Of course Chi Yu knew Wu Ping. By convention, he should have called him uncle, but only when Wu Ping was being polite to others.
Chi Yu directly and coldly refused: "No way." He then turned to find his girlfriend, but saw Song Luokui watching him from the side.
Chi Yu immediately went over, "Someone I don't know."
However, Wu Moli followed him, pouting, "Big brother Chi, how can you say you don't know me? Didn't we meet when we were little? And didn't I call you when I was going abroad, saying I'd be waiting for you when I came back?"
Upon hearing this, Song Luokui immediately looked at Chi Yu, "Don't know her?"
Chi Yu was on the verge of swearing, "I really don't know her. I didn't receive any calls either."
Wu Moli started stomping her feet in a tantrum, "That's impossible, I called your house back then."
Chi Yu: "I moved out of my parents' house in college. Anyway, I didn't receive any calls."
Wu Moli pouted, "Okay, well, now you know." Then she scrutinized Song Luokui, "So you're Song Luokui? Everyone says you're very beautiful, but I think you're just average. Not as pretty as me."
Song Luokui: "...You're quite pretty, but our tastes are clearly different. I think I'm better looking than you." Song Luokui was confident as she hugged Chi Yu's arm. "And he's my boyfriend, so don't call him like that. I won't allow it!"
The Song Luokui of today looked like an arrogant and confident lady, dressed in a long black dress that made her skin appear even more snow-white and smooth.
Chi Yu, standing beside her, was pleased to hear her say that. He liked her possessiveness.
Chi Yu nodded in agreement: "Yeah, don't call me that. I find it quite disgusting!"
Wu Moli was immediately angered, "Big brother Chi, how can you say that! You said I was cute when we were little."
Chi Yu frowned, feeling that he probably didn't say that when he was little. Just as he was about to say something, Song Luokui patted his hand, signaling him not to speak, and addressed Wu Moli herself: "Miss Wu, you're beautiful and come from a good family. You should know the difference between dreams and reality. Why don't you tell us what you're really up to? Trying to steal someone else's man?"
Song Luokui looked Wu Moli up and down while clicking her tongue, saying, "I've always thought a well-educated lady from a prestigious family wouldn't stoop to such undignified behavior. In our circles, people like that are looked down upon."
"I'm quite curious how your parents raised you. Besides embarrassing yourself in public, what other benefits could there be from acting like this?"
Wu Moli was instantly enraged, "What do you mean? How dare you say I'm ill-mannered? Embarrassing myself? Who dares criticize me?" She looked around.
Lou Sasa burst out laughing, "I dare criticize you, Wu Moli. Do you remember me?"
The maid: "Sir hasn't come back yet tonight."
Chi Yu checked the time - it was almost 10 PM, and his father still wasn't back? He picked up the house phone and called Chi Yong, but no one answered.
At that moment, Chi Yong was in a tense standoff, with both sides facing each other. If one person moved, it could escalate into a major conflict.
Fortunately, both sides restrained themselves, each letting out a "hmph" before dispersing.
After getting into the car to leave, the secretary finally told Chi Yong, "The young master called earlier."
Chi Yong: "Was there any urgent matter?"
The secretary: "The young master didn't say."
Chi Yong: "Wasn't he going to attend some banquet with the Song family's little lady tonight? Give him a call."
"Yes."
Soon, Chi Yu was on the phone with Chi Yong, and he immediately asked about Wu Ping.
Chi Yong frowned, "Him?" Chi Yong suddenly realized that Wu Ping was indeed not present at the meeting tonight.
"I understand." After hanging up, Chi Yong immediately called Song Moqian.
At the Wu residence.
Wu Moli angrily returned home, where Wu Ping and his second wife Ma Shu came downstairs. Seeing the fuming Wu Moli, they immediately inquired about the situation. "What happened? Why are you so angry? Didn't you go to attend some banquet?"
Wu Moli angrily tilted her head, "Hmph! Father, you asked me to get acquainted with Brother Chi, but Brother Chi said he doesn't know me."
Wu Ping: "Is that so? But didn't you two play quite well together when you were little?"
Wu Moli thought back to her childhood and avoided his gaze, "No way. When we were little, he never played with me." In reality, Chi Yu never played with her at all. Chi Yu was always surrounded by boys, and those little girls could never enter their play circle.
Wu Ping: "That's what you say. But that was a long time ago. You've grown up now, and it would be good for you to get to know him."
Wu Moli: "But... but... but Brother Chi already has a girlfriend. If I pursue him now, I'll be called a homewrecker, just like Mom."
Ma Shu's face instantly darkened at those words.
