Chapter 193 Showing off Wealth (1/2)

”I will always be your little Yezi.”

Xiao Bing just could not get these words out of his mind when walking in the park with Yezi by his side. Finally, an impulse got a hold of him. ”And I will always be your Brother Bing.”

”Yezi, no matter what will happen and who will come for you, you will always be mine.”

”Yezi, no matter how perilous the road ahead might be, you will always find me by your side.”

”I promise that there will be no more tragedies. No one can hurt my woman again.”

Xiao Bing opened his hand and felt helpless when he was fighting Lord Long several days ago. He suddenly felt extremely upset.

There were still two months before he could unseal his power. He had to be stronger within this period, otherwise how could he protect his women?

Xiao Bing suddenly thought of a good sparring partner—the mysterious Gao Fei.

”Brother Bing, let's go to the merry-go-round.”

”Okay.” Xiao Bing grinned and went over to it with Yezi.

While Xiao Bing and Yezi were enjoying their date, Liu Kexin was reading magazines in bed. She didn't have to work today. She had a good sleep and went back to her bed after she had her breakfast.

Liu Kexin spent Valentine's Day alone every year. Sometimes, she even forgot which day this holiday was because she never had a boyfriend, except for Xiao Bing, that fake boyfriend of hers.

Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door. Liu Kexin put the magazine aside and leaned on the bedside. ”I'm not sleeping. Please come in,” she said sweetly.

The door squeaked as the girl's mother opened it. She walked toward the bed while kindly smiling at her daughter. She put her daughter's hand on hers and grinned. ”Sweetie, you seemed to be worried these days. What happened? Are you having a quarrel with Xiao Bing?”

”No, that's impossible.” Liu Kexin shook her head immediately. ”Brother Bing is so kind to me. There is never a quarrel between us.”

Her mother grinned. ”I'm your mother. I can always tell if you are troubled by something. Besides, do you know what day this is?”

Liu Kexin shook her head. Actually, though she had never celebrated this day with others, she knew what day Valentine's Day was.

Every nurse that was on leave was supposed to attend a party this afternoon, and anyone who had a boyfriend was asked to bring him along. They even particularly reminded Liu Kexin to bring Xiao Bing with her. Because after what happened at that ball, Xiao Bing had become so popular in this hospital. However, Liu Kexin felt that she shouldn't always ask Xiao Bing to pretend to be her boyfriend. And out of fear that they would find out the truth, she decided not to go to the party.

Upon being asked about this matter, Liu Kexin became nervous. She intended to say that she didn't know, lest her mother have any doubt about their relationship. After all, she had never spent this day with a boy before.

The mother said worriedly, ”So, you two did have a quarrel. Even if you don't know when Valentine's Day is, at least your friends should know. So you haven't heard any of them mention this special day?”

Liu Kexin realized that things would be much more complicated if she said that she didn't know the day. She pouted. ”Mom, he and I had a plan for today. But he's just so busy with making lamian. Today, almost every restaurant is crowded with customers. I shouldn't stop him from making money for just a holiday.”

Liu Kexin's mother sighed. ”Indeed, men should attach importance to their career. But you're at the age of romance. If he chooses his work over you, I'm afraid that he will spend less and less time with you after you get married.”

”Mom, it's not a big deal. The two of us are great. You don't need to worry about us.”

”I hope so.” Liu Kexin's mother sighed while she stood up. She slowly walked to the door and whirled around. ”Anyway, you should know that Xiao Bing seems to be a decent man. But we don't want you to marry a man who chooses work over family. You should be more serious about this.”

Then the girl's mother took her leave. Liu Kexin bit her lips. She knew her mother was a discerning woman. She and Xiao Bing tried to make themselves seem like a lovely couple, but a woman's intuition is a peculiar thing. Liu Kexin surmised that her mother must have thought of something, since she and Brother Bing didn't hang out on this day.

The girl was contemplating. Her father was about to say no to this arranged marriage and she did not want any mishap at the time. She hesitated for quite a while and decided to call Xiao Bing.

”Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service. Please try your call again.”

”I assume that Brother Bing is on a date with his real girlfriend. Yezi will definitely not be happy with me if I call Brother Bing on Valentine's Day. He's always so nice to me. I can't bring any more troubles to Brother Bing.”
