Chapter 41
Inside the private room, there was a lively atmosphere. Outside, Chi Yu sat in his car, with a laptop on his lap and slender fingers tapping on the keyboard. He was wearing headphones and working.
Meanwhile, Lin Cheng quickly arrived at the Unnamed Mountain Lake Store No. 1. Initially, he had intended to go inside, but upon further thought, he decided against it. His girlfriend was right—girls also needed socializing.
Lin Cheng waited outside, sitting in the driver's seat. He looked around and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity with the car in front of him. Upon closer inspection of the rearview mirror, he saw someone sitting in the driver's seat.
Oh my god! It's Chi Yu! He's actually here!
Lin Cheng saw this as an opportunity to get to know Chi Yu better. Although they had met before, Chi Yu probably didn't remember him since important people tend to forget things easily. Lin Cheng could seize this chance to say hello again.
He got out of the car and approached Chi Yu. As soon as Chi Yu heard a voice, he looked up and saw Lin Cheng. His memory was good; he had seen this person before. He was probably the boyfriend of her roommate.
"Hello, Chi Yu," Lin Cheng greeted immediately. "I didn't expect to see you here. Are you here to have fun? Or perhaps for business?"
Chi Yu replied, "No, I'm waiting for someone."
"Oh, I see," Lin Cheng responded. "What a coincidence! I'm also waiting for someone—my girlfriend. She and her roommate are inside playing. Although I wanted to go in, they're all girls, and I don't want to go against my girlfriend's wishes. By the way, Miss Song seems to be inside too..."
As Lin Cheng said this, he paused, recalling the scene he had witnessed earlier. Could it be...no way...
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Cheng asked, "Chi Yu, are you waiting for Sister Song?"
Chi Yu nodded.
Lin Cheng's heart raced. Oh my god! He heard something! Ahhh!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Cheng said, "Haha, what a coincidence. I'll go back then. I'll be over there, so if you need anything, just let me know."
Chi Yu suddenly called out to him, "Wait, let's exchange contact information."
Lin Cheng replied, "Huh?"
Back in the car, Lin Cheng still couldn't believe it. He had actually added Chi Yu's personal messaging account! But why did Chi Yu add him? Lin Cheng suddenly looked towards the club. So...was it for Sister Song?
Inside the private room, Zhang Xiyue had drunk a lot and was already drunk. The others had also had some drinks, but Song Luokui, who knew her alcohol tolerance, only had non-alcoholic beverages. It was getting late, around ten o'clock, and she was thinking about how to take all of them back.
She briefly considered asking Zhou Yuan to come over, but immediately dismissed the idea. What would Zhou Yuan say to her brother?
"If Miss Song doesn't know how to take her friends back, there are rooms upstairs where they can rest for the night. It's absolutely safe and quiet," Yu Tang suggested.
Song Luokui looked at her friends, who were swaying and stumbling, and accepted the suggestion. "Okay, help me bring them up."
After settling everyone in, Song Luokui hesitated whether to stay or drive back home. Yu Tang, who was standing at the door, told her, "Miss Song, someone is waiting for you outside."
Song Luokui: ?
Ah!
She wondered who it could be. Suddenly, she thought of Chi Yu. Could he still be waiting?!
Song Luokui immediately rushed out in a panic. As she went outside, she saw that Chi Yu's car was indeed still there. The driver's window was open, and she could see Chi Yu working on his computer.
When Chi Yu saw Song Luokui approaching, he raised his head and saw her. "Is it over? Can we go eat now?"
Song Luokui lowered her head and suddenly felt a twinge of guilt. "...You've been waiting outside?" She felt guilty for a second, but then shook it off. Guilty about what? Forgetting the song she sang tonight, "Despicable Man"? Besides, it wasn't her who asked him to wait.
Most importantly, Chi Yu was the enemy! Enemy! Enemy! Her mind emphasized it three times. She looked up at Chi Yu, then quickly lowered her head again. Damn it! She couldn't look at his face. Looking at him would only make her feel guilty.
Chi Yu: "No, I was working."
Song Luokui muttered softly, "Liar... Never mind, since we want to eat, there probably isn't any restaurant open at this late hour. Let me take you for a late-night snack."
Song Luokui prepared to get into his car. After all, she owed him a favor, so she should be polite. Once she repaid the favor, she wouldn't need to pay attention to him anymore.
Just as she was about to open the car door, someone suddenly ran over from the other side. "Junior Sister Song, sorry to bother you. I wanted to ask about my sister..."
Lin Cheng was already feeling a bit tired from waiting. He was about to fall asleep when he startled awake and saw Junior Sister Song standing in front of Senior Brother Chi Yu's car. The two of them were talking about something. As expected!!! Senior Brother Chi Yu was waiting for Junior Sister Song!
He leaned over in the driver's seat, trying to eavesdrop. Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, he had a feeling that their relationship was not as unfamiliar as Junior Sister Song had previously claimed!
Soon he saw Junior Sister Song getting ready to get into Senior Brother Chi Yu's car. He immediately ran over because his girlfriend still hadn't come out.
Song Luokui didn't expect Lin Cheng to be here too, and he even saw her about to get into Chi Yu's car...
Song Luokui: "...Sisi is resting in a room at the club. Don't worry, it's safe here. Do you really have to take her back?"
Lin Cheng scratched his head. "I'll take her back."
Song Luokui said, "Okay, I'll have someone take you there."
At that moment, Chi Yu spoke up, "I'll have someone come out to take him in." Chi Yu made a phone call, and soon Yu Tang came out. Song Luokui looked at Yu Tang and then at Chi Yu.
"You..."
Chi Yu said, "He's my partner here. Let's go, where do you want to eat?" Chi Yu started the car. "By the way, don't worry, I won't let him spill anything."
Song Luokui: "Um, thank you." How did he know she didn't want anyone to find out?
"Let's go to Fat Uncle Barbecue Stall," Song Luokui shared her location and then looked at the suit Chi Yu was wearing. "Hmm... Can you eat at a barbecue stall?"
Mainly because she couldn't imagine Chi Yu, a wealthy young man, eating at a barbecue stall.
Chi Yu: "Sure." Chi Yu turned his head to glance at Song Luokui and then looked back at the road. "I've eaten at a barbecue stall before."
Song Luokui: "That's good."
The two of them arrived quickly. Although it was late, there were still many people, all here for supper, and the air was filled with the aroma of grilled food.
They sat down at an empty table. Song Luokui handed him the menu. "You can order."
Chi Yu glanced at it. "Do you eat chives?"
Song Luokui: "Yes, I do."
"What about lamb skewers?"
"I eat them. No, wait, you can order whatever you like. I'm fine with anything." It was clearly her treat, so why was he asking her?
