He guessed that Qi Chengyue probably didn't want to sit with Huang Ziyue. He could more or less guess why Qi Chengyue suddenly wanted him to take her home. She was probably afraid that he would be taken advantage of in front of Huang Ziyue.
He couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. The front passenger seat definitely couldn't be given to Huang Ziyue, so it could only be Qi Chengyue.
Huang Ziyue seemed to have gotten used to it and was about to get in when Qi Chengyue suddenly pushed her aside and watched as Qi Chengyue got into the front passenger seat.
Huang Ziyue furrowed her brows. She was a rich young lady, but she was fighting for a seat like she was on a public bus. How could she be so classless?
Qi Chengyue didn't care about that and immediately closed the door after she got in.
Huang Ziyue looked up reluctantly, but she was stunned to see the helpless but tolerant smile on Cheng Dongge's face.
Cheng Dongge turned to look at her and put away his smile. "You're not getting in?"
Huang Ziyue was stunned. She wanted to wait for Cheng Dongge to open the door, but he had already gone around to the other side and sat in.
Only then did she open the door and get in.
Song Yu looked at the scene in front of him in shock. "Chengyue, she —"
"Cheng Dongge is pretty good," Qi Chengzhi said indifferently.
Song Yu was speechless.
…
…
In the car, Qi Chengyue looked at the plush toys hanging on the roof. They were all palm-sized and decorated the interior of the car warmly.
Following Qi Chengyue's gaze, Huang Ziyue said faintly from behind, "I didn't expect you to still have these toys."
Cheng Dongge glanced at them indifferently and said, "I didn't notice their existence, so I forgot to take them down."
When Qi Chengyue heard that, she immediately raised her hand and pulled all the toys down, throwing them into Huang Ziyue's arms. "Since you're here, take them all. I can't reach the ones hanging in the back, so please do it yourself."
Huang Ziyue gritted her teeth and didn't move. She called out, "Dongge …"
Cheng Dongge glanced at Qi Chengyue and said, "Take the ones hanging on the rearview mirror too."
After saying that, he asked Huang Ziyue, "What is it?"
"Nothing." Huang Ziyue lowered her head with a stiff expression and glanced at Qi Chengyue from time to time.
In the past, that seat had always been hers.
Qi Chengyue happily took down the pendants tied to the rearview mirror. Then, she followed Cheng Dongge's instructions and took down the ornaments that belonged to Huang Ziyue.
For a moment, the car was much emptier.
Only then did Qi Chengyue realize that Huang Ziyue had really seeped into every corner of Cheng Dongge's life over the past three years.
They arrived at Cheng Dongge's residence. This house was bought by him. It had three bedrooms and two living rooms. It was more than 140 square meters. It was enough for two people to live in.
When Qi Chengyue walked in, he could still see the little things that Huang Ziyue had lived with him for three years. For example, the style of some small ornaments was more feminine. The pillow on the sofa, the paper towel box, and the cloth bag with cartoon prints were all obviously made by Huang Ziyue.
Huang Ziyue was about to head to the bedroom when Cheng Dongge's mellow voice rang out. "Where are you going?"
"Let's go to the bedroom. My clothes and some underwear are in the bedroom, aren't they?" It wasn't clear if it was intentional or not, but Huang Ziyue glanced at Qi Chengyue when she said this.
Qi Chengyue felt that her gaze seemed to be protesting. It was as if she was saying, "I used to sleep in the same bedroom with this man for three years and experienced three years of extreme intimacy with him.
I've seen all of his underwear. "
Unexpectedly, Cheng Dongge said, "I thought you might come to pack up at any time, so I've already packed everything for you. It's in the guest room."
Huang Ziyue froze and froze on the spot. Suddenly, she felt a little embarrassed. Her hands tightly clenched into fists. She hadn't expected Cheng Dongge to be so impatient. It was as if the breakup was nothing to him and he wasn't affected at all.
After all, they had been together for three years and were already talking about marriage. Shouldn't he be very sad after the breakup?
But now, she felt like a beggar that he couldn't wait to kick out of the house.
Could it be that after the breakup, he had been packing things for her when he had nothing to do at home, waiting to completely kick her out of his life?
Only now did Huang Ziyue notice that Cheng Dongge wasn't as dispirited as she thought he would be. There wasn't a trace of dispiritedness on his face, and he was still as energetic as ever. Moreover, after becoming unfamiliar with her, his face became even more unreadable. She finally experienced the kind of pressure that outsiders felt when facing him. It was something that she hadn't felt when they were dating before.
He said these words in front of Qi Chengyue, which made Huang Ziyue feel extremely embarrassed.
"This way." Cheng Dongge said expressionlessly. He pointed to the guest room and walked in front. Huang Ziyue gritted her teeth and followed behind him. However, she discovered that Qi Chengyue didn't follow. Instead, she sat down in the living room and looked around.
When she opened the door to the guest room, she saw that her things had already been packed in cardboard boxes. Two large boxes and one small box were neatly stacked against the wall.
"There's something to drink in the fridge. Go and see what you like to drink." She suddenly heard Cheng Dongge's voice behind her. She thought that he still cared about her after all, so she quickly turned around. However, she discovered that he was sitting in the living room with his head tilted, talking to Qi Chengyue.
Huang Ziyue felt extremely uncomfortable. Even if she dumped him, she hoped that he would still think about her in his heart, so that she would always have an irreplaceable place in his heart.
Qi Chengyue got up and went to the kitchen. She only poured two glasses of water and handed one to Cheng Dongge. The two of them didn't speak, but they seemed to have a tacit understanding, as if they were an old married couple who had been together for a long time.
Huang Ziyue received the call. "Okay."
She moved the phone away slightly and asked Cheng Dongge, "Um … Someone's coming to pick me up. Can you let him come up? I can't move it alone. "
"Of course." Cheng Dongge nodded.
Huang Ziyue said a few more words into the phone and gave him the room number.
Not long after she hung up, the doorbell rang.
Cheng Dongge went to open the door. Qi Chengyue heard the voice at the door. The other party even said, "Mr. Cheng."
It was very polite.
Qi Chengyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. If this was Huang Ziyue's new boyfriend, it didn't seem like his status was high!
The other party followed behind Cheng Dongge. He was a rather young man dressed in formal attire, but his clothes didn't look expensive at all.
The other party's face was too young, and he didn't have the innate arrogance of the upper-class circle. Qi Chengyue couldn't help but find it strange. Then she heard the other party call out in surprise, "Miss Qi!"
"You know me?" Qi Chengyue asked curiously.
The other party smiled politely and said, "I'm Young Master Gao's driver, Xiao Zhang."
"Young Master Gao?" Qi Chengyue frowned slightly, trying to remember which Young Master Gao. She thought of someone she knew who also had the surname Gao and blinked. "Gao Jingqiu?"
"Yes," Xiao Zhang said with a nod.
"So Miss Huang is Gao Jingqiu's girlfriend. Your Young Master Gao has changed his tastes again!" Qi Chengyue smiled faintly. "Is this the Cinderella who likes the pretty daughter of a humble family and wants to live a prince's life?"
Gao Jingqiu was famous for being a playboy. He had a decent background and a mediocre family background. He couldn't compare to Li Zhuoan. He changed girlfriends every few days, from actresses to young models, and he broke up with each of them after a month or two.
Xiao Zhang looked awkwardly at Huang Ziyue, who had an ugly expression on her face. He only smiled and didn't retort.
Actually, when Gao Jingqiu was with his friends in private, he also said that he was just fooling around with Huang Ziyue, but Huang Ziyue was very serious.
"Why didn't Gao Jingqiu come up?" Qi Chengyue asked again.
"Young Master Gao has something to do tonight and can't come," Xiao Zhang answered a little awkwardly.
"Oh, Gao Jingqiu is quite broad-minded. Isn't he afraid that something will happen when his girlfriend comes to her ex-fiancé's house to take something?" Qi Chengyue said, but her gaze was mocking Huang Ziyue.
Xiao Zhang lowered his head and didn't know how to answer.
Qi Chengyue sneered. "What can he have to do? Isn't he just going to the clubhouse with his friends? Every time he goes to that kind of place, those people don't have any good intentions. "
Huang Ziyue clenched her teeth, and her face turned red. Qi Chengyue was deliberately embarrassing her in front of Cheng Dongge.
She sneaked a glance at Cheng Dongge, but he didn't even notice her. Instead, he was looking at Qi Chengyue and raising his eyebrows.
Seeing that Cheng Dongge had seen through her intentions, Qi Chengyue pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
The way the two of them exchanged glances made it seem like Qi Chengyue was afraid of Cheng Dongge. She was actually worried about his reaction.
With just one look, Qi Chengyue stopped talking.
Although it looked like Cheng Dongge was helping her, Huang Ziyue felt that she couldn't get between the two of them anymore.
"Miss Huang, where are the things?" Xiao Zhang pulled Huang Ziyue back from her thoughts.
"Inside." Huang Ziyue pointed to the guest room behind her.
Xiao Zhang went in and only took one box. Huang Ziyue could carry a small box, so Cheng Dongge went to carry the remaining box.
When Xiao Zhang saw this, he immediately said in a panic, "Mr. Cheng, how can I do this? I can do it myself."
"You can't carry it. You'll have to run back up in a bit. It's a waste of time," Cheng Dongge said indifferently. Without waiting for Xiao Zhang to refuse again, he had already carried the box.
But in Huang Ziyue's ears, it sounded like he couldn't wait for her to leave.
The three of them carried the box and took the elevator downstairs. Qi Chengyue followed them.
After placing the suitcase in the trunk, Huang Ziyue turned to look at Cheng Dongge. Even if she had dumped Cheng Dongge for Gao Jingqiu's sake in order to live a better life, he was, after all, the most beautiful years of her life.
She thought back to when she chased after him in college. She thought back to the moment he finally accepted her as his girlfriend. She was overwhelmed with happiness.
Cheng Dongge had always been the man she dreamed of, but unfortunately, he couldn't give her enough.
And from today onwards, when she got in that car, she would completely leave Cheng Dongge's life.
"Dongge, I hope you can find your own happiness in the future," Huang Ziyue said softly.
Cheng Dongge nodded and turned around. Xiao Zhang had already opened the car door for her.
Huang Ziyue got in, and Qi Chengyue heard Cheng Dongge murmur, "I hope you find happiness this time."
When she looked up again, Cheng Dongge had already changed his expression. He said to Qi Chengyue, "Let's go."
"Go where?" Qi Chengyue was stunned.
Cheng Dongge raised his eyebrows. "Didn't you want me to take you home?"
Qi Chengyue waved her hand. "That's an excuse. Just think of it as me being a busybody. I'm just afraid she'll come over and take advantage of you. After all, she's your ex-fiancée. You're a good person, and I don't want to see you suffer."
She suddenly paused, remembering the consequences of her first time helping him out of kindness. She looked at him nervously. "You're not blaming me for being a busybody again, are you?"
"…" Cheng Dongge raised his eyebrows.
She took two steps back and waved her hand guiltily. "Forget it, I don't need you to take me. You can go back. I'm leaving."
Qi Chengyue turned around. Cheng Dongge's house was in the city, and it was quite prosperous, so it was easy to take a taxi.
However, she had just taken a step when her arm was suddenly grabbed from behind, and she was pulled back.
Qi Chengyue was pulled around by him. She stumbled a little in her high heels, and her body suddenly fell forward into his embrace. Her forehead accidentally hit the button of his suit.
"Aiya!" Qi Chengyue cried out in pain. Her arms were grabbed by him, and he helped her stand up. However, her forehead was red from the impact of his button, and it even left a mark.
Cheng Dongge hurriedly let go of one of her arms and reached out to rub her red forehead. "I didn't say I was blaming you. Why were you in such a hurry to run?"
He lowered his head and frowned. He was a little focused on rubbing her forehead, forgetting about the distance between them.
Qi Chengyue was in a lot of pain, but the moment his fingers touched her skin, she only felt a numb and itchy feeling.
An electric current ran from her forehead to her scalp and ears. She felt her scalp and ears go numb, and even her cheeks started to go numb.
Her breathing was slightly erratic, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at him. Suddenly, she felt his breath on her forehead. She raised her head in surprise, and the first thing she saw was his stern lips. Although they were lightly closed, the lines were still stern. She looked up and met his deep gaze. She saw that his thick black brows were slightly furrowed, and she didn't know what he was angry about.
Sensing her gaze, his gaze also moved down from her forehead, and in an instant, it was stuck to her eyes. It was as if there was a suction force that made it impossible for anyone to look away.
His eyes were dark and deep, and unusually firm. They were calm, just like him, and made people feel at ease.
Qi Chengyue's lips slightly parted in shock, and her face turned red.
Cheng Dongge's gaze seemed to be stuck to her face. After a while, he reacted and awkwardly looked away. His fair face was also stained with a faint pink.
He quickly retracted his hand, and his fingertips still carried the delicate touch of her face.
Glancing at his watch, he coughed dryly and said, "It's already so late. Let's go eat first, then I'll take you home."
As he spoke, his hand naturally slid down from her arm to hold her hand, and he led her to the Touareg.
…
…
Xiao Zhang looked at Huang Ziyue through the rearview mirror. She was sitting in the back, looking out the window with a melancholy profile.
"I didn't expect Miss Huang's ex-boyfriend to be Mr. Cheng," Xiao Zhang said. Little Zhang said that when he opened the door and saw Cheng Dongge standing inside, he was really shocked.
Huang Ziyue turned her head. She had felt that something was strange at Cheng Dongge's house, so she asked, "You seem to respect him a lot."
Xiao Zhang smiled and said, "Don't think that Mr. Cheng is just Young Master Cheng's assistant, but Young Master Cheng relies on him a lot. Usually, even Young Master Gao has to be polite when he sees him, not daring to slight him. Anyone under the eight major families doesn't dare to offend him. I heard that Young Master Cheng intends to make him one of Qi Lin's higher-ups, but I don't know the specifics. "
Huang Ziyue's eyes widened, and her hands gripped the strap of her bag tightly. "Even so, he's still below him, and the company isn't his. If he wants to resign one day, he'll be fired."
"Heh heh, actually, no one will easily fire a talent like Mr. Cheng. Even if Qi Lin doesn't work for him, he'll still be a general manager or above at any other company. " Xiao Zhang looked at Huang Ziyue and said, "Miss Huang, I think you're a good person, so I'll tell you what I think. Young Master Gao may have a family behind him, a company, and he seems to have nothing to worry about, but no matter what he does, he still has to listen to his family's orders, even when he gets married. He doesn't dare to say no to whoever his family wants him to marry. Otherwise, he'll lose his family's support and become an ordinary person. Young Master Gao was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he won't give up on things that belong to him. Moreover, once he becomes an ordinary person, which ambitious girl will be willing to marry him? "
"On the other hand, although Mr. Cheng comes from an ordinary family, with his status in Qi Lin's family, even those families are willing to marry their daughters to him. Even if his girlfriend is an ordinary person, at least there won't be any bias in his family. " Xiao Zhang turned the steering wheel, turned a corner, and continued, "Actually, in the past, Young Master Gao also wanted to introduce his sister to Mr. Cheng, but Mr. Cheng said that he already had a girlfriend. I think that at that time, Mr. Cheng was talking about you. "
"But now that he's single again, I'm afraid those families will be eager to introduce their daughters to him again," Xiao Zhang said.
"So … so he's so amazing …" Huang Ziyue murmured. Cheng Dongge rarely told her about the company.
So far, all she knew was that he was very busy, and Qi Chengzhi left everything to him. All these years, he had been Qi Chengzhi's assistant. Although his salary had been rising, she still couldn't see his future and felt that he would work hard as an assistant.
Moreover, his salary was fixed, not comparable to Gao Jingqiu's. The entire company was his.
But now, it was too late for her to regret it.
She also knew that Gao Jingqiu was a playboy. In the beginning, they were quite good together, so she made up her mind to break up with Cheng Dongge.
But not long after the breakup, Gao Jingqiu often began to go out without her, unlike before when he was always with her.
She was now living with Gao Jingqiu, and sometimes when Gao Jingqiu returned, he would smell of perfume. But it was too late for her to regret it now. With Cheng Dongge's personality, it was impossible for him to get back together with her. The only thing she could do now was to hold on to Gao Jingqiu tightly.
Huang Ziyue lowered her head, but when she thought of Cheng Dongge, her eyes turned red.
