Chapter 271: Not Allowed To Be Friends

“Yeah.” Changqing nodded in agreement.

Lin Yiqin really treated her sister well. Even his family members treated Changxin well.

“No matter what happens between you and Song Chuyi, find someone you like who you think can bring you happiness,” Yan Lei said. “The same goes for this Lin Yueli. Worse come to worst, I’ll spend the latter half of my life with your Auntie Shen back in Yangzhou.”

“If you were to go back to Yangzhou for your retirement, I would miss you a lot,” Changqing said as she hugged his arm.

Yan Lei smiled as he stroked her head.

At the company’s building entrance, Changqing opened the car door and Yan Lei said, “What do you intend to do with Song Chuyi?”

Changqing pressed her supple lips together and said softly after a while, “We… might not be suitable for each other…”

Yan Lei watched her tenderly and didn’t go on.

In the afternoon, at the broadcasting station’s office.

Changqing switched her computer on and was preparing to go through the program schedule when Zheng Yan walked over.

She just wanted another gossiping session. “This Zhang Zixin is so hardworking when it comes to showing up at our broadcasting station; she’s already declined a lot of job offers for Teacher Zuo. I wonder when they’re getting married.”

“I’m not sure either.” Changqing shook her head. “Is Zhang Zixin intending to retire from the industry?”

“She said that she temporarily won’t be shooting any dramas in the coming two years.” Zheng Yan looked all gossipy. “However, why do I feel that Teacher Zuo doesn’t really like her? I only see her wrapping herself around Teacher Zuo’s arm in the broadcasting station all the time while Teacher Zuo always looks indifferent.”

“Why would they get together if he didn’t like her? I think he must like her,” Changqing said indifferently.

The two chatted for about 20 minutes before Zheng Yan left.

Changqing refocused on the program schedule. The station was celebrating its anniversary soon and Boss Feng had appointed her and Zuo Qian to be the emcees for the gala show.

The door to the office opened suddenly.

She didn’t lift her head up, thinking it was either Wen Tong or Zheng Yan coming back.

It wasn’t until a shadow loomed over her that she sensed something was amiss.

She lifted her head and Song Chuyi’s cold face was staring down at her. His thin lips were pressed tightly together and his gaze was overflowing with fury.

Changqing shuddered with fright and stared back at him. “How did you get in here?”

“I walked in.” Song Chuyi glanced at her monitor and his gaze dimmed. “Who is he?”

“Who?” Changqing was stunned.

“The man beside you this morning. Why haven’t I seen him before? How do you know each other? How long have you known each other?” Song Chuyi threw a string of questions at her, looking at her with an icy cold gaze as though he was interrogating a criminal.

Changqing blinked and returned to her senses. She was angry. “We’re going to be strangers soon. Why should I tell you all this?”

“We’re not divorced yet and that means we’re not strangers. Besides, I don’t agree to a divorce. Everything you said doesn’t count.” Song Chuyi spat out the words at her coldly. She wanted him to get divorced from her so that he could give them the two of them his blessings? Dream on.

“You’re unreasonable. I already made things clear to you that day.” Changqing stood up furiously. “Get out; this is my office.”

“Even if I walked into your boss’s office today, he wouldn’t have dared to say that to me.” Instead of leaving, Song Chuyi walked around the table, pulled her chair out and sat on it.

Changqing was rendered speechless by his unreasonable ways. Who on earth was the owner of this office? “What do you want? All I want is a peaceful and quiet life. Is that wrong? I can’t afford to offend the family; can’t I even afford to hide from you?”

“Clearly tell me about the relationship between you and that man first.” Song Chuyi pressed his thin lips together expressionlessly.

“We’re just friends,” Changqing said with annoyance. “He just offered us a helping hand kindly after seeing how the Yan family was pushed to the edge by the Song family. Is that enough?”

“Why haven’t I heard you mention this man before? Also, why does it seem like he was unaware that you were already married? Did you tell him that you’re not married? Did you take him to be a spare tire so that you could progress things with him after divorcing me?” Song Chuyi questioned furiously.

He wasn’t blind. He didn’t even need to see it for himself; all it took was slight probing and he could clearly tell what those man’s intentions were.

“Yes, yes, you’re right. Happy?” Changqing was enraged. She felt full of indignance. This man was sick, simply sick in the mind. What a waste of talent if he didn’t become a writer.

“No.” Song Chuyi slammed the table and stood up. The cup on the table clattered. “As long as I don’t agree to the divorce, you’ll still be my wife. You better stay away from that man; you’re not allowed to be friends.”

Changqing was about to cry from exasperation. She really didn’t want to get involved with him anymore. “Yes, if you don’t agree to the divorce, your brother and dad will make trouble with our family and the Yan Corporation again and maybe even my sis. This time, I’ve finally helped my family tide over this crisis. Are you Songs done? Must you force our family to desperation and force us out of Northern City before you’ll stop?”

Her eyes reddened as she went on. “Is it just so difficult to ask you to let me off?”

Song Chuyi’s heart stopped as he thought she was about to cry.

There were several times where he was also disheartened and wanted to give up. After all, her words did make sense.

Only, when he saw another man appearing beside her…

When he thought about how her character would definitely attract many men to woo her once they got a divorce…

When he had enough of Fu Yu swinging around her and now another one had appeared…

When he thought about her getting remarried and doing the things they did together with that man…

When he thought about her saying things like: “Hubby, I want a kiss, I want a hug” to that man…

he felt as though a bottle of vinegar was spilt inside.

However, he was really stumped by her when she made it sound so depressing.

“I brought CEO Sun over specifically with the intention of helping the Yan Corporation.” Song Chuyi held her shoulders gently and repressed his voice slightly. “You don’t need that man; I can help you too.”

“I think it’d be better if you stayed away from my family.” Changqing turned her face away. “We’ve already found a better business partner. Besides… I don’t want to have anything more to do with you. If your brother found out you resolved the Yan Corporation’s problem, he would definitely behave like a lunatic who escaped from a mental hospital and chase our family around, chopping us to pieces.”

The corners of Song Chuyi’s lips twitched helplessly. Would Song Chulang become speechless if he heard these words?

However, it was true. Song Chulang seemed to have become rather mad. It’d be easy to hide from an open attack but harder to defend against a stab in the back.

Thinking of this, he softened his tone and said, “I’ve already resigned from the hospital.”

Changqing was slightly stunned. She did hear him mention his resignation previously but she didn’t think he would really do that. Didn’t he really like medicine? “Then Switzerland…”

“What would I do if you really got together with that man if I went to Switzerland?” Song Chuyi said coldly.

Changqing pouted speechlessly.

I can’t stand him. Is that even the point? How’s it possible for me to get together with Lin Yueli? I’ve never thought about that at all, okay?

This man is really too petty.

Besides, we’re about to get a divorce. Why should he care who I want to get with?

Song Chuyi watched her as her delicate lips pouted and he felt his heart skipping a beat.

In the past, he couldn’t stand it the most when she behaved like this. It was simply too adorable and made him want to kiss her badly.

He held it in. However, he still couldn’t help placing his finger on her little mouth and rubbing it a little.

“What’re you doing? It’s filthy.” Changqing struck his hand away and stared at him with her huge, red eyes. “Go away.”

“Promise me you won’t get together with him and I’ll go away.” Song Chuyi’s lips curled up coldly.

Changqing pushed him away with all her might but he didn’t move an inch. Instead, he said, “My brother was bitten by Robben a few days ago but he also kicked Robben and he’s still injured now.”

Changqing’s arm froze. She looked up. “Are you serious? Are Robben’s injuries serious?”

Song Chuyi nodded. “In any case, he hasn’t been able to eat well for a few days. Lolita’s also very depressed seeing Robben like that.”

Changqing’s eyes reddened. “Robben is too much. Why did he bite your brother? A pervert isn’t someone you can bite casually. Oh no, your brother is such a psychopath and he will definitely take his revenge. Will he secretly kill Robben when you’re not around?”

“You don’t have to worry about that. I’m currently staying at Li Shaobin’s villa with Robben and Lolita.” Song Chuyi sighed. “Without you in the apartment, Robben and I don’t even want to stay there. It brings up sad memories.”

Now that he had become so melancholic so suddenly, Changqing’s face blushed uncomfortably and she was about to go crazy. I finally decided to put it all down. Can this man not tease me anymore?

Also, I’m too useless. How can my little heart beat so wildly because of him again?

No, this time, I must put my foot down.

“Enough said; Robben is your dog. Whatever happens to him has nothing to do with me.” Changqing continued to push him away. “I need to work. Get out.”

Song Chuyi took two steps back and lowered his head as he watched her quietly. “Stay far away from that man in the future. Promise me that. If you don’t, I won’t leave.”

This person was simply unreasonable.

Changqing stomped her foot. “He’s my friend and you’re just someone who’s about to become my ex-husband. You have no right to interfere with my personal life. If you’re not leaving, I’ll leave.”

She turned around and was about to leave when a powerful force suddenly pulled and turned her over from behind.

The world spun and suddenly, Changqing’s nose slammed into a familiar chest. Even the clothes he was wearing exuded his unique scent.

Her little heart stopped for a while. She tried to struggle free but Song Chuyi hugged her tightly. He said with a frown, “As long as I don’t sign, you’ll still be my wife under the law. You’re marked by me. Even if you want to live apart and file a petition, that will take two years. If you have any ambiguous relationships with any man when you’re married, that’s considered having an affair. If I were to find out that you still meet up with him privately, I won’t sign the divorce papers for the rest of my life.”

Changqing stared at him furiously. “You’re unreasonable.”

“Think through it carefully. I’ll go first.” Song Chuyi caressed her hair and let her go. He turned around, opened the door to her office and walked out. After taking a few steps out, he saw Zuo Qian coming towards him with a file tucked under his arm.
