You Jing was filled with joy because the person shopping with Meng Jie was not a man but Ye Zhen.
But even so, You Jing was still at a loss as he stood in front of Meng Jie. His Adam's apple kept rolling, and he had no idea what to say to Meng Jie.
Ye Zhen took a sip of the steaming hot coffee and smelled the aroma of the coffee. She really couldn't stand it anymore.
"Young Master You, if you don't have anything else to do, please help yourself. I still want to have afternoon tea with Miss Meng."
Ye Zhen made it very clear that she wanted to chase him away, but You Jing stood there like a statue. He was clearly a playboy who played around in the mortal world and had long practiced a glib tongue. But at this moment, he was like a hothead, unable to say a single word.
Even if he couldn't say anything, could it be that he couldn't read her expression?
Couldn't he read Meng Jie's face when she wanted to draw a clear line between them and not have anything to do with him?
You Jing wasn't unable to say anything. It was just that in front of Meng Jie, he really couldn't say a single word. What's more, Ye Zhen was also in front of him.
If Ye Zhen wasn't here, You Jing might still be able to shamelessly say a few words to Meng Jie.
"I..."
You Jing had just mustered up his courage to speak when Meng Jie, who was sitting opposite Ye Zhen, smiled apologetically at Ye Zhen and said, "Mrs. Lu, it was a pleasure shopping with you today, but it's too late. I still have something to do. If there's a chance in the future, I'll treat Mrs. Lu to a meal."
Ye Zhen understood Meng Jie's apology and said, "It's okay. If there's time in the future, we'll contact each other again."
Meng Jie stood up apologetically and said goodbye to Ye Zhen before walking out.
You Jing had been following beside Meng Jie the whole time. Without Ye Zhen, the third wheel, he kept saying something to Meng Jie, but Meng Jie still had that indifferent expression on her face. She treated You Jing as if he was nothing. When they reached the car, she stopped and looked at You Jing. No one knew what she said, but You Jing's expression instantly fell. It was as if his feet were nailed to the ground.
After Meng Jie got into the car, You Jing didn't chase after her. He just watched her leave with a lonely expression.
Ye Zhen took a sip of coffee and sighed.
She didn't comment on Meng Jie and You Jing. Feelings were between the two of them, and outsiders wouldn't understand what it was like to be in a relationship.
Meng Jie said that she and You Jing weren't suitable for each other, so there must be a reason for that. You Jing liked Meng Jie and didn't want to let go. Then there must be a reason why he didn't want to let go. Perhaps You Jing was wrong about what happened back then, or perhaps there was something else going on, but no one was in a position to blame the two of them.
As dusk fell, Ye Zhen returned home with the last ray of the setting sun. She gave Mrs. Lu the clothes she bought for her. Mrs. Lu was full of reproach and kept saying that she didn't need to buy anything for her when she went shopping. She said she was too tired, but she couldn't help but smile.
Because Zhouzhou had been obedient at home the whole day, Ye Zhen rewarded him with the toy he wanted the most. Zhouzhou hugged Ye Zhen and kissed her a few times. He kept saying that he would be good in the future.
After dinner, Ye Zhen read a book for a while. It wasn't until after 8pm that Lu Beichuan came back from the company.
Perhaps it was because the Old Master Lu had passed away not long ago, but the people in the company weren't stable. Lu Beichuan needed to spend a lot of effort to stabilize the current situation. There were many things to do in the company, so it was normal for him to leave early and return late.
But all his fatigue disappeared the moment he saw Ye Zhen that night.
"What are you reading?"
"A book about the producer …"
Lu Beichuan hugged Ye Zhen from behind. He rested his chin on Ye Zhen's shoulder and smelled the fragrance of her hair. He read most of the book that Ye Zhen was reading.
"You've been busy all day. Hurry up and take a shower and get some rest." Ye Zhen moved her shoulders and closed the book. She urged Lu Beichuan.
Lu Beichuan took a deep breath and put the documents he brought back from the company on the table. He took off his jacket and walked into the bathroom.
However, when Lu Beichuan came out of the bathroom, he saw Zhouzhou lying on the bed with his mother's waist and listening to Ye Zhen tell him a story.
"In the end, the brave knight defeated the demon and saved the princess. He lived a happy life with the princess."
Zhouzhou looked up at Ye Zhen. "Is it like the happy life of Mummy and Daddy?"
Ye Zhen smiled and pinched Zhouzhou's fair and tender face. "Yes, and she gave birth to a little Zhouzhou."
"Zhouzhou wants to be a knight to save the princess and live a happy life!"
Ye Zhen closed the book. "If you want to be a knight to save the princess, you have to go to bed early. Hurry up and go back to your room."
Zhouzhou hugged Ye Zhen and didn't let go. He acted like a spoiled child beside her. "Mummy, tell me another story. Tell me the last one, okay?"
