Chapter 1219: Ji Chuan and Nian Xi Have Gone Separate Ways in the End
“I look forward to having you back,” Ji Nuanyi smiled.
“Eh? Who’s surrounded by your family over there?” Xiao Si saw Jiang Yuning and asked the question.
“Jiang Yuning. I think he’s Nian Xi’s boyfriend now,” Luosang explained.
Hearing that, Xiao Si immediately glanced at Feng Ji Chuan and his family. They seemed to feel quite embarra.s.sed. They were chatting with the other guests, awkwardly, though.
“Her boyfriend ran into her ex. This is gonna be troublesome,” Xiao Si sighed, “Ji Chuan and Nian Xi have gone separate ways in the end. We grew up together. I always felt that the two of them would get married sooner or later. Well, from now on, it’s gonna be awkward for Feng Family and Nian Family to gather together.”
Luosang smiled but didn’t say a word.
“I’ll go say hi to Ji Chuan, in case he feels bad,” Xiao Si said, then walked toward Feng Family’s table together with Ji Nuanyi.
Feng Ji Chuan had seen. He stood up to greet him, and the two of them punched each other in the chest.
“I am finally seeing you in person. You’re with your girlfriend all day now,” said Feng Ji Cuan.
Xiao Si laughed, then said to Ji Nuanyi, “Let me introduce you two to each other. This is Feng Ji Chuan. He’s like a brother of mine. Him, Junting, and me, we grew up together.”
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Feng,” Ji Nuanyi and Feng Ji Chuan shook each other’s hands.
“Miss. Ji, you look so much prettier in person than on the screen. Xiao Si is lucky to have you.” Seeing the two standing side by side, Feng Ji Chuan honestly envied them. Before, Nian Junting and Xiao Si were always single. Now, both of them had lovers, and he himself no longer had Nian Xi.
Feeling his sadness, Xiao Si comforted him, “Don’t think too much about what’s gone. People always need to look ahead. Nian Xi has moved on, so should you.”
Feng Ji Chuan gave a bitter smile.
Xiao Si was the second person to tell him to move on today.
Beside them, Mrs. Feng said unhappily, “I’ve been telling him to go for blind dates since long ago. Last time, I introduced a great girl to him, but he refused to meet her. He insisted on waiting for Nian Xi to come back to him. What now? She has a boyfriend. Seriously, earlier, Nian Xi demanded Ji Chuan to leave the army and come back here. He did what she asked, but she broke up with him to be with someone else. It was her family who wanted her and Ji Chuan to get married, but before the wedding, she canceled it. We had handed out the invitations already. I am really disappointed in her.”
Mr. Feng was wearing a sullen face too. “Now she brought her new boyfriend here. Many on the scene know that she is Ji Chuan’s ex-fiance. But now… Eh, I feel so ashamed.”
Xiao Si furrowed his eyebrows. Feng Ji Chuan interrupted them, said, “Mom, Dad, stop. I’ve told you that I didn’t get married to Nian Xi because I did something wrong. It wasn’t her fault. I really didn’t care for her enough. I’m the reason why she broke up with me. She has really done a lot for me.”
“Now you’re speaking for her,” Mrs. Feng shook her head, said, “When you left the army, you had so many choices, yet you chose to become a police officer. Wasn’t that because of Nian Xi? I thought you’d get back together. After all, you work together. But in the end, things became like this. Forget it. Your father and I shouldn’t have come here at all.”
“Uncle, Aunty, don’t say that,” Xiao Si was aware that some elderly people tended to be narrow-minded sometimes, but still, he felt a little uncomfortable. “Feng Family and Nian Family have been friends for decades, after all,” he said, “Besides, Nian Xi spent years waiting for Ji Chuan. There must be a reason why they broke up in the end.”
