A week had passed, and Song Luokui had recovered. Although there were still some traces, they didn't affect her walking.
She felt a bit bored in the meantime. Song Luosheng had someone push her to go shopping at the mall and let her buy whatever she wanted, saying, "When my brother has some free time in a few days, he'll accompany you."
"Yeah, you go ahead and do your thing."
Just then, in the afternoon, Chi Yu messaged her, "Are you feeling better now?"
Song Luokui remembered how Chi Yu had carried her before, as if... she owed him a favor again... Song Luokui rubbed her face and replied, "I'm fine now."
Chi Yu: "Do you want to go out and have some fun?"
Song Luokui: "?"
Chi Yu: "I'll come pick you up."
Song Luokui's fingers flew across the keyboard as she typed, "My brother won't agree."
Chi Yu: "He won't be able to come back tonight, don't worry."
Song Luokui: "How do you know?"
After that, Chi Yu didn't reply.
Before long, someone knocked on her room door. Song Luokui looked through the peephole and saw that Chi Yu was already there!
Song Luokui quickly opened the door. "How did you get here so quickly?" She looked around, afraid that someone might see them.
Chi Yu's gaze fell to her feet. At this moment, Song Luokui was wearing shoes, with a long skirt that reached her ankles. Chi Yu couldn't see how her feet were doing, but since she was wearing shoes, they should be fine. He looked up at her face. She hadn't put on any makeup. "Are you okay now?"
Song Luokui still had some hesitation, her hand resting on the doorknob. "Is my brother really not coming back?"
Chi Yu: "No, even if he does, it will be very late."
In fact, Song Luosheng had arranged for someone to take her out to play. As long as she made a phone call, someone would come. She did want to go out and have some fun, after all. She hadn't been out much during her recovery, and she didn't like to trouble people.
Chi Yu stood quietly with his hands in his pockets, without urging her.
Suddenly, Song Luokui looked up. "Wait for me for a moment." She quickly grabbed a bag, prepared her identification and some cash, and grabbed a coat before following Chi Yu out.
She had been worried that her brother would suddenly come back before they left the hotel.
Once they were in Chi Yu's car, Song Luokui asked, "Where are we going?"
"To Duolun Port."
Song Luokui was puzzled. What was there to do at Duolun Port? But when she arrived at Duolun Port and saw the enormous cruise ship, she realized where Chi Yu had brought her.
Princess Olivette Cruise Ship, an incredibly luxurious cruise ship. Song Luokui counted and found that it had twenty floors!
Chi Yu led her onto the ship and then took her to the topmost floor. They stood on the deck, feeling the sea breeze and sipping the drinks brought by the waiters. There was also live music playing on the deck.
The sun hadn't completely set yet, preparing to descend. The two of them stood there, watching the sunset on the sea's horizon. The sea sparkled and shimmered, creating a beautiful sight.
Song Luokui's hair fluttered in the wind, and a strand of hair fell messily on her face. Suddenly, Chi Yu pulled out a shiny hairpin. "Here."
Song Luokui's eyes widened when she saw the hairpin in his hand. She even took a step back. Chi Yu's gaze remained on her face. "Let me pin up your hair."
Song Luokui: "..." However, she found it very strange! Why would Chi Yu have a hairpin? And why did he give it to her?
Chi Yu: "Shall I help you put it on?" he said, taking a step closer to her, preparing to lower his head.
Song Luokui quickly intercepted it with a quick hand, placing the drink aside. "Thank you... I can do it myself."
She quickly clipped the hairpin by her ear, and Chi Yu stared at it for a while.
The sun quickly set, and the sea became pitch black, but the cruise ship was brightly lit. "Are you hungry? Let's have dinner."
"Okay." Song Luokui followed behind Chi Yu as they entered the cruise ship and arrived at the restaurant. The waiter quickly brought the menu.
Song Luokui noticed that there were no other people on this floor, only the two of them. "Why isn't anyone else here?"
Chi Yu replied, "Hmm, I booked the entire floor."
Song Luokui: "...Oh."
The food arrived quickly, and everything was exquisite and delicious. They started with appetizers, followed by main courses, and finally, desserts were served one by one.
There was also a live band in the restaurant, and the music changed several times.
After finishing the last dessert, a small cake that was neither too sweet nor too heavy and melted in the mouth, Song Luokui felt satisfied.
After wiping her mouth, Chi Yu suddenly reached out and gently swiped his thumb across her face. "There's still something here."
Song Luokui's face instantly turned red. She quickly took a tissue and wiped her face, looking at Chi Yu. A storm was raging in her heart. What is he doing? Is he trying to seduce me to blackmail my brother?
Song Luokui imagined Chi Yu as a big bad wolf, grabbing her and smiling wickedly in front of her brother, and eventually her brother kneeling down to beg him...
Snapping back to reality, she saw Chi Yu's calm expression. He wiped his hand and looked at her. "What's wrong?"
Song Luokui immediately shook her head.
Chi Yu looked at her red earlobe, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Then, Chi Yu took her to explore the cruise ship. The ship was large with various recreational areas such as a cinema, amusement park, swimming pool, cafe, theater, KTV, and gym.
Finally, they watched a movie together. The entire cinema was empty except for the two of them. Before midnight, Chi Yu escorted her back to the hotel.
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight. Thank you for tonight," Song Luokui felt that she had enjoyed the evening. "Thank you for helping me escape last time. I'll treat you to a meal when we get back."
Chi Yu raised an eyebrow. "No need to wait until we get back. We can do it tomorrow."
Song Luokui chuckled awkwardly. "Haha, let's just wait until we get back." Tonight, she had already been daring enough. She felt it would be better to behave a little more restrained from now on.
Chi Yu didn't insist. "Alright."
Afterwards, Chi Yu left, and Song Luokui quickly went to rest. That night, Song Luosheng indeed did not return.
The next day at noon, Song Luosheng returned from outside, accompanied by his secretary and a bodyguard.
He was talking on the phone while waiting for the elevator. Three people approached from the side, but Song Luosheng didn't pay attention. However, his secretary noticed.
At this moment, the elevator arrived, and six people entered. Song Luosheng was still on the phone when his secretary pulled his arm to remind him.
Song Luosheng turned his head to look at his secretary, who gestured for him to look to the side.
Upon looking, Song Luosheng saw Chi Yu and his entourage.
Song Luosheng's face darkened. "What are you doing here? I remember you don't live here!"
Chi Yu replied, "I started living here today."
Song Luosheng narrowed his eyes. "What's your motive?"
Chi Yu said, "What motive could I have? I'm just living here!" Song Luosheng didn't believe it. His mind spun, and he noticed that the button for the thirty-fifth floor was lit up, while the others were not. They also lived on the thirtieth floor.
Suddenly, Song Luosheng grabbed Chi Yu's tie, his gaze icy. "Why are you on the thirty-fifth floor too? What do you want with my sister?"
Thinking back to when Chi Yu held his sister and ran, anger surged within Song Luosheng. Although it was a matter of survival, he couldn't help but feel that Chi Yu had malicious intentions!
Could it be that he wanted to use his sister to threaten him into giving up the project?
