He was somewhat shocked by the decision.

For the reason that multi gifted assistant Jian Yao appeared in his life, Bo Jinyan  seldom calls him anymore.  There was even one event, the place he tried to ask Bo Jinyan out for dinner,  Bo Jinyan  declined: “I gained’t go.  Jian Yao has ready dinner…. There’s solely sufficient meals for the 2 of us.  Don’t come over.” 

What’s occurred to Bo Jinyan ?  Is he ‘dumped’ by Jian Yao? 

That is extra fascinating than enjoying tennis with a fairly lady.  So he excused himself rapidly and went to Bo Jinyan ’s home.

When he enters Bo Jinyan ’s house, Fu Ziyu  finds him sitting on the couch, studying a ebook.  

Bo Jinyan  takes a short look at Fu Ziyu  and returns to his ebook.

Fu Ziyu  sits throughout from him: “The place are we going?”

“Your name.”

Fu Ziyu  pours himself a cup of tea.  Then he asks causally: “Ought to I ask Jian Yao to return alongside?”

Bo Jinyan  turns over a web page.  With out lifting his head, he solutions: “No matter.”

It’s been some time since Fu Ziyu  noticed Jian Yao.  He misses her.  So he will get up from the couch and heads to the entrance door.  

When he’s ready for the elevator, he notices Bo Jinyan  is subsequent to him.  

“Why are you following me?” 

“Mmm… Simply to take a breather.” solutions Bo Jinyan .

Within the carry.  Fu Ziyu  seems to be on the numbers altering on the show panel, and turns round to take a look at Bo Jinyan .   Take a breather?  At a younger girl’s house?

The 2 males stand exterior Jian Yao’s house.

Fu Ziyu  rings the doorbell once more.  Nobody is answering.  

He turns to take a look at Bo Jinyan : “Nicely, princess will not be residence.  Name her.”

Bo Jinyan  is wanting on the peephole on the door, he sounds unwilling: “Why don’t you name her?”

One thing sparks in Fu Ziyu ’s mind: ”What’s the matter with you two?  Is she supplying you with the silent therapy?”

Bo Jinyan ’s frowns.  He seems to be at Fu Ziyu  and however doesn’t reply his query.  

In some way, seeing Bo Jinyan  ‘undergo’ is sort of a satisfying expertise.  Fu Ziyu  smiles and takes out his cell phone: “Hey, fairly lady.  The place are you? O.. taking commencement photographs…”

—————-

Fu Ziyu  is attempting to get the total story of what’s occurred whereas driving to the College.

“So… she has not seen you for 2 days?”

Bo Jinyan  is clearly in a foul temper.  He utters: “Yea…”

Fu Ziyu  is having fun with this dialog: “She has not referred to as you…. or come right down to your house…”

“Yea…”

“She has declined your invites to dine collectively… not even speaking to you…” 

There’s an enormous smile on Fu Ziyu ’s face.  He’s gloating over his misfortunes. Bo Jinyan  seems to be at him: “You infantile prick!”

Fu Ziyu  laughs: “Who’s the infantile one right here?  Jian Yao is essentially the most affected person particular person I’ve ever recognized.  You need to have executed one thing fallacious to make her so offended.  You must apologise to her.”

It’s Bo Jinyan ’s flip to be silent.  

Fu Ziyu  thinks for some time: “No… you don’t even know why she is offended with you?” 

Bo Jinyan  seems to be at him: “After all I do.  She is sort of a sheet of clean paper in entrance of me.” 

Fu Ziyu  seems to be at him significantly: “So what’s she offended about?”

Bo Jinyan  rests his arm on the door deal with.  He thinks for some time: “She doesn’t wish to see me now, as a result of she is selecting between me and Yin Ziqi.” 

He explains the state of affairs and Yin Ziqi’s supply to Fu Ziyu .    

Fu Ziyu : “Ah… I see.”  

Bo Jinyan : “Clearly, she is underneath stress, so she doesn’t wish to speak to me.”

Fu Ziyu  thinks for a second: “Sure, it will likely be a tough determination for her.  She’s labored laborious for a couple of years to get her diploma. And you’re asking her to forgo such a superb alternative for a job that’s is bodily tiring and mentally taxing.  Whether it is me, I’ll select Yin Ziqi’s supply too.”

Bo Jinyan  remembers her phrases at Yin Ziqi’s workplace: “I don’t belong to you…” 

She didn’t select him on the time.  

Fu Ziyu  faucets his shoulder: “Are you aware what it’s best to do now?”

“What?”

“Girl must be coaxed and pampered.  In the event you don’t need your assistant to run away, I counsel we’ll do no matter she desires for the following few days.  Girls are emotional creatures.  If she feels touched, she’s going to select you.”

The summer time flowers fill the gardens within the College campus.  There are graduates all over the place, proudly strolling round of their regalia.  The properly manicured floor supplies a pleasant backdrop for photographs.  

Fu Ziyu  parks his automobile on the facet of the street.  They appear out of the window and see a gaggle of women sitting on the grass.

The overseas language college is known for fairly women.  Jian Yao will not be essentially the most excellent magnificence amongst them.  However her lengthy hair, magnificence and poise nonetheless appeal to a whole lot of consideration.  

She is taking photographs together with her associates.  They’re posing like fashions in {a magazine} taking pictures.  She has a candy smile on her face.

The 2 males haven’t seen the energetic and energetic facet of her earlier than.  Fu Ziyu  smiles: “This brings again reminiscences of my scholar days.”  He seems to be at Bo Jinyan .  He has a smile on his face too.

Fu Ziyu  asks: “I believed you hate girl who likes to pose.”  After they have been in college, a whole lot of women have been focused on Bo Jinyan .  A few of them would intentionally stroll previous the boys or strategy them, hoping he would take discover.  Bo Jinyan  refused to exit with any of them. He hates women that attempt to make themselves look horny.  He simply thinks they’re pathetic.  

Bo Jinyan  says defensively: “She is so pure.  You don’t have a lot of an thought what makes a girl lovely.  You must work on that.”

As a few of her associates begin to go away, Fu Ziyu  says to Bo Jinyan : “Go and sit within the backseat.” 

“Why?”

“You would possibly scare her away.  You aren’t in her good books proper now.”

Bo Jinyan  reluctantly strikes to the again.  

“Preserve the window up!”  He continues to instruct Bo Jinyan .  

After the window is tightly closed, he waves and raises his voice: “Jian Yao!”

Jian Yao walks over to the automobile.  She will see that somebody is within the backseat.  She pretends to not discover and says Hello to Fu Ziyu .

Truly, she will not be intentionally attempting to disregard Bo Jinyan  for the previous few days.  She needed to prepare for the commencement ceremony.  And a whole lot of her associates are on the town, so she’s been busy catching up with them.

However the reality is, she doesn’t wish to see him anyway.  

“Let go for a meal.” Fu Ziyu  opens the automobile door for the girl: “I miss you a lot!”

Jian Yao offers him a smile, and hops into the automobile.

It’s the weekend.  There arefewer vehicles on the street.  Fu Ziyu ’s Lexus is driving at a pleasant and regular tempo on the freeway.

Fu Ziyu  places the radio on.  Usually he sings alongside.  Different occasions, he chats with Jian Yao.  She asks him about his work on the hospital.  

Bo Jinyan  could be very quiet.  There’s no sound coming from the backseat.  It’s as if he’s not there in any respect. Jian Yao takes a peek at him within the rearview mirror   His good-looking face seems to be calm and picked up. 

“Jian Yao, the place do you wish to go for dinner?”  Fu Ziyu  asks once more.

“Oh… I don’t thoughts.  Why don’t you resolve.” solutions Jian Yao.

Mmm… why does she really feel so uneasy?  

She takes one other peek at Bo Jinyan .  He’s looking at her by way of the rearview mirror.  In reality, his eyes are fastened on her, following her each transfer.  

She feels her face is blushing.  She slides down the seat in order that she can be out of sight for Bo Jinyan .  

———-

They stroll right into a Cantonese restaurant.  The waiter brings them to a desk that may seat 4 individuals.  A display separates them from a pleasant out of doors backyard.  It’s a classy restaurant. 

As Jian Yao is sitting down, Bo Jinyan  mechanically takes the seat subsequent to her. Like he normally does.  

Jian Yao refuses to look in his course.

Fu Ziyu  passes the menu to Jian Yao. “You are able to do the ordering as we speak.”  

Jian Yao is comfortable to oblige.  As she is doing the ordering, the lads talked in regards to the Flower Cannibal No.2 case.  

“There’s two forms of soups as we speak, They’re served individually. What would you want?” says Jian Yao to the blokes: “Mushroom or tripe?”

“Tripe.” says Fu Ziyu .

With out wanting up from the menu, Jian Yao asks “What about Jinyan?”

“Mushroom.”  Bo Jinyan  says with a contented voice.

Jian Yao intentionally retains her eyes on the menu. She is popping the web page to see what else she will order.  “What about you, miss,” asks the waiter :”Which soup would you want?”

She prefers mushroom.  She is about to reply ‘Tripe’ when she hears Bo Jinyan  telling the waiter: “She desires mushroom soup too.”

Fu Ziyu  seems to be on the two of them.  Jian Yao lowers her head much more.   

Love is within the air.  He smiles. 

———

Jian Yao’s glass is empty.  Fu Ziyu  offers Bo Jinyan  a nudge along with his arm, then seems to be on the jug of orange juice on the desk.  

Earlier than Jian Yao reaches out for the jug, a protracted and slender hand seems in entrance of her, and will get maintain of the deal with.

She watches Bo Jinyan  pour her a glass of orange juice, then brings it to her.  

“Take pleasure in.” he says.

Jian Yao takes a have a look at him: “Thanks.”

That is the primary time he has served her on the dinner desk.  Normally, he’s the prince that doesn’t carry a finger.  

She is just a little puzzled about his uncommon behaviour. 

As she is preoccupied, Jian Yao is extra quiet than ordinary.  Fu Ziyu  offers Bo Jinyan  one other sign with eye contact: Speak to her.  You’ve offended her.  Do you count on her to provoke a dialog? 

Bo Jinyan  offers him a nod.  Simply as Fu Ziyu  thought he understands what to do, Bo Jinyan  seems to be on the dish of steamed fish in entrance of him.  He takes a fork and spoon and begins to fiddle with the fish.  

Fu Ziyu  is speechless.  There’s a clumsy silence.  He offers up on Bo Jinyan  and begins chatting to Jian Yao.

Jian Yao takes a look at Bo Jinyan .  It’s apparent that he doesn’t share the identical affections she has for him.  It’s time to stroll away.  

Fu Ziyu ’s cellphone rings.  He takes the decision.  Jian Yao continues together with her dinner.

Then there’s a faucet on her shoulder.  

She turns her head and sees Bo Jinyan  pushing a bowl in the direction of her. 

She is surprised. 

Fish.

It’s piled with fish.  Tiny items of fillet, deboned and punctiliously piled right into a bowl.  

“Take pleasure in.” he says once more, whereas giving his fingers a superb stretch after the ‘laborious work’.    

Jian Yao seems to be at him.  Many issues are working by way of her thoughts.  She seems to be straight into his eyes: “What are you attempting to do?”

Bo Jinyan  seems to be at her: “You possibly can’t inform?”

Jian Yao shakes her head.

Is it simply an phantasm or Bo Jinyan  is feeling just a little heat due to the climate… His face seems to be prefer it’s just a little pink.  Although his eyes are nonetheless giving his ordinary detached and barely chilly gaze.  

“I’m coaxing and pampering you.” he smiles.
