Chapter 453
The next day Jing Fen Fen wakes up with dark circles under her eyes. She couldn’t hide it with the make up. She looks at her tired self from the mirror.
For the whole night, she keeps on having dream.
It’s that Lu You Yuan’s mistake!
She recalls what happened in her dream, she couldn’t help but to blush. She is old yet it’s the first time she dreams about this shameful dream.
She tidies up herself and freshens up.
The time she comes out fo her bedroom. She could hear Old Madame Jing’s bright voice. Old Mister Jing was sick recently and hospitalized. Yesterday he was discharged so Old Madame Jing is happy for it. Jing Fen Fen could understand her feeling.
It’s just the time she is downstair, she notices a familiar face. Lu You Yuan is sitting down there.
Lu You Yuan is dissuading Old Madame Jing like an obedient grandson: “Nai Nai, don’t laugh anymore. You would hurt yourself becasue of me?”
“You kid, how could you have that crazy thought about it?’ Old Madame Jing just stops laughing and looks at Jing Fen Fen. He waves at her.
Old Madame Jing waves her to come over: “You Yuan is here to pick you up, he is going to send you off to work. Hurry up finish your breakfast. Don’t be late.”
Jing Fen Fen feels awkward to meet Lu YouYuan this morning, but she doesn’t show it on her face.
“I have my own car, I could drive my own.” She doesn’t want t be alone with Lu You Yuan, she is afraid that it’ll be too awkward.
“Your car has traffic restriction today, you shouldn’t drive it.” Old Madame JIng smiles. “You Yuan is here. How could you have hear to let him make a fruitless trip? Moreover you guys would get marry soon. How could you be embarra.s.sed? Hurry up and eat.”
Jing Fen Fen: “…….”
On the way to the work, Jing Fen Fen sits on the front pa.s.senger and says nothing. The atmosphere in the car turns strange.
The time her hand is held, she is surprised.
“What are you doing?” She glares at him.
The traffic light turns red and the car stops. Lu You Yuan turns his head to look at her: “You shouldn’t respond this way. You told me that you want to live well for that man to see. If he is here, then he could see something is wrong between us.”
Jing Fen Fen just looks at him and says nothing.
“you should get use to it. So when you are on the spot, you would not let slip a secret. Don’t you think so?” Lu You Yuan holds his hand again.
Jing Fen Fen just lets him be.
Looking at how she just let him be, he smiles.
The time they arrive in front of Jing Fen Fen’s office, he just lets her go. “At night I’ll pick you up.”
“Actually you don’t need to do this. We just collaborating.” Jing Fen Fen feels that Lu You Yuan is like her fiancé right now. It’s overstepping her antic.i.p.ation.
Lu You Yuan laughs lightly: “If I don’t perform well, I’m afraid you would change me.”
Jing Fen Fen rolls her eyes and gets off the car. After she disappears in front of his sight, Lu You Yuan’s smile just vanishes.
——-
For the whole day Dou Weir is at home. He Ji Fan bought a lot of things for her, she uses a long time to tidy it up.
The time her manager calls her, she just places the last shoes on the shoe racks.
“What is it?’
“LOBB’s fas.h.i.+on at Shang Hai would start soon. The person-in-charge called me and asked whether you are interested to join. You said that last time you enjoyed working with them….”
Dou Weir is helpless: “You have agreed?” If not, her manager would definitely refuse it for her. She has said, for the holiday, she wouldn’t accept any job. Previously her manager had accepted few great advertis.e.m.e.nts, which are too good to be missed, and she called her.
Of course, LOBB’s high fas.h.i.+on show is too precious to be missed.
The manager laughs diffidently: “I’m thinking for you? LOBB’s fas.h.i.+on show is a great chance for model. If I don’t take it, wouldn’t t mean that I let down of G.o.d’s kindness?”
LOBB is a high fas.h.i.+on line clothing for s.e.xy coldly elegant woman. It suits Dou Weir’s image.
Dou Weir has no reason to refuse: “When would it be?”
This month on the 15th, but she needs to be ready for the rehearsal. She needs to go to Shang Hai on the 7th. So she would return back around the 16th.
“I get it.”
“Then it means you agree to take this?”
Dou Weir smiles: “Can I refuse it now?”
“of course not, now I will go to arrange it. Let’s go to Shang Hai tree days later.”
Dou Weir cooks a simple bowl of noodle and eats few bites of it. Then she goes to the hospital.
The time she is driving, she gets a call from He Ji Fan. “I’ll pick you up now, later on let’s eat together.”
Dou Weir: “I’ve eaten, now I’m on my way to the hospital to accompany Nai Nai.”
He Ji Fan sounds a bit disappointed: “Then now I’ll go over to the hospital to find you. I want to take you to somewhere good.”
He Ji Fan just hangs up before Dou Weir refuses.
After his call, Dou Weir gets another call from Old Madame Dou: “Weir, do you remember that tonight you will go and meet Wu Zhu Ren’s son? Don’t let him wait for a long time, it’s too impolite.”
Dou Weir: “……..” She really forgets about it.
“I’ve met him today. He is quite good, he is a doctor. He is studying PhD. He has a good prospect. You ah need to chat with him. He is kind. He also has a good mother, you would not suffer in the future.”
Dou Weir has a headache now: “I’ll go over now.”
She calls He Ji Fan: “I have business to do, I’ll not go to the hospital. Don’t find me. Tomorrow I have time so let’s have dinner tomorrow.”
He Ji Fan doesn’t force her, the time he is getting ready to make a turn to go back home. He gets a call from Yu Geng Xin asking him to have a drink.
Dou Weir goes to the appointed restaurant. Wu Zhu Ren’s son, Wu Kang, is there. It’s clear that he is well-prepared for this meeting. He is dressed so neatly.
Looking at Dou Weir, he just stands up. He is a shy person. He isn’t used to interact with woman. Dou Weir is too beautiful and s.e.xy woman, it makes him to be at a loss.
“Dou, Dou Xiao Jie (Ms Dou), you are here….”
Dou Weir smiles: “You could call me Weir. I’m sorry to be late, I encountered a bit of traffic.”
“No, no it’s okay. I just arrived too.” Wu Kang waves his hand quickly. He realizes that his response is too much. He just sits down overcautiously. “I just ordered several dishes. I don’t know what do you lik to eat. You could take a look at the menu.
He calls the waiter for the menu.
Dou Weir doesn’t decline, she just orders two more dishes.
“I heard Dou .. Weir is working at a state owned enterprise, what is the name of the enterprise? I have several friends working there too, maybe you know some of my friends?” The atmosphere is too awkward, Wu Kang is looking for topic to talk about.
Dou Weir doesn’t answer his question, but she says: “This period of time, thank you for Wu Zhu Ren’s care for my Nai Nai. Actually my Nai Nai doesn’t know that I have a boyfriend. We just started our relations.h.i.+p so I don’t tell her. I hope you could understand my intention. I’m sorry.”
Wu Kang’s eyes just turn dim: “It’s okay, I understand.”
Dou Weir says: “We could be friend. Wu Da Ge, wouldn’t mind to be my friend right?”
For Nai Nai’s illness, she needs Wu Zhu Ren’s help. Dou Weir doesn’t want to offend Wu Zhu Ren.
Wu Kang’s eyes turn bright again: “Of course not. I’m so honored to be your friend.”
Wu Kang is too focused on his study and experiments. He has limited knowledge about the outside world or modeling world. So it’s normal if he doesn’t know about Dou Weir.
Dou Weir: “For my matter, my Nai Nai doesn’t know about it so…”
“I’ll help you to keep it a secret.” Wu Kang is very understanding. “I’ll talk to my Ma too.”
Dou Weir smiles: “Thank you.”
The atmosphere turns more relaxing.
The time they are out of the private dining room, they b.u.mp into He Ji Fan and Yu Geng Xin.
Dou Weir is startled, she doesn’t expect to meet him here.
He Ji Fan is startled too, he notices Wu Kang. So this what Dou Weir means by business?
At first Yu Geng Xin wanted to take He Ji Fan to the bar, but He Ji Fan hasn’t eaten anything so they both go to the restaurant.
“Who are you?” He Ji Fan narrows his eyes, he is a bit cold.
“Hi, I’m Wu Kang, Weir’s friend.” Wu Kang notices that Dou Weir and this man seem to know each other. He even feels a bit afraid of this man’s gaze so he introduces his name and also extends his hand for a handshake.
He doesn’t want to embarra.s.s Dou Weir and make himself embarra.s.sed.
He Ji Fan just looks at Wu Kang’s hand doesn’t want to shake it. He looks at Dou Weir.
Weir?
“Who is he?” He Ji Fan asks once more.
Wu Kang frowns and feels so unhappy. He retrieves his hand. He feels that this man is so impolite.
He thinks about it and then he moves over to block Dou Weir from He Ji Fan. “This man, I don’t care who you are, but I already told you that I am Weir’s friend. It’s too impolite to keep on asking.”
He Ji Fan pushes Wu Kang away and holds Dou Weir’s wrist. He pulls her over. “I’m asking my girlfriend a question. What is your part to intervene?”
Wu Kang is panic-stricken and looks at Dou Weir. He tries to clarify this: “Weir?”
Dou Weir smiles: “You could leave first, Wu Da Ge, thank you for tonight.”
She doesn’t refute so it means that she admits He Ji Fan’s words. Wu Kang glances at her with worried gaze.
Dou Weir says: “I’m okay, don’t worry.”
Wu Kang leaves.
Dou Weir doesn’t refute the fact that she is He Ji Fan’s girlfriend. It makes He Ji Fan calms down a bit.
He talks with Yu Geng Xin for a while and then he drags Dou Weir to leave the restaurant.
“Tell me, who is that Wu Kang? I asked you out for dinner, you didn’t want it. You were more willing to eat with him?” They got on the car. He Ji Fan’s feature is cold. He is full of jealousy.
“He is my blind-date partner.” Dou Weir sits down and says casually. “Tonight is our first time to meet. I feel he is quite okay. He could be friend.”
“Dou Weir!” He Ji Fan is too furious: “Do you think that I’m dead? How could you dare to go to blind-date?”
“Why I don’t dare to do it? I’m unmarried and he is unmarried too. It’s not breaking the law. You should know that principle well. Right?”
He Ji Fan takes a deep breath. He gets off the car and slams the door.
Dou Weir looks at how he is furious and smiles.
He Ji Fan leans on the car and smokes.
After three cigarettes, He Ji Fan gets on the car again. “In the future you are not going to meet that man again, understand?”
“Let’s see. I have no way too, if I b.u.mp him somewhere.” Dou Weir says casually. “Are you done? I’m going to the hospital now. I have my car here. I’ll not take your car.”
She says it and wants to get off the car.
He Ji Fan holds her wrist: “Wei Weir, you still couldn’t accept me? I know that I was a b*st*rd before, but I will change.”
Dou Weir looks at him: “Do you believe that the sun will raise on the west?”
He Ji Fan’s clutch turns tighter. “What do you want me to do so you could trust me?”
it’s not about trusting him or not, it’s about whether she is willing to be immersed in this relations.h.i.+p.
DoU Weir doesn’t talk about her feeling.
The time she drives to the hospital, she locks the door. Then she gets a call from He Yi Yi. “Dou Weir, Yan Xi Ge Ge (Bro Yan Xi) will leave….”
She sobs: “He is going abroad because of you. In the future, he might not come back. Go and persuade him to not leave. He will listen to you.”
Dou Weir frowns: “What do you mean, tell me clearly.”
“Yan Xi Ge Ge is going to Africa to be a volunteer. He says that he wants to gain personal experience. But I know that he just wants to escape the reality. Please, persuade him to not leave. What kind of place Africa is? how could he go there?”
If he is going to Europe, America, or great country, with He Yi Yi’s personality, she might go to. But Africa, how could she go there.
Whether Ji Yan Xi is going to Africa for avoiding the reality or not. Dou Weir isn’t sure. But she feels that she has no relations.h.i.+p with Ji Yan Xi. She has no reason to persuade or stop his action.
“I’m sorry.” Dou Weir could only say those three words.
He Yi YI turns silent for a while, she starts to get emotional.
“He is going there because of you, what if something bad happens to him? Could you bear the responsibility?
“Ji Yan Xi is not three years old, it’s his own choice. If there’s something wrong, he would take responsibility by himself.
“Dou Weir, you are not going to help me?” He Yi Yi roars. But she quickly calms her tone down: “Just think of it as I beg you. In the past I purposely aimed, it’s my wrong. Please help me. In the future if you marry with my Ge, we will be family. We should help each other….
“You couldn’t say that….” Dou Weir doesn’t become loose. “I have no position or status to persuade him to stay. If I really go and persuade him, perhaps it’ll create more misunderstanding. He Yi Yi, don’t you want him to forget me, forget the past? You should give him time. A lot of people go to Africa and they are safe. How could you not let him go?”
“After all is said, that you are not going to help me!” He Yi Yi roars. “I hate you!”
