“Our colleagues at our unit saw it and chuckled, because they knew it was fake. As long as it’s not excessive and doesn’t damage the unit’s image, we won’t bother clarifying.” 。To make such a small matter clear, it seems like you lack vision. 。 。As expected,
Song Jingye, who had no expression on his face, frowned and said in a cold voice: “I was too narrow-minded. ” 。This is obviously angry. 。Chen Ning tilted her head and leaned close to him, smiling cheekily, “Are you jealous, Uncle?” “No” 。”Uncle has the biggest perspective.” 。She said in a flattering tone. 。Song Jingye reached over with his right hand, pressed down on her head, and pushed her back into her own seat. “You’re driving, sit properly.” 。The voice is still cool. 。Chen Ling stopped explaining, after all, Song Jingye actually knew very well that she and Xu Haichen had nothing to do with each other. 。Passing by the mall where she bought milk tea last time, Chen Ling took the initiative to be nice: “I want to drink milk tea” 。Song Jingye then drove the car into the mall’s parking garage and went upstairs from there. 。As soon as they got off the car, Chen Ling walked back and took his arm. Song Jingye didn’t say anything, but he slowed down to match her pace. 。
I found the bubble tea shop quickly this time and bought a cup. It was already noon, so I went upstairs to find a family-friendly, quiet restaurant for lunch. 。Chen Ning smiled all the way, in a good mood. 。Just looking at him, bubbles popped up in my heart, I couldn’t help but smile. 。
This was the most relaxed day they’d ever had since actually being together. 。Song Jingye saw her like this, and the expression on his face softened. This girl was really too naive, so foolishly… 。
Before the food arrived, Chen Ning passed her milk tea to him: “Uncle, would you like a sip?” 。”
He has to drink it even if he doesn’t want to, the straw is already at his lips.” 。He then lowered his head and took a sip. The milk tea was overly sweet. 。
Chen Ling said she didn’t really like drinking either, she was just doing it for the atmosphere. 。As the dishes arrived, the two chatted over their meal. It was then that Song Jingye brought up Xu Haichen: “I know you guys are fine, but you need to understand, you’re in the same unit. If you’re too close, people will assume you’re tied together. It can be a double-edged sword for both of you.” 。”
Chen Ling was taken aback. She had never thought of it this way, not from university to now, their interactions were natural and effortless” 。Of course, it’s up to you whether you truly trust each other or are willing to take the risks that might come with this friendship in the future. 。”Song Jingye’s words might sound harsh, even cold and ruthless, but he wanted her to understand that everything, once it exceeds a certain point, has the potential to become dangerous. Ultimately, it depends on whether you are willing to take that risk.” 。Of course, he also had selfish motives. No man would want to see his girlfriend get too close to another man. 。Chen Ling understood what he meant, but she felt that people weren’t just work machines. They had warmth and sincerity. If they only interacted after weighing the pros and cons, it would be too utilitarian. 。She has her convictions, but indeed, as he said, in private matters, one should be more cautious, moderation is important. 。After finishing their meal, they walked hand-in-hand out of the restaurant. Next to the escalator was a jewelry store. Song Jingye’s mind wandered for a moment and he brought her inside. 。”What are you doing?” Chen Ling realized he was going to buy something for her, and her heart skipped a beat. Her gaze darted from the display case filled with rings. 。。He asked for her input, but ultimately chose a necklace for her, “How about this one?”It was a simple design: a white gold chain with a round pendant, adorned with a few small diamonds. He knew she preferred understated elegance, so the price wasn’t exorbitant either, just over ten thousand dollars. 。”Like it, try it on first” 。Chen Ling didn’t fuss as much since they started dating, so she didn’t refuse and let the shop assistant get it out for her to try on. 。Song Jingye took the necklace and stood behind her, smoothing the hair that had fallen onto her neck. His fingertips grazed her skin, causing her to instinctively flinch away. He caught her shoulders in his hands, holding her still. 。”I’ll do it myself” 。Chen Ling gathered all her hair and held it in her hand, revealing her fair and slender neck. Song Jingye bent slightly to put on… 。
The simple design sits gracefully at the collarbone, creating a refined and elegant look. It adds a touch of playfulness and vitality to one’s appearance. 。Then this >>> Let me know if you’d like me to translate anything else! ?。”Song Jingye was satisfied and turned to settle the bill.” 。
Chen Ling also liked it very much, looking at herself in the mirror repeatedly, liking it more and more. 。Song Jingye finished paying the bill and turned around to see her looking in the mirror, a smile on her face. It was a sweet smile, sweeter than the milk tea they had just enjoyed. 。
“Gone” 。He came over and put his arm around her shoulders. 。At the escalator, he stood below her, she behind him. They were almost the same height. 。Chen Ning had a sudden impulse. He used his hand to mess up his hair and glared at her, she stifled a laugh and pretended to look elsewhere. 。While he turned around, she playfully messed with his hair again. It was childish, yet she enjoyed it immensely. 。Song Jingye didn’t turn back, but suddenly grabbed her hands behind his waist, pinning them there accurately. Chen Ning almost bumped into his back. She whispered in his ear: “No fighting on the escalator.” 。Just as he was saying that, they arrived. He turned around and immediately lifted her to the ground, steadied her. 。Both of them were in a great mood, and even ordinary small interactions could bring them joy for a while. By the time they returned to his place, it was past two o’clock in the afternoon. They decided to take a nap and then go eat at their squad leader’s restaurant later. 。She lay in bed, her fingers lightly tracing the pendant at her collarbone, a feeling of sweet contentment washing over her. 。Thinking back to that time in the store, she thought he was going to buy a ring. But come to think of it, if he really wanted to buy a ring, he wouldn’t be so hasty. 。Song Jingye didn’t have the habit of taking a nap, and she saw her constantly fiddling with the pendant, “Do you like it that much?”
“Of course I do” 。Whatever he gives me, I like it. 。Song Jingye leaned down and kissed her, his movements a little restless, but he held back. “I have to leave tomorrow night,” he said. “There’s still work I need to finish in the southwest.” 。”Chen Ling only knew after listening that he had rushed back especially to accompany her for two days. She felt touched and reluctant, leaning into his arms: “When will you be back?”
“I can come back for a few days of rest in between…” 。It means that I will be working there for the near future and won’t be able to come back anytime soon. 。Then I’ll come see you on the weekend. 。”good 。We had dinner at the monitor’s place in the evening. The monitor and Zheng Ke showered her with all sorts of compliments, Song Jingye listened quietly as always, occasionally smiling faintly, with a sense of pride. He only spoke when it was almost time to leave, “I won’t be in Beijing recently, take good care of yourselves.” 。”The monitor: “We’re Xiaoning’s relatives, do we still need you to explain?” 。”That’s right, the class monitor and my brother have both been really good to me.” 。”
