"Song Ge." He called out to her. Seeing her turn back and get out of the car, he walked straight up to her. Looking down at her who only reached his chest, he said, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"… Maybe." Song Ge thought for a while. She believed the best blessing she could give him was, "I hope we won't meet again in the future."
After all, if they met again, he might die once more.
Qu Cheng didn't know what she was thinking. He only felt that she might hate him. His fingers tightened, and after giving her a deep look with pursed lips, he turned around and left. The loud roar of the car seemed to be the anger in his belly.
"…" Song Ge wondered if it was just an illusion, but she felt that the car was full of fury. "What a strange guy!"
She snorted from her nose and turned around to go upstairs.
"Song Ge!" When Song's mother saw her come back, she flew into a rage. There was no sign of worry as Song Ge had expected, nor any gentle concern. "You did it on purpose to piss me off, didn't you? I told you that your Aunt Chen was going to bring that young man over last night, and you deliberately didn't come back, right?"
Oh no! She had actually forgotten about this. No wonder she always felt like she had forgotten something. Cold sweat broke out on Song Ge's forehead. "Mom, Mom, Mom, I was wrong. Something suddenly came up at the company last night, and I got so busy that I forgot. Look, I've been working overtime at the company all night, and I haven't even changed my clothes!"
Only then did Song's mother calm down a bit. Although she kept scolding her, her body was honest as she busily fetched food for Song Ge. "I made another appointment with your Aunt Chen last night. If you stand us up this time, I'll break your legs!"
Song Ge gave a silly smile. "Got it, Mom."
She shouldn't stand them up in the future. After all, the matter should have been resolved. Song Ge took a bite of the corn. It should be resolved, right?
Two days later, after work, Song Ge dressed up beautifully as her mother had instructed and went to the blind date. This time, neither Song's mother nor Aunt Chen went. They said they wanted to give the young people some private space.
"What privacy on the first meeting? It'll be more embarrassing without anyone around." Song Ge tidied her clothes. Just as she was about to go in, someone pushed the door open and came out.
The familiar fragrance made Song Ge instinctively look up. Qu Cheng lowered his head when he saw the familiar figure. Their eyes met in the air, and Qu Cheng was the first to notice something was wrong.
"You've dressed up specially today."
Song Ge grinned and didn't hide it. "I'm here for a blind date today. What if the other person doesn't take a fancy to me if I don't dress up?" She didn't expect to run into him here. The world was really small!
Qu Cheng narrowed his eyes, and a nameless anger welled up in his heart. "A blind date? Oh, are you that eager to get married?"
Song Ge gave him a strange look and didn't miss the anger in his eyes. Of course, Song Ge didn't know why he was so angry. She thought this guy was really strange.
"My mom set it up for me. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going in."
With that, Song Ge was about to go in. Afraid that they might quarrel later, she lifted her foot to enter. Qu Cheng pursed his lips and grabbed her wrist. "You're not allowed to go."
"What?"
Song Ge turned around to look at Qu Cheng, only to see him suddenly collapse to the ground. She let out a low cry and instinctively reached out to catch him, but suddenly everything went black in front of her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself lying in her own bedroom.
"Damn it! Is it reset again?!"
The last time she saw Qu Cheng was at the door of that high - class restaurant for the blind date. Did he encounter danger again?
She got up to wash up, took a bite of the yogurt and bread, and rushed to the living room just as Song's mother was coming over.
"Mom, I'll go to the restaurant for the blind date. Don't worry."
After saying that, she rushed out like a gust of wind.
"… This child is really impatient."
Song's mother smiled helplessly and then seemed to freeze. When did she tell this child about the blind date? Although it was indeed going to happen, but how did she know it would be at the restaurant… That Aunt Chen was really, without even waiting for me to discuss it properly, she even set the location with the child. No, I still have to ask more and check.
On her way to Qu's Group, Song Ge's mind was racing as she recalled all the previous situations.
Did Qu Cheng encounter danger again? This man was really prone to disasters.
She waited downstairs, knocked out the little assistant with the anti - wolf spray, gave him a face - holding kiss, and kissed him.
After going through this series of procedures, Song Ge even admired her own proficiency. She was taken back to the villa, and everything was just the same as before.
After successfully getting out of the Qu family, Song Ge decided to go to the blind - date restaurant in advance to investigate the situation.
She carefully dressed up and soon arrived at the place.
She had thought about it repeatedly before. From the situation that day, it seemed that Qu Cheng had been poisoned. Here, since the big boss of Qu's Group was entertaining guests, it shouldn't be difficult to find out.
"Hello. May I help you?" The receptionist at the star - rated restaurant looked at Song Ge with a beaming smile.
"I'm… Mr. Qu's fiancée. I've reserved a private room here and am waiting for him. Could you please show me the way?"
"Ah, okay." The other person seemed to appraise Song Ge's carefully - dressed makeup. It was unclear whether she secretly affirmed it in her heart or was a bit skeptical.
The receptionist led Song Ge to the door of an exquisite private room. The sign on it read "Crossing Thousands of Mountains".
"This is the private room reserved by Mr. Qu. If you need anything, you can directly press the bell on the table. There will always be someone at the door on standby for service."
Song Ge seemed to think of something and motioned mysteriously. "I'm here to give him a surprise this time. If other guests come with him later, don't tell them I'm here."
The other person nodded understandingly, with an envious look on her face, as if to say that the rich were really romantic.
Leaving the waiter behind, Song Ge entered the private room. It was decorated in an antique style. The private room for her blind date happened to be on the same floor, named "The Long Road".
The furnishings in the room were simple yet exuded an elegant luxury. Song Ge looked around and saw a four - fold screen.
Just as she hid behind it, she heard the door creak softly, and someone seemed to come in.
Through the gap in the screen, she could only see a man in a waiter's uniform looking cautiously in the direction of the door. He took out a small box of tea from his pocket, exchanged it with a box on the table, put it in his pocket, and then slipped out silently.
Sure enough, it was much more difficult to poison the food in the kitchen than to tamper with these small items, after all, there were so many people around.
Song Ge was studying the small box in her hand, trying to figure out how the poison was put in and what it was, when she heard a sound of footsteps at the door.
Then someone opened the door, and two burly figures walked in.
A handsome man, and beside him was Qu Cheng, as cold as ever.
Song Ge forced herself not to be immersed in the charm of the handsome men. She heard the two exchange a few polite words, and then a waiter came in to make the tea.
Seeing Qu Cheng about to pick up the teacup and bring it to his lips, Song Ge suddenly rushed out from behind the screen.
