Chapter 167
In the business world, he is undoubtedly a successful man.
This month their calls can be counted with one single hand. Every time they just chat for two or three sentences and the calls end.
Recently for half month, he even doesn’t call or message him.
Two weeks ago, every Friday, Ye Qing Xin will get a phone from Driver Lu to ask what time he needs to pick her up.
Just like that their relationship is ended. This has progressed as her wish.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know how to describe her feeling but she is low spirit.
The weather turns cooler. The leaves start to turn yellow, the air is smelt of spring time.
“Xin Xin, what are you thinking of?” Jing Suo Suo pokes Ye Qing Xin arm with her elbow. “Did you listen to my words?”
Ye Qing Xin looks at her chubby face and smiles: “I’m listening. Yu Qing You marries a good man, her ring is big, her wedding dress is so beautiful, the wedding is so grand, and you are jealous.”
Jing Suo Suo glares at her: “It’s my previous words. I just said that this weekend Nai Nai want all of our family members to gather to eat together. Just in time my Er Shu and Da Ge will go home. She asked me to let you know about it so you an come. Recently you are so busy with your work, Nai Nai called you to go back home to eat, but you are always busy. She is sad.”
Ye Qing Xin looks down at her hand and smiles. “Let’s see. You know that I just get into Pear. I don’t need to go to work, but I still have job to do. It’s might be inappropriate for me to delay it.”
Jing Suo Suo sighs: “You are not graduate yet, why are you so rushing it to get work? My Ge is that rich, you are afraid that he cannot raise you? If you really like to work that then I’ll tell my Ge to give money to open you a one, it’s should be more awesome than Pear.”
Ye Qing Xin laughs because of her rich and arrogant words: “His money is a lot, but it’s his.”
Then the bell is ringing.
They should go to the class.
The professor in front of the class keeps on teaching non-stop, yet Ye Qing Xin is watching his white shirt and daydreams.
Though Jing Bo Yuan also has different shirts, but inside his wardrobe, his shirt mostly in white shirt.
“Ye Qing Xin, come and answer this problem.”
The professor’s voice comes into her ear.
Ye Qing Xin stands up and answers the problem easily.
The old professor looks at her and asks her to go back to her seat. He says: “Even you know and understand it, but you should still pay attention during the class.”
Ye Qing Xin apologizes sincerely: “I’m sorry.”
The old professor’s face turns calmer and snorts. He continues to teach.
The time the class ends, it’s already five o’clock.
“Xin Xin,how are you recently? Your mind keeps on wandering around during the lesson” Dou Weir chases after her.
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Nothing, I’m okay. I’m just thinking about something.”
“Are you in fight with your big boss?” Dou Weir tries to probe: “I just wonder why do you want to move back to school. I keep on thinking about it. Your big boss always attracts a lot of women’s heart. Be careful that little foxy woman will hook him up. That time you’ll cry hard.”
Ye Qing Xin says: “That’s good too.”
Dou Weir is startled: “You are really fighting?”
Ye Qing Xin says casually: “Not fighting, we are done. So in the future don’t you say that he is my big boss again, he is not mine anymore.”
Dou Weir is surprised, she glares at her: “Really? When did it happen?” She says: “could it be since you moved back?”
Ye Qing Xin stops walking and notices a tall figure man wearing a white shirt.
That figure looks like that man’s figure.
Dou Weir looks over and realizes it. She remembers that since a month ago, Ye Qing Xin frequently watches a figure that is wearing a white shirt.
She usually teases her about it. She describes what Ye Qing Xin doing as “love for a person extends even to the crows on their roof”. Jing Bo Yuan likes to wear white shirt. Ye Qing Xin only thinks about white shirt.
“Xin Xin, you really broke up with him?” Dou Weir asks for the last time.
Ye Qing Xin isn’t someone that easily make irresponsible remark, especially for that important thing. She will not lie.
“Xin XIn.....”
Dou Weir doesn’t know how to comfort her. She seems to lose the ability of forming words.
“Xin Xin, why?”
“Did it happen because he has another one? A rich people always has that kind of habit?”
Ye Qing Xin is still daydreaming.
Dou Weir pokes her arm. “Xin Xin.”
Ye Qing Xin regains herself and says: “Not because of him, it’s me. I wanted to break up.”
Dou Weir is even more confused: “Why ah? You and him were good right?”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t answer but she asks her back: “Let’s go out to eat, my treat?”
“.......” The topic changes too fast. Dou Weir is confused.
Ye Qing Xin takes Dou Weir to a Si Chuan restaurant. She orders several dishes and two beers.
Dou Weir looks at her open the bottle. “You want to drink this? Are you sure, you are okay?”
Ye Qing Xin just laughs and pours the beer to the glasses. She passes one to Dou Weir. “In the past you kept saying that I haven’t treated you after I entered Pear right? Today are you surprised about my treat?”
Dou Weir looks around at the situation in the restaurant. “Shouldn’t you find a good one? Like a five-star or at least three-star? If you cannot you can take me to the seafood restaurant. How can you treat me like this.”
Ye Qing Xin says to him: “If yo don’t want that no need to drink or eat it.”
She says it and drinks it.
Dou Weir watches her.
“Slow down. You will be drunk. I cannot carry you if you are drunk.”
Ye Qing Xin laughs: “Don’t look down at me. Though I don’t drink often but I have a great alcohol tolerance leave. I probably born with it.”
She remembers the first time she met Jing Bo Yuan, Tai Zheng Ting brought her to meet that Chief Huang. For distracting him, Ye Qing Xin drank a lot. Thought at last she was a bit drunk but it’s nothing serious. That day she notices that she is a good drinker.
There’s quite a crowd in the restaurant so the dishes don’t come out quickly.
Ye Qing Xin drinks three glass and Dou Weir takes the glass from her: “Stop drinking.” She turns her head and talks to the waiter: “are the dishes done? We have been waiting for a long time.”
The waiter is cleaning another table, she smiles at her: “It’ll be done son, soon. Don’t rush it. It’s been cooked.”
Dou Weir pouts: “Every waiter of the restaurant says that way, they just want to buy some time..... ay! Xin Xin, don’t drink again.”
The time she talked to the waiter, Ye Qing Xin takes the opportunity and pours another glass for herself.
Dou Weir cannot persuade her to stop. She wants to talk about something to distract her. Suddenly she remember the gossip that she heard from several friends. It’s related to Ye Qing Xin, she says: “Tai Zheng Ting’s company is bankrupt. He owes thirty million, he couldn’t accept that so he jumped from a tall building. Do you know about it?”
Ye Qing Xin is startled and shakes her head.
Du Weir knows that she doesn’t know about it: “This matter is not known by a lot of people. Coincidentally my friend passed by that time. She watched it. But to think about it, your old Jiu Jiu seems to be a character, how can he cannot bear a bit of problems. A proverb says “victory or defeat is a common thing for a soldier.” Shouldn’t it common to earn and loss in business? He is to weak?”
“So how is he?” Ye Qing Xin asks.
“Not dead.” Dou Weir says,” He breaks his leg.”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t say anything else.
Dou Weir continues: “These two days, you haven’t met Tai Shi Yun? Now she is walking with her head down, she doesn’t act like before, she wasn’t that arrogant. Now she looks like a person that can do anything. It’s too hilarious. In the past, she was rich and higher than us, but now her family owes thirty million. If her dad is dead, she probably will need to repay it. It’s no wonder she become like that.”
“Also that Tai Shi Shi, there’s a rumor that she has turned into person in a vegetative state. Ckck, is all the people in Tai Family in debt to someone in previous life that now they get all the karma?”
Ye Qing Xin: “.......”
The waiter finally serves out that their food.
Dou Weir keeps on talking and forgets that she needs to stop Ye Qing Xin to drink again. The time she remembers about it, Ye Qing Xin wants to order another bottle, she calls the waiter to take another one.
“No, you shouldn’t!” Dou Weir stops the waiter. “If my friend is drunk, will you take responsibility?”
The waiter: “......”
After they are done eating, Ye Qing Xin still can walk steadily but her face is blushing red.
Dou Weir is worried about her so she hold her arm. She raises her wrist to look at her watch: “Let’s go home.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles, her eyes are bright: “I want to go to watch movie. Go with me.”
Dou Weir: “.......”
They take a taxi and Dou Weir says to the driver: “Go to Ping Hai square.”
“Go to the downtown.” Ye Qing Xin opposes. She insists: “I want to go to watch at the downtown area.”
Dou Weir: “........”
Looking at how stubborn she is, she seems to be very drunk.
Dou Weir looks at Ye Qing Xin and says: “Go to the downtown.”
They arrive at the downtown area around 08:00 p.m.
Dou Weir wants to watch comedy, but Ye Qing Xin asks, “What is the movie played in the theater 4?”
The ticket seller is startled. It’s the first time she heard someone asks that weird question. But because customers are kings, so she opens her computer to check it. She smiles politely and says: “in ten minutes that will be <<Twin/ Shuang Sheng Ren>>.”
“<< Twin/ Shuang Sheng Ren>>? No!” Dou Weir is terrified. “That is horror movie. Two days ago Huang Jie and her boyfriend went to watch that movie. I heard from her that now she even doesn’t dare to go to the restroom or look at the mirror in the daytime. Xin Xin, how about if you watch another move?”
Ye Qing Xin lowers her head and chooses seats: “My treat, I have right to choose.”
Dou Weir: “........”
Both of them hold their own popcorn basket and coca-cola, they get in to the movie theater. The film starts and the lights is off.
Ye Qing Xin wears her 3D glasses. She looks like she is enjoying the movie seriously, but Dou Weir feels a bit worried about her.
Today it’s clear that Ye Qing Xin is acting strangely. Perhaps it’s been a month that she is acting unusual.
During the movie, there’s a silence part for a moment. Suddenly, Ye Qing Xin’s phone rings. She takes out her phone. Everyone is turning their head and watching her.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t answer it and just denies the call.
“Why didn’t you answer it?” Dou Weir moves closer to her.
Ye Qing Xin: “It’s just a marketing call.
The phone rings again, but she just directly turns her phone off.
Dou Weir narrows her eyes and looks at her with doubt: “It’s still marketing call?”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and says nothing. She wears her 3D glass again.
Dou Weir notices that she is unwilling to answer her so she doesn’t force her to answer. Dou Weir just covers her ears and curls herself on the sofa. She doesn’t dare to look at the screen. She doesn’t dare to listen to that horrible sound and music.
The sky is dark.
At the B university gate. A black car stops nearby.
Luo Feng sits down on the driver seat and holds the steering wheel. He is sweating.
Jing Bo Yuan raises his phone and bites his cigarette. He just listens to cold voice of a woman: “Sorry, the number you are calling is switched off......” His face is cold.
Luo Feng could guess that Young Tai Tai is making his boss angry.
A month at Zhu Hai, from the second day boss and young Tai Tai’s fight until now. Boss’ mood always been bad. Boss puts all his mood to his job. The media just reports that Bo Wei bought Yuan Jing of Zhu Hai but actually this month, Bo Wei purchased fifteen companies.
This makes Luo Feng and others employees to be so busy. They woke up earlier than chicken, sleeps later than dog. They wer so tired.
Luo Feng straightens his clothes and sits up properly. His back is facing his boss’ sour face. God knows it’s been a long time for him to have a good sleep. They just returned from Zhu Hai and they just rushed directly to B university. They even haven’t eaten anything. He notices that his face has turned skinnier.
“Suo Suo.” Jing Bo Yuan says.
Luo Feng wipes his sweaty head.
Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t get the answer he wants from Jing Suo Suo. He opens the door and throws the cigarette butt. Then calls another number.
It’s connected. After a while, a call comes in. This time probably he will get the answer he wants. Then Jing Bo Yuan says “Go to downtown.”
Luo Feng starts to drive the car.
Jing Bo Yuan seems to think about something and says: “Call a private detective. Take him to my office tomorrow.”
Luo Feng asks: “Chief Jing, you want to investigate someone?”
Jing Bo Yuan takes another cigarette and smokes it. “Find the one that is expert in following.”
Luo Feng doesn’t say anything else. He looks at Jing Bo Yuan from the rear-viewed mirror. He notices that this month Jing Bo Yuan’s habit of smoking has turned even worst.”
Downtown movie theater.
Dou Weir returns after a call. Ye Qing Xin asks her: “Who is calling you?”
Dou Weir replies: “He Ji Fan, he is like verifier of household member, he is asking about my location. He is crazy!”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Is he picking you up?”
Dou Weir: “No, except being good on bed, there’s nothing good that I can see from him.”
Ye Qing Xin: “.........”
