Contractual Marriage: We’re Meant to Be Together

127. Who was He Waiting for?

Translator: 怀旧

“No,” Raising his hand, Song Huaiqi wanted to touch Yan Chuyang’s chin. But with his expression changed, Yan Chuyang evaded the hand with a tilt of his head.

Song Huaiqi was not annoyed about it. He just lowered his hand and smiled, saying, “I will always be your reserve.”

Hearing his words, Yan Chuyang’s heart was touched. Indeed, since he was in university, Song Huaiqi had always been supporting him like a brother. Apart from Wei Qing, Song Huaiqi should have the biggest influence on him.

“Senior,” Lowering his head, Yan Chuyang glanced at his watch again and said apologetically, “I’m in a hurry. I’ll wait for you here. Can you go upstairs to get your things now?”

Song Huaiqi nodded, raised his hand to untie the seat belt for Yan Chuyang and said, “If you feel bored, get out and take a walk.”

“Okay,” Yan Chuyang answered.

Then Song Huaiqi opened the door and stepped into the villa.

Yan Chuyang looked out of the car window, bored.

Song Huaiqi’s house was different from Wei Qing’s. He lived in a prosperous area, close to the highway and business district, and it was the nearest villa to the centre of Song City.

While Wei Qing’s house was in the suburb far away from the city center. Although the traffic there wasn’t as convenient as here, it was more peaceful and quiet. This must have something to do with their own personality. No matter when, Wei Qing seemed always put the quality of life first.

Yan Chuyang exhaled a long breath, opened the door and got out of the car, leaning against the car window and waiting for Song Huaiqi.

After sitting for more than half an hour, he felt a little stuffy.

“Wei Qing, can’t you have lunch here before leaving?”

Shen Shimin rushed out of the living room in her high heels and stared at the man in front of her.

Wei Qing put on his shoes at the entrance and turned to say, “Sorry, I’m tied up today.”

The woman frowned anxiously and continued, “But today is a special day. It’s your birthday, I…”

“Enough,” Wei Qing interrupted her and said in a cold voice, “If I had known that you asked me here for this ridiculous reason, I wouldn’t have come anyway.”

“Wei Qing…” Shen Shimin was about to continue her explanation, but Wei Qing cut her off.

“You should know,” he said with a stern expression, “I hate someone mentioning the word ‘birthday’ in front of me.”

“Then we won’t celebrate the birthday!” Shen Shimin said anxiously, “If you don’t want to celebrate your birthday, you can treat this dinner as a gathering or a date for us, will you?”

Wei Qing sighed, saying, “Shen Shimin, you’re so smart, but why don’t you understand what I said? If you hadn’t lied to me about your daughter having a fever, I wouldn’t have come here.”

“But Selina really has a fever,” Shen Shimin explained anxiously.

“Then where’s your daughter?” Wei Qing asked.

With her eyes flashed, Shen Shimin lowered her eyes guiltily and said, “She, she had a bad fever, so I sent her to the hospital.”

“Huh,” Wei Qing smirked, shaking his head, “As a mother, what you have to do now is to look after your daughter in the hospital, not be entangled with me.”

Then Wei Qing turned around and walked out of the living room without hesitation.

Shen Shimin froze. She didn’t expect Wei Qing to be so unkind in talking to her now.

After a while, Shen Shimin snapped back to her senses. Biting her lip awkwardly, she bolted out. She couldn’t give up Wei Qing just because of this little defeat.

“Wei Qing!” She called.

She thought Wei Qing would get into the car directly, but to her surprise, Wei Qing stood still at the door and didn’t walk to the car.

Shen Shimin was delighted, she quickly went over and carefully looked at Wei Qing’s profile, asking, “Wei Qing, don’t you want to leave?”

Wei Qing didn’t say anything but stared into the distance.

Shen Shimin was stunned and followed his line of sight.

“Uhh?” She frowned and asked in astonishment, “Well…it’s Yan Chuyang, right? Why is he here?”

Turning his head, Wei Qing asked in a heavy voice, “Do you know whose car Yan Chuyang is leaning on and who lives in the villa he is looking at now? Do you know?”

Shen Shimin paused and then replied, shaking her head, “I just came back from abroad. I moved here a few days ago and I’m not very familiar with the nearby residents.”

“Haven’t you even seen the person who lives in the villa before?” Wei Qing continued.

“I may have seen him before, but I have no idea what his name is,” Shen Shimin answered.

Wei Qing took a long breath, filled with anger.

He wondered whom Yan Chuyang was waiting for, looking so anxious.

He always knew that Yan Chuyang’s social circle was very simple. Except for his classmates and friends, Wei Yuan was the only one who kept in touch with him. For a while, Wei Qing was afraid that there were bad people around Yan Chuyang; he even paid some private investigators to look into Yan Chuyang’s childhood experiences and friends.

Yan Chuyang was very simple, just as simple as he showed. Apart from his parents and his deceased grandmother, no one else had any intimate contact with him.

But how could he suddenly come to a stranger’s house and lean on someone’s car undefensively. Like a brat waiting for his lover, he frowned anxiously, looked at his watch from time to time and kept looking into the villa, full of anxiety and expectation.

Was the person he was waiting for very important to him?

Narrowing his eyes, Wei Qing suddenly thought of Yan Chuyang’s abnormal behaviors these days. He began to reject him from getting closer, said that he wanted to stay away from him, and also said that he wanted to temporarily stop their kiss agreement.

Somehow Yan Chuyang began to reject his intimacy.

But he wouldn’t have done that before. He had always been very obedient, even if he was unwilling or not feeling very well, he would still raise his head and let Wei Qing kiss him.

But now…

Did someone say something to him, or did he meet someone he liked better?

Wei Qing breathed faster, felt the pressure drop around him, and his eyes were horribly cold.

He didn’t speak, and Shen Shimin did not dare to speak. She just stood there with him watching, even though she didn’t know what he was looking at.

A few minutes later, Yan Chuyang, who had been lazily leaning against the car window, suddenly straightened his back and waved happily.
