A Billion Dollar Exchange

Chapter 222 - Perfect Plan



''You know, Jin Yue never did relationships before. He used women and settled them when he was satisfied, no strings attached, it is really surprising to hear that he planned on getting married.''

Freya explained in a mild tone. Just listening to it, it looked as though she was telling Xin Yong that she was a very lucky woman, but Xin Yong did not know why she felt as though she was warning her that she would soon be dumped.

''Yeah, he told me about his past, he's changed now.'' She replied with a smile.

''That's good to hear.''

''And you both are so young, how is it that you are married?''

Xin Yong asked, seemingly surprised.

Freya giggled lightly and she glanced at Dan for a bit.

''When you find love, you hold on to it and never let go. Dan found me and he held onto me before someone else would snatch me away.''

The three of them burst out laughing, almost at the same time, the waiter returned with a large tray, setting down the dishes on the table.

Dan passed Xin Yong dish to her and her chopsticks. Everyone ate quietly, throwing in a joke once in a while.

By the time they finished eating, it was already past six. Xin Yong knew she had to be home soon; else she would have to lie to Jin Yue again.

''Where are we going first? ''

She asked as she dropped her chopsticks.

''Your lips…''

Dan signaled her that her mouth was stained, Xin Yong quickly picked up a serviette but he was faster than her. Her whole body froze when his hand came in contact with her lips, but before she could dodge him, he had already wiped her lips clean.

An evil glint flashed past Eva's eyes. She couldn't really understand why her plan was just working perfectly.

Xin Yong was so startled that she blushed unwittingly. At that moment, she did not know whether she was expected to thank him or scold him.

''Hubby, why did you touch another woman, I'm jealous!'' Eva faked a pout and Dan chuckled.

''Xin Yong had a stain on her lips, so I helped her clean it. You shouldn't be jealous, you know I have eyes just for you.''

He stretched his hand and caressed her face gently.

''You sure know how to flatter. Alright, we should get going.''

Freya replied excitedly as she stood up from her seat.

Xin Yong heaved a sigh of relief, standing up too, finally!

Dan went on to pay for the meal as they stepped downstairs.

''So we would get the neck ties first, I'll need to get one for hubby too, that should be enough, we can order a cake, what do you think?''

Xin Yong nodded, it was already quite late and she needed to be home soon.  As though it was planned her phone began to ring. She peered at the screen and realized that it was Jin Yue.

She sighed and walked to a side before picking up the call.

''Sweet, you're not home yet?''

Xin Yong could hear the sound of rushing water; she knew he wanted to take a bath.

''No, I'll be coming back soon, there is food in the fridge, eat up, don't wait for me okay?''

''Don't worry, just come back soon.''

''Okay, I love you.''

''Love you too''

Xin Yong stared at her phone for a while before putting it back into her bag. Dan had returned, so they drove off.

Xin Yong drove in her car whilst Freya and Dan drove in the one they came with.

They returned to the ties shop from the day before, the attendant recognized Xin Yong immediately and rushed to welcome them. She was elated that they had returned as promised. Quickly she rushed in and got the new ties from the day before.

The ties were all pretty so it took them a while to pick a few.

Xin Yong selected two, a dark blue and a black colored. She was confused on the one to pick between the two, so she turned to ask Dan.

''Between the two, which would you, as a guy prefer?''

Dan inched closer and took a closer look at the ties.

Xin Yong was so lost in looking at the ties that she did not notice that Freya had stepped aside.

''Well, this would look good, but I would prefer the black. ''

Xin Yong nodded as she continued to stare at the ties intently, she did not realize how close the both of them where. After sometime, she finally decided to go with the black, it was prettier and she was sure Jin Yue would like it.

Freya bought a tie for Dan too and they both left the Tie shop after making payments. It was past eight when they left the tie shop; Xin Yong hurriedly waved them both goodbyes.
