Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Chong had already booked a ride online, and the car was waiting at the hotel entrance. When Zheng Chengyang saw this, he quickly got into the backseat first. Song Nian took a look and opened the front passenger seat door. Shen Chong also went to the back without saying a word.

The two people sitting in the back did not want to talk to each other. They did not even want to look at each other on the way. Song Nian remembered that Shen Chong had said that he was his girlfriend, but she reckoned that he knew his words were not believable. He did not act like her boyfriend at all.

Shen Chong had already planned the route for the trip. Song Nian did not ask where they were going but simply enjoyed the scenery along the way.

Although they came out quite early, when they reached the scenic spot, they could see that many people were lining up. Song Nian stared outside and asked, “Where are we going?”

Shen Cong hurriedly said, “The Ends of the Earth.” This spot is very famous here. I don’t think you’ve seen it before, right? I just wanted to bring you here to take a look.”

He automatically ignored Zheng Chengyang. Zheng Chengyang took out his phone with a dark expression and sent a message to Qi Yu. Qi Yu had just finished washing up and was putting on his clothes. He picked up his phone and took a look. On it was a message from Zheng Chengyang, “That man wants to take your ex-wife to the ends of the Earth.”

Qi Yu deleted the message immediately, his face full of impatience.

After he was done packing, he went to the hotel restaurant. However, just as he entered, his phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and did not pick up. He had not gone to settle the score with the people at the dinner last night, but those people came over first. 

Before Qi Yu could even start eating the food he ordered, a woman entered the restaurant. She was dressed skimpily in a short floral skirt and a large sun hat.

Qi Yu saw the woman when she entered the restaurant, but he did not react. There were not many people in the restaurant at this time, so the woman immediately saw Qi Yu. She hesitated for a moment before slowly walking over.

When she walked to Qi Yu’s side, she had a perfect smile on her face, “Director Qi.”

Qi Yu acted as if he didn’t hear her and took two bites. The woman licked her lips and continued, “I called you earlier, Director Qi, but you didn’t pick up.”

Qi Yu put down his chopsticks, picked up a tissue, and wiped his mouth. Then, he leaned back on the chair and looked at the woman without saying anything. The woman didn’t dare to sit down under his gaze and could only stand stiffly on the spot. 

She could hold her own quite well as she could still manage to continue talking to Qi Yu, “Director Qi, we didn’t get to talk much at the dinner yesterday, and you disappeared. Our Director Liu was looking for you everywhere, but you didn’t answer when he called you. We were quite worried.”

Qi Yu sneered, “Worried about what? Worried that the drug would take effect and I would do something indecent?”

The woman’s expression changed suddenly, and she forced a smile, “What do you mean by that, Director Qi? I don’t quite understand.”

Qi Yu crossed his arms, “I think you understood it perfectly. You know very well that I don’t like to beat around the bush. If your Director Liu doesn’t have any intention of collaborating, then let’s not waste each other’s time.”

When the woman heard Qi Yu’s words, she was instantly stunned. She wanted to grab Qi Yu’s arm, but just as she raised her hand, she thought of something. She quickly put down her hand and stood properly, “Director Qi, you must have misunderstood something. Our Director Liu has a very clear intention to work with you. Our company has been preparing for a very long time to achieve this collaboration.”

The woman was really flustered, and her tone was a little nervous. Qi Yu looked at her and was a little curious, “I went to get the wine myself that day. It was impossible for me to pick out the glass that was laced with drugs. So how did your Director Liu manage that?” He thought for a moment and said, “I remember that you also took a glass and drank it.”

The woman hesitated for a moment before nodding with an innocent look on her face, “There’s nothing wrong with my wine. Director Qi, what are you talking about?”

Qi Yu smiled and no longer had the appetite to continue eating. He slowly stood up, “Alright, whatever you say.”

Qi Yu made a gesture to leave. The woman panicked and directly grabbed Qi Yu’s arm, “Director Qi, Director Qi!”

Although there weren’t many people in the restaurant, it wasn’t good for a man and a woman to pull each other like this. Qi Yu lowered his gaze and watched the woman’s hand that was pulling his arm. His brows slowly furrowed.

Qi Yu’s temperament was cold, and he usually kept a straight face and didn’t like to talk. Now, although he didn’t seem too angry when he frowned, he gave off a threatening aura, as if he was ready to beat someone up the next second..
