Bamboo Horse Teases Green Plum 01: Is it a Match Made in Heaven or a Fated Misfortune?
Is it fate or misfortune
That day was Bai Ming's 18th birthday.
"Master Bai, everything is ready."
The waiter bowed his head and said that in front of him was a young man, who had a handsome face but with an air of cold severity between his eyebrows that did not match his age.
No wonder the waiter was so respectful, this young man in front of him is the son of L City's Mayor, his grandfather is a central government official, and his mother is the CEO of Feiyue Industrial Group, a well-known company nationwide.
Bai Ming waved his hand to signal the waiter to leave, and the waiter retreated tactfully. Bai Ming took out a brocade box from his backpack and opened it with a "click".
Inside, surprisingly, was a pair of golden couple rings!
A young man with a cold and stern expression, his lips curled up, revealing a faint smile.
Two hours later, the clock in the restaurant lobby pointed to eight o'clock.
"Master Bai...do you need something to eat first?"
The waiter walked over nervously and asked in a trembling voice, "S-sir?"
"Get out!"
Bai Ming's tightly pursed thin lips moved slightly, and after the waiter walked away, he took out his mobile phone and pressed the quick dial key "1".
"Sorry, the user you dialed is currently out of service."
Bai Ming furrowed his brow and dialed another string of numbers. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.
Time passes minute by minute and second by second, the wall clock shows 9 o'clock.
Bai Ming raised his hand, his eyes cold as ice!
The waiter came over, standing still, his two small legs trembling straight.
"Master Bai... you... have any orders?"
"Bring wine!"
Bai Ming let out a loud roar, scaring the waiter so much that he almost knelt down on the spot.
An hour later, on the table, there were three empty vodka bottles.
And that white young master who had been drinking on an empty stomach for an hour was now lying limply on the table, apparently drunk!
"Master Bai... Master Bai... Where does your family live? We'll send you back home!"
The waiter pushed Bai Ming who was drunk and lying on the ground.
……
In Bai Ming's private apartment, on the spacious sofa, lay Bai Ming, dressed neatly.
After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, and in the daze, a blurry white figure was sitting in front of him.
"Xiao Yue?"
Bai Ming's wine intention is still very strong, but he vaguely remembers that today is his birthday, booked a couple's private room and made an appointment with Pei Yue, but one night passed, and Pei Yue, that stinky girl, didn't come!
"Hmm..."
A vague figure at the side responded softly, but still kept her back to him.
Is this in a dream? His little Yue, isn't such an elegant and delicate girl!
"Why don't you come?"
Bai Ming struggled to prop up his weak body with his arm, and from behind, he wrapped his arms around the girl, closed his eyes, and buried his head in the girl's white and tender neck.
The girl had a faint fragrance on her body, which was a scent that Bai Ming had always liked.
He took a deep breath, somewhat puzzled, this dream, how is it so real?!
"Xiao Yue..." He muttered, lightly kissing her neck.
"I..." The girl hung her head and spoke in a very low voice.
"Xiao Yue... I love you!"
Bai Ming closed his eyes and stroked her neck, whispering softly in her ear, his hands wrapped around her waist, pulling her down onto the bed, quickly pinning her beneath him.
The girl didn't struggle or respond to Bai Ming's passionate words of love, but instead covered her eyes with her palms.
"Bai Ming... my dad..."
The girl's voice was a little choked, and Bai Ming was drunk to the point of being out of tune, didn't hear clearly what she was saying, lowered his head, eagerly searching for her lips.
"Xiao Yue... I love you... You also love me, right?"
Bai Ming half-closed his eyes and finally found the girl's pink lips. Without waiting for her response, he tightly pressed his lips against hers.
"Hmm...hmm..."
The girl struggled, but Bai Ming had transformed into a wolf at this time and did not allow her to resist.
An urgent kiss moved from the lips to the neck, and hands also wandered restlessly on her body, probably feeling that clothes were in the way. With a burst of strength, "ripped" open her clothes...
"Bai Ming you big idiot, don't..."
……
The next day, Bai Ming woke up with a severe headache and vaguely felt that he had eaten Pei Yue in his dream last night.
You dead girl Pei Yue, how dare you stand me up last night!
Bai Ming leaned against the big tree on the side of the road that Pei Yue had to pass by after school, and saw a familiar figure from afar. Bai Ming was a bit puzzled, this girl usually smiled and ran over as soon as she saw him, but today, she was walking with her head down, looking like she was deep in thought.
Whatever, first figure out what happened to her last night's appointment, this young master's anger has not dissipated yet! If I don't teach her a lesson and discipline her, this girl's audacity will only get bigger and bigger!
"Pei Yue, you dead girl, why did you stand me up last night and make me wait for several hours!"
Bai Ming dragged Pei Yue in front of him and interrogated her fiercely.
Who would have thought that Pei Yue raised her head, her eyes were slightly red and swollen, she shook off Bai Ming's hand, then without warning, she slapped Bai Ming with great force.
Before Bai Ming could react, Pei Yue had already run away!
Bai Ming was stunned on the spot, covering his face, wanting to chase after her, but he was still angry in his heart. How could he swallow his pride and go chasing after her? All he could do was shout loudly at the distant figure running away from him.
"Dead girl, you run! If you have the guts, run for your whole life!"
Bai Ming's words were originally just angry talk. But that dead girl named Pei Yue, from that day on, really disappeared completely from his sight!
……
Twelve years later, inside "Yueyang" fast food restaurant in G city.
Bai Yue helped clean up the dishes while saying to his mother in a spoiled tone.
"Mom, you're almost sixty years old, just enjoy your life and don't worry about me anymore. I have my own plans for my marriage."
Hu Xinbai glared at his daughter, "Forget it, you don't have to give me the 'forget-me-not' soup, what's the point of expecting you? I reckon even if I wait another ten years, I still won't get to enjoy family bliss!"
"Mom, then don't expect me, isn't there still Xiao Yang?" The Xiao Yang that Pei Yue mentioned was referring to her eight-year-younger brother Pei Yang.
"Older sister, I'm only twenty!"
Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives. A handsome young man with a big stride and a bag slung over his shoulder walks in, smiling as he pinches Pei Yue's tender face.
"Sister, I think you should take advantage of your youthful face and get married soon, it would also fulfill mom's wish!"
It was already past lunchtime, and several employees had also finished work. The store was empty of outsiders. Pei Yang picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. On the screen, a midday news program was being broadcast.
"...The municipal government of G City has changed, and the new mayor is the youngest in history. Here is a brief introduction to the new mayor: Bai Ming, 30 years old, Harvard Business School graduate..."
The mother and her two children, who were originally frolicking around, unintentionally heard the name on TV and looked up at the same time.
Hu Xin and Pei Yue's faces changed slightly, but only Pei Yang stared at the cold face on the screen with a look of surprise.
"Huh, older sister, it's Ming-ge!"
Hu Xin snatched the remote control from Pei Yang's hand and "slapped" it shut.
"You stinky brat, he's the mayor, we can't afford to mess with him! You, if you dare to privately go find him, I'll tear you apart!"
Sternly, he glanced at his silent daughter with a thoughtful gaze, patted his son's head and signaled him to go eat.
"Oh..." Pei Yang reluctantly went into the kitchen and obediently brought out the meals for the three of them.
……
At the same time, in L City's Bai family.
Bai Ming sat on the sofa in the living room, impatiently taking a sip of tea.
"Uncle Zhong, where's my mom?"
"Third Master, please wait a moment, Madam said she will be back soon."
A woman in her fifties with a lingering charm walked in as the gate opened and sat down beside Bai Ming.
"Ding ding!"
Bai Ming furrowed his brow, "Mom, I'm not a kid."
"Baby!"
Xiao Ji smiled and changed her tone, only in front of a few sons, she rarely put on such a loving face.
"Mom! I'm leaving!"
Bai Ming's face showed a disgusted expression as if he had eaten dog feces, and he stood up wanting to leave.
"Oh dear! Baby son, Mom is in a hurry to call you back, there's something big and joyful to tell you."
Xiao Ji's face lit up with a smile, and she reached out to pull her son over. Bai Ming had no choice but to sit back down again, but instead of asking questions, he simply picked up his tea cup once more and began sipping it slowly.
Since Pei Yue's disappearance, his heart has been as still as stagnant water for years, and nothing can surprise him. Even being appointed as the mayor of G City didn't bring him a hint of joy.
Lina is going back home.
Xiao Ji spoke out the news, expecting to see her son's delighted reaction, but instead, Bai Ming responded with a gloomy face and a faint "en".
"Uh-huh."
Xiao Ji was used to her son being expressionless, even when he was happy, he didn't know how to smile, so she continued speaking.
"You and Lina are both thirty years old, it's time to get married. I've discussed with your uncle, we think it's better to settle the marriage within these two months."
Bai Ming slapped the tea down on the tea table and stood up with a whoosh.
"How many times have I said it? I won't marry her, if anyone is going to marry her, let my brother marry her!"
Bai Ming didn't wait for Xiao Si to react, and he had already taken big strides towards the door.
Bai Ming got out of the door and pulled out a phone in the car.
"Hello, is there any news about her?"
The person he wants to marry can only be her! If it's not her, he'd rather die alone!
"Third Master, I'm sorry!" The other party apologized tactfully.
"Hmm, no wonder you, after all these years! Keep looking." Bai Ming pinched his brow and hung up the phone.
In the blink of an eye, Pei Yue had been gone for twelve years, but the silhouette of her leaving that year was still etched vividly in his mind. Every time he remembered it, it made his heart ache like a knife cut!
When he was eighteen years old, after saying those words to her, he hardened his heart and didn't go look for her, thinking that she would be like before, after making him angry, she would come back with a pout and ask him to forgive her.
A whole week had passed and yet she still hadn't come looking for him.
Bai Ming, who had been living on her own for a year after a falling out with her parents, was nowhere to be found at school, so he finally couldn't help himself and ran back to the government compound where she lived.
But little did she know, her home was like a place that had been looted, not only were there no people, but even the furniture had all been moved away, leaving only four bare walls.
At that time, he was just a student and could only get limited information. When asking people in the big yard, they all kept silent about the Pei family's affairs, only telling him.
"Kids, you don't need to know about these things!"
He couldn't understand it. Even if something happened to the Pei family, with his feelings for Pei Yue, she wouldn't just move away quietly with her family without a word.
But most importantly, after all these years, he still can't figure out why she slapped herself so hard that day?
