Lin Tingfeng started making phone calls to arrange the trip. In between calls, he said to her as if he were ordering his own child, "Go, change into some new clothes and dress yourself up nicely."
The distance between them seemed to have suddenly shortened considerably.
Ye Wenyu hadn't bought new clothes in a long time. Like all young girls, she wanted to wear new clothes, but she couldn't accept his gift. In their relationship, their positions were too disparate. He had always been the giver, and she was the receiver. She already owed him too much and didn't know how to repay him. The only way was to ask him for as little as possible.
He told her to change into new clothes, but though he was happy inside, he didn't do it.
Seeing that Ye Wenyu was still standing quietly in place, Lin Tingfeng waved his hand and urged her, "Go quickly. I personally picked out and bought those clothes for you. If you don't wear them, you'll have to throw them all away."
What? He bought it for her personally, picked it out himself? Could it be that he wasn't as indifferent to her as he seemed? All along, she thought he was cautious, distant, cold, and restrained towards her, but it turns out the truth was quite different.
A surge of joy welled up inside her, making her feel warm all over. A gentle atmosphere filled the air, but—
Seeing that she was still standing there motionless, Lin Tingfeng had no choice but to hang up the phone. He gazed at her and said gently, "The condition for repaying the tuition is that you accompany me on a trip while wearing the new clothes I bought you."
We can't use soft tactics; we have to use hard ones.
Left with no other choice, Ye Wenyu went back into the room to change her clothes, becoming as docile as a little lamb.
Seeing her performance, Lin Tingfeng was very pleased and cheerfully called out from behind her, "Have the auntie pack up all the other new clothes you don't need for now, so you can wear them on the road."
Ye Wenyu smiled with her back to him, her heart filled with a sweet feeling, as if she had eaten candy, and a gentle and romantic atmosphere lingered in the air.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Wenyu appeared in front of Lin Tingfeng wearing a white dress. The fitted style made her look slender and very attractive.
Looking at Wen Yu's unmade-up face, Lin Tingfeng thought of the women in social circles who dressed themselves up in designer brands like walking Christmas trees. Comparing the two, he felt a surge of pride. He nodded in satisfaction and said to Wen Yu, "Get in the car, let's go!" His tone was still calm and restrained, but his voice was also more cheerful.
Ye Wenyu nodded with a slightly flushed face and looked at Lin Tingfeng. Today, he was wearing a black rainproof windbreaker, colorful sunglasses, and hiking boots, looking both handsome and cool, and very casual. Ye Wenyu noticed that he seemed to only wear black, but no matter what style of clothes it was, probably because he was tall and strong, they all looked very good on him.
He's practically a male fashion model, a walking clothes rack.
Their car was a white Mercedes SUV, which cost about five million.
Ye Wenyu mentally counted the different brands of luxury cars she had seen him own, and it seemed she couldn't count them all on her fingers. She inexplicably recalled what Sicong had once said: "Why do you buy so many clothes? To wear them. I buy so many cars, to drive them."
Lin Tingfeng put their luggage in the trunk of the car. Ye Wenyu walked towards the back seat, but Lin Tingfeng stopped her and said, "You sit in the passenger seat." It was still a commanding tone, but his voice was gentle.
Ye Wenyu stopped in her tracks.
He had already opened the passenger door with a gentlemanly air, smiled slightly, and said to her in an explanatory tone, "Please forgive me for speaking to you in this tone. It's just a habit. Over the years, I've found that when I speak in this tone, the people around me are more likely to obey, and the work is much more efficient."
Ye Wenyu thought of herself. When he spoke in a commanding tone, she had no choice but to obey. Now that he wanted her to sit in the passenger seat, she seemed unable to refuse and had no choice but to obediently sit in the passenger seat.
The SUV had a very high chassis. She was recovering from a serious illness and was still weak. The moment she got into the vehicle, she lost her footing and didn't have enough strength. She fell like a ball. "Ah!" she screamed in terror as she fell.
Fortunately, Lin Tingfeng was right behind her, and in a flash, he reached out and caught her.
He held her in his arms and chuckled softly.
Ye Wenyu felt a "boom" in her head, and her face turned red, the color spreading from her cheeks to her earlobes. This was the first time he had hugged her since she recovered!
He must have carried her like this in a princess carry before when she was sick. Just look at the expressions of the servants who saw her off. You can tell that this was definitely not the first time he had carried her. But this time, Ye Wenyu was clearly aware that he was holding her tightly!
She was so shy and embarrassed that she felt like she could disappear. Her body stiffened and she dared not move. Yet, because she was being held tightly by the man she loved, she felt happy and sweet inside. Feeling lost, she said hurriedly with a flushed face, "Put me down quickly."
Fortunately, Lin Tingfeng respected her and simply lifted her into the passenger seat before putting her down.
Ye Wenyu quickly closed the passenger door and checked that the windows were tightly closed before she felt relieved, to avoid being ridiculed by the Lin family's servants.
Lin Tingfeng got into the driver's seat on the other side and smiled at her, "What are you shy about? They've seen it many times before. Don't you notice how skilled I am at holding you now? Hmm?"
Uh, what did you say?! Ye Wenyu blushed again; her face must have been so red it was practically bleeding.
Before this, she had been secretly thinking that perhaps the images of her snuggling up to him like a three-year-old child, begging him to carry her or hold her, were just her beautiful dreams during her illness, and not real. But now it seems that they are all real!
Oh my god, is there a hole in the ground? She wants to crawl into it.
Lin Tingfeng's movements as he carried her were indeed very practiced, and his words clearly implied this meaning. There were also the smiling faces of the Lin family's stewards and servants, as well as the change in Lin Tingfeng himself.
He seemed to know that she liked him, so he opened his arms and, abandoning his previous cautiousness and distance, became more affectionate and restrained towards her.
Memories, like colorful butterflies, floated into my mind. I remembered one time when he drove her back to school. The moment he opened the car door and let her out, her face was extremely close to his, so close that she could see his long, thick eyelashes. But he quickly leaned back, turned his face away, and distanced himself from her.
He would never have spoken so intimately, even with a teasing tone, before.
He changed because she made changes while she was sick, revealing all her girlish feelings, and he followed suit. Or was it because he had hidden it well beforehand, and now that he has discovered she likes him, he has opened his heart and shown his true colors?
While Ye Wenyu was lost in thought, Lin Tingfeng started the car.
