Chapter 190: Ask Qi Zhenbai for Help
Chi Shuyan also parted ways with Qi Hao and the others. Because of this matter, Qi Hao, w.a.n.g Xuewen, and Jian Chongying forgot to ask about the spirit rice porridge. They only remembered when they got home, and could only drop it for the time being. They planned to find an opportunity in the few days to drop by, when Ninth Master Qi wasn’t around, to try the rice porridge. Thinking about it now, the taste was simply superb.
Jian Chongying was still alright, but Qi Hao and w.a.n.g Xuewen even specially went to the supermarket to buy a bag of particularly good and pure organic rice, and planned to try and cook it when they went back.
On her way back, Chi Shuyan specially made a trip to a real estate company to check the market. Firstly, property prices in the capital were expensive, but at least some were fixed. Secondly, she was going to study at Yanjing University for four years. She couldn’t really stay at Qi Zhenbai’s place forever, right?
He didn’t mind, but how could she not know how the world worked?
Even if they didn’t have an ordinary relations.h.i.+p, she didn’t want the Qi family to look down on her because of this.
Moreover, after the conflict at Lu Chengfu’s dormitory today, she didn’t plan on staying in a dormitory herself. No matter what, she had to buy a house first. In any case, she had money.
After taking a quick look at the market prices in the capital, Chi Shuyan returned to the apartment. She then thought about the couple today, as well as what Lu Chengfu said about the whitening pills. There were whitening pills everywhere, and Chi Shuyan didn’t know what kind the woman was eating. Should she find the woman for a look, or think of something else?
When she came into contact with that woman today, the latter felt so cold that she didn’t seem human. There was obviously something wrong, but what Chi Shuyan found strange was that although the woman’s face was pale and her body temperature was low, she was still human.
Chi Shuyan had the vague feeling that all this was related to the “whitening pills.” Exactly what were these custom-made “whitening pills” that the woman was eating?
Chi Shuyan racked her brain but couldn’t think of anything. After thinking it over, she could only ask Qi Zhenbai for help, so she simply dialed his number.
In a company meeting room, Qi Zhenbai was reprimanding someone with a stern face. The atmosphere in the meeting room was so cold that no one even dared to breathe loudly.
It wasn’t until Qi Zhenbai received a phone call from his woman that his originally severe and cold face softened. He spat out, “Meeting adjourned!” and then left the meeting room!
The eyes of the others in the meeting room almost popped out when they saw this scene.
Ninth Master Qi’s reputation as the King of h.e.l.l wasn’t empty words. Who on earth was so powerful that they could move their Ninth Master Qi so masterfully? Too powerful!
This small incident caused quite a stir in the Qi family. That was a story for later!
Chi Shuyan naturally didn’t know what the others at Qi Corporation were thinking. When Qi Zhenbai answered the phone, she asked politely, “Are you busy?”
Qi Zhenbai thought that his woman missed him, and the smile on his face grew a little wider. He curled his lip and said, “No rush, I’ll be back from work in the evening! Don’t miss me too much. Eat first and don’t wait for me!”
Chi Shuyan could tell that the man had misunderstood her, and felt somewhat helpless. Why did his imagination run wild?
But since he had already misunderstood, what else could she do? She could only go with the flow and agree casually, then get down to business. “By the way, there’s something I don’t know if I can trouble you with?”
“Say it!” Qi Zhenbai didn’t like his woman being polite with him. He never had much patience with people in the past, but now, who knew where this patience came from. He just felt that whatever his woman said to him, he wouldn’t be annoyed.
He had been in a very good mood these days now that his woman was living in his apartment. Even if she was still somewhat polite toward him, wouldn’t they become more familiar with each other after staying together for a while?
Chi Shuyan was afraid that he was busy with work, so she didn’t tell him about Lu Chengfu. She just asked him to help her investigate where someone called “Yang Xiaoxiao” had bought whitening pills from recently, and if possible, buy some for her!
Yang Xiaoxiao was Yang Mingwei’s girlfriend, and Chi Shuyan had gotten her name from Lu Chengfu.
Qi Zhenbai naturally agreed to such a small matter.
Chi Shuyan thought about how this man had gotten injured because of her last night, and she was now troubling him today. She couldn’t help but ask about his leg injury.
Qi Zhenbai didn’t take his leg injury seriously at all, but when he heard his woman ask him about it, his originally frosty face lit up. “I’m fine!”
But Chi Shuyan couldn’t ignore it. She thought for a while before she said, “Why don’t you give me a call after work, and I’ll take you to the hospital to take a look?”
Qi Zhenbai’s face was about to twist with his smile when he heard this. This was mainly because he had always been calm and indifferent, and rarely smiled. Now, his smile was too bright and his face was a little stiff. Chi Shuyan had barely finished speaking, when he immediately agreed without giving her the slightest chance to back out!
Qi Zhenbai suddenly thought of the sanitary pads he had bought that morning, and his face stiffened a bit. The tips of his ears went red and he was expressionless when he suddenly asked, “By the way, did Qi Hao give you that thing this morning?”
