"What happened?" Pei Yan pushed away Chen Jiang and Yang Shao who were blocking his way, "Someone came to the store to cause trouble?"
"It's okay." Hua Jin patted Tan Yuan on the back and whispered, "Tangyuan, go and rest for a while." Tan Yuan nodded silently. She didn't want others to see her miserable appearance, so she turned and went into the utility room.
"Are you here to pick up the embroidered screen?" Hua Jin took out the newly installed embroidered screen. "I didn't expect you to come just after I sent a message to Mr. Yang."
Yang Shao took the box and said thank you, then pulled Chen Jiang who wanted to watch the fun, and the two of them tactfully went out.
Two girls opened a shop, and the business was good recently. It was inevitable that they would encounter some troublemakers. Pei Yan saw Tan Yuan crying in Hua Jin's arms, and he was worried that someone would bully them. After entering the shop, he slowly calmed down. The things in the shop were not messy. Although Hua Jin looked a little depressed, she didn't look like someone was picking on her maliciously.
"Are you free today? I want to take you to see a doctor this afternoon." Since it involved Hua Jin's friend's private affairs, Pei Yan did not ask much and explained his purpose.
"Afternoon?" Business in the past few days has slowly returned to normal, unlike the first half of the month when people were so busy that they had no time to rest. However, she was worried that Tan Yuan was in a bad mood, so she shook her head and said, "How about next time? It's a bit inconvenient today."
"Okay." Pei Yan nodded and put the thing in his hand on the table. It was a pink insulated food box. Good-looking men are different. Even if they are carrying girlish pink, they will only make people feel pleasing to the eye.
"Huahua." Tan Yuan said in the utility room, "You and Mr. Pei can go and do your work. I'll be here."
"But……"
"Don't worry about it. Take care of your feet as soon as possible so that you won't suffer too much on rainy days." Tan Yuan poked his head out, his eyes red but he looked pretty energetic. "Hurry up and leave. Don't stay here and disturb me while I paint the lacquer box."
Hua Jin was driven out by Tan Yuan along with her bag. She sat in the passenger seat holding her pink lunch box and looked at Pei Yan in silence for a long while, "Should I eat it in the car?"
"No need. Leave it for you to take back and eat in the evening. I'll take you to eat something else." Pei Yan took the lunch box from her hand and put it on the back seat of the car.
Hua Jin glanced at the back of the car: "Mr. Yang and Mr. Chen are not together?"
"No." Pei Yan started the car, "They have a dinner party."
The car became quiet. Pei Yan didn't dare to look at Hua Jin. He always felt that his heart would get nervous as soon as he saw her.
"What do you think of the weather today?" After a long silence, Pei Yan finally uttered this sentence.
"Very good." Hua Jin looked at Pei Yan doubtfully, feeling that something was not right with him today.
"So what do you think of me?" Pei Yan parked the car on the side of the road, turned to look at Hua Jin, and said seriously, "I want to hear the truth, no evasion!"
"She has a car and a house, she's beautiful and talented, she has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, rosy lips, and legs from the neck down." After Hua Jin finished praising, she saw Pei Yan was still staring at her, so she added a few more words, "She has fair skin and beautiful hands. I won't regret being your girlfriend."
"Tsk." Pei Yan turned his head away. "I think you have a talent for writing limericks."
"How could that be? These are all my sincere words. If you say anything false, I will punish you tenfold..."
"Since you think I'm so good, then I can be even better." Pei Yan raised his chin and said proudly, "I'll reluctantly accept you as my girlfriend, how about that?"
His expression was relaxed, but his hands gripped the steering wheel with extra force, as if he was desperately holding on to something and didn't want to let go.
"Hmm..." Hua Jin thought there was something wrong with her ears, "Hmm?!"
"Who said just now that every word was from the heart, and I'll punish you ten times if you're lying, and you won't regret being my girlfriend?" Pei Yan leaned slightly towards Hua Jin, looking at her quietly with his beautiful eyes, "Or were you lying to me with all those words just now?"
Hua Jin held the bag she brought with her and scratched the seat belt with her index finger: "I am a humble person with an ordinary background. How dare I have the heart to cling to you and let you be laughed at by everyone?"
"Speak human language."
"We're not a good match."
Pei Yan stared at Hua Jin for two seconds: "My appearance is not worthy of you?"
Hua Jin shook her head.
"My wealth is not good enough for you?"
Hua Jin continued to shake her head.
"My education is not good enough for you?"
Hua Jin's face turned dark, and he was talking about something that was not relevant.
"Then what are you worried about?" Pei Yan let go of the steering wheel with both hands, his eyes never leaving Hua Jin's eyes. "Being with me, you can do whatever you like. I won't question you, I will only learn to appreciate you and even support you to the utmost. There are not many men as good as me. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. Don't you really want to consider it?"
Hua Jin raised her head and saw Pei Yan's red ears and his Adam's apple trembling unconsciously.
Of course she knew that such a good man would be missed forever.
"But..." She pursed her lips and looked away, "My status is not worthy of you."
"Whether we are worthy of each other or not is not up to me to decide?" Pei Yan said, "You think I am worthy of you from body to soul, and I think you are reluctant to agree with me, then there is no such thing as worthy or not."
"It still doesn't work." Hua Jin shook his head stubbornly.
"What's wrong?" Pei Yan frowned.
"Look." Hua Jin counted on her fingers, "Have you ever given me flowers?"
"I gave it to you." Pei Yan nodded confidently, "Didn't you like the gardenias a few days ago?"
Hua Jin: “…”
"As a wealthy man, you have the nerve to mention a few gardenias as a gift?!"
"What's wrong with gardenia? It's fragrant and beautiful." Pei Yan coughed dryly, "Then tell me, what else is wrong with it?"
"From the time we met until now, I never felt that you liked me." Hua Jin snorted, "Could it be that you rich guys deliberately made bets to chase women and make fun of me?"
"Hua Jin!" Pei Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Am I that kind of person?"
"Then tell me now and I will believe you." Hua Jin took out his cell phone.
"Ahem." Pei Yan's eyes wandered around uncomfortably, "I said, you will be my girlfriend?"
"You speak first." Hua Jin looked at him with sparkling eyes.
"You women are so hard to please." Pei Yan turned his head away from her, and after a few seconds, he turned back and said, "Then... what did I say?"
"Yeah." Hua Jin nodded.
"I like you."
"You're so reluctant. What does 'Xi' mean? I don't understand." Hua Jin curled her lips. "I can tell at a glance that you're not sincere. I know that you rich people like to play with beautiful girls like me who are simple-minded and as noble as lotus flowers..."
"I like you, I like you, I like you, I like you the most!" Pei Yan was so angry at Hua Jin that he was fuming. He growled, "I just fell in love with you, okay?"
Hua Jin looked at Pei Yan, whose face was red, and the corners of her mouth curved up: "Well, although you are blind, I don't dislike you because you are good-looking."
"Then you will be my girlfriend from now on..." Pei Yan's smile froze on his face, and he pointed at the phone in Hua Jin's hand, "You actually recorded the video?!"
"Words are not enough, this is the evidence." Hua Jin hid the phone behind her back, tilted her head and looked at Pei Yan with a smile, "You said you liked me, I will keep this for the rest of my life."
Thinking that his blushing confession was recorded, Pei Yan reached for his phone and said, "Hurry up and delete it."
"No." Hua Jin shook her head and hid her phone behind her back. "If you ask me to delete it, I will. That would be so embarrassing."
One reached out to grab it, the other hid behind. Pei Yan opened his arms, as if he was hugging Hua Jin to his chest.
Pei Yan's head was buzzing the moment the soft cloud touched his chest. He forgot all about the video, the shame, and the anger. He felt like a petrified statue.
"You said you wanted to be my boyfriend, but you didn't even want me to take a video." Hua Jin took the opportunity to rub Pei Yan's neck twice and pretended to cry, "Oh, oh, oh, I knew you didn't like me at all. You're playing with my feelings, you scumbag."
"Okay, okay, keep it if you want." Pei Yan felt like his entire chest was on fire, burning his mind. He glared at Hua Jin fiercely, "Don't show it to others."
"No." Hua Jin put the phone into her bag, "I won't show it to anyone."
"Hmph." Pei Yan snorted awkwardly, "Fix your seat belts, and let's go eat."
When the car reached the traffic light, Pei Yan suddenly said, "We can show it to our children."
"What?" Hua Jin looked up in confusion.
"I said, you should keep that video. When we are old, we can show it to our children." Pei Yan said coldly, "After watching this video, they will know how difficult and unreasonable you are."
Hua Jin stared at his profile in a daze, and gently pinched the bag containing the phone. After a while, she smiled and said, "Well, keep it for a lifetime."
Pei Yan raised his handsome chin and was finally satisfied.
How many women in the world would secretly record a man's confession? When they have children and grandchildren in the future, they must educate them well and never learn from his blindness and fall in love with such a woman.
If I could have a daughter... I wouldn't want her to be as miserable as her mother. After all, there aren't many men in the world with such unusual aesthetic tastes as him.
What should have been a grand and romantic confession was turned into a childish version of kindergarten house playing by Hua Jin and Pei Yan.
After finishing lunch and sitting back in Pei Yan's car, Hua Jin gradually felt the reality.
"So, I have succeeded in clinging to someone's influence and have become the Cinderella?"
Pei Yan smiled proudly, but he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes: "Humph."
Hua Jin turned her head to look at him. According to the normal process of "The Domineering CEO Falls in Love with Me", Pei Yan should take her to buy all kinds of jewelry and famous brands at this time. What does this "humph" mean?
Maybe, just maybe... I found a fake boyfriend.
Following the steps of her "fake" boyfriend, Hua Jin arrived outside a courtyard house. The door of the courtyard house was ajar, and Pei Yan pushed the door open and walked in. Hua Jin pulled his sleeve from behind him, "Yan Yan, are all the people you know big shots who own big villas and courtyard houses?"
"Don't call me Yanyan." Pei Yan pulled away her hand that was pulling her sleeve, and with a red face, he held her hand in his palm, "Don't be envious, we have it too."
"You have it." Hua Jin muttered softly.
"You are already my woman, so you should have the awareness of Cinderella turning over and becoming the queen." Pei Yan stopped and looked at her. "I don't have much else, but I have a lot of money and houses. You must remember that what's mine is yours. If you encounter someone showing off their wealth in front of you in the future, don't feel inferior. We will show off in return."
Hua Jin: “…”
This kind of domineering and wealthy declaration is so cool to hear!
When they arrived at the yard, Pei Yan did not move forward, but raised his voice and said, "Doctor Lin, I'm here."
"I know you are coming, just come in." An elderly voice came from a house not far away, and it sounded like he was very close to Pei Yan.
Hua Jin was a little nervous. She had just become Pei Yan's girlfriend, and she was going to meet his relatives and friends? She pulled her hand. Was it not a bit inappropriate to hold hands in front of the elders?
Unfortunately, Pei Yan didn't understand her anxious mood at all. Not only did he not let go of her hand, he held it even tighter. He turned his head to look at Hua Jin. Although he looked very cold, Hua Jin saw some grievance in his eyes.
Forget it, Hua Jin stopped struggling.
She didn't dare to guess how long this relationship could last. If she could preserve more good memories during the time she had, why would she care about other people's opinions?
Realizing that Hua Jin no longer intended to pull her hand away and instead held two of his fingers, Pei Yan's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He brought Hua Jin into the house and said to the old man inside: "Doctor Lin, sorry to bother you."
Doctor Lin glanced at their clasped hands, then gave Pei Yan a meaningful look and asked them to sit down: "Since you are here, how can I chase you away? Little girl, come sit over here, I'll take your pulse."
"Thank you, Dr. Lin." Hua Jin sat on the carved wooden chair and stretched out her hand.
Pei Yan looked down at his empty palms, shamelessly dragged a chair, and sat next to Hua Jin.
Doctor Lin ignored him. After a while, he felt Hua Jin's pulse on her other hand and sighed, "You probably had malnutrition when you were young, which had some impact on your physical development, but it's not a big problem. Just pay attention to your diet now."
Pei Yan frowned. Malnutrition? What kind of life did Hua Jin live in the past?
"Her knee was injured before, and now it hurts easily when it rains. Can you help her?" Pei Yan said, "She is so young now, how much suffering will she suffer when she is old?"
Doctor Lin stood up and glared at him: "Stand further away and don't block my sight."
Hua Jin lifted up her skirt, revealing her knees. Pei Yan shrank behind her and helped hold down the edge of her skirt.
After Dr. Lin checked her, he looked at Hua Jin seriously and asked, "Did you get this injury after being hit hard?"
Hua Jin didn't look up at Pei Yan, but just nodded slightly.
"This injury should have been five or six years ago. The old injury has not gone away. It should be because it was not treated well during the recovery period." Doctor Lin has met many patients and has no intention of exploring other people's past. "Young man, you should take care of your body. If your knee continues to be like this, you may not even be able to walk when you are old."
Pei Yan's face turned pale, and he gently placed his hand on Hua Jin's shoulder: "That's why I need you to help her. With your help, the pain will be gone for sure."
"You don't have to flatter me." Doctor Lin said, "This is an old illness and she needs to recover slowly. I'll prescribe two prescriptions for you. You can find the best herbs yourself. I'll make some plasters myself, so you can take some back and apply them to her slowly. If it works, I'll slowly improve the prescriptions."
"Thank you." Hua Jin thanked softly.
"Doctors are like parents to us. You young people should take good care of your health. This is the greatest way to express your gratitude to us doctors." Doctor Lin looked at Hua Jin and said, "Your leg should not be exposed to cold, rain, or heavy objects. You can soak it in hot water if you are fine. Otherwise, no one will take care of you when it hurts."
"I remember." Hua Jin nodded obediently.
"After you finish the first two courses of medicine, I will give you acupuncture." Doctor Lin was very satisfied with Hua Jin's attitude, so he said, "Take good care of you and let you grow a little more flesh."
Although the injection had not yet taken place, Hua Jin felt a numbness in her knee after hearing this.
Doctor Lin gave Pei Yan the ointment and prescription: "Take good care of her. Remember not to let her exercise too much. If she gets injured again by accident, it will be very troublesome."
Pei Yan secretly took note of what Doctor Lin said, and took away a few leg-nourishing medicinal recipes. Doctor Lin could no longer tolerate this and drove him out.
Sitting in the car, Pei Yan stared at Hua Jin's knees for a long while: "Doctor Lin said that you can't exercise your legs too much, and you can't let them get hurt again. Do you understand?"
Hua Jin: "So?"
"Have you ever considered moving to a place closer, or asking your excellent golden thigh to pick you up on the way to and from get off work?" Pei Yan coughed dryly, "Your golden thigh not only has a car, but also a house."
"It's too much trouble to have you deliver it every day, and the gas cost is not worth it." Hua Jin shook her head, "The extra money I spend on gas every day can be used to buy a serving of crayfish."
"Then you can live somewhere else. Some houses are empty anyway."
"Not for now. When you propose to me in the future, I can take advantage of you." Hua Jin shook her head. "We have only been lovers for a few hours. If we move out so early, it will easily affect my noble image that I cannot move even in poverty."
Pei Yan said thoughtfully: "Are you reminding me to propose to you earlier?"
Isn't this a bit too fast? Isn't it said that many new-age women nowadays enjoy being in love and don't want to step into the grave of marriage?
Could it be that the news he saw was wrong?
"I'm not, I don't." Hua Jin turned her head away, "The point of my words is obviously my virtue that cannot be changed by poverty and humbleness!"
Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "I would like to move to your place, but your place is too small and there is no room for me."
"You bastard, don't even think about it!" You want to applaud love right after we confirmed our relationship. Even if he is good-looking, you can't do whatever you want!
Pei Yan: “…”
How could he be a hooligan? He was worried about her, a girl living alone, and wanted to live with her to take care of her. How could he be a hooligan?
This woman is really unreasonable.
After sending Hua Jin downstairs, Pei Yan held her back and said, "Remember to apply the ointment."
"I know." Hua Jin nodded, "I will definitely not forget it."
"I will make a video call to supervise you at night. Don't get away with it."
Hua Jin continued to nod. He just wanted to find a reason to video chat with her. She understood. When a man becomes awkward, it is really irresistible.
Pei Yan looked up at the shabby little building and sighed: "Remember to close the doors and windows at night, and don't open the door to strangers casually."
"Okay, okay, Uncle Pei, I remember everything." Hua Jin nodded with a smile.
"Then, then I'll leave?" Pei Yan squeezed Hua Jin's hand. He had never realized before that her hand was so comfortable to hold.
"Well, let's go." Hua Jin waved.
Pei Yan looked at Hua Jin silently. This ungrateful little bastard didn't show any reluctance at all. He leaned over and kissed her forehead gently: "I'll pick you up tomorrow." After saying that, he turned around and strode away, very imposing.
But those red ears betrayed his heart.
Hua Jin looked at Pei Yan's departing back, and after a long time, she patted her hot face, turned around and found several people standing on the second and third floors.
she:"……"
These people, having nothing to do after dinner, come to watch her have fun?
The author has something to say: Pei Yan: Today, I am full of the temperament of a domineering president~
