Chapter 66: Yin Dark wants her to accept herself completely.
Bo Xia lowered her eyes and saw that the faint mole at the corner of his eye was gradually reappearing as it was before.
Even in those unreal dreams of my girlhood, there had never been such an intimate moment as this one. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't imagine what he looked like now.
She was looked up at, letting herself float on the waves of the sea.
The questions that I thought about before getting together seemed to no longer need answers in many moments.
Life is short, so just enjoy many things to the fullest.
Jin Yunyan was about to get intimate with her when his cell phone rang. He tried to pretend he didn't hear it, but the person in his arms pushed him.
The nature of his job sometimes made it impossible to completely separate his life from work, so he had no choice but to answer Song Cen's call. He listened to the other party's voice, his hand still on Bo Xia's waist, caressing it intermittently.
Bo Xia squeezed his hand, her soft eyes signaling him to let go. She got off the sofa and took a shower. When Jin Yunyan finished, he went to see her again. Her door was not locked, and he could go in by just turning the doorknob.
He stood at the door and looked at her peaceful sleeping face. After a while, he leaned over and carefully kissed her forehead. He also helped her turn off the night light on the bedside table before leaving her room.
Jin Yunyan's life hadn't changed much since he started dating, except that he spent less and less time with his friends. Sheng Chi had called to complain, asking if he was listening too much to his sister-in-law, which was why they rarely saw each other.
In his friend's opinion, it was Bo Xia who controlled and stuck to him. Jin Yunyan actually thought with regret, if only it were so.
He and Bo Xia are in love as adults, and both are rational and independent.
There is nothing wrong with this, and it even fits Jin Yunyan's previous imagination of love.
But sometimes love is such a magical thing that it can easily turn one person into another.
Jin Yunyan glanced at his watch, then stood up and left the office.
On the way to find Bo Xia, he went to a restaurant that she liked before and packed up the restaurant's private dishes. On the way, Jin Yunyan called her and said that he had ordered takeout for her and asked her to remember to pick it up later.
At that time, Bo Xia was busy drawing the design and didn't think much about it, so he just said yes.
When she received the message from Jin Yunyan that the takeaway had arrived, the office door was knocked by thin joints. She looked up and saw a delivery boy in a black shirt, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, leaning against the door with her takeaway.
Jin Yunyan tilted his head slightly, his eyes slightly raised: "Aren't you coming to sign for your takeaway?"
She was a little surprised. Before she could walk over, Jin Yunyan had already come over to open the packed lunch box and placed the chopsticks in front of her considerately: "Remember to give a five-star rating."
Bo Xia picked up the rice, raised her smiling eyes, and asked the delivery man if he would deliver it. If not, I couldn't give him five stars.
The requirements are quite high?
Jin Yunyan revealed his businessman's nature, his gentle eyes tinged with a hint of possessiveness: "You can give it as a gift, but what will Miss Bo pay for this dinner?"
Her attack was easily resolved, and the not-so-spacious space was instantly filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
After taking two bites, Bo Xia remembered something and picked up a piece of beef and handed it to his lips: "Have you eaten it?"
"I had a simple meal when I came here." Although he said that, Jin Yunyan accepted the food she fed him.
In the quiet space, Jin Yunyan watched her eat the whole time. Seeing that she was still thinking about her work after finishing, he took a tissue next to her and helped her wipe the corner of her lips.
Just at this moment, the door was opened from the outside. The person who could come in without knocking was naturally no one else except Meng Xubai. He paused and nodded as a greeting to Jin Yunyan.
He walked over to Bo Xia and discussed the design with her. They both seemed to be immersed in it. When Meng Xubai was about to leave, Jin Yunyan also stood up: "I'll wait for you outside."
"But I'll be there for a long time. You should go back first."
"No matter how long it is, just keep busy."
As the two walked out of the office, Meng Xubai suddenly asked him if he wanted to have a cup of coffee together.
Jin Yunyan's expression was a little dull. He didn't have the habit of drinking coffee at this time, but after a while he still agreed.
Entering the tea room, Meng Xubai made coffee with his back to him. He heard Jin Yunyan ask with a smile, "Are all people in their line of work so busy?" His tone sounded like he was just curious about their profession, but Meng Xubai was a shrewd man who had made it this far in the industry, so he naturally heard the deeper meaning in his tone.
I'm asking him whether, as a boss, he's exploiting his subordinates.
Meng Xubai smiled but said nothing, knowing that Jin Yunyan was worried about his girlfriend. After the coffee was ready, he picked up a cup and placed it in front of Jin Yunyan, the porcelain making a slight sound as it hit the table.
"Do you think I made her work overtime, or did she do it voluntarily?"
This sentence sounded too much like the words of a boss trying to pua a subordinate. Meng Xubai knew it, but he sat down and looked at Jin Yunyan, then continued: "Her goal has never been just to be an employee here. It started from the moment she set foot here."
Meng Xubai added, "Mr. Jin, she is not an ordinary person."
During this period, he was completely open with Bo Xia. Someone noticed something and talked about it with Meng Xubai, saying that if Bo Xia set up his own business in the future, wouldn't he be making things difficult for others?
But Meng Xubai knew from the beginning that Bo Xia was an ambitious person. Instead, he hoped that she could go a little higher and that her efforts deserved a better ending.
Jin Yunyan certainly knew Bo Xia's ambitions, otherwise he would not often take her to meet his friends and use his connections to pave the way for her.
He just inexplicably didn't want to hear these things from Meng Xubai, as if the other party was showing off to him -
I know Bo Xia better than you do now, and I also know her career and life better than you do.
He didn't say anything else, and Meng Xubai also remained silent. After all, there was no need for pleasantries between rivals in love.
The two of them sat in silence, and soon left.
At eight o'clock, Bo Xia finished her work, and when she came out, Jin Yunyan took the things from her hand. She paused, as she was only now getting used to being taken care of.
She needed to be alone since she was very young. Even as early as her infancy, her parents did not give her a sense of security, so she was too independent and sometimes felt uncomfortable with having someone around her.
Jin Yunyan opened the car door and asked her if she wanted to go to a nearby bar to sit for a while, or take her home to rest.
Before she answered, she saw Jin Yunyan received a call. Yu Qinghe's name appeared on the phone screen. Jin Yunyan hung up the phone consciously, and then the other party called again.
Bo Xia couldn't bear to watch it any longer: "Take it, just in case there's something important."
So Jin Yunyan answered the phone and turned on the speakerphone.
The voice on the other end seemed a bit shaky, and the background was noisy. She said she was drunk and wanted him to pick her up. But she could have called anyone else, but she had chosen to call her.
Jin Yunyan lowered his eyelids and turned off the screen almost without hesitation.
Bo Xia held his hand and said, "It's not safe for her to be alone at this late hour. She's nearby anyway, so let's go check it out."
Jin Yunyan looked at her in some surprise, as if trying to see through her thoughts. After a while, he told the driver the address.
When they arrived, they opened the door and went in. They saw Yu Qinghe seemed quite conscious, chatting and laughing with the people around her. Bo Xia thought that since she had come, she went over to take a look. Yu Qinghe was originally happy to see Jin Yunyan, but when she saw them holding hands, she became angry and blurted out, "Are you here to protest?"
Bo Xia ignored her unreasonable behavior and asked, "Are you still awake? Do you need a taxi?"
What is this?
Yu Qinghe was usually quite respectable, but now the alcohol had eroded his rationality. For a moment, he felt that the other party's behavior made him look less like a good person. So he said to Bo Xia angrily, "I didn't call you. Why are you pretending to be a good person? Do I need your care?"
She became angrier and angrier as she spoke, her voice even beginning to sob: "Ayan and I have known each other for so long, why do you, the latecomer, have the upper hand?"
Jin Yunyan's face was a little cold, and in Yu Qinghe's sight, he only saw his always indifferent eyes: "There is no such thing as a latecomer taking the lead. She has always been the one who came first."
Because in his world, everyone else is just a passerby.
Yu Qinghe's nose felt a little sore as she heard the person she had been pursuing for a long time continue, "Have you had enough of your temper? If you still want to maintain our current relationship, I hope you can be more polite to her next time."
He is usually gentle, but that doesn't mean he can be offended at will, let alone to the people around him.
Seeing that the air pressure around him was a little low, even though Yu Qinghe was not yet sober, he was almost sober now and did not dare to say those words again.
Bo Xia originally just had good intentions, but seeing that she spoke like that, he didn't intend to remain a good person to the end. Just as he was about to leave with Jin Yunyan, he heard a sound behind him.
The waiter next to her noticed that Yu Qinghe looked unwell and asked her in panic what was wrong. Bo Xia looked back and saw that she looked very uncomfortable, so he quickly asked Jin Yunyan to help take her to the hospital.
After arriving and checking, it was confirmed that he had gastric perforation. Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time, so his life was not in danger.
Zhou Qingyue happened to be on duty at the hospital. After telling them about the condition, he asked what happened to Miss Yu. Jin Yunyan glanced at Bo Xia, solved the problem by himself, and took her home.
Bo Xia asked Yu Qinghe if anyone was taking care of him, and he said he had called Sheng Chi to come over.
Although Sheng Chi cursed while making the call, he was quicker than anyone else.
Jin Yunyan leaned back slightly in his chair, his Adam's apple rolling up and down, as if he was a little annoyed by Qinghe's persistence. A hint of smile appeared in his breath, and he stroked her slender waist with one hand: "Why don't you say anything? Do you still want to take care of her yourself?"
"Miss Yu doesn't pay me, so what am I supposed to do?" Bo Xia couldn't help laughing. "I just think that if it were you, you wouldn't leave her alone."
There was a hint of subtle pity in her eyes, and it was unclear whether it was directed at her past self or the present Yu Qinghe.
Jin Yunyan lowered his eyes and looked at her, as if he saw a perfect self in her eyes.
Even though she knew that what she loved at the beginning was just her own fantasy, she was still willing to think in a good way about him. A proud person like him couldn't help but think at that moment, if she knew that he was not as good as she imagined, would she still love him?
So he wanted to hide his darkness, but at the same time, with a somewhat morbid idea, he wanted to reveal another side of himself to her, wanting her to accept him completely.
"How do you know? If it were me, I would definitely take care of her." Jin Yunyan turned his head and looked at her quietly, his eyes like a flooding but cold tide.
Of course, Bo Xia didn't think that he wouldn't, because in those ordinary and dark days, he had so gently pulled her out of her isolated and helpless situation, even though they didn't have much interaction at that time.
She asked back, but in a firm tone: "You won't?"
His voice was cold: "At most I'll call someone else and let them handle it."
Bo Xia didn't think those gentle actions were a facade. She took his hand and whispered, "I understand."
He found what she said a little confusing, and with a smile on his lips, he asked her what she understood.
"I understand you don't want to make me jealous, but I'm more generous than you think."
But Jin Yunyan couldn't be happy. His deep eyes stayed on her face for a long time, as if he wanted to engrave every expression of hers in his eyes: "What if I hope you can be stingy, just like I am to you."
As their eyes met, there seemed to be a sound of cold water falling, with a splash.
