Promise You Lifelong Happiness - C9

After knowing that the time he had agreed upon with Ye Qingming was 5: 30 PM, Lin Qingrou started to unhurriedly organize the manuscripts.

She lifted her hand to her watch. It was now five fifteen.

I’m not busy. I’ll just watch for a while. she thought.

The second hand spun around and around on the watch, reminding Lin Qingrou that time was running out.

20 minutes later, Lin Qingrou finally finished looking through all the mail. She stretched lazily and fixed her makeup. After confirming that she was still tired from work and weak when she was injured, she left the company in satisfaction and took a taxi to the restaurant she had arranged.

Right now, Ye Qingming was sitting at the dining table, looking at his phone from time to time. Because before this, he had never waited so long for someone.

But the long wait did not make him angry or bored. On the contrary, he even wished she would come later.

For some reason, Ye Qingming was subconsciously afraid to see her. However, this fear was mixed with curiosity and expectation, so he could not help but avoid it. However, he was like a clumsy actor, unable to conceal the desire in his heart.

It was almost six o’clock when Lin finally arrived.

She held a stack of documents and a laptop in her hands. When she saw Ye Qingming, she hurried towards him.

“Sorry, the unit was really busy today, so I forgot to call you. I should have told you.” Lin Qingrou said apologetically.

Ye Qingming shook his head and smiled, “It’s okay, I didn’t wait too long.” “You’ve come at the perfect time. I’ve already ordered the dishes, so they should be ready by now.”

As he was speaking, the waiter had already placed all the dishes he had prepared onto the table.

Lin Qingrou, who had not eaten for most of the day, was really hungry. Surprised, she said, “Do you like braised lamb?”

Ye Qingming placed the chopsticks on the table for her and explained in pleasant surprise, “This is the signature dish of his family. Every time I come here, I have to eat it.” Originally, I wanted to order another dish of seafood, but I didn’t know what your taste was so I didn’t take the liberty to order it. ”

“Luckily you didn’t order any seafood. I’m allergic to seafood.”

Lin Qingrou explained with a smile as she looked at the chopsticks he had placed in front of her, saying thanks in embarrassment.

During this meeting, the two of them unknowingly chatted for a long time. It was as if the ice between them had melted, and their relationship was gradually getting hotter. It was no longer the first time that someone had secretly investigated, but rather, asked the question even though he already knew the answer.

Lin Qingrou knew that this was a good sign. Therefore, her attitude this time was especially humble and meek, as if she was playing another person. In the end, she couldn’t even tell if she was the one who carried the hatred, Lin Qingrou, or the other person who tried to get close to Ye Qingming, or Xing Ruonan who had disappeared from Ye Qingming’s world.

Then, what did Ye Qingming think of himself?

Lin Qingrou bit her chopsticks as she thought in her heart.

“What are you thinking about?” Ye Qingming suddenly asked.

Lin Qingrou snapped out of her daze, rubbing her face to control her emotions.

“Thinking about the first time we met.” “No,” she said.

Ye Qingming laughed, “I was too rude that time.”

“So you’re a friend of Liu Yuxi?” Ye Qingming asked curiously.

Looking at him, Lin Qingrou could not help but lower her head and smile, “Yes, and he is a good friend. Otherwise, I wouldn’t… “Go see you for her.”

Ye Qingming understood what was going on. He looked at Lin Qingrou unintentionally and was stunned.

Lin Qingrou’s heart sank as the image of Xing Ruonan appeared in her mind.

Lin Qingrou had watched Xing Ruonan’s every frown and smile a thousand times and practiced it a thousand times. All of her emotions were deeply engraved in Lin Qingrou’s mind. Similarly, all of Xing Ruonan’s expressions were branded into Ye Qingming’s heart.

Thus, at such a time, she did not intentionally interrupt Ye Qingming, nor did she avoid him. Instead, she focused on him.

However, even though Ye Qingming was still in a trance, he knew that Lin Man and Xing Ruonan were two different people.

Thus, after a while, he reacted and said embarrassedly, “I was distracted, sorry.”

Lin Qingrou shook her head, pretending not to understand and asked, “Did you remember something? I can see that your face isn’t looking too good. ”

“No, I just remembered an old friend.” Ye Qingming lowered his head and said.

Lin Qingrou leaned back in her chair. Looking at Ye Qingming’s unnatural expression, she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. So Xing Ruonan’s treatment of Ye Qingming was actually such a painful and unforgettable memory. For him, this was an advantage that he could take advantage of, and it was probably a puppet that he had to live under a mask.

After the two of them had dinner, Ye Qingming suggested walking along the river bank.

“Did the hospital find any more trouble with you today?” Lin Qingrou asked.

Ye Qingming nodded helplessly. However, how could someone as noble and noble as him be willing to be falsely accused like that?

Seeing this, Lin Qingrou said no more. She continued to look at the street lamps and pedestrians as she walked slowly. She held her bag in one hand and casually placed her other hand on the side. When she swung her arm, her arm would occasionally touch the bottom of Ye Qingming’s coat.

At this moment, the two were getting closer and closer, to the point where Lin Qingrou did not know what to say. She couldn’t help but feel discouraged. It was obviously such a good opportunity, so why did she make it so awkward?

Suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind by the river. Lin Qingrou clutched the document to her chest.

Ye Qingming looked at her and said, “The wind suddenly blew, let’s go back to the car.”

As he spoke, he walked up to Lin Qingrou and took her bag and stack of folders, placing them in his hands. Then, he took the initiative to pull Lin Qingrou’s hand towards the parking lot.

Lin Qingrou stared at their tightly clasped hands, stunned. She tried to struggle free several times, but Ye Qingming’s hands were too strong, so in the end, she could only helplessly follow behind.

“Can you let go now?” Lin Qingrou said snappily as she followed him to the other side of the road.

Ye Qingming opened the car door and motioned for her to get in.

Lin Qingrou rubbed her wrist as she looked at him. She couldn’t help but pursed her lips and raise her eyebrows, “Actually, you don’t have to give it to me. I can go back by myself later.”

Ye Qingming held onto the car door and could not help but smile.

He looked at his watch and said in a low voice, “I have to go back later to check on the operation plan. I’ll take you home now.”

As he spoke, he stroked Lin Qingrou’s hair.

“Be good and get in the car.” Ye Qingming said.

Lin Qingrou saw that he wanted to say something, but she hesitated, so she could only rearrange her hair with her hands before getting into the car.

She unnaturally touched her hair again, and a strange feeling that she had never felt before began to spread through her body.

However, Lin Qingrou suddenly had a bad premonition.
