Chapter 41 I will definitely come home on time
So Ye Qingning, who had just walked less than 500 meters from the pawnshop, was called back by a phone call.
When she arrived, Zhou Xuan's greasy boyfriend was slinking away with a cardboard box, while Zhou Xuan followed closely behind, apologizing incessantly.
At the door, the greasy man threw the box into the car, glanced at Zhou Xuan, and drove off while cursing.
Zhou Xuan stomped her foot and glared at Ye Qingning resentfully.
Ye Qingning shrugged: "Bye~"
Although she didn't know why, she felt quite pleased to see Zhou Xuan's frustrated expression.
This time, the appraiser was clearly more courteous than before, offering a price after only a cursory glance at the bag.
Almost all of them were purchased at a 10% discount.
After typing the price onto the calculator, the appraiser politely asked her, "Ms. Ye, do you find this price acceptable? If not, I can add a little more."
"No need." Ye Qingning turned around, took out some jewelry from her backpack and placed it on the table, smiling, "Just take my jewelry back."
The appraiser's expression stiffened slightly, but he maintained his warm smile: "Okay, Ms. Ye, please wait a moment."
Fifteen minutes later, Ye Qingning left the pawnshop with a bank card containing 500,000 yuan.
On her way home, she stopped by a haute couture shop to finalize a suit design with the designer, and bought some desserts at the dessert shop next door before taking a taxi to the Lin residence.
I arrived home at breakneck speed, and it was almost midnight.
As soon as Ye Qingning entered the door, she saw Lin Feiyan sitting in the living room with a somewhat cold expression on his face.
"Are you hungry?" Ye Qingning greeted him with a smile, placing the desserts in front of him one by one. "Have something to eat first, and I'll go cook right away."
Ye Qingning turned to leave, but the man grabbed her wrist again, followed by his cold voice: "Why are you so late?"
"Something came up and I was held up." Ye Qingning smiled gently. "I'll be more careful next time."
Looking into her clear, bright eyes, Lin Feiyan gently rubbed his thumb against her wrist: "Have you encountered anything troublesome?"
"No, it went very smoothly, much smoother than I expected." Ye Qingning raised an eyebrow.
She thought those bags and jewelry would only sell for a few hundred thousand, but they more than doubled her expectations.
How could things not go smoothly!
Lin Feiyan narrowed his eyes slightly and released her wrist: "Very good, go cook."
Ye Qingning smiled and nodded: "Then you should eat something first to tide you over. I'll be right back."
Lin Feiyan's gaze lingered on the pile of brightly colored desserts and milk tea, and he said with a hint of disdain, "I'm not eating these, I want to eat rice."
Ye Qingning swallowed hard: "Okay."
She really wanted to eat it...
...
Since the men were waiting to be fed, Ye Qingning's lunch preparations were relatively simple.
Scallion oil noodles, cucumber salad, a small green vegetable dish, and spare ribs cooked last night.
Lin Feiyan ate with great relish, which made Ye Qingning very happy.
It was that feeling of being needed that made her feel fulfilled.
She watched him eat heartily, her chin resting on her hand, a warmth she herself was unaware of gradually spreading through her heart.
Ye Qingning only looked away when the man put down his chopsticks and looked up, their eyes meeting.
Suddenly feeling her face burning, she gave an embarrassed laugh: "Was my cooking good?"
Lin Feiyan nodded politely, "Mm."
Ye Qingning was surprised by his cooperation and paused for a moment before saying, "I'm glad you like it... I'll go upstairs for a nap first, I'll clean up the restaurant this afternoon..."
She ran a few steps, then turned back to look at the man, scratching her head: "Mr. Lin, do you have any clothes that need to be sent to the dry cleaners? I have to go out this afternoon..."
Haute couture clothes require tailoring, but since that outfit was a surprise gift for Lin Feiyan, it was impossible for her to publicly take him to have his measurements taken.
So the only thing we could do was try to send a set of clothes over.
Lin Feiyan's gaze lingered on her seemingly innocent face: "There's a set of clothes hanging on the clothes rack by the door, take it and wash it."
Ye Qingning smiled and said, "Okay, and I'll definitely be back on time this afternoon, so don't worry."
Lin Feiyan nodded with an air of arrogance, and Ye Qingning turned and ran away.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the dining table, and surprisingly, he didn't feel annoyed by the mess of cups and plates.
After leaving the pawn shop, Ye Qingning went to a high-end boutique and ordered a suit. Now she was subtly trying to get his clothes.
Does this mean that the haute couture suit was for him?
Lin Feiyan narrowed his eyes. It would be best if that were the case.
Otherwise, he'll show her the consequences of betraying him!
