11. Chapter XI
I fell in love with a stranger? - Yoon Jin-hee
Mandy Chou, who was born in a wealthy family, is an only child, very favored by her parents, and has a domineering and arrogant personality. She took a fancy to Pei Yuanxiu, who was beautiful, with black hair and black eyes like her, and asked him to be her younger brother, so her parents adopted Pei Yuanxiu.
Mandy Chou's family raised Bae Yuanxiu and was kind to him.
When Bae Won-so was eighteen years old, eight-year-old Yoon Jin-hee had an accident at home, she became an orphan whose parents died, and a large group of relatives were eyeing her inheritance. The last person to pick her up was Pei Yuanxiu, a strange cousin. Of all the people, he was the only one who wanted nothing from her. And because of what happened when he was a child, Bae Yuanxiu's personality is also a little weird, and he and Yin Jinxi unexpectedly get along. Yoon Jin-hee is also very dependent on this brother.
MandyChou looked down on Yoon Jin-hee at first, feeling that she had become a burden to Bae Won-so. Bae Won-so didn't have a good time when he was a child, and obviously had a lot to do with Yoon Jin-hee's parents. Something happened to them, but it was too unfair to ask Pei Yuanxiu to accept their only daughter in turn and repay their grievances with virtue. If it weren't for Bae Won-so's insistence, MandyChou would even want someone else to raise Yoon Jin-hee.
After living together for so many years, Mandy Chou is also the agent of Yoon Jin-hee's paintings, and the two have always been faint, and there are not many topics other than work. Pei Yuanxiu was caught in the middle, and he did not force them to ease their relationship. This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
When Bae Won-so and Mandy Chou are both there, Yoon Jin-hee generally tries to lower his sense of existence. She didn't want to upset Mandy Chou.
"Sister-in-law, I'll wait for you and my brother to finish." Yoon Jin-hee whispered. Because she is not married, Mandy Chou doesn't like her to call her sister-in-law outside, and she wants to call her MissChou. But in private, especially when Pei Yuanxiu was there, she was very satisfied with this title.
"Alright, I'll see him a lot." Mandy Chou has been a person who has been used to holding her head high since she was a child, and Yoon Jin-hee's low eyebrows always pierce her nerves. As soon as she saw it, she felt impatient: "Has Elf come out lately?" "They all know the existence of Yoon Jin-hee's other personality. Compared to Yoon Jin-hee, MandyChou and Elf have a lot of contracts.
Yoon Jin-hee said good-naturedly: "Came out once." "She couldn't sense Elf's movements, but she did communicate with her. Elf leaves a message for her every time she appears. This time, she instructed her to draw all the compositions of a man in her head, and then seal them away from anyone. Yoon Jin-hee trusts Elf and complies despite the strange request. Now she doesn't quite remember what the man looked like.
"If she comes out again in the next few days, ask her to find me." Mandy Chou said.
Yin Zhenxi nodded: "She knows." β
Mandy Chou was satisfied, turned her head and kissed Pei Yuanxiu again, and said, "You ask her what she is busy with during this time?" I waited two months for a new painting. β
"Hmm." Pei Yuanxiu bowed his head and stroked her long hair: "You're tired, go and have a good rest." β
MandyChou really wanted to stay on her boyfriend, but Yoon Jin-hee watched from the side. She snorted reluctantly and stepped on her high heels to go back to her room.
Bae Won-su didn't sit down until he couldn't see his girlfriend's figure, and Yoon Jin-hee poured him a cup of coffee and sat on the single sofa next to him.
"Your sister-in-law is very busy these days?" Pei Yuanxiu asked. Both he and MandyChou need to fly everywhere for their jobs, and when one of them is free, he will fly to accompany the other. It happened that both of them were busy during this time, and he didn't find time until today. Although there are text messages and phone calls every day, MandyChou has a proud personality, reporting good news but not bad news, and Pei Yuanxiu is not at ease if he doesn't come to see it in person.
"Recently, there have been a lot of people who have been painting......," Yoon said. She doesn't quite understand either. She has always been only in charge of painting, and Mandy Chou is in charge of sales. Mandy Chou is not the only painter under her command. Yoon Jin-hee has no idea how much money his paintings have sold, anyway, MandyChou has sold her a large painting before and announced that Yoon Jin-hee has no problem raising herself for the rest of her life. The studio run by MandyChou is becoming more and more famous, and more and more people are coming to him, and some people are not easy to offend, and MandyChou needs to deal with it with great care.
Pei Yuanxiu groaned and began to think about how much work to push to accompany his girlfriend. He is a very special person, he doesn't care too much about anything, and his feelings are indifferent. He has a variety of work, photography, directing, painting, music, etc., he knows a little bit of everything, and he has talent, and what others can do with a lot of effort, he can do it well with five points. Because of this, he gets bored easily and can't concentrate on the same. So he will leave his name on many works, but he has never been popular. His girlfriend comes from an extraordinary background, and she doesn't mind that he is so high or low, and she spares no effort to support him. It's a way of life that makes him happy. Among the few people he cares about, his girlfriend Mandy Chou is ranked from one to ten, and his only sister Yoon Jin-hee is ranked eleven to fifteen, and then his son.
"Sister-in-law doesn't want you to worry." Yoon Jin-hee said. MandyChou doesn't like her, but she definitely does her best for her career (she always hopes that Yoon Jin-hee will make enough money to be independent), and she has been able to paint without interruption all these years, thanks to MandyChou's efforts. Yoon Jin-hee is afraid and adores her.
"She's always hard-mouthed and soft-hearted." A touch of pampering flashed in Pei Yuanxiu's eyes.
Yoon Jin-hee smiled vaguely. Except for her boyfriend and son, MandyChou has never been soft on anyone.
"What happened in the Maldives?" Changing the topic, Pei Yuanxiu asked directly.
Yoon Jin-hee went out alone for the first time, and Bae Won-so kept his heart in suspense. Originally, he would only send a message to contact, but in the end he still called. I didn't expect it to be Elf who answered the phone. Elf came out, which means that Yoon Jin-hee's situation is not very good.
Yin Zhenxi thought about it for a while, and said thoughtfully: "It's just that I met a good person who is enthusiastic, and I don't fit in." She doesn't remember the other party's name, because the painting is sealed, and she doesn't remember the other party's appearance very well, only vaguely remembers a little plot of the two getting along, and the remnants of the other party give her a feeling that it is not bad but domineering and naΓ―ve. However, it is rare for her to paint so many portraits, which shows that the other party left a very deep impression on her at that time, which made her inspired. Moreover, Elf seems to have something happened with the other party, and when she changed back that day, she looked in the mirror and found a faint mark under her collarbone. She had seen those marks on MandyChou, who said it was a "kiss mark".
Yin Jinxi's cheeks were uncontrollably flushed. She didn't know what was wrong with Elf, who loved to play, but wouldn't joke about it unless there were special circumstances. She ...... to the man
Pei Yuanxiu looked at her thoughtfully: "You are twenty years old." "It's like a blank sheet of paper, and I've never been in love. They can be regarded as growing up in the United States, and Yoon Jin-hee's situation is quite rare. Mandy Chou eighteen years old adult gift is his first.
In the eyes of outsiders, Yoon Jin-hee may be a patient. But Pei Yuanxiu didn't think there was anything wrong with this sister, she was just introverted, not good at communicating, and occasionally suppressed and ruthless, and she would become a little different. The problems that ordinary people have, she has the same, no different. MandyChou also thinks the same way, so she never takes into account Yoon Jin-hee's status as a "patient" and is polite to her.
"Brother, I don't even remember what he looks like, and I didn't exchange contact information." Yin Jinxi saw that Bae Yuanxiu seemed to have misunderstood, and said a little anxiously.
"Male." Because of the communication in English, a "he" can be heard very clearly. Pei Yuanxiu was slightly surprised: "I also considered exchanging contact information." This is clearly beyond Yoon Jin-hee's normal level of communication.
Yoon Jin-hee: "......"
Bae Won-so: "Koreans? "Yoon Jin-hee was born in South Korea and grew up to be eight years old, so he has a sense of identity with Koreans.
Yoon Jin-hee: "......"
So in less than ten minutes, Yoon Jin-hee disarmed and surrendered, not only telling Elf what he couldn't tell anyone, but also selling Elf and recruiting the other party about what he had been in contact with Elf. Because it was no one else who was questioned, but the only brother.
Bae Yuanxiu was really surprised this time: "Elf likes it too?" "Elf is a second personality, almost the exact opposite of Yoon Jin-hee's personality, and much more open-minded. However, although Elf loves to play and make trouble, she has a strong desire to protect Yoon Jin-hee, afraid that the opposite sex will use Yoon Jin-hee's innocence to hurt her, and is full of vigilance against the opposite sex who approaches her. Every time Elf came out, there was no shortage of men who showed her affection, and she didn't accept it once. The first time a man appeared, not only did Yoon Jin-hee have a good impression, he made an exception to draw for him, and even Elf did not reject it, and left a message asking Yoon Jin-hee not to mention it to them?
"IβI don't know......" Yoon Jin-hee is under a lot of pressure. She didn't feel anything, but Elf, who was so sluggish, noticed that something was unusual about Elf.
Pei Yuanxiu: "You painted his picture, show me." β
"No way!" Yoon Jin-hee blurted out, "Elf will be angry." β
Pei Yuanxiu saw his sister's rare excitement and nervousness, and pressed his hand comfortingly: "Okay, I won't watch it." He looked at her lovingly: "Jin-hee, it's not easy to meet someone you like. Opportunities are always fleeting, you have to think about it. β
Yoon Jin-hee doesn't know what this unfolding is all about. She didn't think she liked a stranger at all, but when she was told by Bae Hara, she thought of Elf, who always put her first, making such an unusual move...... Could it be that she really developed a crush on a stranger without realizing it?
Yoon Jin-hee was at a loss.
