Starlight Has No Past
Chapter 43 Part 3
Huddled with Ye Qiao, Zhou Tingsheng suddenly called her: “Qiaoqiao . ”
Ye Qiao sensed that he was being serious: “En?”
He lightly kissed her on the neck: “It’s going to be New Year soon . Remember that you said about coming to my home . Does it still count?”
“I don’t have any place to go during the New Year, except maybe my grandma’s . If you want me to go with you, I’ll make sure I have a couple of days set aside . ”
Zhou Tingsheng was quiet for a while before asking: “What kind of relationship are we in now?”

Ye Qiao was surprised by the question and couldn’t figure out what he meant: “The kind of relationship where I can go to your home to have dinner . ”
Zhou Tingsheng kept his silence but fixed his eyes on her, waiting for her to clarify .
Ye Qiao felt uneasy under his gaze, confused about his sudden anxiety about their relationship . Vexed, she responded, “What’s with the sudden uncertainty? Weren’t you fully confident earlier saying that you bought the entire showing just for me?”
A smile returned to Zhou Tingsheng’s eyes .
When the two hour movie ended, they returned to the hotel . Zhou Tingsheng wouldn’t let her go to bed just yet . He wanted to give her a belated birthday gift .
As Ye Qiao took the documents from him, her surprise overtook her sleepiness . She was wide awake .
It was a contract from Ferra, as its spokesperson-- -- “Is this your gift to me, or your sister’s?”
Zhou Tingsheng wasn’t afraid to let her know the truth: “It’s Liang Zirao’s idea . ”
Ferra’s contract with Cheng Jiang was about to expire . It was obvious that she wouldn’t be able to renew her contract after the accident . Besides, as Liang Zirao put it, even without the accident, Ferra would have asked Ye Qiao to be their spokesperson anyway . There was no reason to use anyone else .
Ye Qiao had only briefly seen his sister a few times . She giggled after receiving such a big gift from her: “Does this count as your family’s welcome gift?”
“Not quite . The welcome gift will come later . ” Zhou Tingsheng assured her: “Liang Zirao is very generous . Her welcome gift will be much more expensive than this . ” His hand caressed her waist again .
Ye Qiao blocked his hand: “The contract has an 8 digit number . What is she going to give me that’s more expensive than this?”
Zhou Tingsheng suddenly quieted down .
When Liang Zirao handed the contract to him, Zhou Tingsheng was as surprised as Ye Qiao . He asked Liang Zirao: “I thought you didn’t like Ye Qiao?”
Liang Zirao replied: “It’s not that I don’t like her . It’s just I’m afraid that neither of you can get over what happened before . Now since you don’t care and she doesn’t seem to care, then there’s no problem with me . As for dad, I’ll help you persuade him . ”
Zhou Tingsheng smiled: “Really?”
Liang Zirao pretended to be annoyed: “I’m your sister . If I don’t side with you, who will?”
Zhou Tingsheng was moved but didn’t like putting his feelings into words so he just smiled .
But there was one thing Liang Zirao mentioned which he wasn’t sure yet .
Zhou Tingsheng came out of his own thoughts and held Ye Qiao tighter: “Would you take anything that Liang Zirao offered you?”
Ye Qiao was confused by the question and said: “Sure, I’ll take it . There’s nothing that I can’t afford to take . ”
It was a clear day today . Snow had not yet fallen this winter .
