Chapter 1429: I've been waiting for you to ask me out for so long

Human panic often stems from ignorance.

And mastering relevant knowledge is the only way to break through that panic.

Liu Xin'ai felt that Qin Yiyan's choice was correct.

But... how much of his panic was genuine, and how much was born because of Liu Xin'ai?

This question made Liu Xin'ai's emotions somewhat complicated.

It also made her unable to speak for a moment.

Seeing Liu Xin'ai in silence, Qin Yiyan asked somewhat uneasily, "Xin'ai, do you think I'm annoying?"

Liu Xin'ai shook her head immediately and replied, "Learning more things is quite good; I've also been exploring new fields recently."

After saying this, Liu Xin'ai began to patiently explain things to Qin Yiyan.

Liu Xin'ai explained very meticulously.

But Qin Yiyan...

He didn't pay attention to what Liu Xin'ai was saying at all; his attention was entirely drawn to her gentle profile.

His gaze was very soft, as if in this moment, his entire world contained only Liu Xin'ai...

Outside the room, someone was crouching and eavesdropping.

Hearing that Qin Yiyan had come to find his sister and had even been invited into her bedroom, Liu Qingze's alarm bells rang immediately!

However, when he heard the voices coming from inside...

He was stunned.

He wondered what was wrong with everyone; why was everyone studying medicine lately?

Was this some new trend?

Liu Qingze heard about soreness in the waist, but didn't detect anything fishy, and eventually left in a daze.

But not long after Liu Qingze left, Liu Xin'ai stopped her explanation.

Then, she asked Qin Yiyan, "Do you have time the day after tomorrow?"

Qin Yiyan's voice was deep and pleasant: "I have time every day."

"Then let's... go out for a stroll together."

Qin Yiyan froze.

Subsequently, a smile slowly crept onto his cheeks.

Liu Xin'ai glanced at the person beside her and discovered his smile was huge.

And foolish-looking.

It didn't fit Qin Yiyan's style at all.

But the happiness in that smile was very pure, so pure that... Liu Xin'ai felt awkward all over.

Liu Xin'ai withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes, and said in a muffled tone, "If you don't want to, forget it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yiyan hurriedly grabbed Liu Xin'ai's wrist, his voice revealing urgency: "Who said I don't want to? I've been waiting for you to ask me out for so long!"

Asking him out herself?

Fine, it was indeed her who asked him.

But why did it sound so different coming from Qin Yiyan's mouth?

How ambiguous!

Liu Xin'ai pulled her wrist back.

She emphasized seriously, "Don't overthink it; it's just... just to relax together, that's all."

It was already too late to tell Qin Yiyan not to overthink it.

Qin Yiyan had already imagined quite a lot!

However, he didn't intend to say it out loud, and instead followed Liu Xin'ai's lead, responding, "Mm, just to relax, that's all."

Qin Yiyan didn't say anything else.

Yet he managed to make those simple words sound lingering and affectionate, and the way he looked at Liu Xin'ai was incredibly doting!

Liu Xin'ai felt the situation was not right, so she said, "Let's stop here for today; if I explain too much, you won't be able to absorb it."

"Okay, then can I come find you again next time if there's something I don't understand?"

"You can."

"Thank you, Xin'ai!"

Qin Yiyan had already gained extra rewards today, so he didn't linger.

He put away the book and left quite decisively.

And the moment Qin Yiyan turned around, Liu Xin'ai looked over.

In the depths of her eyes, a light that no one could understand flashed by.

Qin Yiyan did not know Liu Xin'ai's true thoughts.

At this moment, he was very happy.

And he felt that the day after tomorrow would be a very important turning point!

He had to make good use of it!

Because he attached such importance to it, Qin Yiyan even called Lin Ze over the next day.

Lin Ze thought his boss wanted to understand the recent situation of the company and specifically brought a pile of documents.

But the result?

Lin Ze was dumbfounded the moment he walked in!

He saw that Qin Yiyan's home was hung with many new clothes.

Each one is worth a fortune.

Seeing Lin Ze arrive, Qin Yiyan beckoned to him and asked, "Which one of these do you think suits me best?"

Lin Ze was still a bit surprised inside.

However, his excellent professional training allowed him to quickly compose his emotions and praise him very earnestly: "Any of them would suit your style."

This praise did not make Qin Yiyan happy.

He narrowed his eyes, his voice laced with impatience: "Did you not hear clearly what I said? Which one is the most suitable?"

"Then... this one. Wearing this black suit to attend an event is mature and steady."

Attend an event?

Qin Yiyan turned back to look around carefully, then asked again: "Do you think these new clothes were prepared for business events?"

"Uh, aren't they?" Lin Ze asked cautiously.

"Of course not!" After saying this, Qin Yiyan waved his hand, having people take all the clothes away.

Lin Ze could feel his boss's anger and hurriedly lowered his head, saying: "Sorry, Boss, I misunderstood your meaning!"

Qin Yiyan took a deep breath, steadying his mood.

Then he said in a muffled tone: "You didn't say anything wrong; on the contrary, you reminded me that it was my choice that was the problem."

Qin Yiyan was truly unhappy.

But his unhappiness was directed at himself.

What on earth was he thinking to have chosen all sorts of suits?

Was he going to a meeting or a date!

Qin Yiyan's irritable expression made Lin Ze gradually realize something.

His eyes turned slightly, and Lin Ze tentatively asked: "What kind of occasion are you preparing these new clothes for?"

"A date."

A... date?!

These two words shocked Lin Ze.

Because he was too stunned, his brain didn't even think before he asked directly: "A date with whom?"

Qin Yiyan glanced at him impatiently and retorted: "Who do you think!?"

His gaze was sharp and dangerous.

Lin Ze instantly sobered up.

Realizing what Qin Yiyan meant, he hurriedly said something pleasant: "Congratulations, Boss!"

This sentence was quite pleasing to the ear, and Qin Yiyan's expression relaxed significantly.

This change made Lin Ze decide to keep up the good work and solve his leader's worries: "Since it's a date with the Madam, the attire should be a bit more lively."

"How so, 'lively'?"

Qin Yiyan was genuinely asking for advice, but his question stumped Lin Ze; Lin Ze did not know how to describe it.

After considering for a moment, Lin Ze said: "How about I prepare some new clothes for you? You'll know once you see them."

"That works. If you prepare them well, I'll give you a bonus."

Qin Yiyan did not easily promise benefits, but once he did, it was definitely the kind that would make people drool.

Even if only for the sake of those benefits, Lin Ze would give it his all!

However...

The new clothes he had racked his brains to prepare left Qin Yiyan silent.

They were truly... colorful!

Lin Ze had been observing Qin Yiyan's reaction the whole time.

Seeing his boss's brows knotted together, Lin Ze hurriedly explained: "You only need to pick a few styles from these clothes; you don't have to keep them all."

Still picking a few?

Qin Yiyan didn't want any of them!

Especially this creamy yellow one; if it were up to Qin Yiyan, he would be the first to pass on this one.

Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
