With reddened and teary eyes, Huang Ziyue said, "Dongge, you're a good person, but I... I'm not good enough. I'm not the kind of woman who can take care of herself. I need a man who will always be by my side. When I'm sick, you're never with me. I want to talk to you when I'm frustrated at work and bullied by my colleagues, but you're always too busy. I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I realize I can't accept a lonely marriage where my husband's too busy to be beside me. I can't be a good wife, and I don't want to waste your time. I'm sorry..."
Slowly but surely, she motioned to take off the ring, but Cheng Dongge had an inscrutable look as he said, "Since I've given it to you, just keep it. I'll throw it anyway if you return it to me."
Huang Ziyue's tears dropped down, and she said, "I'm sorry."
She turned around in a flash, wiping her tears and heading out the door.
By the time she pushed open the shop door, her tears were already dry. She lifted her left hand, still with the ring on, and used her fingertips to gently rub the blurry makeup between her eyelid and outer corner of her eye.
When she turned, however, she bumped into Qi Chengyue.
"Miss Qi, " Huang Ziyue called out in shock.
'Didn't she leave already? Why is she here again?'
"Seems like there are all sorts of crappy people nowadays." Qi Chengyue mocked scornfully.
"Miss Qi, what's the meaning of this?" Huang Ziyue asked unhappily, her expression sunk.
"Deep down, you know what I mean, " Qi Chengyue remarked coldly. She stretched out her left hand, palm up."Take off your ring."
"Miss Qi." Huang Ziyue smiled coldly."This is between Cheng Dongge and me. What right do you have in interfering with us?"
"I just can't stand the sight of green tea b*tches like you!" Qi Chengyue was not in the mood to be polite.
She did not expect Huang Ziyue to snicker, who then asked, "I heard you're married. Could it be that you've always had a crush on Cheng Dongge?"
"Whatever you say then. Take off the ring. Otherwise, I'll tell you everything I heard just now to Cheng Dongge. And, since you know who I am, you should know that I have at my disposal the ability to find out who that b*stard is. And you, you definitely eyed him because of his money. With the Qi family's power, we can take away everything from that man in the blink of an eye, and you'll spend the rest of your life in despair." Qi Chengyue treated Huang Ziyue as though the latter was nothing. Disposing such a person was far too easy.
"If you return the ring, I'll treat it as though nothing ever happened. If I see you next time, I'll pretend I don't know you, " Qi Chengyue said coldly.
"You!" Huang Ziyue gnashed her teeth, unable to do anything except take the ring off and throw it unhappily to Qi Chengyue."TAKE IT!"
...
...
Cheng Dongge knew not of what he did wrong. His girlfriend of three years had already accepted his marriage proposal, but all of a sudden, she came and said she wanted to break up.
He felt as though all his blood had been sucked dry from his body. Unable to move, he sat there rigidly on his seat.
All of a sudden, he heard a slap on the desk. Cheng Dongge saw a fair-skinned hand placed atop the table, and when the hand left the table, he saw the ring that he gave to Huang Ziyue.
He frowned, looked up in confusion, and noticed that it was actually Qi Chengyue.
He stared at her expressionlessly, and she then sat opposite him, saying, "Don't let that gold-digger play you like a fool! She's been two-timing all this while with a rich boyfriend. I heard her talk with that man on the phone, telling him she loves him, even complaining to him about your shortcomings. She said you have nothing, and she also mentioned that because you're a proud man, you won't take the ring back.
"And she was correct. She just pretended that she wanted to take off the ring. Cheng Dongge, don't let yourself be played!" Qi Chengyue extrapolated softly, knowing that it was not something to shout about. She also did not want other café guests to hear what she said.
"So?" Cheng Dongge picked up the ring and dropped in into his cup of coffee."I didn't want to take this ring back because I'll throw it away even if she returns it. No one asked you to take it back for me, right? Now I'm the one looking like a fool.
"Nobody asked you to be a busybody." Cheng Dongge looked at her spitefully."On what grounds are you interfering with my affairs when you can't even take care of your own marriage? Rather than worrying about me being played by someone else, why don't you go home and take good care of your husband?"
Qi Chengyue's face turned pale and her lip trembled. She remained silent for a long time.
Cheng Dongge thoroughly regretted his words. The true subject of his anger was himself and Huang Ziyue, but he accidentally directed his anger at Qi Chengyue. Her know-it-all look, in particular, made him feel like his dirty laundry was aired for all to see, hence turning that ashamedness into anger.
Looking at Qi Chengyue's hurt look, Cheng Dongge wanted to apologize, realizing that she was probably only trying to be kind.
Qi Chengyue however, smiled."You're right. I don't have any right to advise you when my own marriage is falling apart. I'm the only one who's been played because I married someone who never really loved me to begin with. In his eyes, I'm just a source of endless money. Yet I did all those stupid things for him, like blaming Song Yu and making myself look like a mentally unstable person. What right do I have interfering with your life when I can't even deal with my own mess? Truth is, I'm the most humiliated one."
A brief loss of self-control led to her tears streaming out. She struggled and used the back of her hand to wipe them away. She then stood up and said, "Sorry to have bothered you."
Qi Chengyue ran out miserably from the café, leaving Cheng Dongge stunned for a moment. He too, ran out after her, throwing some cash to the reception as he passed by it. He hurried his footsteps and chased after Qi Chengyue.
Finally, he grasped Qi Chengyue's arm and stopped her. His face was stiff as he said remorsefully, "I'm sorry. I was just too angry. I didn't mean it that way, I didn't intend to say those things about you..."
"It's fine. They're all the truth. It's not like it's something that can't be said." Qi Chengyue flung her hand to release his grip, then began walking forward.
"Where are you going? Let me send you!" Cheng Dongge caught up to her again and offered.
Qi Chengyue simply smiled frigidly."Can't you see I'm walking toward Qilin?"
Cheng Dongge froze, completely speechless.
Qi Chengyue maintained her poker face and ignored him. Cheng Dongge was left feeling guilt-ridden and embarrassed. Qi Chengyue was only doing it out of her own goodwill. Perhaps she thought of her own marriage and therefore found it utterly despicable to see people like Huang Ziyue.
Cheng Dongge, however, was so preoccupied with his own anger that he misdirected it to Qi Chengyue and hurting her in the end.
Upon reaching Qilin's entrance, Cheng Dongge wanted to say sorry yet again, but Qi Chengyue took a turn and entered her own car. She drove off, leaving Cheng Dongge staring blankly.
...
...
After work, Song Yu sat in the front passenger seat of the car and thought of what Qi Chengyue told her that afternoon.
Qi Chengyue wanted someone to hold her hand on the street, and to reserve the front passenger seat of a car especially for her.
Song Yu then realized that Qi Chengzhi had done every single thing that Qi Chengyue mentioned. It had previously escaped her attention, and she took it for granted.
She used to blindly believe that every couple was like that, but it was then that she realized how lucky she actually was.
Song Yu turned and looked at him. It was a warm day, so his jacket had been taken off and thrown to the back seat. Back at the company, however, he had to wear it to keep up appearances. His upper body was clothed only in a steel-grey cotton shirt, with his tie loosened up considerably. The top two buttons of his shirt were undone, exposing his collarbone and sexy-looking Adam's apple. His sleeves were also rolled up, revealing his firm arms that looked even more muscular when he placed them on the steering wheel.
When he turned the steering wheel, the movement of his upper arm caused it to flex within his shirt. The fabric wrapped tightly around his muscles, accentuating their beautiful contours.
Her gaze shifted upward to his handsome face as seen from the side. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it and the more enchanted she became. She felt extremely lucky whenever she looked at him, for it still surprised her that he was her man—a loyal and devoted man that no one can ever take away from her.
Song Yu was too enchanted that she stared at him until darkness was all she saw. Only then did she realize that they were inside the garage. As the automated door rolled down, the lights flickered on, jolting Song Yu back to her senses.
Qi Chengzhi's fire was igniting deep within. Song Yu undid her seatbelt, but before she could even grab the inner door handle, she was suddenly hoisted up onto his lap, and in one swift motion, he pressed her onto the car door.
"What are you doing?" Song Yu asked helplessly as she was squeezed against the car door.
"You're asking me what am I doing when you and your big eyes seduced me while I was driving?" Qi Chengzhi was suddenly erect. He spoke as though he was the helpless one, and he was even staring angrily at her."It's because you were seducing me that I couldn't concentrate on the road. Do you know how much strength I had to use just to drive?'
"..." Song Yu blushed and was momentarily speechless. She was not seducing him at all."I didn't..."
Qi Chengzhi was having none of it. He immediately went and kissed her lips, causing her hindbrain to be pressed tightly against the car window. Both his hands grasped her waist tightly, and he then began taking off her pants.
"Qi Chengzhi!" Song Yu called out and gasped for breath during the brief moment between him breaking the kiss and attacking her neck.
His kisses were swift yet forceful, and he thirsted hard. They left Song Yu's skin feeling wet and numb, while her breathing became heavier and heavier.
Qi Chengzhi's hand moved downward, and she too followed suit, intending to stop him. The more she tried to deny him, the more chaotic things became. For a short moment, the two of them were in a state of disarray.
At some point though, the hands that denied him changed their course and began touching him instead.
Qi Chengzhi propped up her waist and placed her down onto himself. Song Yu moaned, grasping his waist with her delicate hands. She buried her face in his neck, with her hair brushing against his skin and neck.
Qi Chengzhi flung her hair to her back to expose her fair-skinned neck. He kissed there, keeping his lips on her as he made his way up to her ear. Then he whispered an order, "Give me your lips."
Song Yu obliged and turned her face to him, letting him kiss them. He stopped only when she was gasping wildly.
"Qi Chengzhi...." she panted and called his name. Her entire body was limp as she huffed continuously, trembling at the same tempo as his movements.
Qi Chengzhi thrusted hard and said, "You naughty girl! I'm so much older than you, yet you're always calling me by my full name!"
"Qi... Uncle Qi..." Song Yu's face remained buried in his neck, and after she called him that, she climaxed.
Qi Chengzhi was completely at wit's end with her. He slapped her bum and said, "When can you finally be a good girl? This isn't incest you know, why are you calling me uncle for! Call me hubby!"
Calling him hubby was something she rarely did. She only did so when she felt particularly loving, playful, or when she truly felt touched by something he did.
She could not say it if she was just asked to do so. Her face was scalding hot due to the unbearable embarrassment that she felt.
"Are you going to call me hubby or not?" he urged her. He purposely began thrusting her unpredictably—sometimes slow, sometimes fast; sometimes gentle, sometimes rough.
Song Yu's shoulders tensed up and she hugged him tightly. She remembered everything that Qi Chengyue said that afternoon. Every single condition had been met by Qi Chengzhi, even those that Qi Chengyue did not mention. He was practically the dream husband that every woman yearned to possess.
A surge of warmth appeared in Song Yu's heart and with unrestrained emotions, she said softly, "Hubby..."
Qi Chengzhi chuckled softly. Those words made him even more vigorous—almost stud-like—and he heard Song Yu's soft voice once more, "You're the best hubby."
His arms tightened their hold around her, binding her like thick pieces of rope.
"Chengzhi, I love you."
Qi Chengzhi's brain exploded. He pushed her onto the car door with all his might and kissed her forcibly. Then, with his lips still rubbing against hers, he whispered, "Sooner or later, you'll be the death of me!"
Song Yu could not help but smile. It seemed as though she always gained the upper hand and won by accident.
...
...
In the end, although Song Yu did not need him to carry her out like the first time, she was still weak in the knees and had to lean against him. He helped her into the lift.
Once they entered the lift, Song Yu leaned against the wall. Qi Chengzhi squeezed in too, sandwiching her in between himself and the wall. He did not move at all, and because of that, she was able to stand firmly onto the ground.
Song Yu's hands were placed flat on his chest. Her still-lustful eyes seemed annoyed at him, and it nearly melted Qi Chengzhi. His hands then clung to her, unable to move away from her skin.
"Qi Chengzhi, do you hate it?" After all those dirty deeds Qi Chengzhi did to her, she poked his chest a couple of times.
"I hate it." Qi Chengzhi admitted immediately.
Song Yu, "..."
Song Yu had no comeback since he said it like that.
He leaned closer, brushed against her lips, and asked huskily, "Do you like it if I hate it?"
"..." Song Yu blushed, and after a long time, finally managed to spit out three words."I hate it!"
Qi Chengzhi chuckled with amusement after seeing her distressed look. His voice was sexy and pleasing to the ears, just like the pizzicato of a violin's thicker strings.
When he saw that the lift was nearly coming to a stop, he raised her up suddenly and kissed her when their faces were nearly level.
He placed her down only when the lift door opened. Song Yu eventually walked into the house with swollen lips and messy hair. Aunt Yang looked at her, then looked at the ceiling in embarrassment before walking away.
Song Yu, "..."
Qi Chengzhi remained as bold and confident as ever, without the slightest hint of guilt or shame.
...
...
The next day, Qi Chengyue went to Qi Chengzhi's office.
Cheng Dongge was shocked. He and Qi Chengyue parted ways unhappily the day before. Thinking that Qi Chengyue was going to the company, Cheng Dongge wanted to apologize properly to her. However, Qi Chengyue went for her car instead, leaving Cheng Dongge in the dust.
He stood up as soon as he saw her. His mouth was agape and he was feeling quite embarrassed. After a while, he finally spoke, "Miss..."
To his surprise, Qi Chengyue shot him a fleeting glance before cutting him off coldly, "Is my Big Brother busy?"
Cheng Dongge swallowed back his earlier words and said, "Young Master Cheng isn't busy."
Qi Chengyue nodded, knocked on the door, and went in.
Qi Chengzhi stared at her indifferently.
He was always indifferent and cold, but at that moment, Qi Chengyue felt as though there was more weight on her shoulders.
Considering the preposterous things that she did in the past, she found it rather awkward to be facing Qi Chengzhi.
He kept quiet, giving Qi Chengyue no choice but to speak up voluntarily. She grabbed her skirt uneasily with her sweaty palms.
"Umm... Big Brother, " Qi Chengyue started speaking softly.
Still quiet, Qi Chengzhi waited for her to continue her words.
"I... Actually, I already know what kind of person Jian Yi is. I don't want to waste my time on him anymore. That day at Grandpa's place, my big brother told me everything. I believe him." Qi Chengyue mustered all her courage and said, though her voice was still shaky.
"I went to look for Song Yu yesterday." That sentence finally elicited a reaction from Qi Chengzhi—he frowned.
Qi Chengyue's heart skipped a beat and she explained immediately, "Don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to cause trouble. I just... wanted her to tell me about what happened and what she knew about Jian Yi and Guan Xiaolin. After all, she and Guan Xiaolin used to be friends.
"You didn't know that I went looking for her? She didn't tell you?" Qi Chengyue had that sudden thought when she looked at Qi Chengzhi's expression.
Qi Chengzhi, "..."
Qi Chengyue told Song Yu not to tell anyone, but she did not expect that Song Yu—perhaps in an attempt to prevent further complications—would also choose not to mention the fact that they met.
"My point is, she said the same thing as my big brother. She told me to act as if nothing's happened and to let my big brother find evidence that can help me get a divorce. Even if Jian Yi disagrees, we can use legal avenues. But Jian Yi mustn't find out anything, or else he'll look for a way to cover up and mess up my big brother's investigations." Qi Chengyue then continued, "I've decided to follow their advice."
She looked at him, but his expressionless self still remained quiet.
Qi Chengyue simply wanted to sigh. She was incredibly envious of how well Qi Chengzhi treated Song Yu, but at the same time, she looked up to Song Yu. Dealing with someone of Qi Chengzhi's attitude was truly an uphill task.
The expression Qi Chengzhi had on as of right then piled up even more pressure on her.
Qi Chengyue's tongue grazed across her lips and continued bravely, "I came here looking for you because I wanted to ask if the company has any business trips that I can go on? If I keep staying with Jian Yi, I might not be able to contain the hate that I feel toward him, and I'm scared I'll expose the plan."
Qi Chengzhi continued keeping quiet with no indication as to what his thoughts were. Qi Chengyue thought that there were no suitable assignments at the time, so she said, "I know it's a bit sudden, and for me to suddenly ask for this kind of job..."
"I have a villa in T City but the keys are with Song Yu. I will get it from her tonight and pass it to you tomorrow. Stay in T City first. Take a break. I will inform Chenglin. We will proclaim that you are on a business trip. Everything will be fine as long as you return before Wei Minghao's birthday and attend his birthday party. During this time, Chenglin should be able to do a thorough investigation into Jian Yi."
