Suddenly, a sentence brought Pao Mei back.
“Ah! I remember where I’ve seen you before! No wonder I always felt you looked familiar.” Xiao Yao raised her voice.
“Where?” Pao Mei glanced over, internally sneering. What’s so special about that? With a face like hers, of course people would remember her at a glance.
“In Director Shao’s wallet.” Xiao Yao nodded firmly.
“Shao… what did you say?”
“That’s right, I remember clearly. The photo in Director Shao’s wallet was of you! Once when he asked me to help find a business card, I saw it. Besides your photo, there was another one – a boy holding a baby…” Xiao Yao smiled, “That baby’s nude photo was really cute, all naked, white and chubby.”
Pao Mei’s confident expression began to crumble…
“Miss Su, are you okay?” Xiao Yao was scared; it seemed similar to her father’s angina symptoms. Just as she was about to show concern, she heard a familiar call:
“Yao!”
The familiar voice made her quickly turn, seeing the energetic figure at the door. Her gaze heated up, her voice choked: “Stone…”
“I’m back…” The man’s eyes could no longer see anyone else.
“Stop!” “Someone else” spoke up!
Pao Mei jumped between the two bodies about to embrace, grinding her teeth and hissing: “Listen well! Before I step out that door, neither of you is allowed to move!” Her high-heeled dance shoes began to float outward.
Suddenly, Pao Mei slammed on the brakes.
She turned and glared at the two bodies already clinging together, took a breath. “Before I take care of you two dogs, I can give you a chance to find a scapegoat.”
“Scapegoat? Who?” Xiao Yao hid behind the man, asked.
“Shao, Zun! Shao, Da, Tou!” Pao Mei said each word deliberately. “Tell me! Where is he now?”
“You want to find Director Shao? Let me think if he has any plans tonight… Oh, right, he’s having dinner with Miss Lin from Maoyang—hey!” Before Xiao Yao could finish, Pao Mei had already turned to leave.
“Don’t call, she won’t come back,” Jue Qing held her tighter.
“But I remembered wrong, Director Shao is meeting Miss He from Lilixin Enterprise.”
“No difference, all the same.” Jue Qing whispered intimately in her ear: “Are you planning to continue discussing this topic?”
Xiao Yao laughed awkwardly, just about to say something when her lips were immediately occupied.
Hmm…” The unspoken longing is more eloquent than words.
Lovers ultimately becoming partners is always the most beautiful ending.
However, for Yu Qing and Xiao Yao, the situation might be somewhat complicated.
Setting aside other factors, they would still need to obtain the approval of Xiao’s elderly parents.
But events unfolded unexpectedly.
Besides insisting that Yu Qing must first clarify his entanglement with the Su family, Xiao’s elderly parents surprisingly unanimously approved the marriage, even repeatedly urging them on – truly shocking everyone.
This was actually thanks to Zhima’s “big mouth”, with a single “home run” revealing all their unmentionable affairs, forcing Xiao’s parents to “read the situation” and insist they quickly march to the altar.
“Fine, they can decide the date. I’ll take you to try on wedding dresses sometime,” Yu Qing agreed readily.
“How could that work? Are you crazy?” Xiao Yao exclaimed.
The translation continues in this manner, maintaining the original narrative style and tone, preserving character dialogue and emotional nuances.
Hmm.” Xiao Yao nodded. “Get to the point.”
“The key point is that I told her that if no one wants her, for the sake of her friend’s happiness, I’m willing to sacrifice myself and reluctantly marry her.”
Wow! How bold!
Xiao Yao hurriedly looked over Shao Zun… hmm, all limbs still intact. She could only ask directly: “This time… nothing flew over?”
“Yes, a vehicle.”
“Wow! She tried to hit you with a car?”
“Bah! Let her drive a tractor, would you?” Shao Zun irritably blocked Xiao Yao’s words, then reluctantly continued: “This time it was an ambulance flying over – who knew she would get so excited after hearing my words that she almost choked on a piece of meat.”
Hmm… huh… haha! Hahaha! This time Xiao Yao must laugh out loud, or she’d suffer internal injuries!
“What are you doing with that suitcase?” Ju Qing was the most clear-headed person on the scene.
“Let’s go.”
“Go? Where to?”
“Anywhere, just don’t let that woman find me! You don’t know she declared in the hospital that she’ll definitely cancel our engagement, but still wants me to keep my word… No, no, I can’t stay, that woman is serious.”
Oh, looks like there’s a good show to watch! Ju Qing and Xiao Yao exchanged a glance.
Looking at Shao Zun’s hurried back, Xiao Yao couldn’t help but ask: “Can he really escape?”
“Maybe. It depends on the heart. If the heart can’t be taken away, it doesn’t matter where the person goes.”
Just like them? Xiao Yao leaned against him, revealing a sweet and satisfied smile.
As long as two hearts are tightly connected, she believes that no matter what difficulties they face, they will be fearless!
