Chapter 90 – Affection increases!
“Hehe, our Xiao Bing can cook well.”
“Try this shredded meat. See if it tastes good.”
“Hmmm…. It smells nice. It’s delicious.”
Dong Xuebing had forgotten about what he saw in the bedroom earlier. He was now focused on getting Qu Yunxuan’s affection. Aunt Xuan was so lonely to the extent she got to resort to doing ‘that’ to herself. But he cannot let other guys take advantage of her. He wants to capture her heart in the shortest time possible. So, Dong Xuebing did not let Qu Yunxuan wash the dishes after dinner. He washes all the dishes and scrubbed the kitchen clean. He hopes his performance today will add some points. Of course, Dong Xuebing knew this was not enough. He still needs to do more.
8 plus.
Dong Xuebing and Qu Yunxuan were in the living room, sending songs to each other’s iPhone 4.
Dong Xuebing tried to start a conversation: “What are you working late almost every day recently? Will you be back late tomorrow?”
“I will be off for tomorrow and the day after that.” Qu Yunxuan was still swiping her phone. She smiled: “Actually I did not work until very late today. I had left around 30 minutes later, but a leader in my newspaper agency wants to introduce his brother to me. He told me that his brother is still single and wants us to meet. I have to give my leader's face. So, I met up with his brother and had a short chat in a café nearby.”
Leader’s brother? Introduce to her? Damn!
Dong Xuebing felt threaten. He immediately asks. “How is that man?”
“Errr….. How do I put it?” Dong Xuebing had confessed to Qu Yunxuan twice and held her hands once. But he used BACK on both occasions. So, Qu Yunxuan still does not know Dong Xuebing likes her. If not, she will not talk to him about her blind date. “That man is alright. His looks, physique, career are all considered above average. But……” Qu Yunxuan shook her head. “He is not my type. Also, I do not want to date anyone for the time being.”
Dong Xuebing was relieved and asked: “Then what type of men do you like?”
Qu Yunxuan laughed and crossed her legs. “I also can’t tell you what type of men do I like. But he must be someone who is clean cut and meticulous. For example, he should buy me a bouquet of flowers when he finishes work. This will let me feel…… If possible, I also hope my boyfriend will be caring for me. Look.” She looked towards her handbag on the sofa. “My handbag was accidentally torn last week on the bus. I have been busy these few days and did not have the time to get a new handbag. My scarf was also slightly torn the other day when it was hooked onto the door lock. I can still use it, though. My handphone accessories too. My Chinese knot accessory is dirtied. No matter how I wash it, I can’t remove the stain. Haha, if there is someone who can give me a new handbag or a new scarf or handphone accessory, I will feel……. Warm. The items do not need to be expensive. It will just let me know that he cares for me. If someone really cares about me like this, I might……”
Might what? Dong Xuebing really wanted to know.
I am together with Aunt Xuan almost every day, and even I did not notice her handbag had a small tear. I didn’t even know that her scarf was torn. I didn’t even see her handphone accessory have a stain. Dong Xuebing looked at her handbag. He looked at it for a long time and finally found the tear. But the tear was too small. Even if he picked up the handbag and examine it, he might also not see it! He then looked at the Chinese knot handphone accessory. It was only a tiny black dot.
God damn! Aunt Xuan! How meticulous do you want your boyfriend to be?
Qu Yunxuan looked at the speechless expression on Dong Xuebing’s face, and she knocked his head. “Are you laughing at me in your heart?”
“Coughed. No, no.” Dong Xuebing laughed. “Meticulous man is good.”
“I know my expectations are a bit high. This type of man does not exist. This is also why I have not dated before. No matter how successful a man is, he is still not up to my expectations. Sigh…… Nevermind. Maybe one day, my dream man will appear before me suddenly.”
Dong Xuebing asked jealously: “If he suddenly appears, what will you do?”
“Haha, then I will grab hold to him and never let go.”
Dong Xuebing wanted to knock some sense into her. You said your expectations are not high, but your expectations are ridiculously high. Where can you find such a person in this world? You are just finding….. Eh? Wait! Wait a minute! Dong Xuebing opened his eyes wide and stood up. This type of man does exist. Why can't he exist?! Damn! I still have not used my BACK power today!
“BACK!”
……
The time was reversed!
Dong Xuebing eyes blurred, and the next moment, he could feel the soft cushion of the sofa. He was now sitting on the sofa.
Qu Yunxuan touched her hair and said: ““I also can’t tell you what type of men do I like. But……”
“Wait.” Dong Xuebing interrupted her. “What did I say just now?”
Qu Yunxuan looked at him weirdly. “You asked me what type of man I like. I can’t really tell you, but I like……”
This was the time before Aunt Xuan told him her expectations!
Dong Xuebing quickly stop her. “Nevermind. You don’t really need to tell me that. Errr…… I still have something on and need to go back.”
Qu Yunxuan blinked her eyes and replied. “Actually, there is not much to say anyway. I should not be able to meet the man I like in my whole lifetime. If I tell you my expectations, you will laugh at me. Haha. Ok. Rest early. You should be tired from work these few days.”
After leaving Qu Yunxuan’s house, Dong Xuebing did not return home immediately. He went downstairs and took a taxi to the nearest shopping mall. It was still 8 plus in the evenings, and the malls were not close. When Dong Xuebing returns, it was almost 9.20 pm. He was carrying a big plastic shopping bag, and he went to knock on Aunt Xuan’s door. Aunt Xuan had changed to her pajamas, and her hair and face were wet. She should be washing up and preparing to go to bed.
Qu Yunxuan opened the door and let him in. “Why are you not sleeping? What did you buy?”
“Aunt Xuan, come over here.” Dong Xuebing placed the shopping bag on the coffee table.
Qu Yunxuan walked over and asked: “What’s the matter?”
Dong Xuebing took out a handphone accessory from the bag. It was a Chinese knot. “I bought some things for you. See if you like it.”
Qu Yunxuan was stunned. “Handphone accessory? You saw the stain on my Chinese knot!?”
After Dong Xuebing passed the handphone accessory to her, he took out a light colored flowery print scarf. Qu Yunxuan was speechless as Dong Xuebing wrapped the scarf around her neck. Then, Dong Xuebing took out a black ladies handbag and placed it into the stunned Qu Yunxuan’s hands.
“Handbag? Handphone accessory? Scarf?” Qu Yunxuan did not know what to say. She had not told anyone about her bag being scratched and was torn. She will also try to cover it with her hands or scarf when she carries the bag. She was going to buy a new bag when she was free. She does not know how come Dong Xuebing was able to notice this small detail. Qu Yunxuan carried the bag and touched the scarf on her neck in silent.
Dong Xuebing asked. “Do you like the color?”
Qu Yunxuan paused for a while before replying: “Thank you, Xiao Bing. Thank you.”
Dong Xuebing smiled embarrassedly: “What’s there to thank? The total is less than 300 RMB.” Dong Xuebing was in a rush and did not have the time to choose the items.
“It’s not about the money. I did not expect this…… really…… I…… I really don’t know what to say.” Qu Yunxuan held Dong Xuebing’s arm and sat down with him on the sofa. “Ah…. I don’t feel tired anymore. Anyway, it’s my rest day tomorrow. Let’s…… watch a movie together.”
Based on Dong Xuebing’s understanding of Qu Yunxuan, he knows she is ecstatic now. If not, she will definitely not accompany him to watch movies.
Dong Xuebing brighten up! Success!
Aunt Xuan’s affection towards him should increase a lot!!!!
