“I’m heading off now, Madam Shen,” Song Chuyi informed Shen Lu and left the ward with a cold look on his face.
Changqing wanted to go after Song Chuyi anxiously to explain herself, but Shen Lu held on to her hand and refused to let go of her. Then she asked her, “Does Fu Yu really have a girlfriend?”
“Yes, that’s right! She’s a friend of mine, and she’s a really nice person,” Changqing replied.
Shen Lu fell silent.
Right then, Changqing’s phone suddenly vibrated, and when Changqing noticed that, she had a bad hunch about it. As expected, the vibration was caused by Song Chuyi as he sent a text message: “See you at the entrance of the hospital in twenty minutes. I’ll be there waiting.”
“Mom, you’re awake.” Right at that moment, Fu Yu suddenly returned to the ward with a lunch box in his hand. But when he noticed the pale yellow lunch box on the table, he promptly froze on the spot momentarily. “Changqing, you had your dinner already?”
“Yeah. It’s great to have you back here, Brother Fu Yu. I have some urgent things that need my attention at the television station, so I’ll be heading off now. Auntie, I’ll come and visit you again next time,” Changqing said hurriedly and immediately scurried away from the ward, taking the yellow lunchbox with her.
She wasn’t that stupid that she would accept Fu Yu’s advances of giving her a ride home. Fleeing from him was currently the utmost priority for her now.
Fu Yu put down the lunch box on the table with disappointment. He originally assumed Changqing hadn’t eaten her dinner, so he ordered some food from the hotel specifically for her. Where did that lunch box come from? Could it be that someone bought her dinner? Fu Yu conjectured.
“Yu’er, I heard from Changqing that you got yourself a girlfriend and she’s a friend of Changqing’s. Is that true?” Shen Lu continued her question with her eyebrows frowned. “Aren’t you fond of Changqing from way back then?”
“Mom, I’ve always liked her.” Fu Yu showed a face of regret as he continued to speak. “It was all the doing of that woman—she clung onto me by herself. I took advantage of her because it just so happened that I wanted to acquire her company that she was previously employed under. If I knew she and Changqing are classmates, I never would’ve gotten myself involved with her!”
“You silly child, how could you be so foolish?” Shen Lu reprimanded him. “Changqing is a person who values personal relationships greatly. Even if she likes you, she would never associate with you ever again for her friend’s sake.”
“I’ll think of a solution,” Fu Yu said as the color of his pupils turned dark.

Song Chuyi waited at the hospital entrance for more than 10 minutes, but despite that, he didn’t catch a single glimpse of Changqing showing up at the entrance. Furthermore, he couldn’t get through to her by her cell either.
He flared up into a fury and drove back to the apartment where he discovered that she hadn’t returned to the apartment either.
After waiting in the apartment for an hour, he finally decided to travel to the Yan’s family villa, filled with anger.
Yan Lei happened to be present at the villa, and when he saw Song Chuyi coming to visit, he hurriedly asked him: “Chuyi, is Changqing unhappy living at your apartment? Why did she come back despite only being there for three days?”
“Dad, it’s my fault. I’ve been working overtime constantly these past couple of days, and this resulted in me neglecting her as I had no spare time to accompany her. Thus, Changqing got a little upset about it. I came here to look for her because I got anxious as I couldn’t find her in the apartment when I returned, and I couldn’t get ahold of her,” Song Chuyi frowned and said worryingly.
Yan Lei comprehended the whole situation after hearing Song Chuyi’s explanation. He was well aware of the temperament of his youngest daughter, so he didn’t doubt Song Chuyi’s words. “She’s in her room. She ran up to her room just now upon hearing the rumbling sounds of the car outside when you came. She must be throwing a tantrum.”
“In that case, I’ll go and get her,” Song Chuyi told Yan Lei. However, when he was just about to start climbing the stairs, Yan Lei stopped him and whispered, “She definitely won’t open the door if you knock on it. Let me give you her door key instead.”
Song Chuyi was dumbfounded, and while he was still in a daze, Yan Lei instantly found the key and passed it to him before encouraging him with a smile. “That girl will be fine once you hug and coax her with some sweet talk.”
“… uh, thanks Dad.”

Changqing immediately ran up to her room and locked the door from the inside upon hearing the rumbling noises of a car. Even if Song Chuyi knocked on the door, she was determined in never opening the door no matter what. She was sure he wouldn’t dare to throw a fit while he was in her house.
Once she figured out how to deal with Song Chuyi, she began to surf the Internet on a computer happily in the study; she listened to songs and read up on news. She was amazed with Ruan Yang for getting on the nominee list for the best actress award once again.
