“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 a.s.sistant 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 pa.s.ses 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 s.h.i.+ft 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 s.h.i.+rt, 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 s.h.i.+rt. 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 hoa.r.s.e and charming.
Ye Qing Xin looks at him with her blus.h.i.+ng 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.”
Wen Ren Xi is startled and continues to smile: “This guy, you are good to poke on people’s heart.”
The waiter wants to serve the food, Wen Ren Xi stands up: “Okay, I’ll leave first. Enjoy the food. I’ll treat you guys this meal just regard it as my token of present to meet Xin Xin.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Thank you, Xi Jie.”
Wen Ren Xi looks at Ye Qing Xin and smiles: “Your little mouth is really sweet.”
The dishes come out one by one.
After the dinner, the sky is dark. Jing Bo Yuan and Ye Qing Xin gets on the car.
Ye Qing Xin thinks about Dou Weir and speaks up: “Bo Yuan, let’s go to the hospital first before we go home. I want to visit Weir.”
Jing Bo Yuan directly declines her: “We still have thing to do, let’s go tomorrow.”
Ye Qing Xin is startled: “What will we do?”
Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t answer him and just drives.
After a while, the car stops in a parking lot.
Ye Qing Xin looks around, it’s department store that Jing Suo Suo and Yu Qing You visited next time.
Could it be he want to buy party dress for her?
It turns out he doesn’t forget about it.
She thinks about it and smiles, she unbuckles her seatbelt and gets off the car.
Jing Bo Yuan locks the car and puts his car key on his pocket. He extends his right hand to her. Ye Qing Xin is startled and smiles. She then holds his hand.
Jing Bo Yuan takes her to the elevator and presses not the third floor of the clothing department. He presses fifth floor b.u.t.ton to the cinema.
Ye Qing Xin is surprised, “We are going …. to watch movie?”
She always thinks that going to the cinema and watching movie are young people’s activity. Jing Bo Yuan is older, he will not like it.
Ye Qing Xin looks at him and feels something sweet in her heart.
She is just an ordinary woman. Every woman probably thinks about going to cinema with her loved one.
She thought with Jing Bo Yuan’s status and position, he will not like to do childish activity such as watching movie.
She is very sensible so she doesn’t ask him for it.
She doesn’t know why today Jing Bo Yuan takes initiative to take her to the movie.
They arrive at the ticketing hall. Probably because now it’s summer holiday so there’s a lot of people in the cinema, majority is high school students.
Jing Bo Yuan takes Ye Qing Xin queue, just like an ordinary couple.
But he still looks imposing, not few people turn around to look at them.
He keeps on holding her hand.
Jing Bo Yuan lowers his head and looks at her. He asks her gently, “What is it?”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “I’m thinking my boyfriend is this excellent, what about if he is s.n.a.t.c.hed away by someone else? Will I cry to death?”
Jing Bo Yuan raises her face and says to her: “Then you need to watch over your boyfriend cautiously.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “I don’t want to watch. If he can be s.n.a.t.c.hed away, then I will just turn my head around to look for a new one.”
Jing Bo Yuan clutches her hand tightly: “You are not taking it to heart.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “If it’s not mine, why should I try hard to hold on to it.”
After fifteen minutes finally it’s their turn.
The sales ticketing is a twenty years old young girl. The time she is talking with Jing Bo Yuan, her face is blus.h.i.+ng red. She doesn’t dare to look at him at the eyes: “Excuse me, what movie do you want to watch?”
Jing Bo Yuan looks at Ye Qing Xin: “What do you want to watch?”
Ye Qing Xin looks at the screen and chooses a dark fantasy movie that will start in ten minutes.
They choose the seat, pay the ticket. Then Ye Qing Xin just be taken to the theater hall. He then let her go, he says: “Wait for me.” Then he goes to snack bar.
Ye Qing Xin stands there and waits for him. He buys a big bucket of popcorn and two fresh juice. He gives the change to the waiter.
Jing Bo Yuan brings it over. Ye Qing Xin feels that they are really dating, she is daring an ordinary man and not the usual big boss.
They take the 3D gla.s.ses in front of the theater hall. Jing Bo Yuan holds her hand to get inside. When they are inside, they notice a lot of couples are already inside the theater.
Jing Bo Yuan holds Ye Qing Xin and finds their seat. They sit down.
Under the dimming light of the theater, Ye Qing Xin notices a intense glare from someone. She turns her head and recognize two people on the right backseat from them. They are Chen Shun An and Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+.
For courtesy, Ye Qing Xin smiles toward Chen Shu An and turns her head to the front.
Jing Bo Yuan notices her gaze and looks over too. He recognizes Chen Shu An and nods at him.
Chen Shu An doesn’t know why but he feels so cold when he looks at Jby.
Last time when he was drunk because of him, he returned home and slept for two days.
Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ looks at Ye Qing Xin’s back figure and says softly: “No wonder Xin Xin never dated before, it turns out she likes a man like Jing Bo Yuan. She has a high taste.”
The light is off. The movie starts.
Chen Shu An keeps on watching Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan, he seems to not hear Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+’s words.
Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ notices it and says: “But I hear that Jing Bo Yuan is already thirty four years old man, Xin Xin is just twenty years old. I also don’t know whether Jing Bo Yuan really likes Xin Xin, or…..”
She haven’t finished her words but everyone can understand her hidden meaning.
Chen Shu An keeps on being silent.
“Now a rich boss always loves to spend money to have a mistress. When he is done, he will throw the woman away. I am really worried for Xin Xin….”
Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ looks worried. But she doesn’t sincerely worry about her. She is signaling that Ye Qing Xin is just a toy for rich man.
That kind of woman always be condemned.
Chen Shu An starts to react and looks at Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+: “Since you are worried about her if not let me be her fallback guy. Wait until she is dumped, then I will pick her up, that way will you be satisfied?”
Tai s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+’s face turns sour: “Shu An, I’m just worried about her…”
Chen Shu An turns his head and looks at her. He says coldly: “Just take care of your own business.”
The movie starts.
It’s a dark fantasy ancient romantic movie. It tells about a beautiful female demon that falls in love with a married man.
Ye Qing Xin likes this kind of movie. At the beginning, she starts to enjoy her popcorn and juice. She enjoys the movie.
But gradually she notices something wrong.
She takes off her 3D gla.s.s and looks in front. Her face blushes.
In front of them, there’s a couple of young people. They are kissing, she even could hear their kissing sound.
Ye Qing Xin peeks at Jing Bo Yuan. She notices that he doesn’t wear his 3D gla.s.s. He also looks at that young couple. She notices the frown on his face.
Ye Qing Xin feels that maybe he will stand up to scold that young couple so she moves closer to his ear and says: “Young people are sensible. Don’t mind it, just act like you don’t see it.”
Jing Bo Yuan looks at her.
Ye Qing Xin feels tense: “Wh, why?”
Next moment.
Jing Bo Yuan’s cold lips covers her lips. He sucks her lips lightly.
Ye Qing Xin is startled, her bucket of popcorn falls down. Unconsciously she starts to push him. Like him, she doesn’t like public affection.
Jing Bo Yuan holds her head and doesn’t let her to run away.
They kiss for a long time.
Ye Qing Xin’s heart beats erratically. She feels that someone is watching them. Her face is scorching hot and red.
Jing Bo Yuan let her go and says to her ear hoa.r.s.ely: “I am also young and insensible.”
Ye Qing Xin: “………”
