"I'm heading off now, Madam Shen," Song Chuyi informed Shen Lu and left the ward with a cold look on his face.
Changqing wanted to go after Song Chuyi anxiously to explain herself, but Shen Lu held on to her hand and refused to let go of her. Then she asked her, "Does Fu Yu really have a girlfriend?"
"Yes, that's right! She's a friend of mine, and she's a really nice person," Changqing replied.
Shen Lu fell silent.
Right then, Changqing's phone suddenly vibrated, and when Changqing noticed that, she had a bad hunch about it. As expected, the vibration was caused by Song Chuyi as he sent a text message: "See you at the entrance of the hospital in twenty minutes. I'll be there waiting."
"Mom, you're awake." Right at that moment, Fu Yu suddenly returned to the ward with a lunch box in his hand. But when he noticed the pale yellow lunch box on the table, he promptly froze on the spot momentarily. "Changqing, you had your dinner already?"
"Yeah. It's great to have you back here, Brother Fu Yu. I have some urgent things that need my attention at the television station, so I'll be heading off now. Auntie, I'll come and visit you again next time," Changqing said hurriedly and immediately scurried away from the ward, taking the yellow lunchbox with her.
She wasn't that stupid that she would accept Fu Yu's advances of giving her a ride home. Fleeing from him was currently the utmost priority for her now.
Fu Yu put down the lunch box on the table with disappointment. He originally assumed Changqing hadn't eaten her dinner, so he ordered some food from the hotel specifically for her. Where did that lunch box come from? Could it be that someone bought her dinner? Fu Yu conjectured.
"Yu'er, I heard from Changqing that you got yourself a girlfriend and she's a friend of Changqing's. Is that true?" Shen Lu continued her question with her eyebrows frowned. "Aren't you fond of Changqing from way back then?"
"Mom, I've always liked her." Fu Yu showed a face of regret as he continued to speak. "It was all the doing of that woman—she clung onto me by herself. I took advantage of her because it just so happened that I wanted to acquire her company that she was previously employed under. If I knew she and Changqing are classmates, I never would've gotten myself involved with her!"
"You silly child, how could you be so foolish?" Shen Lu reprimanded him. "Changqing is a person who values personal relationships greatly. Even if she likes you, she would never associate with you ever again for her friend's sake."
"I'll think of a solution," Fu Yu said as the color of his pupils turned dark.
——-
Song Chuyi waited at the hospital entrance for more than 10 minutes, but despite that, he didn't catch a single glimpse of Changqing showing up at the entrance. Furthermore, he couldn't get through to her by her cell either.
He flared up into a fury and drove back to the apartment where he discovered that she hadn't returned to the apartment either.
After waiting in the apartment for an hour, he finally decided to travel to the Yan's family villa, filled with anger.
Yan Lei happened to be present at the villa, and when he saw Song Chuyi coming to visit, he hurriedly asked him: "Chuyi, is Changqing unhappy living at your apartment? Why did she come back despite only being there for three days?"
"Dad, it's my fault. I've been working overtime constantly these past couple of days, and this resulted in me neglecting her as I had no spare time to accompany her. Thus, Changqing got a little upset about it. I came here to look for her because I got anxious as I couldn't find her in the apartment when I returned, and I couldn't get ahold of her," Song Chuyi frowned and said worryingly.
Yan Lei comprehended the whole situation after hearing Song Chuyi's explanation. He was well aware of the temperament of his youngest daughter, so he didn't doubt Song Chuyi's words. "She's in her room. She ran up to her room just now upon hearing the rumbling sounds of the car outside when you came. She must be throwing a tantrum."
"In that case, I'll go and get her," Song Chuyi told Yan Lei. However, when he was just about to start climbing the stairs, Yan Lei stopped him and whispered, "She definitely won't open the door if you knock on it. Let me give you her door key instead."
Song Chuyi was dumbfounded, and while he was still in a daze, Yan Lei instantly found the key and passed it to him before encouraging him with a smile. "That girl will be fine once you hug and coax her with some sweet talk."
"… uh, thanks Dad."
——-
Changqing immediately ran up to her room and locked the door from the inside upon hearing the rumbling noises of a car. Even if Song Chuyi knocked on the door, she was determined in never opening the door no matter what. She was sure he wouldn't dare to throw a fit while he was in her house.
Once she figured out how to deal with Song Chuyi, she began to surf the Internet on a computer happily in the study; she listened to songs and read up on news. She was amazed with Ruan Yang for getting on the nominee list for the best actress award once again.
The moment Song Chuyi entered the room, that was the scene that appeared in his field of view.
The little girl was wearing pink pajamas with her bare feet swinging in the air; she was using the computer with one hand while simultaneously biting an apple that she was holding in her other hand. She was swaying her butt to the groovy music as well.
The entire scene continued until she was covered by a shadow towering over her entirely. When Changqing noticed his ghastly face above her, she was so startled that the apple in her hand dropped to the floor, and as if she had seen a ghost, she fled instantly with all her might.
Song Chuyi grabbed onto her pajamas snappishly. Despite Changqing's continuous efforts in moving her feet, she didn't move a single inch from her original position. Feeling vexed and annoyed, she asked Song Chuyi. "How were you able to enter my room?"
"Heheh…" Song Chuyi gave a sly smile while he dangled the keys to her room in front of her eyes and said, "Judging from how your Dad believed me without a doubt and passed me the keys to your room without any sort of hesitation, it appears that you often throw tantrums around the house."
Changqing gnashed her teeth in anger and shouted loudly, "Dad, are you really my biological Dad…"
Immediately after that, Yan Lei, who was worried about them, and was thus leaning against the door listening to their conversation, instantly replied. "Changqing, you need to stop throwing a fit. You young couple should communicate properly if there's any misunderstanding. Chuyi is extremely worried about you. What I did was in both of your best interests."
Yan Lei reminisced about his youthful days when he and his wife often quarreled but never went to bed angry. Presuming that the contents of their conversation would soon become unsuitable for him to eavesdrop on, he proceeded down to the living room to watch the recently broadcast war TV series on the central television channel, feeling relaxed.
Meanwhile, Changqing was going berserk. "What exactly did you say to my Dad?"
"Nothing much. I simply told him you got angry because I was too busy with my job and wasn't spending enough time by your side," Song Chuyi replied with a sneer and suddenly lifted her up into his arms.
"Ah, ah…" Changqing gave a blood-curdling shriek. "What are you planning to do to me? Save me! Dad!"
"It's pointless. You can scream until your throat's hoarse and no one will save you," Song Chuyi remarked as he threw her onto the bed. Changqing got up from the bed and wanted to flee. But Song Chuyi grabbed her ankles and pulled her towards him, resulting in her body pulled close to his chest again.
While looking at her small face that was currently flushed red, Song Chuyi became increasingly furious. "I asked you to wait for me. But you have quite some guts. Rather than doing what I said, you tried to escape from me. Did you assume that once you were back in the Yan family house that I wouldn't be able to do anything to you?"
Reckoning that fleeing from him wasn't an option, Changqing unleashed the best trick she had in her book; talking in a coquettish manner, acting cute, and acting pitiful. "I didn't have such thoughts. I was just afraid you were mad at me."
She pouted, looking delicate and pitiful.
If this was prior to today, her act might work on Song Chuyi. However, it had no effect on him now as he was currently feeling extremely annoyed, his mind fully dwelling on why Fu Yu kept appearing in his life like a haunting ghost, and why both Guan Ying and even Changqing would like Fu Yu over him. "Do you even care that I'm mad?"
He sneered. "Changqing, I really believed you before when you told me you and Fu Yu had known each other since you were young. What I didn't know, however, was that from a young age, you had your heart set on marrying him and that you declared it endlessly to everyone. Are you now regretting that you married me on such short notice? After all, with Fu Yu's similarly powerful background, he would've helped you too if you slept with him for a night or if you approached him before me as your potential wedding partner."
"Song Chuyi! What you said was really hurtful!" Changqing cried. She was genuinely hurt by his words. The tears in her eyes weren't crocodile tears; they were genuine tears. "Yes, you're right! I didn't tell you about that! But was it really my fault in omitting that part? All that happened a long time ago when I was still a child, and as a child, I was still naive. Anyway, I'm still better than you! At the very least, before I met you, I had yet to have my first love and first kiss. What about you? Although I don't know anything about your past, when you kissed me, I could feel that you'd definitely been with a lot of women before in your life with your skillful technique."
