BXBX NOVEL Chapter 51 - 51: 051 Lovely
Ming Jing was still on the phone with Tao Xingxing.
“Who is this… acting so arrogant? I can also say I’m Qu Feitai’s girlfriend. Bragging doesn’t cost a dime.”
Bai Ziyan squinted, pointing at the phone, “Hey, little girl, Master Bai and Qu Feitai almost had a contract marriage. If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m a man… Heh, do you love-struck ladies even stand a chance?”
“Ming Jing, where did you meet such a mental case? Hurry up and take your medicine, kid. You’re seriously ill.”
Ming Jing looked at Bai Ziyan with a smile.
Bai Ziyan put his hands on his hips, “You little girl, still wet behind the ears, what do you know? Fine, you want to see Qu Feitai’s concert? Master Bai can make a call and get you a photo and handshake with Qu Feitai. But when the time comes, you have to kneel down and call me grandpa. How about that?” “I spit on you! Take your medicine! Don’t use my idol to make yourself happy.”
Bai Ziyan had never been so humiliated in his life. He laughed in anger, took out his cell phone, and scrolled through his contacts.
“You don’t believe me, do you? Today I’ll make you cry out for your grandpa.”
He dialed the number marked as Xiao Qu’er, sweat beading on his forehead as he fanned his free hand at his head.
“The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please leave a message after the beep…”
“Fuck!” Bai Ziyan cursed silently.
From Ming Jing’s phone, Tao Xingxing’s exaggerated laughter could be heard. “Stop pretending. Qu Feitai couldn’t possibly have a thick-skinned friend like you. Are you usually a scammer, Ming Jing? Keep your eyes open, and don’t be fooled by him!”
Ming Jing laughed, “Don’t you think it’s cute?”
Bai Ziyan’s handsome face visibly cracked. “Cute?”
Tao Xingxing laughed, “Poor thing, nobody loves you. Enough, I’ve got guests at my place. We probably can’t meet for lunch. Let’s change it to evening, and I’ll contact you then.”
After they hung up, Bai Ziyan angrily asked, “Who exactly is that girl? I’ll tear her mouth apart for laughing at me.”
Ming Jing laughed and said, “The weather is hot, people are easily irritable. The liver stores the soul and manifests as anger. The yang within the yin element, connected to the energy of spring. Young man, where do you get so much anger from?”
She picked up the teapot from the tray, washed the tea, and poured it, her movements smooth and graceful.
Her slender jade-like fingers picked up a cup of tea and set it in front of Bai Ziyan, “Have some tea to cool down.”
The young girl sat quietly on the sofa, wearing a simple white long dress. She was very thin, and the dress seemed empty on her body. Her back straight, her neck long and elegant, she lowered her head slightly, her skin snow-white and dark eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, pure beauty resembling the autumn moon.
In her presence, one would never see any negative emotions, like the sea or the sky, embracing everything and calmly observing the world.
He suddenly remembered many years ago when he went to Jingdu’s Daxiangguo Temple with his mother, where the statue of the Guanyin was enshrined. She always looked at the world with compassion and tolerance, the love and separation, anger, delusion, greed, and desire in the eyes of the Bodhisattva were nothing but illusions and dreams of life.
Many years later, the girl in front of him gave him the same feeling.
“Miss, Mr. Bai, here are some snacks made by Madam Zhou.” Uncle Wen walked over and placed the snacks on the tea table, sneakily glancing at Bai Ziyan.
“Mr. Bai, based on your accent, are you from Jingdu?” Uncle Wen casually asked.
Bai Ziyan took a bite of the snack and it tasted good, “Yes.”
Heart racing, Uncle Wen thought to himself, how many Bai families could there be in Jingdu? They were all illustrious; the Zhus had no chance to be on their level.
Wasn’t this young master being…?
As his thoughts raced, Uncle Wen’s gaze swept over Ming Jing.
Young Master Bai seemed to get along well with Miss Ming Jing, first Madam Jiang, and now Young Master Bai. Miss Ming Jing didn’t make a sound, but she had quite the social skills.
He needed to discuss this with the madam. After all, they already had a lesson from before, and Miss Ming Jing was not someone easily manipulated.
After Uncle Wen left, he quietly went upstairs and knocked on Lin Qing’s door.
“Bored, aren’t you? How about we go horse riding? I’ll teach you. Call Charles
Gao and Jiang Jinchen, and if you have any sisters, bring them along.”
Ming Jing raised an eyebrow, “Horse riding?”
Bai Ziyan nodded in boredom, “I heard there’s a new horse farm in Jiangzhou. The ‘star’ horse Violent Wind can’t be tamed by anyone. I want to see just how untamable it is.”
Ming Jing stood up, “Give me a moment to change my clothes.”
Bai Ziyan grumbled, “Girls are always so troublesome when going out.”
Xiao Ying carefully added tea for Bai Ziyan and asked curiously, “Mr. Bai, are you our miss’s friend?”
Bai Ziyan sat on the sofa with his legs crossed on the tea table, his whole body boneless like a Lima bean. He sneered, “What, your miss can’t have a handsome friend like me?”
“No, no, you misunderstand. I’m just happy for our miss that she could have a friend like you, Mr. Bai, who’s so witty and humorous. Our miss had a hard time in the past, and she’s very introverted. I’m really grateful that you can make our miss laugh and accompany her.”
“You little girl, you worry too much.”
Bai Ziyan’s phone suddenly rang, and he picked it up to take a look.
Xiao Qu sent a message on WeChat: Itching again?
Bai Ziyan sent a little man waving a knife emoji: You’re so busy ignoring Master Bai’s calls?
Xiao Qu: Haha, I, this young master, have a lot on my plate every day. What kind of onion are you?
Bai Ziyan: The man your Qu family can never get.
Xiao Qu: Bleh…
Xiao Qu: Where are you hanging out? Let big brother tighten your skin for you. Bai Ziyan: Jiangzhou is a place of talented people and beautiful women. I don’t want to leave once I’m here.
Xiao Qu: You little lecher, don’t harass innocent women, be careful of retribution.
Bai Ziyan: When it comes to troublemaking, compared to you, Young Master Qu, I’m just a small-time sorcerer. You’ve ruined the lives of millions of girls, millions! What a scumbag.
Xiao Qu: Ah, I’m too charming, can’t help it, and it troubles me as well.
Bai Ziyan: [Angry] Get lost.
Xiao Qu: Going to practice dancing now, we’ll settle this when I get back to Jingdu. Bye-
Bai Ziyan: Wait, I haven’t gotten to the main point yet.
“Fuck, Qu Feitai you son of a bitch, dare to block me….!”
