Chapter 5 Who are you?
Qi Wang's eyes were gloomy, and his expression did not change at all because of her anger.
"wife?"
He seemed to be savoring the word "Jie" and said with some regret, "Miss Chi, have you ever acknowledged that I am your husband?"
All the anger was like being poured with a basin of cold water, extinguished completely and there was no possibility of it rekindling.
Chi Yuan opened his mouth, but the word "I'm sorry" could not come out.
She owed him four years of marriage, there was no denying it.
But now... everything that happened to me tonight was caused by him.
Apologize? Forget it.
"Even if I'm not your wife, and he's done something beyond the line to me, why can't I fight back?"
Chi Yuan gritted her teeth and was unwilling to accept it, even though Qi Wang was determined to put this hat on her head.
"Oh! Miss Chi, you are not smart."
The man stood up, his clean, slender fingertips grazing the tabletop, moving with his pace as if giving some instructions.
"It is your right to fight back, but don't forget who you are here."
"You're a waiter, you can't hit customers. That's the rule of the industry."
"Head-on confrontation is not a wise option."
The calm and steady voice was like a tranquilizer, and it actually calmed down Chi Yuan's inner resentment.
She was about to speak when Qi Wang brushed past her shoulder and left, his eyes always fixed ahead.
"Let's go. I'll take you back."
Chi Yuan woke up as if from a dream, turned around and refused without hesitation: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Qi, but I still need to work. Let's talk after get off work if you have anything else."
Send her back? Are you kidding?
She won't buy into the idea of giving her a slap and then a sweet treat!
Qi Wang didn't look back, and said, "Whatever you want."
Seemingly indifferent.
Chi Yuan closed the door of the box and finally dared to take a breath.
After calming down, I couldn't help but feel scared.
She didn't have to do this job, but the 50 million that came with it... she really needed it.
"identity……"
Chi Yuan leaned against the sofa and smiled self-deprecatingly. He cleaned up the mess on the floor before leaving the box.
Perhaps Qi Wang was right.
Now she has no right to act on impulse and must learn to endure everything.
The club's business hours usually last until midnight, and Chi Yuan is already very tired when he gets off work.
After finally reaching the bus stop, she leaned against the bus stop sign and took out her cell phone to look at it.
There are several messages in the small group of a family of three, and the most recent ones were sent ten minutes ago.
"Yuanyuan, tell dad when you get off work and he'll pick you up."
"Don't keep it to yourself if you've been wronged. Things will work out in the end. We don't need you to bear that anger."
…
Warm liquid dripped onto the phone screen. Chi Yuan immediately turned off the screen. Her tear glands seemed to open a valve and she couldn't control it.
The wind in the middle of the night was very cold. Chi Yuan finally couldn't hold on any longer and squatted down, hugging himself with his arms, tears flowing harder and harder.
The suppressed sobs were unheard in the dead of night.
How could there be a bus at midnight? Chi Yuan knew he had to take a taxi home.
After finally calming down, Chi Yuan took out her cell phone and saw car lights flashing on the side of the road, gradually approaching her.
Chi Yuan didn't care until the car door opened automatically. No emotion could be heard in his deep voice.
"Get in the car."
She didn't move, and it could be said that she was deliberately ignoring it with all her strength.
"The club closes at 11:30 p.m., and taking a taxi every night is a considerable expense."
Chi Yuan then looked up, his expression relaxing a little.
"Then you pick me up from get off work every day?"
Having just cried, his voice was a little hoarse. Chi Yuan cleared his throat but remained motionless.
She should be thankful that it was night time so that Qi Wang wouldn't see her in such a state.
Although he had seen many people in a miserable state.
"Let's talk in the car."
The man's voice deepened. "I don't have that much patience."
Chi Yuan bit her lip lightly and had to endure it for the time being.
After getting in the car, she stopped talking and didn't even look at the man next to her.
At the red light, Qi Wang pulled the handbrake, turned on the headlights, tilted his head to glance at the woman who had been staring out the window, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes.
"ah!"
His bony fingers brought her chin to his face.
Chi Yuan was like a frightened deer, with a defensive look in his eyes: "What are you doing?!"
In fact, she didn't understand why Qi Wang appeared at the bus stop tonight.
Mr. Wang was sent to the hospital for treatment. Qi Wang is his partner and should be in the hospital at this moment.
It's impossible that he was just here to take her home.
"It seems that Miss Chi hasn't learned her lesson from today's incident."
Qi Wang suddenly lowered his head, and his hot breath sprayed on her nose.
He had a pleasant cedar scent, clean and refreshing. Chi Yuan's mind instantly flashed back to several routine nights.
She was resistant at first, but she had to admit that Qi Wang's skills were pretty good, and the feeling of being enveloped by his aura... wasn't bad.
It even made her feel... at ease.
When this thought came to mind, even Chi Yuan himself was shocked.
"What are you thinking about? You're distracted."
When she came back to her senses, the man's lips were already behind her ear: "Miss Chi, you have a nostalgic expression on your face. Could it be that you are reliving our memories?"
"roll!"
Chi Yuan wanted to retreat, but the man pressed the back of her head and forced her to look at him.
"Get out? Chi Yuan, now besides me, who else will help the Chi family?"
After the words fell, the woman's pupils contracted sharply, and Qi Wang was very satisfied with her reaction.
"Think it over and talk to me later."
Just as the light turned green, Qi Wang let her go and continued driving.
Chi Yuan suddenly remembered that he was discussing cooperation tonight and was driving now, without a trace of alcohol on his body.
Thinking about it, she asked, "Didn't you drink tonight?"
"Do you have to drink alcohol when you socialize?"
Isn’t it?
Chi Yuan then turned his head to look at the man driving the car. He seemed to be speaking very seriously.
"You don't have to drink to discuss cooperation, and waiters in the club don't have to accompany drinking to get commissions. Do you understand?"
Turn right at the intersection and you will be home in a short distance.
Chi Yuan wasn't so stupid as to not even understand the subtext of his words.
She said with a half-smile: "Boss Qi is very popular now, who would dare to ask you to accompany him for drinks? Unlike me, I really thought that I was just a waiter and just a wine maker, and I could be asked to accompany him..."
The car braked suddenly, Chi Yuan held on to the front, saw that there was a lot of empty space in front of the car, and was about to have a seizure.
But I heard the sound of the seat belt being unfastened.
"Ask me to be a drinking companion? Do you think I forced you to do this?"
Without the restraint of the seat belt, Qi Wang leaned over and pressed forward.
"you……"
Chi Yuan subconsciously retreated until she could no longer retreat. Then she took a deep breath and said, "Isn't it?"
She paused, then, as if to risk it all, said, "You had the manager arrange for me to deliver expensive wine, and deliberately let me hear about the auction of the ancestral land. Wasn't that a hint? You even lectured me about fighting back. Why?"
After saying so much, the man didn't react at all. He could only feel the gradually increasing force of his fingertips.
