Chapter 177: Chapter 176 Don’t Let Him Make Trouble
The technologically savvy Han Group.
After dealing with work affairs, Han Zixuan, feeling somewhat fatigued, took off his glasses and rubbed the spot between his eyebrows. Picking up his phone, he saw the last two messages sent by Han Yutang.
[I can’t pretend, and I definitely won’t show that girl a friendly face…]
[Bro, just wait, I’ll try to snatch the sister-in-law away for you.]
Individually, these messages didn’t pose any issue.
But put together, they took on a somewhat disconcerting eeriness.
Holding his phone, Han Zixuan slowly typed a question mark and sent it over: [?]
He didn’t receive any reply.
At this moment, in the private room. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Qin Cheng respectfully pushed open the door of the private room.
Fu Si walked in with a lazy grace.
He was dressed in a casual outfit, one hand lazily tucked in the pocket of his black pants. On his wrist, the dark red tassels of a bead bracelet gently swayed with his movements. His delicate and handsome face carried a smile, his eyes slightly lifted behind his glasses – just a simple act of entering the room, and yet he infused it with a uniquely attractive charm.
The moment Fu Si walked in, aside from Chi Gui, everyone in the private room stood up and respectfully greeted, “Mr. Fu”.
“Sorry for being late,” Fu Si said with a light chuckle, his deep eyes immediately falling upon Chi Gui.
She was still sitting quietly on the sofa, holding a glass of juice. At this moment, she was looking up at him, her face showing little surprise.
Qin Cheng also took notice of Chi Gui’s expression and couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
When they were in Nancheng, before Chi Gui, Mr. Fu always concealed his identity, pretending to be a small businessman.
So why now in this scene… Miss Chi seems not to be surprised at all?
However, it wasn’t long before Qin Cheng understood.
When in Nancheng, Miss Chi had also attended banquets as a member of the Chi Family and did not know the young masters in the private room, probably assuming they were just small businessmen from the Capital City.
This scene, she might have interpreted as the usual flattery among businessmen at a banquet.
Fu Sifeng’s eyes flickered lightly, his thoughts aligning with Qin Cheng’s.
He walked over and naturally sat next to Chi Gui, squeezing Han Yutang aside.
Fu Si, as if unaware of what he had just done, introduced with a smile to the others: “This is Chi Gui, it’s her first visit to Capital City, I’ll be troubling you all to look after her in the future.”
Those present were all shrewd, catching several messages from the short statement of Fu Si, with two most important ones:
First, the girlfriend is someone you can only refer to in private.
Second, “looking after her” equates to “serve her cautiously”.
Han Yutang got it too.
They were all practiced socializers, very skilled at setting the mood, and the atmosphere in the private room was excellent.
During the course of the event, Chi Gui picked up her bag: “Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.”
The private room came with a bathroom. Chi Gui walked in and locked the door, casually placed her bag on the washbasin, and then pulled out her phone.
On WeChat, a message from Han Zixuan had arrived: [Professor Chi, is my brother with you?]
After thinking it through, Han Zixuan couldn’t think of anyone else who could make such a radical change in his brother’s attitude, other than Chi Gui.
Han Zixuan was very clear that although Han Yutang had a seemingly obedient and cute face, and usually spoke steadily, appearing shy and amiable, in reality, he was more stubborn than any member of the Han Family and not at all as compliant as he seemed.
Chi Gui was a bit puzzled by Han Zixuan’s question but still replied: [Um.]
After a moment of silence on the other end, Han Zixuan sent another message: [Take good care of him for me, don’t let him cause trouble. Thanks.]
She was somewhat perplexed, but still agreed.
Chi Gui put away her phone, took her bag, and exited. Just as she pushed open the door, she heard Han Yutang’s voice, exceptionally innocent and harmless: “Mr. Fu, your friend is also named Chi Gui, and the national treasure talent in our Capital City is also called Chi Gui. Which one do you think is better?”
