For a fleeting moment, Zhu Qianying thought she had stumbled into a parallel world and seen an individual with the same body as Yan Shao, but whose soul was completely different.
The Yan Shao she knew shouldn't be like this.
Instead, it should be that they come in with their suitcases, and then...
No! There won't be a suitcase at all. Because the young master Yan she knows will clear out all her belongings when she leaves, so they won't be an eyesore.
Instead of what is happening now, where not only are her belongings carefully preserved, but she also returns them five years later and patiently lets her entertain herself with her witty banter.
Zhu Qianying got up, walked over in a few steps, squatted down, and slammed the suitcase shut.
"Stop packing! I may be poor, but I'm not so poor that I can't even afford these things!"
Yan Shao remained half-squatting, looking directly at her at the same level. In his unfathomable eyes, besides many emotions that Zhu Qianying was unwilling to touch, there was also a hint of hurt.
He moved his lips, as if to explain something, but Zhu Qianying spoke first.
"Young Master Yan, I beg you, please stop torturing me, okay?"
She didn't want to continue this tangled mess with Yan Shao, and as far as she knew, Yan Shao never had a clingy personality trait.
Compared to the mutated Yan Shao before her, she would much rather face the old him, who was decisive and efficient in dealing with people and things, never dragging things out, unpredictable and capricious, selfish and arrogant, and never caring about the feelings of others...
Yan Shao stared at her intently for a long time before straightening up and saying in a calm, even voice, "You should rest for a while. I'll go shopping with you later."
Zhu Qianying watched his tall figure disappear into the distance, and as the door closed silently, she felt as if all her strength had been suddenly drained away, and she slumped to the floor in despair.
After some time, Hai Shu's voice and knocking came from outside the door. Zhu Qianying propped herself up, went to open the door, took the laptop, and asked.
"Uncle Hai, is Zizai asleep?"
Uncle Hai nodded, "Yes, the young master and the master and mistress are sleeping with Xingxing on the carpet in the bedroom..."
After being repeatedly tormented by Yan Shao, Zhu Qianying had completely lost her interest and energy for work. She went into the washroom, washed her face with water, and then came out to hug a cushion and curl up on the sofa, lost in thought.
The meditation lasted for about half an hour before Zhu Qianying finally calmed her mind. She picked up her computer, opened her cloud drive, downloaded a bunch of work software, copied her work progress, and then began to work.
The design drawings for the rings designed for Yan Bo and his wife have already been sent to the factory. They should receive the rings in the next few days. The designs for the clients introduced by Young Master Yan have also been basically finalized.
Now, besides designing Ying Jewelry, she also has to work on the gift she promised to give to Young Master Yan.
Zhu Qianying had no clue about the gift. It wasn't that she didn't understand Yan Shao's taste or preferences, but rather that she was unsure what the gift meant to him.
From the perspective of gift design alone, one should focus more on sentiment and meaning. But given her current awkward relationship with him, wouldn't adding sentiment and meaning only make him overthink things?
Because of this concern, the design has been shelved.
Looking back now, Zhu Qianying really regrets it. Why did she agree to Yan Shao's offer so readily?
He really asked for trouble!
Having no clue what to do, Zhu Qianying decided to put it on hold and focus on designing a new product.
While little Zizai was calling from outside the door, Zhu Qianying was designing a pair of adorable children's bracelets. The inspiration came from the twin siblings of the eldest son of the Ji family.
As she sketched, she even thought to herself, "Why don't I give these two siblings a pair of bracelets as gifts? Let the young master and young lady of the Ji family be my living advertisements. I'm sure the effect will be excellent!"
"Mommy...are you awake yet?"
The little guy's voice was very soft, like a cat's, coming through the crack in the door, probably because he was afraid of waking Zhu Qianying.
But in fact, most mothers are very sensitive to their children's voices, not to mention that Zhu Qianying was not asleep at all.
She put her computer aside, got up, and went to open the door.
The little one, smelling fresh after his bath, jumped onto her as soon as the door opened, burying his head in her belly and nuzzling her a few times. "Mommy, did you sleep well?"
Zhu Qianying felt a little guilty. Before she could answer, the little guy caught a glimpse of the computer casually placed on the coffee table out of the corner of his eye. He suddenly let go of Zhu Qianying, went behind her, raised his little hand and smacked her bottom a few times. "Mommy was naughty, I'm going to spank you!"
This was an agreement between mother and son. Knowing she was in the wrong, Zhu Qianying obediently stuck out her bottom slightly and let the little guy slap her.
"Mommy, if you don't sleep, you'll turn into an ugly old woman!"
After finishing his cigarette, the little guy stood in front of her, hands on his hips, and started lecturing her.
Zhu Qianying nodded obediently, indicating that she knew she was wrong. "Yes! Mommy knows she was wrong. I'll go to sleep right now..."
He scooped up the fragrant little one, ran to the bedside, threw the little one onto the bed, and then pressed down on him like a mountain.
"Hahaha...Mommy, you're so heavy...Mommy, let me go..." The guy was laughing so hard he could hardly breathe as she pinned him down.
"No, no, Mommy's become an ugly old woman. If I let you go, this fair and tender little thing will run away. Who will want to stay and keep me company then?"
After a while of fussing, the little one finally managed to wriggle out of her arms, tilting his flushed little face up and panting slightly as he comforted her, "Mommy, don't worry, even if you really become an ugly old woman, I'll always be with you..."
Zhu Qianying felt a warm glow in her heart, and she really wished she could hold this little guy like this for the rest of her life.
But in reality, of course, that's impossible.
The mother and son had only been playing on the bed for a few minutes when there was another knock on the door behind them. "Zizai, didn't you say you were going to go grocery shopping with Mommy and Grandma?"
It was Young Master Yan's voice.
The little one jumped out of bed, stood up, and reached out to tug at Zhu Qianying, who was pretending to be dead. "Mommy, get up! Let's go buy something delicious!"
Zhu Qianying opened her eyes and sat up, reaching out to pinch his chubby cheeks. "All you ever think about is delicious food. If you keep eating, you'll become a little fatso!"
The little thing, with a confidence that came from nowhere, snorted through its nose, "Don't worry, even if I really get fat and become a chubby little guy, I'll still be the most handsome chubby little guy."
Zhu Qianying rolled her eyes at him. "Then eat as much as you want. From now on, you won't have to walk; you'll have to roll!"
