Chapter 625 - The day we first met

Like a little boy, Lin Ye was pacified by her words. She said that she would cook a delicious meal exclusively for him! How could he not be happy?  

Yun Xuan had finished all her work before leaving the Lin residence so she stayed to chat with him for a while. 

Her phone rang. It was a reminder she had set. 

"You should go back to hospital next week to have your eyes checked. Shall I make an appointment?" 

Lin Ye's ears turned scarlet. He had heard her phone ring then she said this. Had she set a reminder on her phone regarding the day he should go to hospital? 

Yun Xuan took a look at him and seemed to understand his sudden smile. 

She felt embarrassed. "I have always kept a calendar  and set reminders for my Feng's immunization schedule; I didn't want to forget it so...." her voice trailed off. What was she explaining? 

While her words were meant to clear a misunderstanding, they in fact deepened it. 

She made it sound like his health was as important to her as her son's was. 

Lin Ye's heart was filled with a kind of happiness he had never experienced before. He knew that this could be considered an illusion he was creating in his mind but he wanted to enjoy it while it lasted. In fact, he didn't want her to explain the meaning of her actions. 

"Will you accompany me to the hospital?" He asked in his signature pleading tone that was just too irresistible. 

Yun Xuan couldn't bring herself to say no. "Okay, I will clear my schedule. How does Monday sound?" 

"Okay." He didn't have anything to do anyway. 

Yun Xuan made a note to call the hospital later. "Then, if there's nothing else..." 

"Xuanxuan, I need your help with something." 

"What is it?" 

"Could you help me send some drafts to my boss? They are in my safe." As though he knew that she would be surprised, he proceeded to explain. "They are past drafts that I made out of boredom but are still relevant." 

Yun Xuan nodded in understanding. "But your safe... you want me to take something from your safe?" Wasn't his level of trust too dangerous? 

"There's nothing important in there." Lin Ye explained, though the most important things were in that very safe. He just trusted her too much. 

"It's in my room; on the wall on the left side of the bed. You will see it as soon as you get in. The passcode is 0315." 

"Okay." Yun Xuan rushed up the stairs. 

0315....

Why was she slightly disappointed? 

Men would usually have their loved ones' birthdays as their passcodes, right? At least that was what she had seen in movies and novels. 

Strangely, she had expected his passcode to be her birthday. After all, his phone's password was Yun Feng's birthday. 

In the next moment, she thought of a possibility. Perhaps it was because if he had her birthday for a passcode, guessing it would be easy as pie. No one would want such an obvious password, right? 

"Yun Xuan, don't be silly." She scolded herself. 

She was being childish right now. Why would she care about such a thing? 

...

Meanwhile, Lin Ye held a hand over his chest and his lips curled into a silly smile. 

He always felt this way every time he locked or unlocked his safe. 

The passcode was the date they met officially.  How could he not feel this way? 

Before that, he had only seen her from a distance and asked about her. 

But the day he could consider their first meeting was the 15th of March, when he had his interview in YX Brand. 

He couldn't help recalling how on the 14th of March, he had been so overjoyed about seeing her the next day that he hadn't slept a wink. 

He had gone to the interview with his eye bags so heavy and dark that the interviewers were startled when they lay their eyes on him. 

Actually, he was going to be rejected for that interview because he was sloppy after staying up all night. 

Just when he stood to leave with a heart full of disappointment, the blond-haired woman who had been silent the whole time suddenly spoke up in a voice sweeter than the blossoming flowers in spring, her beautiful blue eyes as bright as the sun rays seeping in through the window. "Wait, I think he has potential." 

...

Lin Ye laughed at his past self. He had been so overjoyed by that one statement that he dashed to his car, shouting like a lunatic. 

He was even pulled over by the cops who mistakenly thought that he was driving while drunk.

By this time, Yun Xuan had reached the second floor. 

She had not been told which room was the master bedroom so she had to check. 

It was the room next to hers. 

Wait! Did she just think of it as her room? Her brain must be fried. She was thinking too much today. 

Pushing those crazy thoughts out of her brain, she walked into the huge bedroom. 

Unlike what she had imagined, it was not a dull-themed room typical of most men. 

Instead, everything was in purple and white with a hint of gold. 

The three colors blended into each other perfectly, nothing looking out of place. It neither looked too manly nor too girlish; just a perfect balance of both.

Even she who had grown up in a luxurious mansion was awed. "As expected of a top designer." 

But.... something didn't feel right about the theme of this room. She just couldn't figure out what it was and didn't want to because it was none of her business. 

As she looked around for the safe, her gaze fell on something near the window. 

Upon closer inspection, it was a white toy Lamborghini big enough for a toddler to fit in. It was still in its transparent case. 

"How...gorgeous." she murmured. 

Then she realized the writing on a sticker stuck onto the case. [Happy 1st birthday, Yun Feng.] 

Her eyes went wide. Huh? What did she see? For Yun Feng? 

Wait, that wasn't the main point here. 

Yun Feng's birthday had already passed two months ago. Did this mean he had intended to gift this to him?
