Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Why are you crying?

When Zhao Qingshi received Ruan Xiangyi's call, he was in Singapore accompanying Li Wenyin to try on wedding dresses. After returning from the call, Li Wenyin had changed into a new dress, which was a little lower-cut than the previous one.

"Brother Qingshi, what do you think of this set?" Li Wenyin asked shyly.

Zhao Qingshi glanced at it, didn't really look at it and said casually: "Just order it."

After saying that, he called over his assistant Li and told him to do something.

Li Wenyin curled her lips, thinking this man was really unromantic. She ordered everything, so what was he doing here? He'd been sitting here all morning working, and now he heard him ordering someone else to go back to Yuyao on a business trip. What a workaholic.

I turned to the staff and said, "I want my chest to be a little lower."

Thanks to Zhao Qingshi's intervention, Ruan Xiangyi successfully got the house for 300,000 yuan.

Lin Manshu didn't seem to expect it to sell so quickly, and hurried back to sign the contract. Ruan Xiangyi was not convenient to show up, so she had to ask Special Assistant Li to meet Lin Manshu.

"Thank you for the past two days." Ruan Xiangyi thanked Li, "My mother will be here soon. Please don't reveal my name."

"It's all my responsibility." Special Assistant Li smiled. According to the schedule, the boss had already landed in Yitong today, and he still had to catch a flight after finishing the work. "Don't worry about it."

Before meeting Lin Manshu, Special Assistant Li received a call from Zhao Qingshi.

Lin Manshu hurried over, anxious to sign the contract and go back, but Assistant Li told her to wait a little longer because the buyer of the house had not arrived yet.

After waiting for about half an hour, the owner of the house finally arrived. Lin Manshu stood up and was stunned when she saw the person.

"Hello, Aunt Lin." Zhao Qingshi took off his sunglasses and smiled at her gently.

Lin Manshu couldn't hold back her smile. She suspected that someone had set her up, but then she thought, it was legal and maybe just a coincidence.

"Mr. Zhao, why did you suddenly think of buying a house here?" Lin Manshu asked, "You may not know that this house is quite old. Do you want to reconsider it?"

"That's it." Zhao Qingshi sat down and said nothing more to her. "Sign the contract."

Lin Manshu signed the contract with a nervous heart, relieved herself, and completed all the formalities. She returned to Yitong early the next morning.

Assistant Li followed closely.

But Zhao Qingshi didn't leave. Ruan Xiangyi didn't dare to ask and took him for a walk along the river.

Yuyao Ancient Town is most famous for its night view at night. When lanterns are lit, the whole town looks like a city that never sleeps. It is very comfortable to have a drink on the riverside plank road, listen to the music in the bar, and feel the wind blowing through the willow trees at night.

Ruan Xiangyi introduced everything to him, but he didn't say a word. She couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

"Have you lived here since you were a child?" I finally heard him ask.

"Yes." Ruan Xiangyi nodded, "I lived here until I was fifteen." After her father passed away when she was fourteen, she only lived here until she was fifteen and then went to the Ruan family with Lin Manshu. She rarely came back after that.

Zhao Qingshi nodded, but nothing further was said.

Someone had just helped her, so she didn't want to leave the conversation unattended, so she took the initiative to ask, "I heard from Assistant Li that you just came back from Singapore. Is this work-related? Did I disturb you?"

"It's just a wedding dress try-on, nothing to bother you."

It was just trying on a wedding dress, and he spoke nonchalantly as if this wedding had nothing to do with him, and there was no joy of getting married on his face.

Ruan Xiangyi was about to speak when she suddenly felt nauseous. Zhao Qingshi noticed her abnormality and frowned: "What's wrong with you?"

Ruan Xiangyi patted his chest and suppressed the nausea for a long time before it subsided: "It's okay, just a little nauseous."

"Last time when we were playing mahjong and we heard about my wedding date, you said you won. Now when you heard I was going to try on wedding dresses, you're nauseous again." Zhao Qingshi leaned forward slightly and stared at her. "Do you have any opinion about me?"

"Absolutely not!" Ruan Xiangyi stood there frozen. "I don't wish you any harm."

"Besides," she began to vomit again, "I..."

The sun was blazing, and now was not the time to stand outside and talk. Zhao Qingshi took her arm, called a car, helped her in, and they both sat in the back seat: "I've booked a room, you go back to the hotel and rest for a while."

Smelling the odor in the car, Ruan Xiangyi reacted strongly and grabbed his sleeve: "Zhao Qingshi, I feel like vomiting, can you open the window?"

Zhao Qingshi did as he was told. He looked down and saw that her face was red. He reached out to check her temperature. It wasn't hot. "Did you have heatstroke?"

Ruan Xiangyi felt so uncomfortable that she didn't want to talk.

There is one bad thing about Yuyao, because it is a one-way street, there will be traffic jams during holidays.

The ride was so bumpy that Ruan Xiangyi couldn't help but vomit in the car. The driver saw her in the rearview mirror and yelled, "Hey, little girl, why are you vomiting in my car? What should I do? I've wasted a whole day!"

Zhao Qingshi glanced over and said: "We will compensate you, don't you see that you are uncomfortable?"

Having barely eaten, what she vomited was all stomach acid. Zhao Qingshi immediately asked his master for tissues to wipe the stains from the corners of her mouth. There was also a little on his shoes, but he didn't notice it. Ruan Xiangyi saw it, and her emotions exploded at this moment. She felt that there was nothing she could do.

So uncomfortable...

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." She burst into tears when she heard her master's scolding.

Zhao Qingshi hadn't expected the woman's emotions to flare up so quickly, catching him off guard. He lowered his eyes and saw her crying like a pear blossom in the rain. He seemed to sigh, and the next second he pulled her into his arms, "Why are you crying? It's not a big deal."

Ruan Xiangyi shook her head in his arms.

Zhao Qingshi awkwardly placed his hand on her head and gently soothed her, with a gentleness he had never shown before: "It's okay."

"Still feeling bad?"

Ruan Xiangyi wanted to shake her head, but the feeling of discomfort kept filling her mind.

He saw her stubbornness and said, "Master, please stop the car by the roadside."

The car stopped by the roadside and the two got out. Ruan Xiangyi squatted on the roadside uncomfortably.

The driver got out of the car and checked the back seat. In fact, there was no damage on the car, but most of it was on Zhao Qingshi's expensive leather shoes. She raised her head, looked at the back of the person turning into the store, and buried her sweaty face in her arms again.

The man returned quickly, holding three bottles of water. He casually handed one to the driver, asking him to wait. He unscrewed the bottle cap, knelt down, and handed it to her. He then placed another bottle of iced water from the refrigerator on her face to cool it down.

"Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"I want to go back to the hotel and get some sleep." After a while, Zhao Qingshi heard a mosquito-like sound in his arms. He stayed with her for a while, and when she recovered, they got back in the car.

As soon as she got in the car, Ruan Xiangyi leaned her head against the window and took a nap. After arriving at the destination, Zhao Qingshi found that she had fallen asleep.

After Zhao Qingshi paid the fare, he walked to the other side and carried her out of the car. The driver stared at Zhao Qingshi's receding figure, hesitated for a moment, and finally got out of the car to chase after her.

"etc."

The driver caught up with him and grabbed his hand: "Wait a moment, young man."

Zhao Qingshi stared at the hands holding him and had to stop: "Anything else?"

The driver hurriedly loosened his hand and wanted to return the extra money he had given: "I just checked, your girlfriend didn't get on my car, you gave too much." He gave a full five hundred yuan in cash.

"I'm sorry to have taken up quite a bit of your time, so just consider it as an additional expense." After saying that, he walked away.

After getting the room card, Zhao Qingshi carried her back to the bed. She closed her eyes, tears still visible. He subconsciously wanted to reach out and wipe them for her. His gaze lingered on her face for half a minute, then he withdrew his hand, and the door was closed from the outside.

Ruan Xiangyi had a long dream. When she woke up, it was almost dark outside. She reached for her phone and checked the time. It was 6:30 PM. She rolled over and lay on the end of the bed, looking out the window that was not completely covered by the curtains into the twilight outside.

She is hungry.

After getting up, washing up, and putting on her shoes, she suddenly thought of Zhao Qingshi. Was he still in Yuyao? Just to give it a try, Ruan Xiangyi sent him a text: "Have you left Yuyao? Do you want to go get something to eat?"

After sending the text message, he switched back to WeChat. The top pinned account hadn't responded to her for three days and didn't reply to her messages. She couldn't help but wonder if Ms. Lin had said something to him.

Shen Huaimeng didn't reply to her. Zhao Qingshi, who didn't seem to check his phone much and didn't reply to messages, replied to her: Downstairs.

Ruan Xiangyi took the room card and went out. Zhao Qingshi was waiting for her in the lobby downstairs. Seeing him, Ruan Xiangyi remembered what happened in the car at noon. Her eyes fell on his feet. He was not wearing the dirty leather shoes, but the hotel's disposable slippers. Perhaps because of his outstanding temperament, even the cheapest disposable slippers looked like they were specially made for him by a famous brand.

Ruan Xiangyi looked apologetic: "I'm sorry for ruining your shoes. Tell me a price and I'll compensate you when we get back to Yitong."

"Let's talk about it when we get back. I'm hungry." Zhao Qingshi walked in front, and it seemed that he was going to go out wearing these shoes.

"What do you want to eat?" Ruan Xiangyi followed him and asked, "I checked and there are barbecue, grilled fish, hot pot and other places nearby."

She tilted her head to look at him: "Are you satisfied?"

She was 1.65 meters tall, but she only reached his chin. She couldn't help but interrupt with a digression: "Zhao Qingshi, how tall are you?"

"Which question should I answer first?" He looked down at her coldly.

Okay, she said too much: "The one in front is fine."

"Didn't you say the riverside is comfortable today? Let's go there."

Ruan Xiangyi was a little surprised: "So you listened to it."

Zhao Qingshi frowned: "?"

She thought he had turned a deaf ear to everything she said at noon, but it turned out that he had heard it all.

"Nothing." She opened the app on her phone. "Are you sure you want to go there? I've got a taxi, okay?"

"Um."

"The riverside should be quite lively at this time." She chattered while opening the software, "The night view there is really comfortable, but I can't guarantee the taste of the restaurant." The feature of the riverside is drinking and enjoying the night view, and the taste is not as good as in the alleys. Zhao Qingshi is such a picky man, he will definitely find fault with her if he is not satisfied.

Having said that, Ruan Xiangyi still checked some riverside restaurants to see which one had better reviews, and finally decided on a barbecue restaurant.

"Can you accept barbecue?" She was really afraid that Zhao Qingshi, a young master who only went to high-end restaurants, would be dissatisfied. Fortunately, he didn't say anything and nodded.

After arriving at the barbecue restaurant, Ruan Xiangyi chose a table outside, which was just right for her to take in the scenery of the ancient town at night. The cruise ship was sailing in the middle of the river, and the people on the boat were singing and dancing. She took out her mobile phone to record this moment.
