He Yun Xiao can guess now what is Jing Suo Suo’s intention.
“Jing Suo Suo!” He Yun Xiao is furious.
“Ay, Weir, let me tell you, He Er Ge’s ex-ex-ex-ex girlfriend is underage…”
“Wait! I will take it for you!” He Yun Xiao is so furious that he yells. Everyone is looking at him.
He Yun Xiao signals for the waiter to come over, Jing Suo Suo is not satisfied with that so she says: “Why are you asking the waiter to come over? You have no sincerity. Go and take one for me.”
“…..” He Yun Xiao glares at Jing Suo Suo and stands up.
Jing Suo Suo feels that she wins this match, she smiles like a little fox.
“What makes you so happy?” Cheng Ru Yu comes over to sit down beside Jing Suo Suo. He looks at him with a gentle gaze.
“Cheng Da Ge.” Jing Suo Suo immediately turns into a gentle cat. She blushes.
Dou Weir recognizes Cheng Ru Yu as the man that Jing Suo Suo sketched on her book. She just looks at Cheng Ru Yu for a while and ignores him.
This time He Yun Xiao comes over with a glass of ice fruit juice and a glass of jasmine tea. He places the glass of ice fruit juice on the table in front of Jing Suo Suo. Then he smiles and puts the glass of jasmine tea in front of Dou Weir. “You are unwell, just drink this.”
Dou Weir says: “Thank you.”
Then she turns silent.
Cheng Ru Yu looks at He Yun Xiao: “Cold drinks with ice can harm the stomach, how can you let Suo Suo drink it.”
“You think I want to take it for her? If it’s not her…..” He Yun Xiao stops and looks at Dou Weir’s face, he is relieved to see that Dou Weir’s face looks okay. He just sits down.
Jing Suo Suo is so happy that she can finally take revenge on He Yun Xiao. She holds up her glass of cold juice and says: “Thank you, He Er Ge.”
He Yun Xiao: “……..”
Cheng Ru Yu takes away the glass: “Be careful later on you will have stomachache.” He looks at the waiter and asks for a glass of Jasmine tea for Jing Suo Suo.
Jing Suo Suo is happy and says sweetly: “Thank you Cheng Da Ge.”
Cheng Ru Yu strokes Jing Suo Suo’s head and Jing Suo Suo enjoys it.
“Yesterday I heard from my Pa, that this month you will go to the south?” He Ji Fan asks Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan is sitting down there while he seems to emit out a warning sign “Do not come closer”. He acts so cold. He just answers: “There will be new project in the South so I will go over to take a look.”
He Ji Fan snorts: “For this little matter, a big boss like you should go personally and inspect it. I think you have an ulterior motive.”
Jing Suo Suo, who is chatting happily with Cheng Ru Yu, listens to He Ji Fan’s words. She speaks up: “South part? My Er Shu’s daughter, which is my Tang Jie (older female cousin/ Su Yu Zuo) is there too. Em… what is it called? It sounds weird but I don’t remember Xiao San Ge, which part of the city will you go?”
“…….” Xiao Yan turns his head to look at Jing Suo Suo and stays silent.
“Do you still need to guess? Of course the city your Tang Jie in.” He Ji Fan drinks his champagne. He looks at Dou Weir. “Though they have divorced but your Xiao San Ge is still thinking of her. He is plotting how to win her back. But no one knows whether the woman will give him a second chance.”
Dou Weir listens to their conversation. Though He Ji Fan’s words are clearly for Xiao Yan but she senses another meaning. She holds her glass more tightly.
Jing Suo Suo doesn’t know about what happened between He Ji Fan and Dou Weir. She just glares at Xiao Yan and asks: “Xiao San Ge, you want to pursue back Tang Jie?”
Cheng Ru Yu pokes Jing Suo Suo’s arm and shifts the conversation. “Aren’t you planning to attend the examination to become civil servant? How is your preparation?”
Hearing about examination makes Jing Suo Suo’s smile turns stiff. “It’s okay……”
“Okay work hard. You are very smart. I believe that you will get a good mark.”
“With your words, I will definitely try my best!”
Jing Fen Fen watches the intimate interaction between Jing Suo Suo and Cheng Ru Yu. Her smile disappears.
“Fen Fen? Fen Fen!” Old Madame Yan raises up her voice. “I’m talking with you, do you hear me?”
Jing Fen Fen didn’t listen to her.
Old Madame Jing looks over and notices that Cheng Ru Yuan and Jing SuO Suo. She doesn’t think too much about it. She just thinks that Jing Fen Fen cannot let Cheng Ru Yu go. She cannot help but to say her sincere words and earnest wishes. “I hear that your Ma has introduced a lot of men for you. You didn’t go and have chat. How can you get a good one? In just months, you’ll be thirty one years old.”
Old Madame Jing is worried, she feels that she cannot rest in peace in her late years. Everyone is making her worry.
“Nai Nai, tell me, if Suo Suo and Cheng Da Ge be together, will you accept them?” Jing Fen Fen suddenly asks.
Old Madame Jing is startled for a while. “Could you?”
Jing Fen Fen answers honestly and shakes her head: “No.”
“Then we will not. How can we let you sisters fight each other?” Old Madame Jing doesn’t think Jing Fen Fen’s question as reality. She just answers it according to what she thinks. “Do you remember Lu Shu Shu (Uncle Lu) that used to be our neighbor. Ten years ago Lu Shu Shua and family moved to Swiss. Two days ago, they just returned back. He has thirty two years old son, he is single….”
“Yesterday I met him. He is talented and handsome. He works as the head of general office of Foreign Ministry. I, your Ye Ye, Pa, Ma, think that he is great. Later on I’ll let your Ma mentions it to Lu Shu Shu and Lu Shen Shen….”
Jing Fen Fen listens to it and feels speechless. “Nai Nai, I hate it that we as female side should mention about the marriage. Don’t do it. How can I be a person after that.”
“You kid, what era is it now. Our country is promoting the attitude of valuing equality between man and woman. A man can propose a marriage alliance, how can a woman not allowed to do it?” Old Madame Jing directly decides on this matter. “Just like that. Tonight I call your Lu Shu Shu and family to let them come over to have dinner. I’ll give time for. you and You Yuan to be familiar with each other.”
“You Yuan?”
“Do you forget about him? Lu Shu Shu’s youngest son. Lu You Yuan, when he was little, he used to follow you everywhere.”
Jing Fen Fen tries to recall him. Finally she remembers that boy is so skinny and had a dark skin. That boy really liked to play with her. When she didn’t take him, he would cry, he would cry for a day.”
Jing Fen Fen rolls her eyes: “Grandma! Please let me go! I beg you!”
