Fog clears from Hong Kong Island

Chapter 223 [if] Ask your boyfriend

Min Jiangyue was even more confused and had no idea what was going on.

These two had a good relationship when they were young, but they haven't had much contact in recent years. How come they suddenly became... so close?

If you think about it carefully, there must be something fishy about Xi Jinbai's initiative to accompany her to Hong Kong Island to watch a violin concert.

While I was distracted, the two people opposite me had already left, and their figures disappeared around the corner.

"They left." Xia Tai looked away and saw Min Jiangyue's surprised expression. He asked her, "Even you don't know?"

Min Jiangyue shook her head gently. "He is an adult now and has his own privacy. It is normal for him not to tell me."

But she must ask when she returns home at night.

A white Porsche slowly drove up to the restaurant door downstairs.

After the incident just now, the atmosphere became a little subtle.

Sang Yu saw the license plate clearly, turned to the man next to him and said, "My driver is here, I'm leaving first."

Xi Jinbai nodded, "Okay."

Sang Yu walked forward, opened the car door, and bent down to get in.

The Porsche started smoothly.

In the car, Sang Yu leaned back in his seat and was distracted.

A scene from not long ago flashed through my mind.

Why does my heart rate get irregular when we look into each other's eyes?

It’s strange that Xi Jinbai looks so seductive and has a nice voice.

It's normal for her to feel emotionally unstable.

The first thing Xi Jinbai did after returning to the hotel was to open the gift that Sang Yu had given him.

Surprisingly, there was a shirt inside.

Satin blue, the fabric is smooth and comfortable, reflecting a light luster.

He has never tried such a style before. The clothes in his wardrobe are mostly conventional, with black and white shirts being the most common. They are versatile and can never go wrong, so he doesn't have to spend much time thinking about what to wear.

The one in my hand is more casual and not suitable for formal occasions.

Before taking a shower, Xi Jinbai tried it on.

The shirt is just the right size, fitting the upper body perfectly, neutralizing the calm and cool temperament and adding a bit of casualness.

Looking in the mirror, I couldn't help but think of that beautiful figure.

It seemed that he was thinking about her more and more, and it was gradually getting out of his control.

After taking a shower, the doorbell rang.

Xi Jinbai tied the belt of his bathrobe, wiped his wet hair, and went to open the door.

Min Jiangyue stood outside the door.

He called out, "Miss."

"Where did you go at night?" Min Jiangyue walked into the room, sat down on the sofa, and asked casually.

Xi Jinbai's expression was calm, "I'm having dinner with friends."

Min Jiangyue looked him straight in the eye and asked, "Which friend?"

Xi Jinbai didn't answer, "Miss, why are you suddenly concerned about this?"

"I'm your mother. Isn't it normal for me to care about you?" Min Jiangyue had a good reason and gave him a reassurance, "Don't worry, I won't interfere in your affairs. I'm just asking."

"With Sang Yu."

"You and Sang Yu went out to eat alone? When did you two..."

Knowing what she wanted to say, Xi Jinbai explained concisely: "I met her by chance in France last month. I helped her with a small favor and she treated me to a meal."

Hearing this answer, Min Jiangyue was disappointed, "That's it?"

Xi Jinbai pursed his thin lips lightly, "Or else?"

Min Jiangyue was silent.

He is so frank and doesn't seem fake. Could it be that they are just friends?

Xi Jinbai reminded her, "Miss, it's getting late. Don't let your beauty sleep be delayed."

Min Jiangyue stood up after his thoughts were interrupted. "You should also go to bed early and stay up less late."

Xi Jinbai nodded, "Okay, good night." Returning to the next room, Min Jiangyue thought more and more that something was wrong. With Xi Jinbai's personality, he would turn down any girl who invited him to dinner. Why was he willing to have dinner alone with Sang Yu?

Before the Spring Festival, Ji Wanning had to go on a business trip to Suzhou City. Sang Yu just wanted to go there to customize a Suzhou embroidered cheongsam, so the mother and daughter went together.

Jiang Tang had previously recommended a century-old cheongsam shop to Sang Yu, but the location was rather difficult to find, as it was deep in an alley on an ancient street.

Sang Yu has not been to Suzhou City many times and is not familiar with the place.

Jiang Tang had originally agreed to go with her and had already arranged a time, but something happened suddenly and he called and said, "Sorry, Sang Yu, something happened at the photo studio and I have to go there to take care of it. Can I ask Xi Jinbai to take you there?"

The voice came from the receiver, and Sang Yu hesitated, "Is he okay today?"

"Well, he's off today."

"Well."

Jiang Tang felt bad for standing her back, "I'm really sorry this time, I'll treat you to a meal another day."

Sang Yu completely understood, "It's okay, go and do your thing."

Not long after I hung up the phone, Xi Jinbai sent a WeChat message, "Wait for me in 20 minutes, I'll pick you up."

Sang Yu replied: [OK, thank you. ]

At nine o'clock, Xi Jinbai arrived downstairs of the hotel on time.

Sang Yu didn't put on any makeup and just picked up her bag and went out.

The weather in Suzhou is cold, the temperature has dropped below zero. As soon as you leave the hotel, the biting cold wind howls towards you.

She quickly wrapped her cashmere coat tightly around herself and pulled her neck into the collar of her sweater.

Xi Jinbai got out of the back seat of the Maybach and looked at the girl in front of him, "Why don't you put on more clothes?"

"I don't like wearing something too bulky." Sang Yu took a step forward and got into the car quickly.

The air conditioner was on in the car and I felt warm instantly.

After Jin Bai got in the car and closed the door, the driver lightly stepped on the accelerator and the Maybach started again.

"Come over and play for a few days?" he asked.

"Three days. I'll go back to Hong Kong Island when my mom is done with her work."

Sang Yu thought of another thing. He hadn’t received any feedback on the birthday gift he gave last time. “Did the dress I gave you last time fit me?”

Xi Jinbai tilted his head to look at her, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes, "How do you know my size?"

That shirt doesn't look like one bought on the market, it looks more like a custom-made one.

Sang Yu said truthfully: "I asked Jiang Tang."

Jiang Tang asked his personal assistant for the exact size he wanted.

Xi Jinbai chuckled suddenly, "Why don't you just ask me directly."

Sang Yu whispered, "How could I tell you about the birthday present in advance?"

Xi Jinbai curled his lips slightly, "Why is it blue?"

Sang Yu asked back: "Don't you like blue? I think you would look good in blue."

She turned sideways and looked at him, "You don't believe my judgment?"

Xi Jinbai raised his eyebrows slightly, "I believe it. I didn't say I don't believe it."

After driving for half an hour, we arrived at the entrance of the ancient street, where we could only walk.

There was a constant stream of people shopping on the street.

Xi Jinbai reminded the girl beside him, "Follow closely, don't get lost."

"Oh."

There are many forks in the alley, crisscrossing each other, and each road is similar. Sang Yu will definitely get lost if he comes alone.

It took seven or eight minutes to walk to the store.

There aren't that many people coming to customize cheongsams in the winter, but once the peak season arrives, the store's business is bound to be booming.

The clerk introduced the patterns and styles of cheongsam to Sang Yu.

Xi Jinbai was waiting for her on the side, without any impatience.

There were too many patterns and colors to choose from, and Sang Yu was in a dilemma.

The cheongsam craftsman recommended two pieces of blue floral silk based on her appearance and temperament, and said, "Girl, this pattern is very beautiful. You have fair skin and a distinctive figure, so you will look beautiful in it. If you don't believe me, ask your boyfriend."
