Chapter 107 I just want to stay with you for a while
Lin Yanrong was frightened into silence by Lin Shuhuai's sharp glance. She had originally wanted to mutter a few complaints, but now she had to swallow them back into her stomach.
When she passed by Ye Wanqing, she couldn't help but turn the dissatisfaction into a subtle look, which was gently cast at Ye Wanqing.
Zhao Jinyu caught this scene, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she jokingly said, "Miss Lin, are your eyes uncomfortable?"
His words drew the attention of the Lin family to Lin Yanrong, causing her face to suddenly pale and turn pale. She forced a smile, gently rubbing the corners of her eyes, and said, "It's just a little sand that got in, but it's nothing serious."
Seeing this, Ye Wanqing smiled faintly and reminded softly, "Miss Lin, you should be more careful. I noticed that you looked uncomfortable just now."
Ye Wanqing's words made Lin Shuhuai and Mrs. Lin instantly understand what had happened. Lin Shuhuai's face darkened instantly, and he said unhappily, "Since your eyes are uncomfortable, don't go out and walk around, lest people laugh at you."
Lin Yanrong's resentment towards Zhao Jinyu and Ye Wanqing grew like weeds, but due to Lin Shuhuai's majesty, she could only lower her head and remain silent.
Mrs. Lin sighed softly and said, "Let's go to the hospital and don't delay."
After saying that, she took the lead and continued forward. Lin Shuhuai gently tugged at Lin Yanrong's sleeve, signaling her to follow. Lin Xuan walked last. His gaze lingered on Ye Wanqing and Zhao Jinyu for a moment, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes before he turned and caught up with his family.
After watching the Lin family members walk away, Ye Wanqing turned to Zhao Jinyu and said, "Young Master Zhao, it's time for us to leave too."
She walked towards the door with light steps. Zhao Jinyu took the handbag from her hand like a gentleman and said with a smile, "Miss Ye, please let me take it."
Ye Wanqing nodded slightly, a hint of gratitude flashing in her eyes: "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhao."
"It is my honor to serve Miss Ye." Zhao Jinyu smiled and opened the car door for the two of them.
The silver umbrella in his hand slowly opened in the rain, creating a rainless sky for the two of them.
Sitting in the car, Lin Shuhuai looked out the window and saw Zhao Jinyu and Ye Wanqing walking side by side in the rain. An inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in his heart: "Isn't that the couple you mentioned before?"
Hearing this, Lin Yanrong also looked out the window. Seeing that familiar figure, her unhappiness surged like a tide, and she snorted coldly, "What's so good about it!"
"What did you say just now?" Lin Shuhuai's voice was as cold as frost, which made Lin Yanrong's heart tremble.
She hurriedly said, "It's nothing, Mom, you saw it wrong."
Mr. Lin, who was sitting in the front seat, heard the conversation clearly. Through the windshield, he saw the two people under the silver umbrella approaching the car.
Soon, he saw Ye Wanqing get into the car gracefully, while Zhao Jinyu put away his umbrella, walked around to the other side and got in the car.
After Lin Shuhuai finished teaching Lin Yanrong a lesson, he realized that the car hadn't started yet. He turned to look at Lin Xuan and asked, "Xuan, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, Mom." Lin Xuan responded and started the car.
Ye Wanqing drove the car, weaving through the rain with ease. Zhao Jinyu watched her expertly avoid the puddles and said, "Ms. Ye's driving skills are truly admirable."
Ye Wanqing turned around, a bright smile on her face: "Thank you for the compliment, I have been driving for some years."
She obtained her driver's license as early as adulthood, but she only started driving frequently in recent years.
"I can indeed see it." Zhao Jinyu responded with a smile.
The red light came on, and Ye Wanqing withdrew her gaze, continuing to drive intently. Zhao Jinyu, on the other hand, looked down at his phone, replying to work messages.
About half an hour later, the car stopped steadily downstairs of Zhao Jinyu's apartment.
Ye Wanqing turned to look at him: "Mr. Zhao, you're home. I won't bother you anymore. Today's meal is delicious. Thank you for your hospitality."
Zhao Jinyu unbuckled her seatbelt and said with a smile, "The new drama is about to air. I'd like to invite you to the premiere. Would Miss Ye honor you?"
The new drama is about to be released, and in order to promote it, the team carefully planned a premiere. As the screenwriter, Ye Wanqing was naturally among the invited guests.
However, she never liked to show up in public, so she shook her head slightly: "Probably not. I plan to start preparing a new script."
"It's a pity." Zhao Jinyu sighed softly and said nothing more. He pushed open the car door and said, "Then I'll go up first. Miss Ye, be careful on the road."
"Okay." Ye Wanqing responded and watched Zhao Jinyu walk into the apartment building before driving away.
On the way home, Ye Wanqing suddenly decided to stop by a nearby grocery store and pick up some fresh ingredients. She felt an urge to try making desserts, especially the French macarons she had always wanted to try.
Driving into the familiar alley, Ye Wanqing's eyes inadvertently swept across a BMW parked on the side of the road. Her heart moved slightly, but she did not stop. Instead, she drove around it skillfully.
When she pushed open the iron gate of the villa and was about to drive into the garage, a familiar figure came into view - Lin Xuan was walking out of a black Mercedes-Benz and walking towards her.
Seeing this, Ye Wanqing gently lowered the car window, letting the cold wind and snowflakes brush against her cheeks. She tightened her cashmere coat to try to resist the sudden cold.
Lin Xuan stood outside the car, looking at her gently but firmly: "Wanqing, can we talk?"
Ye Wanqing bit her lip lightly, a complex emotion welling up in her heart. She wasn't sure if she wanted to have a deep conversation with Lin Xuan, but looking at the falling snow and the biting cold wind outside, she finally nodded: "Then come in."
She rolled up the car window and slowly drove into the garage. Lin Xuan stood quietly in the snow, letting the snowflakes fall on his black coat, as if he had become one with this world covered in silver.
Ye Wanqing took the key from the car, opened the side door, and walked towards the main door. Lin Xuan followed her silently, keeping a proper distance.
"You go in first, I'll get some things." Ye Wanqing pointed to the shopping bag in her hand, which was filled with ingredients she had carefully selected.
Lin Xuan didn't answer, but quietly followed her to the garage. Seeing her take a heavy shopping bag from the passenger seat, he took the initiative to step forward and said, "Let me help you get it."
Ye Wanqing didn't refuse and handed him the bag. They walked into the villa together, passed through the spacious hall, and came to the warm kitchen.
Ye Wanqing placed the shopping bag on the kitchen counter, then took out two exquisite porcelain cups and poured them into two cups of steaming ginger tea. She also took out a soft towel from the cupboard and handed it to Lin Xuan: "Wipe yourself."
Lin Xuan took the towel and gently wiped the snowflakes off his body. Ye Wanqing placed another cup of ginger tea on the coffee table in front of him and sat down on the sofa opposite him.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip, trying to use the warm tea to dispel the chill on her body. Then, she looked up at Lin Xuan: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
However, as soon as she said this, Ye Wanqing suddenly felt uneasy. She frowned, as if thinking about something.
"Are you busy now? I have something to take care of." She suddenly spoke with a hint of apology in her tone.
Lin Xuan looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness and understanding: "I'm not busy, go and do your thing first."
Ye Wanqing nodded, put down her teacup, stood up and went upstairs. Lin Xuan sat quietly on the sofa, watching her back, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
After a while, Ye Wanqing came down from upstairs, looking a little better than before. She sat down on the sofa again, picked up the teacup, and looked at Lin Xuan again: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Lin Xuan didn't actually have a clear topic in mind; he just wanted to spend more time with her. Facing her repeated question, he remained silent for a moment before finally deciding to speak: "I know why you signed Jiang Yubo before."
