The Most Pleasant Thing to Hear

In the past Bei Er Duo had met Pei Shu Ye once, so she has a very good impression toward her. This time meeting her, she felt she is very nice.

Pei Shu Ye had removed her make up, she only wore a very light lipsticks, and wore a simple t-shirt and jeans. She didn’t forget to wear hat to avoid fans to recognize her during their time of having midnight snack. She wanted to be free to chat and together with her husband, Mu Di.

She already booked a restaurant, it was Cantonese restaurant not far from Xing He theater.

After the dishes were served out, without caring anything Pei Shu Ye just ate everything happily like she has been hungry for several days. Her action surprised Bei Er Duo.

“Since little she is King of Eating. In a day she needs to eat four meals.” Ye Shu Wei put the fruit in front of Bei Er Duo.

Hearing someone said something about her, Pei Shu Ye raised her head up from her bowl of scallion chicken rice, she said to Bei Er Duo: “Except music and food, I don’t have any interest for anything.”

“But you are very skinny.” Bei Er Duo’s gaze fell on Pei Shu Ye’s slender arms. 

“It’s just because of the constitution of my body. My metabolism is too fast. So I don’t get fat even though I eat a lot of food. In addition, playing music also wastes a lot of energy. My weight never goes up more than 45 kg.” Pei Shu Ye said it very calmly, she didn’t try to show off.

“If I am you then it would be very good.” Bei Er Duo couldn’t help but to feel jealous toward her.

“I don’t like you to be too skinny. It’s not healthy.” Ye Shu Wei picked a slice of fish fillet with his chopsticks and put it on her bowl.

Pei Shu Ye laughed: “Yes, please don’t be like me. I am too skinny. I am easily get sick if I don’t get a full rest.”

“Don’t you play around with your health just because you are young.” Ye Shu Wei said.

“You have right to say me? It’s clear that you also a workaholic. If you don’t have a girlfriend, would you have time to get together and have dinner. Today you came also not for become my supporter, you just want a chance to have romantic moment with your girlfriend right?”

Ye Shu Wei didn’t mind her, Bei Er Duo was embarrassed. She put her head down and just ate her fish. She ate then shifted the topic: “When will your husband come?”

Pei Shu Ye looked at her watch: “He will come soon. He also hasn’t have his dinner. Supposedly he would very hungry now.”

“Oh right, today he didn’t accompany you on stage.”

“Em. It’s me who don’t let him come. I am afraid that he would steal the attention. Recently he is too popular. Every time after the class, there would be rows of people waited for him to ask for a signature.”

Suddenly, a man pushed the door and smiled. He came over to sit down beside his wife, and said softly: “Are you talking about me?”

Pei Shu Ye used her spoon to take a shrimp dumpling to block up her husband’s mouth: “Talking about you make people get a high temper. You are more popular than me.”

Mu Di seemed to helpless: “I don’t dare to have that kind of hope, I’m happy and really satisfied just to be a man behind you.”

Pei Shu Ye pinched his face.

Bei Er Duo looked at their loving affection.

Like everyone said, Mu Di was a very good and kind handsome man. He is skinny and white. When he smiled, his dimples would appear. His voice is warm and tender. He has really good personality.

Pei Shu Ye leaked up some secrets: “Actually his temperament is very stubborn. When he encounters problems contradicted with his principle, he would just insist and wouldn’t back out. If I don’t follow him, he would emotionally abuse me.”

Mu Di kept on smiling, he didn’t have intention to protest.

Bei Er Duo asked: “Really? But it’s completely unlikely. What are the problems?”

Pei Shu Ye said to Bei Er Duo: “That year he forced me to get married. I was just twenty four years old. I just started to get popular. I had unlimited prospect. But he insisted to get married that year. He said that if I don’t agree to it then he would break up with me. He didn’t give any discussion chance.”

Mu Di laughed, then said: “That because I was afraid that the time you are popular, you would throw me away.”

“Also, when the time he asked me to end this national tour to be well-behaved and stayed at home to maintain my health to prepare to give birth for a son for him. At the beginning I was against it. Everyday he would without saying anything, he would just show me his cold face until I couldn’t stand it anymore, and took initiative to compromise.”

Mu Di explained: “We need to take opportunity that my Ma is still young, she could help us to rise the kid. If it’s too late, it would also be hard for you to recover.”

“It’s just excuse.” Pei Shu Ye pouted.

Mu Di looked at Ye Shu Wei, and said: “What do you think, Big brother Ye?”

Ye Shu Wei said: “I think you are right.”

Pei Shu Wei called in reinforcement and pulled Bei Er Duo’s hand: “Listen to me it’s the truth. Do you think that he is too controlling? Which woman would be willing to get marry in twenty years old, and be a mother after a year of marriage?”

Bei Er Duo was about to say something, but she noticed that Ye Shu Wei were looking at her. So she was struggling: “I understand your pressure. But now it’s a lot of people gets marry early and give birth early. Perhaps after being mother, you would notice very lively thing.”

Pei Shu Ye let go Bei Er Duo’s hand, and felt disappointed: “Now you are being brain-washed by my cousin.”

Bei Er Duo was speechless.

“My cousin looks very independent of his action, but the one that understands him would know that he is very conventional, he is a family man.” Pei Shu Ye said: “I think you wouldn’t escape the reality that in three years, you would have two kids.”

Bei Er Duo : “………”

“Isn’t it good to be family man?” Ye Shu Wei asked.

Pei Shu Ye lowered her head to eat the rice roll, she knew she wouldn’t win over her brother in discussion so she just gave up.

Ye Shu Wei lowered his head and looked at Bei Er Duo: “What do you think?”

“Because my father is a very family-man, so I could accept it.” Bei Er Duo answered.

Ye Shu Wei nodded, and took a meat for Bei Er Duo as a reward.

This time, Pei Shu Ye was completely realized that how could she have illusion that she could make her cousin’s boyfriend to be in her side?

How could Bei Er Duo be in her independent mind when she is brain-washed by him.

……….

On the way home, they talked about Pei Shu Ye and Mu Di, Bei Er Duo expressed her jealousy about their loving affection, especially Di Mu’s gentle and soft attitude toward his wife.

“Gentle and soft?” Ye Shu Wei thought about it for a while, “Are you saying that I am not gentle?”

Bei Er Duo was a bit speechless: “Do you know what is gentle or soft?”

He stroked her head: “Is this count?”

“It’s a kind. But it’s just an outer appearance, the authentic tender affection is coming from the heart.”

“Be more specific?”

“Good at understanding others, tolerant, and considerate.”

“Fortunately, it’s all the characters that I possess.”

“…….”

“Don’t tell me you don’t feel it?”

Bei Er Duo wiped the sweat on her forehead, then said: “Actually you already do it well, you don’t need to handle it everything, you just need to be more kind and wholehearted, it’s not really important whether you are warm or not.”

Ye Shu Wei was in silent, he thought that it turns out that in her heart, he was not a warm man, to the extent he maybe the opposite of the warmth man.

Bei Er Duo didn’t notice that kind of mood from Ye Shu Wei, she just spoke it casually. Of course, she was not really serious that he was not warm enough.

But she didn’t know, he started to care about this.

When Bei Er Duo about to go up and opened her door, her phone rang. She rushed to get inside, and answered.

“Bei Er Duo, are you crazy?! You unexpectedly joined the show with a man?! You are also publicly hugging, are you afraid that this whole world don’t know that you are in relationship? Having a boyfriend for the first time in these twenty years do you feel so glorious that you need to show it to the world? Do you think about the consequence? If you at last break off with him, what would you do? Would you still be able to get marry?!” Xu Zhen Fen said it so loud, it’s too unpleasant for the ear.

Bei Er Duo frowned and replied: “Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t care about me again. I have a freedom to do anything.”

With extreme anger, she said: “I almost forget that I said that, thank you for troubling you to remind me!”

She said it then hung up.

Bei Er Duo put down her phone, then slightly rubbed her ear. It was too loud, luckily now she still could hear properly.

This lifetime she never really could be able to communicate well with her mother.

She already prepared that this would happen.

Just let it be, anyway now Ye Shu Wei and her are official, she wouldn’t afraid of Xu Zhen Fen’s interrogation. Moreover, Xu Zhen Fen now also has a young boyfriend, she wouldn’t be too arrogant to teach her.

Bei Er Duo slept peacefully.

After few days, there was nothing from Xu Zhen Fen.

On Saturday, as usual Ye Shu Wei went to work. Bei Er Duo stayed at home alone, until in the evening, she got a call from Ye Shu Wei.

“I’m downstairs.”

Bei Er Duo immediately changed her clothes and rushed downstairs. Ye Shu Wei waited for her by leaning on the trunk door. He asked her to come over.

Bei Er Duo came. In the trunk, there was a lot of things. There was barbecue tools, aluminum foil, foods, candles.

“What is this? Will we go to cook in the open air?” She was slightly expecting it.

“I want to take you to the riverside to have dinner.” He gazed at her, “I will personally cook for you.”

Bei Er Duo was so happy, she hugged him: “Hurry up let’s go, I am really hungry.”

He raised his hand and stroked her head.

When she opened the car door, she heard a familiar voice. 

“Er Duo.”

Bei Er Duo stood still then turned her head. It was Bei Heng An, he was standing there with his suitcase. He smiled very brightly.

Bei Er Duo was startled for a while, and immediately ran over and threw herself at her Papa.

Bei Heng An let his suitcase down, and hugged his daughter.

Ye Shu Wei stood there, it was his first time to see how Bei Er Duo acted like a spoiled child in front of the opposite sex.

“Why are you coming home so suddenly?!” Bei Er Duo simply couldn’t believe it.

“I had see all the place, now I just want to see my daughter.” Bei Heng An hugged her.

Bei Er Duo almost cried, it’s been a long time for her not to see her father. She missed him. 

“Oh right, Er Duo. Who is he?” Bei Heng An looked at Ye Shu Wei.

Bei Er Duo just remembered that she forgot to introduce her boyfriend. She let her father go then took initiative to hold Ye Shu Wei’s hand and brought him in front of her father.

“This is my boyfriend, Ye Shu Wi.” Bei Er Duo raised her head and looked at Ye Shu Wei, her eyes was so loving: “Shu Wei, he is my Papa.”

“Hello, Uncle.” Ye Shu Wei bowed a bit, he was very respectful.

Bei Heng An smiled and nodded: “So it’s you, before I’m back, I heard from her Mama, she has a boyfriend now.”

“So she told you.” Bei Er Duo grumbled. Suddenly she understood the reason her Papa was coming home.

“Very handsome and very tall man. Nice to meet you.” Bei Heng An smiled, “Where would you guys go?”

“We are going to the river side to have picnic.” Bei ER Duo took initiative to tell her.

Bei Heng An raised his hand to see the watch: “Now it’s not early anymore, you guys still want to go to the riverside? It’s a little be cold and windy today. Er Duo would be cold, if not do it another day?”

“It’s okay…” Bei Er Duo wanted to explain.

“Just another day then.” Ye Shu Wei said, he was very easy-mannered, “Er Duo, it’s been a long time since you meet your father, you should have many things to say to him. Today I would not bother you, next day I would look for you to go on date.”

He said that then said good bye.

Bei Er Duo wanted to urge him to stay, but she already being stopped by Bei Heng An. He smiled and looked at Ye Shu Wei: “Drive carefully.”

Just like that, Ye Shu Wei went home, and Bei Er Duo went upstairs with her Papa.

When they were inside, Bei Heng An said: “Er Duo, your Mama seems to be not approve of your boyfriend.”
