Song Luokui was still sleeping when her phone was bombarded with calls and messages.
Early in the morning, people were sneaking around the Song Family's neighborhood, wanting to catch a glimpse of the excitement.
"I heard someone saw the kid from the Song Family fighting with the kid from the Chi Family yesterday. Could it have been over the Song Family's daughter?"
"It looks like the Song Family's daughter and the Chi Family's son are together?"
"Hey, I think it's great, both are exceptional kids."
"Weren't the Song Family's son and the Chi Family's son at odds since childhood?"
"No problem, once they become in-laws, it'll be fine."
"If the Song Family and the Chi Family unite, then in the future... the situation will likely change quickly."
"As if it's for real. Even if it is, can't they just break up? I think my daughter isn't bad either."
"You woman, I'm not belittling you, but do you think the Chi Family's son would look at your daughter?"
...
Chi Yu and Song Luosheng also quickly discovered the video in the morning and immediately contacted people to remove it.
Although the video was deleted, those who knew about it already knew.
Zhou Yuan called Song Luosheng, "Big boss, should we rally the brothers? What happened last night?"
Song Luosheng had tossed and turned all night without sleeping, looking haggard. "Not yet. It's nothing major. Let's leave it for now."
Zhou Yuan: "Huh?"
Nearby, Zhou Yue opened her gossiping eyes wide. "Brother, what did the big boss say? What's up with Luokui and the Chi Family guy?"
Zhou Yuan: "Didn't Luokui tell you guys?"
Zhou Yue: "I called Luokui, but she didn't answer. She can't still be sleeping at this hour, can she?"
Zhou Yuan: "The big boss didn't say anything either." If Luokui had anything with the Chi Family guy, he was afraid the big boss would do something drastic.
Meanwhile, the subject of everyone's discussion, Song Luokui, had woken up, but she didn't check her phone. After washing up, she went downstairs for breakfast without seeing her brother, as her parents had already left early.
After eating, she left for school by car.
It was only then that she had time to check her phone and saw all the calls and messages.
There were missed calls and messages from Zhang Xiyue, Lou Sasa, Weng Jiao, and even Chi Yu had called her once.
Song Luokui opened the messages and realized that a video of her brother publicly beating up Chi Yu yesterday had been uploaded, and many people knew about it, but the video had already been deleted.
In the sisters' group chat:
Zhang Xiyue: !! Luokui, is this the big news you wanted to tell us?
Lou Sasa: The comments say you and the man in black, which is the Chi Family guy, went to buy ice cream, and then the man in white beat up the man in black. So Luokui, did you really go buy ice cream with the Chi Family guy?
Weng Jiao: Luokui, if you've really gotten together with Chi Yu, I'll be your disciple!
Zhou Yue: Luokui, it seems my parents know too, not only that, many people in the compound know that your brother and Chi Yu fought at your family's doorstep.
Tu Shanyue: Luokui, your taste is excellent, I support you~
Song Luokui thought for a moment before replying: It's true that Chi Yu and I went to buy ice cream and my brother saw us, so he beat up Chi Yu. I didn't expect it to be filmed and uploaded. Chi Yu and I... have indeed gotten together. I'll tell you more about this later, but for now, my brother is very angry, so I need to appease him first before telling you all.
After sending the message, Song Luokui breathed a sigh of relief. She then replied to others asking about her relationship with Chi Yu.
Until she reached school, Song Luokui thought her classmates wouldn't know, but the class president Xu Jiarong came and sat beside her. "Luokui? I saw that video this morning. You and Senior Chi... were you scared at the time?"
Song Luokui sighed and looked around. "Besides you, who else knows?"
Xu Jiarong waved her hand. "No one, just a few people know. I... well, I browse the hot searches every day, so... but the hot search has been removed, and the video is gone too, so don't worry."
Song Luokui: "I know. Chi Yu is my boyfriend. My brother didn't know, so there was a conflict. It's a small matter."
Xu Jiarong: "I'll definitely keep it a secret, definitely keep it a secret."
Song Luokui: "It doesn't matter if it's a secret or not anymore." It'll be made public eventually anyway.
Back in the dorm after class, her three roommates were present and immediately looked at her.
Song Luokui sat down tiredly. "You all know?"
The three nodded.
Song Luokui: "Sigh~ I didn't expect it to blow up like this."
Wang Sisi: "Is it because Senior Song doesn't approve?"
Song Luokui: "My brother indeed doesn't approve, but it doesn't matter now. I just didn't expect it to blow up this much." She was worried about this, as everyone in their circle was discussing it, and even the previous rumors about Chi Yu having a girlfriend had resurfaced.
Wang Sisi: "It'll be fine, Senior Chi and Senior Song will probably handle it."
Song Luokui: "Since you all know, there's no helping it. I'll treat you all to a meal when I have time."
The three were excited: "Sure, sure, we'll definitely make time."
On the other side, Song Luosheng went to the company, and everyone greeted him and observed his expression along the way, as everyone knew about yesterday's incident.
"The boss has arrived at the company, his expression doesn't look good, everyone needs to tread carefully."
As soon as Song Luosheng entered his office, he instructed, "Bring me the files for these projects and the branch offices."
"Yes."
Song Luosheng: "Schedule a meeting with the chairman of Shan Yu Group for me. I need to meet with him."
The secretary was stunned: "Shan Yu?"
Song Luosheng: "Yes."
"Yes, yes, I'll arrange it right away."
At Shan Yu Group, they were also baffled when receiving Song Hua's call. "What?"
"This is Li Zhengyang, the secretary of Songhua Technology's chairman. Our boss wants to meet with your boss. Could you please ask if your boss has time and agrees to the meeting? As for the reason, you should know."
"Please hold, I'll go ask."
The secretary immediately went to ask Chi Yu, who agreed.
Finally, both parties scheduled the meeting for 5 PM that afternoon at the Shan Yu Group office.
At that moment, the personnel of both sides actually sprang into action immediately. One side prepared to welcome guests, while the other side prepared documents and files. The personnel on both sides were also concerned about one issue - whether their bosses would get into a fight in the office. So they sent people, wondering if they needed individuals with higher combat capabilities.
Zhou Yuan said, "I'll go with the boss."
Lin Xingyan pondered for a moment, "Although I don't know what we're going to do, it's all for Sister Luokui, right? If they start fighting, immediately call Sister Luokui. I think she should be able to calm both of them down."
"After all, it's not like when we were kids anymore. If they fight, the impact would be significant. It's better to resolve it peacefully if possible."
"Okay."
