Chapter 61 Plan B, C ...
Yin Ting was silent in her warm nest of Zhengqing’s arms for a time. Then she softly asked, ‘What should we do?’
When Zhengqing did not immediately answer, she also rushed to say, ‘I will also not be bossy about your working hours.’ ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘I do not want you kept waiting for me.’ He said. Knowing that she was at home waiting for him, he could not be at ease working overtime.‘Then I will not come to see you.’Zhengqing was at a loss for words; if she did not come, his heart would be uncomfortable. Sure enough, people are cheap. That was not good. Was it really checkmate?‘Why don’t we do away with the rules, and let nature take its course. When you don’t work overtime, let me know and we can go out to eat, or eat at home. If you think about it, there are come couples that don’t even see each other for a week.’ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘Ah,’ Zhengqing nodded. ‘But thinking about it, we didn’t meet very much either.’ It was the New Year, and then Yu Fei’s wedding preparations, and then the Spring festival. Things had been chaotic.Yin Ting looked thoughtful as she said, ‘Maybe our expectations and anticipations were too high and therefore, we did not handle things well.’ (Zuben: Ya think?) Their ideas were grand, but they did little to reach their goals. (Zuben: shrug*) And when expectations are not met, the heart would be aggrieved. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘My only demand is that you’re my girlfriend,’ he said, ‘the rest is up to you.’(Zuben: My only requirement is that you are there when I want you. I don’t want to have to work for it)Yin Tin laughed, ‘The person who doesn’t have demands usually has the higher expectation.’ She coughed a bit and looked up at Zhengqing, mimicking his serious tone of voice she said, ‘My request is that you do your work well, and look after me.’She giggled, ‘See your tone of voice, so commandeering.’Zhengqing thought about it and laughed as well. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘Then let’s let nature take its course.’ Zhengqing said, ‘When we are free to see each other, we will. We won’t make uneccesary sacrifies on either part. We have been told worst thing that could happen.’ Like he told Guohao, he did not feel any pressure to be a perfect boyfriend anymore because Guohao did not give him any room to manoeuvre. He had asked them to break up; there was no room, nothing worse than this situation. So even if they didn’t meet often, even if Yin Ting’s rules cause him to lose a bit, it didn’t matter. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK They were still in love with each other.‘Did your dad say you should never see me again?’‘He didn’t say that, but he said he didn’t approve of us dating. He has always been strict with us.’Zhengqing was silent, trying to analyse what her dad’s thought process was. Analysis of the intentions of the opponent was very important, so that he could deduce what his next steps would be. He knew Guohao would not do something as stupid as commanding them not to meet. But, since he asked them to break up and did not approve of their relationship, he still had control over them.As he was thinking, Yin Ting said, ‘Don’t be unhappy with this but this weekened, lets not meet for the time being. My dad just put this matter before us, for us to immediately do the opposite would be rude. Elders must say their piece and see that it has been taken on board. Why don’t we let him calm down a bit and we progess slowly, and with time, eventually convince him.’‘I think so too.’ His stance was not to come into direct conflict with a person with strongly differing opinions, but leave and consider options, and return from a different angle and change their mind. In the end, earn victory. (Zuben: The way this paragraph came out on the translators was just…I sincerely wonder if it reads better in Chinese)ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘Then you aren’t angry?’ To be honest, Yin Ting was very affected by her father’s words. But when Zhengqing told her he was waiting for her, she had no idea what to do. But in his arms, she could laugh and feel joy again. She decided: I must try again. She had not done well in the past, but she would change her way of doing things. Though she did not want to ruin Zhengqing’s glory or make him hate her, she did not want to give him up so easily. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UKIf love could be shaken easily, it must not be love.‘I am not angry; we have a long way to go. I will try to speak to your father again.’‘I am so happy you came or I really don’t know how I would have been this night or tomorrow. My mind was in chaos. What my dad said is justified, I was really persuaded.’‘So I came.’ If he hadn’t been able to see her that night, he didn’t know what he would have done.‘Fortunately, you came.’ She said softly and hugging him around his waist.Zhengqing placed a kiss on top of her head. She looked up and gave him a small kiss on his lips. With a smile, she held up her index finger for a promise, ‘Well, shall we implement plan B for our love?’Zhengqing laughed. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UKYing Ting continued, ‘If plan B doesn’t work, we will implement plan C. Why turn the car around?’Zhengqing laughed and replied helplessly, ‘Because of the corner?’‘Yes,’ she replied brightly, ‘Plan A has not worked, we go to plan B; we have to be tactful and flexible.’Zhengqing laughed again, Yin Ting glared in mock indignation, ‘I am talking very seriously here.’He laughed even harder, she did not look very serious at all, ‘I just remembered that day I picked you up when your bike was broken, and you told me you had plan A, B and C.’‘Of course.’ Yin Ting said, ‘Don’t underestimate me, ah. I am not a stupid woman. Just wait and see, I will show you how clever I am.’‘Yes, you are the cleverest.’ He replied flattering her.Yin Ting rested her head on his shoulder. She looked out the window, and kept looking. Zhengqing wondered what she was looking at: was it her dad? The hairs on his neck rose, he turned around but there was no one. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘Don’t scare me to death, ah.’ He said.‘What’s scaring you?’‘Nothing.’ He didn’t want her to know; he was afraid of her father.‘Please be more serious, tell me, in love, what is glass?’‘Same sex love.’ Zhengqing replied quickly, not wanting to think.Yin Ting gave him a light smack, ‘Chicken soup brain.’Chicken soup again? Zhengqing looked out the window,‘Wind and rain, this is love?’‘No that is rational. The glass allows you to see the outside, and the horizon, but also protects you from the wind and rain.’‘Hmm, it makes no difference to me.’‘But it is also a barrier, if you want to go out you will have to break it. Once shattered, its shards will hurt you and stop sheltering you.’‘Then you should change to tempered glass.’ He quipped.Yin Ting glared. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘Don’t be silly. Besides, one should break the glass, because otherwise, you will be stuck in the protective shell, can only look at the scenery and not experience it.’‘Ah.’Men were such puzzling creatures, Yin Ting thought as she smiled and continued, ‘Like one can see that there are lovers, but they are very far away.’‘Okay.’‘Like us now?’‘Not quite like us.’ He replied. She really liked making this kind of chicken soup jokes. Yin Ting stared at him, so he said, ‘Maybe, kind of…’Reason protected them but in breaking the beauty of reason to dream, they could get hurt.‘So we need to think of a way.’‘A way to manage our differences, and get your father’s approval,’ but he thought that the solution to the issues would be more intuitive. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘The first step for me,’ Yin Ting said, ‘is to hand over the accounts back to you. I no longer hold any deposit to meet delivery.’ She sighed. ‘After talking to my dad, I realised all those things were naïve, and would have eventually put pressure on you. Overtime, you would eventually stop complying and it would become useless; the original intention long forgotten.’‘Then I will help you keep it. We can make a date, and read the diaries in a year’s time. I am looking forward to putting them in a cabinet.’‘That sounds good.’Just then Yin Ting’s phone rang, she looked at the display; it was her father.‘It’s my dad.’ She said. Both their expressions collapsed. Seeing their mirrored expressions, they laughed at each other. She picked up the call. Her father asked her where she was and asked her to come back home quickly. Yin Ting replied she was on her way.‘I’ll go with you.’ He said.Her expression became alert. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK‘Not to talk to your dad, don’t worry.’ He said ruffling her hair, ‘I want the diary pages. I was here for them anyway and since we aren’t going to meet up this weekend, I want the pages.’She laughed, ‘Just like a kid,’ she teased.Yin Ting returned to their house and quickly came back with the diary pages. As she was about to run off, he pulled her back and stole a long kiss before he let go.Yin Ting ran back to their apartment with a smile on her face, and found her dad in the sitting room staring at her. She put on a bright expression, ‘Dad, don’t be annoyed. We have talked and we see where you are coming from. We will pay attention.’She did not say they were breaking up. Guohao made a non-comittal sound.‘Why don’t we go fishing tomorrow?’ she suggested.Guohao did not reply for a bit, and then he said, ‘Fish what fish? It will be boring with you. Let’s go and see a movie.’Yin Ting grinned, ‘Alright.’‘Then the day after tomorrow we’ll go shopping, I want you to help me pick some clothes.’(Zuben: Daddy is a sore loser)‘Ok,’ she replied still smiling. ALLABOUTMYNOTHINGS.BLOGSPOT.CO.UKGuohao watched her for a while, then without any more petulant words, he returned to his room.Yin Ting rushed to her room and called Zhengqing, ‘Are you driving? Not yet, ah. I just had a brief moment with my dad.’‘What happened?’‘He wants to go to the movies tomorrow and shopping the day after.’Zhengqing laughed, ‘So he’s declaring war?’‘I think he also has his own plan B.’‘Yes.’‘Please be more serious, setbacks equal incentives.’ Yin Ting was fired up.‘That is the best attitude.’‘Please be more serious, do you know why the car gets powered by petrol or diesel?’Zhengqing laughed, ‘Xiaoting, with this kind of setback, other people will be sad, but you’re happy. Is your brain chicken soup?’‘No, I am just very motivated.’‘Alright, why is a car powered by petrol?’‘So that we can cheer, cheer, cheer up!’Zhengqing burst out laughing, ‘So childish.’‘I am not!’‘This is childish.’‘It is not.’Zhengqing could not help but laugh as he drove home; so you can shout cheer cheer cheer.But while father in law setting his plan B in motion, it looks as though they would have to work hard to cheer in the future.
