Chapter 10
Fade Chen was confused at the situation. He then carried the gift he bought from the mall and returned to his room.
After cleaning up, Fade Chen quietly went upstairs with the gift from the mall.
At this moment, in the master bedroom upstairs, Quin Lin looked at the laptop on the table with a blank look in her eyes. Quin Lin’s mind was wandering off and she was unable to concentrate on the content on the laptop. Quin Lin felt inexplicably agitated.
In her imagination, Quin Lin could see Fade Chen and Xenia Xu interacting intimately, and the scene of them leaving together after work resurfaced endlessly in her mind. Quin Lin could even imagine Fade Chen and Xenia Xu shopping and having dinner together.
For a moment, Quin Lin felt jealousy boiling in her.
Quin Lin sighed and comforted herself, "You’re just contractual husband and wife; the only relationship between the both of you is a contract marriage. You’re not a couple at all. Besides, an ordinary man like him could be found everywhere. There’s nothing to be jealous of."
After that, Quin Lin pulled herself together and started to focus on the computer.
However, after a while, Quin Lin’s thoughts involuntarily drifted away, and all kinds of things related to Fade Chen appeared in her mind again.
" Ah--it’s so annoying." Quin Lin was at the brink of getting crazy.
Right then, there was a knock on the door.
Quin Lin was stunned and immediately calmed herself down. Quin Lin answered the knock calmly, ‘Auntie Wong, the door is unlocked. Come in.‘
It was not Housekeeper Wong. Instead, it was Fade Chen’s voice outside the door, "Dea - Quin Lin, it’s me. My hands are full, come help me with the door."
Quin Lin frowned and said coldly, "What are you doing here ? I told you not to come to my room."
‘I, I have something important to tell you, Fade Chen said.
Something important, upon hearing this phrase, Quin Lin couldn't help but think of the time Fade Chen had reminded her to be careful of Donald Qin; Fade Chen had also used this phrase. Quin Lin also recalled that she had misunderstood Fade Chen and she had not apologize to him properly yet.
With this thought, Quin Lin sighed quietly and got up to open the door," Wait a minute, I'm coming!"
As soon as Quin Lin opened the door, she saw Fade Chen standing in front of her with a huge paper bag in his arms. Not only were his hands full, he was also holding a paper bag with his mouth.
‘Hurry up, help me pick it up. There are too many things,* Fade Chen muttered with a paper bag still in his mouth.
Quin Lin took a few bags in surprise and frowned slightly, ‘What are you doing ? What are these ?‘
Fade Chen smiled at her and said, ‘Why don't you have a guess ?‘
Quin Lin kept her poker face and refused the childish act instantly, ‘I won't. I have better things to do.
If you have nothing to say, I'll go back to work."
Looking at Quin Lin’s reaction, Fade Chen did not dare to joke around anymore. Fade Chen hurriedly said, "Quin, don’t! You’ll know when you open it."
Quin Lin opened the big paper bag in front of her doubtfully. When she saw the content, her eyes suddenly lit up. Quin Lin reached in and picked up a pile of furry dolls. Quin Lin raised her head and looked at Fade Chen in surprise, ‘How did you know that I like these—"
Before Quin Lin finished her words, she blushed and stopped talking. After all, Quin Lin was always the distant cold president in front of the public. If people knew that Quin Lin likes furry dolls, they would probably be shocked out of their wits.
Fade Chen chuckled and said, ‘When I came back that night, I went into your room. Also, the key you are carrying around with you has a little doll hanging on it."
Quin Lin turned her head around and realized that the decoration of her room was based on a cute theme and it was all pink and fluffy. There were also many cute plushies on the bed and the closet.
For a moment, Quin Lin blushed and her impression towards Fade Chen slightly changed. Quin Lin did not expect Fade Chen to be so attentive.
At this moment, Fade Chen mysteriously took out a large doll from his back and placed it in front of Quin Lin, mimicking sound effects from his mouth, ‘Quin, look at this! You will definitely like it, Ang Ang Ang..." NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
‘Ah, Doraemon! It's my favorite!" Quin Lin cried out in surprise when she saw the doll; it was as if she went back to being a teenager, hugging the life-size doll tightly. Quin Lin was too happy to let go of the doll.
Hearing Fade Chen's laughter, Quin Lin regained her composure. Quin Lin put the doll down and said to Fade Chen shyly, ‘How, how do you know I like Doraemon?"
Fade Chen pointed around the room and said with a smile, ‘The comic on your bedside and those small Doraemon plushies; anyone would know with just a glance."
Hearing Fade Chen's words, Quin Lin felt warmth embracing her heart. The jealousy in her immediately disappeared and was replaced with great joy instead.
Quin Lin's heart was filled with joy and her face was full of happiness. Aside of that, Quin Lin's cheeks were flushed, which made her, who was originally already beautiful, looked even more charming. Fade Chen's Adam's apple bobbed and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
‘Thank you!" Quin Lin's face was rosy from the joy and she thanked Fade Chen with a smile. This was the first time Quin Lin had thanked Fade Chen so sincerely. Subsequently, Quin Lin asked Fade Chen, "Why, why are you giving me presents suddenly?"
Fade Chen smiled and said, "You have probably received a call from your family. I guess that they are forcing you into a marriage which would probably upset you. So I went out to buy these dolls to cheer you up."
‘Ah, you-" Quin Lin remembered that Fade Chen was at the door of the office when she was answering the phone call and had then left,"You left to buy me a doll ?"
Fade Chen nodded and said, "Yes but I’m not very familiar with Bay City, so I asked Xenia to take me to the mall to get these dolls. In return, I treated her to a meal."
"So it turns out you went out with Xenia Xu to -" Quin Lin was a little surprised. Quin Lin thought of her ridiculous imaginations and inexplicable jealousy, she couldn’t help but blush
Fade Chen smiled and said, "Do you think I’ve gone out on a date with Xenia? So you were jealous and angry with me?"
Quin Lin blushed once again at Fade Chen’s words. She turned her head away in a hurry before snorting and denied, "Who’s jealous? You think too highly of yourself. Humph!"
"Really?" Fade Chen blinked and let out a small smile.
"If I said so, then that’s what it is. Don’t think too much." Quin Lin was still blushing profusely now.
"Well then. Sure, I will not think much of it." Fade Chen smiled and waved his hand, ready to leave.
Quin Lin suddenly thought of something. She stopped Fade Chen and said, "Wait a minute!"
"What’s wrong?" Fade Chen turned around to look at Quin Lin.
Quin Lin lowered her head slightly and said with a shy expression, "Fade Chen, I’m sorry. Yesterday, I misunderstood you. Please accept my apology." ,
Fade Chen was stunned and even a little surprised. After a moment, Fade Chen smiled and said, "It’s okay. I’ve forgotten about it
