Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!

Even though she tried to hide it, Xu Qingzhi could still tell.

They shared the same pride.

Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips and said, "Actually, most people are envious of you. Other than everything you've had since you were born, you know what you want and can fight for it boldly. Moreover, you've succeeded. Compared to never having it, at least you've had it… You're right. Let's think about the future later."

Ye Qingqiu turned her head and looked at her for a few seconds. The corners of her lips curled up slightly and her smile changed.

"Li Tingshen and I are indeed a little unhappy. I came here to relax and meet you today because I really want to chat with you. But from the looks of it, you seem to be more troubled than me."

Xu Qingzhi turned her head and said, "This afternoon…" The moment she said that, she gave herself a definite answer. She paused and asked," Why me? "

Ye Qingqiu thought for a while and shook her head. "I don't know, but I know very well that not everyone can do it."

Xu Qingzhi raised an eyebrow.

Yin Ruijue pressed the horn.

Xu Qingzhi turned to look at Chi Yaoyao and saw Xu Wenxuan walking out of the hotel lobby.

"We'll get going first," she said and pointed to the back.

Ye Qingqiu glanced at it and nodded.

Xu Wenxuan walked over and said with a smile, "Have you been to the night market? There's a small resort about ten minutes ahead. It's an entire street. Do you want to take a look?"

"I've never shopped before," Ye Qingqiu shook her head and said honestly.

"Do you want to go shopping?"

Xu Wenxuan hadn't arranged for dinner yet. She thought that going there should be his plan.

She nodded and replied, "Okay."

It was dusk.

The stalls had been set up long ago and there were many people. Almost everyone was holding food boxes and chatting as they ate.

Barbecue, deep-frying, frying, baking, and various other snacks. The smell of smoke and fire was strong, and all kinds of smells mixed together. There were also people coming and going, making Ye Qingqiu feel uncomfortable.

Xu Wenxuan, who had disappeared for a while, returned with two small boxes. He handed one to her.

Ye Qingqiu took it. She remembered seeing many people holding this.

"I think this one is very popular. Try it."

Ye Qingqiu had never seen such a thing before. She was curious, conflicted, and eager to try.

Xu Wenxuan noticed the look of confusion on her face and his heart skipped a beat. He took a step back and distanced himself from her.

In the end, Ye Qingqiu picked up her fork and took a bite. Xu Wenxuan kept looking at her expression.

"How… is it?"

Ye Qingqiu paused for a while. "…It's alright."

With that, she took another bite.

Ye Qingqiu's answer disappointed Xu Wenxuan.

However, his mood improved when he saw her taking a second bite.

He had observed her eating. She would never take a second bite of something she didn't like.

Xu Wenxuan led Ye Qingqiu to the food street. He bought almost all the famous snacks.

At first, Ye Qingqiu was a little resistant, but later on, she let go completely.

She would eat whatever Xu Wenxuan gave her. Sometimes, she would even take the initiative to buy it.

Of course, there were also things that didn't suit his taste. After taking a bite, he threw it back to Xu Wenxuan.

Xu Wenxuan gave it a try and took a few more bites. If it didn't suit his taste, he would throw it away.

Ye Qingqiu seemed to have opened the door to a new world. After eating all the way, her feet were tired and she couldn't see the end of the street.

The sky had already darkened. The two of them walked and stopped. Along the way, they went to a few famous restaurants. In the end, they couldn't walk anymore and decided to leave.

This was already two hours later.

Xu Wenxuan found two yellow cars in the alley and pulled them to the entrance.

Ye Qingqiu still had a piece of fried chicken in her hand. Compared to before, she was much happier and livelier now.

"I did a lot of things that I've never done before today. I'm very happy. Thank you."

Ye Qingqiu placed the photo in her pocket.

Xu Wenxuan smiled and said, "At first, I was worried that you wouldn't like it. It's fine as long as you're happy. Actually, this is only a small part. The world is huge and there are many things that you haven't seen before."

Ye Qingqiu lowered her head and took a bite of the chicken.

She lowered her eyes and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

"Indeed."

*

When they reached the base, it was past eight in the evening.

The temperature difference between day and night in the suburbs was relatively large, and the temperature had already dropped.

Almost everyone who came with them had played for a while. When they saw that they were late, their expressions were ambiguous.

Yin Ruijue's patience was running out.

She regretted bringing the two women to such a place. She had waited so long just to catch a glimpse of them.

When Ye Qingqiu arrived, she was holding half a bag of fried chicken.

Yin Ruijue stood up and snatched the fried chicken from her hand. "Yes, it tastes good… Where did you buy it? Why didn't you buy more?"

Ye Qingqiu had a stomach full of food. Since it was leftovers, she didn't mind and said wickedly,

"Don't you know? There's a resort ahead. The entire street of the night market is filled with delicious food. What's this?"

Yin Ruijue suddenly felt that the piece of chicken in his mouth wasn't that fragrant anymore.

"What did you say? Night market? Is it… the rumored night market?"

Seeing the yearning look on his face, Ye Qingqiu took out her phone and showed Yin Ruijue the photos she had taken at the night market.

On the endless street, there were all kinds of food stalls on both sides. Some of them were selfies taken by Ye Qingqiu.

"Damn!"

Yin Ruijue threw the phone at Ye Qingqiu angrily. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Who knows if you don't know?"

Yin Ruijue stood up with the bag of fried chicken. "No, I want to take a look now."

Chi Yaoyao jumped up immediately. "I want to go too!"

"Let's go!"

Yin Ruijue brought Chi Yaoyao and she pulled Xu Qingzhi.

Xu Wenxuan brought Ye Qingqiu to a quiet place with a good view.

Ye Qingqiu sat on a wooden bench and watched as Xu Wenxuan set up a camera in front of her.

"Student Ye, can you come over?"

Xu Wenxuan suddenly turned his head and called her. Ye Qingqiu stood up and walked over.

Xu Wenxuan smiled at her. "Student Ye…"

"Just call me by my name." Ye Qingqiu suddenly interrupted him. "I have a name and it's nice."

Xu Wenxuan was stunned. "Qingqiu… is indeed a beautiful name."

Ye Qingqiu smiled faintly and walked to the camera. "Where are you standing? Is this okay?"

Xu Wenxuan came back to his senses and bent down to look at the camera. "You can take two more steps back… Okay, here…"

*

This was the first time Yin Ruijue had seen the legendary night market and he was indeed a little excited. Chi Yaoyao was even more excited. She instructed Yin Ruijue to buy food while she took photos and videos with her phone.

One after another.

Yin Ruijue was also very excited the entire time, but his combat power was only so-so. It had only been an hour since he left, but he had brought back a lot of things.

Yin Ruijue was so tired that he collapsed onto a chair.

"This is f*cking more tiring than shopping with a woman."

Not only did she have to buy it, but she also had to queue up to buy it.

The women only cared about eating and ignored him.

They were the only ones who ignored Yin Ruijue. In fact, his appearance had attracted the attention of too many girls.

He was handsome, rich, and playful. Girls liked him.

A few girls gathered to invite Xu Wenxuan and Yin Ruijue to have a gathering after they were done admiring the flowers.

Xu Wenxuan glanced at Ye Qingqiu but didn't agree.

Yin Ruijue leaned against the bench with his arm on the armrest. He lazily glanced at the girls around him and agreed with a smile.

*

At one o'clock in the morning, there were many people around, but there was no sound. All of them were yawning. Occasionally, they would speak softly with obvious boredom and sleepiness.

The temperature dropped and Ye Qingqiu was wearing thin clothes. She was curled up on the bench and her face looked sickly.

When Xu Wenxuan, who had been in front of the camera, returned, he draped his jacket over her and asked in a low voice,

"You don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"

She was indeed cold and did not refuse. She wrapped her clothes tightly and shook her head. She asked in a low voice,

"I'm fine. I'm a little cold. How is it? Is it soon?"

"Soon, we might have to wait a while. Can you do it? Why don't I send you back to the hotel first…"

Ye Qingqiu shook her head again. She stood up and walked to the camera that Xu Wenxuan had set up. She bent down to take a look.

"Don't forget to record it… This has to be kept for the rest of your life to be worthy of waiting so long tonight…"

"Yes, this is the only time."

Yin Ruijue had long fallen asleep out of boredom. When Xu Qingzhi woke him up, he took off his jacket and covered Chi Yaoyao, who was sleeping in her arms.

Without his jacket, Yin Ruijue was no longer sleepy. He scrolled through his WeChat Moments in boredom.

Seeing Chi Yaoyao's post, she clicked her tongue and took a photo. The lighting wasn't good and the quality of the photo was blurry.

Without doing anything, he posted on his WeChat Moments with a caption—

[I'll never come here again.]

After another hour, someone finally shouted, "It's here, it's open!"

Instantly, everyone started moving towards the flower field.

Yin Ruijue jumped up. It wasn't that he was anxious to see such a large-scale flash in the pan, but he was anxious to finish reading it. He wanted to go through the procedures and get lost quickly.

Under the lights, the petals of the epiphyllum flowers bloomed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The huge screen beside them also broadcasted the entire process of the epiphyllum flowers blooming.

It was absolutely shocking.

Especially the process of blooming.

The flowers bloomed silently, but there was a sound.

There were exclamations all around.

Ye Qingqiu suddenly felt that this was quite interesting.

After sitting in the car for so long, it was hot, cold, and sleepy. It was worth it to see this scene.

After all, this was his goal from the start and he had achieved it.

There was a beginning and an end.

*

After the crowd dispersed, Ye Qingqiu and the rest left.

Yin Ruijue went to get the car while Xu Wenxuan called the chauffeur.

Ye Qingqiu walked with Xu Qingzhi at a slow pace. Ye Qingqiu turned to look at her from time to time.

The streetlights on both sides of the road were very bright, and the light shone on everyone's faces.

After seeing Ye Qingqiu for the third time, Xu Qingzhi stopped in her tracks. Just as she took two steps towards her, Ye Qingqiu suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Then, she looked up and smiled at her. She reached out to cover her stomach, her face terrifyingly pale.

"Although it's disappointing, I'm sorry, I…"

Before she could finish speaking, her body went limp.

Xu Qingzhi was shocked and wanted to hug her, but she was caught off guard and was brought to the ground by Ye Qingqiu…

Everyone exclaimed in surprise. When Xu Wenxuan heard the commotion, he turned around and rushed over.

Just as he bent down to carry Ye Qingqiu, another powerful force grabbed his shoulder and threw him to the side…
