When moving from the old neighborhood of the Jiangbei textile factory, most things were left in the old house there.
Because, in the eyes of Ye Weidong and Chen Fang, everything in the new house was brand new, and bringing over the old stuff would just clutter up the new place.
However, Ye Qiuâs electric bike was brought over for the convenience of Chen Fang or Ye Xue to go grocery shopping, and Ye Weidongâs old 28-bar Hongqi bicycle, which used to be stored at the congee and noodle shop, was also brought over to the garage of the new house because Ye Weidong couldnât bear to part with it.
Now, in the garage were Ye Qiuâs Mercedes AMG, Ye Weidongâs motorcycle, an electric bike, and a bicycle.
Since there were two parking spaces, it was still quite spacious inside.
Chen Fang and Ye Xue thought that Ye Qiu would drive the big Benz over, but to their surprise, Ye Qiu didnât.
Instead, he rode the Hongqi bicycle.
âRiding this bike over?â
Chen Fang asked.
Initially, it was strange that Ye Qiu was just wearing a set of worn-out clothes, which was odd to Chen Fang and Ye Xue.
But Ye Qiu liked wearing them and didnât care if they were name-brand, so the two didnât mind.
Unexpectedly, it was now Li Qianqianâs birthday, and Ye Qiu didnât drive the Benz over but rode this old-style bicycle instead.
âMom, I know what Qianqian needs.â
Chen Fang and Ye Xue were both perplexed and couldnât figure out what Ye Qiu was thinking.
When they saw Ye Qiu riding that 28-bar bicycle out, looking at Ye Qiuâs back, Ye Xue and Chen Fang covered their mouths and laughed.
However, Liu Lingxiu didnât laugh because she knew Ye Qiu was right; she knew Ye Qiu understood what Li Qianqian needed.
As Ye Qiu rode out from the security guard booth, the guards recognized Ye Qiu.
Usually, he drove the Mercedes AMG, so seeing him on this old-style bicycle, they felt a bit unnatural.
However, the two guards didnât dare say anything and only whispered once Ye Qiu rode far away.
According to the mobileâs map navigation, Peach Blossom Source Residential Area was about ten kilometers from Jiangnan Spring Club, not very far.
Now, Ye Qiu was riding fast on his bike.
While it might take others forty minutes to an hour, Ye Qiu could make it in no more than twenty minutes.
Li Qianqian, Zhou Muling, and Han Xiaowan first entered the Jiangnan Spring Club.
Originally a medium-sized private garden, it was purchased at a high price by the owner behind the club and then renovated.
Now, the Jiangnan Spring Club featured the essence of a Jiangnan garden, combined with European styles.
As Li Qianqian had been here several times, it didnât feel new to her.
But for Zhou Muling and Han Xiaowan, who were first-timers, it was naturally very intriguing.
Pavilions, rockeries, small bridges, and flowing water, with delicate willows swaying in the night breeze, made the scenery inside look particularly beautiful to Zhou Muling and Han Xiaowan.
Occasionally, the two girls would take out their phones to take pictures while Li Qianqian led them into a separate room.
This was their main activity place with Ye Qiu.
It was spacious, perfect for chatting, watching TV, singing, drinking, and eatingâeverything was readily available.
As the three girls sat down, Li Qianqian thought that Peach Blossom Source Residential Area was less than ten kilometers from here.
Driving would take less than ten minutes.
But she and Zhou Muling had walked from the clubâs entrance for ten minutes.
Li Qianqian took out her phone and called Ye Qiu again.
âYe Qiu, are you not here yet?â
âIâm on my way.â
Ye Qiu replied.
âWhy so slow?â
âAlmost there.â
Hearing that Ye Qiu was almost there, Li Qianqian, worried that he might be distracted while driving, hung up the phone to wait for his arrival.
Ye Qiu, on the road, riding that bicycle, found it a bit uncomfortable as he hadnât ridden in a while.
But he found it quite fun, at least something he never experienced in the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau, riding a bicycle.
After cycling for another five minutes, Ye Qiu saw a garden-like Jiangnan Spring Club entrance.
With a drift, he stopped the 28-bar Hongqi bicycle, where a row of luxury cars was parked.
The two guards were waiting for the friend of Li Qianqian who drove the Mercedes AMG, but they hadnât seen anyone.
Instead, they saw a plain-looking guy on an old-style bicycle stop there.
âMove along, move along.
You canât park here!â
One guard said.
âMy friend asked me to come here.â
Ye Qiu replied.
âYour friend, what friend?â
After speaking, the guard and his partner snickered.
They found Ye Qiu quite funny.
Everyone coming to this club was either rich or powerful, but this young man, dressed like a scrap collector or an ordinary laborer, didnât seem to fit in.
Ye Qiu didnât know that Li Qianqian had assumed he would drive the Benz over.
She had informed the guards, and they were expecting the Mercedes-driving Ye Qiu, not the one on the 28-bar bicycle.
Looking at the three large characters at the entrance of this high-end club.
âJiangnan Springâ
This should be right!
Li Qianqian had mentioned this place, and Ye Qiu already saw Li Qianqianâs red Beetle parked nearby.
âKid, hurry and leave.
Someone else needs this spot.â
The person he was referring to was none other than the Mercedes-driving Ye Qiu, not knowing it was him right in front of them.
Ye Qiu ignored the two guards and took out his phone to call Li Qianqian.
âQianqian, Iâm at the entrance.
The security wonât let me park!â
âWhat?
Iâm coming out right now.â
Li Qianqian found it odd.
If Ye Qiu drove here, why wouldnât they let him park?
She planned to file a complaint against the guards with the club.
Li Qianqian, Zhou Muling, and Han Xiaowan hurriedly came out from their private room and saw Ye Qiu sitting on the bicycle with the two guards glaring at him.
Ye Qiu stayed there and didnât leave.
The two guards felt that Ye Qiu was affecting the clubâs image and wanted him gone quickly.
âYe Qiu.â
Li Qianqian called out.
Ye Qiu already saw Li Qianqian, Han Xiaowan, and Zhou Muling.
All three were very surprised when they saw him.
Ye Qiu didnât drive the Mercedes AMG, and he was wearing a set of washed-out clothes, empty-handed, with no visible gifts.
At least, Zhou Muling and Han Xiaowan expected Ye Qiu to bring a birthday cake and a bouquet of roses.
But, none!
âYou, you know each other?â
The two guards, seeing Li Qianqianâs expression, were immediately astonished.
âHeâs Ye Qiu!â
Li Qianqian said.
âBut, but this isnât a Mercedes AMG!â
Li Qianqian felt a bit embarrassed and slapped Ye Qiu on the hand, saying, âYou jerk, you made me look bad!â
Ye Qiu was baffled.
How did he make her look bad?
Was it not okay to ride a bicycle over?
