Chapter 135

Ye Qing Xin follows Gu Qiao up. She doesn’t hear the elders’ chat.

Ye Qing Xin takes away her hand, Gu Qiao doesn’t mind it. She just goes to the study room based on her memory. She chats with her: “I already come here so many time with Ye Ye and Nai Nai, but I am not familiar with the house. There’re a lots of room here. I don’t know if I can find the study room....”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t say anything and just follows her silently. After walking after a w while, Gu Qiao stops at wine red wood door. “It should be this room.”

She talks to herself and knocks.

After a while, there’s a man’s voice: “Get in.”

It seems to be Jing Bo Yuan’s voice.

Gu Qiao smiles and turns her head to Ye Qing Xin: “Let’s get in.” She opens the door and she acts like she is the host and Ye Qing Xin is the guest.

Old Mister JIng and Old Mister Sheng are playing as a group, and Old Madame Yan and Jing Zong is another group. Jing Bo Yuan is sitting down and reading a French book.

The room is quiet. Everyone is busy with their own task.

Gu Qiao nods at Jing Bo Yuan as her way to greet him. Then she goes to Old Mister Yan’s side.

Ye Qing Xin walks toward the Jing Bo Yuan.

“What are you reading?” Ye Qing Xin asks.

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her. She is wearing a simple white t-shirt and jeans. She is wearing a pink slipper. She looks charming and cute.

“Notre-Dame de Paris.” Jing Bo Yuan closes the book and places it on the table.

She has read that book in Chinese.

Jing Bo Yuan asks her: “Have you read that book?”

His appearance changes, he acts like a teacher that grills students.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know why but she remembers the Dream of the Red Chamber. The first time Lin Dai Yu entered the palace, Mother Gu asked her about the books that she has rread.

She lowers and smiles. She uses her most serious face and replies: “I just read >.

Jing Bo Yuan is slightly startled and looks at her serious face closely. He could notice clearly that she is playing a mischievous prank at her. He couldn’t help but to laugh. He clutches her hand, he smiles: “You are cheeky.”

His tone is somewhat helpless but also there’s a spoiling tone.

Gu Qiao watches their interaction.

People might sees that she is watching the chess game, but actually she is watching both of them.

Their voices are the only things that bring the liveliness in the room. She feels the pain in her heart.

She extends he hand and takes the tea pot. She stands up to pour them tea.

When she is done with only Old MisterJing and Old Mister Sheng. The tea pot is empty. Gu Qiao smiles: “Ye Ye and Jing Shu Shu (Uncle Jing) you need to wait for a while, I’ll take another pot of tea.”

Old Mister Yan is thinking his step in the game, he doesn’t hear her, Jing Zong hears it and says: “Sorry to trouble you.”

“Jing Shu Shu, you are too modest. I should do this.”

Gu Qiao takes the tea pot and wants to go out.

Jing Bo Yuan looks at Gu Qiao and pats Ye Qing Xin’s hand. He says indifferently. “How can you let the guest to take the tea. Xin Xin, you go and do it.”

If someone hears it, maybe there’s no big problem. It’s normal, but for Gu Qiao, it clearly show that Gu Qiao is a presumptuous guest usurps the role of the host.

It is also his way to tell her that Ye Qing Xin is the host of the house and she is just a guest.

She doesn’t know why but she always feels........ Jing Bo Yuan is warning her.

Gu Qiao just stays still and tighten her hold of the pot.

Ye Qing Xin also thinks that she should be the one that pours the tea, but Gu Qiao already did it so she just let it be. It’s too avoid any sudden disruption.

With Jing Bo Yuan’s word now. She hurriedly takes the pot from Gu Qiao’s hand. “Qiao Qiao Jie, just sit down. I’ll take the tea.”

Gu Qiao smiles and tries to maintain her composure. She looks very comfortable. “Okay.”

Around ten minutes.

Ye Qing Xin comes back inside the room with tea pot and also a similar cup of tea. She fills each of their cups, and passes the cup that she brought to Gu Qiao.

Jing Bo Yuan is satisfied with her manner.

After a while.

Old Madame Sheng and Yan calls out of each of their husband to go home.

Old Mister Sheng and Yan still want to play another around, they are reluctant to call it quit. They hesitate for a while, then stands up.

Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan sends them out.

Gu Qiao drives the car, she could see the romantic couple from the rear-viewed mirror. The time the car takes the turn, both of them disappear from her view.

She have known Jing Bo Yuan since ten years. That time she was afraid of this unapproachable man. But afterwards, she doesn’t know clearly when, she starts to admire him.

She has ever thought about approaching her, but she admires and feels terrified of him at the same time.

He seems to always can easily recognize her attempt.

Just like this night, at first she wanted to use the chance to pour the tea to get close to him. But who knows, when she was about to take action, his few words attacked her plan, he also saw her as a presumptuous guest that wants to supersedes.

This moment she feels like a clown.

“Qiao Qiao!” Old Madame Yan suddenly cries out.

Gu Qiao suddenly regains herself. She looks at in front. Her car closes at hand the other car’s end. She slams the brake on.

“Citt—! The car stops in time.

Old Madame Yan and Old Mister Ye are sitting on the back. They are stupefied.

After a while, Old Madame Yan blames her: “Qiao Qiao, what are you thinking about? It’s so dangerous?” She says it, then her tone changes into concern: “Are you okay?”

Gu Qiao turns her back and her eyes are teary: “I’m okay, Nai Nai.”

After the guests go home, Old Madame Jing shifts her attention to Ye Qing Xin: “Xin Xin, I heard from Xiao Zhang, you moved out?”

Xiao Zhang is Auntie Zhang.

“Everything is perfect, how could you move out? How could both of you live separately? It’s not good not good. Later hurry up and move back.”

Ye Qing Xin: “....”

Jing Bo Yuan speaks up: “No need to worry. I will move out too with her. We just change the place we live.”

Ye Qing Xin: “......”

Old Madame Jing is happy to hear it, she smiles: “Then it’s good. I just want to say. A Yuan is not young anymore, he should have kids right now. If you already have it, Nai Nai will immediately hold the wedding for you. I promise it’ll be impressive. O hehe... Last night I had a dream. I dreamt about my baby great grandson is already inside our Xin Xin’s belly....”

She says it and stretches her hand to rub Ye Qing Xin’s belly. She pretends to be serious: “My good chong sun sun (great grandson), I am your tai nai nai (great grandma).”

Ye Qing Xin: “.........”

At last Jing Bo Yuan helps out Ye Qing Xin out of Old Madame Jing’s “claws”, he says to Old Madame Jing: “We will go home first.”

Old Madame Jing doesn’t agree: “Tonight just stay here. Just stay in your room, I have changed your bed to a new one.”

Jing Bo Yuan says calmly: “No need. It’s inconvenient to stay here.”

His words make people can have a different impression, Old Madame Jing understands and laughs: “Okay okay, okay. Then you guys can go back.”

Ye Qing Xin: “......”

On the way home, Ye Qing Xin thinks about Jing Bo Yuan’s words that he will move in with her. Although she knows his intention from the start, but hearing it out loud makes her want to reject the idea.

She ponders on it and says: “Aren’t you living well in Nan Shan? Why do you... want to move in with me?’

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything, he just places his hand on her thigh. She could feel the warmth of his hand even though it is on her jeans.

His fingers massage her thigh. It makes her itchy, it’s somehow shady and indecent. Her focus shifts on his finger’s movement.

She pushes his hand away, but he just holds her hand.

Ye Qing Xin watches his expression.

She purses her lips and looks at the window.

After a while, she starts to break the atmosphere: “Tonight I seem to not see San Shu...”

Jing Bo Yuan says: “San Shu is on business trip.”

Ye Qing Xin nods: “Ye Ye really likes to play chess?”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her: “Didn’t you see it before.”

Ye Qing Xin: “......”

They arrive at Ye Qing Xin’s apartment at ten o’clock. It’s so quiet.

They take the elevator to go up. The time elevator door is opened, there’s He Ji Fan stands outside the elevator. His right face shows five line of scratch mark. There’s also scratch mark on his adam apple.

Ye Qing Xin is startled.

He Ji Fan is also startled to see them. He acts awkwardly.

Jing Bo Yuan acts normally. He glances at him and says: “You are going home?”

He Ji Fan nods and moves to the side to wait for them to go out. Then he gets inside. He seems to not want to wait for another second.

The time they are about to go inside the apartment, Ye Qing Xin glances at Dou Weir’s door. She hesitates whether she needs to visit and ask Dou Weir.

Jing Bo Yuan notices her thought and he hugs her waist and takes her inside. “No need to mind too much about other people’s problem.”

Ye Qing Xin hesitates: “Are they fighting? I am worried that Weir will suffer the loss.”

Jing Bo Yuan unbuckles his watch and places it on the table. He pulls her to sit down on his thigh. He smiles at her: “You saw the scratch scar on He Ji Fan’s face. It’s not certain who suffer the loss.”

Ye Qing Xin thinks about it. That’s right, Dou Weir is not someone can suffer the loss easily.

The time she thinks about this, Jing Bo Yuan just uses his hands to lift ups the hem of her shirt. His hot hand strokes her skin. Ye Qing Xin blushes and wants to push his hand away. But it’s too late, her bra clasp is already being unbuckled by someone.

The hot kisses fall on her body.

That moment, Ye Qing Xin wants to break free, but she in an instant falls apart.

They kiss for a long time, then Jing Bo Yuan wants to undo her trousers button.

Ye Qing Xin stops him and whispers: “I haven’t showered......”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything and carries her up. He takes her to the bathroom.

After the shower, Ye Qing Xin feels so tired and she goes to sleep.

She sleeps so soundly because that day she didn’t have an afternoon nap and also she was tormented by him.

Jing Bo Yuan notices her hair is still wet when she sleeps. He takes a dry towel and dries it for her. When he is done, he switches off the light and sleeps with her.

In the midnight, Ye Qing Xin feels a phone is vibrating.

In her daze, she feels the man that hugs her, switches on the light.

“Hi.”

The man sits up and covers her up with the blanket.

That night is so silent, she could hear faintly that Jing Bo Yuan is talking with a woman.

Ye Qing Xin tries to listen and pay attention, but the voice is so faint. She couldn’t hear it clearly.

Jing Bo Yuan says calmly; “Em, I’m getting ready to marry.”

There’s a reply from the woman caller and Jing Bo Yuan just replies: “Thank you.”

He ends the call. Ye Qing Xin pretends to flip her body and rubs her eyes “Who is that? Who is calling this late night?”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her.

That woman may not notice that she is so sexy right now. Jing Bo Yuan puts his phone away and presses her down to the bed.

Ye Qing Xin is stupefied. He just gets in directly and she doesn’t respond.

The time she feels asleep, she already forgets about her question.

The next day when she wakes up, Jing Bo Yuan is not in the room anymore. The room is full of sunlight. Ye Qing Xin gets up and wears her clothes.

The time she comes out, she could smell delicious food.

Ye Qing Xin goes to the kitchen and sees Auntie Zhang with her apron on. She is surprised: “Auntie Zhang?”

Auntie Zhang is frying a bacon. She smiles at her: “Ms Ye, good morning.”

Ye Qing Xin: “Why are you here?”

Auntie Zhang: “Mister asked me to come here to cook for you. In the future, just hand me over your three meals a day. Go and wash your face. I’ll be done soon.”

“Did he eat breakfast before?”

Auntie Zhang: “He did, I prepared him a hot milk and simple sandwich. He should eat breakfast, he sometimes forgets to eat lunch.”

Ye Qing Xin nods and doesn’t say anything else. She goes to the restroom and washes up.

The time she comes out of the room, the breakfast is ready. She looks at a table full of rich breakfast dishes. She think that she couldn’t finish it so she calls Dou Weir.

After a while, Dou Weir knocks on her door. Ye Qing Xin opens the door. Dou Weir is yawning and gets inside: “You are so interesting, this early morning you get up and do breakfast....”

She then notices Auntie Zhang and be surprised: “Auntie Zhang? Why are you ..”

Last time the time she stayed in Nan Shan mansion for a night, she met Auntie Zhang.

Ye Qing Xin smiles and doesn’t explain.

Dou Weir looks at Ye Qing Xin’s happy and blushing face and she immediately understands. She ridicules her: “Your Big Boss Jing is really good for you. He is afraid that you will starve to death.”

Ye Qing Xin smiles and attacks her back: “Your Mr He is also very good. Last late night he came over to let you polish your nail.”

Mentioning He Ji Fan makes Dou Weir’s face changes: “Are you my best friend? If you are then don’t mention him again in front of me, or I’ll break off relation with you!”

Ye Qing Xin smiles: “I think you are not suffering any loss. Last night I was worried about you and I wanted to go visit. Luckily I didn’t go over, if not I will be snubbed.”

Ye Qing Xin then looks at Auntie Zhang: “Auntie Zhang, have you eaten yet? If you haven’t, let’s eat together.”

Auntie Zhang is busy about something, she just says: “You guys can eat. No need to mind me. Don’t worry.”

After the breakfast, Dou Weir goes back to her apartment. Before she goes away, she goes to the kitchen and praises Auntie Zhang’s cooking skills. She makes Auntie Zhang so happy that she asks her to come by during the lunch time too.

Ye Qing Xin is happy to see Dou Weir in good mood.

At four o’clock in the afternoon, she receives a call from Jing Bo Yuan. He says that he will have business dinner so he will be home late.

Ye Qing Xin is also busy with her works so she just says “em.”

Around eight o’clock, she is still busy inside her working room. Then suddenly she hears a “bang” door sound in the next door. She is surprised.

She puts down her things and goes to the door. She opens the door and notices there’s He Ji Fan standing in front of the door. He takes out his cigarette to smoke.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know why, but she could notice a lonely and helpless feeling from him.

He Ji Fan seems to notice her gaze, he turns her head and looks at her. He walks toward her.

He says to her: “Do you have time to chat?”

Ye Qing Xin has met him for several times and she understands his personality as “playboy”. Hearing his words makes her be alerted. But the time she thinks over about it. She is related with Jing Bo Yuan, as Jing Bo Yuan’s good friend, he will not do anything bad to her.

He Ji Fan can notice her precautions thinking, he says: “Don’t worry, you should not covet your friend’s wife. Moreover, I don’t have that kind of intention, ” He asks again: “Can we chat?”
