“Seeing how well you and Ji Ziming are now makes me at ease.”
Qin Qitong pursed her lips slightly as her eyes shifted to Bi Zheng. In fact, she also had no idea what love was, but she knew that it was definitely love between her and this man.
“Qitong, you said that you guys are getting married, but I have yet to prepare anything for you two. It’s such good news, and it’s happening right before my eyes. When it happens, I’ll definitely give you a fat red packet.”
Pei Ge smiled, gentleness creeping up her eyebrows as she looked at her friend, and it seemed that some brightness had returned to her eyes.
“If you want to give us a red packet, may I ask how much you are planning to give, because I won’t accept if it’s too little.”
Qin Qitong jokingly said when she heard that Pei Ge wanted to give a red packet during her wedding. She felt that this friend of hers had changed a lot compared to before. She was no longer the same person, and what caused this change was the aloof Ji Ziming, who was currently sitting opposite of them.
“When I get married, come and be my bridesmaid. I really want my best friends to be here.”
She asked for Pei Ge’s opinion, and the sincerity in her eyes made it difficult for the latter to say no.
“I can’t be your bridesmaid anymore; I already have kids.” The latter was in a dilemma, of course, for she had not expected that Qin Qitong would give her the honor of being her bridesmaid.
“What are you worried about when I’m the one getting married? I can’t be more happy than to have a loving couple like you and my cousin give us your blessings on our wedding day. Why will I not like it? Just be my bridesmaid and don’t think too much about it.”
Qin Qitong comforted Pei Ge, only to see the latter shake her head vigorously, so she said, “Ge Ge, I’m an adult and getting married is my matter. I just need my close friends’ blessings. This wedding is for me to experience and not to satisfy my vanity unlike other girls. I don’t need to invite influential guests or hire a topnotch wedding planner. I only need to have my important people to be present at my wedding.”
The sincerity in her eyes made Pei Ge feel awkward to decline further. She shot Ji Ziming a look and finally acquiesced. “Alright, but I’ll have to ask my man if I can be your bridesmaid.”
“Okay.”
Seeing that she had finally relented, Qin Qitong heaved a big sigh of relief and spoke again. “I’ll be waiting for your updates. I’m not getting married right away, so there’s no rush.”
“Alright.”
Pei Ge nodded, then took the bottle of 1978 Lafite, and turned to peer at the two men currently engaged in a discussion with flagging interest. Their voices could not be heard.
“Qitong, how come these two are suddenly getting along? I rarely see Ji Ziming speak like this.”
She was truly confused; what powers did Bi Zheng have to get the proud and aloof man to look at him in a different light and transfer stuff from his phone?
“I think he’s just settling some techy stuff for my cousin. Don’t you already know that Bi Zheng is a hacker? He’s really good at it and can see things average folks like us can’t.”
“So that’s the case.”
Pei Ge nodded and was suddenly in deep thought.
“People did say that not many are into that field, and I did hear that they’re more meticulous with details; is it so?”
She turned to look at her friend. If this was true, she was unsure if the latter could really be happy with Bi Zheng.
“That’s right, but when hackers are in love, the average people can’t easily see it.”
Qin Qitong smiled. It did not matter what her man’s occupation was or how she interacted with him or even if they would be together forever.
“Really? How does he usually display his affection for you?”
Surprise filled Pei Ge’s face because she did not expect her best friend to be this shy when she found her true love.
“Last year, on my birthday, he actually caused the screens at the convenience stores and hotels to display: ‘Qin Qitong, Happy Birthday!’ I didn’t notice it until my friends told me about it. He did that because he wanted me to see his greeting before I got home. Those bosses thought their screens had malfunctioned. The moment I saw them, though, I knew that he’s the one behind it. That’s because, other than him, nobody else around me could and would do that.”
Qin Qitong smiled as she reminisced about that event, appearing as though she was soaked in the sweetness of love. Sitting beside her, Pei Ge was infected by her sweetness as she thought of the image in her mind: Qin Qitong standing in the middle of a road, surrounded by screens wishing her a happy birthday.
The sweetest thing was not two people being together; rather, it was that, even if one person was far away, the other would still remember their birthday and their likes, with even their mood being their partner’s weather forecast.
“Ge Ge, you have no idea how shocked I was by that scene. Thank god those people didn’t know I was that Qin Qitong. If not, they’d probably take their knives and hunt me down all the way to my house.”
Qin Qitong laughed as she gazed at her man, who was currently occupied with something. The love in her eyes was not concealed as she spoke in a tone of a woman very much in love. “There’s that other time when it’s our anniversary. He gave me a gift; I didn’t know when, but he accessed my computer and saw my grades as a student.”
She momentarily stopped talking when she noticed her boyfriend’s well-defined hand paused. This was the way he acted when he was biding his time.
She then turned to speak with Pei Ge again. “Back then, I was a teaching assistant for a professor; he went to another university to teach, while I happened to be there as a teacher, too. I was grading all the research papers of the students under me at that time and saved their files onto my computer. I didn’t expect that, on the day of our anniversary, Bi Zheng would give me this software. I was surprised, for I thought that I didn’t need those things, but he told me that the software could help me find the potential students and even prepare different teaching plans. Precisely because of that, I was praised highly by my professor.”
