Xu Nian nervously pulled Mu Qingqing to the bar entrance, but Mu Qingqing told her to relax and just follow her.
"Niannian, where is your boyfriend?" Mu Qingqing knew that Xu Nian had a boyfriend, but she hadn't met him yet.
It wasn't that Xu Nian was unwilling to take her to see him, but rather that the man repeatedly made excuses and refused to see her.
Mu Qingqing felt that Xu Nian's boyfriend was strange, but she didn't say much. This was a major life event for Xu Nian, and she couldn't comment on someone she had never met.
"He told us to go directly to VIP room 888 on the third floor," Xu Nian said, holding her phone.
"Niannian, your boyfriend is quite rich. You can't usually get a room in the 888 private room." Mu Qingqing also comes to play often, but she only uses the booths and rarely goes to the private rooms.
"Hmm! I think so!" Xu Nian pursed her lips, feeling absurd as she thought about how she met this "boyfriend".
With Mu Qingqing leading the way, Xu Nian went straight up to the third floor, where she met her boyfriend Song Bo at the door.
When Song Bo saw Xu Nian, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled brightly and said, "Girlfriend, you're finally here."
"Song Bo, I'm late. Let me introduce you. This is my best friend, Mu Qingqing," Xu Nian said, linking arms with Mu Qingqing.
"Hello, Ms. Mu! Thank you for bringing my girlfriend over." Song Bo's sunny image easily wins people's favor, and at least Mu Qingqing's first impression of him wasn't bad.
"I was worried about Niannian coming here alone, so I'm sorry to bother you today." Mu Qingqing smiled playfully, meaning that she would stay by Xu Nian's side today.
“No problem, more people means more fun.” Song Bo led the two into the private room, greeted everyone, and then arranged for them to sit down.
Mu Qingqing sized up the seven or eight people in the private room. Some had brought female companions, while others did not. Judging from their words, actions, and clothing, they were all people who were not short of money.
“Niannian, none of your boyfriend’s childhood friends are simple. Do you know your boyfriend’s background?” Mu Qingqing was worried that Xu Nian was being deceived by rich people.
In her opinion, Xu Nian was too naive and easy to fool, and she was worried that if someone was nice to her, they would try to lure her away.
"Don't worry, Qingqing, I know." Xu Nian didn't want to tell Mu Qingqing that she was just a part-time girlfriend.
Song Bo only invites her to gatherings; otherwise, the two don't contact each other.
"It's good that you know what's going on, Nian Nian." Mu Qingqing leaned on Xu Nian's shoulder, observing the people around them.
I noticed that these people were all glancing frequently toward the door of the private room, as if they were waiting for someone.
Xu Nian noticed it too, but she didn't want to draw attention to herself. She was just doing her job for money, so she didn't ask Song Bo who had come.
After an unknown amount of time, the door to the private room clicked open, and a man with a cold and stern face walked in. He was still wearing a suit, clearly having just come from work.
"Brother Chi, you're here."
"Brother Chi, come and sit down."
"Brother Chi, it's been a long time."
The group of people in the private room greeted the newcomer. Chi Yu nodded to everyone and naturally sat down in the middle of the group, taking the center position.
"Brother Chi, you have to have a drink today. We've organized several gatherings, but you only show up once." Song Bo poured Chi Yu a glass of wine, and the others egged Chi Yu on to drink.
"Alright, I'll drink this one." Chi Yu picked up his glass and downed it in one gulp. As he put the glass down, he glanced around and saw Xu Nian next to Song Bo.
Noticing Chi Yu's gaze, Song Bo quickly introduced her to him: "Brother Chi, this is my girlfriend, Xu Nian. She's timid, so please don't scare her."
"Hmm!" Chi Yu's throat tightened, and upon hearing that it was Song Bo's girlfriend, he calmly withdrew his gaze.
But in the following period of time, his gaze would always intentionally or unintentionally drift towards Song Bo.
His expression was too indifferent, and his gaze too cold; he simply stared at others without attracting their attention.
Chi Yu only got up and left, feeling bored, after the party ended.
Everyone was used to Chi Yu's coldness; it was already a favor that he was invited out to have a drink with them.
Song Bo had been drinking and wasn't fit to drive anyone, so Xu Nian and Mu Qingqing took a taxi home.
Mu Qingqing lives at home, while Xu Nian lives alone in a rented apartment.
Mu Qingqing dropped Xu Nian off at the bottom of the apartment building before going back home.
As Xu Nian went upstairs, she glanced back and noticed a black car parked under the dim streetlights.
She didn't pay any attention and went straight to her room on the third floor.
When she came out of the shower, she received several messages from Song Bo and a transfer notification on her phone.
After accepting the money and saying thank you, Xu Nian began her other part-time job: writing novels.
Although she didn't earn much each month, it was still money, and Xu Nian was determined to earn every penny she could.
Xu Nian was busy until 11 p.m. before she finally turned off the light and went to sleep, yawning.
She has to get up early to go to work tomorrow.
After returning home, Chi Yu's mind was filled with that fleeting glimpse of her in the private room.
He knew this was wrong, but his mind had its own thoughts, and the man's face kept appearing in his mind, and he couldn't shake it off no matter what he tried.
"Did I fall in love at first sight?" Chi Yu said, then chuckled to himself.
How could that be? How could he be such a shallow person?
Chi Yu felt that his idea was too absurd, as he had never really wanted anything since he was a child.
He has everything at his fingertips, so why would he be interested in someone else's girlfriend?
He doesn't have any particular quirks.
But when he thought about what he did later, he couldn't help but wonder if he really had no intention of doing anything.
If you really have no interest in it, why bother acting like a stalker and having the driver follow you the whole way?
Chi Yu wasn't sure; he thought he might have been holding back his feelings for someone else's girlfriend because he was feeling really stifled.
Oh well, she's just a woman. I'll forget about her tomorrow after a good night's sleep.
Chi Yu thought this and did it. He took a quick shower and dried his hair, then lay down on the bed.
Perhaps due to the effects of alcohol, or perhaps due to exhaustion from work, Chi Yu fell asleep quickly.
But when he woke up the next day, he felt terrible. He lay stiffly in the blankets, his long, strong hands covering his eyes.
His expression was very serious, as if he was thinking about something important.
After an unknown amount of time, he chuckled softly, his eyes gleaming with the light of a hunter.
He is Chi Yu; moral standards mean nothing to him.
He rarely takes a liking to someone; if he doesn't try to bring her to his side, does he expect her to get married and have children?
Even if he disagrees, he'll still try to take her away from her.
That delicate and gentle person should be his.
After figuring it out, Chi Yu got up in a good mood.
He changed all the sheets and duvet covers and threw them into the washing machine, then took a cold shower, put on a black and white suit, and became the aloof and cold Chi Yu again.
But his eyes were different after all.
