Gu Yuan avoided the kiss.
His eyes sank, and he gently kissed her neck. The sound, cautious and soft, like the lonely melody of a violin string, echoed, "Yuanyuan, wait for me, I'll sort this out."
Wait for you?
Wait for you to cheat, huh?!
Damn it—Gu Yuan was amused with anger, did he think she was a fool!
Gu Yuan raised her hand and blocked him with her elbow, asking, "Getting arrogant now?"
Chi Yu was puzzled, and called her softly, "Yuanyuan..."
"Chi Yu, do you not have a heart?"
Gu Yuan's lowered eyelashes covered the deep sadness in her eyes. She thought she already understood Chi Yu thoroughly, but it turned out she was too conceited.
This man hid his true self so well.
When Gu Yuan left, Chi Yu didn't stop her because the master bedroom he and Yuanyuan shared had been entered by another woman. He couldn't stand it, it had to be new, it must only have Yuanyuan's scent.
But in Gu Yuan's view, it was different; it was that this man's heart had already changed.
Yi Shu had been outside the door the whole time, naturally unaware of the commotion inside. Suddenly the door opened, and Gu Yuan walked out expressionless. Yi Shu stepped forward, "President Gu."
Seeing it was Yi Shu, Gu Yuan curled her radiant lips, "Why didn't you go in to get your phone?"
Yi Shu: !
Gu Yuan: "Next time if you encounter a situation like today, you can borrow the Gu Family's PR team. After all, they are top-notch, saving you from running around covering things up."
What a splendid sarcasm.
President Gu was so formidable! Yi Shu nearly bowed down.
After Gu Yuan left, Yi Shu finally pulled himself together and went in.
Chi Yu had finished a bottle of soda and was getting up when he saw Yi Shu come in: "You can go back, there's nothing much here."
After a pause, he added, "After the concert ended and I left for a couple of days, was there a blue box among the personal items Xiong Yao packed?"
If Chi Yu hadn't mentioned it, Yi Shu would have forgotten.
"Yes, there was."
The ring that Xiong Yao had packed from Chi Yu's personal belongings had been left that night. Chi Yu had been gone for two days, and Yi Shu had been busy for two days, completely forgetting about it.
No choice, there were too many things for a manager to worry about.
Upon knowing the ring was still there, Chi Yu's eyes brightened, "Bring the ring over tomorrow morning, and also have the cleaning staff come early to renew the master bedroom inside and out."
He couldn't stand another woman entering his and Yuanyuan's bedroom, especially without him being prepared, so he even took a shower in the guest bathroom outside the living room.
Just now, he went into the master bedroom to get his phone.
Before he could go in, Yuanyuan came...
"Okay." Yi Shu nodded and said, "The ring is in my office drawer. I planned to wait for you to come back and ask what the situation was... On the night of the concert, were you really planning to propose to President Gu?"
Chi Yu did not answer.
On the wainscoting in the center of the living room, in addition to hanging famous paintings, there was also an oversized oil painting of Gu Yuan.
It was painted by Chi Yu himself.
...
The next morning, Yi Shu brought the cleaning staff to clean the room.
Last night, Chi Yu slept in the guest room.
Yi Shu handed the blue ring box to Chi Yu, "See if it's this one."
Chi Yu took it, opened it, and his expression suddenly relaxed, "Keep an eye on the cleaning, make sure the air circulates once, and no corners are missed." He kept the ring box, put it in his coat pocket, and stood up to leave.
A few steps away, Chi Yu stopped, turned around, and reminded Yi Shu: "From now on, besides you, Xiong Yao is not allowed in here either. If the situation from last night happens again, there's no need for you to come either."
