Chapter 146
Xiao Lian looks at both of them. She notices his gentle gaze at the woman in front of her. It’s the first time for her to see it.
Ye Qing Xin hears “Xiao Lian”, she suddenly knows why she finds unpleasant to see them.
Xiao Lian.
She had seen her name on Jing Bo Yuan’s phone.
She heard from their call that Xiao Lian is a woman that wants to go back from abroad. She had asked Jing Bo Yuan for advice? She used to think what kind of person Xiao Lian is? What is their relation.
Indeed big boss’ friend is not a commoner.
Ye Qing Xin smiles toward Xiao Lian. She says sweetly: “Xiao Jie JIe, it’s very nice meeting you.”
Xiao Lian notices that Ye Qing Xin’s smile is very charming.
She smiles back coldly and looks at Jing Bo Yuan: “So this is your style.”
Jing Bo Yuan smiles and says: “Not really.” He adds: “It’s just I take the fancy of her.”
He likes her not her style.
Ye Qing Xin looks at Jing Bo Yuan. He is shinning on her gaze.
She moves closer toward her. She could smell the faint peppermint on his body. Her heartbeat is so fast.
Jing Bo Yuan lowers his head and looks at her eyes. He smiles and tidies up her hair. He acts intimately and closely to her.
Xiao Lian suddenly feels like she is barged into other people’s world.
She smiles and breaks their both sweet and peaceful world. “I have dinner appointment with a friend tonight, do you guys want to join?”
Jing Bo Yuan looks at her and replies: “no, we have thing to do.”
“Okay, then I’ll leave first.” Xiao Lian says and looks at Ye Qing Xin. She waves at her: “Bye.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Xiao Jie Jie, goodbye.”
They watch Xiao Lian gets on the car and leaves. Ye Qing Xin turns her head and looks at Jing Bo Yuan. She smiles at him: “So turns out Isla is your friend. When I talked to you about working with her this morning, why didn’t you mention it?”
Jing Bo Yuan looks at her. Although this woman tries hard to hide his jealousy, but he could notice it. He smiles and strokes her head. He asks: “what should I tell you?”
Ye Qing Xin purses her lips: “Tell me that you know Isla.”
Jing Bo Yuan: “Don’t you know about it now?”
Ye Qing Xin: “It’s different.”
Ye Qing Xin: “What is the difference?”
Ye Qing Xin: “……”
They get on the car. She mumbles to herself: “Not the same.”
That man just laughs and says nothing. He holds her hand.
On the car, Xiao Lian notices someone familiar that comes out from the national stadium. That woman chases after Jing Bo Yuan’s car.
She is surprised and tries to recognize that woman.
Her a.s.sistant also looks over and be surprised: “That is big designer Connie right?”
Connie, she is international well-known designer. She used to hold position of Chief designer from many luxury brands. Then she establishes her own fashion label “Pear”.
Before Xiao Lian was famous, she had worked together with her once. Their cooperation had helped her to be famous and known model. It gave her chance to grow.
Xiao Lian gets off the car and greets Connie. She says respectfully: “Connie,what a great coincidence.”
Connie stops chasing after the white land rover. She replies her gracefully: “Is, I especially came to look at your show, I don’t know whether you have time to have a coffee?”
She should want to cooperate with Xiao Lian.
Xiao Lian nods and smiles: “Of course I have time.”
On the land rover car, Ye Qing Xin watches the view outside the car’s window. She tries to replay what happened during the compet.i.tion. She couldn’t help but to sigh. Except being lucky to be able to find a good man, she is a bit lacking in other part. Her clothes were ruined, she made Isla fell down. That time when she finished explaining her design, she looked at the judges’ response and felt that her chance of winning is great. At last, she lost by just one point.
“What are you sighing about?”
She looks at him. She feels that she is out of his element. She feels that she losses her chance to getting closer to what he has achieved.
“I don’t get into JIng Yan, isn’t I am unqualified?”
At first she didn’t really care about it. Although she was surprised with the result, but she didn’t feel depressed. But now she thinks that is too pity.
Jing Bo Yuan notices her discouragement and says: “Not getting to Jing Yan is not really a bad thing. You are still young, there’s still a long way to go. You shouldn’t too worry or rushing. You should be more concentrate with your study.”
She notices his attempt to comfort her. She smiles: “Em.”
Then she says: “but I will also work hard. You are so great, I don’t want to be too bad.”
He smiles at her serious words. He strokes her head.
At night 6.30 pm. After the dinner.
Jing Bo Yuan tells Ye Qing Xin that tomorrow he will go place that far away from home.
It’s not a business trip.
Ye Qing Xin blinks her eyes: “Place that far away from home? Where will you go?”
“T city.”
“…..” Ye Qing Xin is startled. She could guess what is the purpose of his trip. She asks again. “Everything is alright, why are you going to T city?”
He looks at her eyes: “I’ll go to propose a marriage alliance.”
Ye Qing Xin’s face blushes and heart beats quickly.
She lowers her head and doesn’t look at her face.
After a while.
“Then let me go with you.”
Jing Bo Yuan says to her gently: “You are pregnant now. You should stay home and rest well. Tomorrow let Auntie Zhang and Driver Lu to help you move back to Nan Shan mansion.”
He adds, “If you are bored, then let your friend come over to accompany you, or perhaps I can let Suo Suo to come over to accompany you.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles. She asks again: “Then you’ll go alone?”
Jing Bo Yuan answers: “Also My Pa. How can I come to propose marriage without any family member.”
He does this to respect the family members of the female side. With Jing family’s high position, they could just send anyone. No one will complain, but they might look down at the female side. If this happens, Ye Qing Xin might suffer other people’s gossip for whole life.
This is for prevent anyone talks badly about Ye Qing Xin.
Jing Bo Yuan says it. Ye Qing Xin’s eyes turn red. She clutches his hand.
She says: “Thank you.”
Except saying thank you, she doesn’t know what should she say.
He always considers very well. She is moved and touched by his action.
Jing Bo Yuan hugs her and strokes her head: “The thing that everyone has, you also need to have it.”
A marriage alliance proposal, betrothal gifts and money, wedding.
It shows how the male side respects and honors the female side.
The time Jing Bo Yuan is showering, Ye Qing Xin lays down on the sofa and watches TV. After the news there is weather forecast. There will be raining heavily and windy from this night to tomorrow.
Ye Qing Xin frowns and says loudly toward the bathroom: “Bo Yuan, the weather tomorrow is bad. There will rain and big wind. What if you postpone it until two days after?”
After a while, Jing Bo Yuan comes out and looks at the screen. “It’s okay, it’s only rain.”
“But……” Ye Qing Xin is unease, “Can’t you just postpone it for two days. It’s not too rush. Just one or two days.”
Jing Bo Yuan wipes his hair and says: “I already promised your mother about the time. It’s not good to change it.”
“………” Ye Qing Xin is startled. She just remembers that she hasn’t called her mother to tell that she will get married soon. She hugs him: “When did you call my Ma?”
Jing Bo Yuan puts down hi towel and raises up her chin. He kisses her lips: “This mid-afternoon.”
He says it and pats her face. “Go have a shower and sleep. It’s late.”
The time Ye Qing Xin finishes her shower and comes out, Jing Bo Yuan helps her to dry her wet hair. They falls sleep in each other embrace.
Late at night at 10 p.m.
At Yan family residence.
Old Mister Yan and Old Madame Yan are resting. The maids also returns to their own room to rest.
Inside the room, Gu Qiao is nuts: “Ma! Why did you do it? Do you know how much energy that I spent for that…… you ruined it all!”
Huang Wei Juan is unhappy: “What did you I do? Am I wrong? I just wanted to take precautious against that Ye. You are the opposite from what I wish. You are being friend with her. You are someone that invites a wolf into one’s house? You will be happy that two elders divide their a.s.sets for her?”
“Ma! I said to you that I wanted her to get into Jing Yan. I said to you.”
“So you let Yin Pei Pei to cheat and let Xiao Lian to work together with Ye Qing Xin? Huang Wei Juan laughs coldly. If she didn’t eavesdrop of her daughter and Yin Pei Pei’s chat. She wouldn’t know what her daughter’s plan.
Yin Pei Pei is the person-in-charge that let the partic.i.p.ants drew the lots.
“So you planned to let Yin Pei Pei leaked it out. To let others feel jealous, to use their hands to attack Ye Qing Xin?”
Gu Qiao wants Ye Qing Xin to get into Jing Yan.
Huang Wei Juan is so angry: “They are useless. They cannot deal with Ye Qing Xin. At last, I need to show my ability to let the MC to give out the wrong result.”
“Ma!” Gu Qiao is angry: “Do you know that Ye Qing Xin will marry with Jing Bo Yuan? Jing Bo Yuan was on set today. What kind of person he is. You should know it’s not hard for him to find this out? Don’t you feel afraid that he will find this out and attack us for this unfairness?”
Huang Juan Wei is not afraid, she snorts coldly: “Jing Yan is not lower than Bo Wei, you are afraid of him?”
“Ma!” She growls at her mom: “It’s not the main point. The main point I want Ye Qing Xin to get into Jing Yan, can’t you understand me? I want her to get into Jing Yan….”
Huang Juan Wei is more furious. “Are you stupid? Why do you want that girl get inside this company? That elders like her, maybe they will give your position to her. I don’t agree to this. Let me remind you, I will not allow that to happen, do you hear me!”
Huang Juan Wei always thinks about inheritance.
Gu Qiao doesn’t know why but she just cries: “You never understands me!” What she wants not wealth but that man.
She goes out and slams the door. Huang Juan Wei is startled. Her daughter starts to confuse her even more.
Gu Qiao returns to her room. She lays on her stomach on her bed. Less than two months, they will marry each other.
Her phone rings suddenly.
Her phone’s screen shows “Zhao You Jia”‘ s name.
After a while, she wipes her tear. She answers it: “Hi, Tang Ge (Older male cousin).
“Qiao Qiao, are you crying?” That man is worried and cared about her.
Gu Qiao’s tears cannot stop falling down. Her voice is trembling: “They will get marry this sixth october….
“Don’t worry, Qiao Qiao.”
The next day. It’s till raining and sometimes there is thunder.
Ye Qing Xin is eating her breakfast and looking at the gloomy sky. She feels worried. She once again mentioned about her advise last night. She is anxious: “Can’t you go away two days after?”
Jing Bo Yuan smiles: “Don’t worry. In the past, I used to go in business trip even when the weather was bad. It’ll be okay.”
Ye Qing Xin cannot agree with him: “It’s only a day or two later.”
Jing Bo Yuan looks at her eyes: “I shouldn’t be stopped to marry you regardless the wind or rain.”
Ye Qing Xin: “……”
She wants to send him off by following him downstairs.
Jing Bo Yuan kisses her: “Go back.”
Ye Qing Xin hugs him.
“Can’t I send you off by following downstairs?’
He doesn’t say anything and just holds her hand. They go downstairs by elevator.
Jing Bo Yuan presses the b.u.t.ton.
“You don’t go to parking area?”
“The car is at the lobby.”
Outside the lobby, there is a luxurious large bus.
Ye Qing Xin follows him out. It’s cold that she couldn’t help but to shiver.
“Your car?”
“Go back.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and asks again: “Where is your car?”
Without his response, someone gets off the car and brings large dark umbrella toward her.
“This is my new car. I never used this. This one is just being completed. It’ll be very comfortable to bring your mother. She will not be tired.
This is caravan. Ye Qing Xin has heard of it. She never saw one before.
It’s like a luxurious bus.
“Since it’s comfortable, can I follow you?” Ye Qing Xin’s eyes turn bright. It’s been a long time since she came home. She wants to go and take a look.
Jing Bo Yuan says: “No, you are pregnant now.”
“Didn’t you say that it’ll not make my Ma feel tired? It will not be tired for me too.”
Jing Bo Yuan insists that she shouldn’t follow him. Ye Qing Xin smiles and moves closer to him: “You are loving me so dearly?”
Jing Bo Yuan just looks at her lovingly.
Ye Qing Xin asks him: “Is Bo Fu (Uncle) on the car? I want to greet him.”
Jing Bo Yuan says: “No, later on I will pick him out. It’s cold outside. Go back.”
Ye Qing Xin goes inside and looks at him leaving through the gla.s.s window.
They will leave each other at least for four days.
At 04.00 pm.
Ye Qing Xin answers Jing Bo Yuan’s call while she is sleeping on the sofa.
He informs her that he is okay and already pa.s.ses the rainfall area. He is safe.
Ye Qing Xin watches the window, it’s still raining outside. She is happy that he is okay.
05.00 pm.
Ye Qing Xin gets an unknown call. The caller is Connie. She wants to ask her to join Pear studio.
Ye Qing Xin is surprised.
She knows Connie. She is the founder of Pear studio. She is happy. She doesn’t believe of this chance.
