He gave Li Shaobin a call. “Don’t you know a lot of hackers? Is there a way to get me off of Yan Changqing’s Weibo blacklist? I don’t like the looks of it.”
“Old Song, forget it if you need to go for your morning shift. Can you not disturb me from sleeping in, please? Also, you should really take some medicine soon,” Li Shaobin said angrily. “How did Yan Changqing offend you?”
“She went to Mauritius for a vacation behind my back,” Song Chuyi said through gritted teeth.
“Sure, let me give the Indian president a call later and tell him to send your wife back,” Li Shaobin groaned.
“…” Song Chuyi: “She went to the Republic of Mauritius—what does that have to do with India?”
“Isn’t Mauritius an Indian island?”
“That’s Sri Lanka and that’s not an Indian Island. It’s an island in the Indian Ocean. It doesn’t belong to India—it’s a country.”
“What, so there are countries like Sri Lanka and Mauritius in this world?”
Song Chuyi hung up straight away. He felt a deep sense of exhaustion. Why must he discuss geography early in the morning with a man who only a scored single digit in geography class?
He also thought he should take some medicine.
When he stopped at a traffic intersection on the way to the hospital, a dirty stray dog passed by his car. He thought for a while and took a picture of it, sending it to Changqing with the message: If you don’t call by evening, I’ll make Lolita become like this stray dog. It’s up to you.
In the afternoon, Changqing woke up in the sea-view suite by the beach. After traveling for more than 10 hours and changing flights, she had finally reached her destination. Even after sleeping for seven to eight hours, she still felt exhausted.
She stretched lazily and walked one circle around the spacious suite. Guan Ying was bathing while Ruan Yang was making a call in the garden. It was probably another manager from another company calling her.
Ruan Yang might work in the entertainment industry, but she had quite a mind for business and would often buy stocks in the F&B industry or fashion industry.
Changqing felt that compared to Ruan Yang, she was too useless.
She switched her phone on and more than 10 missed calls from Song Chuyi came in, including two messages. She looked at the black and dirty stray dog in the picture and felt terrible. She simply couldn’t imagine the cute Lolita becoming like that. It simply made her heart ache. This Song Chuyi had gone berserk.
She dialed Song Chuyi’s number angrily.
At the hospital, when Song Chuyi saw the call, he picked up while feeling soothed and gloomy simultaneously. Changqing’s enraged voice came through. “Song Chuyi, if you dare to throw Lolita away, I’ll divorce you immediately, right now. I don’t want you anymore.”
“What do you mean?” Song Chuyi was so exasperated that his stomach twitched with anger. “Am I worse than a dog in your heart?”
“If I throw you away, you’ll find another woman very quickly anyway, but if you throw Lolita away, she will become a stray dog who’s despised by everyone. Do you know how pitiful these stray dogs are now? People beat and run over dogs for no reason.” Changqing’s heart turned sour as she went on.
“Am I so fickle-minded?” Song Chuyi took in a deep breath. He had to keep calm and control himself. “Why did you go to Mauritius without telling me?”
“You didn’t go to the Maldives with me; don’t tell me I still have to keep waiting for you until you’re free to go with me?” Changqing made a dig at him. “At least when I’m out with Ruan Yang and the others, they wouldn’t leave me behind after receiving a call or because of a certain woman.”
“I said such things wouldn’t happen again.” Song Chuyi felt a deep sense of helplessness. Why must she keep harping on that incident? “I’ve already made it clear to Yunyang; we’ve both put it behind us.”
“Hehe. That means you hadn’t put it down before, right?” Changqing felt increasingly uncomfortable.
Song Chuyi facepalmed. She only knows how to look for loopholes at a time like this. “In any case, you can enjoy yourself over there, but you cannot exceed a six-day stay. Also, you’re not allowed to wear all the bikinis you bought before; you can only wear them when you’re with me. When you go to the beach to play, you’re not allowed to wear revealing clothes and you’re even more not allowed to pick up men. Also… watch your safety, do you understand? Don’t run around alone. There are a lot of foreigners in places like that. There are a lot of people in Africa. They aren’t as friendly as you think.”
Changqing was uncomfortable listening to him at the start, but she felt better towards the end.
At least he’s concerned about my safety. Otherwise, I would definitely ignore him.
She didn’t say anything. Song Chuyi continued asking, “Do you have enough money? If you don’t, I’ll transfer some to you.”
“I don’t care for your money,” she said.
Song Chuyi simply ignored that line and said, “You must pick up when I call you and reply to all my messages. If you don’t pick up my calls, I’ll send Lolita away.”
“Don’t keep using the dog to threaten me.” Changqing felt uncomfortable.
She hung up unhappily. Ruan Yang walked over. “Contacted Song Chuyi?”
“He threatened me saying that he’s going to throw Lolita away.” Changqing pouted.
“Silly. He definitely wouldn’t do that. It’s just to scare you.” Ruan Yang laughed softly.
However, Changqing still wasn’t at ease. Hence, she called Auntie Zhang to get her to send Robben and Lolita to the house of her brother-in-law, Lin Yiqin, for a while.
After instructing Auntie Zhang, Changqing received a message. A million was transferred into her account.
“Wow, Song Chuyi is really being generous in order to please you this time.” Ruan Yang laughed softly.
Changqing pressed her lips together. She had mixed feelings upon seeing that one million.
What does that mean? Does he think that he can move me with money? Even though I’m currently a little tempted.
In the evening, Song Chuyi returned to the Yan Household and felt something was amiss all of a sudden. He walked around the courtyard. The dogs were missing.
“Where’s Robben and Lolita?” He asked Auntie Zhang.
Auntie Zhang blinked. “Qing Bao said she’s afraid you’ll throw them away, so she got her brother-in-law to take care of them in the meantime.”
Song Chuyi stared wide-eyed. “They’re my dogs.”
Yan Lei said angrily, “You also know that they’re your dogs? Why did you say that you’ll throw them away for no reason? Are there not enough stray dogs and cats on the streets now?”
Song Chuyi “…”
He was so infuriated that he wanted to vomit blood. He couldn’t even see the Robben that he raised painstakingly.
Back upstairs, he gave Changqing a call. This time, the call couldn’t get through again.
Changqing had blacklisted him again.
There was no other meaning. She was mainly afraid that this man would ruin her traveling spirits.
What was important for her now was to enjoy her vacation quietly, and at the same time, sort out her recent messy feelings.
The four rarely woke up early in the morning to rush to attraction sites while they were in Mauritius. They would sleep until they woke up naturally before going to attractions nearby to take a look. At night, they would visit quieter and serene bars to sit or have some supper as they drooled at handsome men from all over the world.
Changqing rarely posted but Jiang Duoyao would often secretly take pictures of a group of handsome men and upload it to her feed.
The power of social media was huge. A certain director screen-captured her feed and showed it to Zhan Mingwei, while Zhan Mingwei showed Song Chuyi, whose face was about to turn into ice.
Song Chuyi, who was dragged out by his friend to play basketball, saw the picture and his brows were so tightly knitted they could pinch a fly to death.
Take a look at what Jiang Duoyao said: Days with my sisters are filled with spacing out and taking photos. There are always some handsome lads coming over to hit on us. Our days are so nourishing.
Also on her feed was a picture of the four of them—all in bikinis, of course. Changqing was wearing a flirtatious red bikini and the snow-white fullness at her chest was swaying.
Song Chuyi rubbed his glabella. He remembered that bikini. The fabric on it was pathetic, especially the bottoms. Rather than calling it fabric, one could say that it was just a few pieces of lace covering the three most important parts.
When he saw that at home, he even warned her not to wear that swimsuit to the beach. She could only wear it in the private swimming pool with him at most.
She agreed and even hugged him, saying that she would only wear it for him to see.
Now…
He stood up.
He smashed the basketball forcefully on the ground with anger.
“Er… Old Song, calm down, don’t be so agitated,” Zhan Mingwei said. “She said they’re only looking at handsome lads and getting hit on, not that they’ve found handsome lads.”
Song Chuyi’s face was cold as he pressed his lips together, not making a sound.
For some reason, at that moment, the flames rose to his head.
Perhaps it was because he had been alone at home every day lately without even Robben around. He didn’t feel like this when she went to work in Hong Kong previously.
“I’ve wanted to ask you a question for a while now—do you like her?” Zhan Mingwei felt around his pocket and pulled out a box of cigarettes, lighting a stick for himself leisurely.
Song Chuyi looked at him and didn’t speak.
“You were also like this when you chased Yunyang in the past.” Zhan Mingwei thought for a while and passed him a stick. “Do you want a puff?”
Song Chuyi hesitated for two seconds but still accepted it. Zhan Mingwei lighted it for him. He finally spoke. “She’s exactly a little vixen.”
He had to admit that he didn’t have much feelings for her at the start and only felt that since they were already married, he had to be responsible for this woman.
However, the more time they spent together, when he saw her silly side and when she cried miserably when she almost lost the dog, he felt angry but also felt like he couldn’t flare up at her.
She was too delicate but in a cute way, not the kind that men would detest.
He remembered the most obvious instance his heart skipped a beat for the first time. It was after they had sex and when he was about to leave, she reached her arms out to him and said, “I want a hug.”
He lowered his head and inhaled deeply. “Mingwei, remember the Liao Zhai (1. Famous Chinese collection of supernatural stories) that we used to watch when we were young? Wasn’t there always a scholar who was bewitched by vixens? I feel like right now, I’m just like him.
“Oh, you mean she used sorcery on you.” Zhan Mingwei breathed out smoke and found it funny. “Then what did Yunyang use on you in the past?”
“I can’t say for sure. I was just a teenager then and had certain feelings easily. After breaking up with Yunyang, honestly, I’ve never had any thoughts towards any other woman, especially since she isn’t the least bit similar to Yunyang.” Song Chuyi’s mind drifted off for a while before answering his question.
“True.” Zhan Mingwei nodded. “Yunyang was adopted by your family since young and she’s seemed cheerful from that age but we all understand very clearly that she matured very early. She’s never dared to let loose or act coquettishly in your house and was always very respectful to your father and grandma. However, Yan Changqing is different. Her family is perfect and isn’t so messy. Her life has been very healthy. Even if the person she carried a torch for doesn’t like her, she can still continue to live optimistically. She’s just like a little princess without any ambitious goals. Her only goal is probably to get someone she likes and live the rest of her life in bliss.”
