Chapter 123 (1/2)
“Ye Qing Xin.” Yu Qing You calls her. She is calm and not emotional as before. “You think how far can you walk with him? Your life experience are different from each other. Your principle will also be different, even your worldview and values are all different……..”
“He is good for you now. But he just be infatuated with your young beautiful body. One day that kind of infatuation will be gone. That time he will realize that you are not good as what he imagined. That time he will dislike you. You are powerless and poor, he can abandon you as he pleases. At most he will give you some money.”
“That time you will be old yellow pearl. You’ve been played by old man, which man will be willing to marry you?”
Yu Qing You still wears her champagne dress. She looks so serious and stern. She acts like her words will come to be a reality someday.
Ye Qing Xin puts her phone away and looks at Yu Qing You calmly: “Are you done?”
Yu Qing You turns furious again when she notices that Ye Qing Xin doesn’t mind her words.
“Did you listen to my words?”
“I hear you. I also understand it.” Ye Qing Xin moves closer toward her, she smiles: “But I’m too shallow and simple- minded. I only think what is in front of me. I’ll think about the future later on. But I really want to thank you for your considerate advise.”
“Ye Qing Xin, you are simply stupid!”
“Yu Qing You, aren’t you the same like me? It’s not your dish but you are stubborn what to pick it and put it on your plate. Ms Yu, you need too be sincere and kind, you shouldn’t long for other people’s bowl.”
Jing Suo Suo chooses a complicated dress to wear so she is in fitting room for a long time. Finally she asks for the sales assistant to help her. The time she comes out, Ye Qing Xin is sitting on the sofa and having a coffee. Yu Qing You and her friend are gone.
“Yu Qing You Jie?”
Ye Qing Xin answers: “She has urgent matters to do. She is going home first. She asks me to say sorry to you.”
Honestly, Yu Qing You is so furious so she just changes her clothes and just leaves without any goodbye.
She really has great temper.
Jing Suo Suo is disappointed but she hides in quickly. She turns around in front of Ye Qing Xin: “What about this?”
Jing Suo Suo is wearing a light yellow short dress.
Ye Qing Xin nods. “It’s suitable for you.”
At five o’clock finally they are done.
“Xin Xin, thank you for today. Tonight let me treat you a dinner.” Jing Suo Suo throws her plastic bag on her car trunk.
Ye Qing Xin looks at the time: “I have matters to do tonight, you can go eat alone.”
“A? Where will you go? Let me send you.”
“No need. I will take taxi.” Ye Qing Xin just refuses and her phone rings.
She answers, it’s Jing Bo Yuan. “Are you home?”
Ye Qing Xin says honestly: “Not yet, I’m getting ready to go home now.”
“The address, I’ll pick you up.”
Ye Qing Xin gives the address, and Jing Bo Yuan says: “Wait for me, I’ll be there soon.”
Jing Suo Suo understands: “Tonight you will have date with Da Ge?”
Ye Qing Xin puts away her phone and nods.
“I really cannot stand two of you. Everyday you are so lovey-dovey. I’ll go home first. Let me save myself from being jealous.”
Ye Qing Xin returns to the department store.
Around ten minutes, her phone rings again.
“Xin Xin, come out.”
Ye Qing Xin come out and looks for his white land-rover.
Ye Qing Xin runs over and gets on the car.
Ye Qing Xin is sweaty.
Jing Bo Yuan passes her a blue handkerchief to her, “Why are you running so fast.”
Ye Qing Xin takes the handkerchief to wipe her sweaty forehead.
“Why are you getting off work so early today?” Jing Bo Yuan drives the car.
Jing Bo Yuan glances at her: “It’s not good that I’m getting off early?”
“Of course it’s quite good.” Ye Qing Xin smiles and tries to shift the conversation. “Where will we eat?”
Jing Bo Yuan: “Let’s go home first.”
Ye Qing Xin nods and doesn’t ask further.
They are going back to Nan Shan mansion. Jing Bo Yuan just stops the car in front of the house.
Ye Qing Xin unbuckles her seatbelt.
Jing Bo Yuan stops her: “Wait for me in the car.”
He gets off the car and takes two plastic bags from the trunk. She then goes to inside the house. Ye Qing Xin gets off the car to take a breath of fresh air.
After around fifteen minutes, Jing Bo Yuan comes out. Ye Qing Xin is shocked when she looks at him.
He is wearing a pink-fitted polo shirt, black jeans, and black sneakers. He looks the male model.
It’s the first time for Ye Qing Xin to see him in a short-sleeve polo shirt. It highlights his study and muscle figure. He still wears his watch.
Ye Qing Xin’s heart beats so fast. She watches him and feels that today Jing Bo Yuan is so different than his usual self.
“Is it good?” Jing Bo Yuan comes closer and raises her chin. His voice is hoarse and charming.
Ye Qing Xin looks at him with her blushing face. She nods.
“Do I look a bit younger?” Jing Bo Yuan continues to ask.
Ye Qing Xin blinks and suddenly understands what is different about him.
His clothes transform him to be younger.
Formerly he always wear suits, it’s probably because of his position as big boss. He needs to look serious and mature. He gives impression to other that he is not thirty years old man, but more like forty or fifty years old man.
This moment the bright color of his clothes makes him more lively and youthful. But his face is still serious. But with this cloth he looks like a twenty years man.
On the way to the restaurant, Ye Qing Xin cannot control her eyes. She keeps on peeking at him.
Jing Bo Yuan is already used to people’s gaze for him.
The car stops. Then he says “Get off.” Ye Qing Xin just realizes herself.
She hurriedly unbuckles her seatbelt and looks at the restaurant on the narrow alley. “Xi Fan.”
“This is….” Ye Qing Xin is confused and looks at Jing Bo Yuan.
Jing Bo Yuan replies calmly: “This my friend’s restaurant, let’s get in.”
They get inside, the waiter welcomes them warmly: “Mr Jing, you are here.”
The restaurant is designed in wooden style. The boss is forty years old woman.
Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan order several dishes. Then the boss comes over with her cat on her embrace.
“A Yuan, it’s been a long time since you come here. Today you are dressing well. You are young. You are not like previous self which is old.” That woman greets at Jing Bo Yuan, “This is your young girlfriend right, she is so beautiful.”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know how should she greet this woman, she just introduces herself first: “HI, my name is Ye Qing Xin.”
The woman smiles: “Yi Jian Qing Xin (fall in love)? You look beautiful and your name sound pretty too. No wonder Big boss Jing likes you. I am Wen Ren Xi, you call me Xi Jie (Sis Xi).”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and calls her: “Xi Jie.”
Wen Ren Xi strokes her cat on her embrace: “She is Xi Fan. Xi Fan, greet this beautiful Jie Jie (Sister).”
That cat is obedient and says “meow” like she greets Ye Qing Xin.
“She is Xi Fan?” She remembers the name of the restaurant. It’s called Xi Fan.
Wen Ren Xi smiles: “Em, this restaurant is named after her.”
Then Jing Bo Yuan says: “Tomorrow my Nai Nai’s birthday party, don’t forget to come over.”
Wen Ren Xi smiles: “It’s been a long time since I’m going out.”
Jing Bo Yuan drinks the tea: “My Er Shu (Second uncle) will come too.”
