Chapter 162: Qi Zhenbai, Who Came Late at Night from Afar
Qi Zhenbai quickly calmed down, took her hand and entered naturally, as if walking into his own house.
Chi Shuyan pursed her lips and closed the door, and had the man in front of her sit on the sofa. When the man let go of her hand, she immediately poured him a cup of water. Although it wasn’t cold during the day, the wind was quite strong at night and it was quite cold.
As the man drank the water, Chi Shuyan sat beside him and observed him. Although he had come over travel-worn, he still looked like an elite, especially with his good looks, cold face, gray suit, and natural aura. He was tall and stood out from the crowd.
Chi Shuyan hadn’t felt much at first, but thinking about their recently confirmed relationship, she felt a rare trace of nervousness.
Why was this man so good-looking?
Moreover, the more she looked at him, the better he looked. He was so good-looking that even though she normally didn’t care much about his looks, she was actually stunned by the man’s face in front of her for a moment.
Chi Shuyan coughed softly and felt a bit guilty, wondering why she was suddenly smitten too.
Qi Zhenbai, on the other hand, was very satisfied with the woman’s attention. A rare smile appeared on his lips, and his frosty face softened a bit, accentuating his extremely handsome and delicate features.
Chi Shuyan gathered her thoughts and broke the ambiguous silence in the room as she asked, “Why are you here all of a sudden? You can call me tomorrow if there really is something!”
“Are the results out?” Qi Zhenbai suddenly changed the topic.
“I haven’t received the notice yet!” Chi Shuyan nodded, wondering why the other party was suddenly concerned about her grades. The results were out and she had applied, but she had yet to receive the notice.
Could it be that this man rushed over in the middle of the night just to ask about her grades?
The more Chi Shuyan looked at the man in front of her, the stranger her expression became, but Qi Zhenbai wouldn’t tell her. He had been provoked by that rascal Zhu Bocheng and had just wanted to make a phone call at first, but in the end couldn’t help but rush over.
This spirit rice incident also confirmed to him yet again that the woman in front of him wasn’t in his grasp, and could escape at any time. Knowing this, he, who had always been as steady as a mountain and was in love for the first time, panicked a little.
His personality was a bit dull and unpleasant, and he was afraid that this woman in front of him couldn’t stand it and would really fall in love with someone else; rushing over was also good. They had just confirmed their relationship, and Qi Zhenbai really wanted the woman in front of him to immediately receive the notice so that he could take her back to the capital to properly nurture and consolidate their relationship.
Qi Zhenbai suddenly said, “Why don’t you come back to the capital with me first tomorrow, and I’ll have someone send the notice to the capital?”
Chi Shuyan was puzzled and asked, “Is there anything urgent in the capital that requires my attention?”
To be honest, although their relationship had already been passively confirmed, she still didn’t want to spend too much time with the man in front of her.
In her past life, she was used to being alone. She was still a bit unused to the sudden appearance of a “boyfriend” creature. What was more, this boyfriend was a very powerful figure. She wasn’t sure if the two of them could get along well.
Qi Zhenbai took in the subtle changes in her expression and his eyes dimmed a little.
Qi Zhenbai’s face remained unchanged as he recounted the matter of the spirit rice and Zhu Bocheng’s grandma’s recovery. As he spoke of the efficacy of the spirit rice and Zhu Bocheng’s grandma’s recovery, Qi Zhenbai’s face was very solemn. Even if this matter involved Zhu Bocheng’s grandma, he still wasn’t happy about the woman in front of him taking a risk.
At the thought of other people coveting Chi Shuyan’s abilities and the consequences of them discovering the truth, Qi Zhenbai inexplicably felt rage well up in his chest. “Do you know the consequences if someone with ill intent finds out about the spirit rice? Fortunately, it was only Bocheng who asked you for it. If it were anyone else, do you know what the consequences would be?”
