284 Dinner by Eigh (1/2)

''Yeah, the doctor says no rigorous exercise for one month to know if the operation was successful. ''

''One month? One month is so long! What are we going to be doing till then?''

Liu Wei chuckled, ''we can cuddle? And besides, you'll be too busy to be thinking of sex, for now, let's go take a shower. ''

He pecked her on the lips for the last time, before lifting her off the ground and carrying her bridal style upstairs.

…\

By Monday, Xin Yong's single was out. It was as amazing as everyone had expected, and before the week ran out she was already having great sales.

''You didn't tell me you were performing at the event? ''

Liling asked, as they sat to eat after the day's work.

''Which? ''

''Chairman Xi's birthday, how did you know him? ''

Liling asked, creasing her brows as she chewed on her food.

''Oh, i was introduced by my manager, so after 'someone you loved' he says I'll perform in the birthday party. ''

Xin Yong replied as though it wasn't a big deal.

''And you agreed? ''

Xin Yong was silent for two seconds; ''Yeah, it's a great exposure, why won't I? ''

Liling sighed; she had thought that after the time they spent together at the hospital, she would have changed her mind about Jin Yue.

''Have you heard of Chairman Xi and his escapades with women? What if he's interested in you? ''

Xin Yong burped; ''Come on! Liling you can't be serious, He's a fat old man and he was with a lady when we met, he just liked my voice or maybe he is in good terms with my manager. Besides, I'm a single beautiful lady; this party is the perfect avenue to get acquainted with rich and handsome bourgeoisies, don't you think? ''

Liling was quiet for a little while; ''Have you spoken with Jin Yue? ''

When Xin Yong heard her question, a smirk appeared on her face. She knew that Liling had been like that all the while because of Jin Yue. Clearing her throat, she continued;

''I wanted to talk to him tomorrow, but the birthday party came up and I have to prepare, so maybe after the party, I'll talk to him. ''

''Xin Yong, are you really not changing your mind about him? Won't you think about it? ''

Xin Yong wiped her lips with a serviette; ''I have thought about it. You know, last time we talked, I no longer felt hurt, which means that I'm healing and ready to move on. So I don't think there's anything I should think about, hey, Liling, why are we talking about Jin Yue? Are you going to check out the dresses or not? ''

Xin Yong said, remembering that they were going to check out some dinner gowns, or rather wanting to change the topic entirely.

…

''Xin Yong, it's been a long time, your performance was splendid! I didn't know your voice was this good?''

Richen, who had a man's hand around her waist, commented with a sly smile.

To think that Richen had a penchant for rejected items!

''Oh it's a pleasure, and this is…''

She said, pretending not to know who Su Min was;

''I'm Su Min; it's been a while, Liling. ''

Su Min said with a small smirk, his eyes fixated on her; Liling could have acted coy but she wanted to save Richen some face, besides, she had no business with Su Min.

''Yeah, it's been a while.''

She replied, glancing at him before turning around to search for Liu Wei.
