Chapter 570: Chapter 544: Differences and Green Tea
Women and men definitely view problems from different angles.
Xiao Qian could tell at a glance that this so-called female classmate had malicious intentions towards her Xiao Qiang, but the foolish fiancé just thought he had met an old classmate in a foreign land.
Fortunately, he didn’t suggest getting together for a meal in the future, or else Xiao Qian would have pressed a watermelon onto his head.
That being said, she still didn’t give him a good look.
Yu Minglang tried to strike up a conversation with her, but Xiao Qian maintained her silent pride. Yu Minglang couldn’t figure out why Xiao Mei was unhappy.
Xiao Qian’s house is located near the TV station, a rare small high-rise building. The residents are middle-class people from the city, with a relatively good environment, an underground parking lot, and a card required for entry and exit. This is why she dares to work such a late-night shift. Still, when Yu Minglang came over, he observed the surroundings for any unsafe factors out of habit.
Now there was only Xiao Qian at home, an empty room. Xiao Qian went home, changed her shoes, and threw her bag on the cabinet without looking at Yu Minglang. She walked straight to the bathroom. Yu Minglang pulled her back and looked at her with deep eyes.
“You’re angry.”
“No.”
When a woman says no, it means: Yes, I’m fuming mad! But I won’t admit it!
“Because of the watermelon? I can go buy another one somewhere else.” Yu Minglang thought all the way, but he couldn’t come up with the key reason.
Upon hearing him still mention the watermelon, Xiao Qian angrily pushed him. “Get out of here!”
“I won’t leave, this is my wife’s house, why should I leave?”
Why the hell! It’s been so long since they last met, it’s fine if he doesn’t “get in,” but he wants him to leave too?!
“You go find your female classmate who needs makeup even when wearing pajamas. Go reminisce with her about the past. My little temple can’t accommodate such a great man like you, who kindly gives your female classmates watermelon. Yeah, tomorrow you can play tennis with her. Aren’t you good at playing? Skipping class to play, too. Do you guys know how much you support the foundation of the country’s sports? Does the Family Planning Commission know about this?!”
Yu Minglang silently analyzed Xiao Qian’s rather explosive words for almost 3 seconds before drawing a conclusion. He took a step back and checked her out.
“Xiao Mei, is your period coming early?”
He even remembers when her period comes. Although it’s still a long way off, there’s a possibility her period might be irregular. Otherwise, how could his always calm and collected wife-to-be suddenly become illogical like this?
What is the inherent connection between sports infrastructure and family planning?
“Damn your ancestor, get lost!” Xiao Qian was so angry that her liver was on fire.
“He’s over 80, can you spare him?”
Yu Minglang caught the decorations thrown by Xiao Qian just in time. He took a glance and felt heartache.
“Extravagant wife, this is made of jadeite! It’s a good thing our uncle Qi Yue gave you to suppress evil spirits. What would you do if you broke it!”
This large jadeite ornament is quite valuable, one that Uncle Qi Yue had given.
Xiao Qian didn’t pay attention to him at all, and pelted him with anything she had at hand. Yu Minglang caught the jadeite cabbage in his left hand and the trophy with his right hand, while biting on the soft and silky little silk pouch in his mouth. Oh, Xiao Mei, how could you casually throw around such intimate clothing? It would be terrible if someone saw it.
Seeing that Xiao Qian was about to lift the bronze postmodern sculpture, Yu Minglang couldn’t stand it anymore.
He spat out the silk pouch from his mouth and made a surrender gesture.
“Ancestor, play with something else, that really can’t be smashed!”
Such a heavy thing, if it didn’t hit him and accidentally hit her foot instead, what would happen!
Xiao Qian found his appearance both annoying and funny.
Her secret jealousy had mostly subsided by now. She knew Yu Minglang never thought about that stuff, and he could never have anything going on with a woman who seemed to have Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
With his persistent personality, if he had been interested in her during high school, he would have snagged her by then. They wouldn’t have lost contact for so many years. Besides, when they first met, Yu Minglang didn’t act too out of line; it was just a normal reaction when meeting an old classmate.
But despite that, Xiao Qian was still unhappy.
She couldn’t stand the thought of this green-skinned Husky skipping class and playing tennis with a little girl during all those years before she appeared on the scene.
“Xiao Mei, don’t you like Xiao Yu?”
“I don’t like her.”
“Her personality is like a tomboy, and she always says she’s careless and not mean. She was like this in school too. Did you two have any clashes at work?”
“I didn’t have any conflicts with her. Now I doubt it, did you have a conflicting past with her, or do you have a conflicting future in mind? Yu Minglang, is there something wrong with your eyes? With such a big case of makeup OCD in front of you, you still dare to praise her as pure and unaffected? Do you know what kind of people have makeup OCD? She says she’s careless and you’re brainwashed by her?”
A psychologist being brainwashed by someone is simply unbearable! She must think of a way to wash his brain back!
“Xiao Mei, have you been working too hard at your job and studies? How come everyone seems to have a mental illness in your eyes?”
Yu Minglang didn’t mean any harm; he just thought Xiao Qian was overthinking it.
“Are you doubting my profession? Who else do you see going downstairs to buy something at night in their pajamas and still has to wear makeup?”
What appears as a clear spring to men may be a super green tea in women’s eyes. Despite wearing makeup, she still put on an air of natural beauty that’s hard to resist.
“Did she wear makeup? Now that you mention it, I remember that she did look a bit different from when we were in school. But maybe female workers have social engagements after work and don’t feel like removing makeup, right? My wife is the best; she doesn’t wear makeup in informal situations.”
Xiao Qian thought to herself, how could she not wear makeup? She doesn’t like makeup, but when meeting some important patients in certain situations, light makeup can show respect for the other person. She applies a very light professional makeup, which is completely different from the concept of that so-called Rain girl.
She didn’t correct Yu Minglang’s words, but instead steered the conversation to the crucial point.
“She had the scent of shower gel on her body and her hair was still half-dry, which means she had already taken a shower and changed into her pajamas at home. She suddenly wanted to eat fruit and went downstairs to buy something, so in just a few minutes, she had to apply cream, concealer, foundation, sweep on shadow and highlight, and finally use a finishing powder. Her eyelashes were fake, and her eyeliner was made with eyeliner paste. Her lipstick was light-colored, but I suspect her original lip color was dark, so she deliberately lightened it with base makeup before applying light-colored lipstick! She also applied blush. Even for someone skilled, this whole makeup process would take more than ten minutes. She spent so much time just to buy something. Tell me, is this your idea of unaffected purity in your heart? If she doesn’t have a tendency towards makeup OCD, I’ll give you my psychological counselor license!”
Upon hearing Xiao Qian talking like Sherlock Holmes, Yu Minglang was dumbfounded.
