Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Bo Qi heard Qin Siyu’s honest words, he was silent for a long time. Just as she had said, he was against marriage. No matter how much he liked Qin Siyu and how satisfied he was with her, he had never thought about marrying her. He could not give her what she wanted so it was natural for her to leave. No one would be so foolish to stay knowing they would not be able to get what they wanted.
For this reason, Bo Qi did not stop Qin Siyu as she unlocked the door and got out of the car. However, his heart was filled with anxiety, unwillingness, and helplessness.
Qin Siyu was quite carefree compared to Bo Qi. She got out of the car and walked toward the elevator without looking back at all. After all, she had already experienced the pain when they separated. Now, the pain in her heart was only like a prick from a needle. It was not unbearable. As long as that idiot Bo Qi did not pester her, she believed she would be able to find her next love.
…
When Qin Siyu returned to the shop, she raised an eyebrow when she saw Fu Jianchen sitting in her shop. Why were men so bothersome? She felt like she could not even have a moment of peace. After putting out the cigarette, she entered the shop.
!!
When the windchime rang, Fu Jianchen reacted first. He quickly tore off the page from the book.
Qin Siyu looked at him and asked, “Why are you tearing a page of my comment book?”
Fu Jianchen quickly stuffed the piece of paper in his pocket before he cleared his throat and said, “I… I was sketching… It’s nothing.”
Qin Siyu’s eyes flashed with suspicion, but she did not question him. She only asked, “What are you doing here?”
“Well…” Fu Jianchen felt guilty and did not know how to answer for a moment.
Xu Youyou looked up at this moment and explained, “He said he wanted to borrow a bucket of water from you.”
Fu Jianchen nodded. “That’s right! My shop ran out of water so I wanted to borrow a bucket of water from you!”
Xu Youyou believed Fu Jianchen’s flimsy excuse, but Qin Siyu naturally did not. Nonetheless, she did not expose him. “Follow me.”
Fu Jianchen followed Qin Siyu to the storeroom before he carried a bucket of water out and left.
Qin Siyu washed her hands before she walked out of the storeroom. As she dried her hands, she asked, “Did Fu Jianchen say anything to you?”
“No,” Xu Youyou said with clear eyes, “He just urged me to paint for him.”
Qin Siyu nodded and looked at the time. It was almost six in the evening. It was already getting dark, but it was still bright as day in the mall.
“How’s the painting coming along? Are you hungry? Why don’t we eat first? You can finish the painting later,” Qin Siyu said. She did not dare to starve Xu Youyou lest Mo Shenbai came to settle the score with her later.
Xu Youyou was indeed hungry, “There are still a few details I need to add, but let’s eat. I’ll finish the painting at home. After I’m done, I’ll frame it before sending it to you.”
Qin Siyu nodded in agreement before she asked for the price.
Xu Youyou quickly shook her head. “It’s free. I’m already very happy that you like my painting.”
Qin Siyu saw that Xu Youyou was determined not to accept any payment from her so she thought about it for a while before she said, “Very well! Then, pick a bottle of perfume, pick a few! You can pick any one you like!”
“No need…”
Xu Youyou felt like being able to paint helped her hone her skills anyway.
“If you don’t agree, it means you’re looking down on me, and you don’t want to be friends with me,” Qin Siyu said. She did not want to take advantage of Xu Youyou so she could only use this method.
“Alright,” Xu Youyou said, not wanting to waste time. She walked around and browsed the bottles of perfume on the shelves. Each bottle was labeled with the name of the perfume. Her attention was immediately attracted when she saw a bottle with the label ‘Treasured Heart’. It reminded her of how Mo Shenbai called her ‘little treasure’.
Qin Siyu noticed Xu Youyou’s interest so she stepped forward and handed the bottle of perfume to her. “This perfume has a sweeter scent. It’s very suitable for you.”
Xu Youyou sprayed on her wrist. A faint and sweet fragrance wafted into her nose immediately. “It smells really good! I want this!”
“Alright. Why don’t you pick a few more bottles?” Qin Siyu said generously. The perfumes here were all handmade. Their prices were not cheap, but it was still far from the prices of perfumes from big brands.
Xu Youyou shook her head. “I’ll use this one first. When I’m done, I’ll choose another bottle.”
“Alright.” Qin Siyu nodded. Then, she closed the shop and left with Xu Youyou.
…
Qin Siyu brought Xu Youyou to a barbeque restaurant in the mall. There were many customers at this moment. However, since Qin Siyu was familiar with the lady boss, they were given priority.
Qin Siyu ordered a few of the restaurant’s signature dishes before telling Xu Youyou to order what she wanted.
“I’m not picky. You can order whatever you want. Moreover, I don’t know what’s good here,” Xu Youyou said.
Qin Siyu did not stand on ceremony and continued to order.
Xu Youyou looked at the line of people outside. She suddenly thought of something and asked, “Sister Siyu, can you help me with something?”
Qin Siyu, who was flipping through the menu, looked up and asked, “What is it?”
“Can you teach me how to make perfume?” Xu Youyou asked, clasping her hands together. Her clear eyes looked at Qin Siyu hopefully.
“Yes, I can,” Qin Siyu agreed generously. Then, she asked curiously, “Why do you suddenly want to learn how to make perfume?”
Xu Youyou smiled and said, embarrassed, “Mr. Bai’s birthday is coming up soon. I want to give him a birthday present.”
Xu Youyou had been mulling over Mo Shenbai’s birthday gift. When she saw Qin Siyu’s handmade perfumes, she was inspired to make a bottle of perfume for Mo Shenbai. She hoped to use Mo Shenbai’s woodsy fragrance as a base and add her favorite notes to it.
Qin Siyu, who was suddenly forced to watch this display of love, said, “No problem. You can look for me any time.”
“Thank you, Sister Yu!”
Xu Youyou had just finished speaking when her phone rang.
“Hello…” Xu Youyou’s voice turned even softer than usual.
With this, Qin Siyu instantly knew who was on the other end of the line. She tactfully excused herself and went to the bathroom.
Mo Shenbai had called home, and the butler had told him Xu Youyou was not home. Hence, he called to ask where she was.
“Sister Siyu and I are having dinner in a barbecue restaurant,” Xu Youyou said before briefly recounting what happened. Then, she asked, “Do you want to join us?”
“Okay, send me your location.”
Xu Youyou: “…”
‘I was just being perfunctory, but you actually agreed to come?!’
Qin Siyu calculated the time before she returned to the table. As soon as she sat down, she saw the troubled and conflicted expression on Xu Youyou’s face. She asked, “What’s wrong? Could it be that Chairman Mo is unhappy about you having dinner with me?”
“That’s not it…”
Qin Siyu had just sighed in relief when she heard Xu Youyou say, “Mr. Bai said that he wants to join us.”
Qin Siyu immediately spat out the water that she had just drunk.
Xu Youyou, who was sitting across from Qin Siyu, was inevitably affected.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” Qin Siyu hurriedly apologized.
Xu Youyou shook her head. “It’s alright.” She handed a piece of tissue to Qin Siyu as she said sheepishly, “I invited him perfunctorily, and I didn’t expect him to agree to join us. Do you mind?”
“I don’t mind,” Qin Yu said after wiping her mouth, “I just didn’t expect that the aloof Chairman Mo from before would be so clingy.”
He could not even wait for his wife to finish dinner and had to come over immediately.
