When the evening banquet ended, Luo Wei still wanted to invite Chi Yu and Song Luokui to take a photo together, but Chi Yu declined, "Sorry, I can't show my face during this trip."
Luo Wei was very understanding, "Oh, no problem. Would it be possible for me to take a personal photo with you two using my phone? I absolutely won't share it with the media."
Chi Yu looked towards Song Luokui, and Song Luokui had no objection, "Sure."
Luo Wei: "Thank you very much." He then took out his phone and took a picture with the two of them. "Thank you both for coming tonight. Thanks, and I hope we can meet again the next time I visit Hua Country."
Chi Yu: "Of course."
After returning to the villa with the jewelry she bought, Song Luokui was a bit tired. After washing up, she sat on the bed. Shortly after, Chi Yu came over wearing his pajamas, holding the gems they had purchased that day.
He opened one of them, "Would you like to try wearing them tonight?"
Song Luokui looked at the necklace, earrings, bracelet, and other pieces, "Why don't... we try the crown? We can wear the other pieces another time."
Chi Yu picked up the crown, "Okay."
He carefully placed the crown on Song Luokui's head and handed her a mirror. His eyes were full of affection, "Beautiful."
Song Luokui looked at herself in the mirror, and she did look beautiful. When she turned her head, she saw Chi Yu sitting there, staring at her. She smiled at him, "What are you looking at?"
Chi Yu brushed the strands of hair that fell over her forehead, "Looking at how beautiful you are."
Song Luokui felt proud, "Of course." No one had ever told her that she wasn't beautiful since she was a child.
After admiring herself for a while, she took off the crown. Chi Yu took it from her, put it away, and sat down next to her.
Song Luokui remembered the matter she wanted to question him about, "I have some questions I want to ask you, and I hope you'll answer honestly."
Chi Yu sat upright in front of her, "Ask, and I'll answer anything that doesn't involve national or company secrets."
Song Luokui laughed, "I have to commend you for your sense of duty to keep national secrets confidential no matter what. Don't worry, I won't ask about national secrets, and of course, I won't ask about your company's secrets either."
Song Luokui picked up her phone and opened an app that said she needed to ask her boyfriend a few questions, along with some other questions she wanted to know tonight.
"First, earlier tonight, you said I wasn't your girlfriend, so why did you tell others that you have a girlfriend?"
Chi Yu: "Because in my heart, I'll only have one girlfriend, and that's you, and it can only be you."
Song Luokui lowered her eyes, "What if I don't agree to be with you?"
Chi Yu: "I'll keep waiting for you to agree."
Song Luokui looked up at him again, "And... what if I don't agree and choose someone else?"
Chi Yu's gaze sharpened: "Kill him!"
Song Luokui: ??
"...Darling, we must abide by the law."
Chi Yu grabbed her hand and laughed, "Yes, I'll abide by the law. What I meant was, I'll defeat him and take you back!" He placed her hand on his face, "I'll make you realize that only I deserve you. By the way, I like when you call me darling."
Song Luokui breathed a sigh of relief and stroked his face, "You scared me, I thought you were going to resort to force and coercion."
Chi Yu: "What if I did try to take you by force? What would you do?"
He had actually thought about it - if she resisted his advances, one day he might not be able to restrain himself and resort to force and coercion.
Song Luokui: "What could I do? I'd have to lie down and accept it. When I don't have enough strength, I'll lie down. When I have the ability, I'll strike back, if I don't like you."
Chi Yu pulled her into an embrace, "I love it when you talk about wanting to get rid of me." She's especially dazzling.
Song Luokui: ...Why does she feel like he has issues?
Oh well, she chose him, issues and all.
Song Luokui pushed him away, "We haven't finished asking questions."
Chi Yu sat up properly, "You continue."
Song Luokui: "How many people have confessed their feelings to you? I want to know how many rivals I have."
Chi Yu: "..."
Song Luokui frowned at him, "Why aren't you answering? Is it too many?"
Chi Yu pinched the bridge of his nose, "No... do love letters count?"
Song Luokui: "Of course."
Chi Yu: "...Ahem, has anyone written a love letter or confessed to your brother?"
Song Luokui stroked her chin, "As far as I know, quite a lot. I've even seen a whole backpack full of love letters for him..." Suddenly, she looked at Chi Yu, "Don't tell me you were one of them?" Thinking about it, it made sense. "Okay, I understand now. You don't need to answer this question. It's probably about the same as my brother's case."
Chi Yu suddenly asked, "Can I ask you a question?"
Song Luokui: "Sure, we can ask each other. If I can answer, I definitely will."
Chi Yu: "Did you also receive love letters?"
Song Luokui smiled awkwardly, "Haha, well, let's skip that question." Although she didn't receive as many as her brother, she did receive quite a few, and her brother had dealt with some of them.
Song Luokui: "Next question, next question."
"Did you like someone before me? Am I your first love?"
Chi Yu nodded with certainty, "Yes, you're my first love."
Song Luokui smiled, her eyes crinkling, "You're my first love too." Her first love in both lifetimes.
Chi Yu smiled back at her, "That's great~"
Song Luokui continued, "Is there anything you're hiding from me? Not including national or company secrets."
Chi Yu thought for a moment, "There shouldn't be anything."
Song Luokui nodded, "Then I believe you. If there is..."
Chi Yu: "If there is, you can have someone beat me up."
Song Luokui: "Next... no, you can ask me a question now." Song Luokui sat obediently and batted her eyes at him.
Chi Yu: "If... if your brother finds out about our relationship and doesn't approve, what would you do?"
Song Luokui paused, "That's a good question. It's like asking who I would save if you and my brother fell into the water."
Chi Yu: "So who would you save?"
Song Luokui: "Neither, you both know how to swim. If my brother finds out about our relationship and doesn't approve, I'll try to convince him to agree. If I can't convince him, then I'm afraid you'll have to remain my secret lover." Song Luokui patted his face, "Although my brother's opinion is important, your behavior is also very important. If you behave well, he'll agree."
"Of course, my parents' opinion is even more important." If her parents opposed it, she might have to seriously reconsider this relationship. But with her brother, it's quite obvious that they don't get along, so he's unlikely to approve.
Chi Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as we don't break up, it's fine." As for her parents, he was confident he could win them over.
Song Luokui asked some typical questions about favorite colors and hobbies. She continued until it was getting late and she grew tired, then stopped. Time would prove everything.
After Song Luokui fell asleep, Chi Yu left her room.
The two stayed in Banras for another two days before preparing to return to their country. Song Luokui was very satisfied with this trip and with Chi Yu. He was emotionally stable, able to properly handle and arrange various events. In short, he was very reliable.
On the first day back in the capital, Song Luokui wanted to surprise her brother Song Luosheng by going to his company to find him. However, as soon as she entered, she saw a beautiful woman trying to seduce her brother?
