Chapter 325: I’ll wait for him
The next day, Qin Yan thought of visiting Xi Ting’s office after her classes.
Before she got into the cab, Qin Yan texted Xi Ting: [I am done with my classes and now coming to your office to visit you.]
Xi Ting replied immediately: [Wait there, I’ll get Xi Jiu to fetch you.]
Qin Yan gave the cab driver the address and then replied: [No need, I’m already in a cab. It’s less than 20 minutes to get to your place, it’s alright.]
Xi Ting didn’t insist. [Alright, I’ll get Tong Chunian to wait for you in the lobby, then. I’m rather busy in the afternoon. I’ve got two meetings, so I won’t be able to accompany you. You can rest in my office while waiting.]
Qin Yan responded: [Mm, I got it.]
Xi Ting: [Do you crave anything? I can get someone to prepare it. Fruits? Cake? Ice-cream? There aren’t any snacks in the office pantry right now.]
These were just common day-to-day talk. But Qin Yan felt especially warm and fuzzy. It was probably the kind of sweetness that came from realizing that the other party was so thoughtful even about the little things.
That was how one could tell how important they were to the other person. It was always in the little things. The smaller the matter, the more acute the feeling.
Qin Yan smiled and thought for a while before sending Xi Ting a voice message: [You don’t have to get it prepared for me. I’ll go to the bakery to get a cake later. I know of one with really good cakes. Do you want some? I’ll get it for you too.]
Xi Ting didn’t reply for a while. Qin Yan didn’t send another message as she guessed that he must be busy. She was going to get two servings whether or not he wanted it. If he didn’t want it, she would just finish it on her own.
