She Is From The Countryside

254 Chapter 254 meeting a handsome young man

the next day, shi yan went to and from school as usual. the incident last night did not affect her at all.

the teachers in the university weren’t strict in class, and their dormitory was located at the back of the class, so the teachers didn’t care much about them. shi yan was reading the same type of book as the class, and she was almost self-learning.

students like her were common in haicheng university, where almost all the top students were good at studying. the teachers didn’t care much about her. therefore, for shi yan, a month was more than enough for her to prepare for the exam while attending classes.

after lunch, she went back to the dormitory and read for half an hour before taking a break.

That afternoon, Shi Yan had four classes. After two elective classes, she was going to the last two elective classes. Just as she came out of the teaching building, she stopped.

“sister yan, sister yan.”

not far away stood a handsome teenager who was about 17 or 18 years old. when he saw shi yan, his eyes lit up. he was about to step forward, but he suddenly stopped, as if he was somewhat nervous.

song meilian and the others beside shi yan also stopped.

“Shi Yan, do you know someone?” Ren Kexin asked.

Shi Yan nodded and asked them to help her apply for leave. The few of them left first, and Shi Yan walked towards the handsome teenager standing not far away.

as he watched her approach, the young man’s eyes sparkled, but he seemed a little uneasy.

It was as if he was afraid that his appearance here would make Shi Yan unhappy.

A few seconds later, her eyes turned red again. sister ... Sister Yan, I teased you. Are you okay? ”

“i’m fine.”

“What are you doing here?” Shi Yan asked.

The young man in front of her was the youngest child of the Shi family, Shi Bochen. He was also the grandson of Shi Yan’s third grandfather. Shi Bochen’s grandmother and parents passed away in an accident at the same time when he was less than a year old. The third son of the Shi family, Shi Jinlei, and Shi Bochen were the only two left in the family.

as they were similar in age and the youngest two children in the family, shi bochen often followed shi yan around when she was young, even though shi yan was quiet and didn’t talk much.

It would have been better if Shi Yan had not opened her mouth. The moment she opened her mouth, Shi Bochen’s eyes turned redder and he seemed to be crying out of grievance.”Sister, how can you not even want me?”

you were gone for nine years, and you didn’t even call me. I ... I couldn’t find you no matter what. No one told me when I asked my family. With my family’s obstruction, I couldn’t find out where you were.

“sister, i missed you so much.”

shi yan’s hands and fingers curled up slightly, but he quickly released them.

“How old are you? why do you still like to cry?” Qing ya smiled.

“since you’re here, let’s find a place to sit down and talk,”

half an hour later, the two of them arrived at a coffee shop near the school.

“how did you know i was here?” Shi Yan stirred her coffee and asked the person opposite her.

the young man, who was stirring his coffee with a heavy heart, looked up at her and said honestly, ” “the day second aunt asked first aunt to call you, i accidentally heard it. After knowing that you’re in Sea city, it’ll be much easier for me to get someone to investigate.”

“sister yan, will you blame me for coming to you without telling you?”

“If I didn’t skip class, I wouldn’t.” shi yan said as she took a sip of coffee.

even the simple movements were exceptionally elegant when she did them.

After nine years, she still looked the same as before-elegant, reserved, and composed. Shi Bochen’s eyes turned red again.

I didn’t skip class, nor did I ask for leave. I know that if I did, you would be angry. I came through the proper channels.

“in the next three months, there will be a group of students from capital university and haicheng university who will go to each other’s schools for an exchange study. It’s just that the others will only arrive tomorrow, so I’m here a day earlier.”

although shi bochen was only seventeen, two years younger than shi yan, he was already in his third year of university.

she skipped grades in elementary, middle, and high school and was directly admitted to capital university.

“sister yan, i’ll be in the same school as you for the next three months. will you ... will you send me back?” His eyes were filled with hope and hope.

He was afraid that she would drive him back and hoped that she would agree to let him stay.

however, shi yan smiled and said,”since you’ve officially applied for a place to exchange pointers, why would i chase you back?” but you’re going to live here for three months. have you arranged your accommodation?”

shi bochen was delighted to hear shi yan’s words.

” my grandfather bought an apartment in haicheng. i’ll live in that apartment during the weekends and holidays, and i’ll stay at school. ”

“sister yan, the apartment my parents left behind is huge. we can even give you a study room. do you want to move in with us?”

“No, I won’t.”

shi yan smiled. ” i’ve promised old madam jiang that i’ll stay with the jiang family for a while. it’s not good to go back on my word. ”

since shi bochen could find out that she was at haicheng university and even confirmed that her schedule was accurate and that she was waiting for her in front of the teaching building, it was naturally impossible for him not to find out that she lived in the jiang family’s old house in haicheng.

However, he didn’t find out more. He only thought that Shi Yan was staying at the Jiang family’s old mansion because she was invited by old lady Jiang and was on good terms with Jiang Rui.

he had only found out about this last wednesday, and since then, he had planned to come to sea city to find her, so he had not looked into it again. shi yan and jiang che’s relationship had only been exposed last saturday.

Although he knew that the possibility of Shi Yan moving in with him was low, he still couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed when he heard her reject it with his own ears.

“Then, sister Yan, can Qianqian look for you?”

“what’s wrong? As long as you don’t skip class to find me, I’m fine with anything.”

The disappointment in Shi poxun’s eyes disappeared instantly, and his eyes became bright again, as if there were stars shining in them. he was no longer the four young masters of the shi family who were mature and youthful. he was just an ordinary youth.

“I promise I won’t skip classes or take leave. I’ll come to find you at normal times! sister, if you’re busy with other things, you don’t have to pay attention to me. it’s fine as long as you allow me to come and find you when you’re free, even if it’s just for a meal.”

shi yan’s gaze fell on his face for a few seconds and she nodded.”yes.”

“does anyone in yueyue’s family know that you’re in haicheng?” shi yan asked after a moment of silence.

“only my grandfather knows.”

she looked at shi yan and bit her lip. ” sister yan, my grandfather didn’t support the family’s decision back then, but he didn’t oppose it either. i didn’t know about it when i was in school. ”

“i’m sorry i couldn’t help you back then.”

Shi Yan’s hand, which was stirring the coffee, paused slightly. She smiled and said,”How old you were at that time has nothing to do with you.”

Shi Bochen bit his lip and looked at her. He remained silent for a long time, his eyes filled with guilt and self-blame.

Seeing him like this, Shi Yan didn’t want to continue on this topic, so she said, ” “I’m having dinner with a friend later, do you want to join me?”

shi bochen’s eyes lit up at first, but then the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.”Since sister has an appointment with a friend, it’s not appropriate for me to go with you. Let’s have a meal together next time when sister is free. i’m going to stay at haicheng university for three months anyway, so i have plenty of time.”

he couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. he was also surprised that shi yan was willing to make friends and even had a meal with her friends, even though he had already found out that shi yan and jiang rui were good friends before he came to haicheng.

since she was meeting jiang che alone, shi yan didn’t insist. she said, ” “Next time then.”
