C195 (1/2)

On the way back to Green Jade Bay, the sky gradually darkened and the streets were lit up with neon lights. They reflected an intoxicated world, with large advertising screens displaying all sorts of novel and novel advertisements.

On the brightly lit streets, the Valentine's Day advertisements were naturally the most numerous.

Looking at the date on the screen, Ye Yanxi couldn't help but be shocked. So it was actually going to be Valentine's Day tomorrow.

Last time when she and He Chuyan saw those Valentine's Day advertisements, the two of them had been wandering aimlessly in the streets. At that time, she had been looking forward to seeing Xiao Yu at dawn.

Now that she had returned to Blue Jade Bay, tomorrow would be the seventh birthday. Could she be considered satisfied with her wish? It could be considered the first Valentine's Day that she and Xiao Yu had spent together.

Just as she was happily thinking about what to do tomorrow, Xu Bei, who was in the driver's seat, suddenly called out to her.

”Miss Ye.” For some reason, Ye Yanxi felt that Xu Bei's voice was a bit unnatural.

She was surprised and asked, ”Big brother Xu, what's wrong?”

”That's right...” Xu Bei said hesitantly, ”About that... Tomorrow... Isn't it just the Double Seventh Festival? ”

Hearing him say this, Ye Yan Xi began to understand a little. According to her understanding, Xu Bei also had a girlfriend, so he wanted to spend Valentine's Day with his girlfriend on the Double Seventh Festival, right?

After realizing what had happened, she looked at Xu Bei's hesitant appearance, and immediately helped Xu Bei to finish his words. With a smile, she said, ”You want to spend tomorrow with your girlfriend, right?”

Hearing this, Xu Bei glanced at the rearview mirror somewhat embarrassedly, ”My girlfriend said she would rest tomorrow, so I thought I could take half a day off, but I can still take half a day's work in the morning.”

After a pause, Xu Bei said with some difficulty: ”But the CEO...”

”I understand what you mean. The CEO isn't such a tyrannical and unreasonable person, right? How about this, I'll tell him that after arriving at the company in the morning, he'll just leave in the afternoon.” Ye Yanxi suggested.

”Really?” Xu Bei's tone was immediately filled with joy, ”Then thank you, Miss Ye.”

”It's just a small matter. Everyone wants to spend Valentine's Day tomorrow with their other half. That's understandable.” Ye Yan Xi was also infected with his joy and began to laugh. Moreover, Xu Bei was a good person, so she was happy to help himself.

The bright street lights poured into the dim car. Ye Yan Xi was just able to see the blush on Xu Bei's face, so she must be very happy.

”Where are you going to take your girlfriend tomorrow?” Ye Yan Xi curiously asked.

Speaking of this, Xu Bei immediately felt a surge of joy and relaxed. ”She kept making a ruckus about going to an amusement park to ride the roller coaster, so I planned to take her there to play for a while, then go shopping and watch a movie at night.”

This was what every couple would do, right? They would take a roller coaster ride, go shopping, and watch a movie together. As long as they were doing it together, they would feel that it was romantic no matter what.

However, for a busy person like Xiao Yu, it would be hard to find time for this sort of thing.

Thinking of this, Ye Yanxi's eyes dimmed. She said with a bit of envy, ”That's great. If you two can spend the holidays together, your girlfriend will definitely be very happy.”

When Xu Bei heard the disappointment in Ye Yanxi's words, he couldn't help but feel that he had said something wrong and had forgotten everything in his happiness.

He immediately explained, ”Miss Ye, the CEO has been rather busy recently, so...”

”I know.” Ye Yanxi smiled, ”You don't have to comfort me, I don't blame you.”

Maybe their Valentine's Day was working in the same building.

However, it was still much better than the couples that separated the two places. In any case, they would still be able to see each other often, Ye Yanxi consoled herself in her heart.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the car wasn't right, Xu Bei didn't say anything more and continued to talk. He estimated that Ye Yan Xi was once again in a bad mood.

After arriving at Qingyu Bay, Xu Bei was still worried and told Ye Yanxi before he left, ”Miss Ye, I'll leave the matter of me taking leave tomorrow to you.”

”Don't worry, I won't forget.” Ye Yanxi smiled as she responded, and then she took the elevator up to the second floor.

Huge posters were placed inside the elevator as well as advertising campaigns for the nearby shopping mall to promote Valentine's Day. There was even an amusement park, where couples were priced at half price tomorrow.

Looking at the colorful poster, Ye Yanxi felt a bit disappointed in her heart.

Even though she knew Xiao Yu was always busy and wouldn't have the time to accompany her … Perhaps it was because he didn't care if tomorrow was the Double Seventh Festival. Thinking of this, Ye Yanxi felt a sense of loss in her heart. To spend Valentine's Day with someone she loved … this was also something that every woman looked forward to.

When she got to the front of the apartment, she took a deep breath and cleaned up the mess.

There was no use thinking about it. The more expectations one had, the greater the disappointment.

When he opened the door, the room was as dark as ever. Xiao Yu was probably still busy at the moment, and hadn't come back yet.

Standing at the door, Ye Yanxi only felt very cold. Thus, she sent Xiao Yu a text message asking if he was still busy. Right after sending the message, Xiao Yu called.

”He went back?”
