Chapter 178
shi yan would pick up her mother’s call, but qu bocheng would not pick up any call from the shi family. he would not pick up his biological mother’s call either. it had been nine years since he had last called.
“How can I be the same as you? you were only ten years old then, while I was already seventeen and about to become an adult!”
in shi yan’s generation, qu boxiang was the most unruly and disobedient. he had been unruly since he was young. after shi yan left home, he was the only one who would leave home in a fit of anger.
of course, back then, qu boxiang was also extremely angry.
Including the fourth grandfather who died in his twenties, the Shi family had four families.
and the one who forced shi yan the most back then was actually the second branch.
Qu pocheng had previously said that Shi Yan’s father was his uncle, but that was not the case. His grandfather and Shi Yan’s grandfather were blood Brothers, while his father and Shi Yan’s father were cousins.
The Shi family had strict rules. One of the ancestral teachings was to not allow the younger generation to play outside. Even if something went wrong, the illegitimate children would never be recognized by the Shi family.
the shi family’s second son was of the same lineage. the second master only had one son, who was qu boxin’s father, and qu boxin’s parents only had one child.
the moment he left home, the second branch would have no one to take over.
Qu Boxin’s grandparents did not like people in the entertainment industry the most. After qu Boxin left home, he went into the entertainment industry.
In the past nine years, he had ignored anyone from the Shi family who had come to look for him except Shi Yan.
“i’m not going to argue with you about this. let’s talk about serious matters. I received a call from second aunt last night. She asked me to persuade you to go home.”
Her words successfully made qu pochen’s expression change. He looked at her and said, ” “So you came to find me because you received a call from my mom?”
His expression changed, but Shi Yan remained calm.”That’s not it.”
” i have two roommates who are your fans, ” she said with a faint smile. ” i found out a few days ago that you came to haicheng. at that time, meilian hadn’t agreed to be a casting consultant. she only agreed because she saw that my two roommates were your fans, so she was going to bring them to meet their idol. ”
” they also invited me at that time, and i didn’t refuse immediately. i just thought that if there were no other matters to delay, i should come with them to see you. ”
“That’s more like it!” Only then was qu Boyan satisfied.
“don’t try to persuade me. i’ve told you before that if you want me to go back, you can. i’ll come back whenever you do. If it was not for our second household forcing you, you would not be so cowardly.”
“second brother,” shi yan interrupted him.
“No one was actually at fault for what happened back then. Even my parents thought that the arrangement at home was beneficial to me, and it was true. it’s just that i don’t like it and i don’t want my life to be controlled by others, so my behavior is a bit extreme.”
“you are indeed extreme!”
“Why didn’t you wait a little longer?” qu Boye asked angrily. we’ll be back from school in a few hours. can’t we face it together when we’re back? You’re still so young, yet you’re already shouldering such a huge burden!”
“Or do you not believe us and think that we will force you like the others in the family?”
“naturally not.” shi yan smiled and shook her head.
“i just think i can handle it myself.”
She could indeed solve it herself.
since it was something she could solve herself, why should she drag others down?
it was a friday, and she was picked up from school by her family in advance on thursday afternoon. when she came back and learned of her family’s plans, she wanted to solve it immediately. It would be best to solve the problem before school ended on Friday and leave before her brothers returned home from school. That way, she would not drag anyone down.
Who would have thought that her second brother would also leave the house in self-blame and anger?
Shi Yan understood his temper. She had tried to persuade him once but he didn’t agree. She knew that he wouldn’t go back no matter what she tried to persuade him, so she didn’t try to persuade him again.
for so many years, although she had not contacted qu boyan, she had always paid attention to his news and knew that he was doing well.
This was why she had heard of song Meilian’s comic even though she didn’t read comics.
When she said that she knew someone in the industry who was likely to participate in a film adapted from the comic, she paid attention to this comic, and it was not a lie.
she wasn’t a fan of his, but she knew his every move better than any of his true fans.
ever since you were young, ” qu Boyan complained, ” have you ever thought that you can’t solve anything by yourself? ”
it seemed like there really wasn’t.
She had always felt that there was nothing she couldn’t solve.
however, shi yan didn’t answer him in this way. she just smiled.
this made qu boyan angry,”forget it, it’s not the first day i know you have this kind of personality!” give me your phone number!”
Shi Yan took out her cell phone and dialed his number.
The phone in qu Boyan’s hand immediately rang.
qu boyan,”yingluo.”
“so, you’ve been keeping my number all this time?” he glared at her.
Shi Yan wasn’t frightened by the look in his eyes. She remained calm and said with a smile, ” “Second brother, you know that my memory has always been very good. this is the number i used to contact you back then. you haven’t changed your number all these years.”
“then why didn’t you give me a call? nine years, you wretched girl, you’re truly cruel!”
Shi Yan didn’t answer him. She just smiled and took a sip of coffee. She took out her cell phone and looked at the time. it’s getting late. Second brother, you should go to work.
Qu Boyan took out his phone and saw that it was 1:45.
It was indeed time to go down.
“Let’s have dinner together after I’m done. Remember to answer my call!”
“i’m afraid i can’t do it today. i’ve made an appointment with my roommates to have lunch together in the afternoon,” shi yan said.
seeing that she was finally willing to make friends, qu poxiao was a little pleased. ” “Then let’s meet next time. Remember to pick up my call!”
“alright,” he said. shi yan smiled helplessly.
“didn’t you say that two of your roommates are my fans? The next time we meet, I’ll bring you two out-of-print autographed photos. You can give them to them.”
shi yan nodded in response.
qu boyan stood up and left, but after taking two steps, he turned back. ” “remember to answer my call. don’t disappear again!”
no, I’m going to finish my University in Haicheng. Second brother, you should get back to work.
After qu pocheng left, the person next door got up and walked towards Shi Yan.
he was dressed in a white shirt with his sleeves half rolled up. his face was clear and handsome, gentle and reserved.
“miss shi.”
When Shi Yan saw him, her eyes were full of joy and happiness.”Why is teacher Jiang here?”
“i have something to do.”
Yun Jian, who was following them, pouted.
what the hell? she obviously knew that shi yan was here and couldn’t help but follow him. she even called him over to accompany her. as a highly skilled doctor, he was not as free as he was. however, he didn’t have the courage to refuse the other party’s invitation to coffee.
Yun Jian walked over and complained in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face. She greeted him politely, ” “Miss Shi Yan,”
shi yan stood up and nodded with a smile.”doctor yun,”
” i have something to attend to, so i’ll take my leave first. if there’s a chance, i’ll ask miss shi yan out for a meal next time. ”
yun jian said and left.
He was very observant.
jiang che took shi yan’s bag in one hand and held her hand with the other. ” “do you still want to go and watch the audition downstairs?”
