Starlight Has No Past Chapter 33.1

Chapter 33 Part 1

After hanging up on Qianxi, Ye Qiao called Shen Ting to confirm her schedule before returning the phone back to its owner . She had borrowed the phone from a simply dressed, nice looking male college student who smiled with two shallow dimples . He took the phone back and even thanked her .

Ye Qiao would normally be the one doing the thanking . Ye Qiao smiled at his kindness and took out a small velvet box from her purse and said: “I made some long distance calls . They’ll probably cost you some money . This small gift is your compensation . ”
The male student bashfully refused: “There’s no need for that . It’s no trouble at all . ”

A girl carrying a bulging handbag in the distance came towards them while calling someone: “Shen Yi . ”
The college student hurriedly went to help carry the bag and asked: “Why did you arrive so late?”
The girl was almost out of breath: “I brought with me too many things and it took a while to check in the luggage . Have you been waiting long?” She apologetically stood up on her toes to straighten the stocking cap on his head . As she raised her head, she saw Ye Qiao right behind him .

Ye Qiao had already recognized her . She greeted her with a smile: “Zhao Mo . ”
Zhao Mo was startled . Seeing Shen Yi’s bag right next to Ye Qiao’s seat, she realized that they had coincidentally sat next to each other . Ye Qiao could easily read the concern in Zhao Mo’s eyes . However, Ye Qiao thought the concern was unnecessary . She tried to smooth things over: “What a coincidence . Is this your boyfriend?”

Zhao Mo still had an awkward smile, but nodded: “En . He’s one year lower than me . He’s still a student at the film school . ” She turned to her boyfriend and introduced Ye Qiao: “This is Ye Qiao Shijie… . . . You came to school late and probably haven’t heard about her . She was the most popular person at school a few years earlier . ”

Shen Yi gladly stretched out his hand, showing his two dimples: “How are you, Shijie . I sort of thought that you looked familiar earlier . I didn’t expect that we’re from the same school . ”
Ye Qiao lightly shook hands with him and said: “I just worked with Zhao Mo on a film and it’s serendipitous for us to meet again here . ” She handed the small box over once again: “Since we know each other, you take this and give it to your girlfriend . ” She gave Zhao Mo a meaningful glance to show her goodwill .
Zhao Mo breathed out a sigh of relief and said: “You don’t have to do that……”

“He just helped me a lot . I should show my appreciation . ” Zhao Mo and her boyfriend exchanged a look after hearing what Ye Qiao had said and accepted the box . They opened the box and saw a pair of exquisite silver earrings inside the box . Zhao Mo sat down and whispered to Shen Yi: “What did you do for Shijie?” Shen Yi innocently whispered back: “I just lent my cell phone to her to make a few phone calls . She seemed to have lost her phone . Shijie is a nice person . ” Zhao Mo felt it was a bit excessive to receive such a gift from Ye Qiao for such a small favor . She looked at Ye Qiao apologetically . Ye Qiao slightly shook her head to ease Zhao Mo’s mind .

Zhao Mo put her arm in her boyfriend’s arm and chatted with him in a low voice for a while . Then she turned around to chat with Ye Qiao: “Qiao Jie, were visiting the city?”
“No, I’m just here for an auction . ” Actually, she had changed her airline ticket to go to another city before the auction’s official opening . Ye Qiao thought it was quite ironic and laughed: “I got that pair of earrings there . ”
Zhao Mo hastily returned the box back to Ye Qiao: “This is too expensive for us to take . ”
“You misunderstood me . ” Ye Qiao gently smiled: “It’s not from the auction . Don’t worry . Usually a reputable auction house will have a company under it produce its own products . Ferra has its own jewelry brand . It’s just an ordinary piece I bought from there . It was originally for my cousin . ” What she didn’t say was that she had decided against giving the earrings to Qianxi as the punishment for arranging her to meet Wen Shaoqian .

Zhao Mo said: “Then, thank you, Qiao Jie . ” She was thinking to herself: Isn’t the spokesperson for Ferra’s jewelry brand Cheng Jiang? Was Ye Qiao really this bighearted or did she not know about it?
Zhao Mo’s mind wandered off in the middle of their conversation . Ye Qiao was a bit offended by it and spoke to interrupt her train of thought: “What did you two come here for?”
Zhao Mo regained her composure and slightly blushed: “Shen Yi and I are both from here . We came back this time to meet each other’s parents……”
Ye Qiao: “That’s nice . ” Then she added: “You have to leave after visiting only for a few days . You’re working hard . ”
