【172】Bell
"It's quite possible." The colleague nodded in agreement, "But I can't tell it. The rumors are not that Jun Jinyan is indifferent, but that he is looking for women one after another. He is really fickle. It seems that the rumors are really unreliable."
"If you haven't really understood him, how can you know that he is fickle?" Xia Qi suddenly said.
"Hey, why are you so serious? I'm just talking casually." My colleague muttered, "Besides, people like Jun Jinyan are not something that ordinary people like us can understand!"
As the colleague said, he walked away. Xia Qi turned on the computer and calculated the cost of various decoration materials and labor costs on the computer.
Since Ye Nanqing asked her to leave until the renovation was completed, it is obvious that when the villa was decorating, she would be very busy and supervising the inspection and acceptance.
The other materials are easy to work with, but the more troublesome thing is the choice of bells. According to Xia Qi's idea, it should be to buy glass similar to wind chimes, but if it is spread out on a large area in the room, the glass is fragile.
It’s better to customize it, Xia Qi thought, anyway, Ye Nanqing didn’t care how much it cost to decorate.
After lunch, Xia Qi went to several customized processing stores of bells to see if the other party could take over. Because Xia Qi had many requirements for the appearance and safety of bells, none of the owners of several stores were willing to take on this job.
After walking out of the last store, Xia Qi rubbed her forehead and suddenly felt a little troubled. If the bell couldn't be handled, the entire decoration progress might be delayed. In that case, I don't know when I will resign!
With her head down, she walked while thinking about what other shops in City B could customize such bells.
Just as he was about to cross the road, one hand suddenly grabbed her, "Do you plan to keep your head down when crossing the road?" A familiar voice sounded on Xia Qi's head and heart.
She was stunned and raised her head and saw Ye Nanqing accidentally.
Twisting her arm, she took a step back, "Thank you, I'll pay attention next time."
Ye Nanqing had no intention of leaving, but instead continued to stand there and asked Xia Qi, "What were you thinking just now?"
"Nothing, it's just something about decoration design." She replied, "I'm going to go to some places and leave first." As she said that, she turned around and watched the lights at the intersection turn from red to green. She was about to cross the road, but his arm was pulled by him again.
"Where are you going, I'll send you there," he said.
"No need, I can take the bus by myself." Xia Qi replied.
"Don't challenge my patience. I said I would give it to you, and I will definitely give it to you." Ye Nanqing said.
This is his character. If he wants to do it, he will definitely do it. No one can stop him. Xia Qi bit his lip and was reluctantly pulled by Ye Nanqing to the car he parked by the roadside and got into the car.
"Where are you going?" Ye Nanqing asked.
Xia Qi reported the address, and Ye Nanqing glanced at Xia Qi strangely, "Why do you want to go there?"
"Go and try your luck. I wonder if they accept small batches of bell customization." Xia Qi said. As far as she knows, most of the stores are customizations for high-end club objects, such as customizations for ordinary villa objects, and the chances of success are not high.
"Customization? Is there any picture?" Ye Nanqing asked.
"Yes." Xia Qi took out the picture from her bag and handed it to Ye Nanqing.
He lowered his head, half-lowed his eyes, and looked at the bell on the drawings. Is this the bell she thought of? Can the bell ring the whole room when the wind blows, and can't he feel lonely even when he is alone at home?
"Xia Qi, do you have a father?" Qingya's voice suddenly rang.
Xia Qi was stunned. Although she didn't understand why he asked this, she still replied, "I don't." Father, this term used to be a kind of pain and inferiority in her heart. When she saw other children with parents, but there was always only mother by her side, she had great hope that she also had a father.
Therefore, she envied Jun Jinyan for having a father, and that father was gentle, kind but majestic. She even secretly fantasized that one day, Jun Haizhou would become her father.
But I never thought that if she and Jun Jinyan really got married, then she would also call Jun Haizhou "Dad".
Ye Nanqing suddenly smiled and said, "I almost forgot that you mentioned to me three years ago that you lived with your mother, but how ridiculous you said, I didn't pay much attention at that time." If he had noticed it earlier, then maybe it wouldn't be like this today.
Xia Qi asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"I just want to tell you, actually... before I was six years old, I didn't have a father." The smile on the corner of his lips reminded her of that rainy night, when he was wet in the rain, and also told her with a smile that he was an illegitimate child's secret.
So did his father take him to the Ye family after he was six years old? Xia Qi guessed in his heart.
"Don't you think this is what we have in common?" Ye Nanqing said.
"If there is no father, it's the same thing, then Mr. Ye, there are actually many people who have similarities with you." Xia Qi replied, breaking the inexplicable atmosphere in the carriage.
Ye Nanqing smiled and said nothing, and started the car. The car was driving smoothly. Ye Nanqing said in a chat, "Yesterday, were you with Jun Jinyan?"
"So what?" Xia Qi asked back.
"Then is the woman who met the gunman with Jun Jinyan?"
Xia Qi pursed her lips, hesitated for a while, and said truthfully, "Yes, it's me."
So, was that man protecting her? For a moment, Ye Nanqing felt an indescribable astringency in his heart. Should he be glad that she was fine because she happened to be with Jun Jinyan at that time? Or should he regret that the person who protected her was not him?
The car suddenly fell silent, until the car drove to the destination and Xia Qi got out of the car, and Ye Nanqing suddenly said, "I'll go in with you. If it were you, I'm afraid they won't take your order."
Xia Qi looked at the person in front of her in surprise.
He raised his eyebrows, "What, do you think it's strange? Or are you thinking, since I've tried every means to keep you in the company and force you to not quit, I shouldn't be so kind to help you?"
