Chapter 124: The First Day of Getting Back Together

Ji Xian sobered up completely.

Tonight, perhaps she was under the influence of alcohol, or perhaps she was affected by Wen Qi's sudden 'heroic rescue'; she inexplicably hugged and kissed him.

All the actions were done without thinking; they were all done subconsciously because I wanted to.

She didn't regret it, even though Shi Wan had told Wen Qi to pursue her for a while longer, because men only cherish what they have when it's hard to get.

One year and seven months after breaking up with Wen Qi, they reconciled and started dating again.

Ji Xuan was still a little dazed. After she came to her senses, a strong sense of excitement and surging emotions lingered in her heart, making her unable to sleep. She felt that she should share this news with others.

Unsurprisingly, the person sharing this with was Shi Wan.

Shi Wan has been working in Beijing recently, selecting and testing products for next month's live stream. Once she decides on the products, she will be able to discuss suitable collaborations with the merchants.

So I haven't been very busy lately. In fact, the day before yesterday afternoon, when she wasn't home, she sent over a bunch of snacks, saying they were samples and that I could eat as much as I wanted.

Ji Xuan: [Wen Qi and I are together now.]

The opening remarks were straightforward and direct, without any beating around the bush.

Shi Wan was applying a face mask when she saw this message. She immediately sat up and typed three question marks.

Then he sent a text message: 【Huh? So sudden? When did this happen?】

Ji Xuan: [About... half an hour ago?]

Shi Wan ripped off her face mask, quickly went to the bathroom to wash her face, and didn't even apply any skincare products. She returned to reply: "[Is it convenient... for a video call?]"

The moment I sent it, Ji Xuan's video appeared.

Seeing that no one was around, Shi Wan asked directly, "Isn't Wen Qi with you?"

"Just left."

What's going on between you two?

Ji Xian paused for a moment, then briefly explained what had happened to her.

Upon hearing this, Shi Wan angrily retorted, "It's like stabbing someone in the ass with a small knife. You've opened your eyes! Zheng Feilin thinks he can eat swan meat like a toad? The Zheng family's family values ​​are corrupt, but surely they can afford a mirror?"

"Look how far they've gone in investigating Zheng Feilin for tea poisoning! You should just slap him twice and make sure he's childless!"

Ji Xuan: "I did have this thought, but I can only say that Wen Qi's appearance was very timely."

"But you know what, Wen Qi is quite handsome. It's hard not to be moved by such a hero saving the beauty, right?" Shi Wan raised her eyebrows and sighed. "It's not your fault. Apart from being a straight man who is not romantic and has no sense of fun, Wen Qi is quite excellent in other aspects."

She added at the end, "However, it seems he is genuinely changing and wants your approval. Your decision to follow your heart is the right one. Ah-Xian, I support you."

Ji Xian chuckled and said slowly, "Maybe I was too stubborn before, and I was very inflexible in my thinking. Now that I know he has me in his heart, and only me, I'm still willing to take the gamble."

“That’s not stubbornness or obstinacy, it’s insecurity. In your previous relationship, Wen Qi was definitely the one with the problem, but that doesn’t mean you didn’t have any problems either. It’s just that his problems were bigger.”

"He makes you feel insecure, and you refuse to talk about it. This is how conflicts and estrangement accumulate over time, just waiting for a breakthrough to erupt."

Shi Wan patiently analyzed for her, "So, you need to let go of that relationship and start over, but don't forget to learn from its shortcomings, identify problems in time, and solve them. Only in this way can the two of you last."

Ji Xian listened silently, then suddenly raised an eyebrow and joked, "Wanwan, I think it's a real shame you're not a relationship coach."

"Right, should I do a live stream of emotional analysis another day?" Shi Wan pondered, touching her chin.

"Sure, I'll send you rockets later."

Shi Wan burst into laughter.

Then she said seriously, "Men are all susceptible to being coquettish. Don't keep everything bottled up like before. If you have any complaints or are happy, you can say it out loud."

Shi Wan has been extremely concerned about her love life, and has already shared all her knowledge with her.

Therefore, I cannot help her negotiate.

behave in a spoiled manner?

Ji Xian suddenly remembered the time the princess meowed at him, scratched at his trouser leg with her paws, and rolled over on her belly. She knew then that men seemed to be quite susceptible to this kind of thing.

This includes Wen Qi.

But... she doesn't know how to act cute, and even feels embarrassed and awkward about it.

She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Can I ask what the rules and standards are for acting cute? And under what circumstances is it appropriate to act cute?"

Shi Wan saw how serious she was, almost as if she was taking notes.

She sighed and said, "These things definitely depend on the situation. For example, when you want him to be with you, or when you want to buy something, or when you want to kiss, hug, or lift him up high."

"..."

Ji Xian remained silent for a moment.

As expected, she was not cut out for being good at acting cute.

She quickly passed on this item, but strengthening communication between them is still very necessary.

She needs to take action.

But she didn't know that her occasional subtle displays of coquetry always managed to drive Wen Qi to the brink of madness, leaving him unable to control himself.

Of course, this is a follow-up.

Shi Wan shouted with high spirits, "When you and Wen Qi get married, I must sit at the head table!"

Ji Xuan snapped out of his daze, "It's only just begun, and you're already thinking so far ahead."

"Hmph, this time if we don't think about the long term, we can sentence Wen Qi to death without even a suspended sentence."

Ji Xian chuckled and lay on his side on the soft pillow.

Also.

If this doesn't yield good results, then it really means they're not a good match.

There's no need to dwell on it any longer.

But she still holds onto hope for the outcome, which remains shrouded in mystery.

She felt they would be alright.

During their casual conversation, Ji Xuan suddenly remembered, "They're going on a picnic tomorrow afternoon, do you want to come along?"

"A picnic?" Shi Wan's eyes lit up. "Who's going?"

"Just a few of Wen Qi's closest friends."

“I’m not familiar with them, so it wouldn’t be appropriate to go directly there.” Shi Wan was a straightforward person who didn’t like beating around the bush. She said simply, “Why don’t you ask Wen Qi tomorrow? If it’s convenient for you, I’ll go. If not, then forget it.”

Ji Xuan thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

After hanging up the video call, Ji Xuan quickly went to sleep.

But for Wen Qi, this night was destined to be a sleepless one.

My body felt as excited as if I had been injected with adrenaline, and the emptiness, anxiety, and melancholy that had been lingering in my heart for more than a year had completely disappeared.

Even now, he still feels a sense of unreality, as if he's in a dream, and he's afraid that when he wakes up, it will all be gone.

She still doesn't belong to him.

He tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Several times he picked up his phone to text her to ask if she was asleep, but he would wake her up. After much restraint, he ultimately didn't send a single message.

I finally closed my eyes, exhausted, around 4:30, and woke up again before 7:00.

Because he was thinking about bringing Ji Xuan breakfast and taking her to work.

This should be the first day they got back together and started dating again!
