Some girls walked away, looking defeated and reluctant.

  Why did such an excellent man never happen to cross their lives?

  Shangguan Ning glared at these girls and had her arms over Jing Yichen’s as if fearing that he would be taken away.

  Jing Yichen laughed loudly and walked out slowly with her.

  They had spent more than two hours inside. He wanted to take her back to the car to rest, worrying that Shangguan Ning might have gotten tired.

  “Are you tired, baby? Do you want to go home or stay here a bit longer?”


  Shangguan Ning said instantly, “Of course I am tired. How could I not be? I have used all my energy to glare at these women. They would have died if my looks could kill. Are the girls nowadays so bold and over enthusiastic? I am standing right next to you and they are thinking about throwing themselves at you. Will they end up being in your arms if I am not here with you?”


  “Sigh, my wife is jealous. I can feel the sourness even at this distance. Will I get punished for this?”


  “No, I am too kind and also it is not your fault to be this good looking.”


  Shangguan Ning had suddenly put on a look of being kind and understanding, but Jing Yichen looked at her warily – this wasn’t her style! She wouldn’t be so tolerant. When Shangguan Rouxue had barely touched him, she slapped her right on the face, with full strength!

  Sure enough, she said with a smile the following moment, “But it is your fault to instigate these girls by being a good-looking man. You can stand with your knees bent, on a durian tonight!”


  “When did I instigate women?” Jing Yichen felt like laughing. But he held it back. “I didn’t even look at them. You are wrongly accusing me. My focus is on you only, and am under your control.”


  “Hmm, that sounds right.” Shangguan Ning giggled proudly. Of course she knew that Jing Yichen would not fall for those women. She had just been a bit jealous when her man was being stared at, by others.

  They walked around for another two hours before she got a bit tired. It was already lunch time.

  “You must treat me to something good to console my mind and soul, otherwise me and the son will report you for mistreating us.”


  “No problem. I can treat you to anything you want!”


  “Then I want to eat hot-pot!”


  “That doesn’t work, choose something else!”


  “I want to eat sugar-coated hawthorns!”


  “That doesn’t work either, choose something else!”


  “.……”


  Shangguan Ning could not think of anything else that she wanted to eat by the time they got into the car.

  “Are you trying to starve me and my son when you forbid us to eat anything?”


  Jing Yichen smiled and said, “You only picked those things which a pregnant woman should not eat. That is not my fault.”


  Shangguan Ning glared back at him and then thought of the western restaurant Victoria, which belonged to Zhao Anan. So she said cheerfully, “Let’s go to Anan’s restaurant to eat beefsteak!”


  Finally, Jing Yichen nodded and smiled. “Okay, let’s go and eat beefsteak. We can revisit the place where we had our first date.”


  Shangguan Ning thought so too.

  Victoria was the place she and Jing Yichen had met for the first time. It was a special place for both of them.

  Also, Jing Yichen was driving that same silver Aston Martin which had left a deep impression on Shangguan Ning when she had seen it for the first time.

  Back then, she had assumed that Tiger was the owner of this sportscar.

  Shangguan Ning felt her heart beating fast when she thought of their first meeting. She still remembered Jing Yichen’s cold look. Looking back, those were wonderful memories for her, now.

  “When you moved into Landscape Compound that time, I had seen many large trucks parked down below. I had thought that those things were meant for several people and not one.”


  Jing Yichen got slightly startled. “You knew when I moved in?”


  Shangguan Ning smiled and said cheerfully, “Yes, I was out for a morning jog and ran into Tiger. He was standing right next to your car and giving directions to those men. At that time, I thought that Tiger was the owner. I never expected that he was working for you.”


  “But I remembered your car since it was the only one of that kind here in A City. I recognized it the moment I came to Anan’s restaurant. But I didn’t match the owner to the car at that time.”


  It was a wonderful world where you couldn’t dodge what was supposed to happen.

  They had not known each other for even one year and their lives had become intertwined before merging into one.

  With one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding Shangguan Ning’s hands, Jing Yichen listened to her talking about the initial impression which he had left upon her and their first experience together.

  Actually, he felt much more emotional than Shangguan Ning.

  There had never been a woman like her who walked into his life like this and now was there to accompany him in all the four seasons, just like the warm sunlight that shone.

  He had thought that he would die alone.

  After knowing Shangguan Ning, his frozen world of black and white started to recover and was thronged with shining and splendid colors.

  Shangguan Ning was an outgoing woman who liked talking and laughing. She was simple and pure and had given him a comfortable feeling even during their first meeting. At this moment when she was babbling about the things which happened in the past, the silent car was filled up with her scent and cheerful voice.

  “.……Good that Anan told me about you being cold and arrogant before our meeting. It seems that only I could stand your distant behavior back then.”


  “But you were so good looking and it was okay if you were cold. I treated you as a statue so the meal went well.”


  “I had thought that you were not a suitable man to spend my life with. I had been forced on that blind date by Anan. Oh yes, she told me later that she got a pocket money of 100,000 yuan from her mother to set me up with you.”


  Jing Yichen had not known that Zhao Anan used to earn money by making use of him. He burst into laughter after hearing the words. “Only 100,000 yuan? How unworthy you must have been. But it seems that you are happy to have been sold by her.”


  Shangguan Ning blamed Zhao Anan for this and now she was teased by Jing Yichen too.

  But she was very happy and grateful indeed!

  Had it not been for Zhao Anan, she would not have met Jing Yichen!”


  “I am not in a disadvantageous status after being sold by her. I have done well. Look at me, I have got a husband like you. I have your house, your car and your savings, everything is mine!”
