"No."
"Oh," Ye Qing said, adjusting her cheeks to reveal a delighted expression, then jogged into the inner room. She saw Mei Langchi sitting on the bed teasing Hua Hua.
Rushing joyfully into Mei Langchi's arms, acting like a little woman, "You're finally back."
"Why so late coming back?"
Ye Qing pretended to act coy, "Ugh... it was a colleague of mine, she said there's a new jewelry store on Central Street, and the bracelets inside are particularly beautiful, she insisted on dragging me along to shop. I couldn't really refuse. So I ended up accompanying her till late."
Mei Langchi looked at Ye Qing's hand, "Did you get yourself one?"
Ye Qing pouted, "Too expensive, I couldn't bring myself to spend the money."
"If you like, I'll go with you tomorrow to get one."
"Mhm." Ye Qing nodded obediently in his arms, "Weren't you supposed to arrive the day after tomorrow? Surprising me, are you?"
"Took an early leave," Mei Langchi said, smiling as he hugged Ye Qing.
