Chapter 68

The fingers on the steering wheel moved, Xu Yanwen reached out and loosened the tie under his neck and slowly tilted towards Xue Jiayue. His handsome face was slowly getting closer.

Xue Jiayue dreamed that she was in a meadow with flowers in full bloom and the breeze was blowing.

There were birds singing and flowers smelling everywhere, it was as beautiful as a fairyland. She played happily on the grassland and picked many beautiful flowers.

Suddenly, a huge black shadow appeared in front of her, she looked up, it was a serious face of Xu Yanwen, she was shocked, and wanted to run back.

Who knows that Xu Yanwen moves faster than her. He takes one step forward and grabs her arm, she struggles hard but couldn’t win over his strength, and instead Xu Yanwen directly presses her down in the flower field.

She was lying on the grass, Xu Yanwen pressed on top of her she looked at the handsome face that was getting closer. She panic and her heart snapped making her woke up abruptly.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Xue Jiayue had a magnified handsome face in front of her, which was Xu Yanwen’s face, it was very, very close to her just like the situation inside the dream, she was shocked and instinctively backed away.

Unfortunately, her action was too big. Her head suddenly hit the rear window and made a bang. The pain made her eyes full of gold stars and tears rolled down from her eyes.

“Does it hurt?”

Xu Yanwen felt pain when she was hit like this. He stretched out his hand to touch her head and said with pity and helplessness.

“Why are you so careless?”

Xue Jiayue was so hurt that tears flowed out. She clearly slept well. Who knew he would suddenly come over making her suddenly woke up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw his enlarged handsome face in front of her and of course she would be scared. And what would be her first reaction? Of course, her first idea was to hide away.

As soon as she stepped back, she hit the window. She was completely unprepared and was hit hard. Why doesn’t it hurt? Of course, it hurts!

“Why did you suddenly come so close? It scared me.”

Xue Jiayue could not easily hold back her tears and looked at Xu Yanwen with aggression and accusation of his behavior in her eyes.

Xu Yanwen also did not expect her reaction would be so big, obviously just now she was still sleeping so well and there were no signs of her waking up, so when he came over, he did not expect her to suddenly wake up, not knowing what she dreamed in her dream?

“I just saw a fly on your nose, and I wanted to help you get rid of the fly.”

Xu Yanwen told a lie without changing his expression.

If Xue Jiayue knew the truth, she might have to point her finger at his nose and scold him for being the nasty fly.

“Really?”

Xue Jiayue looked at him suspiciously, doubting what he said. She always feeling that what he said was not quite believable.

Xu Yanwen, however, replied calmly.

“Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”

Then he swept her a glance again and quickly changed the subject.

“We’re home, why don’t you get off?”

Xue Jiayue was still looking at him, trying to see what was wrong with his good-looking face.

However, Xu Yanwen didn’t give her a chance to continue watching. He quickly turned his head, reached out his hand to pull out the car key, opened the door with his left hand, step out his long legs out the car and was ready to get off.

“If you are tired, go home and sleep. Sleeping in the car is not comfortable than on bed.”

Xu Yanwen also pretended to be calm and told Xue Jiayue where to sleep.

Xue Jiayue pursed her mouth and said that she seemed to like sleeping in the car. Of course, she also knew that it was comfortable for her sleep on bed. It wasn’t just because she had just took medicine or because she was sick, but because as soon as she gets in the car she likes to have power nap.

When she got home, Xue Jiayue went straight to her room with her bag. She still felt a little tired, her cold was still fresh and she was dizzy so she wanted to lie down in bed.

After a while, Xu Yanwen came and knocked on the door, she didn’t get up to open it but only said to Xu Yanwen outside the door.

“I’m sleeping.”

Xu Yanwen’s light laughter came from outside the door. His low and pleasant voice came from outside the door.

“I’m not going back in the company this afternoon, I’ll be in the study next door. Call me if you have something.”

Xue Jiayue propped herself up and sat up from the bed, raising her voice a little and said.

“I’m fine, you go about your business.”

Xu Yanwen lowered his eyes and stared at the closed door, thinking to himself that she still didn’t appreciate it! Still the same when she was a child!

Xue Jiayue waited for a while and didn’t hear another sound coming from the door, so she assumed Xu Yanwen had left and continued to fall back into bed to sleep.

She thought she would not be able to sleep, who knew after lying on bed in dazed she actually fell asleep again until the door knocked again, Xue Jiayue only woke up.

“Who is it?”

Xue Jiayue rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up from the bed, asking at the door.

Elder Xu’s voice came from the door.

“It’s me, Grandpa.”

Xue Jiayue was startled, her head suddenly activated right away and quickly lifted the quilt out of the bed, slipped on slippers and walked to the dressing table to comb and smooth out her hair. She also checked the face in the mirror, making sure she looked okay before turning around and walking to the door to open it.

“Grandpa, why are you here?”

Xue Jiayue opened the door of the room and saw Elder Xu standing at the door with his cane. She quickly reached out and held his arm.

Elder Xu looked at her a little pale face but since she looked energetic, he was relieved and said.

“I just heard that you have a cold so I came to see you. You haven’t returned to the old house for many days, and don’t know to call.”

Xue Jiayue stiffened and glanced at Xu Yanwen next to her, who returned her a helpless look and also spread his hands.

Meaning was he wasn’t the one who told grandpa about her cold, grandpa asked someone and specifically had his driver drive over to see her.

“Grandpa, I just have a small cold and I have already taken some medicine. I just need to rest for two days and I’ll be fine!”

Xue Jiayue smilingly coaxed Old Master Xu.

Elder Xu reached out to lovingly touch her head and said with concern.

“Why do I feel that you have lost weight, is it that Yanwen is not taking good care of you? If it weren’t for having Sister Zhen coming over every day, I wouldn’t feel comfortable without someone to take care of you.”

When it comes to sister Zhen, Xue Jiayue’s heart tensed up. The last time, she and Xu Yanwen have suffered enough.

She was afraid that if sister Zhen would come to take care of her and Xu Yanwen’s life and stew a pot of seasoned chicken soup again, they would be really miserable.

Xue Jiayue hurriedly said with a smile on her face.

“Grandpa, I’m not thin. I’m actually fat, yesterday I weighed and gained a full two pounds of fat, and if it continues like this, it should grow into a big fat. I think my life is quite good recently, going to work and leaving work like a regular person. Don’t not need to bother sister Zhen to come and help. I am already so big so I should learn by myself after all I can’t have someone take care of me for a lifetime.”

Elder Xu still disagreed so Xue Jiayue quickly acts coquettishly and coaxed him saying good things. All kinds of assurance and good words were sold at once.

Finally, Elder Xu agreed and did not force to let sister Zhen come. However, Elder Xu made another request, that was, at the end of each week Xue Jiayue and Xu Yanwen must go back to the old house and stay in the old house for one night and stay with him, the old man, and make arrangements if there were special circumstances.

Xue Jiayue has a headache at the thought of living in the old house. If she lives there, she must share a room with Xu Yanwen. Even if she only stays for one night, it was really inconvenient.

She just did not want Sister Zhen to come over to take care of the two of them, she had already used all the methods she could think of, which made Master Xu change his mind, and now she was at her wit’s end, she just tried so hard.

So, now it’s time for Xu Yanwen to come up. With this thinking she took her eyes to Xu Yanwen and looked over, desperately blinking at him and pulling her mouth so that he would hurry up and think of a way.

Xu Yanwen saw her winking and pulling the corners of her mouth, he could not help but remember that day in front of the Hotel when he ran into Mr. He, who took his studio people to dinner.

Since Xue Jiayue was also present, he was afraid he would be exposed so also desperately winked at Mr. He pulling the corners of his mouth, but Mr. He was too stupid and did not understand his meaning, so instead he looked like a clown.

Now when he sees that Xue Jiayue was also acting like him, he couldn’t help but want to laugh thinking of himself at that time. He probably looked so ridiculous.

Of course, Xu Yanwen knows what Xue Jiayue means. He’s not as stupid as Mr. He, but he’s a little embarrassed. Grandpa now proposes to let them go back to their old house just for one day a week. In fact, one day was not very difficult.

He didn’t ask them to go back every day, which was also grandpa’s minimum requirement. If they put forward conditions again, they might make grandpa unhappy. And it would not impossible for them to go back every day.

He thinks that it took so much effort to move in back the old house. Now if Grandpa was unhappy and asks them to move back completely, his early efforts would be in vain.

After much consideration, Xu Yanwen decided to listen to Elder Xu’s arrangement. He asked them to go back to live for a day, and they would go back to live for a day. As for how to arrange it at that time, what should he and Xue Jiayue do, they could just think of a way. In short, escape was not exactly an escape, and it’s not like they have another way around it. Grandpa would always have a way to let them give in.

“Grandpa, we’ll listen to your arrangement and go back to stay one day a week starting from this weekend.”

Xu Yanwen said very obediently.

When Elder Xu heard his promise to return to the old house for the weekend, he was so happy that his face was folded with a smile.

“Good, good, then it’s settled.”

However, Xue Jiayue was shocked by Xu Yanwen’s choice. She suddenly looked up at Xu Yanwen opposite to her.

Her eyes were wider than copper bells. She really couldn’t understand why Xu Yanwen agreed? She doesn’t understand what he was thinking? This was making her angry. She obviously winked at him, asked him to cooperate with her and refused Elder Xu’s request!

Xu Yanwen wanted to laugh at the shocked look she had all over her face, of course he knew she wanted him to refuse, but he chose to say yes, knowing she would have such expression.

“I’m going to get some water to drink.”

Xu Yanwen stood up, picked up a cup and went to the kitchen to get water.

Seeing this, Xue Jiayue also hurriedly stood up.

“I am also thirsty, I also want to drink water.”

She said after and followed Xu Yanwen to the kitchen.

Seeing the backs of two people going into the kitchen one after the other, Elder Xu smiled laconically. The two people’s feelings seem to have really changed for the better!

Xue Jiayue followed Xu Yanwen into the kitchen, peeked into the living room and saw that Elder Xu hadn’t noticed them, so she lowered her voice and asked quietly.

“Why did you say yes? Didn’t I give you a wink and tell you not to say yes?”

Xu Yanwen’s handsome face instantly showed an expression of surprise, looking at Xue Jiayue in surprise his was face not red nor was his heart jumping.

“I thought you were making eyes to make me agree, wasn’t it?”

“No, of course not!”

Xue Jiayue was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet. She didn’t expect that Xu Yanwen, who always looked smart would also made such a low-level mistake.

She wanted to scold Xu Yanwen for being a fool, but because Elder Xu was still sitting in the living room, she didn’t dare to speak loudly. She could only press her voice and say.

“You’re so stupid. I didn’t mean that at all.”

Xu Yanwen helplessly shrugged his shoulders.

“Then I can’t help it, I have agreed who told you not to say earlier.”

“I’ve reminded you of that.”

Xue Jiayue raised her volume a little.

“You winked and pulled the corners of your mouth but you didn’t say anything, so how would I know.”

Xu Yanwen pretended to look at her innocently.

Xue Jiayue was furious.

“You are really …… um ……”

Xu Yanwen covered her mouth, didn’t let her finish her words and showed a smile to the person behind Xue Jiayue and called out very nicely.

“Grandpa.”

Looking at the two of them strangely, Elder Xu asked suspiciously.

“What are you doing here?”

Xu Yanwen held Xue Jiayue’s mouth in his hand to avoid her saying what she shouldn’t say. Pretending to be serious, he said.

“Jiayue and I are discussing cooking dinner. She said it’s rare for you to come here so she’ll cook dinner later but I said she hasn’t recovered from her cold so she’d better not work so hard and just go out to eat buy she blamed me for being unreasonable. The food outside is not as good as that at home.”

Hearing Xu Yanwen’s serious nonsense, Mr. Xu didn’t think there was a problem with what he said.

Maybe he knew there was something strange between the two people, but he didn’t want to expose them, so he smiled and said.

“Then listen to what Jiayue said. Eat at home. Jiayue has a cold. It’s hard to cook. Just do it. I’ll wait to taste your food.”

“Okay, grandpa.”

Xu Yanwen hurriedly agreed.

Master Xu gave a “hmm” and turned to leave.
