It’s their first time inside Jing Bo Yuan’s office room.
She is laying down on that dark large wooden table. Her hot burning back is touching the cold wooden table.
She looks at the see-through glass window.
After a while, Ye Qing Xin regains herself and Jing Bo Yuan retreats from her body.
“Will someone see us?” Ye Qing Xin asks for the fifth time.
This glass is really transparent.
“It’s already done, what if someone sees it? What are you doing to do?” Jing Bo Yuan takes tissue and wipes her.
“Anyway I’ll not lose my face alone, I don’t care.” Ye Qing Xin lays down again.
Jing Bo Yuan smiles and picks up all the scattering clothes. He helps her to wear it again.
Ye Qing Xin just wears her clothes. Jing Bo Yuan hasn’t wore his white t-shirt and then the door is knocked.
“Chief Jing, Chief He from He group is looking for you...”
That the door is knocked even louder and urgent. “Wow! What are you doing? Why are you locking the door in this daylight day, are you hiding a woman inside? Bo Yuan, open the door! There’s an urgent matter ! It’s really urgent!” It’s clear that He Ji Fan is joking.
“Chief He, it’s better for you to wait in the waiting room for a while. Chief Jing... he is busy.....” Secretary Mi sounds like she is having a difficult time. It’s clear that He Ji Fan has been doing this several times.
Ye Qing Xin is worried about He Ji Fan’s action, she urges him. “Hurry up wear your shirt.”
Jing Bo Yuan just wears his clothes calmly. He isn’t worried.
The door is knocked again.
Ye Qing Xin finally cannot endure it anymore. She picks up Jing Bo Yuan’s pants.
“Raise up your legs!”
Jing Bo Yuan smiles and cooperates with her order.
“The other one.”
Jing Bo Yuan follows her lead.
Jing Bo Yuan buckles his belt and kisses Ye Qing Xin’s chin. Then he goes to the door.
Ye Qing Xin picks and arranges all the office stationery, which were pushed down by Jing Bo Yuan down. Then she runs to hide inside the resting room.
Jing Bo Yuan knows that she should be embarrassed so he waits till she is inside and opens the door.
“Finally you are willing to open the door?” He Ji Fan looks at Jing Bo Yuan and points at his waist. “You should control yourself. You are old. You also need to do it when you are home, why should you play that way during the daylight? Can you endure it?”
“Where is the woman that let you locked the door during the day?” He Ji Fan looks around and finally notices the resting room. “She is hiding? Shouldn’t you call her to introduce her to me? Are you afraid that I’ll tell Di Mei about this?”
Jing Bo Yuan ignores his nonsense remark and closes the door without expression. He sits down on his seat and takes a cigarette box out, he throws it to He Ji Fan. “It’s better be a really urgent matter.”
He Ji Fan catches it and smokes one. “The person that we sent to Hong Kong finally called me....”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know when He Ji Fan did leave, she just lays on the bed and opens the group chat of domestic fashion designers.
During the fashion designer gathering in Paris, someone invited her to join the group chat. She rarely says something in the group. She just reads the chat.
After the fashion show, she has turned somewhat known and gets a lot supports.
When she doesn’t have class, she frequently goes to Pear studio. As for the rest of time, she will accompany three little guys at home. Life is long, for any matter she thinks she can fulfill it slowly but for her time to watch kids’ growing up is finite, she doesn’t want to miss it.
She reads the group chat and laughs.
Jing Bo Yuan opens the door and watches his young wife laughing so happily, “What is it that makes you laughing so happy?”
“Nothing.” Ye Qing Xin puts down her phone and looks at him, “He Ji Fan is leaving?”
Jing Bo Yuan: “Em.”
“Then I’ll go home too.” Ye Qing Xin gets off the bed. “I will go and visit Wai Po. At night after the class, I’ll go visit Nai Nai.”
Old Madame Yan has been discharged but her condition is not really good. Perhaps she doesn’t want Ye Qing Xin to be worried or perhaps she doesn’t want to bring any sad atmosphere to the kids, she stubbornly just wants to return to Yan family house to stay.
Because of what happened during her second son’s wedding, Old Madame Jing isn’t in mood to play with grandchildren, she returns to Jing family residence to calm herself down. Without three elders at home, Nan Shan mansion has turned quieter.
Jing Bo Yuan brings Ye Qing Xin to have lunch and then drives her to Old Madame Yan’s house.
After that he drives her home back to Nan Shan mansion again.
The time they arrive, Ye Qing Xin notices a black car parks in front of the house.
“Er Shu is here?” Ye Qing Xin recognizes that car.
She enters the living room and notices Jing Yi and He Shu E are sitting down on the sofa. Jing Yi is smoking so there’s a cigarette smell around the room. The three babies are not downstair so it’s okay.
“Er Shu.” Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan greets Jing Yi.
“Em.” He says: “These days thank you for your care for Xi Fan. I come here to pick her up.”
Xi Fan is already put inside the cage next to Jing Yi’s leg.
“Xi Fan is very obedient, it’s nothing.” Ye Qing Xin smiles.
Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan sit down on the sofa.
“There’s still no news from Xiao Xi?” He Shu E asks.
Jing Yi shakes his head. He just stands up and picks up the cage. “I’ll leave first.”
The other stand up and send him out.
Jing Yi puts the cage on the front passenger seat.
Jing Yi looks at Ye Qing Xin before he leaves: “If she contacts you, remember to tell me.”
Ye Qing Xin used to chat a lot with Wen Ren Xi, Jing Yi knows it.
“Okay.”
The black car leaves.
Ye Qing Xin feels somewhat complicated.
The time Wen Ren Xi and Jing Yi discussed their marriage, Jing Yi’s actions showed that he didn’t treasure and valued her enough. Just like the wedding day, Wen Ren Xi loves Jing Yi too much, she has waited for him for twenty years. She leaves because of her disappointment.
Jing Yi delayed the wedding time. This might somehow be consequence of what Jing Yi did.
“Bo Yuan, there’s really no news from Er Shen?” Ye Qing Xin cannot believe it. With Jing family’s ability, how can they cannot find Wen Ren Xi?”
“Wait till she thinks it out, she will come back.”
“What do you know?” Ye Qing Xin feels that Jing Bo Yuan should know something.
Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t answer and just says: “Let’s get in.”
Inside the living room, Auntie Zhang is opening the windows to let the cigarette smoke comes out.
Ye Qing Xin looks at the sofa, where Xi Fan used to lay down. She thinks of Xi Jie’s whereabout.
For this matter, these days Jing Yi also thinks about it. According to what he has investigated, Wen Ren Xi doesn’t leave Jign City. That night she returned to her house and just stayed there for half an hour. She dragged out her suitcase and took taxi to leave.
The taxi driver took her to the eastern suburbs and disappeared. He has searched for the taxi driver. The taxi driver told him that the female passenger got off the car halfway and he didn’t know where she went too.
Wen Ren Xi just disappeared
Jing Yi stops the car on the roadside and opened the cage. He picks up Xi Fan, a fat and chubby old cat that has been raised well by Wen Ren Xi.
How did they know each other?
Twenty years go, once he had a duty to escort top drug trafficker, who had made trouble, back to Jing City. The drug trafficker’s subordinates tried to help the drug trafficker escaped by taking innocent people as hostages. That time the twenty-years old Wen Ren Xi was unlucky as she was one of the hostages.
That time Jing Yi and Su Mei were passionately in love. Su Mei is in the same age as Wen Ren Xi. The time Jing Yi saw Wen Ren Xi’s shock expression, he couldn’t help but to remember his woman. So he tried hard to help her out.
Jing Yi forgot about that quickly as he was in the special force. Helping others is common thing for him.
Afterwards, every time he returns home to rest, she would always appear. At first she watched him from far distance.
That time he didn’t remember that he used to rescue her, he just knows that she is Wen Ren’s family’s daughter.
Wen Ren family and Jing family aren’t close, but afterwards they are close because of Wen Ren Xi.
The time he and Su Mei broke up, Wen Ren Xi just approached him gradually.
She told him that he had saved her, she confessed her feeling.
When he recalls all of these, he also remembered a thing.
Xi Fan is the cat that Su Mei left.
Jing Yi wanted to leave to return to the unit, he could’t take care of it. Jing family couldn’t keep that cat. He just remembered Wen Ren Xi and just the time he asked her to keep the cat, she just agreed to it happily.
That time he thought that she likes cat. But now when he thinks about it, he just realizes that she just raises Xi Fan because of him. She is happy with the cat because he is the one that gave it to her.
JIng Yi put the Xi Fan’s chubby body on his thigh. He strokes the cat’s head.
A cat usually can only live for 12-17 years, Xi Fan has lived for twenty years.
“Do you know where is your owner?”
Xi Fan’s ear moves and she just moves her tail.
“Your owner doesn’t want you anymore, yet you are so calm.”
Jing Yi laughs bitterly.
Xi Fan just moves her tail again.
Jing Yi extends his hand and takes a brown envelope. He opens it and takes out the divorce agreement form.
He got it this morning by delivery courier. It’s sent from eastern suburb. He looked for the delivery courier and asked him about it. The delivery courier just said that a woman asked him to help on the way. There’s no other clue.
He just knows that Wen Ren Xi in eastern suburb area. It’s just she is hiding with a plan. As eastern suburb is a wide area, for the time being, it’s hard to find her.
On the form, there’s her signature: “Wen Ren Xi.”
Jing Yi’s phone suddenly vibrates.
He takes it out and looks at it. He cannot believe it.
That number has been off for more than ten days.
“Xiao Xi.” Jing Yi answers.
“You are Jing Yi?” The caller is an unknown man.
Jing Yi is startled. “Who are you?”
“I am Xiao Xi’s friend. She asked me to tell you. Tomorrow morning 10 a.m., meet at the civil administration office.”
“Where is she?”
“I already passed her message to you. Goodbye.” Then the caller just hangs up.
Jing Yi calls again but the phone is switched off again.
He calls several times more but it’s off.
After a while, he puts down his phone and takes out his cigarette. He smokes again.
The time he returns to his and Wen Ren Xi’s house, it’s already 10:00 p.m.
This house is chosen by Wen Ren Xi. All the furnitures and everything inside are selected by her.
He opens the cage and let Xi Fan moves freely. Xi Fan just climbs to the sofa and lays down there.
Jing Yi also sits down on the sofa and smokes again.
Jing Yi then takes shower and goes to the dressing room to take his own clothes. He just realizes most of the clothes inside the dressing room are his. Wen Ren Xi just has few clothes around.
This house is close to his previous own house so it’s easy for him to move here. That time he asked her to move in too, yet she said: “How can I just move here to male’s house without being married. I’ll wait till we finish our wedding, then I’ll move in.”
He laughed at her seriousness.
She just smiles and said that way the marriage will last long.
Now he thinks that it’s a good memory between them.
He takes his own shirt and suddenly he looks at a black printed shirt that Wen Ren Xi bought for him.
Wen Ren Xi bought it for him, she said that he looks young and handsome when he wears it. Jing Yi disliked that because it’s too gaudy for his taste. He never wears it. Wen Ren Xi never complains and just sighs that he doesn’t know how to appreciate.
He wears the black printed shirt with a black suit. He also wears a belt. He looks at the mirror and indeed it’s look good.
At 07:00 p.m. the civil administration office is still closed. Jing Yi has stood nearby.
The sun shines high up now.
After while, there’s a sweet loving couple coming. With a glance, someone can guess that they are coming for a marriage registration. There’s a couple too that walk far away. With a glance, it’s easy to know that they are coming for a divorce.
“Ay, do I look okay? I feel this one is not as good as that white dress? But today is our wedding day, I am so happy that I want to wear livelier clothes.”
The man, who is holding the woman says, “You look beautiful no matter what dress you wear. If we are not going inside now, they will get off the work soon. We are just coming to register our marriage, why should you be so complicated.”
“Just register our marriage? This only once a lifetime. It’s very important okay? I just want to look the best on this day.”
Jing Yi watches their interaction and cannot help to recall what happened on the day he and Wen Ren Xi came to register their marriage. Since the time they were out of the house, she was so nervous. In short while, she asked him whether her hair is in a mess. In another short while, she asked whether her makeup looks okay. In next time, she asked whether she looks pretty....
That time she had this kind of thought?
The time he is thinking, a taxi stops on the roadside. Then the female gets off the car while wearing a long skirt.
Jing Yi feels his world is turning brighter when he recognizes that woman as Wen Ren Xi.
He comes toward her: “Xiao Xi.”
He holds her hand and looks at her in the eyes. He says: “I’m sorry.”
Wen Ren Xi smiles and takes back her hand. She says gently: “You are not owing me anything. You don’t need to say you are sorry. Let’s get in.”
