C109 (1/2)
”The number you dialed is temporarily unanswered, please try again later …” The cold robotic female voice came out from the phone once again. Chu Yu could only hang up, feeling a little uneasy.
Usually, when Xiang Qicheng went out to socialize, he would send a message or call her to inform her that he would be back at most, at most not later than 11 PM.
But now, when she looked at the clock hanging in the living room, it was already 1am. After she finished working at the company in her study, she realized that Xiang Qicheng had not come back yet.
Reluctantly, she dialed the number in her hand again. This time, it was the notification sound of the other party shutting down. She became even more nervous as she fidgeted around on her cell phone, feeling a bad premonition.
”Chuchu, hurry up and sleep. Maybe Prime Minister Ji has something important to tell you.” Chu Xuan, who had woken up to go to the bathroom, squinted his eyes and comforted her when he saw that the light in the living room was still on.
Chu Yu nodded his head, with a serious expression, he went upstairs to his room and laid on the bed.
After an entire night of sleeplessness, it took a while before the sky lit up. Looking at the sky turning white, the first thing she did when she woke up was to open Xiang Qicheng's room door.
Chu Yu was feeling more and more uneasy, but in his heart, he was still holding onto a bit of luck. Maybe Xiang Qicheng was really busy at the company and did not have the time to tell him?
Furthermore, although himself was involved in many of the matters at Chu Family Group company, he was the one who handled them most of the time, and there were a lot of things piled up over this period of time.
Thinking of this, Chu Yu's uneasy heart calmed down a little.
The sun slowly rose from the horizon, and the first ray of sunlight shone through the big window. Chu Yu prepared breakfast and went upstairs to change his clothes.
”Good morning, everyone. This is an entertainment broadcast room, and upon receiving the latest news, the CEO of Xiang Family Group and the daughter of the Xu Family spent the night together. The two of them walked out of the hotel room side by side, their demeanor as intimate as if they were newlyweds …” Chu Yu could no longer bear listening to the rest of his words, all the blood in his body seemed to solidify in that moment.
On the screen, Xiang Qicheng's tall and big figure was walking shoulder-to-shoulder with Xu Tiantian as they left the hotel. A pair of handsome men and beautiful women appeared, looking extremely pleasing to the eyes.
And Xu Tiantian's expression was extremely sweet and blissful, it even gave Chu Yu the illusion that she was Xiang Qicheng's wife.
The cup shattered into pieces as it fell onto the ground. Chu Yu stared blankly at the scene in front of him.
She remembered this Xu Tiantian, she had already started a scandal with Xiang Qicheng previously, and she actually trusted him without hesitation back then. It was laughable now that she thought about it.
The two of them played around with her. Was she stupid or was she too naive?
”Chuchu, I will not get involved with you and Xicheng. You settle it yourself. But one thing is, you have to have a good time. ” Chu Xuan watched the entertainment news on the television with a serious face as he opened his mouth, looking at his daughter with eyes full of worry.
Looking at it over a long period of time, he knew how much Chu Yu liked him and also knew just how big of a blow this news had dealt to Chu Yu.
But no matter how much he said about them, it would be useless. He just liked Chu Yu being able to think things through, and he would fully support his daughter in any decision she made.
”Yes.” For a long time, she only faintly responded, then silently stood up, grabbed a broom, and swept the broken glass onto the trash can.
In the afternoon, the sunlight shone through the treetops and onto the ground, Chu Yu quietly looked at the courtyard, the expression on his face extremely calm.
