Chapter 444: Betrothal Gift
Chapter 444: Betrothal Gift
You can't live with the daughter of your enemy. You can imagine what will happen after a long time.
Therefore, it is better to make a decision when necessary.
This is also the reason why Zhou Jingyan acquiesced to Lu Shiyan getting close to Nan Sheng.
In this case, even though both had their own purposes, Lu Shiyan's purpose was easier to accept.
Zhou Jingyan would not tell Nan Sheng about this.
Because he knew clearly that Nan Sheng could not withstand any stimulation.
Before Zhou Jingyan came in, the doctor had already told him about Nan Sheng's condition.
Nan Sheng is now as fragile as a glass doll, and no one knows when it will completely break.
If it breaks, there will be no room for maneuver.
But Zhou Jingyan's thoughts are also hidden very well, and you can't get a glimpse into them.
Nan Sheng was very quiet because she couldn't refute Zhou Jingyan's words.
But she couldn't describe the feeling of tightness in her heart.
Almost instinctively, Nan Sheng felt that this matter was not that simple.
But Nan Sheng couldn't find any breakthrough in Zhou Jingyan's words.
Gradually, the ward became quieter and quieter.
During the process, the doctor came in to examine Nan Sheng, and she cooperated very well.
"Mr. Zhou..." After the doctor left, Nan Sheng looked at Zhou Jingyan.
Zhou Jingyan remained calm: "You can call me Big Brother like Lu did. Calling me Mr. Zhou is too distant."
After all, they are brother and sister, but they have the same mother and different fathers.
But this blood relationship cannot be changed.
Nan Sheng pursed her lips and didn't respond, still feeling a little uncomfortable.
Zhou Jingyan didn't take it to heart, probably because he knew Nan Sheng was not adapting well.
"Take it slow, you'll eventually get familiar with it." Zhou Jingyan said lightly.
When he looked at Nan Sheng again, Zhou Jingyan's eyes became much more serious.
"Nan Sheng." He called Nan Sheng's name, "Are you sure you want to be with Lu Shiyan?"
These words made Nan Sheng quiet down for a moment.
But before he could react, Zhou Jingyan's voice quickly continued: "If you don't want to, I will take you back to the capital. Lu Shiyan dare not and will not do anything to you."
After all, Nan Sheng is a member of the Zhou family, and the Zhou family is Nan Sheng's backer.
If Lu Shiyan wants to do anything to Nan Sheng, he has to consider the Zhou family behind Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng didn't answer immediately.
She was asking herself, did she really want to be with Lu Shiyan?
No, Nan Sheng knew the answer very well.
Everything that happened in the previous life made it impossible for Nan Sheng to be with Lu Shiyan without restraint.
That kind of panic and fear cannot be soothed no matter what.
And now she was forced to stay in Haicheng, not for any other reason, but because of Song Xiao.
She was afraid of what would happen if she followed Zhou Jingyan back to the capital.
Lu Shiyan didn't dare to go against the Zhou family, but he would vent his anger on Song Xiao.
Song Xiao is now in great danger without the protection of the Zhou family.
It would be easy for Lu Shiyan to kill Song Xiao.
So Nan Sheng didn't want to implicate Song Xiao, even though they had broken up now.
Nan Sheng still hoped that Song Xiao could get up instead of being affected by herself.
Her role in Haicheng is to restrain Lu Shiyan.
But this thought made Nan Sheng herself uncertain.
Because Lu Shiyan was too gentle now, so gentle that Nan Sheng felt a little dazed.
I really feel that Lu Shiyan is in love with me.
Even Nan Sheng was held in Lu Shiyan's palm and pampered to the utmost.
Nan Sheng felt that it was easy for people to lose themselves in such tenderness, and eventually it would be completely out of control.
Staying with Lu Shiyan is also dangerous.
Many things that happened in the previous life followed the original trajectory.
But the ending is completely different from the previous life.
Suddenly, Nan Sheng couldn't tell what was true or false, nor could she tell what was happening now.
Nan Sheng became extremely quiet.
"Nan Sheng?" Zhou Jingyan saw that Nan Sheng didn't say anything and called her name. "Don't worry, just say what you think."
Nan Sheng came back to her senses after hearing Zhou Jingyan's voice and gradually calmed down.
"I'd rather stay in Haicheng. I'm not used to the capital, whether it's the climate or the environment." Nan Sheng finished her words calmly, "Maybe one day, when I get used to it, I'll return to the capital."
"Yeah." Zhou Jingyan nodded without forcing it.
Zhou Jingyan expected Nan Sheng's choice and did not find it strange.
"I respect your decision. But even in Haicheng, you don't need to worry. As long as you don't want to, Lu Shiyan can't touch you." Zhou Jingyan gave Nan Sheng a guarantee.
"Thank you." Nan Sheng responded in a low voice.
Zhou Jingyan then stood up and told Nan Sheng, "Rest first. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or Lu."
As he spoke, Zhou Jingyan gave Nan Sheng He Chen's cell phone number.
"If you can't get in touch with him, call He Chen." Zhou Jingyan whispered.
"Okay." Nan Sheng didn't refuse.
Afterwards, Zhou Jingyan didn't stay in the ward for long. He got up and left.
Nan Sheng was still leaning quietly against the head of the bed, but the uneasiness weighing on her heart never went away.
This feeling made Nan Sheng feel more and more suffocated.
But Nan Sheng never showed it on the surface and was extremely quiet.
When Zhou Jingyan walked out of the ward, he saw Lu Shiyan standing outside.
Zhou Jingyan didn't say anything and walked straight towards the elevator entrance.
"Mr. Zhou." Lu Shiyan took the initiative to call Zhou Jingyan.
Zhou Jingyan stopped, but didn't look back. He waited quietly for Lu Shiyan to finish speaking.
"Nan Sheng and I will hold our wedding after the Spring Festival. According to Haicheng tradition, I will go to the Zhou family to propose marriage before the wedding." Lu Shiyan said calmly, "Nan Sheng and I have already discussed this, so I'll make a special trip to tell Mr. Zhou."
"So, you are informing me?" Zhou Jingyan turned around and looked at Lu Shiyan with sharp eyes.
Lu Shiyan didn't dodge: "It's not a notification, but to discuss with Mr. Zhou how to go about this customary process and what the Zhou family's requirements are."
Still calm, and even this calmness is sincere, without any joking elements.
This time, Zhou Jingyan laughed out loud: "You asked me what the Zhou family wants?"
"Yes. I am marrying Nan Sheng, so all customs are inevitable. I will comply with all the requirements of the Zhou family." Lu Shiyan's attitude was very correct.
It was so neat that Zhou Jingyan was a little uncomfortable with it.
Zhou Jingyan just looked at him, and Lu Shiyan did not avoid Zhou Jingyan's gaze.
"I told you, if Nan Sheng is willing, I won't stop her." Zhou Jingyan said coldly, "Since President Lu has mentioned the betrothal to me, I only have one sister, so naturally I can't just marry her off casually."
The tone was very calm, but it carried a great sense of oppression.
Lu Shiyan has also experienced many storms.
Even though he felt this pressure, Lu Shiyan did not change or dodge.
"The Zhou family is not short of money. The amount of Mr. Lu's betrothal gift is of little significance to the Zhou family." Zhou Jingyan said bluntly, "Since Mr. Lu is sincere, then he should give up his land in the capital as a betrothal gift for marrying Nan Sheng."
