Wen Pintang stood in the same place and saw Ying Qingcang take Xin Qing away.
“Uncle?” Chengcheng nudged him and said: “My mom’s wheelchair!”
Withdrawing his eyes from Xin Qing, Wen Pintang bowed his head and said: “I’ll help you bring the wheelchair downstairs.”
“Thank you!” Chengcheng pushed the wheelchair and walked away.
Lin Musheng frowned and stood up. “Are you going to leave with Wan Qingsi?”
“Yeah, go ahead if you’re busy.” Ah Sha could see that he was quite anxious.
“OK, I’m leaving.” Lin Musheng strode out. At the door, he returned and walked to Zheng Gege on the other side of the scene.
Ah Sha saw that Zheng Gege was taken away by Lin Musheng, lifting the corner of her mouth and wondering if there was real chemistry between these two people.
A figure blocked her sight, and before she knew what happened, she had been half picked up by someone off the sofa.
“Tell me how would I punish you?” Wan Qingsi pressed Ah Sha against the wall of bathroom. “How dare you be so scantily clad?”
Ah Sha pouted and said: “Scantily clad? All of formal dresses are the way they are.”
Wan Qingsi frowned and squatted down, picking up her dress. “You are really bold to wear such high-heeled shoes. Aren’t you afraid of ankle sprain?” He grabbed Ah Sha’s ankle and Ah Sha held his shoulders, saying: “I can hardly stand!”
Taking off the shoes of horrible height, Wan Qingsi made her turned round and said: “Now you can stand still, and let me tell you if you are scantily clad.”
“Yah…” Ah Sha tended to stay her waist away from Wan Qingsi. “Itchy!”
The dress was designed to make her entire back exposed down to the waist. Wan Qingsi was nibbling and sucking her back along the graceful figure, producing the thickly dotted hickeys.
“Don’t dress like this anymore, got it? Otherwise, just like this!” He picked her up and went to the mirror. Ah Sha turned to see the red-and-green marks on her back, frowned and complained: “No! So ugly.”
Wan Qingsi nodded and said: “Well, I’ll practice a lot and produce a flower next time.”
Outside, there was someone telling Ying Xin that Wan Qingsi went to the bathroom. Obviously, it was looking forward to what would happen.
“b.i.t.c.h! She actually seduced a man to do that with her in a public place.” Ying Xin rushed to the bathroom so angrily that she did not pay attention to water on the floor and then stepped on it. She screamed and there was someone aside stretching out an arm the moment she was falling down.
“Be careful!” A pleasant male voice sounded over her head, and Ying Xin was held in arms and leaned against a warm chest.
She looked up and saw a pair of clear eyes. It was a young man, with elegant facial features and pleasing temperament.
“Thank you!” She stood still, with hands in her chest.
The man smiled and took a step back. “Miss Ying, be careful. There are steps, and it’s a ha.s.sle to have a fall!”
“Do you know me?” After saying that, Ying Xin covered her mouth and called herself an idiot.
“It’s her engagement party today. No guest here couldn’t know her.”
Sure enough, the man smiled and said: “Miss Ying is so cute. Today you are the protagonist, and no one here doesn’t know you!”
“Ha-ha!” She felt ashamed and smiled. Ying Xin was about to say something when he saw Wan Qingsi went out of the bathroom with Ah Sha in his arms. Ah Sha’s lips were red and swollen, with shyness in her eyes. Ying Xin could see what they had done just now.
“Brother Xunxun!” Ying Xin could not help but show her grievance in her voice. “Does he like Mei Jing so much? He even doesn’t tend to restrain oneself.”
The man in front of them turned round and became stunned to see Wan Qingsi and Mei Jing. Then he nodded at Ying Xin and left.
“Drive carefully.” Wan Qingsi was still holding a pair of shoes in his hand. “Don’t wear them, walk along the carpet, and ask the waiter to stop the car at the gate.”
Ah Sha took over the shoes and whispered in his ear. “When you come back, buy me something delicious to eat!”
“Okay!” Wan Qingsi gently nodded.
After seeing Ah Sha off, Ying Xin got closer to Wan Qingsi: “Brother Xunxun, we are engaged now. Even if you hate to part with her temporarily, don’t stay too close to her in public, otherwise I will lose face.”
“You’re not angry?” Wan Qingsi glared at her. Ying Xin smiled at him with the moderate sadness in her eyes. It was an expression that made a man feel sorry and guilty most.
“Not angry but somewhat jealous!” She snorted. “When I was away, she attracted your attention.”
Wan Qingsi responded with a sneer. “All right, let’s go!”
At the gate of the hotel, Ying Xin looked at Wan Qingsi unbelievably. “Take… take a taxi back?”
“My car broke down on the way here, and it has been towed and repaired.” Wan Qingsi said casually.
His car had been driven away by Ah Sha.
“But… but I am dressed this way. It is not a good idea to take a taxi!” Ying Xin looked at her skirt, in evident embarra.s.sment. She was complaining how humiliating taking a taxi was.
A BMW stopped in front of them and then the window was down. Tang Yue smiled and greeted them: “Brother Wan, what’s wrong with you?”
“Brother Xunxun’s car broke down!” Ying Xin quickly replied.
Wen Pinyu stuck his head out and looked at Wan Qingsi with sarcasm. “If you don’t mind, I can drive you back?”
“Okay!” Ying Xin immediately opened the door and sat in the car. “Brother Xunxun, come up!”
However, Wan Qingsi stepped back and closed the door. “Thanks to Mr. Wen for driving her back to the Ying family.”
“Brother Xunxun?” Ying Xin said anxiously. She had planned to tempt Wan Qingsi to have s.e.x with her tonight. How could he not go back?
“I have something else to do.” Wan Qingsi finished his words and turned to leave.
Tang Yue said with a sigh: “Let’s go, Pinyu!” Then she turned round and looked at Ying Xin with seemingly comforting eyes. “Don’t mind. In fact, Mei Jing is just a subst.i.tute for you, and she even had the same nickname as you.”
Ying Xin was about to thank Tang Yue, when it occurred to her that according to the information, Ying Xin had been indifferent to Tang Yue all the time and rarely talked to her. She was suddenly aware that she shouldn’t have gotten into the car, and she didn’t know if Wan Qingsi would doubt about that.
Seeing that Ying Xin didn’t respond, Tang Yue didn’t mind, sat well with the corner of her mouth raised, and didn’t care for Ying Xin anymore.
Lin Musheng drove directly to the hotel where Wen Pintang lived.
“Wait for me a while. I’m leaving to say a few words to my friend. ”
Zheng Gege nodded and said: “No hurry.”
In the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel, Wen Pintang looked at Lin Musheng who just came in and handed him a gla.s.s of wine. “What’s the matter? Why do you follow me here?”
“Why did you go to the engagement party?” Lin Musheng took the gla.s.s of wine and stared at him.
“Just to visit a friend.” Wen Pintang stayed calm.
“Which friend?” Lin Musheng pressed harder.
The mood became solemn suddenly. After a moment of silence, Wen Pintang said with a sigh: “I actually regret to make friends with you!”
“Pugh, you should be grateful to have me as your friend in the world.” Lin Musheng loosened his tie and said: “Hurry up, who the h.e.l.l did you go there for?”
Wen Pintang looked at him and slowly said: “Xin Qing.”
“Are you crazy?” Lin Musheng had expected that such was the fact, but he still seemed to be struck by lightning to hear what Wen Pintang said personally.
“I just fell in love with a woman.” Wen Pintang said calmly. “Why are you so emotional?”
Lin Musheng laughed and said: “Just fell in love with a woman? That woman is married, and her husband is a big-name man, Ying Qingcang! Is she a common woman?”
“I won’t let her know.” Wen Pintang leaned against the French window. “But… it seems that Ying Qingcang has already found it.”
“Certainly, I could see it, let alone her husband.” Lin Musheng said crossly. “What’s on your mind?”
Wen Pintang stared at the dark sky at the night: “Before I came to S City, I saw her photo and felt that she was just a beautiful woman. Till that rainy day, in the park, I was sitting in the car while she was in a wheelchair.
“You can’t understand my feelings at that time.” Wen Pintang’s eyes gradually turned blank. “It seemed that the whole world became silent and gray. However, her smile was the only thing in my eyes and also the only color.”
Turning round to smile at Lin Musheng, Wen Pintang continued. “At that moment, I finally knew the power of the two words—fate and destiny. You can’t fight it at all, but allow yourself to sink. I also wanted to climb out, so I had a blind date when I was back last time, but I failed.
“Her shadow dug a hole in my heart, and then planted a poisonous seed called Xin Qing inside. Every time I think of her, I would suffer severely from the taste of missing her. Forgetting her will also make me overwhelmed with sorrow.
“Oh!” Wen Pintang smiled bitterly. “So I seized any opportunity to see her. Just one glance could make me thrilled.”
“You know there will be no good result. Ying Qingcang regards her as his life!” Lin Musheng sighed. “You can even have her in an evil way if she is an ordinary woman. However, your enemy is the Ying family. Even if you are ready to risk everything falling out with Ying Qingcang, Xin Qing is not a woman at the mercy of you. The fact that she was able to defend the Ying family for three years at that time, has shown that such a woman is not a little white rabbit.”
“I didn’t think about it.” Wen Pintang looked at him. “I never thought about destroying her happiness. As long as she can keep smiling, I will be always looking at her far away. If one day, the smile on her lips disappeared, then… I will be the man who makes her smile again.”
Wen Pintang walked slowly to the bedroom. “That’s all. I’m going to take a bath, and close the door when you leave!”
“If you want to approach her, there is a way… At least you can be friends afterwards.”
Lin Musheng went out of the hotel with a heavy heart. Before he came to his sense, he heard a vehicle screech to a halt. It was his car that turned around greatly, pa.s.sed him by and drove away.
“Zheng Gege!” Lin Musheng chased after the car for a few steps and found that the car was already gone. “d.a.m.n it, what was the woman going to do?” He stopped a taxi and chased after the car. There was a vehicle Positioning System on his phone, and he found that the car finally stopped at the gate of a hospital.
“She had an acute illness? Or she was going to visit a patient? Neither occasion was abnormal.” Lin Musheng stood at the gate of the hospital, frowning and calling Zheng Gege, but her phone was turned off.
There was nothing he can do but enter the hospital. The nurse on duty said that a woman had just gone to the ICU. Lin Musheng went out of the elevator, and saw Zheng Gege throwing a chair onto a man. Also, there were two women aside, and the younger woman screamed.
“Zheng Gege, you b.i.t.c.h. How dare you strike your own father?!”
