Chapter 41 Kissing Other Women

When Zhou Zhou woke up, Cheng Yu was gone.

When I turned over to get my phone, I found a black umbrella on the bedside table with a yellow sticky note on the hook.

Zhou Zhou rubbed his eyes and reached for the sticky note.

The blackout curtains were drawn, and the room was dark. She fumbled for the bedside lamp, put her hand to her forehead, and squinted to read the words on it.

——Remember to take an umbrella when it rains.

Like others, his handwriting was also very flamboyant, and one sentence took up the entire sticky note.

The alarm clock also rang at this time.

I set the alarm for 6:30 before going to bed. There was still some warmth on one side of the bed, so he must have just left not long ago.

Zhou Zhou got up from the bed and drew the curtains. It was already daylight outside. His room was on a high floor, and normally the view was unobstructed. But now, it was shrouded in a thin mist, and the distance looked gray and hazy.

The drizzle seemed endless, and the sound of water dripping against the windows was heard.

Zhou Zhou yawned by the window, waking up from his sleepiness.

It takes an hour to get to the airport from here, so getting up at 6:30 is more than enough time. In rainy or foggy weather, the road is very difficult to travel on, and traffic jams are unavoidable.

After washing his face briefly, he left the room with an umbrella.

It was exactly 8:30 when we arrived at the airport parking lot.

Yan Yiqi's plane arrives at 8:30, and it will take time to get the luggage out.

If you walk faster, you can still catch up.

She pressed the elevator button and stood in front of the elevator door to call Yan Yiqi. A cold female voice came from the other end, telling her that the other party's phone was turned off.

I had just landed and didn't have time to turn on the phone.

The elevator stopped at her floor. There were many people like her, rushing to meet someone at the airport. As soon as the door opened, they crowded into the elevator.

Zhou Zhou was the last to enter.

She leaned against the inner wall of the elevator, watching the elevator door slowly close. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a black sports car driving in from the corner of the parking lot.

The black and orange lines of the majestic and flamboyant one are Cheng Yu’s Evija. There is no other one like it in the whole capital.

Why is Cheng Yu here?

Picking someone up or going on a business trip?

These thoughts only flashed through her mind for a moment before being dismissed. They were not yet at the point of caring about each other's private affairs.

It wasn't until she reached the international exit that she received a call from Yan Yiqi.

"I'm sorry, the visibility is too low due to the rain and fog in Beijing, which delayed us. We just landed." He apologized on the other end of the phone.

Then he said, "I'll be here for a while. Please find a place to sit down first."

Zhou Zhou thought it would take a while, so he said, "Then I'll wait for you in the row of seats where you turn left at the exit."

Yan Yiqi agreed.

Yan Yiqi came out fifteen minutes later.

He came out pushing his suitcase and immediately recognized the ball sitting on the chair.

Zhou Zhou wore a white furry coat with a hood on her head. A matching scarf was wrapped around her several times and tied casually in a knot, covering most of her face.

When Yan Yiqi stood in front of her, the ball raised its head, revealing only its distinct black and white eyes.

"Here I am." Zhou Zhou pushed his scarf down, revealing his entire fair face.

She smiled, her eyes curved, and reached out to take the computer bag he was holding.

"I'll take it." Yan Yiqi put the computer bag on the suitcase, reached out to pull her hat, and skillfully smoothed her hair that was messed up by her clothes.

He asked her calmly, "How are you these days?"

During the time Yan Yiqi returned to Singapore, the two chatted almost every day.

Zhou Zhou took several orders online and sent a copy of the design plan to Yan Yiqi. The two spent a lot of time talking about design.

Apart from that, we also talked about what we were doing and some nonsense, but we didn't talk about emotions.

He knew everything about her recent situation in Singapore, except her feelings.

Zhou Zhou was silent for a moment, then he hugged his arm and smiled, "You couldn't control yourself the night you left, and he got what you wanted."

Yan Yiqi smiled faintly: "Very good."

When he saw Cheng Yu in the elevator, he knew he was no ordinary person.

This result was within his expectations, but he still felt confused when he heard the answer.

He put away the gloom in his eyes and asked her calmly, "As your partner, do you want me to avoid suspicion?"

After all, in that man's eyes, he was Zhou Zhou's ex. Even if a man doesn't have love, he will still have an inexplicable possessive desire.

"No, he knows I like you." Zhou Zhou said, "He and I are just sexual partners, that's all. He's insignificant. You're my friend, there's no need to avoid suspicion."

After saying this, she suddenly laughed, with a hint of self-deprecation, "She said she liked you, but slept with someone else. She seemed like a scumbag who was hanging on to you."

Yan Yiqi lowered his head and smiled silently, his eyes resting quietly on her, and the smile spread outwards: "Then hang on, I am happy with it."

"Let's go." Zhou Zhou let go of his hand.

The elevator was not far ahead, and Zhou Zhou had come up from there before.

The two of them had only taken a few steps when Yan Yiqi suddenly stopped and shifted his gaze to the right: "What a coincidence, your new friend is also picking someone up?"

"What?" Zhou Zhou followed his gaze and saw a tall figure at the international arrival exit.

Cheng Yu seemed to be on the phone.

He looked the same as she had always seen him, always in a relaxed manner.

But his inherent dignity and coldness were still there. Even when he leaned against the railing at the exit, with a nonchalant tone between his lowered brows, he was a beautiful sight.

Cheng Yu lowered his head, his eyes unfocused, not knowing where to look on the ground.

"I don't know him." Zhou Zhou was about to look away when he heard someone calling Ayu.

Her gaze, which had been withdrawn, was momentarily frozen as she looked up. A young and beautiful woman came out pushing a suitcase, a gentle smile on her face.

The woman was also holding a cell phone to her ear, and it was obvious that she was the person Cheng Yu was calling.

As soon as she spoke, the man who had been acting unruly all the time slowly stood up, raised his eyebrows slightly, and put his phone back in his pocket.

He naturally took the other person's suitcase and gave the woman a hug with one hand.

The woman's smile deepened, and a faint dimple appeared on her cheek. She grabbed Cheng Yu's sleeve, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the cheek, almost touching the corner of his lips.

Cheng Yu didn't move, with a casual smile on his face.

He put his arm around the woman's shoulders and talked to her as they walked in opposite directions.

Yan Yiqi stood beside her and took in the entire scene.

He was quiet for a second before saying, "He doesn't seem to be following your rules."

It's more than just against her rules?

The man who told her in her bed how it felt to lose control and swore that their relationship would last more than half a year was now kissing other women unscrupulously at the airport.

These two events happened only six hours apart.
