Chapter 171
Jing Bo Yuan watches her getting into the dorm. He just leaves when he is sure that she is safe.
His phone suddenly rings. It’s Cheng Ru Yu’s call.
He answers it. Cheng Ru Yu says enthusiastically. “Was the young woman touched that she cried?”
Jing Bo Yuan takes his cigarette and smokes it again. “You are really in leisure mood.”
Cheng Ru Yu laughs and says: “I’m just worried about you. You cannot just teach her, you should chase after her. You should give her romantic surprise sometimes, you have been giving her cold-shoulder for several days, you should be romantic? Oh right, today the flowers cost around 570000. When will you give it to me?”
“You are so expert at this, Cheng Nai Nai should arrange more blind date for you, you should marry early.” Jing Bo Yuan says casually.
Cheng Ru Yu is startled and snarls: “Don’t! Is this the way you repay my kindness? I did this for you.......”
Jing Bo Yuan just hangs up.
He returns to his car. Luo Feng helps him to close the door. Then he starts to drive.
“Are you really close with Cheng Ru Yu?” Jing Bo Yuan asks coldly.
His tone is normal, but Luo Feng is somewhat worried, he swallows his saliva and answers: “also.... not really close..... it’s just.... these two days we met for so long.....”
“Telling an outsider about your boss’ location, you really a good assistant.”
Luo Feng is surprised.
Oh no.
“I’m sorry. Chief Jing.” Luo Feng apologizes sincerely.
These days Cheng Ru Yu keeps on asking about Chief Jing’s location and actions. He thought that Cheng Ru Yu and his boss are in good relationship so he thought it’ll be okay to tell him. Moreover he is not immune to Cheng Ru Yu’s friendliness.
Jing Bo Yuan looks at him and doesn’t say anything.
The next day at the restaurant change room, Ye Qing Xin hears about other employees’ remarks about last night local tyrant that emptied the train station to woo his lover. There’s no one knows the result of it. Anyway, a lot of people cannot get in to the train to go home. Complaints are heard anywhere.
Ye Qing Xin changes her clothes and doesn’t answer.
Everyone gathers at the hall to get ready for attendance check. Suddenly someone shouts: “Excuse, is Ms Ye Qing Xin here?”
Ye Qing Xin is startled and looks at the door. A twenty years old young man stands there with a huge bouquet of flower. Looking that no one is responding to his question. He asks once: “Excuse is Ms Ye Qing Xin here?”
“Here!” Someone points at Ye Qing Xin.
That man comes over and passes Ye Qing Xin: “Your flowers, please sign it.”
Ye Qing Xin looks at the huge bouquet of roses and suddenly remembers about last night. She could easily guess who is the sender. She is startled and doesn’t take it.
Someone beside her helps her to take it. She is so excited likes the flowers are for her.
Woman really has no resistance for roses. Not only because it’s prettiness, but because it represents something. Love. It’s the most thing that every young woman wants.
“Please sign this.” The flower delivery boy passes the pen and the paper.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t make thing hard for him, she just signs it.
“Ninety nine flowers, everlasting and unchanging, Xin Xin. Who is the sender?”
“Do you need to ask? It’s should be her pursuer.”
“It’s so beautiful, I’m a grown up, but I never gets any rose........”
A lot of people surrounds to look at the flowers. There’s still ten minutes before the checking attendance starts.
“Xin Xin, hurry up go and put it in the changing room. Later on the manager will come here, she will say something about this.”
Ye Qing Xin looks at the beautiful flower and smiles. She says: “I’m allergic to flower.”
It’s simply means that she doesn’t want the flowers.
“It’s too pity? This is beautiful. If you don’t want, if not just give me to me.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and nods: “Em.”
That woman just takes the flowers back to the changing room.
After a while, she is passed a card: “Xin Xin, there’s a card.”
On the card there’re only eight words.
“Nian Nian Sui Sui Zhao Zhao Mu Mu”
(“Year after year, age after age, all the time”)
His handwriting is profound and powerful,
Ye Qing Xin knows that handwriting, her heart beats so fast.
That words, every his word shows his love and care.
During the mid-afternoon, everyone is eating lunch.
Ye Qing Xin just sits down and someone sits down in the opposite on her.
She raises her head and looks that is the woman, that talked with Jing Bo Yuan last night.
“That flowers are from Jing Bo Yuan?” She asks directly.
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “There’s no name. I am not really clear.”
She snorts: “Whoever got a flower from him, it’s a blessing. You are good, you don’t want and you also don’t admit that he is the one that sends it to you, why are you acting?”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t say anything.
“A big boss stayed outside outside the restaurant at midnight to wait for you. How can you not be touched with it? Should I say that you are unreasonable or stupid?”
Ye Qing Xin is silent.
“Man has limited patience. Let me tell you don’t play too hard to get. It will eliminate man’s patience. Later on if you regret it and cry back to get him, he will not turn his head to see you.”
Ye Qing Xin is curious: “Why are you saying this to me?”
She smiles and says: “I just cannot bear to see your attitude.”
Ye Qing Xin: “.......”
She gets off the work at 10:00 p.m.
Tonight there’s no Jing Bo Yuan that stops her. She just goes to the train situation as she uses to do.
She sits down at the chair on the train and thinks about the scene yesterday. She remembers his hot and urgent kiss. Her heart is full of emotion.
She gets off the train station. When she is getting ready to go to bus station, suddenly someone bumps her, her hand turns empty. The time she regains herself, her bag is gone from her hand. That person has ran.
She doesn’t think and just runs after her.
Yet this time, someone runs passed her. He helps her to snatch the bag from that snatcher. He is fast and successfully takes the bag. Then he goes back and gives it back to her.
“Thank you.” She takes the bag. Ye Qing Xin thanks him.
He smiles at her friendly: “It’s okay. It’s easy. Later on you need to be more careful.”
The snatcher just runs away when he notices that he cannot do anything.
Her savior just leaves.
Ye Qing Xin smiles, she feels that in this world there’s still a good person.
The time she returns to the dorm, the bouquet of flowers from last night is still on her table.
Ye Qing Xin sits down on her chair. She takes a card from her bag and opens it.
“Nian Nian Sui Sui Zhao Zhao Mu Mu”
(“Year after year, age after age, all the time”)
She cannot help but to think what’s his feeling when he wrote this. He should be very impressive.
For next following days.
Ye Qing Xin gets a bouquet of roses everyday day and gets the same card.
But she never meets Jing Bo Yuan. There’s no call or message.
If it’s not because of the flower or the card, she will think that they are done.
The holiday ends.
The first day of school, Jing Suo Suo comes to tell Ye Qing Xin: “Da Ge went to Shang Hai for business meeting. I followed him to travel for several days. Ckck, I played around and didn’t want to go home. There’re a lots of places to drink and play. It’s too bad that you didn’t go with me. But I bring you a gift......”
JIng Suo Suo takes out a mysterious big box from her bag.
“Don’t open it now. Go home and open it.” Jing Suo Suo puts the box into Ye Qing Xin’s bag. It’s quite big that it cannot fitted fully.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t pay attention to her action. She just thinks about her words “Da Ge went to Shang Hai.”
He went to Shang Hai.
She..... didn’t know about it.
At night after the class ends, Ye Qing Xin gets several messages and missed calls.
During the class, she usually put her phone to silent mode.
Those calls are from Connie.
Ye Qing Xin calls her back. Connie seems to be happy: “Xin Xin, it’s because of you, Pear gets a lot of orders after the Milan fashion show is done......”
“It’s my task.....”
At first Connie wanted Ye Qing Xin to go with them to let her experience the feeling of holding a fashion show. But Ye Qing Xin doesn’t have valid passport. There’s no time to handle it, so she didn’t go.
Connie says: ” A lot of buyers praises me that this year collection has great colors. It’s your effort. Tonight we have celebration dinner at Shi Ji restaurant. It’ll start at seven o’clock. Xin Xin, you need to come okay.
She hangs up. Ye Qing Xin looks at the time. It’s already 05:30 p.m.
She returns to the dorm to change her clothes. JIng Suo Suo’s gift is placed inside the wardrobe by her. Then she takes public bus to Shi Ji restaurant.
The time she arrives there, it’s already 06:30 p.m. There’re already many employees and designers there. Connie hasn’t arrived.
At 07:00 p.m. it starts.
At the dinner, Connie mentions about Ye Qing Xin and Han Huo Huo’s efforts. She praises their work together. At last, she says. “I always think that Xin Xin is talented. There’s a fashion competition that is held by No company. Xin Xin, you should go and join it. If you can get first place, then you’ll be the official and permanent employee of our Pear company.”
Ye Qing Xin’s eyes turn bright. She stands up and proposes a toast with Connie: “I’ll try my best.”
Everyone claps.
Han Huo Huo says to Ye Qing Xin: “Our Boss is training you, you need to hold it.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Em, I will.”
Afer the dinner, someone mentions to go to Shi Guang Qing Cheng.
Connie smiles and agrees. All of them goes to Shi Guang Qing Cheng.
Inside the room.
Everyone is happy, they are singing and drinking. Ye Qing Xin feels that her troubles are completely vanished that time. She suddenly understands why someone with bad mood always goes to place like this.
Probably because she drinks too much water, she goes out to the restroom.
Pear’s private room is at the western part, to go to the restroom, she needs to pass ten private rooms.
She passes a private room and suddenly a door is opened. There’re two men coming out of the room. One of them acts elegantly and another one is so handsome likes a prince.
Ye Qing Xin stops and looks at both of them. She doesn’t care about them, she prepares to let them pass first then she will go.
Suddenly!
“Ah! Lou Liang Chen! Come back! You cannot do this to me! No.... Ng.....” A woman’s voice come out from that room. But very quickly her mouth seems to be blocked by something. The time the door is about to be closed, Ye Qing Xin could hear a depressed howl from that room.
She hears like she is experiencing something bad.
That voice is familiar. It lets Ye Qing Xin to be startled.
It’s Yu Qing You’s voice.
Lou Liang Chen, isn’t it Yu Qing You’s husband?
Ye Qing Xin looks at both of the man. She cannot see what happened inside the room. She doesn’t want to care much and just passes them.
The time she wants to pass them. The handsome one says: “Liang Chen, before that woman glared at me, she is annoying. Let A Xin and friends sort her out more ruthlessly.”
Ye Qing Xin: “..........”
She doesn’t want to listen anymore. She just passes and walks quickly.
When she passes them, she couldn’t help but to think about that thing. She kneels down near the corner
She recalls that Jing Suo Suo said that Lou Liang Chen likes Yu Qing You for so many years. He doesn’t care about Yu Qing You’s bad reputation. He used a huge amount of betrothal gift, biggest diamond ring, the most beautiful wedding dress, most luxurious wedding to marry her. He should spoil her rotten.
But...... although she doesn’t see it by her own eyes. But she could guess what Yu Qing You suffered inside.
But Yu Qing You’s husband just stays outside. It seems to be orchestrated by his husband......
Ye Qing Xin is somewhat confused. Since he spent a lot of money, then how can he treat her like that.
Suddenly she thinks of a delicate and gentle man ......
Also Jing Bo Yuan’s words in the past, he will avenge their kids......
Suddenly she realizes something....
She then just stands up and goes to the restroom.
The time she comes out of the restroom, she passes the private room that Yu Qing You in.
Ye Qing Xin just slows her pace and tries to hear something. But there’s nothing.
The time she is about passed it, the door is suddenly opened again.
Ye Qing Xin: “.......”
There’s a bulky man with beard stubble comes out of the room. He looks devil and a bit ugly. His face is red. He looks happy and satisfied.
Ye QIng Xin is familiar with this expression.
In the past, every time after their intimate moment, Jing Bo Yuan will also show that kind of expression.
It’s kind that shows his satisfaction after the passionate moment.
Ye Qing Xin wals faster.
Then she hears another husky voice: “I’ll go to the restroom first. You guys take it easier. Don’t give her any visible wound, okay?”
Ye Qing Xin just stops. She understands what Jing Bo Yuan means by revenge now. She recalls her words to him: “How did you take avenge, how can you think Yu Qing You get marry with a man that she doesn’t love is a revenge? You want her to suffer mental suffering? Jing Bo Yuan, don’t think too highly about yourself? You think every woman wants to marry you, and not marry you is a life death situation?”
That time what was his feeling? He should be sad.
Ye Qing Xin sits down on her sofa and covers her heart. She is in pain for him.
After the gathering, Ye Qing Xin follows everyone to come out Shi Guang Qing Cheng. Everyone is happy, it’s only Ye Qing Xin that is unfocused.
“Xin Xin, why are you unhappy?” Han Huo Huo asks her with a smile.
Ye Qing Xin looks for an excuse, she says: “I have stomachache.”
“Is it serious? Do you want to go to the hospital?” Han Huo Huo asks with considerate tone.
Ye Qing Xin smiles and shakes her head: “No, I’m okay. I’m just in my menstrual period. It’s just an old illness, I just need to drink warm water.”
“Let me send you home. It’ll be inconvenient for you to take taxi this late.” Han Huo Huo says: “Wait for me for a while, I’ll take my car here.”
Ye Qing Xin looks at the time. It’s indeed not early anymore. It’s already twelve o’clock.
She cannot go back to the dorm.
“Which school are you in?” Han Huo Huo asks.
Ye Qing Xin gets into Han Huo Huo’s car. She says: “Send me to Si He Shang Yuan.”
Han Huo Huo: “Em?”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “The school dorm has curfew. Now if I go home, then I’ll cannot get in too. I have a relative at Si He Shang Yuan. I can stay there.”
Han Huo Huo doesn’t say anything. She drives the car there.
Ye Qing Xin gets off the car at Si He Shang Yuan.
Ye Qing Xin thanks her. She sees her leave and gets inside.
It’s been a long time since she went back to Si He Shang Yuan, but everything is neat and tidy.
She takes a shower but she doesn’t have any toiletries so she just uses water. She comes out and lays down on the bed. She keeps on flipping around, she cannot sleep.
She takes out her phone and opens her contact list. She opens Jing Bo Yuan’s number. Then her finger stops, then she puts it down.
It’s late, he should be sleeping now.
After a while, she picks up her phone again and opens her inbox. She erases all the messages, except from Jing Bo Yuan.
His first message for her, it’s the time she was pounded by Tai Shi Yun on the head. He wrote: “Auntie Zhang will come at 09:00 p.m. Don’t be afraid.”
Then she keeps on reading at the other messages. There’s no shady message, but messages that show his care about her.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know why but tonight she really wants to see him. Compares to another time of her life, she really wants to see him. She opens her contact list again, she hesitates and dials the number.
Her mind is in a mess, she doesn’t know what should she say.
“Sorry, the number your calling is turned off......”
Ye Qing Xin feels disappointed.
After the holiday, Ye Qing Xin doesn’t accept any flower from Jing Bo Yuan.
After that unanswered call, she also never tries again to call him again. Their relation just ends that way.
During the class, sometimes Ye Qing Xin will think Jing Bo Yuan’s news from Jing Suo Suo.
After he came home from Shang Hai, he went to Hong Kong, then he went to Italy.
He is so busy and keeps on traveling around for business.
Sometimes Ye Qing Xin also reads a lot of Bo Wei’s business about their revenue or expansion.
