Ye Qing Xin looks at him: “You, you bring ….. this from Jing City?”

He is too calculating.

Jing Bo Yuan takes the wet clothes from her and throws it to the side. He pulls her to face him and carries her up to sit on the washstand. He moves closer to kiss Ye Qing Xin: “Today I ordered the butler to buy it.”

Ye Qing Xin pushes his face with great effort. She says, “My, my period is not yet done…..”

Jing Bo Yuan watches her: “Xin Xin, in front of me, don’t lie.” He then presses her again.

Ye Qing Xin says: “Bo Yuan… my waist….. in pain…..”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her then kisses her until she is stupefied and forgets about her pain. But suddenly she remembers about that set of emerald jewelry. He said that he wants to give it to someone else. He is so mysterious. She is unhappy about it.

Jing Bo Yuan let her go to open the c*nd*m.

Ye QIng Xin pouts and says to him: “You haven’t told me, who will you give that set of emerald jewelry..”

The butler bought a smaller size that his usual size.

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her: “I’m forget that you are in safe period.”

He just throws it away and holds her.

“Who is it for? If you don’t tell me then today don’t think about it….”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her hands on his chest, then he narrows his eyes. His voice is calm and dangerous: “You have big guts now?”

In the next moment, Jing Bo Yuan hugs her. She still wants to resist him but he says in the next moment: “My grandma loves emerald.”

It’s an explanation for her.

After a while.

Jing Bo Yuan stops again and and looks at her. “Xin Xin, today you said that you haven’t agreed to marry me, you are not my fiancee?”

Ye Qing Xin just realizes his question after a while.

Previously she said it because he never proposes toward her so she never agrees to it.

She bits her lips and says unhappily: “I am not saying it wrongly.”

Jing Bo Yuan suddenly says: “I’ll give you one more chance, are you my fiancee?”

Ye Qing Xin: .”………”

The next morning. It’s late in the morning.

Ye Qing Xin wakes up and notices Jing Bo Yuan is not in the room. His side of bed is cold. She could feel the trace of their last intimate moment in the air. She watches the ceiling for a moment and recalls what happened last night.

Jing Bo Yuan unexpectedly …. used that moment, used that kind of method to force her to promise to marry him. Force her to admit that she is his fiancee.

Last night on the auction, she feels that Jing Bo Yuan was calm and collected. She didn’t expect that he planned everything.

This man…. simply…..

Why other men’s proposal are full of fresh flower balloon, they go down on one knee, give a ring. It’s romantic and moved.

But hers…..

She covers her head to cover her face, but the sulking in her heart doesn’t go away.

After a long time.

Ye Qing Xin sits up. The time she moves, her lower body is in pain.

She thinks about how ruthless Jing Bo Yuan last night, Ye Qing Xin bits her lips and her face blushes.

After the first time and she fall ill, the doctor had advised Jing Bo Yuan to be more controlling about this, but looking at his state, he might not know how to write controlling.

Ye Qing Xin moves her body and takes a hot shower to relax her body.

She looks at the towel rack and notices a small and big underwear on it. Ye Qing Xin smiles, it should be Jing Bo Yuan that washed it.

Her bad mood starts to disappear.

It seems that she needs to talk to her not only about his habit of tearing her clothes but also about her pain in waist part.

She finishes her shower and opens the bedroom door. Two maids welcome her.

They both greet her: “Mrs Good morning. The breakfast is ready, do you want to eat it now?”

Ye Qing Xin nods.

The maids bring her to the dining room.

The time that she is downstairs, one of the maid says: “Madame, someone called Mr Qu has been waiting for you at the living room for about an hour. He said that he is bringing something for you.”

Ye Qing Xin frowns: “Mr Qu?”

She doesn’t know anyone with family name Qu.

The maid smiles: “Yes, Mrs. Before Mister went to work today, he told that there’ll be Mr Qu come over to give you something.”

Ye Qing Xin thinks about it and realizes it should be someone that will give her money and the set of emerald jewelry.

Eighty million five hundred thousand……..

Ye Qing Xin’s eyes turn bright. She keeps calm and smiles. “Bring me to the living room. Don’t let the guests wait for a long time.”

Now she is Mrs Jing, she should act according to her position now. She doesn’t want to embarrass him.

“I cannot do that Mrs. Mister told us before that you need to get up and have a breakfast first before meeting him.”

Ye Qing Xin stops and looks at the maid: “if, I really want to meet the guest first?”

The maid bows her head and says politely: “Mister had instructed it before. Madame should have breakfast first. Please Madame, don’t make thing hard for us.”

Ye Qing Xin: “…..”

She suddenly feels that she is lower than Jing Bo Yuan.

She goes to the dining room and sits down. She is not really having a good appetite. She feels in this situation she likes a rich man’s canary…….

The time she is finished, the maid brings her to the living room.

They passes a long path. She looks at both of sides of the walls, which are decorated with oil paintings. Suddenly she notices a familiar oil painting, it’s an Arabic palace with several naked women, who are taking bath.

Ye Qing Xin remembers this painting. Last time during the class, the professor introduces this painting. It’s nineteen century French famous painter of Jean-Leon Gerome, Terrace of Seraglio. Ye Qing Xin stops and looks at it. She feels that this picture looks really good imitation. It looks really real.

She praises this: “This painting is really good.”

The butler appears and smiles toward Ye Qing Xin: “Mister doesn’t like art forgery.”

Ye Qing Xin is startled and just responds.

Her eyes turn big and sees looks at the painting.

She asks: “Just hang it like that, shouldn’t he be afraid that this will be stolen?”

The butler smiles: “Please Madame, trust on our security system.”

Ye Qing Xin: “….. what if being stolen by a spirit?”

The butler smiles: “Please Madame, trust on our security system.”

Ye Qing Xin: “……”

The butler smiles: “Madame don’t worry. If it’s really being stolen. Mister will not care about it. Mister said it that an oil painting should serve the humans and not human serves for him.”

Ye Qing Xin understands his meaning.

He means: “That for Jing Bo Yuan, this drawing is used for him to decorate the house. It’s for people to enjoy. If it is treated as a treasure, then why should it exist? What is it mean?”

Ye Qing Xin pouts. A rich man’s way of thinking is really different.

The butler explains again: “This painting is brought home by Mister a year ago. He wants to place it. Maybe Mister knows that this painting can easily attract people to enjoy it like you Madame.”

“How much money did Mister spend for this?”

Butler: “I don’t know how much specifically. But I think it is more expensive than this house.”

Ye Qing Xin smiles: “….. take me to the living room.”

The butler guides her to the living room.

There’s a middle-aged man sits down on the sofa of the living room. He looks calm and collected. There’s no trace of impatience in him.

“Hi, Madame. I am Qu Qi. I come here to deliver something to you. Please take a look at it.”

Ye Qing Xin is startled.

He is…… Isn’t he the middle-aged man that bid with Shan Shan and Gu Qiao?

Ye Qing Xin is at loss.

“You….”

Qu Qi notices her confusion and smiles. He explains to her with politeness: “I am the vice president of Bo Wei company. I am Chief Jing’s subordinate. Yesterday, it was Chief Jing’s order. Chief Jing asked me if no one is willing to buy your necklace, he asked me to buy it. Of course he would be the one that pays for it. He just let me to bid and raise the bid.

Ye Qing Xin is full off mixed emotions. But she feels that he has thought about ti thorughly.

Ye Qing Xin takes the boxes that Qu Qing passes. Ye Qing Xin asks him: “Mr Qu please sit down.”

“Thank you, Madame.”

Ye Qing Xin opens the box of the set of emerald jewelry.

The she is passed an envelope.

Qu Qi says: “The pink necklace is bought with eighty million five hundred thousand. But the auction house takes five percent fee for the item sold in the auction. So this is the remaining amount 80750000. This card is Chief Jing’s account, he knows the password.”

Ye Qing Xin smiles.

Last time when Chief Jing was hospitalized, he had encountered this little girl. Then he heard that Secretary Mi Mi being instructed to send lunch for this little girl. That time he had impression that this girl should only rely on her beauty to have an affair with rich woman. But last night during the auction, heard that Chief Jing introduced her to Chief Zhu as his fiancee. He understand that this little girl has dominated his heart.

He is somewhat confused how this little girl is beautiful but Chief Jing also surrounds with beautiful women, how can this little girl be so able to dominate him?

He also heard that this little girl is not coming from a rich background.

But he admits that this little girl is so calm and also doesn’t show any sign of happiness when she received the money. He respects her.

Perhaps because Qu Qi is watching her intensely, Ye Qing Xin doesn’t even raise her head but she could notice it. It makes her a bit unhappy about it.

But she raises her head and smiles. She says: “Last night did Chief Jing let you to keep the secret for what happened at last night auction?”

Qu Qi’s expression turns stiff.

Ye Qing Xin smiles even bright and says with a tone that makes people shiver: “Don’t you feel afraid that i will tell your Chief Jing? if he knows that you cannot shut your mouth. I am afraid that he will be unhappy.”

Qu Qi’s face turns sour: “Madame…..”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t give him chance to say anything more, she continues to talk calmly: “There’s a wayside pavilion in the rose garden. The wind is great there, it is cooling. Mr Qu, do you want to join me?”

Now it’s already ten o’clock. It’s scorching hot outside. How can she want to go out to cool off. It’s clear that she is kicking him out.

Qu Qi knows people well. He understands her. He stands up and excuses himself.

The time he reaches the door, he wants to talk more about the consequence if Chief Jing knows that he told Madame about his order. He turns his head to show his miserable face: “Madame….”

Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Mr Qu, don’t worry. I am not someone that cannot guard my mouth.”

Qu Qi: “…….”

Qu Qi goes out and wipes out his cold sweat.

It can be counted as an experience. No wonder Chief Jing likes this woman. Her words, temper simply same as Chief Jing.

After Qu Qi leaves, Ye Qing Xin takes her box and returns to the master bedroom. She takes out the card and feels that it’s unreal.

She smiles.

Actually she is aware of Qu Qi’s judgment at her.

She and Jing Bo Yuan are two different people. People that live from different worlds. It’s no wonder that people cannot understand why are they together. Sometimes she also feels confused how can she carelessly hold onto him.

She takes out her wallet and puts the card inside.

She then looks at other boxes of emerald jewelry.

She remembers that last night about Jing Bo Yuan’s word to her. This is his gift for his grandma.

Ye Qing Xin pouts. It’s for Old Madame Jing. Why he should act mysteriously and let her to think wildly about it. She thought that it was for other women…….

She closes the box and puts it carefully inside his trunk to avoid he forgets about it.

Her phone suddenly rings.

Ye Qing Xin answers. It’s Dou Weir.

“Xin Xin, are you having fun at Hong Kong?”

Ye Qing Xin smiles: “I keep on staying at home, I don’t go anywhere.”

“What? Hong Kong is heaven for good food and shopping. It’s a rare chance for you to go and you just stay at home? Is there something wrong with you? I want to ask you to help me buy something…..

Ye Qing Xin remembers faintly that before she slept last night, Jing Bo Yuan said that he will be busy today and they will return back to Jing City by eight o’clock flight.

She has nothing to do in the afternoon. It’s also good for her to stroll around. So she asks her: “What do you want to buy? I can help you to find.”

Dou Weir is happy: “Then later on I’ll send you via WeChat.”

Ye Qing Xin: “… you want to buy a lot of things?”

Dou Weir: “Not much, only twenty kinds.”

Ye Qing Xin: “….. Can I back out now?”

Dou Weir says fiercely: “NO!”

They both chat and Dou Weir suddenly stammers: “Xin Xin…..”

A maid brings in a plate of fruits so Ye Qing Xin eats the fruits too: “What is it?”

Dou Weir hesitates: “Shi Ying… she said that she accepted a role in the drama, she can ask the director to help me get a chance to take a camera test for the second-female lead. What do you think….. should I try?”

Ye Qing Xin asks: “Do you want to enter entertainment industry? Also why Shi Ying is helping you? Isn’t she pregnant with He Ji Fan’s kind? He Ji Fan clearly feels attraction toward you. I look his gaze at you is not pure, how can she want to help you? Don’t tell me that she is kind, there’s no one will help you without nothing.”
