Jing Bo Yuan lowers down his gaze and clutches her face with both of his hand. His eyes are bright.
He looks at him, like Ye Qing Xin’s question is an outrageous one.
Ye Qing Xin smiles at him.
This man perhaps doesn’t like a woman that nags about whether he loves her or not.
Ye Qing Xin raises her hand to tidy up her hair. She hides her disappointment and tries to shift the topic: “For tonight, thank you…..”
But he just hugs her tightly. He says to her earside: “Xin Xin, for something, you just need to feel it with your heart. Something that comes out from mouth, maybe not true.
Some people can only say it and you can use your ear to hear it. Some people’s love are put inside their heart. They put their love in their action, so you need to use your lifetime to feel and experience it.
Ye Qing Xin smiles and her eyes turns bright. She understands him.
She just thinks too much.
…… Zhou Qiao Qiao starts to cough again.
Ye Qing Xin’s face changes, she immediately runs over.
Zhou Qiao Qiao coughs up blood again, though it’s not a lot.
Ye Qing Xin takes out the towel form the bathroom out and wipes it.
Zhou Qiao Qiao is still unconscious, she doesn’t aware of Ye Qing Xin’s action.
The time she calms down, Ye Qing Xin’s face is pale. She is at complete loss.
She remembers the doctor’s words again to her.
After a while, Jing Bo Yuan comes over and hugs her.
After a while, Jing Bo Yuan’s phone rings. He doesn’t go out, he just answers.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know what is it, she can only hear: “….. Tomorrow arrange for them to come, it’s good to be fast….”
He hangs up and let her chest sticks close to his sturdy chest.
“No need to worry. There’re several expert of oncologist from Japan. I help you to ask them to come over. Tomorrow afternoon they will arrive in Jing City. That time they will check your mother.”
Ye Qing Xin is shocked, she hugs him and her tears fall down.
She says: “Thank you, Bo Yuan.”
She feels that with him, each of her suffering turns not be so challenging.
Jing Bo Yuan strokes her head.
They stay like that for a while. Then he calls again. Not more than ten minutes, a young nurse with white uniform comes inside the room.
The nurse says embarrassedly because she is intimidated by Jing Bo Yuan’s presence: “Mr Jing, Ms ye, I am Lin Zi Yi. The director asked me to come over to take care of Madame Zhou.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and answers politely: “Sorry to trouble you.”
The nurse peeks at Jing Bo Yuan then says to Ye Qing Xin: “This is my duty, I should do this.”
Jing Bo Yuan holds Ye Qing Xin’s hand, “There’s someone here to help you take care of your Ma. You go and wash your face first. Sleep early. Tomorrow there’ll be some people come over to check on your mother. You need to be strong.”
Ye Qing Xin notices the nurse’s glance toward Jing Bo Yuan. She smiles at him: “Then you should go back. It’s inconvenient for an adult man like you to say.”
Jing Bo Yuan smiles and strokes her hair. He just leaves.
She watches him leave, she feels something is wrong with him.
But she cannot make it out.
“Ms Ye, go and have a shower. I’ll look after her.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles at her and looks Zhou Qiao Qiao is sleeping so soundly. So she goes to the bathroom.
When she is in front of the bathroom door, her leg is twisted a bit. She feels the pain. But it’s lucky that it’s just hurt a bit.
Ye Qing Xin massages her uncle and suddenly she stops.
She remembers what’s wrong, Jing Bo Yuan’s ankle….
She doesn’t hesitate. She runs to the elevator and chases after him.
The elevator is going down, it just reaches eleventh floor, she is at eighteenth. So she just runs toward the stairs.
The time she arrives at the first floor. She is out of breath. The time she comes out from the staircase door. She notices that Jing Bo Yuan is standing in front of the lobby door.
She chases after him.
Finally she grabs Jing Bo Yuan’s sleeve.
Jing Bo Yuan turns his head and looks her. He frowns: “Are you going down?”
After a while, Ye Qing Xin finally can control her breath again. She doesn’t say anything and just kneels down. She lifts up his trouser leg and looks at his injured leg. It’s red and swollen.
She notices he is so calm and collected. She remembers when she just twists her ankle before, it feels so painful. But he manage to walk still full of charisma with this kind of pain.
Her voice is somewhat full of emotion: “Are you hurt?”
Jing Bo Yuan smiles: “You ran over so fast for asking me this?”
Ye Qing Xin feels somewhat angry looking at how calm and indifferent he is. “You are still laughing!”
Her tone is like a mature wife, who is scolding inexperienced husband.
Jing Bo Yuan pulls her up and holds her hand. “Not hurt.”
“But……” Ye Qing Xin doesn’t believe him, “Last night it’s not this swollen. You still said that it’s not hurt. It’s swollen now. Don’t try to show off, let’s see the doctor okay?”
Jing Bo Yuan: “…….”
Then Jing Bo Yuan is dragged by Ye Qing Xin to emergency room.
The doctor checks him and says: “The previous injury has not recover fully yet, it can be swollen for standing or walking too long. I’ll give a medicine for you to apply to it. For few days, it’s better to not too much strength on this one. If you need to walk, just use a walking stick.”
Walking stick………..
Ye Qing Xin imagines the fully-suited Jing Bo Yuan, will walk with the walking stick. She finds it so funny. She agrees with the doctor’s advice: “Em, I’ll let him use the walking stick.”
Ye Qing Xin let Jing Bo Yuan sit down on the resting area to wait for her. She pays and takes the medicine that the doctor prescribed.
Ye Qing Xin then goes back to the resting room, she sits down beside Jing Bo Yuan and shifts up his leg. She places his leg on her thigh and lifts up his trouser leg. She applies the medicine.
His leg is so heavy.
She feels that her leg is pressed hard.
Jing Bo Yuan watches her expression and movement when she applies his medicine.
Jing Bo Yuan looks at her gaze. He is very serene.
After ten minutes.
Ye Qing Xin stops and lifts down his trouser legs. She smiles at him: “You are done.”
Then she tidies the medicine and puts it back inside the plastic bag. She holds his hand and takes him back to the parking area.
Until she stuffs him inside the car, she feels so sweaty.
It’s Driver Lu who drives the car.
She instructs Driver Lu to be careful. Then she let them leave.
The time the car disappears from her gaze, her smile disappears too. She returns to the Zhou Qiao Qiao’s sick room.
Inside the car.
Jing Bo Yuan lowers the car window and lights up his cigarette. He keeps on thinking of Ye Qing Xin’s little serious face.
Driver Lu notices that this moment Mr Jing has a good mood. He is completely different from his normal face.
Suddenly he remembers the news from Lao Zhang this morning. He wants him to find a great moment to reveal to him. After all, she is his mother. This his mother comes home, he should know about it.
This time Driver Lu sighs.
There’s a lot of Jing family members, everyone tries to not do this. How can someone like him be so unfortunate.
After considering, Driver Lu says: “Mr Jing, next month it’ll be Old Madame He’s birthday….. I heard that …… yesterday Madame had returned…..”
He means Jing Bo Yuan’s mother, He Su E.
Jing Bo Yuan just replies lightly “Em.”
“…….” Driver Lu is startled. Just like that?
He is to calm. He remembers that fourteen years ago, after that thing, both mother and son are estranged……
“Driver Lu, focus on your driving.”
Driver Lu understands and doesn’t say anything else.
Ye Qing Xin returns to the room and goes to see her Ma again. She notices a trace of blood, she should cough up blood again.
She holds her hand and says: “Ma, don’t worry. Bo Yuan has helped to invite oncologists from Japan, they will give you examination. You’ll get better, Ma. Don’t be afraid….”
Zhou Qiao Qiao is still sleeping soundly.
“Ms. Ye, sleep first. I’ll be here watching her.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Thank you.”
She goes to take a bath.
This night, someone has a good sleep, but someone also has a continuous nightmare.
Zhou Qiao Qiao gets into a long deep dream.
She dreams about her childhood. The time she grew up with Tai Zheng Ting. She dreams about the time she met Han Qing Qing, how they become best friend because of having the same hobby. If she doesn’t fall in love with Han Qing Qing’s boyfriend, perhaps they will be best friend forever.
She remembers the day. Han Qing Qing was raped by the workshop director. She could help her that time by only pushing the door open and let her out. But she just closed the door and let her be raped. Because of that Han Qing Qing is forced to marry the workshop director. Zhou Qiao Qiao appeared in front of Ye Jun Dong and tried to get his heart. She was satisfied by marrying Ye Jun Dong. Because it’s been a long time, she thought that he will start to forget about Han Qing Qing and fall in love with her. But Ye Jun Dong is cold toward her, even for relationship between husband and wife, they only did not more than three times in a year.
She was so sad and Tai Zheng Ting found her. She didn’t refuse to meet him. She just shared her feeling to him. She was drank that time, the time she got up she felt something is wrong, but she didn’t think of Tai Zheng Ting did something wrong to her.
Then the dream progresses to the time Ye Jun Dong knew the truth.
After ten years that day, Han Qing Qing was tortured by that workshop director for almost ten years, she cannot endure it anymore. She wanted to end her life. But before she dead, she told everything to Ye Jun Dong.
Zhou Qiao Qiao remembers the day Ye Jun Dong grabbed her hair and smashed it to the wall. She felt that she will die.
Ye Jun Dong said to her: “Zhou Qiao Qiao! I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless! Killing you will make my hand dirty? You be so ruthless for get me? Now I want to divorce you! I don’t want to meet you again! I want you to be unable to get what you want forever!
The next day, Zhou Qiao Qiao opens her eyes.
