Chapter 33
Chapter 33
Fortunately, Que Qingyan didn’t use the words to go to the bedroom to tease Lin Mian, nor did he read the love letter in the pile of pink envelopes. He just picked up a book to read.
The book is the legal provisions of the Anglo-American legal system, and it is the original untranslated text. Lin Mian stayed asleep for a few minutes.
Que Qingyan put down his book and got up, turned off the half-boiled coffee machine, closed the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, and leaned over the back of the sofa and glanced in a dim light.
Lin Mian didn’t have any small addictions when she slept, and she slept very well. The warm orange eye mask covers the upper half of her face, only revealing the part below the tip of the nose, and her lips are reddish and even more white.
Que Qingyan lowered his eyes and swept across her white face, recalling what it was like to blush.
These days, Lin Mian asked him for a goodnight kiss, came to him to take a nap, and asked for a portrait…When he really responded, she retracted after seeing it.
Que Qingyan originally thought that this was Lin Mian’s performance of sticking to him and intimacy with him. Now, after analyzing it, it may be a kind of troubles in an unstable state.
Like a hamster that only stores grain for the winter, he can’t help but repeatedly check whether there is any corn in the granary for the winter.
Lin Mian is still uncomfortable with him chasing her. Or it can be said that she subconsciously doesn’t believe that he is chasing her, she always feels that she is still the one who takes the initiative more, so she often confirms it again and waits for his initiative before adapting again.
The phone on the desk buzzed and vibrated, Que Qingyan walked back to the table, picked up the phone and went into the master bedroom, and answered the phone.
“I only found out when I was having afternoon tea with someone today. I heard people say that you were chasing someone?” Que Min was surprised and asked, “Is it Mianmian? Didn’t you say that you are already together?”
“Yeah.” Que Min knew that Que Qingyan didn’t like others to inquire about his personal affairs, especially the emotional aspect, but he didn’t expect that this time he not only responded, but also calmly added, “I haven’t caught it yet.”
“Mian Bao, since Que made clear that he wants to chase you, then you let him chase.” Bai Jiayi served as a military adviser to Lin Mian, “We have a good chance, and finally have the opportunity to let him chase you. Don’t respond. Too proactive.”
When Bai Jiayi said this, he was thinking about the gossip he heard in the past few days.
In the celebrity circle, I don’t know who came out. It is said that Xiaoxiao means chasing people casually. In fact, they can be chased early, but the other party is too pretending and playing very well, so it hasn’t been chased until now.
There is also a rumor that Que Shao doesn’t care about chasing people. It will be hot for a few days at most and it won’t last for a long time.
Miss Bai, who had a bad temper, suffocated her breath, immediately called and continued: “You like Que Qingyan for so long, and now it’s hard to change him to chase you. Of course, the sooner you agree, the better.”
Bai Jia replied, if Que Qingyan was really enthusiastic about Mianbao for a few days, and he would not chase after halfway, then he would be psychologically prepared to agree that night. If Que Qingyan is serious about pursuing…Mianbao liked him for so many years, but what happened to him a few days later?
Lin Mian was planning to go out for dinner when he received the call. Que Qingyan asked her if she would be free this weekend and have dinner together tonight.
Lin Mian turned off the computer, listened to the phone and walked out of the workplace, thinking for a long time, “What if I drag him on purpose and he really doesn’t chase him?” After a pause, she added in a low voice, “I Know how it feels to not respond when chasing people…”
Lin Mian didn’t want to be uncomfortable on her own, but also wanted to let the other party experience this uncomfortable again.
Bai Jiayi’s heart suddenly softened.
The Lin family was defeated, but Lin Mian was held in the palm of her hand by Lin Mian since she was a child. Although she did not develop a coquettish character that could not afford hardship, she had at least not suffered any major setbacks. It’s the first time to chase people like before, regardless of their discomfort and results.
Now that the longing for many years has finally been answered, how can it be possible that it is too late for ecstasy?
Bai Jiayi said distressedly: “Mianbao, please agree to him now.”
“I thought about it too,” she was anxious to agree to Que Qingqing in the first place. Lin Mian’s voice was even lower this time, with a little sincere melancholy, “Ke Que said clearly, let me not agree to him so quickly.”
Miss Bai, who was shown a face of affection for no reason, said: “…”
Bai Jia reluctantly knew that this was a flirting game between two people, so she would not make this phone call to find sin.
On the other side, Que Min was shopping with a few wives and found a private teahouse for afternoon tea.
While the waiter was serving desserts, someone asked casually: “I heard, Qingyan is chasing people recently?”
“Is there?” the person on the side said, “I should have caught up early.”
Some people who have watched the news know that the other party is Lin Mian, and some don’t, but they have the same attitude when gossiping in private. So when I mentioned it to Que Min in person this time, I also wanted to prove the meaning of gossip.
“I haven’t caught it yet,” Que Min put down his teacup, with a big smile, “How can it be so easy? The little girl hasn’t promised yet, it’s still far from catching up.”
“He really likes it.” Before that, Que Min had spoken to Que Qingyan early, and sighed and said, “I told me yesterday that I reserved a seat in the revolving restaurant tonight and wanted to invite the little girl. I don’t know if people agree or not.”
A few words or two, to make Que Qingyan the obsessive seeker’s side, or to chase after the unsatisfactory situation of love.
Few people didn’t expect this to be the case. After hearing this, some people reluctantly smiled and said, “That’s it.”
Gossip broke out that night, saying that the young master of the Que family had completely planted in for a little girl. He also booked a seat at the observation deck of the revolving restaurant in the city center.
Que’s family is famous, and Que is young and promising, and there are really people who look down on both. Someone sighed: “It’s so cruel.”
At the same time, the cruel client finished the phone call with Bai Jiayi, and when he went downstairs, Que Qingyan was already waiting downstairs in the apartment.
Lin Mian thought it over with his heartbeat, and said his heart that this was the first time he had invited her to dinner alone in the true sense.
Because of the significance, Lin Mian deliberately watched it for a while, planning to draw up drafts after returning to the apartment after dinner, and find some time to bind these scattered drafts into a book and keep it as a souvenir.
Lin Mian waited to look at it a few more times before realizing that Que Qingyan was wearing a formal dress today.
His suit and leather shoes are tailored to make his figure taller and longer. He also… wears a tie. Que Qingyan opened the passenger’s door for Lin Mian. Seeing her in a daze, he looked down and asked, “What’s the matter?”
The car in front of me is not the one that Que Qingyan drove before. The paint is very new, as if it had just been picked up. Lin Mian sat in and raised his eyes to find a topic: “Have you changed cars?”
Que Qingyan supported the back of the chair behind Lin Mian, leaned down to help her fasten her seat belt, responded, and asked casually, “Do you like it?”
“…” A short distance away, Lin Mian had forgotten what he asked just now, and it took a long time to try to hide his eyes from his face, “I like it.”
As for whether you like cars or people…
The first time the two had a formal meal, Lin Mian read silently three times before leaving the house to calm down, secretly thinking that he must behave more naturally. After all, she has rich experience in love field theory, and her emotions cannot always be carried away by Que Qingyan. She cannot blush or squat, otherwise it will look like…
But the next moment, Que Qingyan didn’t quit after helping her fasten her seat belt. Instead, she swept through her twinkling eyes and asked indifferently:
“Why don’t you like to look at me?” After a pause, he suppressed his smile and explained in a low voice, “I am just wearing a seat belt.” After a pause, he said, “Now I am your suitor, without you With permission, I will not do anything disrespectful to you.”
Lin Mian was still digesting the last sentence, Que Qingyan added: “I am to you—”
Guangfeng Jiyue’s Que Qingyan pondered for a moment, and used the words “intentionally unruly”, and continued with a smile: “But I can restrain it now, so don’t worry too much.”
With his words, Lin Mian uncontrollably thought of the scene where Que Qingyan buckled his seat belt and kissed him, and played the words “intentionally unruly” in his mind several times…
Soon, Lin Mian blushed and couldn’t say a word, but he just responded.
Taking advantage of Que Qingyan’s opening of the main driver’s door, Lin Mian knocked his head on the window glass, and said with shame that she could not restrain herself!
The revolving restaurant is located on the top floor of the hotel in the city center. The location with the best view can only accept one reservation per night. The restaurant is surrounded by transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, and you can see the busy night scene below, and the lights and shadows of the International Trade Building are half-hidden in the night.
The waiter brought the wine list. Just as Lin Mian wanted to decline, he listened to Que’s clear words: “If you want to drink, you can drink a little wine, don’t worry about me.”
He didn’t speak too clearly, but Lin Mian heard the subtext.
Even if she was drunk, Que Qingyan would not do anything deviant to her.
“No,” Lin Mian’s ears gradually heated up, and he confessed with difficulty, and said in a low voice, “My wine is not good… I’m afraid I will do something to you when I get drunk.”
Que Qingyan calmly said “Uh”, raised his eyes to look at her, and asked calmly, “What do you do?”
The waiter with the wine list chose to pretend to be deaf.
“do…”
Teacher Mu Mian has cycled through countless small theaters that girls can’t talk about, and said to her, what else can we do…
In front of others, Lin Mian didn’t want to blush to show the waiter. Before his face burned, he pretended to be calm and quickly ordered a bottle of red wine.
The lights in the restaurant are very dim, so that guests can see the night view out of the window. When Lin Mian finds something is wrong, there are very few people around.
Soon, the guests at the last table left, and no new guests came in to dine in the restaurant.
“Mr. Que has booked all the seats tonight,” the waiter brought the wine, bowed and handed a gift box, smiled, “This is a small gift from our restaurant, I wish you a happy meal.”
Que Qingyan booked all the seats.
He officially booked the restaurant, dressed in formal attire, and invited her over for a meal.
Lin Mian’s heart beats like a drum, and she thinks very hopelessly, it turns out that being chased… is this feeling.
“Que Qingyan,” after thinking for a moment, Lin Mian gently put down his fork, raised his eyes and asked in a low voice, “When can you promise me?”
Listening to the tone, he also brought some grievances.
“…” Que Qingyan burst into laughter, “I was chasing you, how come I promised you?”
“I want to accept it now, okay?” Lin Mian didn’t want to talk about the hard work of chasing people, for fear that he thought she was ruining her old accounts, so he just thought about it, “In the end anyway…” She will definitely accept him.
Halfway through the conversation, Que Qingyan’s cell phone vibrated for a moment, indicating that he had received a text message.
Que Qingyan didn’t look at the phone, but Lin Mian stopped talking and stopped talking.
She had already used a lot of courage when she said that just now.
Lin Mian’s self-esteem and upbringing have been telling her that some words are inappropriate for a girl, but she just can’t hold on to Que Qingyan.
Bai Jiayi also said that the mental age difference between Lin Mian and Que Qingyan is huge. In terms of feelings, Lin Mian is much simpler and straightforward. The other party is pursuing her now, and she also likes him, being together is a matter of course.
Lin Mian blushed and thought for a while, if we were really together… we could do a lot of things.
The conversation was interrupted, and Lin Mian didn’t mention it anymore during the next meal time.
…
After dinner, Que Qingyan drove Lin Mian back to the apartment.
The elevator stopped on the eighth floor. The latter walked towards the door step by step, halfway open, and suddenly thought that he hadn’t said good night yet.
As soon as Lin Mian turned her head, she found Que Qingyan got out of the elevator and was walking straight to her.
His expression was indifferent, his eyes were deep, he rarely frowned, and cast his eyes down to meet her.
“…” Lin Mian looked at his Yingjun’s facial features, feeling a little nervous inexplicably, “You…”
“I never felt that you promised my pursuit for granted.” Que Qingyan held the doorknob behind Lin Mian, pressing down to look at her. His voice was calm, paused for a moment, and said, “I don’t want others to think that I am just going after you for a cutscene, which is an emotional charity.”
Lin Mian was stunned.
“I’m pursuing you very formally. You have the right to refuse me.” She had a drink tonight, her eyes were red, and she was slow to hear someone talk. Que Qingyan slowed down and smiled, “Of course, from a selfish point of view, I hope you can accept me in the future.”
After speaking, Que Qingyan didn’t wait for Lin Mian’s response. In fact, he still had something to say, but she was like this. He stayed for a while, and he couldn’t restrain himself even if he controlled himself.
He opened the door for Lin Mian, stepped back and let her in: “Go to bed early.”
The next moment, the sleeve of the shirt was caught.
Lin Mian pursed his lips and said, “You… wait a minute.”
A few minutes later, Lin Mian opened the door again from the room, took a piece of paper in his hand and handed it to Que Qingyan.
This was drawn by Lin Mian when he went to hear his trial last time. He was drawn on paper.
Que Qingyan took a look, and there was a whole column of small characters written beside him, full of the three words “can’t sleep”.
“…” No wonder he didn’t see her fall asleep during the trial. Que Qingyan laughed, “What is this?”
“This is an IOU.” Lin Mian looked serious and whispered back, “When I chased you, you encouraged me…” She blushed a little bit after thinking of something, “But now I have no other gifts for you. , I will make an IOU to you first, and then make it up later.”
Que Qingyan looked at it carefully for a while, put it away, and asked calmly, “Do you want to return the gift?”
In return…
Lin Mian drank some wine, and now his mind was full of fascinating thoughts. When he heard that he wanted to return the gift, he couldn’t help thinking of something else.
A goodnight kiss, a hug, even if you kiss your forehead, it’s…
Before Lin Mian finished thinking, his hand was held, and the small, cold, square object was placed in the palm of his hand.
It’s a car key.
The new car he drove today…
Que Qingyan looked down at Lin Mian, her slender fingertips accidentally stroked the soft skin of her palm, paused for a moment, and then let go.
Lin Mian heard him speak: “Send luxury car keys, revolve the restaurant for private space, camp in the suburbs and set off fireworks…”
This is what she said when she chased him.
Que Qingyan confounded a smile: “All these let me come.”
“You don’t need to…” After a long time of digestion, Lin Mian’s dull brain finally slowed down. The soreness in her heart was mixed with other emotions, and the words she wanted to say were swallowed back, and changed to, “I’m going out for signing in two days, can you…”
Lin Mian’s heart was beating fiercely, and he gently grasped Que Qingyan’s sleeve and didn’t let go.
In the past, she had to cautiously ask for his consent before doing this kind of thing, but today she suddenly didn’t want to ask.
What he wanted to do rolled in his mind, Lin Mian closed his eyes and loosened Que Qingyan’s cuffs.
He wore a tie today.
The next moment, Lin Mian lowered his heart, stretched out his hand to pull down the other party’s tie, and stood on tiptoe.
Take the initiative to kiss the corner of his lips.
