Chi Shuyan was very satisfied with Young Master Jing’s words and gave him a profound look. She hadn’t expected him to see through her cover at first glance.
Even Manager Qian, who had interacted with her a few times before, probably thought that the pills were refined by the person behind her.
While Chi Shuyan was satisfied with the man in front of her, she was also more wary and fearful. She made up her mind to be careful in the future in her dealings with the man, just in case.
Chi Shuyan naturally didn’t refuse the man’s goodwill. She took out her phone to add him on WeChat, but as soon as she turned on her phone, it almost exploded.
Qi Zhenbai had actually called her dozens of times in the last half an hour. Chi Shuyan was a bit stupefied. Her first reaction was: Had that man gone crazy?
After her daze, she pretended not to see the missed calls. Besides, why was that man looking for her now? Her own business was more important.
She had just clicked on WeChat and was about to add Jing Hengran, when her phone rang again. Chi Shuyan saw that it was Qi Zhenbai.
Chi Shuyan directly ended the call and said to Jing Hengran, “I’ll scan Young Master Jing’s WeChat!”
Jing Hengran naturally had no objections and was very happy to open his WeChat QR code for her to scan. However, just as Chi Shuyan was about to scan it, her phone rang again. It was still Qi Zhenbai.
Chi Shuyan was a bit stumped and frowned. She subconsciously hung up on the man, but as soon as she did, he called again.
Chi Shuyan: …
Jing Hengran mistakenly thought that she had something important to do and said, “There’s no hurry. It seems that Miss Chi has something important to do. Why don’t you answer the phone first?”
Chi Shuyan: …
Chi Shuyan didn’t want to see scum like Qi Zhenbai anymore, nor did she want to have the slightest contact with him. Now that he was looking for her, however, she could only grit her teeth and answer the call. Besides, if she didn’t answer, Qi Zhenbai would probably keep calling her, and she wouldn’t be able to scan Jing Hengran’s WeChat at all.
She could only answer the phone first.
Soon, the man’s deep and familiar voice rang out; it sounded a bit like he was panting harshly. “Where are you?”
The man’s tone was as powerful and calm as ever, but if one listened carefully, they would be able to detect a trace of panic!
Chi Shuyan didn’t know that because Assistant Zhu made her sound so pitiful, Qi Zhenbai had been scared out of his wits and had rushed home.
When he saw that all her things were gone, his expression turned even more deathly pale and nervous with fright.
Qi Zhenbai didn’t want to acknowledge it. However, his wife wasn’t picking up his calls. For the first time in his life, he felt fear. When he heard her voice, the man’s originally vicious and nervous expression calmed down a little.
However, his face was still frighteningly gloomy. He gripped the phone so tightly that it creaked and his slender fingers turned slightly white.
Qi Zhenbai stood expressionlessly in front of the living room window of the apartment and clearly saw his angry red eyes and gloomy reflection.
Although Chi Shuyan wasn’t listening closely, she could still hear a hint of something wrong in the other party’s tone. However, she didn’t think much of it and didn’t want to bother with him anymore.
Besides, the man had already found a new partner; why was he looking for her?
A scumbag wasn’t worth her attention.
However, thinking of how she had moved out but had yet to let him know, Chi Shuyan thought it was better to be clear, and she said in a polite and distant tone, “It doesn’t matter where I am. Why are you looking for me?”
“Where?” The man didn’t answer her, but repeated his question. His voice also dropped in tone, and was completely unyielding.
Chi Shuyan frowned a little. She didn’t know why the man was suddenly asking where she was, but she suddenly wondered if he had already returned home and knew that she had moved out.
Was that why he was calling her?
Of course, Chi Shuyan didn’t believe that he had called so many times because he missed her. She had already experienced too much of this man’s coldness and heartlessness recently.
Of course, even if Qi Zhenbai really suddenly missed her now, she didn’t care.
She said calmly, “You went back to the apartment? If you’re there, you should have seen the key on the table, right? Since we’ve broken up, I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to stay at your place anymore. I’m returning the key to you!”
At that point, Chi Shuyan looked at Jing Hengran and Manager Qian on the side. She didn’t want to make things too ugly with this man in front of outsiders, and there was nothing to argue about.
She was prepared to say a few polite words.
Although she occasionally scolded him in her heart, she knew very well that it wasn’t wrong for him to find a new partner after they broke up, nor was it wrong for him to flirt with the other party. So, she was prepared to end things amicably and never see him again.
So, she squeezed out a smile and forced out a few pleasantries. “No matter what, thank you for your hospitality and care in the past. I also wish you a long life with your new love, and child…!”
Before Chi Shuyan could finish speaking, she heard a loud bang on the other end of the line. It was so loud that Chi Shuyan jumped in fright. Even Manager Qian and the Jing family heir, who were a little further away, jumped in fright when they heard the loud bang.
Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to say more to the man, nor did she have anything to say. She directly ignored the man when he asked again, “Where?” and hung up.
When Chi Shuyan hung up, the face of the tall, expressionless man in the apartment gradually cracked and then changed drastically. He suddenly turned around and took a few steps, raised his foot, and directly kicked over the round table in the living room. With a loud bang, the round glass table shattered into pieces on the floor. A cold, hard, vicious expression on that handsome face was clearly reflected in the full-length window!
