Chapter 68: Deskmate and Bet
"Fu Yining you——"
Zhong Qi looked agitated, and it was unclear whether she was angry or something else.
When no one expected it, she suddenly bent down, stretched out her hand to pinch Fu Yining's face, sneered and said: "I owe you money?"
"Yes!"
"how much?"
"One piece!"
Fu Yining's intuition told her that Zhong Qi owed her money, a whole dollar!
Neither of them gave in to the other, and Song Qingyu clenched her hands nervously.
Zhong Qi stared at Fu Yining for a long time, her lips moving slightly, "Then tell me, why do I owe you money?"
"Because——" Hey, why was it?
Seeing that Fu Yining couldn't give a clear answer, Zhong Qi curled her lips and let go of her hand.
"No way, Fu Yining, you actually forgot such an important thing?"
"Ah?" Is it important?
Fu Yining was puzzled.
Zhong Qi did not explain any further. She took her daughter's hand again without even saying goodbye, then walked away with her daughter with her head held high.
Fu Yining looked at her receding figure and wondered, why did he owe her money? And why did she suddenly recognize her?
Seeing that there was no conflict between them, Song Qingyu finally felt relieved.
"Mom, who was that person just now?"
"My high school classmate."
Fu Yining touched her red cheeks and complained that after so many years, Zhong Qi's hands were still so strong.
Song Qingyu couldn't help laughing when she heard her seemingly complaining but actually happy words, "Mom, you and this aunt must have been very good friends in the past!"
"Should, right?"
In fact, Fu Yining was not too sure. There was no trace of Zhong Qi in the memory given to her by the original body. She could only interact with the other party according to her intuition and the vague impression in her mind.
But now it seems that the effect is good.
Although Zhong Qi looked fierce and didn't want to communicate with anyone, she left Fu Yining a phone number before she left, asking her to call her when she had thought it over.
Looking at the note lying quietly in the palm of his hand, Fu Yining wondered how the two of them broke up.
"Mom, aren't we going shopping for clothes?" Zhong Qi held her daughter Youyou's hand. The little girl raised her head and asked in her sweet voice.
Zhong Qi was stunned, stopped, looked down at her daughter and explained: "Baby, let's go upstairs to eat something before coming down to buy clothes, okay? Mommy will buy you an ice cream!"
When Youyou heard the word "ice cream", her big eyes lit up.
"Mom, Mom, I want ice cream, strawberry ice cream!"
"Okay, Mom will buy you one, but you can only eat one."
"Yeah, mom is the best!"
After Zhong Qi coaxed her daughter, her mind drifted elsewhere.
She met Fu Yining once a few months ago. At that time, Fu Yining and Fang Fei were walking together, talking and laughing. She just took a look at them and walked away from them.
If she hadn't seen Fu Yining sitting with a strange woman today and accidentally heard her dislike for Fang Fei, Zhong Qi would never have taken the initiative to approach her and talk to her.
It was obvious that Fu Yining was her best friend in high school, while Fang Fei was the best at saying one thing in public and another behind the scenes, and none of her classmates liked her very much.
In particular, Fang Fei once tried to smear Fu Yining and hook up with Yu Zhili, who was already in a relationship. After the truth was revealed, her classmates condemned her shameful behavior.
But after graduating from high school, Fu Yining suddenly had a brain storm and completely forgot about Fang Fei's crime. He immediately became friends with her, and even a close friend.
The classmates couldn't understand, especially Zhong Qi.
Zhong Qi once found Fu Yining and accused her of being blinded by greed and playing with Fang Fei. At that time, Fu Yining had just given birth, and with a weak face, she didn't allow her to say a bad thing about her new friend.
The two parted unhappily. Fu Yining began to unilaterally stop answering calls and messages. After that, Zhong Qi stopped contacting her. She watched her interacting with Fang Fei coldly, and watched her being deceived by Fang Fei until she was left with nothing but her underwear.
To put it bluntly, Zhong Qi felt that Fu Yining had been trained by Fang Fei into a good dog, who obeyed Fang Fei's orders in everything and didn't even realize that he was being played around by others.
So over the years, whenever Fu Yining and Fang Fei appeared together, Zhong Qi never got involved with them. Fu Yining didn't want to listen to anything she said anyway.
Except today...
After buying ice cream for her daughter, Zhong Qi opened her friend list and found Yu Zhili, and sent him a greeting.
[What's wrong with your wife?]
Zhong Qi felt strange when she remembered that Fu Yining said she owed her a dollar.
After graduating from university, Zhong Qi worked in her own company. Not long ago, she took over her father's position and became the new head of the company, which is one of the three largest entertainment companies in the country, Zhuxing Entertainment.
Even without this identity, Zhong Qi could still afford to pay back the money, but she just didn't want to give it. She didn't want Fu Yining, who had forgotten the bet between them, to get the money easily.
Before leaving, Zhong Qi struggled for a long time, but finally gave her new number to Fu Yining.
At this moment, she was looking at her phone which was turned off, not knowing what she was expecting.
"Mom, you eat too!"
Youyou picked up the small spoon and passed it to Zhong Qi's mouth. Zhong Qi smiled and accepted the feeding from her daughter...
==========
As soon as he returned to Shanhaiwan, Fu Yining received apologies from officials of several luxury brands.
They removed all the bills that Fang Fei had recorded with her, returned the money that was wrongly deducted, and said that they would never make such a mistake again.
Fu Yining was very satisfied when he saw the huge amount of money in his account.
Fang Fei still wants to take advantage of her? Dream on!
She watched Aunt Hu and the others bring the bags she bought for Song Qingyu back to the room. After thinking for a while, she decided to sit in the living room first.
Fu Yining took out the note from her coat pocket, stared at the number on it and thought carefully: Why did Zhong Qi owe her a dollar?
Well, it seemed like...it was like a bet, and she won in the end.
But what is a bet?
Fu Yining searched carefully for possible clues in his mind. He didn't know how long he had been sitting in the living room until he heard Wang Yue's voice outside.
"gentlemen!"
"Um."
With the sound of footsteps, Yu Zhili appeared in the living room, and Fu Yining's thoughts were interrupted.
"Madam, I'm back." he said.
"OK."
Fu Yining nodded, looking at the handsome man in front of her, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind.
“……!”
Shit! She remembered what the bet was!
In excitement, Fu Yining ignored Yu Zhili's presence and immediately took out his cell phone and sent a friend request to Zhong Qi using the number on the note.
[Hello, can you pay me back?]
