Chapter 110 Unaware
Unaware
Since the elders said so, and he was completely confused by Bu Qianli's sudden strength, his eyes fell on the wrist that was tightly grasped. The opponent's strength was so great that his wrist turned slightly white.
Chi Dong subconsciously tried to break free, his fingers trembling slightly, and he saw Bu Qianli's dark eyes staring at him intently. His heart skipped a beat when he was stared at by this gaze, and he turned around helplessly to look at the only elder present.
However, Ms. Jiang pretended not to see it and showed a kind smile on her face. Chi Dong's heart beat faster when they stared at him like that, and he finally agreed helplessly.
However, he had already made up his mind that after returning, he would find an opportunity to return the money to Bu Qianli.
When Ms. Jiang saw Chi Dong finally nodded in agreement, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She glanced at the domineering man calmly and saw that his gloomy expression had eased a lot.
She teased in her heart: It seems that this boy is really attracted by his lover, but seeing that he still looks confused, I am afraid that his road to chasing his wife will be long!
Ms. Jiang understood her nephew's character. Although she was a little surprised that he suddenly fell in love with a man, the surprise was only fleeting.
After all, over the years, neither she nor her sister had ever seen or heard of him having an affair with anyone else, let alone anyone of any gender.
Even the only scandal was a false news caused by him sending her daughter to school. When she and her sister saw the gossip, they almost believed it to be true.
After a closer look, she realized that the beautiful girl in the picture was her sweet daughter who had just entered college.
This scandal made them laugh and cry, and in the end, Bu Qianli found someone to clarify and suppress the matter, which calmed the storm.
At this time, Ms. Jiang glanced at the watch on her wrist, and her delicate eyebrows slightly frowned. "It's getting late. You should go back quickly. I have an appointment, so I won't keep you for dinner."
Chi Dong's head nodded quickly like pounding garlic, and the strands of hair on his forehead swayed gently: "Okay, you are busy, I won't disturb you, I will go back to school first, goodbye, senior, Aunt Jiang."
Bu Qianli felt that the wrist he had grabbed was trying to break free, so she followed his wishes and gently let go, whispering, "I'll take you there."
Ms. Jiang: "Well, let Qianli take you back. He has a car."
Chi Dong didn't want to trouble him, so he quickly shook his head and refused: "No, no need, I can just take the bus back."
However, Bu Qianli seemed to have lost his hearing and turned a deaf ear to his refusal. He just walked straight towards the counter, picked up the large bags of clothes that had already been packed, and walked out the door.
Chi Dong was frightened by his sudden action. He ran to him hurriedly and tried to snatch the bag away. However, he didn't have enough strength and the bag remained motionless and was held firmly in his hand.
"Senior, please let me get it."
"……Need not."
Chi Dong was anxious: "The clothes are very heavy, please give them to me, Senior."
“…”
This time Bu Qianli remained silent and had no intention of handing the bag to Chi Dong. He strode towards the parking lot while paying attention to whether the people behind him were keeping up.
Before leaving, Bu Qianli dodged Chi Dong's hand that was reaching out to grab the bag, turned around and nodded to her aunt behind her.
"Aunt, I'll take him back first."
Chi Dong followed him and said hastily, "Aunt Jiang, we're leaving first. See you next time."
"Okay, okay, see you next time. Bye."
"Yeah, hey, wait for me, Senior."
Chi Dong was afraid that Bu Qianli had already left and would not wait for him, so he jogged after her. However, as soon as he turned a corner, he saw Bu Qianli stopped there, looking at him with an unclear expression, as if she was... waiting for him?
Looking at that handsome figure, this unrealistic and fantastic idea suddenly flashed through Chi Dong's mind. However, the next second, Bu Qianli continued to move forward, which immediately made him dispel the idea.
Seeing this, Chi Dong couldn't help but smile bitterly: Maybe he just stopped to rest because he was tired, so don't let your imagination run wild.
Bu Qianli's car was parked near the shopping mall. As they were walking, Chi Dong kept persuading Bu Qianli to give him the big bags of clothes in her hands.
Perhaps because he was so persistent, or perhaps because he was tired, Chi Dong finally got half of the bag.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Bu Qianli brought Chi Dong to a car, opened the passenger door, motioned for Chi Dong to get in, and then gave him the bag.
Chi Dong obediently did as he was told.
He sat stiffly in the passenger seat, his eyes involuntarily following Bu Qianli, watching him put the bag on the spacious back seat, then open the driver's door and get in.
"What's wrong?"
Without waiting for Chi Dong to look away, Bu Qianli turned around and looked straight at him, her eyes filled with profound meanings that he could not understand.
"No, nothing."
Bu Qianli's voice startled Chi Dong who was staring at someone in a trance. He turned his head in panic and his face turned pink.
"Seat belt." Bu Qianli's eyes would occasionally fall on Chi Dong. After he fastened his seat belt, Bu Qianli started the car. "Xiao Dong, where do you live now?"
Chi Dong replied, "Building 16, Zhuyuan, North Gate of Z University."
Hearing that it was still the address of Z University, Bu Qianli frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Did you apply to stay in school during the summer vacation? Are you not going home?"
"Well, I applied to live in the school. My parents came to Beijing to play during this period, so I won't go back."
Chi Dong hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not tell his parents that they were coming to Beijing for medical treatment, and he gave a simple explanation.
His words made Qianli think of Dongdong Zang, who had been chatting with him. They had many similarities. Both were students and both had the word "Dong" in their names. The most coincidental thing was that both of their parents came to Jingshi, but one came to play and the other came to treat an illness.
Bu Qianli came back to his senses and chuckled, "That's good. There are many delicious and fun places in Beijing. You can take them there more often."
Chi Dong nodded and said, "Yeah, I have the same idea. After they are better...er, settled, I will take them to see it."
Bu Qianli said calmly: "Well, you can contact me if you need help."
"Okay, thank you, senior."
"You're welcome. You take a nap first and I'll wake you up when we get there." Bu Qianli noticed the fatigue between his brows, looked at the time, and suggested slowly.
But Chidong didn't want to sleep. It was a rare opportunity to be in the same space with the person he loved, so he didn't want to sleep no matter how sleepy he was.
Chi Dong resisted the urge to sleep: "I... am not sleepy."
Seeing this, Bu Qianli did not force him, but just nodded slightly and said "hmm".
The distance between the city center and Z University is not far, but it is definitely not close either. It takes an hour by bus, and 30 minutes by car if you are fast.
The atmosphere was a little quiet on the way back to the city. Chi Dong didn't say anything because he was worried that he would hinder Bu Qianli's driving, and secondly, he was so sleepy that he could clearly feel Zhou Gongzheng calling him, and he was afraid that he would yawn if he opened his mouth.
Bu Qianli turned the steering wheel skillfully, his attention occasionally falling on the people around him. Taking advantage of the gap between red lights, he turned his head to glance at Chi Dong, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"What are you thinking about? Why don't you say anything?"
Bu Qianli's voice was not as strong as before in the store, and she turned back into the person Chi Dong was most familiar with.
"Ah? Nothing, I'm not thinking about anything. I'm just curious..." Chi Dong was startled by his sudden question. He couldn't help but licked his dry lips with his tongue, and his fingers unconsciously rubbed the corner of his clothes.
The green light came on, and Bu Qianli continued to drive forward. "What are you curious about?"
"I'm curious... How did you know that I found an internship?"
Chi Dong actually wanted to ask this a long time ago, but he never found the chance to ask seriously. He remembered that he had not announced that he had found a job yet, and even his roommates in the dormitory did not know about it yet. How did Bu Qianli know about it so quickly?
Could it be that...
No, it's impossible!
Chi Dong thought so in his heart, shaking his head to deny, while unconsciously clenching his fist and pinching his palm hard, trying to deny the possibility that Bu Qianli had ever read his resume.
Hearing this, Bu Qianli's face remained calm, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his tone was calm and composed, "You said it yourself, have you forgotten?"
Chi Dong looked at him in surprise: "Did I say that?"
When did he say that?
How come he doesn't know it himself?
"Well, you said that when you were chatting with your aunt."
“…”
Seeing how determined Bu Qianli looked, could it be that he really said that?
It's strange, how come he has no impression of it at all?
While Chi Dong was recalling and trying to find his memories, he secretly observed Bu Qianli who was driving, trying to determine whether he was lying.
But he went over what had happened before in his mind again, and still couldn't remember having said anything similar.
However, Chi Dong looked at Bu Qianli's handsome face hesitantly, and finally, the biased weight slid towards him, admitting that he had let the cat out of the bag.
After all, in his heart, Bu Qianli would never lie, not to mention that he was just a junior whom he had met a few times. What good would it be to deceive him?
So he must have remembered it wrongly.
"Oh, so I said that. Maybe my memory has deteriorated and I can't even remember what I said. Sorry, senior."
Chi Dong's cheeks suddenly turned red, even his ears turned red, his hands were clasped together awkwardly, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
Bu Qianli looked at Chi Dong for a few more seconds without making a sound, then he was silent for a few seconds before he opened his thin lips and said calmly, "It's okay. By the way, I haven't congratulated you on finding a job yet. I wish you a successful internship and fruitful studies."
Hearing this, Chi Dong couldn't help but smile, and his tone changed from shy just now, "Thank you for your blessing, senior."
“When will you start work?”
"I will report to the company tomorrow." Chi Dong felt nervous when he thought about tomorrow, and he said hesitantly, "I am a little worried that I will fail in my job application..."
