Hunting for Love for 101 Times

Xia Nuan went back to her bedroom, sleepless all night.

The next day, when she went to measure the size for Ye Sichen, she was somewhat listless. Ye Sichen seemed very busy and did not care about that. After being measured, he went to the rehearsal venue with Ling Yunfeng, the stage director.

Once the size of each design drawing got measured, they would soon deliver to design real costumes. Xia Nuan felt that there was no need to measure the same person’s body eight times. Besides, the clothes tailors were very familiar with Ye Sichen’s waist size. And he was getting busier and busier day by day, so there was no need to waste time.

Given the situation, when Ye Sichen was not there, she secretly told Aka that she was about to leave.

Aka was not familiar with Xia Nuan. She always felt that Xia Nuan would betray Ye Sichen. Aka also wanted her to leave, so she was willing to deliver the message to Ye Sichen.

“Mr. Ye, Designer Xia wants to leave. She told me that her boyfriend came to Feicheng City, and she wanted to pick him up.” Aka tidied up Ye Sichen’s hair and said carefully.

According to her intuition, she always felt that Ye Sichen treated Xia Nuan differently. She wanted Xia Nuan to leave immediately, so she made up a lie of Xia Nuan’s boyfriend.

Ye Sichen and Ling Yunfeng were calculating the number of people in the concert and designing the layout of the venue. When Ye Sichen heard Aka’s sudden words, he paused for a moment and then asked plainly, “Has she finished her work?”

Aka thought about it and said, “Almost.”

“Almost? Did she finish designing the children’s costumes?” Ye Sichen folded his legs. His slender hands were slightly gripped and then loosened.

As Aka heard it, she was embarrassed and also a little puzzled, “Which children? Could you please tell me clearly?”

“My two babies, and the children who are about to participate in the charity concert.” Ye Sichen said without thinking.

Aka looked dejected, “I’m sorry, Mr. Ye, I didn’t ask her about that clearly.”

She really didn’t know that the children’s costumes were designed by Xia Nuan, weren’t they designed by the children’s designer?

With doubts, Aka called the designer of children’s costumes, but the designer said that Ye Sichen’s assistant, Ken, had dismissed her yesterday because someone had already taken over the design work.

Aka hung up the phone and frowned, with a little jealousy in her eyes.

But she couldn’t defy the words of Ye Sichen, and had to persuade Xia Nuan to stay here.

Xia Nuan was shocked to hear that Ye Sichen asked her to design children’s costumes.

“Miss Aka, I am just a newbie and I’m not good at designing children’s costumes drawings…”

“Tell Mr. Ye about that.” Aka interrupted her words directly, leaving with her long hair flipped.

After Aka left, Ye Sichen’s personal assistant Ken should come.

“Ms. Xia, this is a list of all ages of children attending this charity concert. Mr. Ye asks you to design clothes according to this list, which is clear about boys and girls. If you are not familiar with them, you can measure their size first.” Ken handed the list to Xia Nuan, “When you measure the size, you ought to consult with Mr. Ye. I don’t know the details and only Mr. Ye can contact those children.”

Xia Nuan took over the list and found that there were Wuyou and Nianci’s names in the children’s list. She felt a little troublesome, “Mr. Ken, I have no confidence in myself. Can you tell Mr. Ye…”

“I can’t, Ms. Xia, Mr. Ye’s instructions can’t be changed, and he has confidence in you. Don’t let him down.” Ken interrupted Xia Nuan’s words adamantly.

After that, he left without turning back.

Xia Nuan felt helpless to take the list, even though she was a little moved.

It was only about the loss of the costume from the very beginning, but now she suddenly became his designer…

Was he really interested in her design? Or was he trying to keep her staying here?

Xia Nuan trembled slightly. She held the list silently and sat next to the table.

In order to design good costumes for the children, Xia Nuan decided to measure the size of those children first.

Xia Nuan looked at the twilight outside.

Now Ye Sichen should finish rehearsing.

She took the phone and sent a message to Ye Sichen that she hoped to measure the size for children first.

An hour passed, Ye Sichen did not send any news back.

When it was dark, the lights came up. Xia Nuan looked at the bustling night scene of Feicheng City through the balcony. She took her phone and waited for the news of the Ye Sichen quietly.

Sharp gaze mixed with anger were cast on her side.

“Designer Xia should come and ask in person.”

There was a quiet voice behind her.

Xia Nuan was shocked. She turned around.

She saw that Ye Sichen opened the door that blocked them. He wore a light grey gown with a pair of black pants, standing in a place not far from Xia Nuan.

There was gloomy countenance on his face.

Did she hope to keep a distance from him so much? It was only a short distance, but she sent a message to him. He did not send the message back, but she was not anxious about that and looked at the scenery in the balcony.

Xia Nuan put the phone into her pocket. She was embarrassed, “No, I am afraid to disturb Mr. Ye….”

“Measure for Wuyou and Nianci first.” Ye Sichen did not want to listen to her explanation. After saying it, he turned around and elegantly went to his room next door.

Xia Nuan held the cloth ruler and followed him.

Wuyou and Nianci were sitting on the carpet and playing with toys.

Seeing Xia Nuan, they called her “Ma Ma” in unison.

Ye Sichen acted like he didn’t hear it. He took a stool and leafed through something.

Xia Nuan walked over and smiled at them, touching their little noses, “Call me Xia Nuan, not Ma Ma.”

Nianci rolled her big eyes, “Ma Ma! Dad!” Her little hand pointed at the direction of Ye Sichen.

Nianci got up and wanted Xia Nuan to hug her.

And Wuyou was shaking his ass on the carpet, calling Ma Ma continuously.

Xia Nuan held Nianci and played with her for a while.

“Let me teach you, baby. Xia Nuan, read after me… Xia…Nuan…” Sitting on the carpet, Xia Nuan taught Nianci word by word.

Nianci smiled and touched Xia Nuan’s hand, “Mom, not Ma Ma.”

“I am not your mom. I’m Xia Nuan.”

Nianci looked at her Dad with a helpless face, “She is mom.”

“Yes, Mom! This is also mom!”

At this time, Wuyou took a photo from the carpet. It was Xia Nuan in the photo…

Xia Nuan was surprised. Her eyes went blank.

This photo was taken when she went to look after Wuyou and Nianci from the very beginning. Everyone who went to work there must get a work permit, so everybody had to take a photo.

The only difference was the size between this photo and her work photo.

Ye Sichen’s face was slightly red, and he hid the shyness in his eyes. He closed the book and asked Xia Nuan, “Does Ms. Xia like to see them happy?”

“Well, I like it.” Especially seeing them smiling happily, she would temporarily throw away all the troubles.

“Every time they call you mom, they are happy. How could you bear to deprive their happiness?”

“…” Xia Nuan was speechless.

Ye Sichen did not want Xia Nuan to change the way that Wuyou and Nianci called her.

But it was not inappropriate. However, Ye Sichen had enough excuses which left her nothing to refute.

Xia Nuan didn’t continue to correct the way Wuyou and Nianci called her anymore. She only wanted to measure the size of the two children first, and then left.

It’s obvious that children at this age had ADHD, and she had to wait for them to fall asleep. So, she decided to take a bath for them first and comfort them to sleep.

When Xia Nuan proposed to take a bath for the two babies, Ye Sichen went to the bathroom and mixed the hot water. After the water was mixed suitable, the two babies were placed in the bathtub.

The little guys were of great joy, playing in the water.

Undoubtedly, Xia Nuan and Ye Sichen were wet all over.

“Mr. Ye, you can go out first. I can deal with them by myself.”

“Taking a bath for them is not as easy as before. I am afraid that you would be tired by yourself.” Ye Sichen did not intend to leave. He put Wuyou standing in the bathtub and helped Xia Nuan wash Wuyou’s back.

“It doesn’t matter.” She felt a little uneasy beside Ye Sichen, “You would be exhausted to both take care of the babies and have a rehearse tomorrow. You ought to ask someone to help you.”

Xia Nuan said this and frowned.

Ye Sichen looked at her with a light smile, “I’ve already gotten used to it.”

Then he got up and was ready to leave.

It could be seen that she did not want him to stay here.

“Health is the most important thing. You ought to gather your strength to hold a concert.”

As Xia Nuan said to Ye Sichen, Nianci stretched out her hand to get a piece of soap. But the soap was easy to slip when it touched water, and slammed into the ground.

“Ma Ma, I want the soap! The soap!” Nianci pulled the Xia Nuan and called her Ma Ma instead of Mom.

Xia Nuan didn’t know the soap was fell on the ground. So, she touched Nianci’s nose affectionately, “Well, I’ll get it for you. Our Nianci really pays attention to hygiene.” She told Nianci to sit still in the bathtub and got up to take the soap.

But she couldn’t find it after a long time.

“Soap! Soap!” Nianci pointed at the foot of Xia Nuan. When she turned around, she suddenly slipped and completely lost her balance!

She screamed and wanted to grab something.

But suddenly her waist was tightened and her lost-balanced body was firmly fixed. She was afraid that she would fall into the bathtub and hurt Wuyou and Nianci. So, she grabbed something tightly, trying to find a support point.

“It’s all right now.”

Ye Sichen comforted her in a soft voice.

Xia Nuan finally calmed down and found that she was hugging Ye Sichen. She held his neck tightly, and her wet body got close to him tightly.

At this point, he was looking at her with deep eyes like X-ray and staring at her red face.

She and he almost touched forehead, except for mouth…

Her face blushed since she found he was turned on.

“Ma Ma,”

“Hold Dad.”

Wuyou and Nianci sat in the bathtub with their head up and mouth open, looking at Xia Nuan and Ye Sichen holding together.

They said a sentence respectively, and what they said composed a sentence by accident.

Then they laughed at the same time and held together like the two adults.

Xia Nuan’s face was so hot that she immediately let go of Ye Sichen and left the bathroom shyly.

Ye Sichen seemed still thinking about her shy face. His smile was like the spring breeze.

After the little guys took a shower, Xia Nuan was ready to leave, “I go next door first. After they fall asleep, I will come again.”

“No, you stay here with them, I’ll go next door. If there is something, you can call me.” Ye Sichen in a casual home clothing walked over to the balcony directly and went to Xia Nuan’s room through the door.

Xia Nuan wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

She had no choice but to stay with Wuyou and Nianci.

Ye Sichen leaned on the sofa. He looked at the design book on the table and opened it gently.
