Situ Lin was Situ Yan's father and was one of the more influential figures in the police force in City D. Before Qin Fangang returned to City D, the two of them did not meet much. Situ Lin would probably visit Situ Yan, who was studying there, every month. Usually, they would only meet under such circumstances.
However, Qin Fangang had always respected Situ Lin, and Situ Lin also thought highly of this junior of his.
"Tomorrow, I'll contact him personally."
Ji Yang was about to leave when Qin Fangang suddenly called out to him. "Is Mu Chenchu at work?"
Ji Yang was stunned for a moment before he reacted. "I think she's on leave. She said that she'll only come over tomorrow."
"Contact her. If she's already in City D today, tell her that there's a dinner party tonight and she can't miss it."
The moment Ji Yang heard this, he laughed secretly in his heart. He thought that Boss Qin was very loyal to Young Master Su. After he had tasted the sweetness, he did not forget to let his good friend have a taste of it.
He was very tactful. "Yes, Boss Qin. I'll contact Miss Mu."
Xin Yu had been sitting in the office for almost half an hour, but the blush on her face had not disappeared. The words she had said at the back staircase kept echoing in her ears. So many times in her heart, but every time it happened, it was enough to make her blush and her heart beat faster.
— — I like you, Qin Fangang. I like you.
— — Yes, I heard it. I like your way of comforting me … and I want to tell you — — Baby, I like you too.
…
I like you, I like you too …
…
These were the words that kept repeating in her mind. The man's deep voice and the woman's shy tone overlapped with each other in her ears and kept attacking her.
Xin Yu could not help but reach out to hold her head. Crazy, crazy, she must be crazy. She just … how could she have the courage to say those words to him just now?
She thought about how she had struggled to escape from his "evil clutches" in the end, but he had pressed her against the wall again. The man's hard body was tightly pressed against her soft little body. His thin lips were pressed against hers, back and forth. His deep voice had some obvious lust. "After work, don't be in a hurry to leave. Wait for me to come and find you, okay?"
Actually, he did not say anything overboard, but for some reason, Xin Yu's heart kept trembling. She could clearly hear the hints in his words. Then, her heart beat wildly, her breathing hot and rapid. She could not calm herself down.
She bit her lip and stomped her feet. She pushed Qin Fangang away and fled in a hurry.
Even she did not know why she wanted to escape. This emotion could probably be called … shyness?
So, she also had moments of shyness. It was the kind of shyness that only women in love would have. So, this was what it felt like. Was this how it felt?
…
Xinyu held her chin and raised her neck slightly. She subconsciously rubbed her cheeks. The blush on her cheeks made her look even more charming. There was a hint of shyness and cuteness that belonged to a little girl.
After work, should she wait for him?
Wait for him, for what? Go back to the Lu residence together? Or like an ordinary couple, eat, watch a movie, or …
There was a buzzing sound at the back of her head. It was as if she had been hit by something hard.
The words "ordinary couple" woke her up instantly.
Yes, ordinary couple. What about them? Were they considered a couple? They … weren't even an ordinary couple. She had never experienced what it was like to be in a relationship, but she knew that when a man and a woman were in a relationship, they would hold hands, go shopping, eat together, watch movies together, and do the simplest and most romantic things together. But would they do that?
Qin Fangang and her would never do such things.
Love?
With their relationship, how could it be considered love?
If they went back to the Lu residence together, their relationship would instantly revert to its original state. If they went out together, they would not have the right to hold hands, eat together, and watch movies together like an ordinary couple …
Those were the simplest things for ordinary people, but for them, they were so difficult. It was harder than ascending to heaven …
Xin Yu slowly put down the hand that was supporting her chin. The blush on her face gradually disappeared. All that was left was disappointment at the corners of her eyes.
"I like you" was too easy. It was too simple. But only she knew the feelings and expectations behind it. It was so easy to say it. All she had to do was move her lips. But what about after?
…
She felt like she had fallen from heaven to earth. But fortunately, she had not completely fallen into hell yet.
Xin Yu took a deep breath and shook her head. She told herself that she could not think about these things now. Since she had already decided to be brave for him, and she had already taken the first step bravely, what was the point of thinking about these things now?
Negative emotions would only bring more negative energy to herself.
No matter how difficult the road ahead was, she thought that she should at least walk it with no regrets.
Now, the most important thing was to divorce Lu Yihan. She had originally planned to tell Lu Shiyun about their fifth wedding anniversary, including the fact that she was moving out of the Lu residence. In the end, his words completely disrupted her plans. Xin Yu thought that she had to go back to the Lu residence tonight to tell Lu Shiyun about these two things.
She glanced at her wristwatch. There was not much time left before she got off work, so she might as well pack up and get ready to leave Qin Fangang's office as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he saw her, he would definitely grab hold of her and refuse to let her leave first.
She felt that she had to go back and clear things up with Lu Shiyun first. Delaying this kind of thing for a day would not do anyone any good.
Just as she entered the elevator, her phone rang. Xin Yu took it out and saw that it was Qin Fangang's number. Her expression flickered with a hint of strange emotion, but the corners of her eyes and the tips of her brows were filled with sweetness.
There was no one else in the elevator. She only hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
"Where did you go? Why aren't you in the office? "
Qin Fangang's deep voice traveled over the phone to her ears. It was deep and powerful.
Xin Yu instinctively pressed her phone to her ear as if she wanted to hear his breathing more clearly. Her voice was as soft as water. "… I have something to do, so I got off work early."
"Didn't I ask you to wait for me to get off work together? What's the matter? "
Xin Yu bit her lip. "… I really have something important to tell you. It's not convenient for me to tell you."
"…"
Just as the elevator reached the first floor, the double doors opened slowly. Xin Yu said, "Erm, I'll talk to you later." She hung up without waiting for Qin Fangang to say anything else.
She put her phone away and walked out of the elevator. She saw Lu Yihan walking over from the opposite side.
Xin Yu's breath caught. Her first reaction was to turn around and leave. However, Lu Yihan had already seen her and quickened his steps toward her.
Xin Yu's hand happened to touch the handle of the elastic door at the back of the staircase. Lu Yihan grabbed her other wrist and pulled her toward him forcefully. He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Why are you leaving as soon as you see me? I've been looking for you for a long time. Where did you go? "
Xin Yu struggled to break free from his grip. "… Why are you looking for me? Lu Yihan, let go of me first. Everyone in the company is watching … "
They were on the first floor of the company and there were many people coming and going. Qin Fangang had heard about the incident in the elevator. Now, Lu Yihan was pulling and tugging at her … Xin Yu didn't like this from the bottom of her heart.
What she didn't realize was that Lu Yihan was actually her husband, but she was avoiding her husband's touch. Her heart was only thinking about Qin Fangang's feelings.
Lu Yihan's expression was gloomy. He didn't let go of her and pulled her into the elevator again. He pressed the button for the B2 floor, which was the company's parking lot. "If you're afraid that someone in the company will see you, I'll take you somewhere else. Let's talk things out today."
Xin Yu was speechless.
Talk things out? So be it. Xin Yu frowned as she thought about it. Some things had to be talked about sooner or later. Since Lu Yihan was so determined to talk things out with her, she couldn't just keep resisting. After all, marriage was between them. If she could convince him now, then Lu Shiyun would have one less obstacle.
Actually, Xin Yu still hoped that Lu Yihan would take the initiative to bring up the divorce with Lu Shiyun. Even if they couldn't talk about the divorce now, she didn't want to do it on their fifth wedding anniversary.
"Okay, let's talk, but let go of me first. I'll go with you," Xin Yu said calmly.
Lu Yihan glanced at her. After a moment, he let go of her hand.
When they reached the parking lot, he found his car and let Xin Yu sit in the front passenger seat. He personally drove and left the company.
On the way, the two of them didn't speak. Halfway through, Lu Yihan's phone rang. Xin Yu saw him take out his phone, glance at it, and quickly turn it off. She didn't see the caller ID. Anyway, she wasn't interested in knowing.
But after Lu Yihan turned it off, his phone rang again. Xin Yu glanced at him. Lu Yihan's side profile was a little tense. This time, he didn't turn it off immediately. He let the phone keep ringing. When it finally stopped, the other party called again.
Lu Yihan furrowed his brows. His face was full of impatience, but he still picked up the phone.
Actually, the car was only so big. Xin Yu sat next to him. She couldn't hear what the person on the other end was saying, but she could tell that it was a woman's voice. Moreover, it was a female voice that Xin Yu was familiar with.
Xin Yu turned her face to look out of the car window. She didn't even have to guess. It must be Lan Ruoran calling.
