Chapter 362: A Warm Scene
The next morning, Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin went to the company.
Why? Yin Jiujin said that Yan Jinyu was going to leave him for a while, so she had to accompany him for the entire day today.
In the Empire Group's headquarters, be it the front desk or the other employees, they were already very familiar with Yan Jinyu. However, they felt that compared to Yin Jiujin, who was cold and had a strong aura, Yan Jinyu, who always had a smile on her face and looked innocent, was much kinder. Hence, ever since they stepped into the Empire Building, there were constantly people greeting Yan Jinyu. They were all calling her Miss Yu very sweetly.
Yan Jinyu naturally wouldn't ignore Yin Jiujin's subordinates when they greeted her.
She greeted them with a smile or a nod.
However, regardless of her reaction, Yin Jiujin was still a little jealous. He quickly led her to the exclusive elevator and isolated her from the others.
After entering the elevator, perhaps he was probably too jealous, he even hugged Yan Jinyu tightly and kissed her for a long time.
He wouldn't even let go of her after he finished kissing her, he buried his face in her shoulder and rubbed against her. "I'm a little regretful that I brought you to the company now."
"So, didn't I say that I'll wait for you at home?"
Yin Jiujin snorted softly and hugged her tightly. "No, you promised to accompany me for the entire day."
"Then don't be jealous. They're all employees of your company. Why are you jealous of them too?" He didn't pay attention to his image. He was Master Nine, the Master Nine with a reputation that made people tremble in fear. He was a ruthless person and not a cute little puppy, even though he always acted coquettishly in front of her like a cute little puppy…
Ahem.
"I just can't bear to see you smile so brightly at others."
Yan Jinyu was speechless. "I usually smile like this."
"Besides, I'm so friendly because they're your employees."
She wrapped her arms around his back. "On the other hand, Brother Nine, you said that you came to the company because you had something to do at the last minute. If you didn't have something on at the last minute, how do you plan to live today? Are you going to stay at Mount Jing with me and be a slacker too?"
Slacker?
Yin Jiujin let go of her and flicked her forehead. "You know yourself very well."
"It's true that I'll stay with you at Mount Jing, but I'm not going to be a slacker with you."
Yan Jinyu didn't understand.
Yin Jiujin didn't intend to say anything else. "Let's keep it a secret first."
***
The two of them didn't stay in the company for long. Yin Jiujin finished his work in about two hours.
For the past two hours, Yan Jinyu had been sitting on the sofa in his office… reading.
Yes, reading. She had been playing games and watching dramas recently. She was a little tired of it, so she just read. She didn't specifically look for any books to read. She simply took them from the bookshelf in Yin Jiujin's office. It was a book about management.
She read quickly and finished the book in two hours.
When Yin Jiujin switched off the computer, she happened to close her book.
She looked up and asked him, "Are you done?"
"Mm-hm."
Yan Jinyu stood up and placed the book back on the bookshelf.
She turned back and asked the person who was hugging her from behind, "Shall we go back now?"
Yin Jiujin leaned on her shoulder and closed his eyes to ease his fatigue before pecking her cheek. "There's no hurry. Let's go somewhere first."
Yan Jinyu thought that he was going somewhere. She only knew when she arrived that it was a supermarket!
She was a little stunned as she stood at the entrance of the supermarket.
"What are you doing here? What do you want to buy? Didn't Aunt Cheng arrange for someone to specially buy the daily necessities on Mount Jing?"
"To celebrate the end of your college entrance examination, I'm prepared to cook a meal for you personally." Yin Jiujin smiled faintly.
"…" Yan Jinyu was a little stunned, surprised, and touched.
Her silly look made Yin Jiujin feel that it was worth it for him to specially spare time to do this.
Look at her long-lost silly expression.
He couldn't help but pinch her face. "This was what I planned to do yesterday." Because Luo Linlin had treated them to a meal, his plan was ruined.
"I gave Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng a day off today. I'll cook personally."
"Let's go in."
Yan Jinyu let him lead her to the supermarket. Looking at him pushing the cart and choosing the ingredients familiarly, Yan Jinyu couldn't help but ask, "Brother Nine, do you come to the supermarket often?"
From her understanding, Yin Jiujin shouldn't have had the chance to do such a thing personally, be it in the capital or in North City.
"This is my first time here."
"Then why do I feel that you're so familiar with it?"
"Silly. Haven't you seen others do it before?" His words were straight to the point.
Yan Jinyu thought about it. Oh right, she had seen others do it before?
She had never personally come to the supermarket to buy anything. Oh, other than buying yogurt in the past. She would leave after paying since she only bought a few packets of yoghurt. It didn't waste too much of her time.
She had never shopped at the supermarket seriously, but she was still very familiar with buying vegetables or some daily necessities.
Alright, she was being silly.
Yin Jiujin didn't ask her what she wanted to eat because he knew that it was useless. She would definitely say "whatever". Hence, he simply prepared according to his understanding of her taste.
Yin Jiujin pushed the cart with one hand and placed the things he needed on the shelf into the cart with the other. Yan Jinyu walked to the side and held his arm. She wanted to take a look at everything.
Other than their looks and temperament, the two of them looked no different from ordinary couples.
It was very endearing.
Although Yan Jinyu was looking around carefreely, her heart was actually not so calm.
Because with Yin Jiujin by her side, she had really experienced many things that she had never thought she would have the chance to experience.
She felt that Yin Jiujin was like her salvation, sent by the heavens to make up for her.
Whenever Yin Jiujin took something, Yan Jinyu would ask him what it was or what it was for. Yin Jiujin would patiently explain it to her.
She felt that it felt great when the two of them shopped in the supermarket, and so did Yin Jiujin.
He also thought that if such a person did not appear beside him, he would probably never have such an experience in his life.
He would have devoted all his time to work.
His dull life was colorful because of one person.
They bought two big bags of things. Yin Jiujin even patiently picked a carton of yogurt for Yan Jinyu, carefully looking at the flavor and composition.
Yin Jiujin had said that he was specially rewarding her.
When they left the supermarket, Yin Jiujin took a straw and inserted a bottle before passing it to her. He placed the rest back into the bag. Yin Jiujin carried the two big bags himself. Yan Jinyu wanted to help, but he didn't let her.
Hence, when the two of them walked together, they became a tall and handsome man carrying two bags of things and a petite and beautiful girl followed at the side while drinking yogurt. The scene was very beautiful.
The car was parked not far away.
After putting their things away, the two of them drove back to Mount Jing.
They didn't buy vegetables. After returning to Mount Jing, the two of them personally went to the vegetable garden to pick fresh vegetables.
Although they said that they would pick it together, Yin Jiujin didn't ask Yan Jinyu to do it. He just let her stand by the garden and watch.
"I'll go to the kitchen to cook. Go to the living room and turn on the television for a while. I'll call you when I'm done." Yin Jiujin held the vegetables in his hand and looked very down-to-earth.
However, seeing him like this, Yan Jinyu felt that he was even more charming for some reason.
"No, I want to help you."
Her eyes were smiling, but her gaze was firm.
She was a stubborn person. Yin Jiujin knew that since she insisted, it was useless for him to say anything more. He simply agreed, "Alright, help me wash the vegetables."
Yan Jinyu was very happy to do so. She skipped along with him to the kitchen.
It was just washing vegetables. Yan Jinyu could still do it. Even if she had never done it before, it was similar to barbecuing in the remote mountains. They had to be washed till they were clean.
After a while, she was done.
Yin Jiujin had almost finished cutting the ingredients he needed to prepare.
"I'm going to start cooking. The kitchen will be very smokey and oily. Wait for me outside, okay?"
Yan Jinyu pouted.
Yin Jiujin quickly compromised. "Then stand further away."
Yan Jinyu smiled in satisfaction. She placed her hands behind her back and stood there, tilting her head as she watched him cook.
She didn't know how cute she was. Anyway, Yin Jiujin didn't dare to take a second look. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to continue cooking.
How seductive.
However, he didn't realize how meaningful Yan Jinyu's gaze was when she looked at him.
If she wasn't afraid of disturbing him cooking…
There were not many dishes, just three dishes and a soup.
It was a simple home-cooked meal.
It was enough for the two of them.
Yan Jinyu helped carry the dishes. Yin Jiujin didn't reject her because it was useless.
Yin Jiujin even specially took out a bottle of treasured red wine from the basement and opened it. He brought two glasses and one for each of them.
At that moment, Yan Jinyu had already sat down at the dining table. Seeing the red wine in front of her, she blinked and was a little puzzled, "For me?"
"Brother Nine, didn't you forbid me from drinking?"
"You can drink at home, but not outside. Besides, this is red wine. It's fine to drink a little."
Yan Jinyu wanted to say that it wasn't that she couldn't drink. She could drink very well. Even if it wasn't red wine, she could still drink very well.
"But the atmosphere isn't right. It's broad daylight. Why are we drinking red wine at home?" As she spoke, Yan Jinyu even looked out of the window. The noon sun was scorching.
"Oh?" Yin Jiujin swirled his wine glass and raised his eyebrows at her. "The atmosphere isn't right to drink red wine in broad daylight. In what atmosphere should we drink then?"
That sounded a little coquettish.
Yan Jinyu understood.
Her aura was not inferior to his. She grinned foolishly. "Of course it's at night. Candlelight dinner or something. That kind of atmosphere is most suitable."
Yin Jiujin smiled. "If you want the atmosphere, you can close the curtains. I can even get some candles and roses."
"…There's no need for that. Let's eat." If she nodded, she dared to guarantee that he would definitely go to the sea of flowers outside to pick a few roses and then get candles.
It was just a meal. Why made it so troublesome?
"Let's toast to Little Yu'er's college entrance examination's smooth ending."
Looking at the wine glass he raised, Yan Jinyu raised it and clinked it with his. "Thank you, Brother Nine." It was quite formal.
The two of them took a sip of wine.
"Try the food first and see how it tastes." Yin Jiujin was a little expectant.
Yan Jinyu knew that Yin Jiujin knew how to cook, but other than the porridge he cooked the last time, this was the first time she had eaten the food he cooked.
She was looking forward to it too.
She picked up her chopsticks and took a bite.
"How does it taste?"
