Chapter 88

Chapter 88

Chi Yu had been on a business trip for almost a month and finally returned. The first thing he wanted to do upon his return was to find a certain someone for an answer.

He had even bought her a gift, and this time he would hand it to her himself. He was eager to see her now.

At this time, however, Song Luokui was still at the company. Everyone was arguing about the plot of the film they were shooting, with some people thinking one approach was better, while others preferred another.

"This only shows the male lead's rudeness. If I were the female lead, I'd want to throw him in jail."

"But this adds more impact, and you're not the female lead anyway."

...

Song Luokui watched them argue from the sidelines, looking at this person and then that person, mainly because she didn't really understand the debate.

"Boss, which one do you choose?"

Song Luokui blinked, "Why don't we call it a day? It's already quite late. Everyone should go home, and we can vote on which approach is better tomorrow."

Hearing this and seeing the late hour, everyone started packing up to leave, and Song Luokui left with them.

As the group exited the company, Song Luokui was about to ask Uncle An to bring the car around when she stopped upon seeing the person ahead.

Chi Yu had returned, and he was now leaning against a car not far from her.

One of her colleagues had just said goodbye to Song Luokui when, turning around, they saw Chi Yu and exclaimed, "Holy sh*t!"

Immediately, everyone looked over, while Song Luokui wanted to run away because Chi Yu's gaze was too intense.

Song Luokui took a step back, but Chi Yu quickly approached and stopped in front of her, "Have you considered it?"

Seeing her colleagues' prying eyes, Song Luokui said, "...This isn't a good place to talk, and how did you get back?"

Chi Yu grabbed her hand and took out a bracelet from his pocket, putting it on her wrist. "A gift for you. Let's go." He then pulled her hand, heading straight for the car.

Song Luokui stumbled a bit, and Chi Yu immediately put his arm around her waist to support her into the car. As soon as the door closed, the black car quickly drove off.

The remaining colleagues huddled together, squealing excitedly. One person clapped their hands, "That's the atmosphere we need! It's decided, we'll go with that!"

"Agreed!"

"Agreed!"

Great, there were no more disagreements now.

"Who was that just now? I couldn't see clearly."

Song Luosheng had returned home and found his sister wasn't back yet, so he called. "Still working? This late again?"

"No, I'm on my way back now. I'll be home soon."

"Alright, be careful."

"Okay."

Chi Yu listened from the side, holding her other hand.

After hanging up, Song Luokui leaned towards him again. "Oh, there are more gifts. I'll give them to you tomorrow."

Song Luokui waved her hand. "Isn't this already a gift?"

Chi Yu: "There are more. I got you something from every city I visited."

Song Luokui: "You went to many cities this time?"

Chi Yu: "Yes." This past month, besides encountering betrayal, gunfights, assassination attempts, and various honey traps, he had even been injured, which delayed his return. Otherwise, he would have come back sooner.

They soon arrived at the estate. Of course, the car didn't stop in front of the Song family's building, as Song Luokui was afraid her brother might see her from upstairs.

As she was about to get out of the car, Chi Yu held her back, gazing deeply into her eyes. "Bye, good night. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Song Luokui got out and returned home. Uncle An had already come back and asked Song Luosheng who had picked up Song Luokui.

Uncle An: "The young lady got into a friend's car and told me to come back first."

Song Luosheng was about to call Song Luokui again when he saw her coming in from outside. "Which friend dropped you off?"

Song Luokui: "Just a friend. Why are you asking so many questions, brother? I'm tired. I'm going to rest now."

Seeing her weary face, Song Luosheng didn't press further. Her friend was probably not Zhang Xiyue, but maybe Zhou Yuan's sister or someone from the Tu family. He knew it would be a woman. "Alright, but next time, bring Uncle An or your assistant with you."

"Got it. I'm going up now."

"Mm."

Once in her room, Song Luokui flopped onto the bed. Chi Yu had returned, and he wanted her to give him an answer tomorrow. But Li Bei usually accompanied her everywhere... so how could she meet him without Li Bei? This was a problem.

Song Luokui rubbed her face. How had things reached this point?

She raised her wrist and looked at the bracelet, which sparkled beautifully under the light. Chi Yu's gifts were always something she liked. If she agreed... it didn't seem like a bad thing.

Perhaps she could start a secret relationship first? She needed to get Chi Yu to agree to that first and then figure out a way to make it work.
