She hangs up and returns back to the room.

There is a clear happiness on her face.

Zhou Qiao Qiao says to her: “The two nurses that stay here are not really useful. I want to ask them to go, who knows the hospital head of department sends other two. Xin Xin, go and tell the head of department that I don’t need it.”

Ye Qing Xin thinks about it and says: “Since it’s his good intention, let’s not decline it. Just let it be.”

She couldn’t be here constantly. Xiao Guo couldn’t take care of people. With two nurses they can help her.

Zhou Qiao Qiao doesn’t say anything more.

After a while, Ye Qing Xin’s phone rings again.

It’s a call from Dou Weir.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t come out to answer it, she just answers it there.

Dou Weir says: “Xin Xin, this year our school’s fas.h.i.+on designer compet.i.tion starts to open the registration. The hos ist Jing Yan company. It’s great right. I hear that the winner will have a chance to work there. Xin Xin, I’ve helped you to register. When will you go back? You should hurry and design one for preliminary contest. I’ve sent the important and relevant information to your email. Take a look at it!”

Jing Yan company is a company that mainly engages in cosmetic, skincare, perfume, fas.h.i.+on clothes. It’s a great chance to get into Jing Yan company.

Ye Qing Xin also thinks this is a rare chance, she says happily: “Thank you Weir. I don’t know when I’ll be back. But I’ll start to design for the preliminary contest.”

She hangs up and thinks that she should borrow Song Jiu’s laptop. She calls her.

But it’s unanswered.

She puts down her phone and plans to call her back tomorrow.

Zhou Qiao Qiao asks her: “Do you have important matter at school?”

Ye Qing Xin says: “No, my friend help me to register to one of fas.h.i.+on designer compet.i.tion. If I can win, I can get into a company to work.”

Zhou Qiao Qiao: “Since that’s the case, then you should come back quickly. You’ve been here for a week because of Xiao Guo. If you don’t comeback, it’ll affect your study. I also can be discharged. You don’t need to be worried.”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t agree: “NO! You are not really well.”

Zhou Qiao Qiao smiles: “Stupid girl, my health cannot be healed with a day or two. How can it be well easily. I just need to go back home and rest well. It’s the same.”

“But…”

“Just that way. I also lay down everyday here. It’s the same as laying down at home.”

Zhou Qiao Qiao insists to be discharged tomorrow. She doesn’t listen to Ye Qing Xin’s persuasion.

Five o’clock.

Jby calls her and let her to come down.

Ye Qing Xin makes an excuse and leaves the room.

The time she comes out from the elevator, she notices a tall figure with impressive appearance are waiting for her.

He turns his head to see her.

Ye Qing Xin’s heart is beating erratically.

Ye Qing Xin comes over and smiles. “Are you waiting for a long time?”

Jing Bo Yuan twirls his cigarette to let it off. He looks serious but gentle at the same time: “I just arrive.”

Jing Bo Yuan just acts naturally and hugs her shoulder. They go to the parking area.

Jing Bo Yuan opens the door for her. The time she gets in the car, Jing Bo Yuan’s hand blocks her head to prevent her head to hit the car. He also waits for her to sit well and helps her to buckle up.

Ye Qing Xin smiles.

Jing Bo Yuan get in to the car and drives.

Not far away, Auntie Song with Ye Min are watching them, they are bringing food for Zhou Qiao Qiao.

Ye Min looks at them and says to Auntie Song: “Auntie Song, I seem to see that is Xin Xin, she is on a luxury car. Is she having a boyfriend? Her boyfriend seems very rich!”

Auntie Song just ignores her and walks inside.

Ye Min pouts! But she just follows her: “Auntie Song, later on help me let my younger brother’s wife to say something about me to Mayor…”

Ye Min, is cousin of Ye Jun Dong. She always acts hostile toward Ye Qing Xin, but after hearing about Ye Qing Xin and mayor’s relations.h.i.+p. She immediately wants to seize the chance.

The white land rover stops in front of a restaurant.

Inside the private room.

Both of them order food. When they are waiting for the food, Ye Qing Xin takes out the card that she got from Auntie Wen, and pa.s.ses it to Jing Bo Yuan.

Jing Bo Yuan glances at it. He is getting ready to pour the tea to the cup.

Ye Qing Xin wants to intercept him: “Let me do it.”

Jing Bo Yuan clutches her hand and says: “Sit down.”

Ye Qing Xin just sits down.

She silently disdains herself.

They are boyfriend and girlfriend, why his word can make her be brave?

Once again she tries to pa.s.s the card, Ye Qing Xin says: “I already returned her money, I return your money to you now.”

Jing Bo Yuan just pa.s.ses one cup of tea to her and says: “You can keep it.”

Ye Qing Xin shakes her head and puts it in front of him: ‘I can earn my own money. I don’t need to use yours!”

He watches her, Ye Qing Xin feels unnatural.

“That……. how can you know that Auntie Wen lent her money to me?”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything. He suddenly just clutches her hand and pulls her to sit down on his thigh.

Ye Qing Xin is surprised and looks at the door. She is panic.

This man…….

He doesn’t afraid that someone will watch them.

Jing Bo Yuan just hugs her waist.

Ye Qing Xin bits her lips and the next moment she calls his name: “Bo Yuan…..”

Her voice is small like a kitten.

Jing Bo Yuan clutches her chin and raises her face.

Then he moves closer.

Ye Qing Xin closes her eyes.

At this moment.

The door is opened. A waitress comes inside to serve the food.

The waitress is startled and starts to apologize: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I don’t do it in purpose….”

Both of them move away.

Ye Qing Xin returns to her seat. She acts calm even though her heart is racing.

She glances at Jing Bo Yuan, but he seems so calm.

Ye Qing Xin lowers her head and feels this man is really good at pretending.

After half an hours, they both finishes their meal and comes out from the restaurant.

The weather is cold. Ye Qing Xin is s.h.i.+vering.

In a next moment, a man coat drapes on her shoulder.

Ye Qing Xin turns her head and thanks him.

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything and just hugs her shoulder close to his body.

At the parking s.p.a.ce, Jing Bo Yuan helps Ye Qing Xin to open the door. When Ye Qing Xin wants to get on the car…..

“Ye Qing Xin?” A woman calls her.

Ye Qing Xin looks over. It’s her senior high school’s cla.s.smate. Xu Jing.

“Xu Jing.” She greets her.

Xu Jing dressed up fas.h.i.+onably, she uses a simple make up.

“This is your boyfriend?” Xu Jing examines Jing Bo Yuan’s appearance.

Xu Jing seems to be interested at him.

Ye Qing Xin frowns when she notices her interest.

Xu Jing comes over but doesn’t stand in front of Ye Qing Xin, but she is standing beside Jing Bo Yuan.

“h.e.l.lo, my name is Xu Jing. I am Ye Qing Xin’s senior high-school cla.s.smate. Very nice to meet you.” She extends her hand to shake his hand.

Jing Bo Yuan just nods at her.

Xu Jing is startled and she just smiles.

“In this situation, normally when a lady wants to shake hand, the man will reply.”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t change his expression. He just be quiet.

Xu Jing just takes back her hand.

She is trying to tease Jing Bo Yuan in front of Ye Qing Xin, of course Ye Qing Xin is not happy with it.

But she is satisfied with Jing Bo Yuan’s response.

Xu Jing doesn’t stop. She looks at Ye Qing Xin: “We have stopped contact each other since high school. Can you leave your phone so we can contact each other. I heard that you are in Jing City? Later on I’ll come to play with you. You should meet me.”

She takes out her phone: “What is your phone number?”

Ye Qing Xin says: “I’m sorry. I lose my phone, I haven’t bought a new one.”

“Ay!” Xu Jing sighs and looks at Jing Bo Yuan: “If not you can leave your boyfriend phone’s number? How can I look for you later on?”

Ye Qing Xin just smiles but doesn’t say anything.

Jing Bo Yuan just says calmly: “Mine is gone too.”

Xu Jing: “…….”

Jing Bo Yuan lowers his head to see Ye Qing Xin and says gently: “Let’s go.”

Ye Qing Xin purses her lips and says to Xu Jing: “Goodbye.”. She gets in.

The white land rover starts to move.

Leaving Xu Jing alone at the parking s.p.a.ce.

Xu Jing stomps her feet and feels furious.

Impolite man!

Ye Qing Xin says sorely to him: “Why didn’t you leave your phone number for her? Look you make her angry.”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her: “You hope that I give it to her? Now there’s still time to go back.”

Ye Qing Xin is startled: “You….”

“He…” Jing Bo Yuan laughs lightly. He clutches Ye Qing Xin’s hand.

His palm is warm, st.u.r.dy, and strong. It wraps Ye Qing Xin’s whole hand. It’s very safe.

Ye Qing Xin looks at the window.

After a while.

Ye Qing Xin just realizes that the car is not going back to the hospital. She is startled. She looks at Jing Bo Yuan: “where are we going?”

Jing Bo Yuan looks seriously: “It’s still early. Just go to my place to sit down.”

“These days where are you staying?”

“Hotel.”

“O.”

Jing Bo Yuan’s phone rings.

He answers it with his bluetooth earphone.

It should be a business call.

The car stops in front of the hotel, but he hasn’t finished with his call.

She keeps watching his action.

After ten minutes, the call ends. Jing Bo Yuan hangs up and strokes her hair: “Are you worried?

Ye Qing Xin shakes her head.

“Get off.”

Both of them gets off and walks inside the hotel.

“Mr Jing, goodnight.” The receptionist greets them.

Jing Bo Yuan nods and hugs Ye Qing Xin to pa.s.s the lobby.

“That man is too handsome.”

“So mature and handsome, he is my type. It’s a pity that he has a girlfriend!” Both of the receptionists speak to each other.

Jing Bo Yuan takes Ye Qing Xin to the elevator to get to his hotel room.

He takes out his hotel card to open the room. When the hotel room be opened, there’s a sweet scent and tobacco scent.

The five-star hotel room in little town cannot be compared to the hotel in Jing family. The room is not big, but very clean.

Ye Qing Xin looks around.

She puts down the coat that drapes on her shoulder. Jing Bo Yuan takes it and hangs it up. She peeks at his wardrobe and looks that every clothes are hanged very neat.

He is really a meticulous and cautious man.

Then he also undoes his tie and folds his sleeve.

Ye Qing Xin feels so nervous to be in the same room as him.

She goes to the window and looks at the scenery under.

Then suddenly.

She is wrapped by a warn embrace. He places his chin on her shoulder.

Her body is stiffen. She couldn’t break free.

After a while, Jing Bo Yuan let her go and kiss her forehead. He brings her to the sofa and pa.s.ses her a magazine. He goes to his desk to read his material.

They both don’t talk. They do each of their task by themselves. Ye Qing Xin feels so happy for it.

Ye Qing Xin leaves around nine thirty.

Jing Bo Yuan sends her to the hospital lobby and waits until her elevator reaches Zhou Qiao Qiao’s floor. After several minutes, he calls to make sure she has arrived the room. Then he leaves.

The next mnorning.

Zhou Qiao Qiao handles her own discharge administration. Ye Qing Xin cannot persuade her. She tidies up the room and they go back home.

Their house in a lane, it’s a small old house.

Zhou Qiao Qiao says to Ye Qing Xin: “This afternoon you should go back to Jing City. You shouldn’t delay it much longer. You should go study.”

Ye Qing Xin thinks about it: “Tomorrow, let me accompany you for a day.”

Zhou Qiao Qiao doesn’t say anything more, she goes back to her bedroom. She takes out a box and opens it. Inside it is a necklace.

The necklace has an eye-shaped pedant and inlays with blue sapphire.

It’s really a beautiful necklace.

“Where does it come from?”

Zhou Qiao Qiao helps Ye Qing Xin to wear it: “For you, just wear it.”

Then she orders: “You need to be careful, don’t lose it.”

“Is it really expensive.”

“Yes, it is. This is family inheritance.”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t really believe it. She put the pendant under her clothes: “Then I’ll hide it well.”

“There’s nothing inside the fridge? I will go to the Jiu Jiu’s market to buy something.”

Ye Qing Xin takes the wallet to go. Ye Qing Guo hurriedly says: “Xiao Guo also wants to go!”

In a blink eyes, a day pa.s.ses.

At night five o’clock.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t ask Jing Bo Yuan to pick her up. She just goes together with Song Jiu by taxi to Nan Hai Yan.

It’s a high-end restaurant in T city.

They don’t wait long for him.

The time he gets off his car. Song Jiu’s eyes are big, she clutches Ye Qing Xin’s hand. She is so excited.

“Xin Xin, everyone says that most old director always man with bald head and fat belly? Why you can look for that young and handsome?”

Ye Qing Xin pokes her and warns her: “Later on mind your manner, okay?”

Song Jiu nods. But a next second, she just comes toward Jing Bo Yuan. She nods and bows at him: “Chief Jing, It’s an honor to meet you at least. Nice to meet you.”

Ye Qing Xin: “………”

Jing Bo Yuan is expressionless but he shows his deference and shakes her hands.

Song Jiu is so surprised that she can shake hand with rich people. She decides that she will not wash your hand!

Three of them get inside the restaurant.

Jing Bo Yuan walks in front of them, Ye Qing Xin and Song Jiu walks behind him.

The waiter greets them friendly and takes them to a private room.

During ordering, Song Jiu particularly orders the expensive one, she doesn’t care whether she likes it or not.

Ye Qing Xin cannot endure it anymore. She just kicks her and glares at her.

Song Jiu feels the pain, she looks at Jing Bo Yuan with her sad face: “Chief Jing, Xin Xin said that you guys just ensure your relations.h.i.+p? Is it real? Why I don’t think it is?”

Jing Bo Yuan raises his eyes to look at her.

Song Jiu just says directly: “I just order a bit expensive food, Xin Xin kicked me under the table because she dislikes me to order too much. Are you sure you are just be boyfriend and girlfriend, you guys clearly look like an old couple, Xin Xin really wants to save money for you….”

Ye Qing Xin is blus.h.i.+ng. She is regretting her act of taking Song Jiu to eat together with Jing Bo Yuan. This girl really has too much words.

Jing Bo Yuan smiles and clutches Ye Qing Xin’s hand. He says: “no harms. No need to help me save money.’

Ye Qing Xin: “……”

Ok, she should just mind her own business.

After the dinner, Jing Bo Yuan sends both of them back.

Ye Qing Xin suddenly remembers that she hasn’t told Jing Bo Yuan that she will return to Jing City tomorrow. She says to him: “Tomorrow I’ll go back to Jing City, what about you?”

Jing Bo Yuan just asks: “When will you go back?”

“In the mid-afternoon.”

“I’ll come to pick you up.”

The car stops in front the lane.

Song Jiu gets off first: “I’ll go back first. You guys can have a nice chat. I’ll not disturb you. Bye bye.”

Ye Qing Xin then looks at Jing Bo Yuan and remembers a question that she always has inside her heart. She purses her lips: “That, I always have a question for you…”

Jing Bo Yuan: “What is it?”

“The first time we met, you always be good to me, you….. why do you always be good to me?”

Jing Bo Yuan then kisses her lip lightly and clutches her face. Their eyes look at each other.

He speaks up with his hoa.r.s.e voice: “That is your fate, Xin Xin.”

Ye Qing Xin: “…….”

This answer is too ambiguous. It’s just he just directly kisses her. She shakes but she closes her eyes and responds.

After a while, he let her go and pinches her cheek lightly. He sends her to the front of the house and waits until she locks the door. Then he returns back to his car.

When she is inside, she hears a sharp and loud cough from Zhou Qiao Qiao’s room. It’s too loud.

Ye Qing Xin runs over her room.

The time the door is opened, Zhou Qiao Qiao is surprised. She hides something hurriedly. She smiles stiffly: “Xin Xin, you are home.”

Ye Qing Xin notices it but she acts like she doesn’t see it.

“Ma, your coughing is getting worst, if not let me stay for two more days and we can go to the doctor to check it?”

Zhou Qiao Qiao smiles: “What kind of check? I am okay. I know my body. Really.”

“But after two days Xiao Guo will be going to school again. I’m not relieved to let you stay alone.”

“Your Ma is not a three years old kid, how can you are not relieved? Okay, go to sleep. I am also very tired.”

“Ma……”

“Go sleep. Hurry up.”

Zhou Qiao Qiao pushes Ye Qing XIn out and locks the door. Her smile fades. She returns to her bed and takes the things that she hid before.

It’s nothing. It’s just a tissue that she used before. There’s a blood on it.

She throws it to the bin.

She coughs one more time, this time it’s more blood on it.

She remembers the doctor’s word for her.

“You need to be ready. You are at the end stage of lung cancer…”

Lung cancer…. end stage….

She doesn’t feel afraid of dead, she already thinks that she lives for a long time, it’s just her kid……. her Xiao Guo.

The next day.

Zhou Qiao Qiao sends Ye Qing Xin out.

Auntie Song and Song Jiu also comes over.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t have a lot of things. She just brings her backpack.

Ye Qing Guo clutches her sleeve tightly, he acts like an abandon dog. He looks miserable.

Ye Qing Xin strokes his head and comforts him. But he is unwilling to let her go.

She bids her goodbye to everyone and Ye Qing Xin gets on a bus.

She doesn’t let Jing Bo Yuan to pick her up. His car is too attractive so she asks him to meet at the bus stop.

When she gets off the bus, Luo Feng comes over and takes her bag.

Ye Qing Xin thanks him.

Luo Feng will be their driver for returning back to Jing City so Jing Bo Yuan and Ye Qing Xin sits down on the backseat.

It needs around ten hours to go back to Jing City.

At first, Ye Qing Xin is okay. But after several hours, she is fighting with her sleepiness and finally she just sleeps.

The time she wakes up, she notices that she is laying down on Jing Bo Yuan’s thigh. She immediately wakes up and notices a wet mark on his thigh.

She unexpectedly s...o...b..rs!

Ye Qing Xin really wants to dig a hole and bury herself. She immediately takes out her tissue and wants to wipe it: “Sorry, I don’t do it in purpose….”

She just wipes it but…. Jing Bo Yuan just takes it from her hand. His face turns dark and sour.

Ye Qing Xin thinks that he is angry. She says once again: “I’m sorry…….”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything. He just wipes it by himself.

Ye Qing Xin thinks that she is being ignored.

At seven o’clock at night, they stops at a top-cla.s.s hotel.

Tonight they will stay here.

Jing Bo Yuan and Ye Qing Xin gets off the car.

Luo Feng follows them with their suitcase.

Jing Bo Yuan immediately asks for two rooms. Then Jing Bo Yuan holds her hand:”Let’s go, let’s eat first.”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t raise her hand, she just “o.”

Ye Qing Xin pa.s.ses a card to Luo Feng and let him to send the suitcase up. Then both of them just go to the restaurant. Ye Qing Xin keeps her head down.

Both of them sits down. Jing Bo Yuan asks Ye Qing Xin to order the food: ‘You should order whatever you want. Then you will have a rest. You should be tired.”

Ye Qing Xin just orders two dishes recklessly. She keeps her head down.

Jing Bo Yuan frowns but doesn’t say anything. He just orders several more dishes.

During the waiting time.

Jing Bo Yuan asks the unhappy little girl: “You are not happy because I don’t let you wipe my pants?”

Ye Qing Xin just stays silent and bits her lips.

How can she be angry because he didn’t let her wipe his pants? It’s just his face, it’s too frightening!

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything and just looks at her.

The dishes come.

Luo Feng also comes over, but he sits on the next table.

After they are done, three of them go to the room.

Luo Feng takes out the card and pa.s.ses one to Jing Bo Yuan.

Naturally Ye Qing Xin also extends her hand to take another one.

Luo Feng takes the other card and says: “Ms Ye, this is mine. Yours and Chief Jing’s card is with Chief Jing.”

Ye Qing Xin: “…..?”

She looks at Jing Bo Yuan.

Two room, it’s not one for her and one for him?

Jing Bo Yuan looks serious and looks at Luo Feng. Likes this matter of room arrangement is unrelated to him.

Luo Feng is confused.

It’s not easy to be a.s.sistant, being a big boss’ a.s.sistant is worse, being an a.s.sistant of a dating big boss is even worst!

But he explains professionally: “I hears that the security here is not very good. It’s not good for Ms Ye to stay alone. Moreover it’s a suite. It has more rooms. You can have a room there. There’ll be no effect……. hehe….”

He says it then gets ready to run away: “Okay, it’s not early anymore. I’m too tired after driving for a day. I’ll go back to sleep first. Tomorrow I need to drive again. Hehe. Goodbye Chief Jing, Goodbye Ms Ye.”

Then he just goes to his room and locks her door.

Ye Qing Xin: “……..”

Jing Bo Yuan just opens the door. “Let’s get in.”

Ye Qing Xin bits her lips and gets in.

The time the door closes, she feels it’s so dark.

In the next moment, she is pressed on the door by Jing Bo Yuan.

He looks at her and says: “Are you still unhappy?”

Ye Qing Xin is blus.h.i.+ng but doesn’t say anything

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her and his hot breath touches her nose: “You cannot carelessly touch a man’s thigh, understand?”

Ye Qing Xin: “…..”

She looks at him and she still feels confused.

Jing Bo Yuan hugs her and let her be in his embrace.

Then she suddenly feels something abnormal. She is blus.h.i.+ng really hard.

“You…”

“Now you understand it?”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t dare to look at him. Her heart beats so fast.

After a while.

Jing Bo Yuan kisses her face then let her go. “Go take a shower. And sleep early.”

Ye Qing Xin goes to take her bag and just runs to the bathroom.

She looks at the mirror and looks at her blus.h.i.+ng expression.

The time she was with Wen Ze Yan, she never did anything with him except holding hands. She never did anything like Jing Bo Yuan that .. that is impudent.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know how should she do.

Since their relations.h.i.+p changes, Jing Bo Yuan also acts differnetly.

He still the same person. With anyone else he is still introverted and reversed, but with her privately, he will be different and let her unable to resist him.

After the shower, she dries her head and wears a coat under her pajamas. She takes her bag and comes out. She doesn’t notice Jing Bo Yuan and just directly run to the bedroom.

She gets in and locks the door. Then she just releases a big breath.

She decides that she should be more careful.

The time she turns her head. She notices Jing Bo Yuan, who is smoking and holding phone at the same time. She screams “Ah!”. Her bag falls down from her embrace.

Jing Bo Yuan is sitting their without his coat. The top three b.u.t.tons of s.h.i.+rt are opened. It shows his st.u.r.dy and strong muscle. He is so charming and s.e.xy.

It’s the first time she sees him like thsi.

Jing Bo Yuan acts calmly and looks at her: “Are you done?”

Ye Qing Xin is like a scared white rabbit. She glares at him and be alerted. She takes a step back and nods.

Jing Bo Yuan finds her funny. He stands up and approaches her.

Every step he takes makes Ye Qing Xin even more afraid.

He stops in front of her. “Are you afraid?”

“No, no…..”

“Are you cold?”

Ye Qing Xin shakes her head.

Jing Bo Yuan bends his knee and carries her up.

He takes her to the bed.

Ye Qing Xin’s heart is beating so quick.

“Bo, Bo Yuan…….”
