Chapter 232 The calm before the storm
After the sweet and affectionate dinner, Bai Yi's face was already flushed, and her cold eyes were filled with sparkling smiles, almost melting her innate low pressure and coldness into a pool of warm sunshine.
Although Ning Yuechen's face was also flushed at this time, his eyes were clear.
Just as the two were toasting each other again, fireworks exploded outside the window, sounding particularly loud in this warm and quiet space.
Bai Yi turned his head to look outside. At this moment, in the night sky where white snow was flying, there were fireworks circling, which were as gorgeous as the starry sky and as brilliant as the peaceful sea and the clear river.
The falling snowflakes fell into the glittering and golden fireworks, and under the interplay of the night sky and the moonlight, it presented a winter romance with colorful flower shadows and flowing lights.
Bai Yi looked intently at the dazzling blue English font "Happy Birthday, BY" in the air, which looked like thousands of rays of light, and suddenly he had the illusion that all this was a dream.
At this moment, she was completely immersed in the romance prepared by her lover. She dared not blink for fear of missing any surprise.
It was not until this fleeting beauty faded into calm that she felt a cool touch on her right wrist, and she came back to her senses.
I looked down subconsciously and found that there was a pair of bright and translucent jade bracelets on my hands.
Ning Yuechen looked at her with a smile on his face and said, "This is the last birthday gift I prepared for you."
Bai Yi first carefully examined the jade bracelet, then gently stroked its cool and smooth texture with his left hand, and said with a faint smile: "I like it very much."
"Since you like it, you must wear it every day from now on and you are not allowed to take it off."
Bai Yi only focused on the jade bracelet, not noticing the strange look in her eyes, and agreed directly: "Okay, I'll wear it all the time."
Today's goal was achieved, Ning Yuechen was also tired and yawned: "It's getting late, let's go upstairs and rest."
She was about to turn around and leave, but the other person forcefully hugged her into his arms. She could only pretend to be angry and punch him: "What are you doing?"
Bai Yi was taller than her, and by just lowering his head slightly, he could see the spring scenery under the thin layer of cloth. He couldn't help but lean over and kiss her delicate lips.
After the tender and tender kiss, she tried to suppress the desire in her heart, and looked at the soft person almost devoutly: "Baby, you will go for internship after the New Year, can we~"
Ning Yuechen naturally knew what she meant, and he lowered his eyes to hide the resistance in his eyes: "I, I'm still not ready, can you wait a little longer?"
Hearing her say this, Bai Yi felt a little disappointed, but still nodded in agreement.
Although she and Ning Yuechen had been a couple for nearly two years, they had never taken the next step.
At first, she hoped to let things take their own course and move on to that step, but the other party wanted to consider this matter after graduating from college. Although she was a little hesitant, she still chose to respect her girlfriend's wishes and never crossed the line.
Now Ning Yuechen's university courses have ended, and she started her internship directly after the New Year. Sometimes when the two of them are deeply in love, she naturally wants to develop the relationship further.
After all, she first realized that she liked Ning Yuechen when she started to have sexual fantasies about him.
It can even be said that her liking for Ning Yuechen started with her desire for this man's body.
The reason why I have been able to endure until now is because I love her deeply and I just want her to be happy.
It’s just that the other party has always been afraid of that kind of thing, so she can only take it slow.
Bai Yi blinked, suppressed the heat in his eyes, raised his hand and caressed her cheek lovingly: "As long as we are together, it's fine as long as you have me in your heart. We are not in a hurry for the rest."
Ning Yuechen hugged her and said, "Okay."
After the conversation, the two went to the bedroom on the third floor together, took a shower, and then went to bed as usual.
Bai Yi likes to read before going to bed, usually books on politics and economics, and occasionally he also reads some miscellaneous books.
She can finish a book in an hour very efficiently, so the book she reads is different almost every day.
Ning Yuechen is a typical college student. He reads and studies before going to bed, but when his study workload is not heavy, he will check his phone or play online games.
When they first started living together, they disliked each other's lifestyle. But after spending more time together, they realized that neither of them could change the other, so they developed a tacit understanding through constant quarrels.
Everyone does their own thing and doesn't disturb each other.
Bai Yi sat in front of the dressing table, picked up the hair dryer and began to blow dry her waist-length wavy hair. From time to time, she looked at the person who was half-sitting on the bed, wearing headphones and concentrating on playing online games.
Until his hair was dried, the other party was still immersed in the world of online games, swearing from time to time.
She put down the hair dryer, stood up, walked to the other side of the bed and lay down, picking up the new book on the bedside table.
I had just read a few pages when I heard the person next to me cursing his teammates under his breath.
She was already used to this kind of situation, but this time she did not choose to isolate the sound directly. Instead, she put down the book in her hand and took off the headphones on the other person's head.
In a slightly serious tone, he said, "Yu Chen, you will leave school after the new year and enter the society for internship."
Ning Yuechen blinked: "You have already said this."
"I have said it, but you have to listen to it."
Bai Yi was somewhat helpless: "You should make a career plan. For example, what type of work do you want to do, and what is your detailed plan for this job? How many years do you want to be promoted to? What position do you want to be in, or what kind of achievements do you want to make?"
Ning Yuechen felt a bit headache after being asked such a series of questions.
She only wanted to get the information she wanted, and then let Aunt Shi leave the Bai family and gain freedom for the rest of her life. She had no extra energy or thoughts to plan her future.
Because she had no idea what her final outcome would be if she really came to a showdown with Bai Yi.
So even if she has the future and life she wants, it is just a luxury at the moment.
So she chose to cover her ears and muttered, "I won't listen to this turtle chanting sutras."
Bai Yi was annoyed by her escapist attitude. He forcibly pulled down her arm and explained to her seriously: "Ning Yuechen, escaping will not solve any problems. You must make specific plans for your future career."
“Whether you want to be a manager or want to specialize in a field you’re interested in, I will support you. But the prerequisite is that you must know what you want to do in the second half of your life.”
Ning Yuechen could only talk nonsense with her: "I still have to write my graduation thesis after the New Year."
"Isn't writing a paper a simple thing? Is there any conflict between this and finding a job?"
"I feel there is a conflict. I want to finish my thesis and get my degree certificate first before I think about work."
Bai Yi vaguely felt that there was something wrong with her attitude, because Ning Yuechen was not such an unambitious person. This could be seen from the outstanding work ability he had demonstrated in the company during his college years, and that he had his own ambitions in his career.
But she couldn't understand why someone who was so motivated and well-planned before would develop such a negative mentality when it came time to graduate?
Is it graduation fear?
