Back home, after having a few drinks, Chu Fang lay down on the sofa and fell asleep immediately.
Before going to sleep, he even found a blanket and covered his chest with it, not because he was cold, but because he was used to it.
From childhood, under Chu's mother's guidance, she felt like she would catch a cold if she slept without a blanket.
Even in 35 or 36 weather, you'll catch a cold if you don't cover your chest with the blanket while sleeping.
Suddenly, a slight sensation pulled him from his sleep, and he opened his eyes slightly.
Qin Qin walked in, wearing shorts and a t-shirt, which showed off her hot figure to the fullest.
Chu Fang stared at her, and the latter noticed his gaze. Their eyes met, and a visible blush appeared on Qin Qin's face, as if she were shy. She stammered, "I...I'm sorry, I...I saw the door wasn't closed, so I came in..."
Chu Fang pulled the blanket up to cover himself: "Thank you, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Ah, oh, it's nothing. I was just tired from reading, so I was just taking a walk." Qin Qin sat down next to him and said softly, "Brother Chu, aren't you at work today?"
"No, I just took care of some things."
"Oh, oh." Qin Qin nodded, then looked at Chu Fang, her eyes filled with admiration: "Brother Chu, you're amazing! You managed to settle down in Shanghai all by yourself, unlike me. I've lived half my life and still haven't accomplished anything. I can't even afford a hotel room for an exam..."
Chu Fang listened with a smile.
Qin Qin paused for a moment, then continued, "Brother Chu, you are the most amazing person I have ever met."
Chu Fang said softly, "Thank you for your compliment. If there's nothing else, I'm tired."
Qin Qin understood the implication in his words, a flicker of panic crossing her eyes. She quickly stood up: "I'm sorry, I disturbed your rest. I'll leave right away..."
As she spoke, she squatted down to tie her shoelaces, and with just a glance from Chu Fang, she could see the beautiful scenery.
Unfortunately... Chu Fang slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Qin Qin stood up, looking at Chu Fang's posture with disappointment on her face. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything and had to leave the room.
She returned to the next room, where Liang Sisi was studying. The latter tilted her head and asked, "Qinqin, where did you go?"
"I'll just wander around," Qin Qin replied.
"Stop playing around, exams are coming up soon, study more," Liang Sisi said earnestly.
"I know, I know." Qin Qin waved her hand dismissively: "Even if I pass the exam, I'll still only earn a pittance and live a life of hardship. My life won't change at all. What I want is to be a superior person and live the life of a rich person."
Liang Sisi pursed her lips, thinking that her best friend sometimes had overly ambitious goals.
When I woke up, the sun was already setting, and the red glow filled the entire room.
Chu Fang gazed at the western sky, a feeling of loneliness rising within him.
It's all that woman's fault!
He insisted on going on a business trip!
Do you think I, your man, am incapable?
If you want, I can find you a hundred or two hundred clients; that would exhaust you.
You could have enjoyed the life of a wealthy wife, but you insisted on being some kind of modern independent woman. You've become independent, but you've left me out...
As the sun set, Chu Fang was filled with complaints.
That woman is so annoying.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, so he simply typed a message.
[Solo Queue Player in Love: Zhong Tingyue, you bastard!]
[Solo player in dating mode: You're a bad woman!]
[Solo player in a dating game: I'm never talking to you again!]
A short while later, the other party replied to the message.
[Wang Shu: ?]
[Wang Shu: You've been drinking?]
[Solo player in a dating game: I had a little to drink.]
[Wang Shu: My suggestion is, drink more. The way you act crazy when you're drunk is awful.]
[Solo queue player in a dating game: Are you being sarcastic?]
[Wang Shu: That's right.]
[Solo player in a dating game: I don't like you anymore, I'm going to find another woman.]
As he spoke, Chu Fang told Zhong Tingyue about Qin Qin's situation, his words revealing his ambivalence. He told her this so that he could tell her:
I, Chu Fang, am someone many girls covet; I'm the apple of many girls' eye. Zhong Tingyue, don't be ungrateful. Be more enthusiastic and gentle with me...
To everyone's surprise, after reading the whole story, Zhong Tingyue only gave a simple reply.
Wang Shu: Oh.
[Solo player in a dating game: Oh?]
Wang Shu: Oh.
[Solo queue player in a dating game: I'm furious.JpG]
[Solo player in a dating game: You wait, I'm off to find the other woman.]
[Wang Shu: I don't believe it.]
[Wang Shu: I believe the man I, Zhong Tingyue, have chosen is a truly good man, the best man in the world, incomparable, unique, and no one in the world can compare to him.]
[Solo player in a dating game: You... you... you're absolutely right!]
Chu Fang was initially somewhat depressed, but upon seeing those words, his depression vanished completely.
This woman has a complete grasp of his psychology.
Every word resonated deeply.
What could I do? I had no choice but to forgive her.
I'm too kind...
The two chatted briefly before ending the call. Zhong Tingyue stared blankly at the villa in front of her, seemingly lost in some world.
Until Jiang Wenzhen's hand brushed past his eyes: "Sister Zhong, what are you doing?"
"It's nothing." Zhong Tingyue shook her head, coming back to her senses. "Let's get to work quickly, finish our tasks as soon as possible, and get back to Shanghai sooner."
"What? Missing Chu Fang?" Jiang Wenzhen teased with a smile. "What is love in this world that makes people willing to die for it? Where's your usual aloofness? How come it all disappears when you're around Chu Fang? I really look down on you."
If someone had told her a year ago that Zhong Tingyue had a boyfriend and was working hard for him, Jiang Wenzhen would have slapped her across the face.
That's impossible!
But today everything is happening right before my eyes, so real.
Just then, Bai Yan's voice came from the doorway: "Still not off work?"
Zhong Tingyue replied softly, "I'll be off work soon."
Bai Yan and her boyfriend Guo Kaipeng walked in together. The arrogance and haughtiness of the past few days had completely disappeared, and the couple seemed much more normal today.
"Where's your boyfriend?" Bai Yan asked, looking around.
“He’s gone back to Shanghai,” Zhong Tingyue replied softly.
"Oh, okay." Bai Yan nodded. "I'd like to invite him to have a casual meal together."
"Next time."
The two chatted idly for a while, and as the sun gently peeked down the mountain, the couple left as dusk fell.
Guo Kaipeng sighed, "What a pity."
His grandfather believed that Chu Fang was no ordinary person, but a man of high status and influence, whose strength was no less than or even exceeded his family's assets. Therefore, he hoped that his grandfather would befriend Chu Fang.
The saying "more friends, more paths" is especially useful in business and can be helpful for family businesses.
"Indeed," Bai Yan said.
