Chapter 17 She Disturbed Her Mind

Qin Wan felt that Jiang Lili's eyes were a little familiar.

Oh, the last time she was so determined was when she chose a major in her senior year.

At that time, she and Jiang Huaiyue both suggested that Jiang Lili choose a relaxing major. Jiang Lili almost said that she wanted to study law, and then she became a student of the Stanford Law Department.

She couldn't stop Jiang Lili from studying law back then, and today she couldn't stop her from going to work.

She just wanted to know why Jiang Lili made this decision suddenly.

"Lili," Qin Wan looked at Jiang Lili and asked without warning, "Is there something wrong with you and Jiayan?"

Jiang Lili's heart skipped a beat and subconsciously denied it—

"No! Mom, you're thinking too much."

Jiang Lili looked innocent, shook her head calmly, and smiled, as if she was simply and harmless as if she was absolutely not lying.

In fact, at this moment, her heart was beating a drum.

She didn't know why her mother asked this suddenly. She had tried her best to hide it. She could only pray that her mother would not find suspicious traces from some details.

Qin Wan didn't know why she suddenly asked this, but Jiang Lili's denial made her feel relieved.

She asked bluntly: "Then why did you suddenly want to go to work?"

"Mom," said Jiang Lili, "I stayed at home for a year after getting married to prepare for the legal professional qualification exam. I have passed the exam. Isn't it a waste of my job if I don't go to work?"

Qin Wan saw at a glance that Jiang Lili didn't say what she said: "Lili, don't escape the problem."

"Uh, okay." Jiang Lili pursed her lips and said embarrassedly, "Mom, actually... I want to realize my own value. I don't want to be a flower in the greenhouse. I want to be a person like you and your father."

Qin Wan was pleased by this rainbow fart that was not pretentious at all, and agreed: "I will discuss it with your father tonight."

"I knew you would agree!" Jiang Lili rushed to Qin Wan's arms excitedly, "Thank you, mom!" She knew that her mother liked Ye Jiayan very much, so she decided to "meet her preferences". "By the way, Jiayan is back with me, downstairs."

After getting married, Jiang Lili often comes back, and Ye Jiayan will come back with Jiang Lili every once in a while.

With this alone, Qin Wan was still very satisfied with Ye Jiayan's son-in-law.

While the mother and daughter were walking downstairs, Ye Jiayan and Jiang Huaiyue were having tea and chatting in the living room.

Jianghuaiyue was also a famous figure when she was young. She became a professor at the famous School of Political Science and Law of S University at a young age, and the classroom was always crowded with students attending the audience.

At that time, wherever Jianghuaiyue was, it was the focus.

But today, Qin Wan cannot deny that she was more attracted by Ye Jiayan.

Ye Jiayan has outstanding appearance, strong aura, and every move exudes charming temperament and demeanor. It is normal for Jiang Lili to fall in love with such a man.

Seeing Qin Wan going downstairs, Ye Jiayan stood up and called someone: "Mom."

Qin Wan smiled and signaled Ye Jiayan to sit down, saying, "Since you are back, will you go back after dinner?"

Jiang Lili was afraid of revealing the stuff, and was about to refuse, but when she heard Ye Jiayan say "Okay", she had to swallow the words that had already reached her mouth and cast a surprised look at Ye Jiayan-

He came to her house before, but he usually wouldn't stay for dinner.

He...is really a bit abnormal today.

She really wants to know what he is thinking!

"Lili."

"Li Li?"

Qin Wan shouted several times, but Jiang Lili didn't react until Qin Wan raised her tone slightly that she suddenly came to her senses.

"Mom asked you what you want to eat." Ye Jiayan repeated Qin Wan's words, "Let your aunt make it for you."

"I can do it!" Jiang Lili showed a pleasing smile at Qin Wan, "I'm not picky about food!"

Qin Wan thought for a while and said, "Then let my aunt make you your favorite steamed fish."

"Okay, thank you mom~"

Jiang Lili smiled very brightly. When she watched Qin Wan go to find her aunt, she let out a long sigh. Before she could lift her up the next breath, she met Ye Jiayan's gaze.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Ye Jiayan’s eyes seemed to be exploring that makes people feel cold on their backs…

Alas, after all, she was distracted just now, and he didn't seem to be surprised at all, just like... he knew what she was thinking.

This assumption is even more terrifying than a ghost story!

A cold current spread throughout Jiang Lili's body in an instant, and she secretly fought a cold war.

"Li Li, go to the study to help your father take Go down." Jiang Huaiyue interrupted Jiang Lili's thoughts, "I want to play chess with Jiayan."

Jiang Lili obediently went upstairs to get chess, while muttering in her heart: Ye Jiayan can still play Go?

...It seems that nothing he can't do.

However, her father is very good at Go, and Ye Jiayan may not be able to beat her father!

Although he knew his father's Go level, Ye Jiayan was a god-like figure, so Jiang Lili didn't dare to make a promise and watched curiously.

She watched her father play chess with many people. This was the first time she saw her father frowning during the game against others.

In the past, her father won with a smile.

Jiang Lili looked at Ye Jiayan. He was obviously not relaxed, and he held the chess piece hard, focusing all his attention on the chess game, which was more serious than signing a contract.

From this point of view, Ye Jiayan and her father are considered to be matches?

Ye Jiayan noticed Jiang Lili was looking at him, and turned his head and the eyes of the two people collided in the air.

His eyes were as deep and charming as the night sky covered with stars.

Jiang Lili blinked her eyes, and her heartbeat suddenly missed.

Her lips opened and said to Ye Jiayan with her mouth: "Come on!"

“…”

Ye Jiayan's Adam's apple rolled uncontrollably, his eyes becoming deeper.

Jiang Huaiyue saw the interaction between the young couple, coughed heavily, reminding him: "Jiayan, it's your turn."

Ye Jiayan hurriedly turned his attention back to the chessboard and made a "click" move.

Jiang Huaiyue looked at Ye Jiayan, smiled, and raised his hand to make the chess.

Ye Jiayan was stunned, as if someone who had been confused for a long time finally came to his senses and said, "Dad, you won."

"Yes." Jiang Huaiyue looked at Jiang Lili meaningfully, "Thank you, it's indeed my father's daughter." If Jiang Lili hadn't disturbed Ye Jiayan's mind, he wouldn't have won so easily.

"..." Jiang Lili looked confused, "Dad, why are you thanking me?"

Jiang Huaiyue didn't say anything, looked mysterious and left with a smile.

Jiang Lili had no choice but to turn her doubtful eyes to Ye Jiayan—

Ye Jiayan subconsciously avoided Jiang Lili's gaze, looked down at the chessboard, and said lightly: "I don't know either."

"Oh." Jiang Lili said, "Then I'm not curious!"

It’s normal for her to understand something that Ye Jiayan couldn’t even understand!
