Inside the car.
“Bo Yuan, what do you think what present should we buy for Xiao Guo?” She asks Jing Bo Yuan: “What about if we take him to buy new clothes?”
Jing Bo Yuan picks a plastic bag from the front pa.s.senger seat and pa.s.ses to Jing Bo Yuan.
Ye Qing Xin takes it: “This is for Xiao Guo?”
Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t deny.
Ye Qing Xin looks at the plastic and sees it’s a children’s watch. The one that can call and has GPS.
“This….”
“In the future you guys can call each other.” Jing Bo Yuan says.
Ye Qing Xin is startled for a while.
It’s not really an expensive present but it’s useful and attentive present.
“Thank you, Bo Yuan.”
Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything.
Ye Qing Xin takes the watch out and puts it the watchband. She reads the manual book, she also puts in her and Jing Bo Yuan’s contact number to an emergency contact list.
Ye Qing Guo is fast in learning how to use it, Ye Qing Xin just needs to teach him twice.
“With this, in the future I can call Jie Jie.” Ye Qing Guo blinks his eyes.
“Em, do you like it.”
“I like it. Thank you Jie Jie. In the future, Xiao Guo wants to call you everyday.” Ye Qing Guo is very happy and keeps on seeing his new watch.
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “You need to thank Jie Fu, Jie Fu is the one that bought it for you.”
Ye Qing Guo hasn’t forgotten Jing Bo Yuan’s serious warning. He raises his head and says to Jing Bo Yuan: “Thank you Jie Fu…….”
The car stops in front a restaurant.
The waiter greets him politely: “Chief Jing.” And brings them to a private room.
Ye Qing Xin is startled when they arrive at the private room.
The private room is designed just like a children’s birthday party. The wall is covered with cartoon poster, balloon.
Ye Qing Guo’s eyes turn bright. He runs inside and smiles so brightly. He takes a look at the balloon. He likes it so much. There is also three-layered cake on the table.
Ye Qing Guo notices the cake is decorated with superman. He loves it so much, he calls Ye Qing Xin: “Jie Jie! Jie Jie! Superman! It’s superman!”
Ye Qing Xin holds Jing Bo Yuan’s hand: “Thank you.”
Jing Bo Yuan pats her hand: “Xiao Guo is also my Di Di.”
Ye Qing Xin is thankful.
Ye Qing Xin watches how Jing Bo Yuan places the nineteen candles on the cake, how he lights it up, how he helps Ye Qing Guo to wear his birthday hat, how he turns off the lights.
In the past for celebrating Ye Qing Guo’s birthday, Ye Qin Guo just sits down on the table and asks Ye Qing Xin to sing happy birthday to him.
Jing Bo Yuan and Ye Qing Xin sing happy birthday for him. Then Ye Qing Guo closes his eyes to make a wish then opens his eyes to blow the candles.
“Xiao Guo, what is your wish?” Ye Qing Xin asks.
Jing Bo Yuan stands up and turns on the light.
“Jie Jie didn’t you say that if someone says his wish, then it’ll not work?” Ye Qing Guo pouts. “I will not tell you.”
Ye Qing Xin laughs.
After a while. Ye Qing Guo cannot control himself: “Jie Jie, before Xiao Guo wished two things. First, Xiao Guo hopes to eat a lot lot of chocolates also…. one more…. em, Xiao Guo hopes that Jie Jie’s babies can come out faster so Xiao Guo can play with them.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “If babies come out and want to your chocolate, then what should we do?”
“Ah?” Ye Qing Guo frowns. He didn’t expect this. He frowns. His face looks like he is in pain: “Then I will give little babies to bite a small bite…:
Ye Qing Xin smiles and strokes Ye Qing Guo’s head: “In the future Xiao Guo will be Jiu Jiu (Uncle), Xiao Guo needs to grow up quickly, if not how can you play with babies?”
“Jie Jie, how to grow up?”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know how to explain to her. She just says: “Till the time Xiao Guo doesn’t like to eat chocolate again.”
Ye Qing Guo’s face just breaks down. “Then I don’t want to grow up.”
Ye Qing Xin: “…..”
After the dinner.
Three of them come out the private room. Just in time they b.u.mp into a group of people. Those people notice Jing Bo Yuan and come toward him to greet him. Ye Qing Xin is beside him, while Ye Qing Guo suddenly runs back toward the private room.
All of them looks at Ye Qing Xin. Some of them recognize her, while some don’t.
Jing Bo Yuan introduces her to everyone: “This is my wife.”
All of them then greet her: “Jing Tai Tai.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles.
This time.
Ye Qing Guo comes out with a cat figurine on his hold. He walks toward Ye Qing Xin and says directly: “Jie Jie, Xiao Guo wants to pee.”
The atmosphere turns awkward. Ye Qing Xin notices that people’s gaze are changing.
She smiles and says: “This is my Di Di. I’m sorry. Excuse me.” She turns her head and looks at Ye Qing Guo: “Say goodbye to Shu Shu and A Yi.”
Ye Qing Guo waves goodbye. “Shu Shu A Yi, goodbye.”
Ye Qing Xin looks at the cat figurine on Ye Qing Guo’s hold: “Can you take this?”
Ye Qing Guo hides it behind her back: “Jie Jie…”
Ye Qing Xin turns serious: “What Jie Jie said to you before, do you forget about it?”
“No.” Ye Qing Guo pouts: “Jie Jie said that Xiao Guo cannot take something that it’s not mine.” He looks at Ye Qing Xin: “Just one…”
Ye Qing Xin looks at him and says nothing.
The waiter looks at Jing Bo Yuan and says to Ye Qing Xin: “It’s okay Jing Tai Tai. These one is part of the decoration, we will throw it anyway. Xiao Di Di is the birthday boy, he can take it.”
Ye Qing Xin ignores the waiter and looks at Ye Qing Guo.
Ye Qing Guo returns cat figurine to the waiter. He says politely: “Thank you, but Jie Jie said what is not mine, I cannot take it. If I take it, it means that I steal it. I can be poor, stupid but I cannot be a thief.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and holds his hand. “Jie Jie takes you to the restroom.”
“Jing Tai Tai is really good at teaching kids. Chief Jing, you don’t need to worry about teaching kids.”
Someone tries to break the silence. The atmosphere turns realized.
Jing Bo Yuan ignores them and watches both sister and brother. “I have things to do, I’ll go first.” Jing Bo Yuan follows Ye Qing Xin.
“Okay…..”
When Jing Bo Yuan is gone, those people walk toward the elevator.
“With Chief Jing’s position, it’s unexpected that he has that idiot brother-in-law. It’s really….. Chief Jing doesn’t feel shame about it, he takes him out.”
“He should want to win his woman’s heart.”
“I heard that Jing Tai Tai comes from poor family, Chief Jing just wanted to play around with her. It’s unexpected that they turn serious.”
“This Jing Tai Tai is young but her trick is good. There is rumor that she cannot conceiver right? But she can win over both daughters of Sheng and Yan family, she seems to really control Chief Jing’s heart.”
“You men should like pure beautiful man right?”
Someone is honest: “We just like to play around. If it’s me, I’ll not marry. I’ll marry a virtuous wife. The one that can help us in business. If she has nothing, what’s the point of marry her? To wash cook and service us? It’s better to look for maid? Haha…”
They seem to only respect Ye Qing Xin because of Jing Bo Yuan. Behind his back…. they don’t respect Ye Qing Xin.
Ye Qing Xin really has a poor background.
On the other side.
Ye Qing Xin is waiting outside for Ye Qing Guo.
Ye Qing Guo goes inside the restroom alone. He just gets in and after a while: “Ah!”
“Xiao Guo, what happened?” Ye Qing Xin is worried.
“Jie Jie, my leg, it’s painful…”
“Is there anyone inside?”
“No, Jie Jie, it’s really painful!”
Ye Qing Xin wants to go inside.
But she is stopped.
“Wait outside.”
Jing Bo Yuan goes inside the restroom.
Around three minutes, he comes out with Ye Qing Guo. He holds Ye Qing Guo’s arm. Ye Qing Guo’s eyes are red.
“Jie Jie….”
“Is it really hurt? Why are you so careless?”
“The restroom is just being cleaned, it’s a bit slippery.”
They both go the hospital. It’s just a minor injury.
“Next time be more careful okay?”
Ye Qing Guo says: “I didn’t do it in purpose. It’s the floor, it’s too slippery…..”
“You are still blaming the floor. What did Jie Jie say to you. You should look for your own mistake, don’t blame it on others, how can others not fall down then?” Ye Qing Xin glares.
“Jie Jie is unreasonable, it’s not because of me…”
Jing Bo Yuan looks at him calmly. Ye Qing Guo feels threatened so he just shuts up.
After half an hour, Jing Bo Yuan says: “Let’s go home.”
He stands up and holds Ye Qing Guo to stand up.
Three of them walk toward the parking area. Suddenly Jing Bo Yuan’s phone rings.
He answers it and hears happy voice: “A Yuan, Old Madame wakes up. She wants to meet her granddaughter-in-law. Bring her here…..”
