Chapter 228: Ye Jinghuai, Not Worth It for Me
Chapter 228
Gu Yan Sheng's face was very ugly.
Even in front of the camera, he was not able to conceal it very well.
But it seemed that everyone was not paying much attention to him now.
Even with his sensitive identity, being crushed by Ye Jinghuai to no end, there were few comments about Gu Yan Sheng on the bullet screen.
He was completely ignored, as if he did not exist.
The interview was over.
Ye Jinghuai succeeded in becoming a civil servant with the highest score in the exam and interview.
Gu Yan Sheng was admitted with the second highest composite score.
There were three other people as well.
The annual civil service exam for Qing City only had five spots.
So although it was fair and without high barriers,
The competition was still extremely fierce.
Ye Jinghuai left with Qin Jiang.
In the car.
Ye Jinghuai received a phone call.
Ye Jinghuai glanced at the caller ID and picked up, "Ms. An."
"I watched your live interview." An Nuan said directly.
"Did it meet Ms. An's satisfaction?" Ye Jinghuai smiled lightly.
"Aren't you afraid of being targeted?" An Nuan asked.
She was still surprised at Ye Jinghuai.
Logically.
Hadn't Ye Jinghuai been pretending to be useless all these years, so that people would not notice him, while waiting for the right opportunity?
She was very clear that Ye Jinghuai's opportunity was definitely not now, at least not for another three years.
For him to suddenly reveal his capabilities like this, what was he plotting again?
"It's worth it for Ms. An."
An Nuan was stunned for a moment.
Sometimes she really felt that Ye Jinghuai's words were like sweet nothings between a couple, nice to hear but not practical. Yet every time, she would still be moved by them.
Her heartbeat would miss a beat because of it.
She almost could not distinguish between what was real and what was fake in Ye Jinghuai's words to her.
"It's not worth it." An Nuan hung up the phone directly.
No matter whether Ye Jinghuai's words were true or false.
Her answer would always be the same.
In this lifetime, she would not unconditionally devote herself to anyone.
An Nuan put down her phone.
She silently adjusted her emotions, about to ask Luo Sijin to come over to arrange some work, when her phone rang again.
It was Xia Qiqi calling.
"An Nuan, I suddenly feel that you have great taste." She sounded very serious.
An Nuan laughed softly.
"I think you and Ye Jinghuai are good together. You really struck gold with him. People always say that a reformed rake is better than gold, I never believed it before. Why should men be allowed to reform and become better than gold? But now seeing Ye Jinghuai, I have to admit those old sayings make sense." Xia Qiqi was unusually solemn, "Look how outstanding Ye Jinghuai has become for your sake!"
As if making himself outstanding was torturing him?
An Nuan still could not fully accept Xia Qiqi's ideas. She said, "Ye Jinghuai becoming excellent has little to do with me."
It really had nothing to do with her.
Of course, if she did not know that Ye Jinghuai would one day become this way from her previous life, she might think so too.
But since she knew the whole truth, she certainly would not fool herself.
"Can you be more confident? Do you even know what a scumbag Ye Jinghuai used to be?"
"That was still Ye Jinghuai's own decision to change, he can't stay a scumbag forever."
"Why didn't he want to change before marrying you? Yet after marrying you, he changed from head to toe. Don't undermine yourself, I saw very clearly at your house that day, Ye Jinghuai's eyeballs were full of only you, he didn't even look straight at me!"
The reason he didn't look at you was because you provoked Xiao Nanchen.
There were some things An Nuan did not want to say too much.
She also could not figure out exactly what the relationship was between Ye Jinghuai and Xiao Nanchen. With Xia Qiqi's loose lips, if she found out even a hint, the whole North Wen Kingdom would probably know. She did not want to cause any right and wrong, she always felt that since Ye Jinghuai and Xiao Nanchen wanted to keep it secret, they must have had their reasons. After all, they had a cooperative relationship.
"Are you very free today?" An Nuan changed the topic.
She knew that once Xia Qiqi was interested in something, she could talk about it all day.
"Yeah, just waiting to get married." Her tone was clearly sarcastic.
"Xiao Nanchen is pretty good."
"Can you please not say such disgusting things to me?"
"Anyway you have to marry him, you might as well think positively of Xiao Nanchen, it'll make you feel better."
"No, I'd rather feel bad myself than let Xiao Nanchen feel good."
"That's cutting off your nose to spite your face."
"I like it."
"Yes yes, whatever the young miss likes." An Nuan was too lazy to say more.
At this juncture, anything she said to Xia Qiqi would just be a waste of breath.
"Oh right, earlier when I asked you to design the bride and groom's outfits for me? I don't need them anymore."
"Why?"
"Why would I dress myself up so nicely to marry Xiao Nanchen?!"
"So you're going back on your word to me?"
"I..."
"Back then you were just joking around and I remembered it all the way until now. I finally designed everything for you and even made the outfits already, and now you tell me you don't want them anymore. Are you trying to anger me to death?"
"Use them next time." Xia Qiqi quickly said, "I will definitely wear them next time I get married."
"There won't be a next time. Marrying Xiao Nanchen will be a lifetime commitment..."
"It won't be!" Xia Qiqi retorted, "One day, Xiao Nanchen will divorce me!"
"Then I won't design outfits for a divorced woman either, it'll lower my brand image."
"An Nuan you discriminate against divorced women."
"No, I just discriminate against you. When there's such a good Xiao Nanchen yet you don't want him, what are you thinking?!"
"Why do you always speak so well of Xiao Nanchen? An Nuan, can you tell me, are you really An Nuan? Tell me, are you not An Nuan anymore? Just like in those novels, some other woman has entered your body now..."
"Can you not be so stupid?!" An Nuan looked down on her very much.
In fact.
Her current situation was quite similar to transmigration into another body.
Except that her soul belonged to one person, just a different period of time.
"Then why have you changed so much?" Xia Qiqi really could not figure it out.
"Just recognized right from wrong."
Xia Qiqi clearly did not believe her.
But she had no guard against An Nuan.
So she did not think too much about it.
"The matters regarding the bridal gown and outfits, let's take it as settled. On your wedding day, you have to wear everything I designed for you." An Nuan's tone was very firm, leaving no room for compromise.
Xia Qiqi also did not want to let An Nuan down.
She reluctantly agreed.
Her reason was, "I can wear them. After all, Xiao Nanchen can't wear them anyway."
"Xia Qiqi!"
"Even if he wants to wear them, he can't. Xiao Nanchen is five centimeters taller than Nie Ziming. If he wears outfits that aren't the right size, it would look ridiculous!" Xia Qiqi's reasons were sufficient, "I know all the finished products are already out. You can't possibly remake them again, plus there's no time to redo them anyway."
