She felt extremely lonely and lost. In this quiet night, her heart was filled with pain and anxiety. She was worried that her behavior would cause indelible harm to the other party, and she also felt regretful for her impulsiveness. She suffered from insomnia and endured this mental torment alone in the darkness.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the thin curtains, casting soft light. The room is extremely quiet, with only the slight sound of breathing and the occasional bird song breaking the tranquility.

Outside the window, the world seemed to be still asleep, the leaves swayed gently, as if enjoying the quiet time. The mountains in the distance were shrouded in a layer of light mist, looming, adding a bit of mysterious beauty.

There were only a few pedestrians on the street, and they spoke in low voices, fearing to break the beautiful tranquility. The whole city seemed to be immersed in a kind of tranquility and peace, making people feel an indescribable comfort and pleasure.

In this quiet morning, everything seems so beautiful and peaceful, allowing people's hearts to get a moment of relaxation and tranquility.

Shen Jingyan's eyes were bloodshot, and she came downstairs with a tired face. She saw Grandpa Jiang having breakfast, and the familiar figure made her heart surge with mixed emotions.

She walked slowly towards Grandpa Jiang, each step seemed to be carrying a heavy burden. When she reached Grandpa Jiang's side, she tried to force a smile and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Grandpa Jiang, good morning."

Grandpa Jiang raised his head and saw Shen Jingyan's slightly haggard face, and asked with concern: "Jingyan, why didn't you sleep well?" Shen Jingyan bit her lip lightly, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes. She didn't know how to explain her mood to Grandpa Jiang.

She sat down silently beside Grandpa Jiang, looking at the breakfast on the table, but she had no appetite. Her thoughts were still on the conversation with Jiang Wuque last night, and the sense of guilt in her heart became stronger and stronger...

Over the years, Grandpa Jiang's care and love for her were like warm sunshine, illuminating her life, and Jiang Wuque's meticulous care for her made her feel the happiness of being cared for.

However, in her heart, she always regarded Jiang Wuque as her brother, and she didn't want to destroy this precious friendship because of her feelings. But yesterday, when she cruelly rejected Jiang Wuque's love, she saw the pain and disappointment in his eyes.

This morning, she did not see Jiang Wuque, and the whole house seemed to be empty. Her heart was suddenly filled with loss and guilt, and that feeling surged into her heart like a tide, making it difficult for her to bear. She did not know how to face Jiang Wuque, nor did she know how to make up for the harm she had caused him. She only hoped that time could slowly heal all this, so that their relationship could return to the harmony and beauty it had before.

At this time, Jiang Xiyan walked down from upstairs slowly. He deliberately turned his face sideways the whole time, and when he looked at Shen Jingyan, his eyes were full of disdain and indifference.

His eyes seemed to be saying, "You, the person who hurt my brother, what qualifications do you have to be here?" Shen Jingyan felt Jiang Xiyan's gaze and her heart trembled. She knew that her situation in the Jiang family had become even more embarrassing.

She lowered her head, not daring to look Jiang Xiyan in the face, her heart full of self-blame and helplessness. She understood that her behavior not only hurt Jiang Wuque, but also made the Jiang family dissatisfied with her. She didn't know how to face Jiang Xiyan's hostility, let alone how to save it all...

"Xiyan, come and have breakfast!" Grandpa Jiang's kind voice sounded. Jiang Xiyan just snorted coldly and walked to the dining table reluctantly and sat down.

Shen Jingyan still lowered her head to eat. She didn't dare to look at Jiang Xiyan, fearing that looking at him would cause more unpleasantness. She could feel Jiang Xiyan's hostile eyes falling on her, but she could only endure it silently.

Her heart was filled with bitterness. The originally harmonious Jiang family became somewhat subtle because of her rejection. She didn't know how to break this awkward situation. She could only pray in her heart, hoping that time would slowly fade away all this...

Shen Jingyan tried to break the overly quiet atmosphere, so she said, "Grandpa, I just returned to China and need a job. Do you have any connections to introduce me to?"

Grandpa Jiang thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go work in your own company? Is Xi Yan hiring a secretary now?"

Jiang Xiyan raised his head, looked at Shen Jingyan coldly, and then rejected her mercilessly: "Grandpa, I can't make the decision."

When Grandpa Jiang heard Jiang Xiyan say this, he showed anger on his face: "Boy, you are the president of the company, why can't you make the decision?"

Shen Jingyan sat there awkwardly, not knowing what to say. She could feel Jiang Xiyan's dissatisfaction and rejection of her, and she felt more and more uncomfortable. Grandpa Jiang's anger also made her a little worried, wondering if this would affect her situation in the Jiang family...

Shen Jingyan realized that her casual words not only failed to ease the atmosphere, but made the situation even more awkward. She regretted it so much that she didn't think about it before speaking.

She secretly glanced at Jiang Xiyan, then looked at Grandpa Jiang, her heart full of helplessness and embarrassment. She felt as if she was trapped in an inescapable dilemma, and she didn't know how to get out of this embarrassing situation.

Shen Jingyan lowered her head and silently picked up the tableware, trying to hide her embarrassment. She felt that she seemed to be becoming more and more redundant in the Jiang family, and a sense of loss surged in her heart.

Grandpa Jiang looked at Shen Jingyan, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes, but he also knew that Jiang Xiyan's attitude made the situation very awkward. He sighed softly and said nothing more.

Jiang Xiyan still had an indifferent expression, as if he didn't care about anything in front of him. The whole table was filled with a dull atmosphere, which made people feel depressed.

After a while, Shen Jingyan hurriedly finished her breakfast, stood up, and said in a low voice: "Grandpa, I'll go back to my room first." After that, she turned and left, leaving behind silence.

Shen Jingyan returned to the room, closed the door, leaned against the door and slowly slid down to the ground. Her heart was full of melancholy and confusion, and she didn't know how to face these people from the Jiang family.

She sat in the room for a long time until she heard some noise outside. Then she got up and walked to the window, staring at the scenery outside in a daze.

As for Jiang Xiyan, although he rejected his grandfather's proposal, he was still unhappy. He didn't know why he had such great hostility towards Shen Jingyan, perhaps because she hurt his brother.

Grandpa Jiang sat in the living room, thinking about how to resolve this embarrassing situation and restore the harmony of the Jiang family...

As the days passed, Shen Jingyan felt more and more uncomfortable in the Jiang family. Since she rejected Jiang Wuque's love that day, she never saw him again. Her relationship with Jiang Xiyan became more tense. She tried to avoid meeting Jiang Xiyan, but every time they met, his cold eyes made her feel uneasy.

She started looking for job opportunities outside, but never found a suitable one. Jiang Xiyan still kept his distance from her, and people in the company also noticed the subtle relationship between them.

Shen Jingyan often felt lonely and helpless. She began to doubt whether her original decision was correct, and the guilt in her heart became stronger and stronger. She didn't know how long this life would last. She just hoped to find a breakthrough to change everything...

On that day, he wandered back to the Jiang family in a trance. Jiang Wuque, who had not been seen for a long time, finally appeared in front of him today.

Shen Jingyan walked slowly towards Jiang Wuque, her steps were a little heavy, as if every step was filled with endless thoughts. She came to Jiang Wuque's side and said softly, "Brother Wuque, are you okay?"

Jiang Wuque raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a bitter smile, his eyes revealed a trace of helplessness and determination, and said: "Since my love disgusts you, then I choose to withdraw from your world!"

When Shen Jingyan heard his words, a complex expression appeared on her face, which showed both relief and unspeakable loss. She pretended to be calm and said, "If you really think so, then I am very happy. What are your plans next?"

Jiang Wuque looked at her deeply and said in a low voice: "My feelings for you are not something I can forget in a short time. I plan to go abroad."

Shen Jingyan listened to his words quietly, and a wave of emotions surged in her heart. She looked at Jiang Wuque's back as he turned and left silently, and that back looked so lonely and so alone. His footsteps were a little heavy, as if every step was filled with endless attachment and reluctance.

Jiang Wuque embarked on a journey abroad, hoping to use time and distance to gradually ease the pain in his heart. He was alone in a foreign country, and every night he would think of every little bit of his past with Shen Jingyan. Those beautiful memories flooded into his mind like a tide, filling his heart with longing and pain.

Shen Jingyan looked at Jiang Wuque's departing back, feeling mixed emotions. She didn't know whether what she did was right or wrong, she just felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost something important. Days passed, and the Jiang family seemed to have returned to its former peace. But under that calm appearance, Shen Jingyan's heart could not let go. She often thought of Jiang Wuque, the time they had spent together, those laughter, those warm moments, all became indelible memories in her heart.

Perhaps, some people are destined to be just passers-by in life, and their stories will eventually become memories. Those memories may gradually become blurred with the passage of time, but they will always remain in their hearts and become a precious experience in their lives.

Shen Jingyan was busy looking for a job day after day. Every interview made her full of expectations, but also accompanied by a little disappointment. However, she did not give up and always persisted in looking for a job that suits her.

Finally, after countless efforts, she successfully got a job as the president's assistant. Although she had just returned to China and had no work experience, she believed that she could adapt to this job through hard work.
