Chapter 4: It’s really stunning!

　　

　　The next day, when Zhang Qiao returned home from work, Jiang Yining was putting on makeup in the room.

　　The door of her room was open. When she heard Zhang Qiao come in, she shouted outside, “Wait for me a moment. I haven’t finished my makeup yet.”

　　Zhang Qiao stood by the door frame of Jiang Yining’s room for a while, leaning against it with her hands folded. With a smile in her eyes, she said from the bottom of her heart, “It’s rare to see you dress so seriously.”

　　Last night this girl came out in the middle of the night and scared her, then she said, “Go to the bar with me” and quickly ran back to the room.

　　She had been busy all day and had no time to ask Jiang Yining. Now seeing that Jiang Yining looked like she was ready to go to the battlefield, she guessed a little.

　　Jiang Yining took her words to heart.

　　The two have known each other for many years. Jiang Yining knew that she couldn’t hide it from Zhang Qiao, so she just said it openly. She turned around and looked at Zhang Qiao, “Qiaoqiao, help me pick out an outfit.”

　　Zhang Qiao walked into Jiang Yining’s bedroom. She was not in a hurry to pick clothes for Jiang Yining, but first looked at Jiang Yining’s makeup today.

　　”Your makeup is too light.” She touched up Jiang Yining’s makeup and picked up her lipstick. “It’s a waste that Aunt Du gave birth to such a pretty girl. What’s the point of being so plain all day long?”

　　Jiang Yining is a light-colored beauty with delicate and three-dimensional facial features, but she is not aggressive and gives people a gentle and peaceful feeling.

　　She is a low-key person and dresses very conservatively. The clothes and skirts in her wardrobe are almost all simple and gentle in style.

　　Zhang Qiao had long been dissatisfied with the clothes in her closet.

　　After finishing her makeup, Jiang Yining looked at her fiery red lips in the mirror and frowned slightly, “I think it’s too red. This makeup doesn’t go well with my clothes.”

　　Zhang Qiao said calmly, “Who said I want you to wear your clothes?”

　　Before Jiang Yining could react, Zhang Qiao took her to her room.

　　Zhang Qiao opened her closet and picked out a black low-necked halter dress. The dress had a great drape and pleated design at the waist.

　　Without giving Jiang Yining time to hesitate, Zhang Qiao stuffed the skirt into her hands and pushed her into the bathroom, “Be good, try it first.”

　　After Jiang Yining changed into the skirt, she looked at herself in the bathroom mirror. This style was very different from her previous ones. After a while, she opened the door and went out.

　　She asked Zhang Qiao for her opinion, “Will it seem too…”

　　Zhang Qiao knew what she wanted to say, and said firmly, “No, most people go to bars to chat and drink, and most of them dress themselves up beautifully. It’s normal for you to dress like this.”

　　She picked up their bags and went out, not giving Jiang Yining a chance to regret.

　　After getting in the taxi, Zhang Qiao finally remembered to ask, “Are you sure He Chi is in the bar?”

　　Jiang Yining felt that the lipstick on her lips was too bright, so she took out a tissue and a makeup mirror and gently wiped off some of it.

　　Hearing Zhang Qiao’s words, Jiang Yining smiled at her with a slightly embarrassed tone, “I don’t know if he is here or not.”

　　Knowing what Zhang Qiao wanted to say, Jiang Yining said first, “You don’t understand the feeling of secret love. What if he is here?”

　　Zhang Qiao was silent for a while, “I really don’t understand.”

　　She has always adhered to the principle of never compromising herself. If she meets someone she likes, she will pursue him/her, and if she doesn’t like him/her, she will break up with him/her.

　　The uncle driving in front heard their conversation and said enthusiastically, “Little girl, you are so beautiful, if you meet someone you like, just chase him, don’t be shy.”

　　Jiang Yining was embarrassed.

　　Zhang Qiao laughed without any hesitation.

　　Before going out, Jiang Yining only had time to pick up a thin white cardigan, and she put it on before entering the bar.

　　Zhang Qiao was still wearing the clothes she wore to work today. She was dressed neatly, which formed a sharp contrast with Jiang Yining.

　　The further Jiang Yining walked in, the more anxious he became. “Qiaoqiao, you should change your clothes. It looks like I’m being too deliberate.”

　　”No, I can’t steal your limelight tonight. Don’t be afraid. Be confident.”

　　Zhang Qiao grabbed her hand and quickened his pace.

　　The bar was full of handsome men and beautiful women, and business was booming. The two went in and looked around, only to find that there were no seats left.

　　Jiang Yining had sharp eyes and saw someone getting up and leaving, so he quickly walked over with Zhang Qiao and sat down.

　　The decoration in the store is very stylish, the light is not bright, there is a lot of atmosphere, and soft music is playing. It is very different from the bar that Jiang Yining has in mind.

　　Zhang Qiao ordered a glass of wine for her and Jiang Yining.

　　Jiang Yining just looked and found that He Chi was not in the bar. She felt relieved, but a sense of loss quietly welled up in her heart.

　　Jiang Yining glanced towards the door, and He Chi’s figure suddenly appeared in her sight.

　　She was originally planning to push her hair in front of her back, but the moment she saw He Chi, Jiang Yining’s movements seemed to freeze.

　　”My colleague said that many girls came here because of its reputation. The two owners of the bar are both extremely handsome…”

　　Zhang Qiao didn’t hear Jiang Yining’s words, so she looked up at her and saw that her eyes were fixed on the door.

　　She followed Jiang Yining’s gaze and saw a tall man walking into the bar. His simple outfit could not conceal his aura at all.

　　One could tell his outstanding facial features just by looking at his profile. When He Chi looked over here, Zhang Qiao saw the wildness and unruliness in the man’s dark eyes.

　　Seeing Jiang Yining’s reaction, Zhang Qiao was sure that the man was He Chi. She sighed, “He is indeed stunning!”

　　What her colleague said was not an exaggeration at all.

　　At the same time, she also understood why Jiang Yining had been obsessed with He Chi for eight years.

　　In a flash, Jiang Yining and He Chi’s eyes met.

　　Jiang Yining was like a student who was caught by his teacher and could only smile at him awkwardly.

　　He Chi thought he had seen it wrong and raised his eyebrows slightly.

　　Every time he saw Jiang Yining, she was wearing light makeup.

　　It was the first time I saw her dressed so exquisitely. Her previous straight hair had become slightly curly long hair, with red lips and black hair, showing the intellectual beauty of a young mature woman.

　　This black dress looks a bit sexier than her previous style, but her unique gentleness neutralizes this “sexiness”.

　　He Chi changed his original route and walked towards the table where Jiang Yining and Zhang Qiao were.

　　There was a hint of surprise in his dark eyes. He didn’t expect Jiang Yining to really come to his bar. He thought she was just being polite.

　　He Chi originally had one hand in his pocket, but he took his hand out as he walked towards Jiang Yining. When he got closer, he saw that there was another girl next to Jiang Yining.

　　Zhang Qiao stood up and said, “I’m going to the bathroom.”

　　She patted Jiang Yining’s shoulder gently and whispered, “Come on.”

　　Jiang Yining: “…”

　　Her heart started beating faster when she saw He Chi walking towards her. The closer he got, the more at a loss she became.

　　The conversations around her seemed to have disappeared. She could no longer hear anything but the thundering sound of her own heartbeat.

　　Jiang Yining subconsciously tightened the cardigan she was wearing. Seeing He Chi staring at her, her ears started to burn.

　　I shouldn’t have come here dressed like this today.

　　He Chi walked to the opposite side of Jiang Yining, his dark eyes seemed to be filled with a bit of surprise, “I saw you from a distance and thought I was seeing things.”

　　Jiang Yining tried her best to act natural. She smiled lightly and said, “My friend happens to be free today, so come over and sit with me.”

　　He Chi did not continue the topic. He glanced at the wine in front of Jiang Yining and said, “This wine is quite strong. I remember you can’t drink much.”

　　He found it funny that Jiang Yining always seemed nervous every time he saw him. Although he looked cold, he was not to the point of being scary.

　　He Chi deliberately relaxed his tone, with a hint of smile in his words, “The bartender has prepared a few new drinks that are more suitable for you. I’ll ask the waiter to bring them to you later.”
