Chapter 565: He Wanted To Say Sweet Nothings To Her And Date
Looking at the smile on her small, exquisite face, Yin Muchen froze entirely. He hadn’t seen such a bright smile on her face for an extremely long time.
Ever since she came back, it was her first time smiling at him like that.
Yin Muchen looked at her as he fell into a daze.
It was only when Yin Shuiling looked at the man’s dark eyes that she saw her bright smile inside. It felt as if a bucket of cold water was dumped on her head and drenched her thoroughly. She put both hands on his broad shoulders as she pushed him away from her.
Yin Muchen took a few steps back as she leaped down from the vanity table.
Her face was a little pale, and it was even more hot. She bent over to tug down the stockings that were hanging off her thighs before standing up straight. She lifted her heels as she dashed for the door.
After stomping down the stairs, Yin Shuiling opened the villa doors and dashed out.
“Ay, Miss Yin…” Aunty chased after her as she called out. She looked on as Yin Shuiling boarded Uncle Shu’s car, and the car flew off into the distance. She was puzzled. What was wrong with Miss Yin? Why was she in such a hurry when she ran away?
At this moment, the sound of footsteps rang out from the staircase, and Yin Muchen went down the stairs.
“Sir, what is wrong with Miss Yin? I asked her to eat breakfast, and she ran off and did not even turn her head back.”
Yin Muchen had a look outside before walking towards the dining room. He sat in the chair and took a sip of his milk. He was elegant as he ate his breakfast.
Aunty was puzzled, and she stepped forward to observe the expression on the man’s face. She only saw that his handsome features were steeped in gentleness, and there seemed to be a gentle smile hanging on the corners of his lips.
Aunty clapped her hands together as she happily asked, “Sir, did you reconcile with Miss Yin? I thought Miss Yin looked fearful and shy at the same time. Sir, this is a good sign. It means that Miss Yin’s heart has started to melt. With what happened three years ago, she probably will not accept you so quickly, but as long you put in effort, Miss Yin will definitely accept you.”
Yin Muchen listened intently before he nodded his head forcefully. “Okay!”
He would work hard.
Because she smiled at him.
In school
Yin Shuiling was in the lecture hall to attend her political science lecture with Ning Qing seated beside her.
“Shuiling, tell me about what went down last night. What did you do with Older Brother Yin? Your stomach hurt. Did he hug you? Did he…”
“Aiya, Ning Qing, I realize that you are so interested in gossip lately. It seems like Young Master Lu does not pamper you enough; look at how free you are.”
Ning Qing was serious as she looked at Yin Shuiling before she smiled and said, “Shuiling, you are anxious.”
“Who is anxious? I am only…” Yin Shuiling did not know how to word it.
“Shuiling, I know what you are thinking about. The pain that Older Brother Yin caused you to feel was too heavy. The Yin family was destroyed entirely, and together with the child in your belly, these things make you unable to forgive him, but you still like him. This is the man who has invaded into your life ever since you were 8 years old. You still love him as you once did.”
Yin Shuiling protested immediately. “No! I don’t love him anymore.”
“Shuiling, whether you love him or not, you should listen to your heart. Don’t fool yourself and others anymore! Shuiling, actually I think that both you and Older Brother Yin are pretty good like this. He is not married, just like you. Everything is still in time. The pain in the past, let time do the healing for you. You two should start over afresh, and if you love one another, you two should continue. If not, you can break up then.”
Yin Shuiling listened on in a blur; could she do that?
With what he’s done to the Yin family, she really could not forgive him. Her mother still periodically appears in her dreams, her father is still in jail, and she is unable to betray the guilty feeling and the gut wrenching pain to be together with him.
He treated her very very badly.
But what was she going to do? This morning, when she realized that she was together with him, she was still…very happy. Her heart was still beating for him, just like in the past.
Or maybe, she really still loved him.
Yin Shuiling was in a blur when the screen of her phone lit up. Yin Muchen was calling her.
She hesitated for a few seconds, before pressing the key to answer the call.
“Hello, Shuiling…” The man’s deep, charming voice slowly came over from the other end.
Yin Shuiling’s long, thick eyelashes quietly dropped. “Hmm…” She hummed out.
“Shuiling, I will come and pick you up after school today. Aunty has taken a day of leave. There won’t be anyone in the villa that can prepare our dinner; should we go out for dinner tonight?”
“Oh.”
After she replied to him, they were silent as if there was nothing else to chat about anymore. He did not say anything. Yin Shuiling bit her lower lip as she said, “If there is nothing else, I will be hanging up.”
“Shuiling….” The man on the other end quickly said, “Shuiling, I already miss you.”
Hearing the man’s deep and gentle tone as he said the words, Shuiling, I already miss you, a smile slowly appeared on the corners of Yin Shuiling’s lips. She did not say anything, and she hung up.
She just hung up, and Ning Qing perched her small head on her shoulders. Ning Qing covered her mouth as she laughed. “Shuiling, who called you? Look at how sweet you are right now.”
“Who is sweet?”
Ning Qing took out a small mirror from her bag as she said, “Look at your face.”
Yin Shuiling had a glance. The smooth surface of the mirror had a small and attractive face on it, and the corners of the lips of the small face were already curled upwards.
Yin Shuiling pushed the mirror away as she turned around to leave. “I am not talking to you anymore.”
Ning Qing broke out in immense laughter from behind her. “Haha!”
SK Financial
Hu Ya took some documents and placed them on the desk. “President, this document requires your signature.”
“Okay.” Yin Muchen took the fountain pen and swiftly signed as he said “Help me book a hotel. I want to have a candlelight dinner tonight.”
“Yes, sir!” Hu Ya was professional as he replied Yin Muchen before he froze for a moment, “…Ah? Candlelight dinner?”
Yin Muchen had a glance at his wrist watch. It was about time for dismissal. He stood up and grabbed his suit jacket from the sofa as he headed out. “You did not hear it wrong. Just follow my instructions and do it.”
Yin Muchen walked out of the door.
Hu Ya froze for a few seconds before regaining his senses. President was going to enjoy a candlelight dinner?
He did not have to think about it; he must be going to meet that girl.
Hu Ya felt that this was going in the right direction. President was behaving very oddly today. These three years, President was always cold and icy. If there was a subordinate that made a mistake in their work, he would throw a huge tantrum, but during the morning meeting today, there was a department manager that reported a wrong figure, and President was actually warm as he patted the person’s shoulder and said — there is still some room for improvement…
President was in an extremely good mood today. His features were soft and gentle, and it was obvious that he was basking in happiness.
It turned out that this was all because of that girl.
Has President already reconciled with that girl?
The Rolls Royce cruised down the street, and Yin Muchen headed in the direction of S University.
As he though about his imminent meeting with Yin Shuiling, a pure and gentle smile appeared on Yin Muchen’s face. He at himself through the rearview mirror before he stretched his hand out to style his hair.
Today, he intentionally gave Aunty a break. He wanted to enjoy a candlelight dinner with her today before gifting her roses and holding her hand as they went shopping. Before hugging her inside the room, and kissing her…
He was very nervous and excited. The battles that he’d gone through over the years in the corporate world, he had never had this kind of emotion before. He was already a 31 year old man but was still so fidgety.
He wanted to give her a proper…romance.
Although he had women back in the past, he really has not dated anyone before, and now, he wanted to say sweet nothings to her and date her. A man his age, he was already old enough. This was his first time in a relationship, and others would laugh at him if they knew about it.
She was 10 years younger than him, and in the future, he wanted to give her the best.
Yin Muchen was contemplating when a ringtone suddenly rang. He received a call.
He had a look at the caller ID; it was his mother.
Yin Muchen pressed the answer key quickly to take the call. “Hello, Mum…”
“Hello, Ah Chen…” Liu Wanxin’s voice came over from the other end, “Ah Chen, Mum prepared an entire table of dishes today, are you done with work already? Come to Mum’s place and accompany Mum to have dinner then.”
Yin Muchen froze, before saying, “Mum, I don’t have time tonight. I have a date with someone.”
“Who do you have a date with? Could the person that you asked out be more important than your mother?” Liu Wanxin sighed inside her heart. “Ah Chen, it has almost been two months since you came home to accompany Mum to have a meal already. What have you been up to lately? Mum knows that you despise Mum now. Mum’s eyes are blind, and my legs are disabled. I can only spend the entire day inside the villa. My only hope is that you can come and visit Mum frequently. Have I turned into your burden already, I…cough cough…”
Liu Wanxin started to cough fervently.
“Mum, whats wrong with you?”
Xiao Qing’s frantic voice rang out from the other end as she said, “Godmum, Godmum… Someone come over! Take the medicine that the doctor prescribed…”
The medicine that the doctor prescribed?
Yin Muchen listened on as he raised his eyebrows up quickly. Ever since Yin Shuiling came back from England, all of his attention was fixed her, and it really seemed as if he did not go back even once to accompany his mother.”
When did mother go to see the doctor. What medicine was she taking. He did not know anything about it.
“Mum, don’t be agitated… Okay, I will postpone my appointment tonight. I will come back home to accompany you.”
Liu Wanxin stopped coughing, but her voice seemed to be listless and very frail, “Okay, Ah Chen, Mum will wait for you.”
After hanging up, Yin Muchen pursed his thin lips together, before he dialled Yin Shuiling’s phone number.
At this moment, Yin Shuiling was already dismissed from school, she stood at the main gates of school as she waited for him to come and pick her up.
Her phone rang, and she took her phone out from her bag to have a look. When she had a clear look at his number, she curled the corners of her lips up plainly before answering his call, “Hello…”
“Hello, Shuiling, there is an emergency in the office. I am unable to leave… I might need to stay overtime in the company. So the date tonight can only be cancelled right now…”
The smile on the corners of Yin Shuiling’s lips was slowly withdrawn.
Yin Muchen noticed that she was not saying anything and continued, “Shuiling, sorry, let us go on a date tomorrow. There are still many more chances… I will ask Uncle Tu to go and pick you up…”
“There is no need for that.” Yin Shuiling tried hard to tug at the corners of her lips up as she said, “I will call a cab and go home. It will be very quick… You don’t have to worry about me. You should get busy with the matters in your company…”
“Okay.” Yin Muchen could only nod his head and say, “We will meet at night… I will come back earlier tonight…”
Yin Shuiling did not say anything before she hung up.
She put her phone in her pocket. Yin Shuiling flagged a cab by the side of the road, boarded the taxi, and returned to the villa.
Clear River Bend Villa
The helpers opened the main doors of the villa, and Yin Muchen walked inside.
Liu Wanxin sat down on the wheelchair. Xiao Qing was standing by her side as she fed her water. The three years did not make Liu Wanxin age much, but her face was pale and looked sickly.
