Extra 30

Qin Anning took a plane today, went shopping with Qin Man, and then spent the whole afternoon at the company. She's exhausted.

Qin Man took a nap in the afternoon and was full of energy now, chattering away for a long time. Qin Anning lay down on the sofa and dozed off.

Qin Man heard no movement beside her, turned her head and realized that she had fallen asleep at some point.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Man turned off the TV and the lights, and curled up on the sofa to sleep as well.

She couldn't sleep, so she took out her phone and saw that someone had added her as a friend. She accepted the request.

Less than five minutes later, Yang Jingyu sent a long string of messages, all of which were his self-introductions, and he was very excited in his words.

Qin Man then started chatting with him out of boredom.

They chatted until after 1 a.m., when Qin Man got sleepy, and the two finally ended their conversation.

Yang Jingyu knew her name was Qin Man, and naturally he also knew her identity, since he had heard Qin Anning mention her before.

He had also seen Qin Man's photos, and she was quite pretty. He thought that if he could have Qin Man as his girlfriend, his father would be very happy.

The next morning, Yang Jingyu couldn't stay at home any longer. He got up, packed his things, and went to say goodbye to his family.

Yang Han was having breakfast when he and Xiao Lin looked at Yang Jingyu carrying a suitcase, both of them looking bewildered.

"Why are you carrying a suitcase when you're eating?" Xiao Lin asked, puzzled.

Yang Jingyu pulled out a chair and sat down, then solemnly said, "Mom and Dad, I'm about to head to the airport."

"Why are you in such a hurry? What's waiting for you over there?" Yang Han said irritably.

Xiao Lin also said, "Yes, didn't we agree to stay for two more days? Why did you leave so suddenly?"

Yang Jingyu grinned, "An Ning introduced me to a girlfriend, I'm going to meet her."

Both of them were shocked upon hearing this.

"Girlfriend?" Yang Han thought he had misheard.

Yang Jingyu showed his chat history, "Look, we added each other last night and had a very pleasant chat."

Xiao Lin was somewhat delighted, "Who is it? Do we know each other?"

Yang Jingyu pondered for a moment, unsure, "I don't know. She's Anning's cousin, her name is Qin Man. Have you met her?"

“I’ve seen her before. So it’s that girl.” Yang Han stroked his chin. He had naturally seen her before, as he used to visit the capital frequently.

He looked up at Yang Jingyu, his eyes filled with suspicion. "She would be interested in you?"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Lin slapped him and said unhappily, "How can you talk like that? He's your son. Don't you have any confidence in your own son?"

Yang Han sighed, "It's precisely because he's my son that I lack confidence. That girl has high standards, and I don't believe he can handle her."

Yang Jingyu was unhappy with these words. He slammed down his chopsticks and said, "What if I manage to handle this?"

Yang Han scoffed, "If you can handle this, I'll call you dad."

Xiao Lin rubbed her temples helplessly. For a moment, she really wanted a divorce.

Yang Jingyu suddenly stood up and said with high spirits, "If I can't make her my girlfriend, I won't be your son anymore!"

"Okay, I'll wait."

Yang Jingyu snorted, grabbed a sandwich from the table, picked up his suitcase, and went out the door.

Meanwhile, Qin Anning had also woken up.

Having slept on the sofa all night, she was sore all over. She rubbed her shoulders and got up, and immediately saw Qin Man in another corner.

She shook her head helplessly, picked up the blanket from the ground and threw it on Qin Man, then got up and did a quick wash.

Qin Man was still asleep when she left.

She took a taxi to the company and went to Fu Yin's office first, where she found him unpacking a package.

Fu Yin took out a watch and two pairs of leather shoes from the package.

He stared at the things in his hand, seemingly wondering if he had bought them. After confirming that he hadn't, he picked up the delivery slip and checked the sender's address.

Seeing the address on it, he looked up towards the door and asked, "Anning, did you buy this?"

Qin Anning walked in and said with a smile, "Yes, why is it only arriving now? Oh, I remember now, the courier service seems to have stopped."

She explained, "Everyone needs to wear new clothes for the New Year, so when I went to buy some, I bought some for you too. There's one more outfit that hasn't arrived yet; it should arrive in a few days."

Qin Anning took his hand, removed the watch from his wrist, and put on the one she had bought for him. "Try it on."

Fu Yin forced a smile and let Qin Anning put the watch on his wrist.

"It's beautiful," Qin Anning exclaimed. "No wonder I chose it myself. Do you like it?"

Fu Yin nodded slightly. "I like it."

Qin Anning's smile widened as she put the old watch back into the box. "I'm glad you like it."

Fu Yin smiled as well.

"Then I'll go to work now."

"Go."

At noon, Qin Anning received a call from Yang Jingyu, who had already gotten off the plane.

Qin Anning could finally breathe a sigh of relief. She said to Yang Jingyu, "Qin Man lives next door to you. You'll have to take good care of her from now on."

"Don't worry, your sister is my sister..." Yang Jingyu said, then realized something was off and quickly corrected himself, "Your sister is my sister, I will definitely take good care of her for you."

"I've been waiting for you to say that. I'll allow you to come to work tomorrow. You can go shopping with her today."

"I wasn't planning on coming to work today anyway. Never mind, I'll go back and talk to you later."

Yang Jingyu hung up the phone, took a taxi outside the airport, and headed straight for the apartment.

He also informed Qin Man of his arrival, and Qin Man had already opened the door, waiting for him to come over.

Qin Man was scrolling through her phone, looking at the food delivery options, when she suddenly heard a knock at the door. She looked up abruptly.

Upon spotting the boy peeking in through the doorway, her expression brightened, and she leaned forward to greet him.

"Are you Yang Jingyu?"

Yang Jingyu nodded hurriedly, tossed his suitcase at the door, and stepped inside. "You're Qin Man, right? Haven't we met before?"

He did see it when he was a child, but it's been so long that he doesn't remember it very clearly.

Qin Man nodded, "Of course I've seen it before. My dad used to take me to Chongqing a lot when I was little."

She looked Yang Jingyu up and down. He was wearing a white hoodie and carrying a backpack. He was quite handsome.

Yang Jingyu was also looking her over, and felt that she was prettier than in the photos. After a couple of glances, he started to feel embarrassed.

He stood in the room, feeling somewhat lost. Apart from Qin Anning, he really didn't know how to get along with other girls.

His awkwardness amused Qin Man. "Why are you so shy? Have you never been in a relationship before?"

Yang Jingyu was taken aback and looked at her in surprise. "Have you been in a relationship?"
