    “Let’s have lunch together. I know you don’t have any scenes in the afternoon.” Fu Yu turned to walk out. Seeing that she was still standing there, not moving after taking a few steps, he frowned. “Changqing, can you let me tell you about the things between Guan Ying and your Song Chuyi?”


    Changqing’s face became pale and she could only brave herself to walk towards Fu Yu’s car.


    After getting in the car, she sat in the backseat with Fu Yu.


    Changqing looked sideways at Fu Yu secretly to see his expression and could only describe it as iprehensible.


    This was the first time she felt that the distance between Fu Yu and her was so far apart.


    Maybe it started from the moment they met each other again at “Sound of Snow,” but the feeling of being childhood sweethearts had changed.


    He didn’t ask her where she wanted to go for lunch and seemed prepared. The driver drove straight towards the destination.


    The mood was heavy in the car. Changqing recalled she didn’t converse much with Song Chuchu in the morning but it was never like this... awkward and stifling.


    “Between us... is there nothing we can talk about anymore?” Fu Yu’s clear, dark eyes suddenly looked at her. He appeared to look a little sentimental.


    “No...” Changqing shook her head, not knowing what to do. “I only...”


    <i>Only what? </i>She seemed uncertain herself.


    Fu Yu waited for a long while but didn’t seem to hear what he wanted and was slightly disappointed.


    The ce where they were going to eat was a ten-minute drive away.


    Fu Yu brought her into the suite with familiarity and ease and after they took their seats, piping hot dishes started to be served.


    The service staff took adle and wanted to scoop some green bean porridge for them. Fu Yu stood up and took thedle. “Let me do it, you can leave.”


    “Please enjoy.” The service staff closed the door behind him.


    Fu Yu scooped a bowl of green bean porridge for Changqing and said, “The weather’s hot. Drink this to reduce your internal heat.”


    Changqing nodded and was just feeling thirsty. She began scooping up the porridge with her spoon straight away. The green bean porridge was cool and the taste was fresh and rich.


    “It’s good, right?” Fu Yu watched her gluttonous look and gave a rareugh. “When I came here for the first time, I thought you would definitely like it too when I tasted it.”


    Changqing lowered her lids. She had no idea how to face him and could only concentrate on eating the green bean porridge.


    Fu Yu wasn’t in a rush to eat. Instead, he lit a cigarette and took a puff, watching her with concentration.


    Changqing finished a bowl and had to lift her head up. Facing him, she felt uneasy once again. “Brother Fu Yu,st time...”


    “Changqing, get divorced with Song Chuyi. I’ll help your Dad’spany.” The corners of Fu Yu’s lips lifted into a gentle curve; within his amiable tone came the decisiveness of a leader. “Also, I’m willing to invest 500 million into thepany without any conditions.”


    Changqing was stupefied.


    She was shocked by the figure of 500 million.


    Fu Yu’s manly eyebrows raised slightly and he continued in a low and gentle voice. He said, “I heard about it—your marriage with Song Chuyi is a business marriage. Previously, the Yan Corporation was involved in a few major legal cases and the flow of funding was also cut. The Yan Corporation was in huge debt and that was why you had no choice but to get married to Song Chuyi.”


    When Longxin told him the details of his investigation that morning, Fu Yu was so regretful that his intestines almost turned green. If he wasn’t busy with work when he saw Changqing at “Sound of Snow” and had investigated more about her or dropped by the Yan Family for a visit, Song Chuyi never would’ve gotten involved. He could’ve even married her without any effort. Perhaps if he worked a little harder, she could even be having his child now.


    And not with Song Chuyi.


    Whenever he thought about that, he was filled with hatred.


    The woman he loved the most had actually been tainted by Song Chuyi.


    He despised Song Chuyi previously but he never expected Song Chuyi to be the son of Song Huaisheng.


    Changqing also finally understood what he meantpletely. She felt that this was too much. Only one day had passed between yesterday and today, but he was able to investigate everything clearly.


    She silently sighed in her heart.


    Actually, when the Yan Family was pushed into a tight corner, she did think of approaching him for help but it was just a thought. At that time, she knew he was with Guan Ying and she couldn’t bring down her pride to see him.


    She was afraid he would reject or even despise her.


    However, his words now were meaningless to her.


    Changqing ced the white, ceramic bowl down and said seriously with her pretty little face, “Brother Fu Yu, marriage and divorce aren’t that simple. Yes, it might be a business marriage between me and Song Chuyi but a marriage is a marriage and it’s very sacred. I do have regrets seeing how we turned out today, but I can’t be wilful and act rashly just because of my regrets. Song Chuyi’s dad and grandma like me very much and I like them very much too. Don’t say such things again.”


    Fu Yu looked at her clear eyes and had aplicated look. “Yes, marriage is indeed something sacred. Therefore, we should get married for love. I like you a lot, and my mom likes you very much too. If we get married, it would be very beautiful. You don’t have to be worried about offending the Song Family. With me around, nothing will be a problem. The Song Family only helped you resolve the Yan Corporation’s crisis temporarily, but I can help the Yan Family expand and develop a new solution.”


    Changqing bit her lip with frustration. These words weren’t the slightest bit appealing to her. “Brother Fu Yu, even my dad wouldn’t agree with what you said. If my dad was one to ce importance on his interests, we wouldn’t be merely where we are now.”


    Fu Yu flicked away some cigarette ash and his deep, dark eyes slowly filled with anguish. “I admit that I was worried and anxious. Changqing, I only want you back by my side.”


    “Back by your side to be the wife of a CEO?” Changqing shook her head. “My dad also said I wasn’t cut out for that. Marrying Song Chuyi is actually... not that bad.”


    Although he always liked to bully her.


    Always liked to tease her.


    But these only added a hint of annoyance to the liking she had for him.


    Fu Yu was slightly shocked and he suddenly panicked. “Changqing, don’t tell me you’ve fallen for him?”


    Heughed. “He’s Guan Ying’s ex-boyfriend and you wouldn’t know for sure if he married you to use you as revenge towards Guan Ying.”


    “Impossible. When we got married, he had no idea I was Guan Ying’s friend.” Changqing looked straight. “Brother Fu Yu, don’t think of people so poorly.”


    “You’re the one who thinks of people simply,” Fu Yuughed coldly. “In the business field, no one is simple. Especially people from the Song Family. You think they’re very kind, but if they’re really that kind, would the Song Family have what they have today? Changqing, I’ll put it bluntly—although the Yan Family isn’t bad, you’re still quite a distance from the Song Family. However, why would Song Chuyi decide to marry you immediately after the matchmaking? Could he not have been matchmade with other women? Any rich youngdy would want to marry a fine man like him, even if it was their loss, but he had to choose you.”


    Changqing was astounded. He seemed to have caught onto something.


    Previously, she thought that it was either Song Chuyi was incapable in that aspect or Guan Ying’s cheating made him lose faith in love, but after living together, she didn’t seem to see any trauma and he was normal in every aspect.


    But she still didn’t give in and said to Fu Yu, “He just didn’t want to waste his time on dating.”


    Fu Yu said slowly, “If the Song Family’s capabilities are put out there, how many would really want to date him?”


    Changqing was silent. She felt unable to refute and even started to suspect if Song Chuyi really married her with the intentions of taking revenge on Guan Ying.


    Fu Yu continued mercilessly, “Once Guan Ying finds out you’re married to Song Chuyi, your friendship will be shattered and Song Chuyi will also make Guan Ying feel ufortable. What would be a better way to get revenge? A man is very scary once he wants revenge after being made a cuckold.”


    Changqing shuddered. Her head hurt. “Stop talking. Why’s it so tiring to eat with you? It’s like Sherlock Holmes breaking a case.”


    “Changqing, I just don’t want you to be cheated by him.” Fu Yu understood her character and if he said too much at the moment, she might not even continue with the meal. He stopped and didn’t overdo it.


    After the meal, Fu Yu sent her back to the broadcasting station.


    During the afternoon meeting at the station, Changqing didn’t have much energy, spacing out time and time again.


    After work, Changqing returned to Lakeview Residence. Song Chuyi had yet to return and Auntie Wang was cooking in the kitchen.


    Changqing sat on the couch and watched TV for a while. Suddenly, she nced towards Song Chuyi’s room door. It seemed she had never really been in there before.


    She had no idea if there would be any clues as to why Song Chuyi married her.


    If it was as Fu Yu said, there could be pictures of Guan Ying hidden around or things like that.


    She had an idea in her heart and immediately snuck in while Auntie Wang wasn’t taking notice. She flipped around the bedside table, then the study desk and wardrobe, but it seemed she didn’t find anything.


    Robben, on the other hand, was following around her curiously as though he was especially happy to see her looking around, and he was even wagging his tail hard.


    Changqing almost went to switch hisputer on when the sound of the door closing suddenly came from outside.


    She got a shock and quickly followed Robben out of his bedroom.


    Song Chuyi, who was changing his shoes, saw and raised his eyebrows. “What were you doing in my room?”


    Changqing blinked and lied. “I wanted to find a pen. I wanted to write something but I had no pen.”


    Song Chuyi reached into his pocket and took a fountain pen out, throwing it to her.


    Changqing didn’t expect him to have a pen with him wherever he went and didn’t react in time. The fountain pennded on her thighs andnded “smack” on the floor.


    Song Chuyi’s face darkened as he felt the pinch. “This fountain pen of mine costs more than 100 thousand. If you break it, pay for it.”


    Changqing quickly picked the fountain pen up like a treasure and inspected it carefully. Thank heavens it was alright. However, a pen fountain pen that cost 100 thousand—that was too expensive.


    She studied the brand of the fountain pen closely. It was a top-rated foreign brand. She clicked her tongue. “You’re so rich; even your fountain pen is so expensive.”


    “My brother gave it to me.” Song Chuyi looked sideways at her. “Didn’t you have something to write?”


    “Mm, yes.” Changqing went back to her room dejectedly.


    There was actually nothing to write. She turned two rounds in her room and came out again. Song Chuyi had returned to his room to shower. The sound of water flowing came from inside.


    More than 10 minutester, Auntie Wang served some dishes on to the dining table and left the ce.


    Changqing poured some dog food for Robben and Song Chuyi walked out while drying his hair. The smell of shower gel assailed her nose. He gave off a strong sense of cleanliness and freshness.
