Su Ningqing sat on the car back home, supporting herself with her hands, and looked out the window at the changing of the neon lights. She couldn't get rid of the despairing look in her head.

"What are you thinking about?" Qin Yuan asked as he drove. From the moment he came out of the auditorium, she had been staring at the outside without saying a word.

When he was playing tricks on her, she only thought that he was still the same delinquent from before. But after all, so many years had passed, and the current Qin Yuan was someone who killed and massacred people in the market.

Such a person was very terrifying.

All her life, she had been looking for peace and harmony, plain and simple.

"I was wondering if everything that happened at today's wedding was planned by you." Although she was a little afraid, Su Ningqing still answered Qin Yuan's question truthfully.

Qin Yuan's mouth formed a warm smile, "Qing Qing, being with you is really very easy, I will never worry about you lying or lying to me."

"I'm just too stupid to beat around the bush. I'm too lazy to understand and think too much into things." Su Ningqing said, "Actually, this is not a good quality."

"Who told you that this is not a good quality?" Qin Yuan asked.

"A lot of people say that."

"That's because they don't understand such a thing."

Su Ningqing said as she continued looking out of the window. Qin Yuan faintly shook his head and thought, Qingqing, your reaction is really slow, but that's also good. He didn't want to continue the topic of Chen Nianan, and he also didn't want to leave a bad impression on Qingqing.

The car stopped in front of the entrance to the residential complex. Qin Yuan opened the car door and handed a jacket to Su Ningqing. The two of them lived in the same building, and it was very convenient to go between the doors and the doors. Just as Su Ningqing said goodbye and was about to close the door, Qin Yuan reached out to block the door, "Do you want to kiss me goodbye?"

"No." After Su Ningqing finished speaking, before she even had the time to close the door, Qin Yuan bent over and lightly tapped her warm red lips, "It's good now, good night."

The door slowly closed, causing Su Ningqing to be unable to react. Why was this person always so sudden?

The night wind was cool, but Su Ningqing's face was slightly hot.

A few days later, after she finished her work at the studio, Su Ningqing bought a bunch of lilies and paid a visit to Chen Nianan at the hospital. Although the Chen and Shen Families had caused quite a ruckus at the wedding, Chen Nianan and Shen Shen had already registered to be married.

Just as Su Ningqing walked to the entrance of the hospital, she heard Shen Huixin's voice from inside, "Nianan, we don't have any more children, our hearts are as hurt as you are, Ah Shen is being dishonest about this, we already said it before, don't take it to heart."

Chen Nianan's child was gone? Su Ningqing's heart trembled, following that, Chen Nianan's voice came out from the ward, "The Shen family already has a son, of course they wouldn't care if the child in my stomach survived or not."

"Nianan, what are you saying?" Shen Huixin said in a slightly reprimanding tone, "You are the Shen family's legal wife, and Ah Shen's legal wife. We value you more than others do."

"Is that so?" Chen Nianan sneered, "How come I heard that the Shen family went to another garden to raise that woman?"

Shen Huixin's face turned ugly when she heard that, and she continued to speak, "You don't have to hide it from me, I, Chen Nianan am not a blabbering little girl, and I'm just injured to the point that I can't conceive. You think I'm really willing to give birth to your Shen family? "

"Nianan?"

"It can't be good." Chen Nianan said gloomily, "You let that woman take good care of her body, and you also let Shen Shen take good care of the both of them. "Big sister Hui Xin, I'm not you, I'm not as tolerant as you."

"What do you mean?" Shen Huixin was a little angry, "Are you not going to listen to what I have to say?"

"I agree." After a few days, I'll be better and I'll be discharged. How can I not listen to Sister Hui Xin's lessons that I've endured for most of my life? " Chen Nianan chuckled, "Didn't I ask Big Sister Hui Xin to tell Ah Chen to take good care of the mother and son? As the wife of the Shen family, I am unable to bear children. Someone to help me give birth, isn't that good as well? "

"You …" Shen Huixin angrily opened the door and bumped into Su Ningqing, the space between her eyebrows creased, "Why are you here?"

"Sister-in-law, she accompanied me to visit Miss Chen." Qin Yuan, who was walking side by side with his big brother, arrived in front of Su Ningqing in large strides. Just as Su Ningqing was about to explain that she came over by herself, Qin Yuan pinched her waist.

"Is that so?" Shen Huixin looked at Su Ningqing suspiciously, "Since Miss Su is here, it should have been quite a while, right?"

Qin Yuan gave a wolfy smile and then looked at Su Ningqing with a slightly reproachful gaze, "Did I really make you wait for me here for a very long time? Why didn't you make a phone call? "

Su Ningqing frowned slightly, and removed the hand that Qin Yuan had placed on his waist without leaving a trace. She smiled, "They are all here to see a patient, why are you blocking the door? "Let's all go in."

Su Ningqing carried the lily and walked in. When she saw Qin Yuan, a sense of hope welled up in his originally dead heart. Soon after, she saw Su Ningqing carrying the lily and the smile on his face instantly faded.

"Why are you here?" Chen Nianan ignored the others and directly asked Su Ningqing. Su Ningqing passed the flower to her, "I'm just a little worried."

"Qingqing, you really are as kind as before." Chen Nianan sarcastically said. Qin Hai gave Shen Huixin a look and the two of them made an excuse and went out.

Chen Nianan looked coldly at Qin Yuan, "Fourth Young Master Qin, please tell me honestly in front of Qingqing. Regarding the wedding, are you doing it to suppress the Shen family?"

Hearing Chen Nianan's question, Su Ningqing's cold gaze also landed on him. That's right, she seemed to have asked this question when they were going back that day, but the topic had changed.

"Why would Miss Chen think that I did it?" Qin Hai gave Chen Nianan a warning look, and indifferently swept over Su Ningqing, "Everything is just a coincidence."

"Coincidence? "Why do I feel like it's so hard to believe after Fourth Young Master said those words?" Chen Nianan looked at Su Ningqing, "Qingqing, tell me, do you believe me?"

Su Ningqing honestly shook her head. In fact, she had already guessed that it was Qin Yuan's doing since a long time ago.

Chen Nianan curled her lips in understanding, and her right hand slowly slapped the back of Su Ningqing's hand again and again, "Qingqing, those who come out of the Qin Family are all demons. Once you offend them, they'll die without even knowing how.

Chen Nianan spoke very slowly, as if she was speaking with an ethereal terror that came from hell. Even though Qin Yuan had pulled Su Ningqing away in time, she still felt her hair stand on end.

Chen Nianan smiled lightly, "Qing Qing, thank you for your flowers. If you have time, let's talk."

"No need, Qing Qing shouldn't have anything to talk about with you." Qin Yuan spoke first, but Su Ningqing walked over to the bedside of her bed and apologized in a serious tone, "Nianan, I was really worried about you today, so I wanted to come over to take a look. If my arrival displeases you, I apologize. I'm sorry. "

Looking at Su Ningqing's serious expression, Chen Nianan was a little moved. Other than her parents, in these few days, whether it was the people from the Shen family or the people from the Qin Family, most of them came to see her for their own benefits. How many could possibly truly care about her?

But, Qin Yuan, why would she lose to Su Ningqing?

Even if Su Ningqing wasn't the current Su Ningqing, when she was just an ugly and fat wild girl, she still lost?

She could not accept it, why, why was it Su Ningqing!

Leaving the hospital room, there were rows and rows of willow trees outside. Su Ningqing followed quietly by Qin Yuan's side all the way to the door to check the time, before slowly saying, "I still have things to do tonight, so I'll be leaving first."

Qin Yuan grabbed Su Ningqing, "I'll give it to you."

"I drove here. Even if you give me a ride, I'll come back and get my car."

"Then why don't you give it to me? My family has a lot of cars, so I don't care about one or two of them." Qin Yuan was shameless. Ripples appeared on Su Ningqing's forehead, "Ah Xu and I have some matters to discuss, so we will return to the apartment very late."

"That's great. I also want to go there for some business. We'll take the road."

"Qin Yuan, although my reaction is slow, I'm not stupid. Do you know where I made an appointment with Ah Xu?"

"No matter where we go, it's along the way." What a joke, with Lin Xu being such a bitter melon who had a crush on him for many years, how could he let them date alone? Qin Yuan pulled Su Ningqing's hand and walked towards the parking spot.

Su Ningqing had no choice but to let him be, and Qin Yuan's roguish ways of doing things also removed some of the unhappiness and worry Su Ningqing had for him.

Hearing Chen Nianan's words, are you afraid? Su Ningqing looked ahead and asked. Su Ningqing nodded, "I don't understand you, nor do I understand Qin Family. Actually, you don't know what happened to me all these years, nor do you understand me."

"Then we'll start to understand one by one." Qin Yuan's brows twitched, "Qingqing, after you understand me, you will realize that I'm an extremely gentle, considerate, and emotional perfect lover."

"Pfft!" Su Ningqing could not help but laugh, "I don't believe you."

"Then let's do it one by one." Qin Yuan gave a clear smile, revealing two rows of large white teeth, "Qing Qing, why are you together with Shen Shen?"

Su Ningqing was slightly stunned, she seemed to have forgotten how it started with Shen Shen.

He lost some of his memories after the car accident three years ago, and at that time, Shen Shen was her boyfriend.

Afterwards, under the meticulous care of her mother and Shen Shen, her memories gradually recovered. Since then, she had always been together with Shen Shen and had never thought of breaking up with him.

"It seems to be because there aren't any unexpected things when I'm with Shen Shen. My days are very simple and very smooth." Su Ningqing said as she steered the car, "I think it's good to live a simple life like that."

"In the past, Mom and Dad would argue for two days, and then argue for three days. I felt that arguing was very annoying, so I longed to find someone who could live together peacefully and not lose their temper."

"Qingqing."

"Hmm?"

"It's too boring." Qin Yuan looked at Su Ningqing seriously, and Su Ningqing muttered, "Perhaps, but I think that I must have had feelings for Shen Shen. After staying by his side for a while, I became accustomed to it, and forgot the feelings I had when I was moved."

Qin Yuan let out a long sigh, as if his hard work wasn't enough. Qing Qing didn't seem to hold much grudge against Shen Shen even until now.

"Alright, Qing Qing, it's your turn to ask me."

Su Ningqing thought for a while, then Qin Yuan acted as though he was wronged and asked her, "We've been together for so long, do you not have any curiosity towards me?"

"There are a lot of them. That's why I'm thinking about which one to ask."

"Is that so? Are you curious about me? " Qin Yuan's lips curved upwards, "Qing Qing, did you know? A famous scholar once told me that the more curious you are towards a person, the faster love will come."

Su Ningqing glared at him, "I've never heard of such nonsense." She thought for a moment. "So, you said you liked me from the beginning. When was that?"

"Qingqing, I noticed that your face is also very thick."

"Hmm?" Su Ningqing stopped in front of a high class dining hall, and turned to look at her, "How can I be shameless?"

Qin Yuan also turned around, staring straight into her moist eyes, "Normally, normal girls would be shy and act like a spoiled child, not letting you be like this. Put on a scholar's face, be serious, and ask without any interest."

"However …" Qin Yuan accidentally kissed Su Ningqing on the forehead, "I like you like that."

Su Ningqing pushed him away in shock, her face scrunched up like a bun, "Don't be like that."

Qin Yuan grabbed Su Ningqing's neck with her right hand, "Previously, I didn't know when exactly, but that famous scholar was me."

Qin Yuan laughed, and then stuck his forehead onto Su Ningqing's, "From the moment you ran to the back of the 800 meters long crane, bringing all the free snacks, chasing the bus and telling me to wait for a small bag of bread, I was already curious about you. By the time I came to my senses, you, ah, I have already fallen for you."

Su Ningqing's eyes widened as she looked at Qin Yuan without moving, her cheeks flushed red. "Then why didn't you tell me?"

"Yes, yes." Qin Yuan pressed a finger on Su Ningqing's red lips, "This is the next question, let's continue chatting next time."

Qin Yuan let go of Su Ningqing and opened the car door, "Qingqing, if you don't get out soon, you'll be late."

Su Ningqing touched her cheek that was burning hot, picked up her bag, walked down from the other side and locked the car.

Qin Yuan raised his head and looked at this Michelin restaurant in the darkness. The restaurant was surrounded by circle after circle of colored lights, and in front of the wide window was a colorful music fountain. Through the window, he could clearly see the situation inside the Michelin restaurant.

Inside the dining room, there was a handsome and dazzling man in a suit sitting by the window. On the table in front of him, there was a white tablecloth with exquisite candlelight placed on it.

candlelight for dinner and Qin Yuan was muttering to himself, as expected, it was not as simple as light talk.

Right now, he really wanted to know what kind of expression Lin Xu would have when he and Qing Qing came out together.

Su Ningqing and Qin Yuan walked into the dining hall one after another. As Qin Yuan wished, when he saw the stiff expression on Lin Xu's face, he casually took the initiative to extend his hand and greet him. "Hello, we met last time."

"Of course, Director Qin, Fourth Young Master Qin, I remember." Lin Xu politely shook his hand back, at the same time, he secretly exerted himself. Anyone with slightly better eyesight would come over and see the arrangement of the situation and immediately leave. After giving up their seat, Qin Yuan swaggered over, looks like he was doing it on purpose.

Qin Yuan did not back off at all and used all his strength. Of course it was on purpose, how could he let the woman he liked be snatched away?

The two of them fought back and forth with each other. Their eyes were filled with fire and light, and even their hands were numb. Su Ningqing, who was standing at the side, was also confused, "Why are you two holding it for so long?"

Qin Yuan smiled and at the same time, released Lin Xu's hand, "It seems like it's the same at first sight."

It was a candlelight dinner for three people, it was really the most tragic candlelight dinner in the world, and amidst the romantic music, Su Ningqing even asked in all seriousness, "Ah Xu, you invited me over to discuss something important, what is it?"

Lin Xu gritted his teeth and looked at Qin Yuan, trying his best to keep a smile on his face, "It's about the French J Family's design competition."

"Did something go wrong with the draft?"

"It's just a small matter. Before you came, you called and said that it had already been resolved." Lin Xu said, "But since you're already here, let's eat together."

"What a coincidence." Qin Yuan deeply sighed, then smiled, "Speaking of coincidence, isn't Young Master Qin more coincidental than me?"

"There's nothing I can do about it. As a person, my biggest weakness is that my luck is too good."

Qin Yuan and Lin Xu clashed back and forth. Su Ningqing once again realised that she did not have enough intelligence, she still could not understand the riddle they were fighting, so she decided to focus on eating instead.

Qin Yuan cut the steak on his plate into small pieces, and handed it over to Su Ningqing. Surprisingly, at the same time, Lin Xu also passed it over, and the two of them looked at each other, and Su Ningqing said awkwardly, "Although I am greedy, I am not a pig, you two don't have to do this, right?"

Qin Yuan laughed and said, "Qing Qing, this one that I cut is a bit smaller than mine."

Lin Xu also smiled and said, "Qingqing, my plate is relatively symmetrical."

Su Ningqing's left hand caught hold of Qin Yuan, her right hand caught hold of Lin Xu's hand, crossing his hands, she placed Lin Xu's hand in front of Qin Yuan, "Alright, you guys eat, I have my own hands."

After a while, the waiter brought the dessert, the banana boat, and in the bright light of the lamp, a hollow heart-shaped diamond necklace.

"Huh?" Just as Su Ningqing was about to pick it up, Qin Yuan quickly took it away. "What a beautiful necklace, is it for me?"

Lin Xu snatched the necklace from Qin Yuan's hands, "Young Master Qin, this is a woman's necklace." Lin Xu stood up, walked to Qing Qing's side and grabbed her long hair, slowly putting on the necklace on her smooth and clean neck.

Su Ningqing picked up the pendant. It was an exquisite, cute, and careful pendant, very beautiful, it was hard to not be liked by others.

"Qingqing." Qin Yuan joked, "Your studio's welfare is not bad, your work is excellent and you even have rewards."

Su Ningqing looked at Lin Xu with his watery eyes, "Is this a prize?"

"This is a present I gave you, as …"

Before he could even finish speaking the word suitor, Qin Yuan who was drinking and drinking suddenly coughed violently. Lin Xu's words were interrupted, and he looked at Qin Yuan in displeasure, "Young Master Qin's clothes are all wet, don't you need to go to the bathroom to clean them up?"

"If your clothes are wet, wipe them clean. I don't like the bathroom in this restaurant."

Su Ningqing lightly patted Qin Yuan's back as he looked back and forth between Qin Yuan and Lin Xu. The atmosphere between the two of them didn't seem to be right from the start, but why was it so?

She looked down at the heart-shaped necklace around her neck.

"Ah Xu, has my work been outstanding recently?"

Lin Xu shook his head, and looked towards Qin Yuan, "Don't you think that it's a little too late, Young Master Qin?"

"It is indeed very late." Qin Yuan said indifferently, "Since that's the case, Qingqing, let's go home together. Oh, by the way, Mr. Lin doesn't seem to know yet.

Cough cough, this time it was Su Ningqing who choked. As she coughed, she explained, "He just moved over, I want to meet him."

"Young Master Qin is really fast."

"Thanks to you, I've always been very strong." Qin Yuan replied, "Actually, I also admire Mister Lin's patience. Not everything can be done without any complaints or regrets, not fighting over it and waiting for so long."

To be able to stay by Qing Qing's side for so many years and stand quietly in the position of a friend, this kind of patience really made him feel inferior.

"Qingqing." Seeing that Qin Yuan was determined to keep pestering her, Lin Xu turned and attacked to break Su Ningqing, "I'll send you home in a while."

Su Ningqing drank a little water, "I drove here."

Answer Lin Xu and answer were both the same, but then he thought about it and replied with the same thing, doesn't that mean that in her heart, he and Lin Xu were of the same rank?

Thinking about that, the smile on Qin Yuan's face instantly faded.

"It doesn't matter." Lin Xu said, "Then walk with me for a while, I have something to say to you."

"Mr. Lin, I came in a light carriage." Qin Yuan said, "We will naturally leave in a light carriage later."

"Mr. Qin can wait for us in the carriage." Lin Xu said coldly, "I have something to say to Qingqing."

Before Qin Yuan could say anything, Su Ningqing asked curiously, "What are you talking about? Now tell me, I'm curious. "

Lin Xu suddenly had the urge to smash into a wall, he leaned back and looked out the window, but did not say a word, Qin Yuan's head was lowered and was about to go crazy from laughter.

Su Ningqing looked at the two men innocently. Did she say something wrong?

Ah Xu seemed to have something to say, which was why she asked. Why did the two of them toss her one, making her look so idiotic that she would not speak?

In the midst of his silence, at nine o'clock sharp, flames were released from the window. One after another, the fireworks were dazzling in the sky, leaving everyone unable to take their eyes off them.

Qin Yuan looked at Lin Xu who was still feeling depressed, he did not expect Lin Xu to appear to be serious and serious, and even start making romantic moves one after another.

However, while romance was right, people were wrong.

The best way to deal with a slow little idiot was not to be romantic.

Qin Yuan could not help but feel a little proud, as he understood his family's Qingqing best.

Thinking about this, Qin Yuan couldn't help but reach out and rub Su Ningqing's head a few times. Su Ningqing was so focused on the fireworks outside, she didn't pay any attention to them.

Not to mention that the candlelight dinner that he had painstakingly prepared had been ruined, the necklace that he had gifted to Qin Yuan had even turned into a studio's bonus due to Qin Yuan's marriage. The result was that Qin Yuan had been given the chance to blame and eat the tofu.

When he bid farewell to Su Ningqing, he seemed to be devoid of energy.

After Su Ningqing drove back home, she bid farewell to Qin Yuan. She touched the necklace on her neck, and carefully thought back to what happened that night, as though she had forgotten about something.

Dinner, necklace, fireworks, wouldn't that be too much of a coincidence?

What was even more coincidental was that when Su Ningqing seemed to be about to have an epiphany, a youngster from an unknown clan had released a string of fireworks outside the balcony.
