Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
Lin Ping looked at Yin Qiqi as a smile appeared on her face. “You’re getting more and more beautiful. The last time I saw you was when you were seven years old. At that time, you followed Wencheng around every day and kept saying that you wanted to marry him.”
Lin Ping did not mean to say that, but Yin Qiqi blushed and said awkwardly, “Auntie, that was when we were young.”
Lin Ping had also been here since she was young. Seeing Yin Qiqi’s reaction, she knew that she liked Gu Wencheng. A certain thought flashed across her mind, and the smile on her face widened a little. “You liked him so much when you were young, but not anymore when you’ve grown up?”
Yin Qiqi blushed and didn’t say anything.
Lin Ping looked on and pulled Yin Qiqi’s hand. “Qiqi is 21 this year, right? Do you have a boyfriend?”
Yin Qiqi pursed her lips and smiled in embarrassment. Mother Yin glanced at her and answered for her. “She’s almost 22. Her father and I think that she is still young, so we are not in a hurry. Moreover, Qiqi has someone she likes, so we are not rushing her.”
Mother Yin’s words contained a lot of information. After hearing it, Lin Ping asked tentatively, “Qiqi has someone she likes? Do I know him?”
Yin Qiqi looked at Lin Ping shyly and timidly.
“It can’t be Gu Wencheng, right?” Lin Ping smiled.
Yin Qiqi’s face turned red instantly. She was a little embarrassed. “Auntie, don’t joke with me. Brother Wencheng is married.”
The smile on Lin Ping’s face froze for a moment. She glanced at Mother Yin and saw that there was no other expression on her face. She then said, “Your Brother Wencheng…You’re still young, so you don’t understand. But I’m quite happy that you still like your Brother Wencheng.”
Mother Yin and Lin Ping were both shrewd people. They knew what each other were saying without them having to speak too much.
“Qiqi,” Lin Ping said,” Wencheng is still short of a dance partner tonight. Are you willing?”
Yin Qiqi was naturally willing.
Lin Ping smiled and pulled Yin Qiqi along to look for Gu Wencheng.
Gu Wencheng was busy socializing. When Lin Ping brought Yin Qiqi over, he had just drunk a glass of white wine. The person who was talking to him saw Lin Ping coming over and left after saying a few words.
“Wencheng, let’s dance together for the opening dance later,” Lin Ping said.
“Opening dance?” Gu Wencheng frowned and looked at Lin Ping.
“Meng Nianyao has already gone back. Do you have other candidates?” Lin Ping asked.
“How did you know Nianyao went back?” Gu Wencheng frowned.
“What do you mean? Are you suspecting me?” Lin Ping realized that she had said the wrong thing. However, there were so many people at the annual meeting, and she believed that Gu Wencheng wouldn’t hold it against her.
“Don’t let me find out that you’re up to no good,” Gu Wencheng warned coldly. With that, he turned around and left.
Yin Qiqi was a little surprised. She hadn’t expected Gu Wencheng to treat his mother like this.
Lin Ping was indeed someone who had seen the world. She quickly composed herself and said, “Qiqi…”
“Auntie, I just remembered that I injured my foot a few days ago.” Yin Qiqi smiled shyly. “The doctor told me not to move around too much. It’s a pity that I can’t dance with Brother Wencheng today.”
Yin Qiqi gave Lin Ping a way out of this predicament. Lin Ping smiled and left after giving her a few instructions.
Meng Nianyao felt very uncomfortable and had a headache. She thought she had a fever again, but the temperature on her forehead was normal. She was dizzy and didn’t know what time it was. She couldn’t help but feel as if there was a figure in front of her. When she opened her eyes, she found Gu Wencheng sitting by the bed.
“You’re back?” Meng Nianyao spoke in a hoarse voice.
“Do you have a fever?” Gu Wencheng raised his head and placed it on Meng Nianyao’s forehead.
Meng Nianyao sat up and shook her head. “No, it’s just that my throat hurts a little.” She wanted to check the time on her phone, but couldn’t reach it, so she could only ask, “What time is it?”
“One in the morning.” Gu Wencheng turned up the light at the head of the bed. “Go to sleep. I’m going to take a shower.”
Meng Nianyao nodded, and Gu Wencheng helped her get a pillow. When she lay down, Gu Wencheng leaned over and kissed her forehead. After Meng Nianyao closed her eyes, he stood up and left.
However, Meng Nianyao didn’t feel sleepy at all; on the contrary, her thoughts became clearer and clearer. About ten minutes later, Gu Wencheng came out of the bathroom. Meng Nianyao closed her eyes and didn’t move. Gu Wencheng lifted the quilt and went to bed.
“Can’t sleep?” Gu Wencheng asked after a while.
Meng Nianyao adjusted her sleeping position and nodded.
“Are you feeling unwell?”
Meng Nianyao shook her head..
