Chapter 253: The First Meeting
At night, the woman closed her eyes tightly on the bed. The lamp by her bed gave off warm light, which lit up a small area.
Qin Muxuan opened her eyes all of a sudden. She pulled out her phone from under her pillow and turned it on, finding it was only four o’clock in the morning.
Qin Muxuan had been tossing and turning for the whole night and still couldn’t fall asleep. She sat up slowly and got off the bed. Then she walked to the French windows step by step.
As she pulled the curtain, only darkness greeted her.
Qin Muxuan lowered her head and sighed. Then she turned around and turned the light on. After that, she walked out of the room. Thanks to the recuperation during this period of time, Qin Muxuan was already able to walk by herself. She held the handrail and turned on the flashlight in her phone while walking downstairs carefully.
After she walked into the kitchen, she warmed a glass of milk. Then she walked to the sofa and sat down. With her eyes on the floor, she curled up on the sofa and was lost in thought.
As time went by, it gradually got brighter.
When Yin Youting went downstairs, he saw Qin Muxuan sleeping on the sofa. Then he stepped lightly and walked toward Qin Muxuan.
He had wanted to take her upstairs to let her sleep on the bed, but Qin Muxuan suddenly woke up.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Did I wake you?” Yin Youting sat beside her.
Qin Muxuan shook her head and sat up on the sofa. She couldn’t believe that she had fallen asleep on the sofa.
Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, Yin Youting showed a worried look in his eyes, “How come you slept on the sofa?”
“I have wanted to go downstairs to sit for a while.” Qin Muxuan said with impotence. She had tossed and turned on the bed but still couldn’t fall asleep. Never had she realized that she would fall asleep on the sofa.
“You should go up to sleep for a while. I’ll wake you up later.” Yin Youting assumed that she hadn’t slept for a whole night judging from her appearance, which truly made him concerned about her condition.
“I’m fine. Isn’t Doctor Jiang going to be here today?”
In fact, Qin Muxuan knew she wouldn’t be able to sleep even if she went back to bed. So she preferred to wait for Jiang Xin downstairs.
“Yes, she will be here around nine o’clock.” Yin Youting was still a bit worried about her seeing the tiredness on her face, “Are you really going to be OK?”
“Relax. Perhaps I am too nervous lately, so I have lost sleep.” Qin Muxuan raised her head to rub her eyes. This was not the first time she couldn’t go to sleep. Ever since she knew that Jiang Xin was coming, she never had a sound sleep.
Yin Youting nodded. Then he took a look at the clock on the wall, finding it was only six o’clock.
Emily happened to walk out of her room at this moment. She was startled when she saw Yin Youting and Qin Muxuan both in the living room and thought that she had got up late, “Young Master, Miss, I’ll make breakfast right away.”
After saying that, Emily walked into the kitchen in a hurry at once.
Soon after Qin Muxuan and Yin Youting finished eating breakfast, Jiang Xin arrived.
With a smile on her face, she reached out her hand to Yin Youting, “Mr. Yin, we meet again.”
Yin Youting shook hands with Jiang Xin and greeted her smilingly, “Let me introduce to you, this is my friend that I have mentioned to you.”
Jiang Xin looked to Qin Muxuan who was standing beside Yin Youting.
Qin Muxuan smiled to her, “Doctor Jiang, hello, I am Qin Muxuan.”
“Hi, Miss Qin.” Jiang Xin sat opposite Qin Muxuan and reached out her hand.
Qin Muxuan only hesitated for a second and then she shook Jiang Xin’s hands at once. This Doctor Jiang was easier to get along with than she thought.
“I’ve heard some of your stories from Mr. Yin. So, you are a famous designer at home.” Jiang Xin was smiling the whole time and treated Qin Muxuan like a friend.
Qin Muxuan gradually let her guard down and returned a smile, “My few accomplishments are nothing compared to my seniors.” Qin Muxuan wasn’t trying to be modest on purpose. If Gu Zijin hadn’t helped her at that time, she wouldn’t have become a real designer.
As she remembered Gu Zijin, her eyes turned gloomy.
Jiang Xin noticed the swift change of expression on her face, and then she said calmly, “I really like your works.”
“Thank you.”
“Miss Qin, do you have any new designs?”
Qin Muxuan shook her head and said reluctantly, “Due to some personal reasons, I haven’t done any drawings for a long while.”
Jiang Xin knew what were those reasons. “I am looking forward to seeing your new works. I have a friend who’s also a designer. He is making public speeches these days. You can go listen to him when you are free.”
Hearing the public speech, Qin Muxuan got interested at once. “I seldom heard designers making public speeches.”
“Indeed, but I think you must have heard this designer’s name. His name is Kenny.” Jiang Xin took a sip of the coffee on the table.
“Miss Jiang, may I audit his class?” Qin Muxuan’s eyes sparkled at once. Kenny was a famous designer in Country M. She never realized that Jiang Xin and he would be friends.
Qin Muxuan liked this designer a lot, because she appreciated his works and his design concept.
“Of course. I can introduce you to each other if you like.”
“Thank you so much, Doctor Jiang. I admire Kenny as well as his works a lot.”
“That’s perfect. I’ll find a chance to introduce him to you. Miss Qin, you can call my name straightly, actually.”
Qin Muxuan chuckled. She had a very good first impression of this Doctor Jiang. “OK, and you can call me Muxuan.”
Seeing the two women having a great talk, Yin Youting also showed a smile on his face. After telling Qin Muxuan about his leave, he went upstairs to give some space to Qin Muxuan and Jiang Xin.
“Muxuan, is Mr. Yin chasing after you?” Jiang Xin asked that tentative question to Qin Muxuan. She hadn’t known about the relationship between Yin Youting and Qin Muxuan before, but she did have lots of assumptions.
“Please don’t get us wrong. We just have known each other for a long time.” Qin Muxuan didn’t want to tell Jiang Xin that she and Yin Youting had once been lovers and could only give the runaround.
“All right. I thought you two are a couple.” Jiang Xin looked at Qin Muxuan with a look of regret and joked.
Qin Muxuan didn’t know what to say. ‘Do Youting and I really look like lovers?’
After their conversation, Qin Muxuan found that Jiang Xin was actually a very outgoing and interesting person. She even forgot that Jiang Xin was a psychological doctor.
