Chapter 636 - 634 Discussing Matters
Ye Xinyan felt somewhat embarrassed as she glanced at Song Ping’s household and gave an imperceptible nod, indicating her understanding. She kept reminding herself that since things had come to this, she might as well accept it. She had always been a decisive person and in such matters, she should definitely maintain a positive and correct attitude.
Ye Xinyan sat in the reception room, originally a civilian dwelling, continually steeling herself mentally, and then heard Jiu Yu announce from outside, "Miss, Lord Jiang is here."
"Please invite his lordship in," Ye Xinyan said, hesitating for a moment before taking a couple of steps towards the entrance, unsure of where exactly she should receive him.
After all, she had worked with Jiang Yifan for several years, and previously, no matter where they met, she seemed to have never greeted him.
Jiang Yifan also had mixed feelings as he entered the room.
When he had formally expressed his intention to propose to Ye Xinyan again, it was with forced calm that he had spoken his piece. Although her reaction at the time had disappointed him, as days passed without her showing any unwillingness, his heart gradually settled.
Moreover, each time they met, he could tell that Ye Xinyan was unusually embarrassed when facing him.
He believed this to be the shyness Ye Xinyan was reluctant to reveal. Jiang Yifan couldn’t help feeling pleased internally; after three years of torment, he was finally about to fulfill his wish.
Although he frequently visited the Qi family and saw her often, he never again took the initiative to engage in casual conversation with her. One reason was to keep things relaxed between them, and another was his fear that, if he talked too much, it might give her the opportunity to reject him.
At that moment, hearing the consent from inside the house, Jiang Yifan took a deep breath, nodded solemnly at Jiu Yu, who lifted the cotton curtain, and stepped into the room.
