Chu Liang's eyes darkened. He quickly got up from the bed and bowed to Fu Jinchen, "I'm sorry, Director Fu."
Fu Jinchen raised his eyes and cast a sidelong glance at Chu Liang. Within the quiet atmosphere, he suddenly let out a chuckle.
"You're just following orders, what's wrong with that?"
Chu Liang was silent. Fu Jinchen glanced at his bodyguard and said, "From today onwards, all of you shall follow Miss Chu's subordinates."
"Yes." All the men in black nodded in agreement. After putting on a mask, Fu Jinchen left the room.
Chu Liang regained his senses and caught up with Fu Jinchen.
Fu Jinchen walked a few steps before stopping. Turning around, he glanced at Chu Liang and said, "You don't need to follow the others. You can do it yourself."
"Yes." Chu Liang nodded in agreement before speeding up his pace to Fu Jinchen's side.
She didn't know what Fu Jinchen was planning, nor did she know where he wanted to go. However, she still had to protect his safety at this moment in time.
But what Chu Liang didn't understand was why he dared to swagger around the city.
While Chu Liang was still in a daze, Fu Jinchen suddenly pushed open a door and walked in.
Chu Liang regained his senses and immediately followed him in. When he smelled a sweet fragrance, he glanced at Fu Jinchen in surprise.
"A glass of ice American." Fu Jinchen stood in front of the counter and ordered a cup of cold water, completely ignoring Chu Liang who was behind him.
Chu Liang pursed his lips but didn't say anything. He followed Fu Jinchen to a corner and sat down.
"Cool!" A woman's voice suddenly rang out. Chu Liang's body stiffened for a moment, before he looked towards the source of the voice.
The woman wore a beige tweed jacket, had a cute face, and waved towards Chu Liang with a smile.
When Fu Jinchen heard the voice, he raised his eyes to look at it, and a trace of probing flashed across his eyes.
Chu Liang didn't answer. Instead, he took out his phone to edit a short message. Soon, the woman's phone rang.
The woman was puzzled for a moment, but still opened the text message. When she saw the content, she instantly understood and lowered her head to reply to Chu Liang.
"Cool. Let's meet again when we have time."
Meet? Chu Liang raised his head and glanced at Fu Jinchen. He crossed his legs and tilted his head to look out the window, as if the ruckus in the world had nothing to do with him.
"Alright." After Chu Liang replied, he waved his hand at the woman.
Although she was disappointed, the woman still sighed, picked up her stuff and left the coffee shop.
"Who is that?" Fu Jinchen's voice suddenly rang in his ears. Chu Liang paused for a moment before he explained calmly, "A friend from when we were young."
Fu Jinchen pulled out the chair opposite Chu Liang and sat down. He replied lazily, "Oh."
"Director Fu, how much longer do you want to play?" Chu Liang couldn't help but ask Fu Jinchen. Fu Jinchen put down the cup of coffee and glanced at her. With a cold voice, he asked, "Do you think I'm playing?"
Chu Liang remained silent. Fu Jinchen sneered as he stood up. He threw the cup of coffee into the trash can and left the coffee shop.
Just like this, Fu Jinchen wandered around the city and returned home. After Chu Liang returned home, Fu Jinchen glanced at her and said,
"From now on, every weekend is your free time. You don't have to follow me like you do today."
Chu Liang paused for a moment before nodding his head, "Yes."
After they went back to their respective rooms, Chu Liang's phone rang. After seeing the caller ID, she frowned, but still picked up the call: "Duoduo."
"Cool. What are you doing today?" Yang Duoduo's voice was filled with curiosity, "I can see that you don't even dare to speak with a serious face anymore."
Chu Liang pursed his lips, not replying.
Since she was a child, she had been adopted by the Jane family. As the daughter of a servant of the Jane family, Yang Duoduo was also a good friend of hers.
However, she wasn't sure if she should tell Yang Duoduo about Fu Jinchen.
While Chu Liang was silent, Yang Duoduo consciously changed the topic. With a lighter tone, she said, "Liangliang, let me tell you that I've passed the Fu Yi Group's first round of examination."
"Really?" Chu Liang was a bit surprised. Yang Duoduo acknowledged, "You also know that I just graduated this year. When I was looking for an internship, Brother Yan recommended Fu Yi Group to me."
After hearing the name, Chu Liang paused for a moment before replying, "So that's how it is."
Yang Duoduo laughed out loud and answered cheerfully, "Yes, I also heard that you're at Fu Yi Group. If that's the case, do you think we can meet every day?"
"Un …" Chu Liang fiddled with the pen on his desk, his tone unmistakable, "Maybe."
"Cool. I don't think you're very happy?" There was a trace of dissatisfaction in Yang Duoduo's tone, "Don't you want us to work together?"
"Nope." Chu Liang denied it, "I just..." I don't want you to get involved.
Hearing Chu Liang's silence, Yang Duoduo had gotten used to it, "What kind of secret agreement did you sign again? I'm not going to ask."
Chu Liang let out a sigh of relief and said in a relieved tone, "Thank you for understanding."
"No worries, we are good friends after all." Yang Duoduo smiled, "It's getting late, hurry up and pack up, good night."
"Alright." The corners of Chu Liang's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a rare smile.
After hanging up, Chu Liang started to hesitate.
The night quietly passed and the biological clock on the second day woke Chu Liang up on time. After looking at the time, she neatly got up and put on her clothes. Her hair was tied into a ponytail and she took her sports coat out the door.
When Chu Liang returned from her training, she caught a whiff of the fragrance the moment she opened the door. She looked over and found Fu Jinchen walking in circles in the kitchen.
He was wearing a white turtleneck sweater and an apron, and he was swinging a spatula in a practiced manner.
Fu Jinchen knew how to cook?
Chu Liang stared at Fu Jinchen for a long time, watching as he put the bread into the toaster, then poured oil into the wok and skillfully fried the eggs. In the end, he made the appearance of a sandwich.
Seeing the spoon on the side about to fall to the floor, Chu Liang walked over and asked, "Chief Fu, is there anything I can help with?"
Fu Jinchen raised his head and glanced at Chu Liang, then shook his head and denied, "No, you can go and do your own things."
"Yes." Although Chu Liang replied in this manner, he still looked suspiciously at Fu Jinchen.
Seemingly feeling Chu Liang's gaze, Fu Jinchen absentmindedly said, "After you're done, remember to find yourself something to eat."
Chu Liang's footsteps paused as the corners of his mouth twitched. He couldn't help but curse in his heart.
How petty.
