Chapter 62
Recalling some past events, Song Luokui pondered for a long time.
The car quickly entered the courtyard and stopped not far from the Song family residence, "We're here."
Song Luokui unbuckled her seatbelt, preparing to get out of the car. But she paused for a moment, suddenly leaning closer to Chi Yu, "What's the matter...?"
Chi Yu's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. Turning his head, he looked at Song Luokui who had moved in close. Their faces were just a palm's width apart, and he could clearly see her sparkling eye makeup and smell the faint fragrance on her.
Chi Yu's eyelids flickered as his gaze met Song Luokui's.
Song Luokui could see her reflection in his eyes, but she quickly looked down and reached out to poke his face twice. She could see Chi Yu's eyes widen suddenly, and he swallowed hard. In the dim light of the car, his Adam's apple moved slightly. More than that, Chi Yu seemed to momentarily forget to breathe, not daring to move an inch.
Song Luokui coughed lightly, her fist covering her mouth. Then she returned the coat he had draped over her earlier. "Thank you for tonight." Song Luokui retreated to a safe distance before opening the car door and getting out. She waved at him before running back into her house.
Inside the car, Chi Yu touched the spot where she had poked him. It seemed like someone's scent still lingered. He let out a breath, the corners of his mouth curling up involuntarily, before starting the car and driving home.
...
At the bustling business banquet, glasses clinking and conversations flowing, Song Luosheng was chatting with a business partner.
Suddenly, someone entered the venue and walked straight toward Song Luosheng, catching his attention. Song Luosheng turned to look.
The person smirked, raising his glass to Song Luosheng, "Long time no see."Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m
Song Luosheng blinked, his expression darkening. This troublemaker had actually returned to the country!
Wei Qing, a member of the Wei Family, was a madman who had transferred to Xihua High School during their high school years.
If one were to say that Song Luosheng and Chi Yu had a competitive relationship, leading to a poor relationship and causing the school to be divided into two camps with them as the leaders, then Wei Qing was simply someone who played by his own rules, wandering between the two sides.
He would instigate conflicts, set traps, and use others to achieve his own goals. During high school, there were three major clashes between Song Luosheng and Chi Yu, with "physical sparring" sessions arranged between their respective camps.
Chi Yu looked at him, not recognizing him at first, but then it dawned on him. "Wei Qing?"
"Mmhmm, I didn't expect that after all these years, my old schoolmate would still be so prosperous. It seems that Song fellow still can't beat you," Wei Qing remarked with a raised eyebrow. "Though, I just spoke with Song Luosheng, and his desire to take you down hasn't changed."
Chi Yu frowned slightly, not taking Wei Qing's words to heart. He was just surprised that this person had returned to the country. "It's none of your concern."
Wei Qing arched an eyebrow, "I find that you two speak in the same way. Don't tell me your relationship has improved?"
Chi Yu didn't respond. While his relationship with Song Luosheng wasn't good, it was still better than with Wei Qing.
Seeing that Chi Yu ignored him, Wei Qing shrugged and left.
Wei Qing ascended to the second floor, looking back and forth between Song Luosheng and Chi Yu, his eyes darting constantly. Those who knew Wei Qing were aware that he was up to no good again.
Meanwhile, Zhang Xiyue had finally identified the person responsible for cutting Zhu Ruan's dress. Or rather, that person's target wasn't actually to ruin Zhu Ruan's dress but to sabotage Zhang Xiyue's show.
The person couldn't afford to offend Zhang Xiyue, so she targeted the more vulnerable Zhu Ruan instead. Zhu Ruan's family situation wasn't great. Her ability to study piano stemmed primarily from her natural talent. The school provided financial aid, and she worked hard to earn scholarships and took on part-time jobs. Zhu Ruan was genuinely talented, or else Zhang Xiyue wouldn't have recruited her to help train for the show.
The gown was a rental for Zhu Ruan, quite expensive for her. That person wanted to mess with her psyche.
However, they didn't expect the performer to be replaced, and the show ended up receiving widespread praise and acclaim.
"It was Zhao Liya. I had someone warn her before, but I didn't expect her to still want to do something to me," Zhang Xiyue fumed.
Song Luokui asked, "Didn't you get Zhou Yuan to teach that scumbag ex a lesson? Why didn't he deal with her too?"
Zhang Xiyue replied, "She's a woman, so Zhou Yuan just had someone warn her. The scumbag ex got taught a lesson long ago. Who would even bother with someone like her now? Her reputation is ruined, isn't it? She can't possibly think it's my fault that she ended up like this, so she wants revenge on me, right?"
Song Luokui asked, "Probably. So what are you going to do?"
Zhang Xiyue: "Anyway, I've already informed the school, and they'll definitely punish her. Not only that, but I'll also make her post an apology notice at the school. I want everyone to know her true colors, really, what kind of person is she?"
