Chapter 32




Chapter 32 You’re Very Obedient, and I’m Also Good
***
10:00 a.m.
Yu Dong had woken up and immediately recalled last night’s sweet kiss. She couldn’t help but roll around her bed.
Unexpectedly, Xia Feng who looks like a perfect gentleman can actually kiss so passionately.
No wonder novels featuring the black-bellied president were so popular, being dominated by someone you like actually feels quite good.
“Hey, hey…” Yu Dong was amused by her brainless thoughts.
After a while, Yu Dong got out of bed and went to towards her window to open the curtains.
It was unusually beautiful and sunny, the sunshine filling her room and brightening everyone’s day. But with Yu Dong’s current mood, even in the rain and snow, everything would feel romantic to her.
Because for a woman in love, everything is seen through this powerful filter.
Yu Dong stood in front of her window and stretched, before leaving to wash and prepare to go out.
After dressing, she went out into the kitchen and surprisingly found a light blue insulated lunchbox on the dining table.
When Yu Dong walked closer, she noticed a note beside the box. The familiar script made her smile and even before she started reading it, Yu Dong was already happy.
[ I bought breakfast on the way home, and I remembered to eat dinner. I’ve arrived home, and I’ll be sleeping first. When I wake up, I’ll be checking if you’ve eaten!
P.S. I’ve already eaten some ]
Yu Dong arched an eyebrow and opened the blue lunchbox. Four crystal-clear Xiao Long Baos were inside, still emanating warmth.
(T/N Xiao Long Baos look like Mini steamed buns)
Yu Dong picked up a small bun and ate a mouthful. The burst of crab tasted unexpectedly sweet.
She obediently ate her breakfast, then added some words on the note before leaving.
As soon as Yu Dong drove her car out through the community gates, her phone started ringing. She accepted the call after seeing that it was Xiaoyue.
“Xiaoyue I just left, I’ll be there in 40 minutes.”
“Don’t go to the studio, come to the World Trade Center,” Xiaoyue said.
“The World Trade Center? Are you planning to talk about a collaboration with someone?” Yu Dong asked, confused.
“What cooperation, we’re going to get Lu Xuan!” Xiang Xiaoyue was seething mad.
“Lu Xuan? What happened?” Yu Dong asked.
“That scum, he took advantage of the fact that I went to my parent’s house yesterday and ran to my apartment to find Xinxin.” At the thought of this, Xiaoyue’s rage grew.
“Is Xinxin alright!” Yu Dong became worried.
“How can she be alright, when I came back this morning her eyes were swollen; it looked like she cried all night.” Xiang Xiaoyue continued to growl, “You know Xinxin, whenever something like this happens to her she thinks she’ll be a bother and doesn’t call.”
“Alright, wait for me. I’ll be right over!” Yu Dong hung up the phone.
The World Trade Center was quite close to the residential area where Yu Dong lived. In less than half an hour, she parked directly beneath the Lu Group building.
“Dong Dong!”
Yu Dong got off her car and saw Xiang Xiaoyue near the entrance of Lu Group’s building, wearing a fiery red coat. It was really eye-catching and was particularly striking next to Yu Dong who was wearing black and white.
“Let’s go!”
The two entered the building and sat in the lobby lounge to discuss their game plan.
“What did Lu Xuan say to Xinxin yesterday?” Yu Dong wanted to know what happened last night first.
“That absolute scum said he wanted to take Xinxin’s baby away. I can’t believe it, I’ve never seen such a cheap man!” Xiaoyue spits.
“Take the baby? You mean Lu Xuan wants the child?” Yu Dong was doubtful. After previously listening to Xinxin’s experiences with Lu Xuan, it was obvious that he thought Xinxin purposely became pregnant to trap him into marriage. Lu Xuan even said several times before that he was disgusted with the child.
“Yes, he said that when Xinxin gives birth, he will get a lawyer to fight for custody and threatened Xinxin to just hand over the baby willingly, or else he’d make it so that she’d never be able to see the baby in the future.” Xiang Xiaoyue said, “Xinxin was scared to death.”
“So what can we do here? Talk to him?” Yu Dong asked.
“He didn’t see me at all!” Xiang Xiaoyue said gloomily, “I came early in the morning, and the elevators wouldn’t go up! The front desk keeps telling me that Lu Xuan was busy negotiating a collaboration with Aville Corporation, it’s obviously an excuse!”
“The President doesn’t want to let you make a scene and explode, of course they’re making excuses.” Aville Corporation, that name sounds familiar.
Yu Dong took out her phone to search online, but the connection speed was slow that she felt like she’d die of old age before the page finishes loading.
[ Aville Corporation, a famous real estate company in Singapore, CEO Qin Yue who was originally from Jiangsu Province and now lives in Singapore… ]
Qin Yue? Yu Dong was stunned, and she looked at Xiang Xiaoyue.
“What are you looking at me for?” Xiang Xiaoyue looked at Yu Dong strangely.
“Do you know a Qin Yue?” Yu Dong asked.
“Qin Yue? Who?” Xiaoyue asked doubtfully.
Your future husband…Yu Dong answered in her heart.
“He’s the president of Aville Corporation.” Yu Dong explained.
“Then how can I possibly- how can I know!” Xiaoyue shook her head.
It seems that you’re going to have to meet each other earlier than last time. I hope that you’ll fall in love with each other again in this life.
“Did you think of a way? We have to talk to Lu Xuan and warn him away!” Xiaoyue said, looking serious.
“How long have you been here?” Yu Dong suddenly asked.
“Almost 2 hours,” Xiaoyue replied.
“Then it should pretty much be the same.” Yu Dong estimated, then looked back at Xiaoyue and reminded her: “Lu Xuan should be sending the people from Aville Corporation down soon, I’ll go look for him then. Don’t get too excited, remember to keep your goddess demeanor!”
Don’t scare your future husband away.
“Can you handle him alone?” Xiang Xiaoyue worried.
“No problem!”
The two women sat for another 10 minutes before they finally saw Lu Xuan arrive.
“Come on!” Xiang Xiaoyue stood up excitedly.
Yu Dong looked towards the crowd, Qin Yue really was next to Lu Xuan. Before her rebirth, Xiang Xiaoyue regularly sent lovey-dovey photos of Qin Yue to her circle of friends, to the point that Yu Dong had to blacklist her from QQ.
Yu Dong took off her coat and set it aside; she was wearing a simple beige long-sleeved dress with black high-heels. It wasn’t very formal, but it would have to do.
“President Qin, I had a pleasant time talking to you, I hope we can have an opportunity to collaborate.” Lu Xuan and Qin Yue shook hands.
“Naturally. We’ve seen the Lu Group’s plans, and while we’re satisfied, I have to go back and discuss specifics for a collaboration.” Qin Yue laughed.
“That would be great!” Lu Xuan was happy.
“You don’t need to send me off past here.” Qin Yue said.
“Take care, President Qin!”
Yu Dong saw that they were about to part, so she shouted loudly.
“President Qin!”
Qin Yue heard a shout, so he looked back, only to see two beautiful women walking towards him.
When Lu Xuan saw the two women he immediately frowned; he could still feel his eggs aching.
“What do you need to talk about?” Lu Xuan knew that Xiaoyue had been looking for him since this morning.
“I’m looking for President Qin,” Yu Dong looked at Lu Xuan funnily.
“Yes, try to contain your ego why don’t you!” Xiang Xiaoyue countered with scorn.
Qin Yue then asked, “I don’t seem to know you?”
“Hello President Qin, my name is Yu Dong. I’m the business manager of Qingfeng Architecture.” Yu Dong extended a hand.
Qin Yue politely shook hands with Yu Dong.
“I know I’m being a bit irritating coming to you unannounced, but our designs have been handed over to your company for more than a month and we received no response. I really have no other choice, I hope you can understand.” Yu Dong said.
Xiang Xiaoyue stared at Yu Dong who was lying with such a straight face: Sister, what are you playing? Aren’t we aiming for that scum man?
Lu Xuan was also baffled, didn’t Yu Dong study broadcasting and hosting? When did she study architecture?
Although Qin Yue felt that it was a little abrupt, this beautiful woman came all the way here to intercept him so he didn’t think it’d be right to refuse. Therefore, he nodded his head and agreed.
“Let’s talk over there.” After saying this, Yu Dong turned to Lu Xuan and said, “Lu Xuan wouldn’t mind us borrowing his company’s lounge.”
“Go ahead!” Lu Xuan would naturally agree.
Qin Yue sat down with his assistant and said to Yu Dong, “Please try to be as brief as possible, I have another meeting later.”
“Yes!” Yu Dong then said, ” Your company wants to build a resort in the suburbs of Shanghai, which is adjacent to Suzhou. Therefore, our company’s design refers to the style of Qing Dynasty courtyards. Combined with modern architectural methods, we intend to design…The mountains and river nearby are beautiful, and we can lead live waters into the courtyard, or we can emulate the Humble Administrator’s Garden…Let the resort blend with the surrounding scenery….”
As Qin Yue listened to Yu Dong’s introduction, he felt that the resort in his heart was slowly taking shape.
Compared to other companies that propose heavily modernised or European-American designs, this one was the closest to his vision.
“May I ask why your company decided to break current architectural trends and chose to take the Chinese route?” Qin Yue asked, moved.
“Because China’s architecture is the best choice  when it comes to landscapes!” Yu Dong smiled and said, “Of course, part of it is also because President Qin grew up in Suzhou. We thought you would be more kind in your critique.”
“You know that?” Qin Yue was surprised.
Of course I know, your future wife talks about you 800 times a day.
When Ren Xinxin committed suicide, Xiang Xiaoyue and Yu Dong had come together and thought that if Qin Yue had known early on, he never would have collaborated with Lu Xuan. Qin Yue even mentioned that he had initially wanted to build a Chinese-style resort in Shencheng, similar to the courtyard he lived in as a child.
It was only that the designs depicting this style of architecture was rejected by the supervisors and was directly binned without his knowledge. He inadvertently discovered the plans later on, but by that time he had already signed a contract with Lu Group.
Qin Yue would sometimes think of this missed opportunity and regret it.
It was only thanks to Xiang Xiaoyue’s oversharing and pain-inducing public displays of affection that Yu Dong could now say these words effortlessly.
“Manager Yu, did you bring any of the designs with you?” Qin Yue wanted to see the drawings, he was already very interested.
“President Qin, this is really embarrassing, because I was in such a rush, I didn’t even bring a business card, let alone the design sketches….” Yu Dong explained awkwardly.
“That’s fine!” Qin Yue nodded in understanding, then turned to his assistant to say: “Assistant Wang, go back and send the designs to my office as soon as possible.”
“Yes, president!”
During their talk, Xiaoyue went to the front desk and cheekily asked for two cups of coffee- right in front of Lu Xuan.
“President Qin have some coffee!” Xiang Xiaoyue put down a coffee in front of Qin Yue and handed another cup to the assistant beside him. “Drink some coffee too handsome guy.”
Qin Yue listened to her words and couldn’t help but smile. Xiaoyue turned around at this moment and having seen Qin Yue’s smile, naturally smiled back.
Qin Yue was a little stunned before he looked down at the cup in front of him. Two golden flowers were depicted in the cup spelling ‘LU’.
Qin Yue couldn’t help but think that these two women were quite powerful. One ran to a rival company to rob them of a customer right under their noses, and the other used the enemy’s own coffee to greet said customers as they’re being stolen.
Qin Yue took a sip of coffee and said, “OK, I’ll carefully consider it after I go back and see the designs.”
“Thank you, President Qin!”
Yu Dong and Lu Xuan both sent Qin Yue off together.
Lu Xuan then frowned at the two girls and said: “Aren’t you a radio host? When did you start working for a construction company?”
“Does my work have anything to do with you?” Yu Dong asked.
“What trouble are you trying to start? How do you even know President Qin?” Lu Xuan felt that Yu Dong was purposely doing this to mess with him.
“Why are you so paranoid? And I haven’t even asked you yet, what did you do to Xinxin yesterday?” Xiaoyue interrupted angrily.
“You don’t have the right to meddle between the two of us.” Lu Xuan replied coldly.
“You…” Xiaoyue saw his arrogance and was about to lift her leg to give him a mighty kick when she was stopped by Yu Dong.
Lu Xuan’s recently conditioned reflexes kicked in and he took a step back, his livid face turning to shout: “Security!”
“What are you stopping me for? See if I don’t wipe the floor with this shameless thing.” Xiaoyue cried.
“You don’t have to call security, I’ll just say a few words then voluntarily leave after.” Yu Dong dragged Xiaoyue behind her and said, “First, you can’t take Ren Xinxin’s baby away.”
Lu Xuan sneered.
“I know you have money and can hire a good lawyer, but will the judge actually consider choosing a single rich father over the married mother with an able-bodied family?”
“What are you saying?” Lu Xuan’s face changed.
“Right now Xinxin’s only thinking of the baby and isn’t thinking about getting married, but you’re forcing her into a corner right now. That won’t end well with you because after all, there are plenty of people who still like her.” Yu Dong’s meaning was obvious. Xinxin will be forced to find someone to marry so that the custody of her child will stay with her. “Of course, we all don’t want to go that far!”
Lu Xuan’s face suddenly turned black and terrible.
“Second, you shouldn’t think about the collaboration between Aville and Lu Group anymore.” Yu Dong sneered and continued, “You probably don’t believe it right now, but I just stole your collaboration. Let this be a warning to you.”
After saying this, Yu Dong gave Lu Xuan a haughty look and pulled Xiang Xiaoyue away.
“Dong Dong, Lu Xuan’s face!” Xiang Xiaoyue cackled, “Seeing that scum man get destroyed is so exhilarating.”
“Don’t you do the same thing every time you see him, goddess?” Yu Dong said.
“I’m the goddess that destroys all scum men!” Xiang Xiaoyue agreed, but began to ask: “But you just talked nonsense to President Qin, will things be alright?”
“I’ll never see him again anyway.” Yu Dong shrugged indifferently. “It doesn’t matter.”
Of course, if you end up marrying him, getting fooled won’t be much of an issue either. He probably won’t dare offend his wife’s girlfriend. Yu Dong silently added this to her heart.
“Yes!” Xiang Xiaoyue said, “Why do I feel like you’re getting smarter and smarter? Back then, it had always been obvious that out of the three of us, I was the smartest.”
“Wrong, you’re the most beautiful!”
“Yes!” Xiang Xiaoyue was satisfied with this too.
……
It was already 3:00 p.m. when Xia Feng woke up.
Rubbing his throbbing temple, he went into the kitchen and poured himself a glass of warm water. After a while, Xia Feng remembered the lunchbox on the table.
The lunchbox sat quietly on the table as if it hadn’t been moved at all. Xia Feng lifted the lid and saw that Yu Dong had left his note inside with a few words added.
[ You’re very obedient, I’m also pretty good ah, I’ve eaten it all (*^__^*) ]
Xia Feng couldn’t help but chuckle as he took the note and clipped it in his notebook.

After the two girls just managed to appease Ren Xinxin, Yu Dong suddenly asked Xiang Xiaoyue: “What day is it today?”
“Thursday!” replied Xiaoyue.
Then after 12:00 is…
