Ye Qing Xin looks at Jing Bo Yuan, who looks so serious listening to the meeting. Ye Qing Xin shows her resentment from her eyes.
But very quickly she just watches his serious expression.
Knock knock knock.
The door is knocked.
Ye Qing Xin just gets off the befd and opens the door. The maid is bringing everything she asks with the tray.
“Thank you.” Ye Qing Xin takes the tray and thanks the maid politely.
The maid bows her waist and says politely: “Da Xiao Jie, you are too polite. This is my duty.”
Ye Qing Xin looks at her and smiles.
She somehow understands why Old Madame Sheng arranges this maid for her during her stay here. This maid is someone that is sensible and knows her place well.
The maid just closes the door and leaves.
Ye Qing Xin puts the tray on the table near the sofa. She drinks the water and turns her body to look at Jing Bo Yuan. She then takes the tea cup and walk toward the table, where Jing Bo Yuan is working.
She puts the coffee table on the table. Jing Bo Yuan looks at her. Ye Qing Xin says: “Drink a bit of tea.”
Jing Bo Yuan drinks the tea. Then Jing Bo Yuan asks her to sleep first.
Ye Qing Xin returns to the bed and gets in the blanket. She reads the book.
The room is quiet. They both do their own things and don’t disturb each other.
The door is knocked once more.
Ye Qing Xin gets off the bed and opens the door.
“Da Xiao Jie, Old Madame asked me to take these midnight snacks for you and Gu Ye.”
There are two bowls of fish porridge and a bowl of fruit salad.
Ye Qing Xin thinks about how sad Old Madame Sheng was this morning about what happend to Yu Qing You. She might not have her own dinner, yet she still considers Ye Qing Xin. Ye Qing Xin is thankful for her car.
The fish porridge is very fresh and sticky.
Ye Qing Xin is done with half of her porridge and Jing Bo Yuan just finishes his video meeting.
“This bowl is yours.” She points at the bowl.
Jing Bo Yuan walks toward her and says: “Don’t eat too much.”
Then he goes to the bathroom to have a shower.
Ye Qing Xin finishes her porridge and eats few bites of fruit salad. Then she goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth.
She knocks on the door twice and opens the door.
Jing Bo Yuan just comes out from the shower room. Ye Qing Xin glances at him and blushes.
Ye Qing Xin brushes her teeth but her gaze cannot help but to be fixed on his body.
Jing Bo Yuan comes over and hugs her.
Jing Bo Yuan put his watch on the shelves near the washing stand before, Ye Qing Xin looks at it. Now it’s not 09:00 p.m yet.
They still have time do do something.
The time she is thinking, that man keeps kissing and sucking her neck.
Ye Qing Xin says nervously: “It’s not good….”
Jing Bo Yuan seems to not listen to her words. Ye Qing Xin just loses herself in their passionate contact. She lets him to hug, kiss, and carry her to the bed.
Suddenly, Jing Bo Yuan’s phone vibrates. He takes and answers his phone. Ye Qing Xin watches him, she thinks that this will end, the time she wants to curl up inside the blanket.
Who knows, Jing Bo Yuan holds the phone with one of his hand, and his other hand is stroking between her legs.
Ye Qing Xin is surprised.
He seems to be so serious and rational. From what she hears from his conversation, he is talking with his subordinate. His subordinate might not expect that his boss are answering his questions, while doing other things.
Since Ye Qing Xin is pregnant, Jing Bo Yan controls himself well. He will not pester her every night. He will just do it every few days. But every time he is gentle and soft.
After a long time.
Jing Bo Yuan hangs up, he just puts his phone back calmly.
Jing Bo Yuan shifts his focus on her. Her breath just turns disorder. She closes her eyes and enjoys it.
When it is done.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t open her eyes, she enjoys the warmness in her body. When she feels that it’s getting colder, she says: “Hug me.”
That man immediately hugs her tightly.
After a moment.
Jing Bo Yuan stands up and helps to clean up both of them. Then he switches off the light and gets on the bed.
Ye Qing Xin is lazy to wear her nightgown again. She just falls asleep in his embrace.
The next day, the sky is grey.
Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan go downstair together. In the living room, there are Old Madame Sheng and Old Mister Sheng. Ye Qing Xin greets both of them politely and asks: Gu Fu and Gu Fu, Biao Ge are gone?”
Because of Yu Qing You’s condition, Old Madame Sheng isn’t feeling well. Her eyes are swollen, she seems to be crying last night. She holds Ye Qing Xin’s hand: “Your Gu Gu and Gu Fu have something to do. They were leaving early morning. Your Biao Ge hasn’t come down.”
Yu Geng Xin goes downstair: “Ye Ye, Nai Nai, Bo Yuan, Xin Xin.” He greets everyone. He keeps on walking to the front door: “I have something to do. I’ll not have breakfast at home.”
“What is so important that you don’t eat your breakfast?” Old Madame Sheng asks him with care.
Yu Geng Xin doesn’t explain, he just smiles at Old Madame Sheng and leaves.
Old Madame Sheng sighs. She strokes Ye Qing Xin’s hand: “Don’t mind him. Let’s have breakfast.”
Old Mister Sheng puts down his newspaper and glasses.
All of them are walking toward the dining room. Ye Qing Xin and Old Madame Sheng walk in the front while holding hands together. Jing Bo Yuan and Old Mister Sheng walk behind both of them.
After the breakfast, Jing Bo Yuan gets a call from the office so he leaves. Old Mister Sheng is sitting on the sofa in the living room and continues to read his newspaper. Old Madame Sheng takes Ye Qing Xin to stroll around the room, where Sheng Wen Jun and Yan Tong used to stay.
The room is neat and still looks like before. There are lots of photos of Sheng Wen Jun and Yan Tong. There is a large of their wedding photo hanging on the wall. On the bed side, there is a photo of a little girl.
Ye Qing Xin looks at the wedding photo.
“Xin Xin, look at this. These are your Papa’s trophies and awards.” Old Madame Sheng takes out a small box. She opens that box.
Old Madame Sheng sounds so proud of her son, she tells Ye Qing Xin of the origin of each trophy. Ye Qing Xin just realizes that Sheng Wen Jun is a top student.
Ye Qing Xin accompanies both elders in their house for the whole day. Sheng Wen Qiong and Yu Wei don’t go home till late night. At night on the dining table, Old Madame Sheng mentions about what Yu Qing You used to do to her. She is sorrowful: “Qing You experiences all of these, should be because she deserves it. It is also our fault. As her seniors, we were spoiling her too much. We made her be undisciplined and out of control. She always does what she wants.”
“I hope that next time, she can be more mature. She will not act childishly. Xin Xin ah, for what Qing You did for you, Nai Nai will not unreasonable request for you to forgive her. It’s just Nai Nai cannot be ruthless and ask for fairness for you. Please don’t blame Nai Nai…..”
“Nai Nai, what are you talking about.” Ye Qing Xin smiles: “For the past, just let it pass. We don’t need to mention it anymore. In the future, we are family. Let’s not be estranged.
Old Madame Sheng is thankful, she holds Ye Qing Xin’s hand. “God kid.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles.
She always be so bright. She has experienced a lot, for some things she has understand.
Old Madame Sheng’s love toward Yu Qing You is just like Old Madame Yan’s love to Gu Qiao. It cannot just disappear. Ye Qing Xin doesn’t beg that her older relatives to only love her and just throw away Yu Qing You or Gu Qiao. They will be seen as inconsistent about their love if they just love her.
She feels it is enough that they care and love her. Moreover, Yu Qing You has received her own punishment. Ye Qing Xin doesn’t need Old Madame Sheng to do anything for her.
After the dinner, Old Madame Sheng takes Ye Qing Xin to the study room. Old Mister Sheng takes out a paper of transfer of property rights from the drawer.
