âAh?â Si Fuqing looked up, surprised. âHow come youâre here?â She had only informed Feng San of her whereabouts.
âI was having dinner nearby and just happened to come by,â Lin Qingchen checked the time. âIâm here to say goodbye to Miss Si. I have a flight at eight and need to leave now.â
âThank you for your hard work,â Si Fuqing nodded in appreciation. âYou really helped me out today. If you ever need anything, just let me know.â
âItâs me who should thank you,â Lin Qingchen smiled again. âMiss Si, youâre always welcome to visit us in Sijiu City.â
Si Fuqing waved, âBye then.â
Yu Yao stood still, unable to process the scene.
By the time he regained his composure, Si Fuqing and Lin Qingchen had already left.
He pursed his lips in thought.
How did Si Fuqing know Lin Qingchen?
They were from completely different circles.
He knew that Great Xia TV was preparing a reality show set in a hospital, but that had no connection to Si Fuqing.
She hadnât even completed high school, let alone understood medicine.
Yu Yao, standing far away, couldnât hear their conversation, but the genuine smile on Lin Qingchenâs face was unmistakable.
Could it be that Si Fuqing had set her sights on entering the prestigious Lin family ofSijiu City?
But the Lins, a scholarly family, wouldnât likely be interested in an actress.
Pushing aside his thoughts, Yu Yao loosened his tie and got into his car.
He felt he should warn the Lin family about this.
In the parking lot behind the mall, Feng San picked up Si Fuqing.
Noticing the several gift boxes she carried, he asked, âMiss Si, what are these?â
âItâs a secret,â Si Fuqing closed the door. âDrive quickly; I canât wait to see the boss.â
Although puzzled, Feng San didnât dare to disobey.
He drove back to the villa at the fastest speed without attracting police attention.
Dinner was ready, prepared by the chef from Linjiang Pavilion â delicious and nutritious.
Yu Tang sat at the dining table as she called out, âQingqing, come eat.â
âComing,â Si Fuqing approached, then paused at a voice by her ear, âWash your hands.â
Si Fuqing and Yu Tang exchanged a speechless look.
Having a parent at the table did diminish the enjoyment of the meal somewhat.
After washing their hands, they sat down again.
âBoss, I have a gift for you,â Si Fuqing said, holding her chopsticks. âWant to see?â
Yu Xiheng tilted his head, curiosity in his eyes.
The girlâs fox-like eyes were bright, resembling a sky-tinted pupil with flowing starlight.
He put down his tea cup and agreed, âMhmm.â
Si Fuqing stood up, excitedly opening the gift boxes, âLook!â
Feng San and Yu Tang leaned in to see.
Yu Tang exclaimed, âWow, so many clothes!â
Feng San was also surprised.
She got him clothes?
Yu Xiheng paused, then smiled lightly.
His amber eyes gazed at her, slightly drooping, âWhat made you think of getting me clothes?â
âI noticed you only wear suits and knitwear, so I picked some different styles,â Si Fuqing pointed to his neatly pressed grey suit. âThough suits do look great on you, trying new styles is important too.â
âYes, yes,â Yu Tang nodded vigorously. âClothes make the man. Qingqingâs right! Uncle Nine, try them on; youâll look even more handsome.â
Feng San instinctively started to speak, âUncle Nine wonâtâIâ
But before he could finish, Yu Xiheng casually picked a box, âThis one.â
Feng San, speechless, pushed the wheelchair towards the dressing room.
During Yu Xihengâs absence, Yu Tang whispered, âUncle Nine is really frugal with clothes. He buys the same style in bulk â just black and grey suits. He really doesnât know how to dress. People his age have various suit styles.â
Si Fuqing nodded in agreement.
As they talked, the sound of the wheelchair approached.
Si Fuqing looked up.
It was as if a soft light broke through the clouds, gently falling and scattering luminous glimmers all around.
Yu Xiheng sat in the wheelchair, backlit by the light, his posture straight and dignified.
The clothes fit him perfectly, highlighting the well-defined muscles on his arms, each curve precisely accentuated.
Si Fuqing rested her chin on her hand.
He wasnât kidding about working out.
Such a physique was undoubtedly the result of years of training.
She applauded herself, âMy taste is really good.â Feng San thought to himself.
So, Miss Si is actuallypraising herself, right?
Si Fuqing then turned to the remaining boxes, âThere are a few more.â Yu Xiheng paused for a moment, his gaze calm and steady on her, âIâll try them tomorrow..â
