Chapter 135: A Bold Conjecture
“Ring finger huh…”
Yun Xiangxiang looked at Song Mian smilingly and took out the ring that was in her left hand’s ring finger in front of Song Mian.
She changed her hand and extended the right one out. She wore the ring on her right hand’s ring finger, “En, the size is suitable.”
Wearing it on the left hand’s ring finger meant that she was married. Wearing it on the right hand’s ring finger meant that she was still unmarried.
Song Mian smiled softly and held her right hand. He kissed the edge of the ring, “This is just a weapon to protect yourself with.”
It was the incident at school last time that alerted Song Mian that Yun Xiangxiang needed a personal weapon.
No matter how powerful Song Qian and the others were, there were still places where they couldn’t reach.
“I know,” Yun Xiangxiang looked at it a few more times. “I like it very much. I’ll bring it wherever I go after this.”
Song Mian wouldn’t give her a wedding ring at this time. As for him putting it on her left hand, it was probably him teasing her on purpose.
Perhaps it was an indirect declaration. It was obvious when she would tase someone with her fingers curled and the thumb activated the mechanism.
The right hand’s movement would flow smoother than the left hand’s.
“It charges with solar energy. It will automatically turn the absorption off once its charge is full,” Song Mian added.
Yun Xiangxiang rubbed the ring lovingly. This stuff must have spent a lot of Song Mian’s energy.
“Did you finish all your business?” Yun Xiangxiang asked concernedly.
“I have finished all of this year’s business,” Song Mian held Yun Xiangxiang’s hand. “Does my girlfriend wish to celebrate the New Year with me?”
“I have to go home to have a reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve. I probably have to stay at home for a couple of days,” Yun Xiangxiang slightly regretted it.
Half a year had already passed since the last time she saw her parents. She missed them a lot. She would be busier after this. Her time with them would be even lesser. She wanted to be by their side as much as possible now.
“Even though I understand, I still feel a bit down,” Song Mian had a crestfallen tone.
Yun Xiangxiang cupped his face in her hands, “You’ll need to be underground for a couple of years. I’ll bring you home after two years.”
She still had two months before she would turn eighteen. At any rate, she could only bring Song Mian home when she was twenty. Her dad would explode on the spot otherwise.
After they go public, they could spend half the time at her home during New Year, and the other half at Song Mian’s home.
“Two years never felt this long to me before,” Song Mian sighed.
Yun Xiangxiang chuckled and turned to his back. She pushed him to the kitchen, “I’m hungry. Serve the dishes quickly, boyfriend.”
“You still need to wait for a while before the dishes are ready. I made some pre-meal snacks for you,” Song Mian took the snacks that he prepared out.
It was a plate of four crystal clear pastries.
It was light-yellow like jelly. Osmanthus petals bloomed in the middle of it.
They were a crystal-like deep purple. Their color changed from light to dark.
There were also those in red and light-pink. They were all rhombuses. It coincidentally formed a flower.
“It’s so pretty. I only recognize this as Osmanthus cake,” Yun Xiangxiang sat in front of the dining table, but she couldn’t bear to eat it.
She promptly picked her phone up and posted it on her wall.
It immediately attracted a lot of attention, especially the ladies. Han Jing and Sun Qiluo couldn’t help but express their wish to have it.
Only Li Xiangling and Song Meng knew that this was probably made by Yun Xiangxiang’s boyfriend.
Song Meng suddenly felt that she thought of something incredible. She didn’t care about how expensive overseas calls could be and directly called Yun Xiangxiang.
Yun Xiangxiang who was eating turned the loudspeaker on when she saw that the call was made by Song Meng.
Song Meng over there said in a shocked tone, “Xiangxiang, is your boyfriend Brother Wei?!”
*Cough…* Yun Xiangxiang started choking on the delicious pastries.
“Why are you so careless?” Song Mian immediately gave a cup of hot water to Yun Xiangxiang.
Song Meng heard a melodious male voice. She met He Wei before. She naturally recognized that this voice didn’t belong to He Wei.
Yun Xiangxiang also recovered and picked up the phone, “What nonsense are you thinking about?!”
“You can’t blame me for this. You said that you’re going to the Big Apple with He Wei for work…” said Song Meng feebly.
Song Meng was clear about whether Yun Xiangxiang knew how to make food. Even though the pastries this time were different from the last, this didn’t stop Song Meng from feeling that they were made by Yun Xiangxiang’s boyfriend. Her boyfriend even followed her overseas…
It was impossible for her not to think that way.
“My boyfriend is here too,” said Yun Xiangxiang angrily. “Don’t think about anything nonsensical. I’ll arrange a meetup with everyone after the Lunar New Year.”
Song Meng also knew that she was thinking too much and was in the wrong. She then whispered, “How old is your boyfriend?”
The reason she called Yun Xiangxiang so urgently to verify was because of the eighteen year gap between He Wei and Yun Xiangxiang.
He Wei was just a few years younger than Uncle Yun. As her bosom friend, she still needed to advise her.
Even though she worshipped He Wei, their gap was still enormous. It was still okay if she was a layman.
However, the thing here was that Yun Xiangxiang was an actress. He Wei was her agent. If the news leaked, wouldn’t Yun Xiangxiang be said to get to where she was through seducing He Wei?
Even if she couldn’t persuade her, she still needed to talk about the risks that they could encounter in the future to Yun Xiangxiang.
Yun Xiangxiang knew that Song Meng was concerned about her. Yun Xiangxiang said, “He’s not someone in the industry. He’s older than me by nine years. Brother Wei knows about this.”
“Oh, older by nine years. That’s okay then,” Song Meng could easily accept an age gap of within ten years. “I won’t disturb your sweet moment then.”
Song Meng hung up after she finished that.
Even though she was choked once, Yun Xiangxiang still couldn’t bear to waste them and finished the remaining pastries.
She knew that the purple ones were purple sweet potatoes, the red ones were red beans, and the pink ones were actually roses after she finished eating.
“Are you free on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year?” Yun Xiangxiang asked Song Mian. “I asked my girlfriends to meet you on that day.”
“I have time,” Song Mian nodded. “Where will it be?”
“Probably Beijing. I’ll arrive at the school earlier with them,” I have to spend some time with my boyfriend, right?
Yun Xiangxiang notified Li Xiangling and Song Meng in the WeChat group after Song Meng was okay with it. Both of them said, “You come here earlier to accompany your boyfriend, and us singles come to school earlier to sleep on cold beds?”
Yun Xiangxiang was very generous, “You can stay at my place. There are rooms now!”
Song Mian planned the house downstairs very well. There were eight bedrooms on the second floor. Coco and Zhou Jie were the only two people living there.
Since Yun Xiangxiang had arranged so well, both of them nodded in agreement due to their curiosity of Yun Xiangxiang’s boyfriend.
Yun Xiangxiang had the Kong Family’s Yipin Pot as dinner at Song Mian’s place. She hadn’t had it before, so she didn’t know whether it was authentic or not. However, it was so delicious, she wanted to bite off her own tongue.
She gazed at Song Mian’s busy figure after she finished eating. When she thought about being unable to accompany him during the New Year, she called He Wei to have him ask Song Yao to bring her luggage over. She would live here after this.
There were still several empty rooms in the little bungalow.
He Wei only reminded her to not toe the line and didn’t interfere with her freedom.
The biggest benefit in staying together with Song Mian was that she could enjoy a nutritious and delicious breakfast. She would feel energetic after eating it.
She sent the address to He Wei. He Wei would pick her up and send her to the launch conference of the new product.
