Chapter 225: Going Out for Fun
Chapter 225: Going Out for Fun
Ye Wanqing unconsciously took a step back until her back was pressed tightly against the slightly old wooden table behind her. Two blushes appeared on her cheeks involuntarily, like clouds in the morning light.
She turned her head slightly, avoiding Lin Xuan's deep eyes, and looked at the blue sky outside the window. She coughed lightly, trying to change the subject, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice: "The sun is so bright today, so warm that it makes me want to go out for a walk."
Seeing this, Lin Xuan felt a surge of tenderness in his heart. He tacitly did not continue to ask questions, but gently took a small step back, leaving her a more relaxed space, and said in a low and magnetic voice:
"Would you like to go enjoy this beautiful sunshine together and go for a walk?"
Ye Wanqing was slightly startled when she heard this, and blurted out subconsciously: "For example, playing golf?"
As soon as she said this, she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag. Her cheeks flushed even more and she felt secretly annoyed. In fact, she just accidentally remembered that Lin Xuan had mentioned before that Qin Huai invited him to play golf.
A subtle fluctuation flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes. He looked deeply at Ye Wanqing, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Are you really interested in golf?"
Ye Wanqing rarely showed an embarrassed expression. She gently pushed away Lin Xuan's hand, with a bit of shyness and evasion in her eyes: "You still owe me a painting, don't forget it."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked lightly towards the stairs, with a hint of self-evident meaning revealed in her back.
Lin Xuan stood there, looking at the direction she left, a warm smile inadvertently revealed between his cold eyebrows.
At this moment, his phone vibrated, and he excitedly opened the chat group with Li Chenfeng and Qin Huai. As soon as he opened it, he saw a series of messages from Qin Huai, bombarding the screen like a string of cannonballs:
Qin Huai: "Wow, come out and take a look, there's big news! @李晨风"
Qin Huai: "I just called Lin Xuan and wanted to ask him to play golf, but he said he was with his girlfriend! What's going on?"
Qin Huai: "Guess who his girlfriend is? It will definitely surprise you!"
Qin Huai: "I was completely shocked. This speed is too fast!"
Li Chenfeng: “…”
"...Could it be Ye Wanqing?"
Qin Huai: "Oh my god, how did you guess it right? How did you know?"
Li Chenfeng: "Who else but Ye Wanqing could make Lin Xuan put down everything he was doing? Is this hard to guess?"
Qin Huai: “…”
Subsequent messages flooded in like a tide. Lin Xuan only glanced through them briefly. They all had roughly the same idea: they were all waiting for the gift money. Finally, several people agreed to go play golf together.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but look up at the building, a smile spreading across his lips. As if by chance, his girlfriend had just mentioned playing golf.
Today's weather is indeed very pleasant, with a gentle breeze and warm sunshine. It is a good time for outdoor sports.
Qin Huai was attracted by the beautiful weather and wanted to ask Lin Xuan out to play golf. Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to get an appointment with Lin Xuan, but he was fed a handful of dog food instead.
Fortunately, Li Chenfeng had no other plans, so playing golf together with several bachelors was a unique sight.
Qin Huai was wearing a cool black sportswear and a stylish baseball cap today, looking young and energetic.
Li Chenfeng was wearing simple casual clothes. He was tall and had long legs. When the few of them walked together, they undoubtedly became a beautiful scenery on the court, attracting a lot of people's attention.
Qin Huai still finds it hard to believe that Lin Xuan and Ye Wanqing are back together. "Why is Ye Wanqing so desperate? She has to jump into the fire pit that is Lin Xuan to see if our bachelor lives are any better."
In the rest area, Qin Huai couldn't help but complain while drinking mineral water in big gulps.
Li Chenfeng chuckled and looked at the familiar figure not far away: "How about you go to Ye Wanqing and ask her this question in person?"
Qin Huai snorted disdainfully: "I don't have a chance, I will definitely ask if I have a chance!"
"The opportunity has come." Li Chenfeng suddenly pointed to the two people walking towards him from the front right.
Qin Huai looked in the direction of Li Chenfeng's finger, and the more he looked, the more familiar the two people looked. When Lin Xuan and Ye Wanqing came fully into view, he couldn't help but swear, "...Didn't he say he couldn't come?"
Li Chenfeng shrugged: "He said he wanted to accompany his girlfriend. When his girlfriend came, he came naturally."
This logic is really impeccable.
Qin Huai: “…”
Ye Wanqing noticed from a distance that Qin Huai and the others were staring at her and Lin Xuan.
She wore a comfortable sports outfit today, white shorts with a pink short-sleeved top, and a lavender sun-protection jacket on the outside. Her hair was casually tied into a ponytail, revealing her smooth forehead and delicate facial features.
Lin Xuan, on the other hand, wore a blue sweatshirt and white trousers. Although their outfits were different colors, they matched each other inexplicably harmoniously. People who didn't know them would have thought they were wearing matching outfits on purpose.
Qin Huai was such a person who didn't understand. After seeing the two people's outfits clearly, he said directly: "You two are wearing these couple outfits, don't you have such a good understanding of each other?"
Ye Wanqing's face flashed with embarrassment when she heard this, but she quickly regained her composure, smiled generously, and greeted Qin Huai and the others: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Xu, long time no see."
Lin Xuan glanced at Qin Huai. Although his words were a bit rash, they just happened to suit Lin Xuan's wishes. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if silently declaring his sovereignty.
He deliberately ignored the group message notification flashing on his phone screen, as if he hadn't noticed the lively discussion. Instead, he said in a casual tone, "Didn't you just say you weren't going to come? What, changed your mind?"
Qin Huai was speechless for a moment, his eyes widening: "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? Why is it the other way around?"
Lin Xuan smiled slightly, his eyes revealing an indescribable tenderness: "Wanqing suddenly wants to experience the fun of golf."
"Wanqing..." Qin Huai chewed on the name and shuddered involuntarily. The name sounded intimate yet with a hint of imperceptible possessiveness, making him, a bystander, feel a little uncomfortable.
However, looking at Lin Xuan and Ye Wanqing, both of them seemed so natural, as if this address had long been a part of their daily routine.
Qin Huai took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil: "Have you just arrived? Or are you already preparing to go home?"
Lin Xuan glanced at him sideways, his tone a bit teasing: "Of course not, we are planning to change the venue to continue enjoying it."
When Qin Huai heard this, he thought they were really getting ready to leave, and hurriedly tried to persuade them, "Leaving so soon? We've barely even reached the destination! The weather is so nice today, with the sunshine and breeze just perfect. Wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't play a little longer? It's only half past three, perfect time to play ball!"
Ye Wanqing looked at Qin Huai's serious expression and couldn't help but interrupt, "Actually, we just arrived. Young Master Qin, you misunderstood."
"Ah?" Qin Huai was stunned for a moment, then he patted his forehead, as if he had suddenly realized something. "Oh, I see. We'll move you somewhere right away. Enjoy yourself!"
As he spoke, he grabbed Li Chenfeng and signaled him to make room for Lin Xuan and Ye Wanqing. As he walked, he turned back to look at Lin Xuan, his eyes filled with a hint of pride, as if to say, "Look how sensible I am, and how good I am at reading people's expressions."
Ye Wanqing watched this scene, a smile curling up at the corner of her mouth, and finally couldn't help laughing out loud: "Has Young Master Qin always been so... straightforward and cute?"
Considering that Qin Huai was Lin Xuan's good friend, Ye Wanqing deliberately chose a more euphemistic adjective.
Lin Xuan, however, mercilessly exposed her: "He is a bit clueless, but it's good this way, he doesn't have so many tricks up his sleeve."
After saying that, he also withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ye Wanqing: "Haven't you played golf for a long time?"
Ye Wanqing nodded gently: "Yes, since joining the Lin family, I have rarely had the opportunity to play. In fact, I didn't know how to play golf before. It was Mrs. Lin who asked me to learn, and she insisted that you teach me personally."
When Ye Wanqing mentioned that past event, a hint of loss flashed across her eyes. She was indeed a quick learner, but golf was not her strong point.
Although he could barely swing the club, his technique was still average. However, Lin Xuan's golf skills were outstanding. That time, Mrs. Lin forced him to teach him how to play, and he had to take it seriously.
However, that experience wasn't a happy one. Xu Xinyi took advantage of the situation to provoke her, humiliating her in front of Lin Xuan and even deliberately causing her to fall. Although she wasn't injured, the embarrassment and humiliation she felt were still fresh in her memory.
Ye Wanqing recalled all this, her gaze falling on Lin Xuan again, her mood becoming extremely complicated: "Do you remember the second year of our marriage when Mrs. Lin forced you to teach me how to play golf?"
When Lin Xuan heard this, the hand holding the golf club paused slightly, as if being pulled by an invisible force, and those dusty memories instantly flooded into his mind.
The memories that were supposed to come finally came, bringing with them a hint of bitterness and an unspeakable emotion.
