Chapter 96
Jing Bo Yuan hangs up and raises his head to look at the woman, who keeps on watching him.
The room is quite dark, but that woman’s white skin really shines under his gaze. She is so beautiful.
Jing Bo Yuan’s gaze turns gentle: “Why aren’t you going to sleep?’
Ye Qing Xin watches him and just purses her lips. She doesn’t talk.
Now it’s already almost ten o’clock. That woman shouldn’t be an ordinary one to call him at this time.
Based on what she heard before, that woman decides to go back to grow, she is somewhat hesitant and asked for his advise.
A woman that wants to go back and repeatedly asks for Jing Bo Yuan. Ye Qing Xin feels that Xiao Lian should be a single woman.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t say anything about it and just says goodnight and returns to her room.
The time she leaves, Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t go to sleep. He also doesn’t go back to work. He just tries to push his wheelchair to the balcony and smokes.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t sleep for a whole night, she keeps on thinking of that woman, who called Jing Bo Yuan last night.
The consequence of having no sleep is she cannot concentrate well for her cla.s.s.
On the contrary Jing Suo Suo seems to be so serious and concentrated with the lesson. She raises her hand several time to ask question, even her professor is impressed and complimenting her.
After the cla.s.s.
Dou Weir notices Ye Qing Xin’s black eyes: “You guys should take a rest last night. Look at your face. You are so ruined.:
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t want to argue with her, she just closes her eyes and be silent.
“What is it? You are not in a good mood? You seem to be depressed, what is it? Was it because Big Boss Jing not satisfy you enough? Ahyoo, you need to be understanding about this. After all, his leg is hurt…..”
At the beginning, when she knew that Ye Qing Xin will move to Nan Shan mansion to take care of Jing Bo Yuan, she wanted to persuade her. But after she thought about it carefully. In this era, this should be common, so she didn’t say anything else.
If it’s her, she will just move willingly by herself without any maid helps.
Ye Qing Xin notices that Dou Weir’s words starts to be more irregular, she lifts her eyes and looks at her: “What are you saying? We sleep in separate room. Nothing is going on.”
Dou Weir screams: “What? You haven’t slept together? Is Big Boss Jing faulty?”
How can he control himself? Most men will not able to control himself. “Is Our Big Boss Jing disable in that part?”
Ye Qing Xin rolls her eyes and pokes Dou Weir’s head: “What are you thinking? I stay there to take care of her, I’m not accompanying him to sleep.”
Dou Weir pouts: “But you guys are dating. A single woman and man live in a same house, you love each other. Shouldn’t they hardly control themselves? It’s normal if something happens. It’s abnormal if nothing happens.”
“You seems so expert in this.”
They both walk to the parking area to get their own bicycle.
They both cycle their bike side by side.
Ye Qing Xin remembers Jing Bo Yuan’s call and hesitates. She asks Dou Weir. “Tell me, if your boyfriend gets a call from a woman at ten o’clock. He said that probably about her want to come back home from abroad to build business here. She is asking your boyfriend opinion? Do you think it’s normal or not?”
Dou Weir answers relaxedly: “it’s normal.”
Ye Qing Xin is startled ans says: “you don’t think that it’s a bit inappropriate for a woman calls your boyfriend at late night?”
Dou Weir glances at Ye Qing Xin: “You usually so clever, how can now you are so muddle-headed. Tell me it’s your Big Boss Jing right? I guess that woman should his friend. Who is Big Boss Jing? He stands at the top of business pyramid. As they say, the higher a person is, he can look more throughly at everything. If I have a friend like him, of course I’ll ask him for his opinion.”
“Moreover, they talked about coming back home to build business. She supposedly is abroad. Maybe she’s not aware of the time difference. If it’s night here, in USA should be morning right? So it’s normal to call an ordinary friend at the morning? Could it be that you hope that woman calls Jing Bo Yuan at night, while she is wearing her lingerie and on her bed?”
It’s reasonable.
But.
Ye Qing Xin remembers that Xiao Lian also called Jing Bo Yuan one time at the afternoon. If it’s like what Dou Weir’s said didn’t it mean that her last call before this should be in midnight?”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t say about this.
Dou Weir says again “Though that woman has feeling or plans for our Big Boss Jing, you shouldn’t be worried about it. You know clearly his feeling and caring toward you. Also a man in high position like your Big Boss ing, a lot of women are willing to be with him. You, you just need to hold on his heart and sit steadily on your empress position. Actually you don’t need to think too much about it…….”
They say goodbye to each other in front of the dining hall.
Dining hall is close to the B university main gate.
Ye Qing Xin parks her bike and goes to the B university main gate to get inside the car. She sits on the backseat.
Driver Lu drives the car and says: “Old Madame Jing and Old Mister Jing come over to the house.”
Ye Qing Xin nods.
After a while, she suddenly asks Driver Lu: “Driver Lu, do you know what Jing Ye Ye and Jing Nai Nai like?”
Ye Qing Xin heard previously that Driver Lu used to be both Old Madame Jing and Old Mister Jing’s driver. But then Jing Bo Yuan wants to move out so Old Mister Jing asks him to drive his grandson.
Perhaps Driver Lu knows both of their hobby.
Driver Lu says: “Ms Ye, do you want to buy gift for them? I heard from Lao Li that Old Mister Jing lost one of his chinese chess piece, he is going to buy another one after the lunch.”
Lao Li is the current driver of Old Madame and Old Mister Jing.
Ye Qing Xin: “Jing Ye Ye really loves to play chinese chess?
Driver Lu: “Em, the time he is free, he will find someone to play. If he couldn’t find anyone, he will play alone.”
Ye Qing Xin: “Jing Ye Ye’s chess should be very expensive one right?” For example from ivory, jade, amber……
Driver Lu shakes his head: “Old Mister never buys anything luxurious. He is very simple. For chess piece, he only wants the happiness of playing the chess. He doesn’t care about the price.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and doesn’t expect that the cold elder could be so simple.
“What about Jing Nai Nai?”
Driver Lu thinks about it: “Old Madame Jing likes to eat Durian.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Thank you Driver Lu. Let’s go to the department store before we go home.”
Driver Lu mentions something that Ye Qing Xin can do and spend the money to buy. Ye Qing Xin understands his good intention.
Driver Lu nods and doesn’t say anything. He just drives to the department store.
From his advice, Ye Qing Xin chooses a set of Chinese chess and a durian.
The time she returns it’s already twelve thirty.
Ye Qing Xin changes her shoes to her slipper and goes to the living room. Old Mister Jing and Old Madame Jing are sitting down on the sofa and watching television. Old Madame Jing is eating a durian.
Honestly, Ye Qing Xin doesn’t fond of that smell but she doesn’t repel it too.
Auntie Zhang notices her and immediately greets her: “Ms Ye, you are back.”
Old Madame Jing hears it and looks at Ye Qing Xin. Her eyes turn bright and put downs her plate. She stands up and says to her: “Xin Xin, you are home. You should be hungry right? Let’s go, let’s have lunch together.”
She says it and pinches Ye Qing Xin’s arm lightly: “Look at you, you are too skinny. This period of time you should be suffering! Grandma has cooked a lot of good things for you.”
Ye Qing Xin feels somewhat unadaptable for her friendliness. But she smiles and pa.s.ses the plastic of durian that she bought before: “I heard from Driver Lu that Nai Nai likes to eat durian so I go to the department store to buy one. I hope you don’t dislike me. Also I bought a set of chinese chess for Ye Ye.”
Old Madame Jing looks at Ye Qing Xin and smiles. She pats her hand: “Good kid, you are so considerate.”
Then she turns her head to see Auntie Zhang: “Give these things to Lao Zhang. Let him to put it inside the car. So we will not forget to bring it home.”
Auntie Zhang obeys her instruction.
Old Mister Jing watches both of them, he could recognize a set of chinese chess from the plastic. He doesn’t say anything but his gaze turns soft.
On the dining table.
Because two elders come over, Auntie Zhang adds several other dishes.
Old Madame Jing pa.s.ses Ye Qing Xin a bowl of jujube and pork chop soup: “This soup is good for a girl, drink more.”
Ye Qing Xin takes it and thanks her.
Old Madame Jing smiles and takes another bowl of different soup to Jing Bo Yuan: “This soup is for A Yuan, he needs to drink a lot of things.”
Ye Qing Xin helps her: “Nai Nai, let me.”
Old Madame Jing laughs and let her do it. “Give him more. I put more herbal medicine in this turtle soup. It’s a recipe from my old doctor. It’s really great. Hehe……”
Ye Qing Xin notices that Old Madame Jing is somewhat weird….. she seems to be so excited.
She pa.s.ses the bowl of soup to Jing Bo Yuan and smiles: “Drink it.”
Old Madame Jing is so happy to look at them, both of them are suitable for each otehr.
Jing Bo Yuan looks at Ye Qing Xin: “Do you think that I need to drink this soup?”
Ye Qing Xin is startled, it’s just a turtle soup. Why he need to ask whether he needs it or not…..”
Ye Qing Xin feels that Jing Bo Yuan is weird today, it’s just a soup, why he should be so weird? She just urges him to drink it: “Nai Nai cares about you, just drink it.”
She thinks that this soup should be for Jing Bo Yuan’s wound recovery.
After the lunch, Old Madame Jing and Old Mister Jing leave.
Ye Qing Xin pushes Jing Bo Yuan back to his room. Then her phone rings.
She takes it out, it’s a call from Mrs Hong.
She looks at him and goes to the room to answer it.
Mrs Hong is happy and says: “Xin Xin, thank you. before I got a call from out housemaid that Yi Bing Ping is gone. I don’t know how should I thank you. If in the future you need some help, please tell me. I will help you with my best. I didn’t expect that you still willing to help me…….”
Ye Qing Xin is somewhat startled.
Previously, she was just an ordinary student, Mrs Hong didn’t mind her. That time Mrs Hong previously didn’t call her to not let her come during the time she took Hong Si Yu back home to her family house. She didn’t mind her. Now she is still a student but because of Jing Bo Yuan, she feels her whole world is changing.
She hangs up and returns to Jing Bo Yuan’s room. Jing Bo Yuan is sitting down on his wheelchair, that is closed to the window. He is wearing a dark blue shirt and he is smoking.
He seems to think about something. Jing Bo Yuan notices her gaze and turns his head over.
Their eyes meet each other.
The next moment, Jing Bo Yuan speaks up: “Go sleep for a while.”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t leave, she gets inside the room and come closer to him.
Jing Bo Yuan twirls his cigarette to turn it off. Ye Qing Xin sits down on his thigh and hugs his neck. Jing Bo Yuan hugs her back. She could feel a part of him turns.
She glares at Jing Bo Yuan, she doesn’t expect that this serious man looks serious while a part of his body changes.
Suddenly she remembers what Dou Weir said to her: “A single man stays with a single woman in a house, they will unable to restrain themselves. So shouldn’t it be normal if something happens? It’s abnormal if nothing happens.
