Chapter 294 – Sister Yu (2/2)
Yu Meixia looks at Dong Xuebing. “Qianqian will be happy to hear this. She misses you a lot.”
“What about you?” Dong Xuebing looks at Yu Meixia into her eyes. “Are you happy to see me here?”
Yu Meixia’s blushes and continue washing the dishes. She mumbled a soft reply. “Yes.”
“Haha… then I will come over on my off days.”
Dong Xuebing looks at Sister Yu’s back and thought about his women. Xie Huilan is very smart and does not show her concern easily. Qu Yunxuan’s gentleness is embedded within her, and her every movement shows it. But Yu Meixia’s gentleness is buried within her heart. She can touch Dong Xuebing every once in a while. Sigh… all three of them are perfect women. If only I can marry all of them.
After washing the dishes, Dong Xuebing and Yu Meixia returned to the living room to watch the news.
“I’m sorry about earlier.” Dong Xuebing apologized when Qianqian is not around. “I did not mean to scold you. I was only…”
Yu Meixia replied softly. “I understand. You said those things is because you are concerned about Qianqian.”
“Err… Are you angry with me?”
“No.”
Sister Yu got an inferiority complex and is an introvert. She will keep everything to herself, and Dong Xuebing does not know if she is still angry. He places his hands on her shoulders. “Is working at the supermarket tiring? Turn around. I will massage your shoulders.”
“No… You should not do this!” Yu Meixia panics.
Dong Xuebing replied gently. “You have always massaged me, and it’s my turn.”
“Please don’t bother. I… I am fine.”
“Hurry up and turn around!”
Yu Meixia quickly glanced towards the room and saw the door is shut, before turning her back towards Dong Xuebing. Dong Xuebing places his hands on her shoulders and starts pressing. He can feel the tension on her neck and shoulders. “Your neck is too stiff. You should rest at home. Why do you have to suffer at the supermarket? Didn’t I transfer money to you earlier this month? Have you received it?”
“… yes.”
“Then why didn’t you use it?”
“That is my salary for being your helper. I had not worked these few months, and I should not receive it.”
“Why are you so stubborn?”
Dong Xuebing had been avoiding Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian. Still, he did not forget about them and will transfer a few thousand RMB to Yu Meixia every month. But after hearing what Yu Meixia said, he knows she had pride and is not willing to use his money. That’s why she went to work as a cashier at the supermarket. Dong Xuebing sighed and did not mention about money again. “Just do whatever you want. Are your shoulders feeling better?”
“Yes. Xiao Bing. I am feeling better.”
“I had only massaged you for a while. How can you feel better, so fast?”
“I am afraid you will get tired. I am really fine, and you can stop.”
Dong Xuebing ignored her and continued with his massage. After pressing Yu Meixia’s shoulders and neck, he massaged her lower back. Sister Yu’s curvy body is softer than Qu Yunxuan and felt good to touch.
“Your body is so soft.” Dong Xuebing said.
Yu Meixia blushed. “I am old, and after I stopped working at the farms, I grew fat.”
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. “This is fat. This is curvy, and it is just right.”
“……” Yu Meixia did not say anything.
“Actually…” Dong Xuebing looks at Yu Meixia’s face. “You look better with your hair tied up in a bun.” Dong Xuebing likes to see her with her hair in a bun.
Yu Meixia mumbled a soft reply.
“Err… this is just a casual remark.” Dong Xuebing regretted after saying those things. He cursed himself in his heart. ‘Why can’t you change this habit? Sister Xie and Aunt Xuan have finally cooled down, and you are flirting with another woman again?! You are asking for trouble!’
Half an hour later.
“Alright. Move your shoulders and see if it is still tense.” Dong Xuebing removed his hands.
Yu Meixia moved her shoulders. “I feel lighter. Thank you. You are so good at massage.”
Dong Xuebing did not tell Yu Meixia that is was because he always massages Aunt Xuan. “Err… My mum has neck and shoulders pain, and I used to massage for her. After a while, I got better. Let me know if you have aching shoulders, and I will give you a massage.”
“No need. It will be too troublesome for you.”
“You don’t need to stand on ceremony with me.”
Yu Meixia poured a cup of tea for Dong Xuebing before going to the bathroom. She returned after a while and sat down awkwardly beside Dong Xuebing. At first, Dong Xuebing did not notice anything, but when he turns to look at her, he noticed Yu Meixia had changed her hairstyle. She had tied her hair into a bun.
Dong Xuebing was surprised. “Why did you change your hairstyle?”
“You said… I… look better with my hair tied up in a bum.” Yu Meixia’s face and neck turn red.
Dong Xuebing was touched and reached over to hold Yu Meixia’s hand. He was about to say something when the bedroom door opens suddenly.
Dong Xuebing quickly withdraws his hand, and Yu Meixia quickly straightens herself.
“Mum, Big Brother, I had finished my homework.” Yu Qianqian walks into the living room. “Can I watch TV for a while?”
Dong Xuebing laughed and waved Yu Qianqian over. “Come and sit here.”
“Ok!” Yu Qianqian sat down and hugged her mother’s arm.
Yu Meixia stopped blushing and stroked her daughter’s hair lovingly.
The TV is showing a newly built wildlife safari zoo on Fen Zhou City’s TV channel. The zoo is in the countryside of Fen Zhou City and is not far from Yan Tai County. This zoo claimed to be the biggest in Hebei Province. Of course, it meant the land area and not the number of animals. Here, Tourists can see a few tigers and monkeys roaming freely from the tour bus.
Yu Qianqian shouted excitedly. “It’s a tiger! It’s a big tiger!”
“You have never seen a tiger?” Dong Xuebing looks at her.
“We don’t have tigers in the mountains around our village and can only see it on TV.”
Yu Meixia stroked her daughter’s hair. “The mountains around our village are small, and there are no tigers. You can only find tigers in the zoo.”
Dong Xuebing was speechless. If there are tigers in the mountains beside your village, the villagers will be dinner for them.
“Mum…” Yu Qianqian’s eyes are still glued to the TV. “I want to see tigers, lions, and crocodiles.”
Yu Meixia replied. “You will not see crocodiles in winter, and this is not the season to see animals.”
“Ok…” Yu Qianqian was disappointed.
Dong Xuebing noticed it and said. “Who cares if it is winter or not. Since Qianqian wants to look at animals, we will go. Tomorrow is Saturday, and I am not working. Let’s go tomorrow!”
