Zhang Jingdong and Qin Yu got all lovey-dovey for a while, then he began to see her off reluctantly.
As a result, it took a full twenty minutes just to walk her to the dining table.
At this point, Zhang Jingdong couldn’t help but say, "Or you could just not go back tonight, how about we chat by candlelight?
Qin Yu was initially tempted, after all, they had just confirmed their relationship, and she didn’t want to be apart from Zhang Jingdong for a moment.
But she quickly thought of something, and with difficulty, she bit the corner of her mouth, "I’d love to, but... my mom will come over to bring me chicken soup early in the morning, she’ll definitely find out if I don’t go back!"
"Right, my mom’s chicken soup is really delicious, and she said she wanted you to taste it too. I’ll bring some over to you later."
Zhang Jingdong teased, "Oh right, there’s something I forgot to tell you."
Qin Yu blinked her beautiful eyes, "What’s up?"
"This morning, your mom came with the doctor to change my dressing, officially thanked me for stepping up to save her precious daughter, then we talked about some other stuff too."
"Other stuff? What did you talk about?"
"Really want to know?"
"Yeah, come on, spill it."
"That Mr. Qin... you must give me a little reward?"
Qin Yu knew he was up to no good again and immediately gave him a stern look, "Haven’t you taken enough advantage already?"
"Just experienced it earlier, didn’t really get to appreciate... Let me have a good look!"
Although Qin Yu found it a bit embarrassing, she had no choice - after all, this guy was now her boyfriend, and she had already been...
So, she helplessly puckered her lips, "...Fine... where?!"
Zhang Jingdong immediately gave her a knowing look.
Qin Yu decisively shook her head, "No way!"
Zhang Jingdong had anticipated this, not discouraged at all, and gave her another look, "How about here, can we at least do this?"
He actually used the foot-in-the-door technique, making the biggest request first, and after being refused, he’d make a smaller request that was harder to refuse.
Sure enough, while Qin Yu still felt a bit uncomfortable, she eventually sighed, "...only two seconds!"
And then she did as agreed.
Zhang Jingdong appreciated the view, and with admiration, he nodded, "Tsk tsk, what a masterful creation of nature, dividing the yin and the yang, simply perfect!"
A blush spread across Qin Yu’s face as she gave him a disparaging look, "Spit it out, what exactly did my mom talk to you about?"
Zhang Jingdong touched his nose and then said, "After your mom finished thanking me, she asked about my basic information and specifically asked about my age, so I told her I’m 26 this year."
"Then your mom got really happy, saying you’re 29 this year, and I said that’s perfect, an older woman for a younger guy is like a golden brick."
"After that, your mom directly said if I had any intentions towards you, she could help out, and I immediately said sure!"
Qin Yu was simultaneously embarrassed and delighted, with a hint of disbelief, "You... really talked about that?"
"If you don’t believe it, ask your mom yourself tomorrow."
Hearing this, Qin Yu completely believed him, then said sweetly, "You’re really bold, daring to discuss this kind of topic directly with my mom!"
Zhang Jingdong pulled her by her waist, "You just don’t understand, your mom can be a deputy director of such a big hospital, she definitely has the strength and the courage."
"So, in front of someone like her, the more direct and bold you are, the more she will appreciate you."
"And most importantly, I’m not braggadocio, when I said those words to her at that time, I was already confident I could win you over, so we were also full of confidence, right!"
Qin Yu burst into laughter, "Look at you bragging! This morning we were nowhere near that, you should at least draft your tall tales before you tell them!"
Zhang Jingdong then kissed her pretty face, smugly said, "You just don’t know, sometimes chasing a woman is all about intuition, I had already felt your affection for me, so us getting together was just a matter of sooner or later!"
"Plus, with a little bit of my technique tonight, you ended up meekly surrendering, right?"
Qin Yu’s competitive spirit was instantly aroused, "Who surrendered to whom? It was clearly you who confessed to me first, right?"
"Alright, alright... I surrendered to you, I am wholeheartedly fallen under your pomegranate skirt, okay..."
Zhang Jingdong actually did precisely that.
Qin Yu suddenly panicked, quickly dodging, "You... mmm mmm..."
Qin Yu barely managed to tease him verbally, but then Zhang Jingdong took a much bigger advantage of her elsewhere.
It wasn’t until one o’clock in the morning that Qin Yu finally left the sickroom, blushing and beaming with shyness and joy.
Back at the director’s office, she freshened up, then came in front of the mirror.
Looking at the hickeys that someone had left, she couldn’t help but reminisce about everything that had happened in his sickroom.
After a while, Qin Yu suddenly covered her face with both hands, as if it was on fire, murmuring, "Qin Yu, you’re crazy, was that really you just now? You actually..."
But after a while, she gradually calmed down and added, "Since I’ve chosen him, I might as well be crazy once, because being with him is really so much fun!"
The next day, when the two met again, Qin Yu was just like a newlywed wife, patiently and meticulously taking care of all of Zhang Jingdong’s needs.
And what made Zhang Jingdong feel most satisfied was that yesterday, he couldn’t lay a hand on her, but now, not only could he freely touch her, but he could even casually caress her long legs and shapely behind.
Yesterday, he went out of his way to have a chance to touch her under the legitimate pretext of teaching her self-defense, and was still called a pervert by her.
But now, touching her freely, not only does she not call him a pervert, but she also gives him a somewhat joyous look.
