chapter 47
Qin Yufei felt this period was the happiest she had ever been in her life. When she thinks back to the time she was hiding from Gu Yingjie and thinking nonsense every day, she just wants to give herself a slap on the face and curse: “Nuts!”
She was also glad that it was Gu Yingjie, who was the only one who was so patient and tolerant of her. She felt very lucky.
Anyway, after Gu Yingjie’s visit to her home, Qin Yufei felt that a switch in her heart had been flipped. And that courage and energy had suddenly flooded in, filling her heart and every cell of her body.
She couldn’t even understand her past self, why she was afraid? Why did she not dare to admit that she liked him? Why so scared to ask for love?
Love is so beautiful, the feeling of happiness is so beautiful.
Although Qin Wenyi did not ask too much about his daughter and Gu Yingjie’s development and he did not ask to meet Gu Yingjie to talk, but there seems to be a hidden card that has not been shown. And Mrs. Gu hasn’t said she wants to meet Qin Yufei, even if she knows that the Qin family has met her son and confirmed their relationship, but she is very calm.
Although this and that, but Qin Yufei is not worried anymore, not afraid. No matter what happens at the end, she feels she can fully cope.
She was in an excellent mood, so good that she forgot to question Gu Yingjie about what he was talking about on the phone that night and why the phone didn’t connect for quite some time. She went to work happily, calling Gu Yingjie to ask what he was doing, reporting what she was doing, then what she had for lunch, what people she met at work, and so on.
Gu Yingjie is also very cooperative with her, and then the two talk for a while about boring things.
The weekend after meeting the Qin parents, Gu Yingjie moved out of the mansion and went back to live in his own house.
He felt that his mother could now accept this in her heart, but she still needed some time to consider it, and as for what to consider, Gu Yingjie felt it was actually more of a face-saving issue.
But Mrs. Gu suddenly said on Thursday night that she was going shopping at a certain mall on Sunday and asked her son to move out and not bother her all day. And complain that he comes home so late every day, only knows work and dating, only uses the house as a place to sleep, just look at it makes her tired.
Gu Yingjie knew that this was because the mother felt sorry for him, let him have a good relationship, and hinted him about her whereabouts, so he also said, “What a coincidence, Yufei and I also want to go shopping on the weekend.”
Mrs. Gu said nothing. Gu Yingjie felt that this was tacit approval. Implied permission for the two of them to have a chance encounter with her at the mall.
As soon as he got off work on Friday, Gu Yingjie hurried back to his house and opened the door. A figure swooped in and hugged him, kissing him hard on the lips.
Gu Yingjie sincerely kissed back until that person begging him for mercy.
“You’re leaving early again.” He released her and pinched her nose. Her company was far away, and at the same closing time, she couldn’t have arrived earlier than him.
Qin Yufei laughed and hugged him with another kiss. “I want to surprise you.”
“When your father dislikes me for abducting you from working seriously, you must speak for me.” Gu Yingjie pretended to sigh, then added, “Forget it. You’ll probably be more guilty if you help me speak.”
“How annoying.” Qin Yufei pouted her lips. “You should be surprised, hug and spin me around and say, wow, why are you here?” She gestured her arms in a ring hug pose and taught him how to speak in an exaggerated tone.
Gu Yingjie laughed until he couldn’t. Qin Yufei pushed him, “Come on.”
Gu Yingjie laughed, but did not move. Qin Yufei pouted, just about to act some little temper, suddenly picked up by him and spun around several times. She was so scared that she screamed and heard Gu Yingjie laughing loudly and said, “Are you a child? Do you have to play like this?”
Qin Yufei also laughed and screamed, “Wrong line, wrong line, need to start over!”
Gu Yingjie stopped and tilted his head to look at her, her cheeks were pink and her eyes were shining, she was really pretty. “Say the line I just said.” She teased.
He held her high and suddenly let go to catch her horizontally instead. She was startled again and wailed as he carried her to the living room and threw her onto the couch. “Wow, I can’t believe you’re here.” He said, but the tone was not at all that of her version of guidance, but magnetic and deep, gentle and charming.
Qin Yufei lies on the couch and looks him in the eyes, then stretches her arms down to take his head and kiss him again. “You said it wrong. It should be. Why are you here?”
“Okay, why are you here?” He was behaving and changed his tune.
“This is my boyfriend’s house!” She exclaimed, “I can come if I want to.”
“Hmm.” Gu Yingjie nodded, “That’s really true. Your boyfriend must be very happy, and he would be even happier if you could stay in.”
“Then is he afraid that my father might break his legs?”
Gu Yingjie blinked, “Kinda scared.”
Qin Yufei slapped him hard: “You should say not afraid, not afraid of anything.”
“It’s not good to lie, right?” He teased her with a smile.
“It’s not called lying.” She justified, “It’s called a strategic sweet talk. That’s what women like to hear.”
“Allright. I’m not afraid of anything for you.” Gu Yingjie finished fluently and added, “It’s your turn.”
“My turn to what?”
“It’s your turn to say. Strategic sweet talk, hurry, men love to hear this.”
Qin Yufei giggled and turned her head to the side to play hard. Gu Yingjie tickled her, “Hurry and say it, or I would suffer more.”
“It is proper for a man to suffer.” Qin Yufei isn’t embarrassed at all.
“Sounds quite reasonable.” Gu Yingjie pretended to be fierce.
Qin Yufei smiled sweetly, “Therefore you should quickly thank me for being willing to let you suffer.”
“Okay. To show my gratitude to you, I’m going to announce to you we’re going shopping and casually meeting my mom on Sunday.”
Qin Yufei’s smile stiffened.
“After you take care of my mom, my dad’s hurdle is not a problem.”
Qin Yufei got serious: “Sunday?”
“Yes.”
“The day after tomorrow?”
“That’s right.”
“Ah.” Qin Yufei pushed Gu Yingjie away and sat up. “Then I’m going to get my hair and nails done tomorrow, and I’m going to buy a new dress.”
“No need to be so nervous. My mother will eat no one. She just want to save face, also this is informal appointment, probably worried that everyone is too formal, she will also be embarrassed. So she said she was going shopping on Sunday, specifically told me where she would go, we will also go shopping, and then meet up with her, be more natural, and eat together.”
Qin Yufei froze. “Your mother actually likes this kind of theater-style meeting, ah.”
“I actually think she is a bit like you in personality. Both are hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, like to save face, and then to find good reasons for themselves to get off the stage.”
“I’m not!” Qin Yufei was in denial.
“Anyway, she wants to meet like this, so just satisfy her.”
“Sure.” Qin Yufei asked which mall, decided to go first tomorrow to check the location. “I’m going to look at what is suitable for gifts there in advance, and then we buy it when we go there, when we met your Mom, we told her we had just bought it for her.” Qin Yufei calculated this would not seem too intentional and too flattering, and no one would feel awkward.
“Checking the location? Rehearse in advance?” Gu Yingjie laughed: “I’ve told you, you two are looking alike.”
“No!” Qin Yufei glanced at him. Originally, she wanted to spend a sweet weekend here, but now the plan has changed. It has become a battle weekend.
Tomorrow she has to go to the mall, buy new clothes, do her hair and nails, ah, and buy a new pair of shoes as well. It’s a busy day tomorrow, too busy.
And also nervous.
Qin Yufei exhaled and suddenly said to Gu Yingjie, “You give me your phone.”
“What for?”
“I’m going to give myself a little more confidence in the battle.”
“You will not delete your number again, are you?”
“Am I sick of deleting the number? Come on.”
Gu Yingjie gave her the phone and smoothly circled her into his arms, leaning his head on her shoulder to see what she was going to do.
Qin Yufei pulled herself out of the address book and changed the word “Qin Yufei” to “girlfriend”.
Gu Yingjie smiled, “Give me your phone.”
Qin Yufei handed him her phone. Gu Yingjie also changed his name on her phone to “boyfriend”.
“Great king ah,” He said while changing it, “Did I ever tell that you look quite mature, but you do a lot of things that are very childish?”
“You’re also having a lot of fun.” She had to give him a big glare again. Just talking about her, he himself is still childish so much.
“Okay. I feel so handsome after I changed my name.” Gu Yingjie gave her back her phone, then dialed her number and saw the words “boyfriend” pop up on her phone, smiling like he had stolen honey. “Great King, after some time, we can change the name again.”
“Change it to what?”
“To future husband, future wife. Then after some more time, we can change it to Husband, Wife.” He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her lips, “One stage to win, not too fast and not too impetuous. Very good, right?”
Qin Yufei bit her lips, a little yearning for this future. Not too fast and not too impetuous. He really understands her. He knows how she will be at ease. She hoped that this future would really come true. “Yes!” She said with strength and determination.
The next day, Qin Yufei got up unusually early. She had a full schedule today and had to make the most of it. But when she was leaving the house, Gu Yingjie received a call from the company. The Mingde’s side of the batch of goods has problems, because of the human errors from the middle management, stirred up a big mess. Although Wang Cheng said he was there to deal with it, but Gu Yingjie is not assured. He still wants to go over and monitor it.
Qin Yufei graciously let him go. “I’m so sensible and generous, I won’t hold you back in the serious business. Go if you want to, and you have to treat me to a delicious meal in the evening.”
Gu Yingjie agreed.
So the two people split up.
Qin Yufei’s first move is to go to the mall, intended to step in the morning to find gifts, buy clothes and shoes, then in the afternoon to do the hair salon, and have a date with Gu Yingjie in the evening. Take an early rest, make sure that tomorrow she is glowing and beautiful, at least the appearance can add some points.
She strolled around. She couldn’t decide what gift to buy, so she secretly took a picture with her phone first, intending to go back and discuss it with Gu Yingjie. And then strolled into a fashion store, is her favorite brand, she has a lot of clothes and bags from this brand. She goes in to see what is new. In the middle of looking through, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.
“Ah Ci, you mean she likes this brand, right?”
Qin Yufei took a couple of seconds to remember who this voice was.
She jolted and subconsciously looked back. Ah, it’s really Gu Yingjie’s mother!
Mrs. Gu was talking on the phone, when she turned her head, she also saw Qin Yufei.
Both of them were dumbfounded.
Qin Yufei hurriedly put on a smiling face. “Mrs. Gu, hello. Ah, I mean, hello auntie.”
Mrs. Gu hung up the phone, obviously also a bit surprised, and responded, “What a coincidence.”
Yes, did you also come to check on the spot?
Qin Yufei desperately smiled, so nervous that she didn’t know how to speak well.
