NOVEL WEB The car was cruising on the road when Song Luokui gave Chi Yu a direct call, "There's a guy who wants to have dinner with me. I'm going to eat at the place near your building. Are you free to join us?"
Chi Yu: ???
"Who?" How could he not be free! Even if he wasn't free, he had to make himself free.
Song Luokui: "You'll know when you see him. Gotta hang up now, I'm driving."
Chi Yu stared at the disconnected call for two seconds, immediately stood up and headed for the elevator downstairs. His secretary knocked on the door to remind the boss about an upcoming meeting, but found that the boss was no longer in his office.
In the end, the secretary learned from the receptionist that the boss had left. He had no choice but to postpone the meeting.
Half an hour later, Song Luokui arrived at the parking lot of Shan Yu Group. Wei Li, who was there, spotted her too, though he didn't know why she had come to this place - he knew what Shan Yu Group was.
Could it be that the restaurants nearby were particularly good?
After getting out of the car, Song Luokui looked towards the alighting Wei Li and said, "Come with me, it's nearby."
Song Luokui led him straight into the lobby of Shan Yu Group. Those who had been waiting for Chi Yu immediately noticed them, including the man trailing behind her.
Wei Li asked in puzzlement, "Isn't this Shan Yu Group's office building? What delicacies can there be here?"
Song Luokui turned and replied, "The food in the cafeteria is pretty good."
Wei Li: ?
By then, Chi Yu had reached Song Luokui's side, embracing her while glaring at Wei Li, "Is that him?"
Song Luokui nodded, "Yes, he even threatened my employee."
With a wave of Chi Yu's hand, a group of men in black suits immediately seized Wei Li, who struggled and cried out, "What are you doing? How dare you lay hands on me? Do you know who I am? Do you know who my father is?"
Chi Yu said disdainfully, "Unsurprisingly arrogant, being from the Wei Family. Take him away!"
"Yes, sir!"
The man was promptly taken away.
Chi Yu brought Song Luokui back to his office. "What happened?"
Song Luokui recounted how Wei Li had forced her employee to comply. "He wanted me to accompany him for a meal, so I brought him here." Song Luokui looked innocently.
Chi Yu sighed, "Next time, just call me directly. I was worried he might do something to you."
Song Luokui blinked, "There'll be a next time?"
Chi Yu paused, then replied, "Of course not."
Song Luokui said, "Let me call my company first."
...
After the call, Chi Yu had her sit beside him. "Are you heading back today?"
Song Luokui nodded, "Yes, I have to."
Just then, the secretary came in to summon Chi Yu for a meeting. He told Song Luokui, "I have a meeting now. Shall we have dinner together later? I can send you back in the afternoon, okay?"
"Sure, no problem."
After sending Song Luokui back to her company that afternoon, Chi Yu went to deal with Wei Li's matter.
Wei Qing had just finished handling some overseas business when someone called and asked him to pick up his cousin. "If you don't come, I'll send him to mine in Africa."
Upon hearing it was Chi Yu, Wei Qing immediately rushed over. On the ground, Wei Li lay with his mouth gagged, his face bruised and swollen, though still conscious. But his limbs were bound.
Wei Qing glared at Chi Yu, "What's the meaning of this? Unlawful detention!"
Chi Yu sneered, "Unlawful? So you know what's unlawful? Why don't you ask him what he did?"
The guards removed the gag from Wei Li's mouth. He immediately shouted, "Brother, avenge me! Kill him for me!"
Wei Qing squatted down. "What did you do?"
Wei Li still didn't understand what had happened. "I just wanted to have a meal with a beautiful lady. She wouldn't dine with me, disrespecting me, Wei Li."
Wei Qing asked, "A beauty? What's her name?"
Wei Li paused, seeming to not know her name.
Wei Qing looked towards Chi Yu.
Wei Li then recalled, "She's probably the boss of Tian Yu, that Zhou QingRong's boss, a woman."
Wei Qing slapped him hard across the face. "Didn't you remember which people in the Capital Circle are untouchable?"
Wei Li froze in shock.
Chi Yu waved his hand dismissively. "You can take him away now. But I hope I won't hear his name again from Luokui, otherwise I might need more workers for those mines abroad."
The guards immediately untied Wei Li. Wei Qing shot Chi Yu a glance before leading his cousin away, gritting his teeth to endure a while longer.
But before the two could leave, Chi Yu added, "Oh, someone from Song Luosheng's side might be coming soon."
Wei Qing's expression changed, and he promptly took Wei Li away.
However, they hadn't driven far when two cars blocked their way. Song Luosheng got out of one and dragged Wei Li from the car. "So you're the one who wanted to make a move on my sister?"
Wei Li cried, "No, who are you?"
With a loud "Ah!", his hair was seized and he was stuffed into the other car. Wei Qing made to move but was immediately restrained by the men. Song Luosheng looked at him coldly. "You can act, but I don't think you'd want to keep dealing with overseas matters after just returning from abroad!"
Wei Qing froze, making no further move as he watched Song Luosheng take Wei Li away.
Wei Li yelled, "Brother! Hel-" before being muffled by a foul sock.
It was evening before Wei Qing finally went to retrieve his cousin. Song Luosheng remarked, "Your brother is quite the idiot. I suggest sending him back abroad."
Wei Qing walked away with an ugly look, gritting his teeth to endure a while longer.
That night, Chi Yu took Song Luokui to attend a party in their social circle. Ever since they had been together, Song Luokui found that Chi Yu often took her to various events.
At the banquet, she reunited with her sisters, breaking away from Chi Yu to join them. "You're here too?"
Weng Jiao laughed, "Just here to have fun. Look at you, ever since getting together with your man, when was the last time you paid attention to our news?"
Song Luokui smiled sheepishly. "Well, I do have other things going on. I'm not always with him either."
Just then, Lou Sasa nudged Song Luokui conspicuously, indicating someone was trying to seduce her man.
Song Luokui immediately turned to see a woman in a white dress conversing with Chi Yu. There was something odd about her face that made Song Luokui feel strange.
Zhang Xiyue immediately said, "Luokui, isn't she imitating you? She even does her makeup to look like you, though she still doesn't match your beauty." Song Luokui finally realized why she felt it was strange when Zhang Xiyue said that - the person did look a bit similar to her.
Chi Yu was very annoyed on his side. Previously, there were people who tried to seduce him, but he had them directly taken away. However, he didn't expect to encounter someone like that at the banquet, and she was even putting on airs and graces. Who gave her the nerve to imitate his precious one?
"Dear Brother Chi, my father is Wu Ping. I'm Wu Moli. I just came back from abroad and heard that you started a company that's doing very well. I've recently graduated and am staying at home with nothing to do. Can I go work at your company and do odd jobs?"
