Bai Dong spoke with Long Ting on the side.
“Your cousin has been dating the daughter of a murderer, did you know that?”
“Oh, I didn’t.” Long Ting immediately distant himself from the situation. He knew what his aunt was like. She did whatever she wanted and was doted on by his uncle. If she knew that he was involved, she would definitely kick up such a fuss that his head would hurt.
“Let me make things clear today. I’ve chosen Gu Na to be my daughter-in-law. Li An’an is not a possibility. Keep an eye on them. If you find your cousin with that woman, call me.”
Long Ting rubbed his nose. This was asking him to be a spy. How could he do such a thing? He wouldn’t dare.
“I know you like that car. If you help me with this, I’ll give you one.” Seeing that Long Ting didn’t agree, Bai Dong threw out the bait.
Long Ting’s eyes immediately lit up. That sports car was something he had been dreaming of.
His mind raced and he immediately thought of a strategy. “You’re treating me like an outsider. We’re relatives so let’s not talk about that sports car. Leave this with me.”
Bai Dong rolled her eyes at him. This fellow was so improper..
Seeing that her mood had improved. Long Ting tried persuading her again. “Auntie, you really like that arrogant woman, Gu Na? She’s not suitable for Cousin at all.”
Actually, his aunt was not a bad person. It was just that she did things her own way and was easily led by the nose.
“Am I going to choose my daughter-in-law or are you going to choose my daughter-in-law? Does it need your approval?”
Long Ting fell silent. Whatever. Anyway, his cousin would never marry a woman like Gu Na. She’d find out when the time was right, that her efforts came to nothing.
After Long Ting left, Chu Yichen went back to his room. He had rarely stayed in this room since he was 18 years old. He would come back once or twice, but he could not sleep tonight. It was as though the space next to him was too empty. He went walking along the corridor and heard Gu Na’s voice from downstairs.
“Auntie, can I really stay tonight?”
Gu Na looked shy. She didn’t expect to be given such a good opportunity. She had never thought that she’d be able to stay in the Chu family residence for a night. It wasn’t staying in Chu Yichen’s room but even so, it was something that many women didn’t dare dream about.
Bai Dong was very enthusiastic. “Of course. I’ve already said that you’re my ideal daughter-in-law. From now on, I’ll get Yichen to come home every day so that you two may nurture your relationship.”
“Thank you, Auntie!”
Their voices were getting further and further away, it sounded like they had gone to the garden.
Chu Yichen went back to the bedroom and called Long Ting. He took his coat and left.
Before Long Ting even arrived home, he had to turn back to pick him up. “That was fast, I’ve barely driven off in this sports car.” It was indeed a top-notch sports car, boasting excellent speed and driving sense.
Chu Yichen opened the car door and got into the passenger seat. “Let’s go for a drink.”
Long Ting really liked this suggestion.
Bai Dong and Gu Na carried the milk upstairs and knocked on the door. After knocking for a long time, the door remained shut. When they opened the door and saw that there was no one in the room, they asked the servant and found out that Chu Yichen had already left.
Gu Na looked disappointed, and Bai Dong was furious. This son of hers really made her worry.
“Don’t worry, Auntie will prepare a room for you.”
Long Ting and Chu Yichen walked out of the club at 2am. Both of them had drunk a lot.
Long Ting suggested staying overnight in a hotel, however Chu Yichen refused as he had an apartment nearby, so he could stay there tonight. Long Ting didn’t try to persuade him and headed off to the hotel by himself.
Chu Yichen took a taxi to the Jinhua Building not far away. He got into the elevator and pressed the fingerprint lock. He entered the apartment.
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination that there were some changes in the apartment. But the drinks were taking effect and he casually lay down on the sofa..
