Chapter 69: They’re Back

Chi Ya had always believed that even if no one else supported her, Gu Qiaomei would definitely support her. Hearing Gu Qiaomei tell her to give up all of a sudden, her emotions collapsed, and she fiercely swatted Gu Qiaomei’s hand away, hysterically growling, “I don’t want to! I want to be with him! It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t like me now, one day he will.”
“Ya Ya!” Gu Qiaomei’s hand turned red from the slap, and she looked at her angrily, “It seems you really need a wake-up call. You’d better think it over by yourself here.”
With that, she went upstairs too.
The living room was quickly left with only Chi Ya standing alone. The part of her left face that had been struck felt burning pain, and she felt humiliated and uncomfortable inside.
Why couldn’t her father just support her pursuit of happiness?
When it all comes down to it, isn’t it because Brother Chengyan and Chi Enen once had a verbal marriage contract!
And Brother Chengyan, don’t think she doesn’t know, he has always refused to accept her because Chi Enen is still in his heart.
What’s so good about Chi Enen? Why did they pander to her one after another?
Chi Ya clenched her fists tightly, and malice flashed in her eyes.
If… if Brother Chengyan saw Chi Enen with another man, would he still keep a place for her in his heart?
The vicious thought had just emerged when Chi Ya startled herself, but that thought was like a seed taking root in her mind. No matter how she tried to dispel it… it wouldn’t go away.
As if possessed by a ghost, she took out her mobile phone and dialed a phone number, “Hello? Weren’t you looking to borrow money from me? I can lend it to you, but you need to do something for me first. I need you to…”
Chi Enen was still unaware that she had inadvertently become the focus of someone’s attention.
Three days later, she finally returned to Rainy City from Country W.
As soon as they got off the airplane, Huo Yi came to pick them up, casually opening the car door for them, “Master Jue, Miss Chi, welcome back.”
Li Beijue was the first to get in, followed closely by Chi Enen.
After Huo Yi had closed the car door for them, he walked around to the front driving cabin, started the car, and asked, “Master Jue, shall we head to Zijing Garden first?”
“Go to the city center.”
The car smoothly drove out of the Airport…
Chi Enen glanced at him, feeling a bit puzzled. They had just come back; why wasn’t he going to rest at home? What was he doing going to the city center? Wasn’t he tired?
These three days had given her a complete view of how busy this man was.
Endless meetings, ceaseless banquets.
Sometimes she would fall asleep in the Restroom next to the Conference Room while he was having meetings, and when she woke up, he still wasn’t finished.
Li Beijue seemed to use the 24 hours in a day as if they were 48. He reduced his sleep to only two to three hours each day, basically just napping briefly beside the Conference Room before getting busy again in the blink of an eye.
Thinking of the past few days when he held her while he slept, and the fact that he had his secretary arrange a little seat for her in the Conference Room in front of so many people, and let her play with her computer, Chi Enen felt an indescribable awkwardness.
Li Beijue, unaware of her subtle discomfort, casually hooked his arm around her, drawing her close to his side and said lazily, resting his arm on her shoulder, “Chi Enen, I heard from the Manager that you wanted to cook for me while we were in Ryukyu? I’ve been too busy these past few days, but now that I have some time, I might as well fulfill your wish.”
“…Actually, you don’t have to force yourself to satisfy my wish.”
She had barely finished speaking when she was fiercely glared at, “Stop your chatter!”
