Chapter 99: Divorce (2)
The three looked at each other, then gave a fatherly smile at the same time and pulled Niu Junjie down to inquire him.
Knowing that he had exposed himself, Niu Junjie stuttered to spoke without reserve about the cause and effect of falling in love with the girl.
So the story was like this: One day, the rich 2G Niu Junjie, in company with his father, attended a business partner’s birthday party. He ran into a kind-hearted, beautiful and generous adorable young girl. The girl could play the piano! She was especially nice to children! She threw herself forward and defended him when he was ridiculed by some upstart for dressing too low-key.
Then they met, only to find out after a chat that they were alumni. They got to know each other step by step, and then the rich 2G was tempted and sought to make her his girlfriend.
Wang Hu: “Is that the reason you come to play basketball every day?”
Niu Junjie was embarrassed. “She is one of the basketball club members who come over often to watch the game…”
Chen Jie: “And the library?”
Niu Junjie scratched his face and stated. “She majors in Department of Chinese, of which the courses have nothing to do with our department. I can only meet her at the library.”
He Bai recalled how the sister-in-law disliked LaoSan when mentioning how they getting to know each other. He prayed for LaoSan in heart and asked, “So you kept early hours to fit her time?”
“Hmm? Well, she gets used to go to the playground for morning exercises …”, Niu Junjie was blushed as a red monkey’s ass.
The three looked at each other again, then pushed Niu out and winked, “Go on, go bold!”
Niu Junjie shyly hid away.
The three kicked his ass as they were exasperated at his flinch.
Turned to look back repeatedly at every step, Niu Junjie narrowed the distance between the girl and him gradually.
It seemed that Mind acted upon Mind, the girl suddenly looked back toward Niu Junjie, who pretended to look away immediately.
The three turned around as they could not lay their eyes on the coward!
At that moment, the girl diverted her attention suddenly after glancing at the three, and she kept a close watch on He Bai and strode over.
Niu Junjie halted to stare at He Bai.
Wang Hu and Chen Jie stayed three feet away from He Bai at once.
He Bai: “???”
The pretty tall girl strode to He Bai and fixed her eyes upon him for a few seconds. Then she held out her hand excitedly and blushed. “Hello, my name is Zheng Ya, a junior in Department of Chinese. Nice to meet you.”
Avoiding Niu Junjie’’s terrible gaze at the moment, He Bai held her hand and loosened within a second. He was all at sea, “Hello, I’m He Bai, a junior in Department of Journalism. May I ask you…” Obviously, he hazed that it never happened in his last life. What was going on now?
“Oh, sorry, I’m so excited.” Zheng Ya raised hand to cover her face out of embarrassment, then she made an outspoken narration, “I am a fan of you who’s fond of your photographs very much. I heard that you and Junjie are roommates, so … I’d like to take the liberty of inviting you to take wedding photos for my brother. Thanks in advance!”
“… Wedding photos?” A fan? Everything changed so fast that He Bai was unable to keep pace with.
Wang Hu and Chen Jie were distracted. They went back to He Bai when they saw things went well.
So did Niu Junjie, whose murderous look was replaced by doubts. “XiaoYa, hadn’t your brother’s wedding photo taken two months ago??”
Instead of having a talk at the playground, they found a tea bar outside the school and got a box there for better communication.
“Excuse me, I was being abrupt just now.” Zheng Ya made an apology once again and explained in detail.
Zheng Lei, Zheng Ya’s elder brother, had a fiancée who had grown up with him together. After eight years of dating, they finally decided to get married this year. However, life was not all roses and butterflies that everything was going on smoothly except the wedding photos.
“My sister-in-law fell ill last year. She put on dozens of pounds because of taking medicine, which made her felt so vulnerable that she wanted to break up with my brother. As you see, my brother would never ever leave her alone. In order to ease her, he discussed with family and set a wedding date in this year.” Zheng Ya felt a little embarrassed, she glanced at He Bai, and continued, “My sister-in-law had been losing weight, whereas the outcomes were not that ideal. Although she was a little thinner when taking the wedding photos, she was still … Just two months ago, a distant uncle of my sister-in-law brought an old doctor back and promised that as long as she was nursed by the doctor, she would definitely lose weight. Everyone didn’t take it seriously at all until something marvelous happened that my sister-in-law finally got back into shape.”
Chen Jie nodded and said, “Your sister-in-law got fat on pills, that’s why it’s useless to lose weight only but she needs to recuperate from the inside.”
“Exactly.” Zheng Ya relieved a bit as they got what she meant to, she looked at He Bai and requested, “My brother fixed the wedding date on the day of proposing to my sister-in-law, that is, the end of this month. Now that my sister-in-law was back in shape, she’s dying for rephotographing the wedding photos while she doesn’t have too much time. You know, marriage is once-in-a-lifetime. My sister-in-law once chitchatted with me that she appreciated your elf series very much and would like to make an appointment with you once she got thinner, so I … ”
“So you’re not my fan but your sister-in-law is?” He Bai answered with a smile and saw Zheng Ya was ill at ease. He then pacified, “You are Junjie’s friend. Naturally, you are my friend. I should surely undertake my friend’s request.”
“Really?” Zheng Ya was pleasantly surprised that things would go so smoothly. She stammered. “I, I heard that you didn’t take any outside tasks unless they are Yi Ka related. I assumed… Thank you very much anyway. Thank you!”
“You shouldn’t regard me as an outsider. I’ve left Yi Ka earlier this month, thus it doesn’t matter if I take some outside tasks.” He Bai explained, and then said, “You have helped Junjie out, who has cared for me all the time. It’s a pleasure for me that I can return a favor now. You can thank Junjie if you really want to.”
Zheng Ya was still carried away by his promise and she just looked sideways at Niu Junjie with eyes filled with gratitude.
Niu Junjie was so elated that he couldn’t help to giving He Bai a thumbs-up under the table.
He Bai cracked a smile and took a sip of tea, surrounded by both success and fame.
As night fell, He Bai was lying in bed. He pulled out his cell phone and opened the text message page, intending to text Di Qiuhe.
He Bai: What are you bustling about?
No response.
He took a look at the time while the shooting intension of the crew and the chanceful Dong Ni crossed his mind. Then he frowned for worrying and texted again.
He Bai: Text me when you’re free. Have a good rest.
After that, he put down the phone, closed his eyes to sleep. Then he opened his eyes half a minute later. He couldn’t help getting his cell phone again and continued typing.
He Bai: I have basically settled the matter of being a staff of crew in my winter vacation. But the exact date is still up in the air.
He Bai: Sleep early and have a good night.
No response as always, he put down the phone again and sighed.
He worried about Childish Di day and night so much as a father did to a son that he would surely be prematurely senile.
He was just about to close his eyes, the phone beside the pillow vibrated wildly.
He held up his cell phone sideways and saw a familiar number lightening out on the screen. He got it through and asked, “Finished?”
“Pup, do you miss me?”
There came a familiar soft voice and tone of lure.
He Bai didn’t resist wearing on his supercilious look and snorted, “It’s far better to think about what’s for breakfast tomorrow than miss you.”
