He was annoyed that she kept sending him text messages. What if Song Yu saw it and misunderstood?
"Chengzhi." Just then, a handsome man walked over and bumped fists with Qi Chengzhi with a smile. "You brat, you haven't come back to visit me since you came back."
Qi Chengzhi only smiled faintly. "Are you planning to develop in the country now that you're back?"
"Yes." Mu Huaisheng nodded. "My father is planning to expand his business to Asia, so this is naturally his first stop."
Qi Chengzhi nodded. "Let me introduce you."
He introduced Yan Beicheng and Han Zhuoli to Mu Huaisheng. Mu Sisi directly stuffed the cup into Mu Huaisheng's hand and immediately hugged Qi Chengzhi's arm with her free hands. She looked up and said coquettishly, "Brother Chengzhi, I went to America when I was in primary school. It's my first time back in so many years. I'm completely unfamiliar with this place. You have to show me around and familiarize me with it!"
"Sisi, Chengzhi is so busy with work and has his own things to do. Don't pester him." Mu Huaisheng calmly stopped her.
"What's wrong with that? When I was in America, I also followed the two of you to play." Mu Sisi wrinkled her nose at Mu Huaisheng and then said to Qi Chengzhi, "Brother Chengzhi, do you still ski?"
…
…
Song Yu was called over by Old Madam Han and introduced to the old ladies of each family.
Old Madam Han had brought Song Yu to Old Madam Han's place before, but she had only seen Old Madam Han, Old Madam Wei, and Old Madam Yan. She had never seen the others, not to mention Xia Wenna's generation.
So Old Madam Han called Xia Wenna over and brought Song Yu around, introducing him to the elders one by one.
Old Madam Han was in a great mood to show off. Old Madam Han raised an eyebrow and pointed in Qi Chengzhi's direction. "Hey, why is your grandson so close to a woman!"
Hearing that, Old Madam Han quickly turned around and saw a young girl hugging Qi Chengzhi's arm tightly with both hands, sticking close to him.
Even though Old Madam Han saw that the young girl was not wearing revealing clothes, at least her breasts were covered and not too much was exposed, she still stuck close to Qi Chengzhi's arm.
The old lady's eyes suddenly became sharp, and she scolded grumpily, "Young people nowadays are really thick-skinned. You are so shameless to stick to a man like that!"
Actually, Old Madam wanted to say, "Why don't you sell yourself if you stick to a man so hard?"
However, thinking that they were in a public place and there were so many people, the old lady quickly made a turn and maintained her image.
After scolding, the old lady immediately turned to look at Song Yu, afraid that she would misunderstand and get angry with Qi Chengzhi.
"Song girl, let's go. Come with me and chase that little vixen away. When we get home, I'll beat that stinking brat up!" The old lady said boldly.
Song Yu: "…"
"Grandma, Chengzhi is not stupid. On such an occasion, with our whole family here and me here, how could he do something wrong to me in front of me? It's probably someone he has a good relationship with. It won't be easy for him to escape, "Song Yu said.
Although she believed in Qi Chengzhi's feelings for her, it didn't stop her from being jealous.
Although he said that to the old lady, it was also to comfort the old lady, lest the old lady still had to worry about the feelings of the younger generation at her age.
However, she still felt a little stifled in her heart.
No matter which woman it was, she would not be happy to see her husband so close to another woman.
However, just as Song Yu finished speaking, she saw Qi Chengzhi get rid of Mu Sisi by taking a tray of champagne from a waiter who passed by.
Qi Chengzhi held the champagne and did not drink it, so Mu Sisi could not pester him anymore.
Seeing Song Yu and the old lady come over, the corner of Qi Chengzhi's eye twitched. He stuffed the champagne into Yan Beicheng's hand and reached out to Song Yu.
Song Yu glanced at Qi Chengzhi's outstretched hand indifferently. She still had a gentle smile on her face, but she did not put her hand on it. She ignored him and walked with the old lady to the group of people. She stood next to Qi Chengzhi but did not touch him.
The old lady cursed in her heart. Song Yu said that she was fine, but she was still a little angry with Qi Chengzhi.
The old lady also understood. No woman would feel comfortable in such a situation. It was already good that she did not fall out with Qi Chengzhi on the spot.
Without batting an eyelid, Qi Chengzhi wrapped his long arm around Song Yu's waist and pulled her close to him. His warm palms pressed tightly against her waist as if he was afraid that she would run away.
Song Yu did not intend to be at odds with him here. It was obvious that this lady in front of her was coveting Qi Chengzhi. If she were to be at odds here, wouldn't she give others something to use against her?
She looked up at him with a mocking smile.
In the past, it was Qi Chengzhi who looked at her like this. Now, it was Song Yu who looked at him like this. Qi Chengzhi immediately pinched her waist.
Ever since Song Yu arrived, he did not look at anyone else. He lowered his head and asked her, "Are you tired after standing for so long?"
Even if she did not want to embarrass him, Song Yu did not want to talk to him right now.
Just then, the old lady said angrily, "Brat, your grandma is so old. I stood for the same time as your wife. Why don't you ask me if I'm tired?"
Just then, the old lady turned to Mu Sisi and said, "My grandson spoils his wife too much. Hehehe!"
Song Yu could also see that the old lady was openly angry, but secretly hinted to Mu Sisi how good their relationship was.
She could not help but laugh. She felt that the old lady was really cute. As long as she was with the old lady, she did not have to worry about being bullied.
However, Mu Sisi froze. For a moment, her expression was very ugly.
Then, she straightened her back and showed a cute smile. "You must be Brother Chengzhi's grandma. Hello, grandma. I'm Mu Sisi, and this is my brother, Mu Huaisheng."
The old lady smiled and said, "Hello." Mu Sisi then looked at Qi Chengzhi. "Brother Chengzhi, this is?"
"Let me introduce." Qi Chengzhi hugged Song Yu even tighter. "This is my wife, Song Yu. We just got our marriage certificate a few days ago. The wedding will be held next month. Since you are back in the country, come and attend."
Mu Sisi felt all the blood in her body suddenly recede. Her hands and feet were cold. She quickly and secretly grabbed Mu Huaisheng's arm to prevent herself from swaying and falling.
"Your wife?" Mu Sisi's lips moved. She suddenly remembered something. "Then the photo of the marriage certificate that you uploaded on WeChat the other day was your marriage certificate?"
She twitched her lips. "I thought it was your friend's."
She had always thought that Qi Chengzhi would never get married. Back when he was studying in America, he was cold to everyone. Not only in school, but also in real life, some of the girls he met liked him very much.
Especially those who grew up in America, their temperaments were more straightforward. They would express their love to him without hesitation. However, Qi Chengzhi did not even look at them.
At that time, the only person of the opposite sex who could stand by his side was her.
However, at that time, she was only in junior high. Because of Mu Huaisheng, she met Qi Chengzhi.
Even so, the only girl who could be close to Qi Chengzhi, no matter what the reason was, was her.
At that time, Qi Chengzhi could not be said to be very close to her. He had always maintained an invisible distance. No matter how close she got, it seemed like she could never catch up to him. There was always a warning line between the two of them.
However, she still followed him as his friend's sister, pestering him and seizing any opportunity to touch him.
It was not that she did not think that he might meet other women during these years back in China, but she still had to go to school.
During this period, Mu Huaisheng had always kept in touch with Qi Chengzhi. Therefore, she always asked Mu Huaisheng about Qi Chengzhi's situation. She always knew that Qi Chengzhi had never had a girlfriend all these years, not even a woman who played around with him.
She only thought that his standards were too high and no woman could enter his eyes.
She was quite confident about this. She was young, beautiful, and her father was the founder of a famous fashion brand. From cosmetics to luxury goods, although she was Chinese, she was in the upper class of America. When she was 19, she also attended the famous International Socialite Ball in New York as a coming-of-age ceremony. At that time, she was the only Chinese socialite who was qualified to attend the ball.
In terms of status and background, she was much higher than many of the people present!
Coincidentally, her family was interested in introducing the brand to Asia and was now discussing cooperation with Wu Feng. She also majored in fashion design and was prepared to work as a designer in the family business after graduation.
She would graduate in a little more than a month, so when she heard that Mu Huaisheng was returning to China, she immediately followed.
In the past few years, Qi Chengzhi had never had WeChat, and she had also been in contact with her elementary school classmates before she went abroad. They also added each other on WeChat. Suddenly, at the end of last year, she found that there was suddenly an additional person in her WeChat contact list. When she saw that it was Qi Chengzhi, she immediately sent him a friend request.
She looked for Qi Chengzhi through WeChat, but he never replied to her messages. Even when she sent him messages, they were like stones thrown into the sea.
Until recently, when she saw the photo of the marriage certificate he posted on his WeChat Moments, her heart suddenly jumped. The moment she saw it, it seemed as if her heart had stopped beating.
She also suspected that after not seeing him for so many years, could it be that Qi Chengzhi was already married?
Therefore, she sent a tentative message to ask if it was from his friend.
As expected, he still did not reply.
She then asked Mu Huaisheng. Mu Huaisheng only said that he had not heard that Qi Chengzhi was getting married and that if he did, he would definitely tell him.
With Mu Huaisheng and Qi Chengzhi's friendship, when they were in university, they were inseparable. If Qi Chengzhi was getting married, Mu Huaisheng would definitely know.
Therefore, she no longer had any doubts.
She did not expect to hear Qi Chengzhi personally say it on such an occasion.
"How is that possible? My brother's WeChat Moments are just a tool for him to flaunt his love. He can't even flaunt his love, so why would he care about whether others are married or not?" A female voice suddenly sounded.
Even though Mu Sisi had never seen the other party, from the tone of her voice, she decided that she did not like her.
Song Yu looked over and saw Qi Chengyue holding Cheng Dongge's arm as they walked over.
She could not help but look back and forth between the two of them with interest. Cheng Dongge sensed Song Yu's gaze and just rubbed his nose. Qi Chengyue only naturally let go of Cheng Dongge when she walked over.
The two of them had actually been standing behind them for a while, so they had heard everything Mu Sisi said.
However, because everyone's attention had been drawn to Song Yu and Mu Sisi, they seemed to be very interested in the situation before them, so they did not notice her and Cheng Dongge.
The Old Madam felt that her granddaughter's words were too pleasing to the ears. She nodded repeatedly. "That's right, that's right."
Song Yu smiled and finally looked at Qi Chengzhi. Her large eyes still carried a warning of "I'll deal with you when we get back." She asked, "These two are —"
Qi Chengzhi glanced at her indifferently, as if to punish her for making eye contact with him. He pinched her waist again, but intentionally or not, he wanted her to lean on him, afraid that she would get tired from standing for too long.
"Mu Huaisheng is my university classmate and good friend. This is his younger sister, Mu Sisi." Qi Chengzhi introduced them in a calm voice.
"Haha, hello. When Brother Chengzhi was in university, I followed him and my older brother everywhere to play," Mu Sisi said with a smile.
Because of Yu Keyao, Song Yu felt uncomfortable all over whenever he heard the words "Brother Chengzhi."
"Brother Chengzhi, do you remember when I would go to the company to help out during my holidays? But you guys thought that I didn't know anything and always gave you trouble. In the end, you only let me do some photocopying and answering the phone." Mu Sisi stuck out her tongue and said proudly, "I'm very capable now. I'm no longer the little girl who didn't know anything. If that's the case, will your company hire me? "
"I heard from Huaisheng that you're going to be a designer at your family's company, so I won't fight for you. Also, our company doesn't have a suitable job for you, "Qi Chengzhi said calmly.
"If you hire me, I don't have to go to my family's company!" Mu Sisi immediately said, "Being a designer is just a hobby of mine. It's not like I can't do other jobs. Oh right, Brother Chengzhi, do you need an assistant? "
Qi Chengzhi did not speak and only glanced at Cheng Dongge.
Cheng Dongge immediately understood and stood up. He cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, I'm sorry, Miss Mu. I'm Young Master Chengzhi's assistant."
Mu Huaisheng had been watching from the side and did not interrupt. His attention was on Song Yu.
When he heard Song Yu's name, he couldn't describe his surprise.
He immediately thought of the company Qi Chengzhi had founded called "Feather" and wondered if it had anything to do with Song Yu.
Mu Huaisheng was indeed a very smart person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become friends with Qi Chengzhi and been able to keep up with his pace.
After this suspicion, he suddenly remembered that after "Feather" had enough power, Qi Chengzhi had spent a whole six years nibbling away at a company bit by bit. And the owner of that company seemed to be surnamed Song.
He remembered that many women had expressed interest in Qi Chengzhi, but Qi Chengzhi had never looked them in the eye. Even if they had boldly thrown themselves at him, Qi Chengzhi had mercilessly ridiculed them.
He had once asked Qi Chengzhi if he didn't get into a relationship. The four years of university would be so boring. There were so many people who liked him, but did he really not have a single one of them?
He still remembered that Qi Chengzhi had paused for a moment. His fair and slender fingers had lowered the book and his eyes had glanced out of the window through his glasses. The warm sunlight had shone on his body and covered the side of his face with a golden veil.
Qi Chengzhi had said indifferently, "There's a girl waiting for me in the country."
"Is she your girlfriend?" Mu Huaisheng had only asked a very reasonable question at the time.
Qi Chengzhi had turned to look at him. His expression was unreadable and very profound.
After a while, he said, "She's the woman I'm going to marry in the future."
Mu Huaisheng looked at Song Yu and was suddenly very sure that the person in front of him was the woman Qi Chengzhi had talked about.
He reached out to Song Yu. "Just call me Huaisheng like Chengzhi. Chengzhi is two months older than me, so it shouldn't be hard for me to call you sister-in-law."
Song Yu looked at the man with the warm smile in front of him. He and Qi Chengzhi were two different types.
Qi Chengzhi took off his glasses. His gaze was frighteningly sharp, and his entire aura was especially cold.
Mu Huaisheng, on the other hand, was the scholarly type. He naturally exuded a scholarly aura and his gaze was gentle, not giving off the feeling of being stared at. However, Song Yu knew that this Mu Huaisheng was not as good-tempered as he appeared to be. He was definitely not a person to be trifled with.
"Chengzhi and I are university classmates and also a partner in his company." Mu Huaisheng smiled.
Song Yu understood, but he still turned to ask Qi Chengzhi, "A partner in the company?"
"Yeah, don't you know? When Brother Chengzhi was studying in the United States, he founded a company with my brother. It's doing quite well and has a bit of a reputation in the industry. "Mu Sisi said proudly, as if she knew more about Qi Chengzhi than Song Yu.
Mu Huaisheng only smiled warmly and said, "Although we're partners, we're actually just helping each other. Back then, it was Chengzhi who proposed the idea, and I happened to have nothing to do. I was also very optimistic about Chengzhi's ability, so I invested some money in it. My investment was relatively small, and to be honest, the company belongs to Chengzhi. I just followed along and took advantage of it. Now that I think about it, the company's name is Feather. Don't tell me your name is Yu from Feather? "
Mu Sisi was stunned. She did not want to believe that Qi Chengzhi had actually founded this company for Song Yu.
This was the company that she had worked so hard for. She had wanted to make Qi Chengzhi look at her a little longer, just so that he would look at her more.
"Yeah." Song Yu was also slightly stunned, but he nodded and said.
Mu Huaisheng then turned his head and looked at Qi Chengzhi inquiringly.
Qi Chengzhi asked, "Since you want to bring in your family's brand, you need to find an office in B City, right? Are you sure?"
"We're still looking, so we'll be working in the hotel for now," Mu Huaisheng said. Since Qi Chengzhi changed the topic, he did not say anything else.
"Brother Chengzhi, we'll be staying here in Dynasty. Remember to come and find us!" Mu Sisi said. In front of Song Yu and everyone else, she directly reached out to grab Qi Chengzhi's hand and shook it coquettishly.
Qi Chengzhi immediately pulled his hand back and said lightly, "When you're free. Because I have to prepare for the wedding, I'll be a little busy."
Mu Sisi looked at her empty palm and bit her lip with a disappointed expression. Then, she forced a smile and said, "I really didn't expect you to get married so early!"
"It's not early. My grandson is already 35. If this is early, then when will it be late?" The old lady waved her hand. She really wanted to ask if it was just right for her to marry him.
"No, Grandma, I thought … I thought …" Mu Sisi glanced at Yan Beicheng and the others who were still standing and watching the show. "In the past, when we were in America, there were no other women by Brother Chengzhi's side except for me. When those women came to look for him, he did not even look at them. That's why I thought that Brother Chengzhi would not get married so early."
"Don't tell me you think that my big brother has been waiting for you all this time?" Qi Chengyue did not care about that. As an elder, the old lady could not be too strict with Mu Sisi because of her status.
However, she was of the same generation as Mu Sisi, so there was no need for her to be polite with her.
"When my big brother went to university, you were just a little kid. Of course, it was fine for you to follow my big brother. If you were as old as you are now, see if my big brother would let you follow him." Qi Chengyue said bluntly, "Besides, even if he let you follow him back then, it was only because of your big brother."
Qi Chengyue chuckled. "My big brother did wait for a girl to grow up so that he could marry her. Didn't he marry her now? He's right in front of you, not waiting for you. "
Old Lady Qi's heart was blooming with joy. This was the first time she admired her granddaughter's sharp tongue so much.
In the past, she always felt that Qi Chengyue's tongue was too sharp and too poisonous. But now, she felt that her granddaughter was really sharp and spoke beautifully!
However, on the surface, the old lady still tugged at Qi Chengyue and pulled her to her side. She said to Mu Huaisheng and Mu Sisi, "I'm sorry, my granddaughter is too straightforward. She says whatever she wants to say and doesn't mince her words at all. It's because she doesn't know how to lie that her words are hard to guess."
Everyone: "…"
Old Lady, you're the one who says the worst things.
Qi Chengyue almost burst out laughing. She immediately hugged the old lady's arm and said, "Grandma, how can you say that to your granddaughter!"
"Don't act like a spoiled child. If I don't talk to you, who knows what else you'll say! Huaisheng is your big brother's friend. You should at least give your big brother some face! "The old lady said. From the beginning to the end, she did not mention Mu Sisi at all.
Mu Huaisheng smiled slightly. "Grandma, it's my little sister's fault. She didn't think through her words."
"Hehehe, she's just a child. No one would be at ease." The old lady waved her hand. The way she looked at Mu Sisi was as if she was still an immature and insensible little girl.
Mu Sisi was really angry, but she did not dare to show it because of Qi Chengzhi. She suddenly looked remorseful and depressed. She went forward and imitated Qi Chengyue to hold the old lady's other arm. She shook the old lady's arm and said coquettishly, "Grandma, I'm sorry. I didn't mean any harm. I just said whatever I wanted to say. Sometimes, what I say doesn't mean anything else, but it's easy for people to misunderstand."
"Hehehe." The old lady laughed twice. She turned her face as if she had seen something. Suddenly, she said, "Aiyo, Old Han is calling me. I'll go over first!"
With that, the old lady pulled her arm out of Mu Sisi's and hurried over to Old Madam Han.
