In the end, Yan Qing left because it was too late and he was too sleepy.
After Yan Qing left, Huo Beiting breathed a sigh of relief. When he got out of bed and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash his face, he noticed that there was an unhung phone under him.
Huo Beiting rubbed his eyebrows and let out a helpless sigh from his throat.
"Forget everything you just heard."
Huo Beiting gave up the idea of going to the bathroom to wash his face, and instead picked up his phone to half-threaten and half-bribe Cheng Zijue.
Cheng Zijue chuckled twice, and that laughter sounded rather mean no matter how you listened to it.
Cheng Zijue couldn't help but rub his excited little hands, as if he had discovered a shocking secret. He looked around with his mobile phone and whispered to Huo Beiting over there.
"Was that the girl you've been asking about? Oh my, it's been so long, and I finally see something! Bring her out so we can see her! We can recognize her!"
As Cheng Zijue spoke, his mind had already begun to automatically imagine that when Huo Beiting brought the unknown girl out, he would prepare a grand welcome ceremony, at least to leave a deep impression of himself in the girl's mind.
Huo Beiting didn't need to see Cheng Zijue's eyes. Just by listening to his mean words, he could completely imagine what weird things were going on in his mind.
"Pour out all the dirt in your head. She is different from other girls."
When Huo Beiting talked about Yan Qing, a hint of tenderness unconsciously appeared in his eyes. He slowly pursed his other hand, recalling the wonderful feeling when he just touched Yan Qing's body.
"Oh my! You're already protecting me? I haven't made any plans yet! Seriously, bring me out sometime so we can meet my sister-in-law! An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law."
Cheng Zijue paused and changed his words immediately when Huo Beiting was about to get angry.
"No, no, how can Big Brother's girlfriend be called an ugly wife? She should be a shy and beautiful girl. How can she be afraid of seeing a sloppy brother, right?"
Cheng Zijue chuckled twice as he spoke, not taking the words that slapped himself in the face seriously at all, as if hitting himself in the face had become a common occurrence for him.
"Let's talk about it later. When the right opportunity comes, I will naturally bring her to see you."
As he said that, Huo Beiting was about to hang up the phone. The company had been piled up with a lot of things in recent days, and Huo Beiting thought that he might have to work overtime tonight!
"Hey, brother, don't hang up yet! I just heard on the phone that my sister-in-law seems to be having a birthday soon. Brother Huo, don't you want to think about what kind of birthday gift to give her when the time comes? Girls value these things the most."
Cheng Zijue's words successfully made Huo Beiting stop what he was doing. He did not reply and waited for his next words leisurely.
Cheng Zijue felt temporarily relieved when he saw that the call was not hung up immediately. Without hesitation, he spoke out all his thoughts like a machine gun.
"Girls are very thoughtful. I just heard my sister-in-law say on the phone that she seems to have forgotten her birthday. But since you, Brother Huo, have already mentioned it, she will definitely keep your birthday gift in mind. If the gift you prepare is not satisfactory, she will definitely be dissatisfied!"
Huo Beiting stuck out his tongue and licked his back teeth, then secretly bit his lower lip.
To be honest, this was the first time he prepared a gift for a girl, and he had no idea what girls liked.
Especially for a carefree girl like Yan Qing, Huo Beiting felt that she might not like the pink and tender things that ordinary girls like, but he had no idea what it was.
"From what you said, you seem to understand girls' minds very well? Then what good ideas do you have?"
Huo Beiting coughed lightly as he spoke, trying hard to hide his embarrassment, but Cheng Zijue on the other end of the phone burst into laughter when he heard it.
This was the first time in all the years that Cheng Zijue had known Huo Beiting that he had seen him humbly asking him for help. In the past, he had always been the one to ask Huo Beiting for help, but today the relationship was finally reversed. Cheng Zijue felt like a serf who had been liberated and was singing.
"Of course. Don't you see I've been wandering around the world of women for so many years? I have plenty of experience! Especially when dealing with a girl like my sister-in-law who looks like a cross between a manly woman and a petite beauty!"
Huo Beiting didn't take Cheng Zijue's words seriously at first. He just wanted to try and see what ideas he had. However, his last sentence about Yan Qing's character successfully cheered Huo Beiting up.
"Don't talk nonsense. I don't have time to listen to your glorious history. Tell me what kind of gift she would like."
Huo Beiting stood up and went to the door to see if it was closed tightly. It was enough for Cheng Zijue to be the only one to know about this embarrassing thing of asking others for advice. There was no need to involve another person, especially Yan Qing.
"Then you have to tell me exactly what kind of person your sister-in-law is! You're asking me to analyze her for you in just a few words. Aren't you being too difficult?"
Cheng Zijue's eyes kept rolling around, trying to think of ways to get more information about his sister-in-law from Huo Beiting.
"She...she's a strong woman out there, but I wouldn't say she's completely strong. She also has a cheerful and amusing side, and that strong woman side is only directed at those who have offended her. At home, she's very gentle and considerate, and she never looks down on me because of my identity..."
Huo Beiting talked a lot and Cheng Zijue listened attentively. Neither of them noticed that they had been talking about what kind of person Yan Qing was for an hour.
The topic was finally interrupted by Cheng Zijue.
Cheng Zijue coughed twice, reminding Huo Beiting that it was almost enough.
"I have a rough idea of what kind of person my sister-in-law is. Women like this aren't usually the most thoughtful, but once you remind her of something concerning her, like her birthday this time, she'll take it very seriously. You could even say she'll be constantly thinking about what kind of gift you'll prepare for her. So, you absolutely shouldn't take this kind of woman lightly. When preparing a gift, it doesn't have to be something particularly expensive, but more importantly, it needs to be thoughtful..."
Cheng Zijue talked a lot, and Huo Beiting finally summed it up in one sentence.
You should prepare gifts with care, and it’s best if you make them yourself, and then add more companionship and warm words, and Yan Qing will be particularly touched.
