"Honey, are you free this weekend?" Yu Xinyu composed herself and slowly sat down next to Cen Yu.
Cen Yu was unsure of Yu Xinyu's meaning, "Just say what you want to say."
"Qiang Yuanqing invited us to his hot spring resort this weekend." He deliberately addressed Qiang Yuanqing by his full name, whether to avoid suspicion or specifically for Cen Yu to hear.
"Qiang Yuanqing?" Cen Yu seemed to pout as she immediately took the bait.
"Your childhood sweetheart?"
He looked at Yu Xinyu with great displeasure. "He invited you to the hot spring resort? Doesn't he know you have a boyfriend?"
"Maybe he has some ulterior motive," he muttered to himself. "Heh, I told you, he's interested in you!"
Ugh! Cen Yu felt like throwing up after saying that.
The smell is too strong!
He glanced at Yu Xinyu's expression out of the corner of his eye and saw that her cheeks seemed to be flushed red with anger...
Is that going too far?
Cen Yu was a little unsure. What if Yu Xinyu cried? He had always said that this system was unreliable, and he even had to come up with the lines himself.
He was hesitating whether to speak up and salvage the situation when he saw Yu Xinyu look up and smile at him. His cheeks were still a little red, but no tears welled up in his eyes.
"...Honey, you're overthinking it."
Yu Xinyu said gently to Cen Yu, "How could he like me?"
"He just treats me like a brother."
Haha, I treat you like a brother now, but I might not think that way after we go to the resort!
Having mastered the script, Cen Yu felt as if he had seen through the whole truth.
Realizing that the second phase of the stock-buying attack was about to begin, he immediately mustered his fighting spirit—
"Alright, stop explaining. I have time this week."
He muttered to himself again, then looked at Yu Xinyu suspiciously, "I'm telling you, stay away from your friend."
Yu Xinyu's smile remained unchanged, and even the flush on his cheeks was the same as before. He looked at Cen Yu, who was still muttering something, and said, "Okay, husband... I will remember."
...
Yu Xinyu had just returned to her room.
I couldn't help but recall the tone of Cen Yu's voice just now—
So cute, baby.
He thought, "She actually suspected he was with another man and got angry..." Thinking of this, Yu Xinyu paced back and forth in the room, feeling a little anxious. He then opened the painting he had been covering up.
He looked closely at the Cen Yu he had drawn.
Then, like an animal with a stereotyped behavior, he walked around the room in circles until he had walked six or seven times, and he still couldn't contain the surging emotions in his heart.
Start making harassing phone calls to people he knows.
"Hello." Yu Xinyu's voice was not as gentle and charming as before. He said into the phone, "We'll come over this weekend."
It was quite noisy over there in Qiangyuanqing; it seemed to be some kind of gathering.
"Are you all together?" Qiang Yuanqing asked.
“Yes,” Yu Xinyu said.
Then, almost unable to contain his urge to boast, he began to tell Qiang Yuanqing about Cen Yu's behavior just now—
"He's so cute," Yu Xinyu said, lost in thought. "He actually suspected you might like me... and he was even jealous." He repeated what Cen Yu had just said, reliving Cen Yu's expression in his mind.
Then he said into the phone, "Luckily, I recorded it all..."
He said, "I can watch it several times."
"..." Qiang Yuanqing remained silent on the other end.
"Hello?"
"I'm hanging up." After hanging up the phone, Qiang Yuanqing really had to resist the urge to rub the goosebumps on her arms.
He suspected that Yu Xinyu was really mentally unstable!
Anyone who heard what he just said could tell that it was a scumbag trying to manipulate him, right?! Yu Xinyu actually thought that the other person was just jealous.
Qiang Yuanqing held the champagne glass in her hand, stood on the terrace in the corner of the banquet, and couldn't help but take a sip of the wine.
Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw someone else walk onto the terrace as well—
"When did you get back?" Qiang Yuanqing looked at Lou Baichuan with some surprise, not expecting him to attend the banquet.
Lou Baichuan loosened the bow tie around his neck, leaned against the terrace and took a breath before saying to Qiang Yuanqing, "Some time ago..."
"Then why didn't we hear any noise?"
"I have no plans to go back for the time being," Lou Baichuan said frankly.
Qiang Yuanqing knew some things about the Lou family. They originally started out in manufacturing, and their business grew bigger and bigger. Then came all those well-known, ridiculous things. Lou Baichuan's relationship with his family wasn't very good.
Besides himself, Lao Lou also had 3 sons and 4 daughters, making him quite a womanizer.
He had a bad relationship with his father and was vaguely thinking of breaking away from the family to work on his own... Qiang Yuanqing had heard rumors about this before, but he never expected to run into Lou Baichuan now.
He didn't ask any more questions, but Lou Baichuan was clearly a capable man, more worthy of befriending than the rest of the Lou family's good-for-nothings.
So he invited the other person to visit his hot spring resort, which had not yet officially opened.
"Not open yet?" Lou Baichuan asked in surprise.
"Yes, there's no one else but a few friends," Qiang Yuanqing said with a smile. "It's a private hot spring, so you won't see anyone else."
"Besides my childhood friend and his girlfriend, there's no one else."
Lou Baichuan was also somewhat tempted upon hearing this, and immediately arranged a date with Qiang Yuanqing to visit the hot spring villa... The terrace where the two were located was secluded, and perhaps no one expected that there were two people hiding there, so they spoke without restraint—
"Sang Qianshan really likes men?!"
"...Ah, the old master of the Sang family must be furious."
"I think Sang Qianshan is really going to be kicked out of the Sang family this time."
There was a hint of schadenfreude in the conversation, but Qiang Yuanqing had no interest in it. He was about to cough to remind the gossiping people outside that there were other people present.
Then the voice said again—
“Sang Qianshan even went to the building where that person worked to pick him up after get off work.”
"Tianhe Building? What companies are located there?"
Lou Baichuan initially didn't care, but when he heard the familiar name of Tianhe Building, he frowned—
Isn't this the building where I work?
