Ye Qing Xin finishes her question about asking for money. She feels a bit upset.

That time she is unable to restrain her emotion to say it. After she is done, she starts to be more clear-headed.

Although her hope to borrow money from Ye Jun Dong is throughly shattered, she has thought to borrow money from Jing Bo Yuan, but she thinks she should do it in more cautious and respectful words.

But that time she asks with her sobbing voice.

She doesn’t know how will Jing Bo Yuan see her.

If she doesn’t aware of her feeling toward him, then she wouldn’t care how he sees her action. But now, she doesn’t want he belittles her.

At last, Jing Bo Yuan also doesn’t answer whether he will lend it to her or not. He just asks her whereabout.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know about his intention but she just answers: “I’m at home.”

“T city, Jiu An town.” Jing Bo Yuan answers it precisely.

Ye Qing Xin is startled.

“Chief Jing, how can you know it?”

She never tells him before.

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t answer, he just says: “Don’t be afraid, wait for me.” He says it and hangs up.

Those words is simple but it brings a indescribable and powerful influence for her. It warms her heart.

Is she afraid?

Yes, she is afraid. No matter how calm her demeanor is. She is just a twenty years old girl. Encountering those unforeseen events, with efforts from others to make things hard for her, how can she not feel afraid?

It’s just she is good at hiding it.

She doesn’t want her attacker knows that she is week, she doesn’t want the people beside her to be worried too.

All people think that she is stubborn and tough. It’s only Jing Bo Yuan that could see her heart.

It’s just…..

Wait for him?

Ye Qing Xin bits her lips, her eyes are filled with water.

What did he mean?

Will he come for her?

Will he?

He is at a high place, a popular man, can he rush to T city for an ordinary woman like her?

Ye Qing Xin is startled for a long time, then she stands up. She carries her backpack and returns to the hospital.

Song Jiu notices her. Song Jiu’s face is full of worried, she talks to Ye Qing Xin with her small voice: “Auntie Zhou coughed up blood before, Xin Xin, will she….”

“No!” Ye Qing Xin cuts her off, she determines: “My Ma will get better.”

Song Jiu just swallows her words and doesn’t say anything futher.

Ye Qing Xin sits down near the bed and clutches Zhou Qiao Qiao’s hand. She watches her Ma.

She is thinking about what Ye Jun Dong said to her. She feels complicated.

When she was young, she frequently heard their neighbor mocked her mother: at that time you cancelled you marriage with Tai Zheng Ting, you insisted to marry to that penniless Ye Jun Dong, what is the result of your decision? You are dumped by him? Even your parents dislike you now, at last you depend on Tai Zheng Ting to live, you should regret it right?

That year what did happen?

How can she and Ye Qing Guo are not Ye Jun Dong’s kid?

Xiao Guo is Tai Zheng Ting’s son, then what about her?

Suddenly Zhou Qiao Qiao coughs up blood again.

“MA!” Ye Qing Xin is panic, she says calmly to Song Jiu: “Help me to take care of her, I’ll go and beg the doctor…”

At this moment. The door is pushed open. Several doctors and nurses come inside.

Ye Qing Xin and Song Jiu are at loss. The doctors and nurses start to push the bed to move Zhou Qiao Qiao.

Ye Qing Xin stops them hurriedly: “What do you guys want to do?”

Hearing her question, the head of the doctors smiles politely and says to her: “Don’t worry. We don’t have bad intention. It’s just this room is too small, we will move her to the better room. Then we will arrange the best doctor and give her the best treatment and medicine.”

Ye Qing Xin, Song Jiu: “………”

All of the doctors and nurses are so fast, they move Zhou Qiao Qiao to the high class VIP room and gives her IV drip. Two nurses stay in the room to take care of her.

After two hours, the door is knocked.

Ye Qing Xin opens the door.

Outside, there’re several men with suit standing.

Ye Qing Xin is at loss.

She recognizes one of them, Lu Jie’s father, Lu Jian. He is S city mayor.

Lu Jian comes with several other men. At the back of him is the director of the hospital, Wu Feng and several doctors.

All of them are smiling.

Wu Feng: Mayor Lu, this is the one that you want to meat, she is Zhou Qiao Qiao’s……” He is clearly nervous.

Two hours ago, Wu Feng suddenly received a call from the major of the city and several leaders then they wanted to visit a patient called Zhou Qiao Qiao. They asked him to be ready. He was so surprised and called the hospital to arrange Zhou Qiao Qiao.

Wu Feng looks at Zhou Qiao Qiao confusedly and looked at Ye Qing Xin, he is curious what is happening.

Lu Jian doesn’t really look at Zhou Qiao Qiao, his attention is focused on Ye Qing Xin.

Ye Qing Xin only knows Lu Jian so she greets him: “Mayor Lu, hi.”

Lu Jian smiles.

He looks at her and says comfortingly: “Your mother will be okay, no need to worry.”

Ye Qing Xin is startled and thanks him: “Thank you for your consideration, Mayor Lu.”

She is not servile or overbearing.

Lu Jian nods and looks at Wu Feng. He says coldly to him: “You should take a good care of Ms Ye’s mother.” His tone is somewhat threatening.

Wu Feng is scared, but he doesn’t show it. He just nods: “Of course, of course!”

Lu Jian just says another thing to Ye Qing Xin: “Take a good care of your mother.” Then he leaves.

After he left, Song Jiu flees to Ye Qing Xin’s side and boasts loudly: “Ay it’s the mayor. Tell me, how can this mayor be so sensitive to people’s need? He came over at this late night and ordered the head of hospital to take a good care of Auntie Zhou? Isn’t it clear that he is helping us? Is it because you asked Wen Ze Yan for help?”

Song Jiu is thinking hard: “It’s possible. Except Wen Ze Yan, who can move Mayor Lu to help?”

Ye Qing Xin just sits down beside the bed quietly and clutches her mother’s hand.

In her heart, Ye Qing Xin knows clearly that even though Wen Ze Yan begs Mayor Lu to help her, Lu Jian will not do it.

It should be Jing Bo Yuan.

It definitely is him.

Ye Qing Xin holds her phone and wants to call him. But when she sees the time, it’s already two o’clock. She thinks that he should be asleep at this time.

She suddenly doesn’t want to wake him up.

Don’t how does he look like when he is sleeping?

He shouldn’t look so serious right?

Suddenly.

“Xin Xin!” Song Jiu pats Ye Qing Xin’s shoulder: “What are you thinking that you are smiling so bright!”

Ye Qing Xin rubs her face: “Am I?”

Is she smiling?

Song Jiu narrows her eyes at her: “Yes, you are. Are you thinking about someone? You are smiling so sweetly. You are thinking about someone.” Song Jiu screams: “Ah! Are you thinking about Wen Ze Yan?”

Ye Qing Xin rolls her eyes. She pokes Song Jiu’s head: “What are you thinking?”

Song Jiu pats her shoulder: “It’s not good…..” She sits down beside Ye Qing Xin: “Actually I always want to say something to you. That Wen Ze Ya, even though he is quite good-looking, but I always think that he is lacking of something when he is standing beside you. Maybe it’s so called “not compatible”, so that time you guys broke up, I feel it’s reasonable.”

Ye Qing Xin smiles: “It’s in the past, let’s not talk about it.”

“Em, I’ll not.” Song Jiu says: “Our Xin Xin, in the future will be married to a tall and handsome man. Also rich and capable good man!”

Ye Qing Xin thinks about Jing Bo Yuan’s face when she hears about Song Jiu’s words. Her face turns red.

“How can it be?”

“Em? What did you say? How can it impossible?”

Ye Qing Xin bits her lips, she shakes her head and doesn’t say anything more.

Song Jiu yawns and goes to the sofa to sleep.

The room turns quiet.

Ye Qing Xin feels that the problems that she encountered these days are like dreams.

All the bad things turn good now.

It’s just she doesn’t really understand what Jing Bo Yuan said before. “Wait for me.” What did he mean?

Why that man always use simple words?

The next day.

There’s a great sensation in T city.

After several years able to move unhindered, a deputy leader of T city who is part of Li family, is being dismissed.

It is said that Li family privately does a drug business. In the whole family there’s no one clean, except that unconscious ten years old kid.

Ye Qing Xin is surprised.

How can …… it be so coincidental.

It’s too outrageous.

But she doesn’t want to think too much about it, it’s unrelated to her.

She also hears that the unconscious boy of Li family has woke up.

It’s a good news for Ye Qing Xin.

With that boy be conscious means that Ye Qing Guo can easily come out from the mental hospital.

In the mid-afternoon, Zhou Qiao Qiao wakes up but she is still weak, she keeps on coughing, sometimes with blood.

The doctor checks her and couldn’t find what is her illness.

Ye Qing Xin seems to have a bad premonition.

At three o’clock, Ye Qing Xin gets a call from the police station. They said they had checked on the case. That boy fell down by himself, and also the injured police did not hurt, he was being orderedd by Li Liang to frame Ye Qing Guo. Ye Qing Guo is innocent. He asked her to pick Ye Qing Guo up.

Ye Qing Xin is startled.

These problems are solved one by one in a quick speed. She is too surprised.

Up till she takes Ye Qing Guo to Zhou Qiao Qiao’s fce, she still feels it’s too surreal. In just a short one week. She experiences a lot of things, and the matters are easily solved.

She feels so thankful when she looks at her mother is hugging her little brother.

Her mother and her little brother, the two that she loves, finally returns to her side.

But she feels a slight emptiness.

After that call, Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t send her any news.

Didn’t he say to let her wait for him.

She knows clearly she shouldn’t be having fantasy, but she is expecting him.

At night ten thirty.

As usual he sends her the goodnight message.

It let Ye Qing Xin questions whether he has set up alarm to message her.

Ye Qing Xin reads the message then she stands up to go out of the room. She looks for a quite place and dials his number.

It’s answered.

“Hi, Xin Xin.”

Ye Qing Xin’s heart beats so fast.

She purses her lips: “Chief Jing, my little brother is being released. Also Mama, also gets the best treatment. All of this….. is it your doing?”

How can this thing be so fast and smooth.

Ye Qing Xin bits her lips and draws Jing Bo Yuan’s name on the window.

She doesn’t say anything, he also stays quiet.

He is waiting for her to speak up. He is so patient with her.

After a while, Ye Qing Xin says half true and half false, half silly half awake. “Last night you said to let me wait for you, I have waited for you a day, where are you?”

This words are vague.

Jing Bo Yuan asks her: “You want to meet me?”

Ye Qing Xin replies “Em.”

Jing Bo Yuan says: “Okay, wait fifteen minutes for me.”

Ye Qing Xin hangs up. She strokes her burning face.

She goes back to Zhou Qiao Qiao’s room and says to Zhou Qiao Qiao that she will be going out for a while. Then she comes out from the hospital lobby.

The weather outside is cold, but her heart is so burning hot.

On the other side.

Jing Bo Yuan hangs up and returns to the private room.

Inside the private room, there is T city mayor, T city county leader and severals other important people. All the people are smiling when Jing Bo Yuan comes back: “Is it Mrs Jing too worry about Chief Jing, that she calls to check up on you?”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t deny. He looks like he admits it.

He raises up his glass and says to everyone: “I’m sorry. I need to do handle some problems. I’ll drink this as my apology.”

He says it and drinks it all.

All of them say: “We are not dare to accept it.” Then they stand and drink a beer too.

Jing Bo Yuan puts down his glass and says: “Regarding the contributions, I already let my assistant to handle the agreement. All of you please review it. If there’s no problem, tomorrow let’s sign it.”

Luo Feng — passes the agreement.

The time Jing Bo Yuan and Luo Feng left.

They all read through the agreement and so surprised to see the amount of the donation.

One of them sighed; “Jing City’s rich man is really different. The time they donate, they donate a year of our revenue!”

Lu Jian is happy: “This will make our city be the strategic area.”

One of them suddenly thinks about something and asks: “Mayor Lu, are you the one that invite him over? What trick did you use? How can you find that honorable donator?”

Lu Jian: “Will you believe if I say that he comes by himself?”

“I don’t believe it.”

Lu Jian says: “it’s better that you believe it. It’s like a story where a hero saves a woman. This boss couldn’t help to a beautiful woman that is in our T city. She has difficulty in T city so I help her, this could be his repay for a favor…..”

Ye Qing Xin stays outside for ten minutes.

Jing Bo Yuan calls her.

“I am the parking area.”

Ye Qing Xin replies “em.”

She lowers her head and examines herself. Her clothes are clean, her hair…. okay. This period of time she is under pressure. She already forgets when the last time she took a shower.

She just styles her hair in ponytail. This night, no one will be aware that she hasn’t washed her hair right?

Ye Qing Xin takes a deep breath and walks to the parking area.

With a glance, she could recognize Jing Bo Yuan’s white land rover. It stands out from other cars.

She comes over. Her heart beats quicker every time she takes a step closer.

When she almost reaches the car, the driver’s door opens. Jing Bo Yuan comes out. That man is wearing a white shirt and black suit.

She greets him: “Chief Jing, thank you.”

Jing Bo Yuan raises his hand…..

Ye Qing Xin immediately realizes what he wants to do. She responds so quickly and takes a step back. She avoids his touching.

Jing Bo Yuan’s hand stops mid air.

Ye Qing Xin knows that her response is too excessive. It should be hurtful for his pride. Especially a man like Jing Bo Yuan. He should use to everyone’s obedience.

But she also doesn’t do it in purpose.

If she doesn’t avoid it, wouldn’t he rub her oily hair and his hand will turn oily?

Ye Qing Xin is upset and her face turns red.

The atmosphere turns awkward.

The next moment, Ye Qing Xin speaks up: “That…. are you hungry? Let me treat you a late -night snack?”

Jing Bo Yuan retreats his hand and puts it inside his pocket.

He is calm when he hears her question: “What do you want to eat?”

Ye Qing Xin thinks about it: “I know a great sticky rice dumpling restaurant nearby. It’s very good. Do you want to try it?”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t express his opinion and just asks: “Is it far?”

Ye Qing Xin: “Not far, we can walk.”

“Wait for me a while.” Jing Bo Yuan goes back to his car and takes his car key. He locks his car and comes back to Ye Qing Xin’s side. “Let’s go.”

Ye Qing Xin’s heart is so excited. Her face is blushing.

This is the first time she walks side by side with him.

She watches their shadow, it’s like a happy couple.

Ye Qing Xin watches it and smiles. She doesn’t dare to smile too bright. She tried to control it by biting her lips.

She doesn’t know her act of biting her lips is so attractive.

Jing Bo Yuan watches her.

After five or six minutes, they arrive at a snack street.

There’re various of snack stands.

The road is narrow. Ye Qing Xin almost be knocked over by someone. Jing Bo Yuan naturally hugs her shoulder and protects her.

A woman is walking and eating, she passes both of them and is pushed by someone from behind. Her skewer almost pokes on Ye Qing Xin.

Ye Qing Xin hasn’t responded yet, Jing Bo Yuan just pulls her and uses his hand to protect her. That skewer makes Jing Bo Yuan’s whole hand to be full of soya sauce.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” That woman just lowers her head and apologizes.

She raises her head to look at Jing Bo Yuan.

Jing Bo Yuan frowns and takes out his handkerchief. He wipes his hand and throws the handkerchief away.

He hugs Ye Qing Xin and continues to walk.

Ye Qing Xin purses her lips and feels quite pleased.

The feeling of being protected by Jing Bo Yuan is great.

“Is it still far?” They have walked fro a long time, but he looks that Ye Qing Xin has intention to stop so he asks.

Ye Qing Xin points at certain place: “There it is.”

That restaurant is small and only have two tables.

The tables and stools look very oily. An old grandpa is cooking the stick sweet dumpling with both of his dark hands.

Jing Bo Yuan stands in front f the door. He watches the shop without any expression. He doesn’t show intention to get in.

Ye Qing Xin smiles at him: “Chief Jing, let’s get in.”

Jing Bo Yuan frowns, “You always eat in a place like this?”

Even though the old grandpa is old but he has a great hearing skills, “Young man, don’t just judge the place. I dare to say, in this 5 km area, my restaurant is selling the best sticky sweet dumpling. It’s sweet and not greasy. Your girlfriend frequently comes her to eat it, you are her new boyfriend right? You guys are so compatible!”

Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t say anything, his frown is gone. He just gets in.

Ye Qing Xin is blushing. At first she wants to explain but looking at how quiet Jing Bo Yuan is. She just stays quiet.

Jing Bo Yuan looks at the chair for a second, when he is about to sit down…….

Ye Qing Xin hurriedly takes a tissue from the table and helps him to wipe it. Then says: “Chief Jing, please sit down.”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her face a while then sits down.

Ye Qing Xin sits down on the opposite side of him. She says to the old grandpa: “Two bowl of sticky sweet dumpling.”

Old Grandpa says happily: “okay.”

Ye Qing Xin laughs. Suddenly she notices that Jing Bo Yuan is looking at the water traces on the table. She naturally takes a tissue and wipes it for him.

He keeps on watching her.

Until Ye Qing Xin feels unease.

She raises her head and looks at him. She wants to break the silence between them. She says: “Chief Jing, thank you that you can solve all our family difficulties in just one day! You are really great!”

It’s her sincere words.

Jing Bo Yuan: “You should tell me earlier that you are in difficult situation.”

Ye Qing Xin lowers her head. She says: “I…. I’m afraid that you’ll look down at me……”

She waits for a while, but Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t answer her.

Ye Qing Xin raises her head, her hand is wrapped by a large hand of his.

She turns stiff.

“I will not.”

“The sticky sweet dumpling is here!” The old grandpa places two bowls of it on the table.

Ye Qing Xin takes her hand back.

Jing Bo Yuan looks so collected.

Like nothing really happens.

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t dare to raise her head gain. She starts eating the snack one by one.

When she is done, she looks over that Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t eat. He just watches her with a smile.

Ye Qing Xin blinks.

“Why aren’t you eating?”

Jing Bo Yuan answers: “I don’t like sweet-food.”

A person that loves sweet as Ye Qing Xin, she couldn’t understand how can someone doesn’t like sweet things.

She takes the bowl from Jing Bo Yuan’s front and just eats it.

Anyway they need to pay for the other bowl, she shouldn’t waste it.

But with Jing Bo Yuan’s gaze on her, she feels a bit embarrassed. She then takes one dumpling and raises to his front. “Do you want to try one? It’s really good.”

At first, he already says that he doesn’t like sweet things, she also just do it for exchange pleasantries.

Who knows.

Jing Bo Yuan just moves closer and opens his mouth to eat that dumpling.

Ye Qing Xin is startled.

Didn’t he say that he doesn’t like sweet things?

She peeks at her and watches that he enjoys it. How can he not like it?

She looks at the remaining two sweet dumplings on her bowl and takes one and feeds him. Just like that she feeds him three sweet dumpling.

With her chopsticks.

At first it’s Ye Qing Xin that said that she will treat him, but at last it’s Jing Bo Yuan that pays for them.

On the way home, they are walking side by side.

When they are walking, without mindfulness, Ye Qing Xin’s shoulder touches his from time to time. A man’s shoulder is too sturdy and powerful. Ye Qing Xin’s mood become indescribable.

It’s worthy to rely on him.

If he is willing to be her rock.

But Jing Suo Suo said that Jing Bo Yuan is dating.

Ye Qing Xin just controls herself. She doesn’t dare to do anything too daring.

Before she fed him, it’s already overstep a boundary.

Just leave it as her only memory of their togetherness.

Ye Qing Xin slowly tries to distance herself from him.

Jing Bo Yuan notices about it and watches her.

Very quickly they arrive at the lobby of the hospital.

Ye Qing Xin once again thanks him: “Chief Jing’s huge kindness, I’ll remember it forever. Thank you. Next time if there’s a chance, I definitely will repay you.”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her: “Now you have a chance to repay me, do you want it?”

Ye Qing Xin is startled: “What kind of chance?”

Jing Bo Yuan bends lightly and clutches her hand. “Devote one’s life, be my girlfriend, what do you think?”

Be my girlfriend.

Ye Qing Xin has heard these words for so many times. But she never feels these words are so touching.

Ye Qing Xin is at loss.

Jing Bo Yuan says again: “you also like me, right? Since we like each other, then let’s be together.”

At first, he doesn’t want to be so quick. But he feels both of them are attracted to each other so it’s natural.

He clearly knows that she also likes him, but he notices that she tries to put some distance between them? He doesn’t like it.

Ye Qing Xin looks at Jing Bo Yuan with her shining eyes: “I be your girlfriend, then what about your current girlfriend?”

Luckily, she is not being muddled-headed because she is so happy to hear it.

She remembers the important problem.

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her: “My current girlfriend? This period of time you purposely try to distance yourself from me, because of this reason?”

Ye Qing Xin purses her lips and nods.

Jing Bo Yuan pinches her cheek lightly: “Stupid girl, when do you see that I have a girlfriend beside me? I don’t know where did you hear it? But you should feel it, if I have a girlfriend, how can I treat you like this?”

So he means that he doesn’t have a girlfriend?

Ye Qing Xin feels happy. Her eyes is really dazzling now.

Without any hesitation, she clutches his hand and smiles brightly. She says bravely: “Then I am willing to devote my life and give my heart to you.”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her and smiles.

They both look at each other like there only two of them left in the world.

After a while.

Jing Bo Yuan strokes her cheeks and says: “Go back and sleep early. I will be T city for this period of time. You should call me when you are free. I’ll pick you up.”

Ye Qing Xin stands near the window to let the wind blows the hotness of her face.

Ye Qing Xin understands that because now they are in love, he means to go on date.

Her face blushes.

She feels today is her happiest day.

First, her mother can be treated, then Li family gets the consequences of their bad action, Xiao Guo comes out, now…..

She is Jing Bo Yuan’s girlfriend.

It’s too perfect.

Her phone rings.

It’s Jing Bo Yuan’s call.

Ye Qing Xin answers.

“Hi?”

“You aren’t sleeping yet?”

Ye Qing Xin laughs sweetly: “Em.”

“Go sleep quickly, it’s not healthy to stay up late.”

“Goodnight.”

“Goodnight.”

She hangs up and pats her burning face. She tries to calm down and returns to her mother’s sickroom.

Inside the room.

Ye Qing Guo is sleeping on the caregiver’s bed. His sleeping posture is bad. From time to time, he is giggling “hehe…”

Zhou Qiao Qiao looks Ye Qing Xin and asks her: “Where did you go? It’s too late.”

“I went to have dinner with my friend.”

“O.” Zhou Qiao Qiao says: “Go to the bathroom to have shower. Then sleep early. Sorry to trouble you this period fof time.”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t have toiletries here, so she just washes herself.

The time she comes out, she notices that Zhou Qiao Qiao gets off the bed to pick up Ye Qing Guo’s blanket off the floor.

Ye Qing Xin helps her; “ma, just let me do it. Lay down and have a rest.”

Zhou Qiao Qiao smiles: “I’m okay.”

Ye Qing Xin doesn’t agree: “now you are weak, how can you be okay? In the future don’t just get off the bed as you wish. There’re two nurses there, just let them to help you.”

Both of the nurses are sleeping.

Zhou Qiao Qiao rubs Ye Qing Xin’s head: “Okay, I’ll obey Xin Xin.”

Ye Qing Xin helps Zhou Zhou Qiao to retun to her bed. She covers her Ma with the blanket.

Zhou Qiao Qiao suddenly says: “Xin Xin, do you think that I am biased?”

Ye Qing Xin answers: “No.”

“Stupid kid.” Zhou Qiao Qiao says: “I even from time to time, thinks that I am deserved to be hated. You have a great future and youth, but I am too selfish that I simply hold you back……..”
