Chapter 16

 

Ye Shu Wei pulled Bei Er Duo to stand up. Under the dark sky, they were face to face with with the students that rushed in.

“You are not from our school.” The male student seemed to be impatient: “What are you doing in this balcony?”

“Chatting.” Ye Shu Wei said.

“This late night you guys go here to chat, who will believe it?” The male student said disdainfully, “Our school forbid strangers to tour around the school. Hurry up you guys go away.”

Ye Shu Wei seemed to be calm: “First all, you seem to have no authority to kick someone out. Besides depend on what you said, this late night there is no possibility someone would be here for chat, then what are you guys doing here? Are you discussing your homework?”

The male student was being suffocated for a while, narrowed his eyes: “Why you should ask the reason we are here. This is our school, not yours.”

“It’s true that this is your school. But it is obvious that you broke the school law.” Ye Shu Wei said, “You guys are not only skipping class, you also waste much effort to bring your girlfriend here. You attempt to do something to her. I could it is the colorful things.”

“you…” The male student was a bit angry.

The female student beside him pulled his sleeve: “You shut up first… They seem to look familar.”

Bei Er Duo’s heart was hiccuping for a while, she didn’t expect this to happen.

The female student leaned a step closer, and looked for a light to seriously identify them. Then she realized it: “You seem to be the guest of the love show that is the trending topic. The couple who have clear difference in height….”

She didn’t finish it. Bei Er Duo already be aware and held Ye Shu Wei’s arm. She said “Let’s go.” Then they moved quickly and passed them. They opened the door and ran downstaris.

It was until they ran over fifty meter from the school building, Bei Er Duo let Ye Shu Wei go. She exhaled: “Balcony is also not a secure place.”

Ye Shu Wei looked at the sky, then said: “Except hotel, it is hard to look for a place where there is no third-party.”

“I wouldn’t check in to a hotel room with you.” Bei Er Duo reminded him, “Hurry let’s go. If not there would be a bunch of students go out from their self-study. We would be recognized.”

Yet Ye Shu Wei seemed to ignore her reminder. He stood there and admired the night scene of the school garden.

“What are you thinking of? Let’s go.” Bei Er Duo was confused.

“Before those two who interrupted us before is a couple?” He asked.

“It’s is very obvious.”

“They are just being mature for a while.”

“Right, but it’s not really strange right?” It is common to date in the senior high school. Don’t tell me that you never see it when you were in high school.”

“It seemed that I never witness a boy and girl out.”

“Basically dating during senior high school is very secret. It progresses in private.” Bei Er Duo said, “It’s common that you couldn’t notice it. You originally is a kind of special one, you could choose shield yourself from those thing.”

Ye Shu Wei’s gaze fell on her: “Then have you ever progressed in private?”

Bei Er Duo shook her head: “No, during senior high school except studying, I waste my time to read comic book.”

“Have you ever being pursued by your fellow students?”

Bei Er Duo tried to recall, then nodded: “Yeah, it’s not only one. If I mention this, you would definitely think that I talk big. Actually during those time, my market price was very good. I am even the prettiest girl in the class.”

Ye Shu Wei seemed to be interested in this: “O? So you don’t really look the same as the past?”

“Don’t you be too cruel.” Bei Er Duo glared at him, “That time I was skinny, my skin was glowing tenfold more than now. My hair was longer, I could be counted as pretty woman.:

Saying this, she felt herself to be a bit embarrassed, hence she laughed at herself: “Of course, the glorious moment is already passed. A real man doesn’t boast about his past achievements (Idiom). Let’s not mention it. Not mention it again.”

Under the dark night, Ye Shu Wei’s dark eyes continued on gazing on her. Looking at his face, she asked: “What are you thinking of?”

“O, I suddenly noticed that dating during senior high school is not that boring as I expected .” He still watched her.

“…..” Couldn’t it be that he was provoked by her words?

“Let’s go.” He shifted his gaze.

They went back to the place before where they slipped in to slip out. Ye Shu Wei brushed the lower hem of his shirt, and raised his hand to take the leaves from Bei Er Duo’s head.

“Next time look for time to send me your photo during senior high school.” 

“Why?”

“I want to witness it with my own eyes, what is so called the past of prettiest girl.”

Bei Er Duo shrugged her shoulder: “Okay, but as the condition, you also need to send me your photo during senior high school.”

“Okay.”

Bei Er Duo was happy. Actually she had a little motives, she wanted to look at how he appeared with his uniform.

They got in the car, and took the opportunity before the students went out to leave.

In the car, Bei Er Duo recalled the moment at the balcony. Her train of thought gradually turned clear-headed. His words although was not direct, it was relatively indirect. It made people to be puzzled, but to analyze it word by word, it was not hard to conclude, that he accept Chief Yu’s suggestion.

Could it be Chief Yu give him double benefit in private? Bei Er Duo secretly thought, yet he didn’t seem to be shortage with money. Moreover, he didn’t owe him anything. Or perhaps, he invested on this project? After all, they are relatives. Behind the scene he should be hold some shares that because of profits, then he…”

“Do you understand what I said before?” Ye Shu Wei, who was driving his car, asked.

Bei Er Duo stopped her reflection, said: “If I’m not wrong, you support Chief Yu’s intention?”

“Right.” Yu Sheng looked for him, and didn’t say anything. He only said, “Do you want some chances to be in touch with Bei Er Duo in close range?”

“Because Chief Yu give you some benefits?” She started to probe.”

“It could be said like that.” He admitted.

Indeed it was like that, Bei Er Duo thought she guessed right. He and Chief Yu definitely are closely related in the benefit, so he would agree to it.

Outside of the car the light was started to dim, the warmth yellow light shone on Bei Er Duo’s face, she remained calm and collected but inside her heart she was thinking seriously and consider about this thing pros and cons.

Now, he is willing to act with her as fake couple. In front of the public attention, although it was because of Chief Yu, but he agreed it. More or less it could show that her existence is not being rejected by him. It was her only “reasonable and fair” reason to continue to meet him, and has chance to get close to him.

It is exactly as Tang Li said, since she has feeling to him, then now it is the chance.

If between them there is no a layer of relationship, according to his temper, he even would be lazy to talk to her.

It is her first time to like someone, she was not skillful in pursuing man. She even didn’t know how to invite him to watch movie.

In fact, except going with this shortcut, she didn’t have any way to approach close to him.

“What is your thinking?” Noticing at how long she pondered, he asked.

“If it is like this, so in this very long period of time, you couldn’t consider to have relationship with another woman.” Bei Er Duo confirmed, “Do you have problem with it?”

Ye Shu Wei didn’t even raise his eyes: “Don’t I chat with you?”

Hearing his directness and answer, Bei Er Duo blinked her eyes, he indeed is fast in entering this play. He does things in a strictly businesslike manner, he put everything directly to the subject.

“If your Pa Ma ask, you also wouldn’t tell them the truth?”

“My parents wouldn’t ask too much about my private life.” Ye Shu Wei said, “But if they ask, I would tell them the truth.”

“Then I agree.” She said ti.

His tone was serious: “Since you agree to this, then you need to promise to remember. Starting from now you couldn’t in contact with opposite sex besides me.”

“Of course.” She nodded, “Since we are in collaboration, then I would be professional to maintain my personal integrity.”

“Professional to maintain personal integrity?” He repeated, then used the casual tone to correct her: “My point is not only our collaboration, but you also couldn’t secretly in touch with other man  including if you are thinking about it inside your heart.”

“…” His standard indeed is very severe.

“Do you understand?”

“…. I will use my greatest extent.” After all, our mind sometimes wouldn’t be easy to control. When she saw west movie, she would fantasize for a while the muscle of the uncle.

“Use your greatest extent?” Just in time it was red traffic light. He stopped the car, and inclined his head to ask her. He seemed to be calm, yet he was sharp.

Bei Er Duo pointed at the giant billboard outside the car, it was a model with a extremely miniskirt. She was showing her long beautiful legs, and smiling sweetly. She explained: “Just like that a man would see it and think about those. I am very understanding of it. Because it is normal, so I htink occasionally be absent-minded in between lovers could be permitted.”

Ye Shu Wei passed by Bei Er Duo and looked at the billboard, it seemed to see a bonsai, instantly he was disinterested, and commented: “It is very superficial.”

“Don’t you feel that her legs is long and very straight, it is beautiful right?” As a woman, even Bei Er Duo admired her.

“No.” Ye Shu Wei looked straight front, “It seem to be the same as your legs.”

Bei Er Duo was startled, and lowered her head to see her both legs. Didn’t know whether he was mocking her or not? The one on the billboard should have ten meters longer legs than her….

“The shape of her face is very beautiful.”

“Her chin is too pointy, lack of sense of beauty.” His attitude seemed to be indifferent: “It is might as well as you.”

Bei Er Duo’s unconsciously extended her hand to touch her own chin. So it turned out that Ye Shu Wei prefer the smooth and round chin.

The red light turned to the green. The car started to move. Ye Shu Wei said: “Bei Er Duo, I would not be absent-minded because of those, so you also should be loyal with me with your thinking.”

Bei Er Duo: “……”

Arriving home, Bei Er Duo called with Tang Li and told her her decision.

“I know from the start that you wouldn’t reject it.” Tang Li laughed deceitfully, “Don’t you worry, I will put greatest effort to let you able to advantage of him.”

Her laughter made Bei Er Duo’s body to be full of goose bumps: “What would the show’s content be?”

“Take a couple portrait, let him carry and hug you. Feed you something to eat, rubbing head together, whispering, something like those.”

“Don’t you be too artificial. Couldn’t it be more natural? I feel it is better to take step by step…”

“Don’t said that your heart couldn’t bear it.” Tang Li cut her off, “Since you want to fire somebody, then of course it need to be more authentic. This is normal between couples okay? How could you pursue him with this little guts? He is an unique guy, if you won’t do awesome thing, and just small steps, at last it would be nothing.”

Bei Er Duo protested: “You seem to be experience? You also have been lusted after Chief Yu for this long, why don’t you profess your love?”

Tang Li sighed: “What do you know. I don’t profess because of his identity. He wouldn’t agree to office love relationship.”

“Only because of that?”

“It is also. I had seen his past girlfriend photo. She is one meter seventy two, her hair is long. She is so pretty and exceptionally good. I wouldn’t be a match for her.”

“Love is not about which is one better?”

“But looking at his previous one, we could conclude his preference.” Tang Li said: “I am too far from his type.”

Bei Er Duo was silent for a while, and said: “Actually it is not a sure thing, I don’t what I should say. Anyway I notice that he cares about you.”

“He is always be like that with everyone.” Tang Li said, “He is different with Ye Shu Wei, who is always cold toward everyone.”

“Really?”

“The main point is Ye Shu Wei is a like a piece of blank white paper and he could let you to paint on it.” Tang Li said, then said sincerely: “Honestly, it is worthy to like him.”

Bei Er Duo was confused and just “em”.

“Okay, I would tell you after I know more. Remember next week to come to our company to sign the contract.” Tang LI said, “I just arrived home and haven’t eat anything. I’m really hungry. I will hang up first.”

Tang Li hung up and went to the kitchen to look for something on the fridge. When she was preparing soup, her door bell rang.

She accepted the intercom, it was Yu Sheng.

“Before I had dinner with the client, I helped to bring you a soup.” Yu Sheng expressed his reason to come.

Tang Li opened the door.

Honestly, three days after she moved here, she just knew that the low profile Chief Yu also lived on the opposite of her.

So implication they were only separated with several hundred meters from each other.

Yu Sheng came up and passed the soup for her, he asked her to drink it.

Tang Li invited him inside and prepared a tea for him. Then with his inspection, she drank the soup.

They chatted and mentioned the subject between Ye Shu Wei and Bei Er Duo.

Tang Li was loyal to her friend, without Bei Er Duo’s permission, she didn’t dare to leak out Bei Er Duo’s feeling for Ye Shu Wei. She just expressed reservedly that Bei Er Duo quite appreciate being with Ye Shu Wei.”

“A lot of woman appreciate Ye Shu Wei,” Yu Sheng said, “It’s just they all flinched.”

Tang Li nodded: “Yeah, someone with his appearance, body, exceptionally good and bookworm, it is a type of ideal man for woman. But he looks cool and hard to approach.”

Even Bei Er Duo who never likes man, could be emotionally move and be interested in Ye Shu Wei. Bei Er Duo even thought up every possible method to get close to him.

Yu Sheng smiled, but slowly release the cigarette box on his hand. He asked warmly to Tang Li: “Then is he your type?”

The soup inside Tang Li’s mouth almost sprayed out: “Chief You, why do you ask this question?”

Chief Yu passed the tissue to her, and advised her friendly: “Indeed, Ye Shu Wei has a hundred of qualifications, he has charm, but he couldn’t be sure a suitable one for a boyfriend.”

“Why?” Tang Li wiped her mouth.

“Since little kid, he likes to being alone. He would lock himself inside the room to read book, play games, he couldn’t really respond to people. If you be his girlfriend then you would be possibly being treated coldly by him.”

“Really?”

“Right, moreover I said it last time. He likes to research about animal sample more than research about woman.” Yu Sheng warned, “He doesn’t know what majority woman like to do. Of course he wouldn’t be the expert in romantic things.”

“Em, then what’s more?”

“He is expert in cooking, he also could do house chores, could care about little pet. He is more than even more wise and kind woman.”

“This seems to be true.”

“He also an extreme obsession with cleanliness. If there is a day that his girlfriend doesn’t wash her hair, it is possibly couldn’t be happen.” Yu Sheng smiled. “He is very self-discipline. During the working days he would wake up early. If you happen to be dawdle in bed then possibly you would be criticized by him.”

For this point, Tang Li agreed because she likes to dawdle in bed. She usually a bit late on going to the work. Luckily Chief Yu always be tolerant to her, he never cut her salary. 

“To conclude, living together with Ye Shu Wei is not really an easy thing.”

“Overall, he is outstanding, a rare talent. I also really admire him when I was little kid. I regard him as my goal.” Yu Sheng said and drank his tea.” He seemed to act gracefully after emphasized his uncle. He resumed his demeanor. “It is just a pity nobody is perfect. Living with someone like that would be a pressure.”

Tang Li frowned.

“You seem to be worried.” Yu Sheng said in warm voice, yet it brought a dangerous tone.

“No.” She shook her head.

She didn’t worry about Ye Shu Wei, she just thought of Bei Er Duo. She worried that her friend would be pressured.
