Su Qingzhu has always characterized herself as an iceberg beauty. She has not spoken about her feelings for men other than Ye Fei.
It was only in front of him that she unveiled her inner self.
Now, Su Qingzhu actively held Ye Fei's palm, gently drew towards him, and spoke softly, with eyes beaming with tenderness, "I'm really glad I met you."
Hearing her compliment, the corner of Ye Fei's mouth lifted, forming a smile, and he cherished Su Qingzhu's devotion and concern.
Why wouldn't someone be pleased that the icy beauty, known for her dislike and disdain towards men, had changed?
When Ye Fei gazed at Su Qingzhu, she only saw his shadow mirrored in her eyes. The cold and proud woman had become his.
Taking this into account, Ye Fei teased her, "Suddenly behaving gently, are you planning to follow the soft route?."
Su Qingzhu's cheeks was flushed, but she said softly, "I'm serious."
And of course she said it sincerely, with Ye Fei, Su Qingzhu always felt safe and comforted.
Su Qingzhu, in truth, is an extremely insecure woman.
She suffered from androphobia as a result of her biological father's constant records of committing domestic violence from infancy; she not only hated men, but she also felt very uncertain about herself.
But after getting to know Ye Fei and how he constantly reversed the tide in a crisis, notably saving Su Xiaokun and now contending with Chen Luo, in the last, dealing with the Hongyan Makeup Crisis, and so on.
Furthermore, Ye Fei took the initiative to counterattack this time. The Qizheng Group was stuck in a vortex from which they could not escape, demonstrating Ye Fei's strength and providing Su Qingzhu with an unparalleled sense of security.
She didn't know when it happened, but her heart gradually opened, revealing her true self to Ye Fei.
That is why she said, sincerely and tenderly, 'I'm really glad I met you.'
Su Qingzhu lowered her head, her hair strewn, and Ye Fei saw it, reaching out his hand to draw up her hair and pulling the strands behind her ears, revealing her delicate earlobes.
Ye Fei's strong hands brushed over Su Qingzhu's delicate skin, causing her white neck to shimmer with a subtle pink tinge.
Seeing this, Ye Fei felt delighted.
Su Qingzhu was soon embarrassed. Ye Fei's palm caressing her cheek skin felt uncomfortable but not unpleasant, like if it was pulling at her heartstrings.
Her cheeks quickly became heated and tender.
The scene in front of Ye Fei appeared very appealing, and akin to frost melting.
Ye Fei smiled slightly, satisfied and glad that he had finally conquered the Frosty Beauty.
The two went shopping after they had their French dinner.
"Let's go; I'll take you to the shopping mall's night market." Ye Fei spoke enthusiastically.
Ye Fei was not in a rush to settle the Qizheng Group's troubles, because the headache was now on Chen Luo and Duan Qizheng.
In any case, he was completely prepared to deal with whatever solution they came up with, and he comfortably watched the display showing their problems, pessimism, and abhorrence, and a malicious smile soon began to develop on Ye Fei's face.
Su Qingzhu's lips curved up and her crimson lips slightly opened at this point: "Mhm, I can't wait."
The two quickly arrived at the commercial street in Yanjing's major business district and began shopping in the night market.
Su Qingzhu had a feeling of novelty because it was the first time she had gone to the mall and night markets with a man.
Su Qingzhu was strolling along the street with Ye Fei, clutching his arm. She came to a halt and exchanged a few words with Ye Fei when she noticed a couple of good things she liked.
Although Su Qingzhu's smile was small, it was growing brighter, and in her twinkling eyes, there was just Ye Fei and no one else.
In the night market, Ye Fei and Su Qingzhu stood out. After all, the combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman will attract attention everywhere they go, especially given their current appearances.
She strolled along the night market area and came upon a little stall selling jewelry.
Su Qingzhu was ecstatic, and after careful consideration, she selected a light blue hairpin and asked Ye Fei, "Does it look good?"
Ye Fei placed the butterfly-shaped light blue hairpin in Su Qingzhu's long straight hair.
It imparted a feeling of enrichment to Su Qingzhu, which itself is extremely attractive, and he grinned "It does seem to fit you."
Then after complimenting her, Ye Fei turned towards the owner of the small stall and asked, "Boss, how much is this hairpin?."
"Ten yuan a piece, pick whatever, I'm just a small business trying to sell my products at a very cheap price!" the boss hurriedly replied. (T/L; 10 yuan= $1.50)
The products at the roadside stall are really cheap.
Su Qingzhu's lips were slightly inclined, hinting that she was pleased with the hairpin. The price of the product was secondary in her mind.
When he heard the price, Ye Fei couldn't help but shrug. The girls around him appear to be Into it. Su Qingzhu's jewelry and accessories are incredibly expensive in everyday life, yet he just needed a hairpin worth a few dollars to make her smile.
Ye Fei remained silent before taking a bill of cash, handing it to the stall owner, and saying, "Keep the change."
"Many thanks!" The stall owner was overjoyed to receive a 500 Yuan bill.
Ye Fei smiled softly as he exited the street stall and continued, "I'll place it there for you."
"Mhm."
Su Qingzhu's lips curled, and she turned her back to Ye Fei, standing on tiptoes and asking Ye Fei to put her hairpin on.
She touched the hairpin and stared at it with a loving gaze after he had placed it in her hair. Despite the fact that it was only worth ten yuan, it was the first present Ye Fei gave her, and she chose to treasure it.
Then, with a beautiful blossoming smile, she took Ye Fei's hand to go shopping and then whispered to him, "I have to go to the bathroom."
"I'll be waiting for you here." Ye Fei gave a nod.
"Thank you very much." Su Qingzhu answered, then walked to the restroom at a neighboring shopping mall, while Ye Fei stood still, randomly fiddling with his cell phone.
Ye Fei was fiddling with his mobile phone with a bored look when he heard a lovely female voice ask him a question.
"~ Hello, gentleman, may I ask, is this district A of Commercial Street?."
Ye Fei looked up and saw a young girl about the age of 20. She was dressed casually in a pink cotton skirt and jeans.
She has a lovely figure, a snow-white face with freckles, a lovely grin, and white high heels. She looks fragile and adorable, as beautiful as a porcelain doll.
The young woman is wearing a hat and people wouldn't be able to see her facial features unless they purposefully looked at her face because her hat was concealing it.
However, because Ye Fei is standing nearby, he can see that she is extremely lovely with very basic light makeup, her brows are picturesque, and her skin is like snow, despite the fact that in Ye Fei's opinion, she is also the best beauty with at least 9 points.
It's only that her wide eyes were a little perplexed at the moment, and she stared at Ye Fei with a puzzled expression.
Looking at her expression, the girl seemed to be lost.
Ye Fei glanced at her with a bit of weariness. This girl seemed to be a little bit crazy and pure.
"No, this is Area C of Wanyu Commercial Street. Area A is on your right and walk straight, about 300 meters." Ye Fei replied lightly.
When the girl heard his words, she smiled and gently thanked him, "Oh, alright, thank you."
As she said so, the girl bowed calmly, and then turned and walked to the other side confidently.
When Ye Fei saw this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and then stopped the girl: "Wait!."
"Huh?" The girl hesitated, blinked her eyes, and stared at Ye Fei, her face unsure.
Ye Fei pointed to the opposite direction where the girl was walking, and said, "That way is to the right, you are going the other way."
This girl is really a road idiot.
As Ye Fei managed to perfectly see the full beautiful face of the young girl, and then thought of her idiotic attributes, suddenly various emotions and thoughts overcame him.
'Huh! T-that's the heroine from another novel!.'
'Hahaha, don't tell me another protagonist is on the way; I still haven't dealt with Chen Luo thoroughly!.'
