MTL - Acting Like a Cannon Fodder is the Best Life-Chapter 2
This is the first time Ji Juechuan has looked at this person carefully.
In his impression, Yan Yan is a good-for-nothing young master who spends his days drinking and drinking, always has a lingering smell of perfume on his body, and likes to wear a bunch of accessories on his body.
Because he was worried that the car would be stained with an unpleasant smell of perfume, he deliberately drove a car that he didn't drive very often today, but he didn't smell the expected smell of perfume.
Taking a closer look now, I found that today's Yan Yan is quite different from the past.
Not only did he clean himself up, but he also had a faint scent of shower gel on his body. There were no accessories on his thin white neck and powdery ears, which was much more pleasing to the eye than before.
At this time, a pair of shallow eyes were looking at him nervously, and tentatively reached out to get back his mobile phone.
Ji Juechuan squinted his eyes and raised his phone a little higher.
"That's what I asked for my friend, you, don't get me wrong."
Yan Yan squeezed his fingers, trying to quibble, his clear eyes looked away, and his eyelashes trembled guiltily.
"Five minutes ago?" Ji Juechuan glanced at the posting time, then paused inexplicably, "What a coincidence."
He stopped embarrassing the blushing young master, returned the phone to him, stepped on the accelerator and drove back to the road.
Yan Yan took back his phone, but didn't dare to read the reply in the post, and shrank back into his seat like a quail.
He felt that the man must be angry. After all, the protagonist Gong had such a bad temper and was arrogant, so he would definitely not tolerate his behavior of secretly complaining about him.
Although he wanted to apologize, he didn't know how to say it, so he could only stare at his fingers silently, trying to reduce his sense of existence.
The two didn't speak any more, and when they were approaching Yan's house, Ji Juechuan spoke lightly, with no emotion in his voice:
"Not many people know about the engagement, so it's too late to cancel it now."
Yan Yan was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking to himself, and sat up straight again, his eyes sparkling.
"May I?"
"Yeah." Ji Juechuan looked ahead without any fluctuation.
After he was arranged for a marriage contract, he has always been indifferent. Anyway, he originally planned to live his whole life by himself. Being arranged for a marriage contract is just a matter of multiple marriage certificates. He doesn't care.
But since the young master of the Yan family doesn't like him now, it's better to cancel the engagement and save him a lot of trouble.
If the cancellation of the engagement was proposed by the Yan family, the old man should not have any objections.
"Okay, I'll tell my parents when I get back." The young master's mood brightened in an instant, and he grabbed his seat belt and nodded.
Ji Juechuan took a look in the rearview mirror. The young master still had one hand on his stomach, as if he was very hungry.
The line of his lips was straightened, and the car stopped in front of the gate of Yan's house: "Here we are."
Yan Yan unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car with his belongings, and did not forget to say "thank you".
Just as he turned around to leave, he opened the car door again, leaned half his body into the car, raised his eyes to look at Ji Juechuan, and said in a cautious and polite tone, "Do you want to come in and have a seat?"
"No."
Yan Yan originally only asked this question out of politeness, but he didn't expect him to agree, so he immediately said "oh", quickly closed the car door, and hurried into the gate.
Seeing the particularly conspicuous figure in the night because of his white body disappear behind the door, Ji Juechuan looked away, stepped on the accelerator and drove away from the door.
When Yan Yan went back, Mrs. Yan and a tall man were sitting at the dining table having dinner, and when they heard him coming back, they all looked over.
The two eyes made Yan Yan pause.
Since all the original owner's memories had not been fully recovered, the man's face was very strange to him. While putting the things he bought on the cabinet, he searched for the memory quickly in his mind, and finally remembered who this person was.
This person should be the original owner's elder brother Yan Yueluo, who was adopted by Mrs. Yan from the orphanage a few years after the original owner went missing.
Back then, because Mrs. Yan missed her lost children, she often went to the orphanage to deliver clothes and food to those children. One day, by chance, she saw Yan Yueluo hiding in the backyard.
At that time, Yan Yueluo was not as tall and straight as he is now. He was a thin and small one, and he didn't grab the things brought by Mrs. Yan like other children, but stood alone in the corner of the backyard, with no words in his mouth. He kept practicing a few lines of drama.
Mrs. Yan was attracted by him, and she went to talk to him after he finished his practice, and learned that he was abandoned by his parents on the side of the road not long after he was born, and was picked up by a homeless old man who used to sing operas when he was young. Yes, so I taught him a few words. Some time ago, the homeless old man died of illness, so he was sent to the orphanage.
Maybe it was because he was moved by Yan Yueluo's earnest practice, and seeing that he was about the same age as her own child, Mrs. Yan came to visit him for several days in a row, and decided to adopt Yan Yueluo home after a while, and found a professional The teacher came to teach him vocal music.
Yan Yueluo also lived up to Mrs. Yan's kindness. His talent was appreciated by his teacher, and the teacher recommended him to sign with a top entertainment company at that time. Soon he became popular because of his debut song.
He has gone smoothly in the entertainment industry, not only has he become a top player, he has even started his own entertainment company in recent years, so he no longer has to rely on Yan Jia.
Yan Yueluo didn't have many roles in the book, but his growth experience alone made Yan Yan, who was reading the book at the time, couldn't help but sigh.
There is no harm if there is no comparison. Compared with Yan Yueluo, he can be said to be a cannon fodder who can do everything. He is the number one prodigal, so it's no wonder he is not likable.
"Back?" Madam Yan put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Well, I'm back." Yan Yan withdrew his thoughts and responded obediently.
Since wearing here yesterday, Mrs. Yan has always treated him with such a cold attitude, just because of the various behaviors of the original owner after returning to Yan's house, not only made Yan's family lose face, but also disappointed Mrs. Yan.
Although it was her own flesh and blood, after all, she hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. After returning, the original owner turned into such a disappointing appearance, which wiped away the little affection and shame left in her heart.
The current relationship between the two can be said to be in jeopardy, so after Yan Yan passed through yesterday, Mrs. Yan has never shown a good face.
Yan Yan walked to the dining table, greeted Mrs. Yan, then turned to look at the silent man beside him, with a smile on his face, "Brother, good evening."
A hint of surprise flashed in Mrs. Yan's calm eyes. Although she noticed that Yan Yan was a little different from the past yesterday, she was still a little surprised to see how well-behaved Yan Yueluo was.
Not long ago, Yan Yan had been calling Yan Yueluo by his first name just because he was her adopted child. Even though Yan Yueluo had achieved quite a lot, Yan Yan still looked down on him.
Unexpectedly, not only did he not utter bad words today, but he obediently called his brother, which was a bit unexpected.
Yan Yueluo's beautiful peach blossom eyes bent towards him, as if responding, but there was no smile in his eyes.
He didn't take Yan Yan's change of attitude to heart, he just thought he was playing some trick again, and he didn't want to give him a single look.
The food on the table was plentiful, and the aroma kept piercing people's noses, Yan Yan's hunger became stronger, he hesitated for a moment, and sat down at the table.
Seeing him sitting down, the servant next to him quickly went to get a pair of bowls and chopsticks and put them in front of him.
Madam Yan frowned, she thought that Yan Yan and Ji Juechuan had already had dinner, and just as she was about to ask someone to take away the bowls and chopsticks, she saw Yan Yan picked up the chopsticks and picked up some vegetables.
The young master's eating movements were very gentle, but he didn't hesitate at all, his snow-white cheeks puffed up, and he took one bite after another, and soon the bowl of rice was full.
When Yan Yan was full, he realized that everyone at the table was looking at him. He stopped wiping his mouth, nervously wondering if he had eaten too much.
Speaking of which, they all thought he had dinner outside, and it was really strange that he could still eat so much now, but he didn't have dinner at all.
It's all the protagonist's fault, it's fine if he doesn't want to eat, and he is not allowed to go.
Cannon fodder has no human rights!
Thinking of the protagonist Gong, Yan Yan suddenly remembered that he was going to cancel the engagement. He was so busy eating just now that he almost forgot about it.
Although he was still excited because he could cancel the engagement in the car, he still didn't know whether Mrs. Yan would agree to his request, and he didn't know what to do.
But how do you know if you don't try?
Yan Yan pursed his lips, clenched his hands under the table to cheer himself up, and mustered up the courage to say, "Mom, I have something to tell you."
As soon as he finished speaking, not only Mrs. Yan, but also Yan Yueluo's eyes changed, and the gaze that fell on his face became a little colder.
In fact, after Yan Yan was taken back to Yan's house, he didn't do anything good. They subconsciously felt that Yan Yan had caused some trouble again, or that he was going to make some embarrassing demands.
Last time, Yan Yan said that he wanted to start his own business, so he took a large sum of money from his family, and asked Mrs. Yan and Yan Yueluo for a lot of money.
As expected, all the money was wasted. Not only was there no waste, but it also caused a lot of trouble. In the end, Yan Yueluo helped wipe his ass.
Under the guarded eyes of the two, Yan Yan swallowed, his long eyelashes drooping slightly, and stared at the table.
"I want to cancel the engagement with Ji Juechuan, is that okay?"
Both of them were taken aback for a moment, they didn't expect that what he was going to talk about turned out to be this matter.
The Ji family is one of the most wealthy families in City A, and Ji's eldest son is even more outstanding, and he has a career at a young age. When his peers were still spending their money on family money, he had already left the Ji family to start a business with his own ability, and his career was flourishing.
If it weren't for the fact that Ji Juechuan's father had received favor from the Yan family when he was young, and Ji Juechuan himself didn't care about his own marriage, it would be impossible for Yan Yan to make a marriage contract with Ji Juechuan.
Although Yan Yan's various behaviors after returning to the Yan family are chilling, but after all, he is the only biological child of the Yan family. They hope that Yan Yan and Ji Juechuan can settle down after they get married, and the most important thing is not to cause trouble for them.
And at the beginning, Yan Yan also happily agreed, he was vain by nature, so he had no reason to refuse this great opportunity that came from heaven.
So now he suddenly proposes to cancel the engagement, which is beyond everyone's expectation.
The expression on Madam Yan's face was like frost: "What's the reason?"
"I don't like him." Yan Yan raised his head to meet Mrs. Yan's cold gaze, and quickly looked away.
"Is it because of that child from the Shen family?" Mrs. Yan thought of something, her delicate eyebrows frowned slightly, "I told you, although Shen Yu usually hangs out with you, he is not the same kind of person as you. You are not suitable."
Shen Yu is someone the original owner liked before. He is two years older than the original owner, and he often hangs out with the original owner's group of cronies. He looks the same as them, but in fact he has already taken over the family business and is much more mature than them.
The original owner grew up in a small alley, and had never been in contact with a person like Shen Yu, so he was quickly fascinated and followed them all day long, but he didn't know that Shen Yu only regarded him as a joke.
Now that Mrs. Yan heard that Yan Yan was going to cancel the engagement, she immediately thought of Shen Yu, thinking that it was because of Shen Yu that he wanted to cancel the engagement with Ji Juechuan.
Yan Yan was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't remember who Shen Yu was.
Seeing his reaction, Mrs. Yan thought she had hit the mark, and her face darkened: "Don't mention the matter of breaking up the engagement in the future, it won't be good if it spreads to others, you know?"
After he nodded, Madam Yan didn't say anything more, left the restaurant and went back to her room.
Watching her back disappear from sight, Yan Yan lowered his brows and sat down at the dining table in frustration.
Although I didn't have much hope in the first place, it is still a bit frustrating to hear the rejection. It seems that the plot of marrying the protagonist Gong has to go.
Yan Yan sat downcastly for a while, and suddenly felt a gaze, raised his head, and met Yan Yueluo who was opposite him.
Yan Yueluo was a very popular star at a young age. He had been in the entertainment industry for many years, and he was more refined than human beings. Although he hated this useless younger brother, he never showed it on his face.
Yan Yan's back was chilled by those deep peach blossom eyes, and he stood up quickly.
"Brother, I'm going back to my room first, you eat slowly."
He ran upstairs in one breath, hid in his room, and sat down at the desk.
Taking out the phone, the interface still stays on the post he sent, and the title is still prominent.
He refreshed the post, and a lot of replies popped up at once.
Yan Yan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't control his fingers, and began to swipe down slowly.
[What should I do if I don’t like my marriage partner? 】
"It's not easy? Change your marriage partner."
"Why do you marry someone you don't like? Isn't this asking for guilt?"
"Don't stand and talk upstairs without pain in your back. Maybe it's a marriage arranged by your parents?"
"What age do you still engage in arranged marriages?"
Yan Yan quickly slid across the unhelpful floors above, turned to the back, and finally someone seriously started to give advice.
"Think of a way to make your marriage partner not like you too. After you reach a consensus, won't you be able to get a divorce?"
"I agree with the above, it's best to find a way to get the other party to propose a divorce, so that you don't feel wronged"
Yan Yan blinked slowly. In the book, it was indeed Ji Juechuan who proposed the divorce at the end, but at that time, the cannon fodder had already been married to him for more than a year.
In other words, if Ji Juechuan wanted to file for divorce, he would have to wait at least a year.
This is too long.
Yan Yan threw the phone aside, lay down on the table and started to be in a daze.
By the way, why did Ji Juechuan propose divorce in the book?
He thought for a second, then sat up straight suddenly.
How could he have forgotten that Ji Juechuan filed for divorce because he hated the original owner who always acted like a baby and wasted and drunk all day long.
And because of the kindness of the Yan family, after the divorce, Ji Juechuan gave cannon fodder a huge sum of money as compensation.
Yan Yan thought of the phrase "find a way to make your marriage partner not like you" in the post, and he had a flash of inspiration.
As long as he does what the original owner did again, and is even more extreme than the original owner, wouldn't Ji Juechuan be able to make Ji Juechuan hate him earlier?
Maybe it can make Ji Juechuan unbearable before marriage, and break off the engagement with him early!
At that time, not only will he not have to marry the protagonist Gong, but he will also get a huge sum of money from the protagonist Gong to compensate him, killing two birds with one stone.
Yan Yan began to make calculations in his heart.
