Gong Chengjue remained silent.
"Young Master, Miss Luo has arrived." Outside, the servant's voice rose slightly, knowing that they were discussing serious matters, and tactfully did not approach.
"Your Miss Luo has arrived." Gong Chengjue's lips curled slightly.
Sheng Yuanshuo: "..."
The door opened, and Gong Chengjue went out first, followed by Sheng Yuanshuo.
Luo Ziqi, a popular singer and actress, is tall and beautiful, and is having a secret relationship with Sheng Yuanshuo.
"Ziqi," Sheng Yuanshuo called to his girlfriend, introducing her, "This is Chengjue."
Luo Ziqi smiled sweetly and generously, "Mr. Gong, it's an honor to meet you."
Gong Chengjue nodded slightly.
"You go to the card room first, I'll see Chengjue off." Sheng Yuanshuo gave his girlfriend a gentle smile.
Luo Ziqi slightly turned her body to let them pass.
Gong Chengjue was driven to the parking lot by Sheng Yuanshuo. Before getting into the car, he teased his friend, "You and this Miss Luo have been talking for quite a while."
“Ziqi is different from other women.” Sheng Yuanshuo couldn’t help but smile when he mentioned his girlfriend.
Gong Chengjue smiled but remained silent.
……………………
Su Ziqing originally wanted to go back to her own apartment, but thinking about what happened in Switzerland, she followed Gong Chengjue's arrangement and went back to Gong Chengjue's home.
When she returned, Gong Chengjue had not yet come back. Bored, she turned on the TV and started watching the drama series starring her friend as the female lead.
Watching her friend in the TV series, Su Ziqing missed her. She picked up her phone and called her friend, "Ziqi."
Upon hearing Su Ziqing's voice on the other end of the phone, Luo Ziqi immediately stood up from the card table and said as she walked out, "You still remember me, girl. I thought you weren't planning to contact me anymore."
"You know I've been through so much lately." Su Ziqing, holding a cushion, nestled on the sofa, watching TV. "Hey, your new drama is really good."
"Don't give me that question. I'll be in City A for the next couple of days. When are you free to meet up with me?"
"Huh, you're in City A? You're such a busy person, aren't you on a film set?" Su Ziqing has been abroad for the past two or three years, only occasionally returning to City A. Most of her friends are also on film sets, so the two of them haven't seen each other for almost half a year.
"Let's have dinner together the day after tomorrow," Su Ziqing said, calculating the time and suggesting a planned meeting time.
As soon as Gong Chengjue returned, he heard that Su Ziqing had made an appointment for dinner the next night. His brows furrowed slightly involuntarily. He changed his shoes in the entryway and walked towards Su Ziqing.
He suddenly returned, and Su Ziqing stopped talking on the phone. "Then we'll see each other the day after tomorrow. You can play cards first."
After hanging up the phone, Su Ziqing stood up. She didn't see Luo Jinhan come in with her. There were only the two of them in this huge house, and for some reason, she felt unsafe.
"You've made plans for the day after tomorrow?" He and she haven't even had a proper date meal yet.
“Yes, it’s my friend. It’s been a long time.” Su Ziqing nodded. “Um… I met my second uncle. He wanted to cooperate with me, but I didn’t agree to it right away.”
Su Ziqing steered the conversation to business, "I'll listen to you, let's keep him hanging for one night."
Gong Chengjue took off his coat, sat on the sofa in the hall, and rubbed his slightly swollen temples. "Hmm."
"What's wrong?" she asked, noticing his tired appearance.
"I think I caught a chill; I have a bit of a headache."
"Do you have any medicine at home?" she asked, heading towards the first-aid kit.
"No need, it's fine. I'll be fine after a bath. It's late, you should go to sleep." Gong Chengjue glanced at the TV.
The TV series shows Luo Ziqi dressed in ancient costume, and yes, she is indeed a beauty.
"You're a fan of celebrities?" He suddenly realized that girls usually like to follow celebrities.
"Huh?" Su Ziqing was stunned, not understanding why he suddenly asked that question.
"It's alright." I have favorite singers and movie stars, but I wouldn't call myself a fan.
Gong Chengjue didn't say anything more, stood up, and said, "Good night."
"Um... remember to take your anti-inflammatory medicine." His injuries couldn't be ignored.
It seems that ever since they met, they've both been having a lot of bad luck.
……………………
Su Ziqing was also very tired. She went back to her guest room, filled the bathtub with water, and then lay down to soak comfortably, thinking about what Su Tianhao had said.
And also, tomorrow's shareholders' meeting...
Does Su Tianhao really not know?
Did you not participate in the murder of your grandfather?
She was certain that both Old Madam Su and Su Tianming were involved.
The thought of them doing such beastly things for money made Su Ziqing's eyes blaze with anger. Human nature is truly the most unreliable thing.
"Ah!" Suddenly hearing a shout from next door, Su Ziqing immediately reacted, stepped out of the bathtub, grabbed a towel, wrapped it up hastily, and rushed out. "What's wrong?"
Inside the room, Gong Chengjue was also wrapped in a bath towel around his lower body, his bare upper body still damp, and he was covering his wound with his brows furrowed.
"Did you touch the wound?" Su Ziqing asked with concern. "Should we call Dr. Qin to come and treat the wound?"
As she reached for her phone, Gong Chengjue grabbed her wrist, saying, "No need..."
"But……"
"I just bumped into something, and it hurts," he said honestly. "I just played two rounds of mahjong with them."
"You're injured like this, and you're still playing mahjong?" Su Ziqing was furious. "Gong Chengjue, you...you..." She managed to say "you" twice, but then she couldn't finish her sentence.
Does he even care about his own health?
Gong Chengjue explained calmly, "I can't let others know that I'm injured."
Su Ziqing: "...Achoo." She sneezed.
The movement was a bit too sudden, and the bath towel she was wrapped in almost slipped off. Su Ziqing jumped up and immediately caught it with one hand.
I was so worried about his wound just now, but now that everything's alright, I realized that we were both wrapped in bath towels.
Su Ziqing's face flushed red instantly. "You, let go." Why was he still holding her hand?
Only then did she realize the ambiguous temperature on her wrist.
Gong Chengjue's eyes fell on her sexy collarbone. Her fair and smooth skin was still damp with moisture, and the faint scent of shower gel wafted into his nose. He only felt a little dry in his mouth.
Su Ziqing felt even more uncomfortable under his gaze. She tried to break free, but couldn't, and dared not use too much force, afraid of aggravating his wound.
"Gong Chengjue, what are you looking at?!" You scoundrel!
Gong Chengjue, however, genuinely praised, "Your skin is very fair."
It feels great in the hand, though that wasn't mentioned in the sentence.
"..." Why did she feel that this was even more vulgar?
"Achoo!" She sneezed again, and Gong Chengjue finally let go of her hand.
Su Ziqing turned and left, saying, "You should get dressed too!"
