The Mismatch Was Supposed to End Chapter 10

Xing Ying and Josh met abroad. At that time, Josh had just quit her job and went to Xing Ying's company as an investment consultant. After climbing up step by step to become the company's investment manager, she suddenly quit. She simply didn't want to do it anymore and felt it was boring.

That was Xing Ying's own company and had nothing to do with the Xing family, so Josh didn't notice it at first. Mainly because she didn't like to delve into these things, and Xing Ying herself didn't say anything.

At the beginning, because of her outstanding talent and sharp vision, it was difficult for her not to be discovered by Xing Ying.

Then they met each other.

On the day Josh handed in her resignation and left the company, Xing Ying was almost irritated to death by her words "it's so boring".

During this time, Josh changed two jobs, but she never gave up the idea of   luring her back. The conditions she offered were better and better, but Josh just didn't want to. As time went by, the two of them had more interactions and occasionally made appointments to have meals together.

Later, Josh went to work as a psychologist again. Xing Ying looked regretful and thought that she was really wasting her talent. Knowing that she couldn't persuade her, she gave up and returned to China to develop her career.

When they met in China this time, she began to feel a glimmer of hope again. Since the other party had quit his job again, wouldn’t it be perfect for him to come back to help her?

Xing Ying looked at her earnestly and said, "It would be a pity for your brain if you don't follow me. You should think about it carefully."

Harper nodded at the side. She agreed very much with the first half of her sentence. Josh was just super awesome!

But when it comes to asking her, she doesn't have to think about anything, because her good sister does whatever she wants.

Josh: "No."

She lowered her eyes and looked at the phone. Her voice was neither loud nor soft, and her decisive tone once again shattered Xing Ying's hope.

After replying to Olivia's message asking them to go out, she stood up and looked at Xing Ying. She stretched out her hand to the place where Olivia had just sat, and tapped the table lightly with her fingers. "I think you can think about taking her with you."

Xing Ying saw her stand up, so she didn't sit down either, waved at her, and said casually, "You, my future wife, don't need me to take care of you."

I am very sure of Olivia's abilities.

Before she left, she turned back and stared at Harper, who was consciously trying to lower his presence, with a half-smile, and added, "I'll leave my girl to Boss Wen to take care of her."

Harper forced a smile, it was really... very stressful.

She was responsible for everything.

Olivia parked the car on the side of the road not far from the store entrance and sat in the car waiting for them. She waited until the heat in the car dissipated before sending a message to Josh. It was obvious that she seemed to be afraid of the heat.

He glanced out the window and saw the person inside just walking out. The bright sunlight hit Josh's face, and the exposure was instantly maximized. Olivia tightened his hands holding the steering wheel slightly and slowly withdrew his gaze.

To be fair.

It's not that she has no feelings for Josh, but her feelings are always superficial because of Josh's face.

Maybe she was right, they could try, but she herself didn't think they could last long.

There was a knock on the car window. Olivia lowered the window, looked at the person outside and asked, "What's wrong?"

Josh: "Wait for me in the car first. Harper and I will go buy some daily necessities."

She came back suddenly and Harper was not prepared. The ones she used yesterday were all disposable. The two of them were originally planning to buy new ones today. They happened to be outside now, so they bought them and put them directly in Olivia's car and took them away together.

Seeing that Josh's eyes were somewhat uncomfortable due to the sting of the sun, Olivia tapped the steering wheel and said, "You guys get in first. It's hot outside. I have new daily necessities over there. If they are not enough, you can buy more later."

She has the habit of keeping double portions of things she uses frequently, just in case.

After getting in the car, Harper took a breath and muttered softly, "It's really hot."

Josh responded with a "hmm". She sat in the passenger seat and did not sit in the back with Harper, so as not to make Olivia look like a professional driver.

But in this way, I feel that she is quite self-conscious.

Olivia didn't say anything. He slowly started the car and drove in the direction Harper pointed.

When people see a sprinkler truck on the road, they will unconsciously follow it.

The weather is really hot. There are obvious heat waves on the asphalt road. It rained heavily yesterday, but the temperature didn't drop. It even rose by a few degrees. Not to mention that it is almost noon now.

Olivia was glad that she didn't let them buy daily necessities by themselves. She felt like she was going to melt just by walking a few more steps outside. Fortunately, there was air conditioning to survive in this horrible weather.

After arriving at the destination, Harper turned on the air conditioner first and then went to the kitchen to wash the fruit.

Josh took Olivia upstairs.

Walking to the door, Josh opened it. The white curtains let in light, making the room bright and spacious. There was no need to turn on the lights. Olivia followed him in without hesitation. She stood by the door and asked, "Do you need help?"

Josh: "No, come in and sit on the bed first."

She had just arrived yesterday afternoon, and had only taken out a few pieces of clothes from the suitcase. She placed the clothes she had taken out on the bed, folding them while saying to Olivia, "They are only summer clothes, not many, and they will be ready soon."

"It's okay, take your time." Olivia reached out and took the folded clothes and put them into the open box. The box was neatly arranged and the remaining space was just enough for the clothes.

Josh collected her belongings on the table and put them into the box. The whole process took only a few minutes.

Olivia helped her carry the box downstairs. This was the bad thing about this kind of house. One had to climb the stairs, although they were not high.

Harper looked at the box in the living room, feeling a little melancholy and sighing softly. She had only lived here for one day. She had imagined it so beautifully when Josh came back. She finally realized her dream of living with her best sister since she was young.

As a result, people stay there faster than they leave the hotel.

She really wanted to ask if she could stay a few more days. She also wanted to go around and have some fun with Josh nearby. She didn't even take her to get familiar with the area after returning home.

After not resting for long, the three of them just drank a sip of water poured by Harper and went out.

As agreed, Harper treated them to a meal before letting them go.

Olivia spoke very little throughout the whole process. He was only responsible for eating and nodding. He didn't eat much and listened to their conversation while eating. Most of the talking was done by Harper.

She wasn't talking to Josh, but mostly chattering to Olivia, as if she was marrying off her daughter, and a lot of things she talked about were related to Josh.

Harper: "What I just said were all her minor problems in the past. Now her only problem is that she has a little directionality problem, but it's not that serious. She can still remember how to get home after walking a few times."

Josh: ...

What are you talking about?

Olivia tilted his head to look at her and smiled, "I understand."

After saying goodbye to Harper, the two returned to the car.

Olivia held the steering wheel and glanced at the person beside him who was fastening his seat belt. He felt a little dazed. The whole day today seemed a little dreamy and unreal.

Who would have thought that she was still shouting that she didn't want to get married yesterday, but today her fiancée was going home with him.

"Don't listen to everything she said during dinner just now."

Olivia looked at her, not understanding what she meant.

Josh laughed: "I was away for so many years, and she only visited me occasionally. What she talked about were some of my habits in high school."

"Don't worry about that. Don't feel pressured."

Olivia nodded, "It's okay, she cares about you very much."

Josh's lips curled up slightly, "Yeah."

The heat in the car completely dissipated, and Olivia slowly started the car. She looked intently at the road ahead, where there was not much traffic.

There was no sound in the car for a long time. Olivia glanced at the person in the passenger seat and was a little surprised that he was actually asleep.

The light was red.

After making sure that she closed her eyes, Olivia turned his head and looked at her carefully.

Josh tilted her head to face the window, leaving only half of her fair face exposed to Olivia's eyes.

Olivia was silent for a few seconds. I don’t know if she really fell asleep, but she looked very tired.

The car music that was used to ease the embarrassment was no longer effective, so she reached out to turn it off, giving Josh a space that was as quiet and comfortable as possible.

Soon the light turned green again. She turned her head and drove carefully. The car drove steadily on the road and arrived at the destination more than ten minutes slower than usual.

The car was parked in the underground garage. Olivia remembered what Harper said during dinner, that Josh had a very bad temper when waking up. He paused in his action of waking her up and retracted his outstretched hand.

I can see that she is very tired. Although I want her to go back with me first and sleep on the bed, it will be more comfortable, but it is difficult to define the grumpiness when waking up. What if she makes me angry...

Olivia sat in the car for more than ten minutes, playing with his mobile phone. Fortunately, nothing happened to him.

Thinking of how Josh was woken up by Harper in the morning and seemed quite calm, Olivia was suddenly confused again.

The harmonious and quiet atmosphere did not last long. Josh's cell phone rang. The moment the ringtone sounded, Olivia was really scared. He turned sideways and caught a glimpse of Josh's slightly frowned brows.

Her heart tightened. Josh's cell phone was on her lap, with his hand lightly resting on it. She raised her eyes and saw Harper again.

Olivia curled the corners of her mouth. It seemed that she was good at choosing the time to make phone calls.

Josh: "Are we there yet?"

She woke up.

Olivia came back to his senses, "Well, I didn't call you because you looked too tired."

Josh chuckled: "Next time you can just wake me up."

Seeing that she was as gentle as ever, Olivia sighed, it was true that some words could only be listened to in part and not believed completely, as it was clear that she was no longer in a bad mood when she woke up.

Her attention was focused on Josh, and she didn't notice that Josh hung up Harper's call directly. Then Josh quickly pulled down the notification bar on his phone and turned on the flight mode.

The world is quiet.

Josh's eyes were clear. She looked up at the dim parking lot. She raised her hand to unbuckle her seat belt, turned her head to look at Olivia, and said softly, "Let's go."

Olivia slowly unbuckled her seat belt. She opened her mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, then turned her head to look at Josh with a serious expression and put forward the idea that she had been thinking about all the way.

She said: "Let's find a time in the next two days to get the certificate."
