiang Yan looked at his worried face and asked, only to know that Deng Hui had sent him a message.
The general meaning is to ask him not to leave.
It can be seen that he hesitated for a moment.
But Gu Jiaming had always been a rational person, although he hesitated, he didn't waver in his decision to go abroad for further studies.
"Take good care of yourself! I'll bring you some California specialties when I come back next year!" He dragged his luggage and waved goodbye.
Jiang Yan laughed at him, saying what California specialty could only be said by Gu Jiaming.
Jiang Yan thought that next year would definitely be a year worth looking forward to, Tang Man would retire from the army, Gu Jiaming would return home, and Ruan Jianglin would still be by her side.
Jiang Yan didn't leave until he boarded the plane.
It seems like every time they part ways, she's involved, whether it's Tang Man or Gu Jiaming, she's always the one who sees them off.
The night view of Beicheng is not as prosperous as Kyoto, after entering the night, except for the high-rise buildings in the distance that are shining brightly, the rest is a vast expanse of darkness.
She pulled her coat tighter around her, lacking the festive spirit.
She was still wearing that haute couture inside, and it wasn't very convenient to walk around.
When she opened the car door, a strong smell of smoke rushed in, somewhat thick.
Ruan Jianglin only opened a crack in the car window, and the smell of smoke remained inside.
She had been following Ruan Jianglin for so long, but she still wasn't used to that smell of smoke.
She bent down and got in, waiting for him to finish that cigarette before starting the car.
His fingers occasionally rubbed against the steering wheel, making a slight knocking sound.
"An old friend?"
"Uh, Tang Man also knows."
He hadn't even asked how, and she had already made it clear in one sentence.
It doesn't really mean anything, just finding a topic to chat about casually.
"Jiang Yan, don't be so nervous, I'm not that petty a person." He glanced at Jiang Yan and said with a smile.
Jiang Yan didn't look at him, instead turning her head to gaze out the window at the night scene, a vast expanse of darkness that wasn't particularly worth looking at.
Actually, Ruan Jianglin's words made her unhappy when she heard them. She would rather he be a bit stingy.
Because of being carefree, one is magnanimous.
She didn't say a word, then slowly opened her mouth: "Teach you how to drive another day?"
She actually has a driver's license, it's just that she doesn't dare to drive much. After such a long time without practicing driving, she almost forgot how to do it.
When Ruan Jianglin mentioned it, she was not very willing.
She probably left a bad impression on Nanshan and shook her head.
"He snorted softly: 'As you wish.'"
She didn't want to learn, and he was even more unwilling to teach. He wasn't in a hurry like ducks on the shelf.
