See You Again (Time Already Knows) - Chapter 64

Chapter 64 - “Is That Not True? Perhaps Shi Jian Will Become The Boss’s Wife In My Family One Day.” 


Many things, whether real or fake, whether one believed it or not, were all just a passing thought. Yi Pei chose to believe Shi Jian, followed along with what she said, and raised a hypothetical possibility. 


Shi Jian said that he had never gotten married. Oh, turns out he didn’t have a wife. How fortunate.


Once these thoughts came up, they immediately were discarded because it simply was too hilarious. So what if the “him” in ten years later had gotten married and had a wife? Right now he had met another woman ahead of time…… The woman he wanted to marry.


The two “hims” were already two different people.


He was different now; was Ye Jiacheng? Yi Pei remained silent and didn’t say anything. Shi Jian wouldn’t be comforted by what he wanted to say. She would even be more upset. The most hurtful words were the emotionless ones that took away all the hope in someone’s heart. Even if one thought it was very reasonable, they actually only fulfilled their own selfish desires.


Yi Pei suppressed his complex emotions. He knew that Shi Jian still had hope. Thus, she had rejected him and used the most truthful reason that she could to do it.


“Oh right…… noo!” Shi Jian finally remembered the cake. She promptly opened it up slowly, then stopped. The cake had long changed shape and wasn’t edible anymore. Shi Jian awkwardly smiled. Yi Pei followed her line of sight to the cake. With his amazing temper, when he saw the cake he surprisingly said: “Truly unfortunate.”


Shi Jian: “……” She couldn’t help but laugh out loud.


Yi Pei was the same. His feelings tonight couldn’t be described as ordinary surprise or disappointment. At most, there was some kind of rejoice. What was he glad about? He had clearly been rejected and wasn’t even given a shred of hope, but he was still rejoicing.


Maybe he was glad that he met her. The original him did not get married. Honestly, Yi Pei wasn’t surprised by that. He completely understood why. He was just a boring person and had no longing for love or marriage.


The present him had a very strong longing for love.


The present Shi Jian was also very relaxed. Everything had been explained. Yi Pei probably didn’t like her anymore. Who would like a married woman? Ew. Why would she still think of herself as a married woman? Clearly she was only a youthful girl in her early twenties.


Shi Jian pursed her lip slightly and raised her head. Her eyes blinked along with the stars above her head. Once, twice.


Diandian, your dad is being so annoying right now.


The cake was ruined, so Shi Jian invited Yi Pei to eat roasted sweet potatoes. The roasted sweet potatoes were suggested by Yi Pei. “I remember the first time we met, you came over with two potatoes. They smelled pretty good…… I think that sweet potato stand is nearby?”


That’s right. Shi Jian excitedly went to buy two sweet and pink potatoes. 


But Yi Pei still didn’t eat any, probably because he couldn’t down anything after that drinking party. Her colleagues were still at the bar so Shi Jian still had to go back. Because of his identity, Yi Pei didn’t walk her in. 


Before getting into his car, Yi Pei remembered that he had forgotten to say the most important words. At the last minute, he added: “Happy birthday, Shi Jian.”


Shi Jian smiled delightedly: “Thank you, President Yi.”


The respectful tone from before was finally gone. Yi Pei said, “See you.”


“See you.” Just as Shi Jian was about to wave, Yi Pei spoke again. He was still worried that his impatience would make her avoid him like the plague, Yi Pei thought for a moment and said, “Don’t mind what I said tonight.”


“I don’t mind. Not at all.” Shi Jian shook her head and said with a smile, “Honestly, I am very fortunate. Hehehe……”


He really liked seeing her undisturbed happiness. Yi Pei also chuckled and said warmly: “That’s good. Then I can relax.”


Shi Jian nodded slightly. Yi Pei truly was a very good man.


Unexpectedly, she had said it out loud! Shi Jian only realized that she might’ve been too casual when she returned to the Yang household, She laid on her bed and carefully pondered over it. Yi Pei really believed her?


Or was Yi Pei being polite and thought she was lying just to reject him? Did he not deny her after hearing her come up with such an elaborate and sincere lie?


Actually, Yi Pei really had thought of this possibility. But some things couldn’t be lied about successfully. For example, Shi Jian’s love towards Ye Jiacheng. Even if it was somewhat concealed, he could still feel it as a bystander. There was a strong feeling hidden in his heart. Once that name was mentioned, it just wasn’t the same.


Ye Jiacheng had hurt her. She didn’t even have any grievances towards him. What feeling was better than this? Yi Pei really envied Ye Jiacheng of this more than anything else. He envied that he was able to attain Shi Jian’s love.


Of course, there were still grievances. A lot of the time, when Shi Jian thought she was unhappy, she would scold herself. She even often thought fantastically that everything had returned, and that Mr.Ye had also returned.


That he would hug her and keep apologizing: “Baby, sorry, sorry, sorry……”


She finally wouldn’t be able to bear it and would throw herself into Mr.Ye’s embrace and sob. Then like an unreasonable woman, she would vent her anger by hitting him, asking why he did that to her.


She would sob because she regained something she lost. She would be angry because she felt extremely wronged. In the end, she didn’t regain anything that she’d lost at all. She was only left waking up with a face full of tears as she panted for breath.

Shi Jian had received an extra birthday present. There was no sender listed. The gift was a brand name watch. Who had so much money to send such an expensive gift to her?


Shi Jian still called Ye Jiacheng’s number and immediately asked: “Did you send this package?”


Ye Jiacheng did not deny it.


“Ye Jiacheng, why did you mail a birthday gift to me? And why did you buy such an expensive item?” she asked, having no choice but to admit that when she asked him this, she was still holding on to a thread of luck.


Then, Ye Jiacheng ‘s voice came through the speaker calmly and indifferently, as if he was an ordinary friend: “Shi Jian, this is what I owe you.”


Oh, so Ye Jiacheng felt guilty. Shi Jian kind of wanted to laugh. She didn’t know what to say and could only reply, “Then I will accept it, thank you.”


“No problem,” Ye Jiacheng replied, then added, “If you need anything in the future, please tell me promptly.”


“En.” Shi Jian didn’t say any more and hung up the phone. What more could she need? Don’t tell her that she would continue to borrow money from him. Or maybe she would have him buy her a house……


Mama Ye used to say that her son was sometimes very annoying. Indeed he was.


Ye Jiacheng recently also felt that he was being a little annoying, so much so that he was very displeased with his handsome face. Today when he was shaving off his stubble, he accidentally let the blade slip and blood dripped out. 


He frowned into the mirror. When a man was alone for too long, his mood would be easily ruined.


Economics magazines these days stubbornly lowered their standards more and more. They always put pictures of his face in their articles. Did people who were looking for property care if the boss of a real estate company was handsome or not? Ye Jiacheng snorted disdainfully. He had specifically criticized the media department at today’s meeting.


He didn’t want to see these meaningless articles anymore. It was harmful to his image.


The media department head continued to smile and had even patted his hind: “President Yi, this definitely wasn’t our intention. Last time the journalist who came to interview you was a woman. She was probably mesmerized by your extraordinary good looks.”


Bullshit~ Ye Jiacheng continued with his impassive face: “So it’s my fault because I naturally look handsome.”


The media department head instantly had a cold sweat: “……”


Sitting next to the media department head was a new minor assistant who couldn’t help it and laughed aloud, then covered their mouth with a hand.


Annoying! Ye Jiacheng left when the meeting was half finished. What kind of people had he hired?! Each one was as stupid as a pig head. Why was he even operating a real estate company? He was better off raising hogs.


But even if they were pigs, as long as the boss could train people, the pigs could be trained to climb trees. Ye Jiacheng was still good and “warm” towards his employees, essentially not training them. When he was occasionally angry, he would warn them with a few sentences at most, then let them figure it out themselves. 


There was no need because they had affected their own moods.


Just like how after he broke up with the little fox, his feelings were better in a couple days, which was different from his original plan.


He hung up the call from Shi Jian. Ye Jiacheng was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his office, not moving for a long time. He could see the new building Ye Mao was constructing in front of him. It was going more smoothly than he had anticipated.


He would become better and better, no matter if it was his career or…… He really wasn’t worried at all.


What about the little fox? Was she still waiting for her Mr.Right?


“I feel like Young Master Ye is a confident person.” What Zhang Kai said to him on Shi Jian’s birthday sounded by his ear, “Since he chose to break up, even if Young Master Ye has regrets, I hope he will promptly withdraw his hands and not bother our family’s Shi Jian anymore.”


“Your?”


“Is that not true? Perhaps Shi Jian will become the boss’s wife in my family one day.”

 

The boss’s wife. There really were a lot of men who liked the little fox. Even if she didn’t encounter the Mr.Right that she wanted, she really had encountered even better men, such as Yi Pei. Afterwards, Zhang Kai said another hilarious sentence. The more he listened, the more funny it became. He really wanted to suggest that Zhang Kai write a romance fiction novel. He would definitely cheer him on. 


Was it possible for the little fox and Yi Pei to be together……? They’ve already broken up; it was none of his business who Shi Jian decided to date. It was none of his business whether the little fox became Madam Yi, Madam Zhang, or Madam Gao.


A photo was sent to his phone. It was from Yi Biya, with a congratulatory sentence: “I just passed by Qingshui Park, feels like it’s about to be finished, congratulations.”


Ye Jiacheng replied: “Thanks.”


Returning to his executive chair, Ye Jiacheng asked the secretary if there were any plans scheduled. There were none.


None? He really was a pitiful hermit…… Ye Jiacheng leaned back in his chair and sent a text message to Yi Biya: “Do you have plans tonight? If not, would you like to go have a meal?”


Yi Biya quickly replied: “Okay, let’s go.”


Yi Biya had gone on an interview show. The host cleverly asked her about her recent love life, and had even mentioned Ye Jiacheng from Ye Mao Real Estate. 


Yi Biya denied it, and explained in a bit of an anxious tone: “We are only friends, Relatively speaking, we have a little bit of fate.”


Fate really was a beautiful excuse before the relationship started.


The interviewer naturally had to ask many follow up questions.


Yi Biya thought about it and said: “The first time we met was on the plane. At that time, I had just gone through a breakup. After that, my car had broken down in the middle of the night. I didn’t know what to do, and he came across and helped me……”


Ye Jiacheng chose a durian shaved ice for dessert, and Yi Biya ordered a tapioca pudding. Yi Biya looked at his durian shaved ice and asked: “How does it taste?”


Ye Jiacheng: “It’s not bad.” It really was not bad, but that was it.


Yi Biya calmly smiled. A simple girl without many thoughts facing the man that she liked would still have some schemes. Truthfully speaking, Ye Jiacheng didn’t reject women for having schemes, so much so that he could see a woman’s IQ level from the degree of scheming. The little fox also had her schemes. She played her cards confidently. Compared to her, Yi Biya was extremely simple.


When the two were eating, Yi Biya brought up what happened with her interview show, then said: “I didn’t expect them to ask about the relationship between us.”


“Really?” Ye Jiacheng looked directly at her and asked, “Then how did you reply?”


Yi Biya pulled on an awkward smile: “……That we are just friends.”


Ye Jiacheng didn’t say anything. Suddenly he felt his kind feelings dissipate. How strange. After he broke up with the little fox, his interests were lowered dramatically. He even lost interest in having fun and his lust had decreased.


It was probably the result of his cultivation.


He didn’t have any meat today. Yi Biya curiously asked: “Jiacheng, have you been eating vegetarian recently?”


“Yeah,” Ye Jiacheng replied, “Eating vegetarian is good for the body.”


At night, Shi Jian was listening to a celebrity radio station and heard Yi Biya’s interview. She listened in silence for a while, then pressed the stop button.


She shut her eyes and slept.


The next day, Shi Jian’s eyelids were jumpy. When she went to Yi Pei’s office for work, Yi Pei had noticed and asked her: “You didn’t sleep well last night?”


“No, I didn’t,” she shook her head. Last night she had slept especially terribly.


Yi Pei also shook his head as Shi Jian walked out of the office. After her birthday, there seemed to be a big difference in their conversations together. There was not much distinction between superior and employee anymore. Yi Pei would often ask how she was doing like a friend would.


They would also occasionally chat together, but Yi Pei did not bring up what she said that night at all. She even thought Yi Pei would ask her about the future direction of the business market.


The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Yi Pei hadn’t believed her that night at all.


Shi Jian sighed: “……Ai!


Shi Jian’s eyelids were jumpy for two days. Then, she only found out that something happened to Ye Jiacheng after she saw the news.





Author’s Note:


A certain someone is in a cast lying on a hospital bed…… hehehe.


Ye stans: Oh no, it must be a present from Yi Pei!


Zhang Kai: “Don’t talk about our President Yi like that. If he really wanted to send a present, I would be the one delivering it. I am a little angel that solves all of President Yi’s problems.


Ye stans: Young Master Ye, please don’t court disaster! Don’t tell us you want the little fox to call you Xiao Gufu?!!


Ye Jiacheng: “……”
