There is such a man by your side, you must cherish him well

  Wei Ran took Little Mu Ran into the cubicle, while Song Yu waited outside at the sink, washing her hands and checking her face in the mirror to make sure everything was fine.

  The bathroom door opened and someone walked in. Song Yu didn't notice, but the other person stopped and called out: "Song Yu?"

  Unexpectedly, it was Liang Lihua who negotiated.

  Song Yu turned off the faucet and turned around to look at her coldly.

  Li Hua did not expect to run into Song Yu here either, it had been many years and she would never have thought that she would meet a member of the Song family again in any high-end occasion.

  They set up a charity foundation and tonight is their board meeting, but unexpectedly, they bumped into Song Yu.

  "How did you end up here?" Liang Lihua asked with a bad expression, recalling Yu Keyao's words, her well-maintained face suddenly turned cold, and she questioned in a cold tone, "Did you come with Qi Chengyi?"

  "Do you have something on your mind?" Song Yu asked coldly, not even bothering to call her Aunt.

  Yu Zidong is the second son of the Yu family. Since his grandparents passed away, the company's power has been in the hands of the eldest son, Yu Zixiu. In the early years, Yu Zidong was very unhappy in the Yu family and although he held a high position in the company, he had no real power. Behind his back, everyone in the company said that he was just a figurehead, drawing a high salary without doing anything, having no ability, but being lucky to have been born into the Yu family.

  Liang Lihua wasn't a thrifty person, so she instigated Yu Zidong to start his own business. She managed Yu's finances and borrowed money from him. The other party naturally refused to cooperate, so Yu Zidong had no choice but to sell some of the company's shares. He definitely couldn't sell all of them, and the part he sold wouldn't affect many of his personal interests.

  Also borrowed some from the Song family.

  At that time, Liang Lihua ran to the Song family every day to cry with Yu Qianying. Yu Zidong also came to cry and complain about how he was bullied and suppressed by Yu Zifu in the Yu family. They also talked about the difficulties of running a new company. At the beginning of the establishment of the new company, it takes a long time for the company to get on track. Then, huge investment is needed, and it takes another long time to keep the profit and loss balanced before slowly turning losses into profits.

  Yu Zidong was working, and Liang Lihua would come to the Song's house every day to chat with Yu Qiangying. They would talk and cry, almost every time. At that time, Yu Qiangying thought her own conditions were good, and the Song family's company was stable, so she also let Song Donglin help them a bit more, without being stingy at all.

  Liang Lihua would take Yu Qianying out to eat and have fun, no matter what, Yu Qianying always paid the bill, Liang Lihua just shouted "I'll pay, I'll pay" but in reality, she never reached for her purse.

  Song's family went on a trip, and Yu Qianying would also invite Yu Zidong and Liang Lihua along. She even covered their travel expenses. At that time, Yu Qianying didn't think much of tens of thousands of yuan, having lent out hundreds of thousands without hesitation. However, no matter what, Yu Qianying's help wasn't something to be taken for granted. But apparently, Liang Lihua thought otherwise, believing that Yu Qianying should unconditionally help her own brother like this.

  Every time Yu Qianying gave her money, Liang Lihua was always grateful, but after a few days, she put down the gratitude and resumed her usual attitude as if the whole world owed her a living.

  Later on, Yu Zidong's company improved and gradually became prosperous. This couple didn't visit the Song family as often anymore.

  Later on, the Song family went bankrupt, and Yu Zidong's family hastily drew a clear line with them.

  As for this uncle and aunt, Song Yu was deeply disgusted with them.

  "I've heard about what happened between you and Qi Chengzhi." Liang Lihua looked at her coldly, her well-maintained face full of pride, a stark contrast to the pitiful look she had when frequently visiting the Song's house.

  Now looking at her, it's hard to imagine how pitiful she was back then.

  "Break up, don't make our Yu family lose face." Song Yu didn't speak, and Liang Lihua said bluntly, "First engaged to my younger brother, now with my older brother, how can you do such shameless things? Not only are you losing face for the Yu family, but also for your own Song family. Even if the Song family is bankrupt now and no one in our circle remembers you, would it be good to spread this around?"

  "We've already cut ties with the Yu family, so we won't be embarrassed by you either." Song Yu didn't want to stand here and get entangled with her, "This is a public place, it doesn't sound good for you to say this out loud. If you only wanted to tell me this, sorry, but you have no right to control me."

  To Liang Lihua, Song Yu didn't bother to use honorifics anymore and was about to bypass her to leave. Wei Ran should have also heard the commotion in there.

  Liang Lihua stretched out her arm to block her, took a few steps forward, and then blocked her way again. "You also admit that it's not good to say it out loud? You're doing such an unpleasant thing? Song Yu, break up with him, I'm doing this for your own good, don't be ungrateful!"

  "I don't need you to do me a favor, so you don't have to rush over here." Song Yu said coldly, his originally calm face also tensed up, rarely revealing anger, "Please step aside."

  "How stubborn you are!" Liang Lihua's face was tense with anger, glaring at Song Yu, "The Qi family doesn't want to see you, what's the point of rushing over? And you even snatched your sister's man!"

  Song Yu looked at Liang Lihua with a mixture of laughter and tears, thinking that her brain might not be like normal people's since she had been crying at the Song's house every day. Now she said something like this again, making Song Yu so angry that he didn't know what to say anymore.

  "What's the point of stealing my sister's boyfriend?" Song Yu found it laughable.

  "You also saw Ke Yao go on a blind date with Qi Chengzhi, the Qi family is very fond of Ke Yao, why do you still intervene and obstruct? You are not possible to marry into the Qi family, it's better to break up with Qi Chengzhi early!" Liang Lihua didn't think she said anything wrong at all, and was very confident.

  Song Yu's lips were tightly pursed, inhaling deeply, suppressing the flames in her heart, and forcing a calm tone: "Firstly, I don't have a sister, we've had no relationship with the Yu family for a long time. Secondly, I was already dating Qi Chengzhi before, Yu Keyao was just someone we met once for matchmaking. That matchmaking dinner, Chengzhi didn't even know about it, he was deceived by his family into going, and after that, there was no further contact with Yu Keyao, nor did he show any interest in her. How could I have stolen her man? If anyone is obstructing, it's actually her inserting herself between us."

  "Besides, whether I will be accepted by the Qi family or not is our business, it has nothing to do with you, and it also has nothing to do with Yu Ke Yao. Our affairs don't need your concern either. And please don't come here feeling smug, talking to yourself, and thinking that you can interfere in my affairs."

  "Song Yu, I'm telling you nicely but you won't listen. Don't be shameless! When did your skin become so thick? Can't you see your current status, whether it's suitable for Qi Chengzhi or not?" Liang Lihua glared at her. "If I were you, I would have hidden far away and wouldn't dare to have any connection with this circle again! If you know what's good for you, in the future when Ke Ya and Qi Chengzhi get married, I can still give you some money and help support you two. Even if a big company can't be opened, opening a small one is enough."

  "Song Yu, what's wrong?" Xiao Mueran finished using the restroom and was led out by Wei Ran, who intentionally asked a question to interrupt Liang Lihua.

  Just now in the cubicle, Liang Lihua's words were also heard clearly by Wei Ran.

  Fortunately, there aren't many people in Hongdingli, and each room has its own bathroom, so basically no one comes to the public restroom.

  Originally, this was Song Yu's private matter and she didn't find it convenient to intervene, but listening to Liang Lihua becoming more and more excessive in her words, she couldn't help but come out.

  When she saw Wei Ran, Liang Lihua's face suddenly froze.

  Although Wei Ran rarely shows up, he is still very famous in this circle. It's really being spoiled by Wei Zi Qi to fame, and now the young lady of the Wei family, Wei Mu Ran, also has a high degree of recognition. Although Liang Lihua had no contact with the Wei family, she was able to recognize them at first glance.

  "Just now in the cubicle, I heard a noise outside, and it seemed to be telling you to break up with Chengzhi?" Wei Ran took out his mobile phone, "Do we need to let Zizi and Chengzhi come over for a moment?"

  "Hmph!" Liang Lihua snorted in anger, didn't say a word, and stormed off.

  After she left, Wei Ran asked: "Are you okay?"

  Song Yu shook his head, "Nothing."

  After returning, Song Yu and Wei Ran didn't say anything to each other.

  This is Song Yu's business, and Wei Ran doesn't want to say more.

  To Song Yu, what Liang Lihua said was too ridiculous. Since she wouldn't break up with Qi Chengzhi, there's no need to say those meaningless words to him again.

  After returning, Song Yu sat back beside Qi Chengzhi. The words of Liang Lihua earlier were not completely without effect on her. At least, they made her want to stay with Qi Chengzhi even more.

  Sitting beside him, her soft body quietly and tightly pressed against his arm, her right hand passed under his arm from the bottom, and with a slightly trembling motion, crawled into his palm. The tips of her five slender fingers gently opened his finger seams, as if lightly scratching him.

  Finally, she intertwined her fingers with his, grasping his hand firmly and steadily. Her fingertips touched the back of his hand, where the skin was thin, allowing her to feel the tendons clearly. She gently rubbed against them. Her thumb lightly caressed the joints of his index finger, which were particularly slender.

  Her left hand rested on his arm, her whole body leaning against him, unusually obedient and docile.

  "What's wrong?" She seemed unusually proactive, originally in front of the people from Yanbei City, and also with Han Zhuo Lie and Wei Zhi Qian whom she wasn't very familiar with. With her personality, she wouldn't usually stick so close to him like this, as if she was being coquettish.

  Just now she just glanced at her from afar and blushed, but this time she proactively came over, something must have happened.

  "There's nothing." Song Yu shook his head, not daring to look into those deep eyes, afraid of being seen through. He lowered his head and gently pressed his forehead against his shoulder, "I just missed you."

  The big hand that was held by her but felt very relaxed suddenly tightened, tightly wrapping around hers, the long fingers gently pressing down on the back of her hand a few times, "How about we go now?"

  His lips lightly touched her forehead, and his low, husky voice trailed down along the center of her eyebrows, speaking in a warm, gentle tone that made her entire face feel especially hot.

  Those black eyes stared at her intensely, even without lifting his head, she knew how thick the emotions inside him were at this moment.

  Song Yu's ears were burning, she thought she said "I miss you" not "I want you", why is he overreacting like this?!

  "I didn't mean it that way." Song Yu said in a low, husky voice, pinching his slender palm, his ears flushing bright red. "I just missed you, wanted to come over and lean on you, not...not wanting to do that thing again."

  "But you're so close to me, I want to do it." Qi Chengzhi tightly grasped her hand, and with the other hand, he quietly reached under his arm that was being held by her, touched her soft belly, and gently poked and pinched it.

  Song Yu's lower abdomen was itchy and numb from his poking, and she couldn't help but shrink back, but instead made herself tremble even more.

  Chi Cheng lowered his head, and his slightly dry lips lightly touched her forehead. As he did so, his lips brushed against her forehead, and when he looked down, he saw her flushed face.

  Her flushed cheeks were also emitting a faint fragrance, and Qi Cheng's nose was lightly sniffing her hairline, and he couldn't help but heavily kiss her forehead.

  Song Yu's face was burning, and he suddenly felt that the surroundings had become so quiet. His eyes slid outward stealthily, and with a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw that everyone's gaze had fallen on them.

  Wei Zi Qi covered Xiao Mu Ran's eyes, and Qi Cheng Lin also covered Qi You Xuan's eyes. They're so young to see adults being affectionate like this, what if they learn from it?

  Boys can cope with it, but girls are easily taken advantage of.

  Wei Zi Qi's eyes twitched as he watched that loving couple who didn't care about the occasion.

  Song Yu's face was burning with embarrassment, so she simply hugged Qi Chengzhi's arm tightly and buried her face in his shoulder, not looking at those people. At this moment, she really wanted to leave early as Qi Chengzhi had said earlier.

  Qī Chéngzhī glanced at them lightly and took out his phone from his pants pocket, sending a message in the WeChat group: "Don't look anymore, she's shy."

  Everyone: "......"

  Yan Beicheng cleared his throat, pulling the topic open with a loud voice, and the atmosphere became lively again. No one paid attention to Song Yu anymore. Song Yu let out a sigh of relief, his face leaving Qi Chengzhi's shoulder, and his left hand, which was originally holding onto Qi Chengzhi's arm, lifted up to slowly comb through his long hair with delicate fingertips, which had become disheveled from being pressed against Qi Chengzhi's shoulder earlier.

  The other hand holding Chi Cheng's hand was about to withdraw, but was tightly grasped by Chi Cheng and refused to let go.

  It wasn't until the waiter came with their dishes that Qi Cheng let go of her.

  At mealtime, Qi Chengzhi finally didn't do anything else that drew attention.

  After everyone finished eating, the three children were also tired. Xiao Muzhen had already fallen asleep in her stroller, while Xiao Muran was lying on Wei Ziqi's lap, wanting to sleep but unable to due to the noisy environment, her eyelids fluttering open and shut, yet she couldn't fall asleep.

  Before falling asleep, Qi Youxuan whispered to Qi Chenglin's ear: "Dad, don't forget to invite Uncle and the others on my birthday, if they can't come, the red envelopes must arrive."

  "Go back to sleep!" Qi Chenglin said with a dark face.

  So everyone didn't stay much longer either.

  They walked into the hall, saying goodbye, and Wei Ran let Song Yu have time to go to the Wei family to play with her, and six middle-aged wealthy women also came out.

  "Huh? Isn't that Qi Chengzhi? I heard your daughter is going on a blind date with him, how come he has a girlfriend?" someone said beside them.

  Liang Lihua narrowed her eyes and stiffly looked at Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu's tightly clasped hands.

  "Hehe, who knows what kind of relationship they have, maybe they're just some casual fling from outside, otherwise why would his family arrange a blind date for him?" Liang Lihua's face turned ugly as she sneered, "You guys wait here, I'll go over and say hello."

  After finishing speaking, he took a deep breath and walked over with his eyes fixed on Song Yu.

  "Is that really the little lover she found outside?" After Liang Lihua left, someone said, "I don't think so, besides, Qi Chengzhi has been single for many years and hasn't even had a rumor about being with anyone, who would he find a lover?"

  "What a great guy! Unfortunately, I don't have a daughter; otherwise, I would also want to introduce her to him and have them get married, that's the only way to be at peace."

  "So I think that Lihua won't let go this time, no matter whether it's from Qi Chengzhi's background or his character, both are worth grasping tightly."

  Liang Lihua guessed that they would definitely gossip behind her back, so she got even angrier.

  Song Yu is also too shameless!

  With an identity like mine, still following Qi Chengzhi out and about, letting people gossip behind our backs!

  Song Yu first saw Liang Lihua walking towards them, and his hand, which was being held by Qi Chengzhi, stiffened, exerting a slight force. Qi Chengzhi turned back with an unchanged expression, and Liang Lihua had already stopped in front of them.

  "What a coincidence, running into you here." Liang Lihua said coldly, her eyes glancing at Song Yu with a warning.

  Zi Cheng nodded slightly, didn't respond, and seemed distant.

  Li Hua knew that the wealthy ladies behind her couldn't hear their conversation, so she deliberately turned her body to let them see her expression clearly. Only then did she smile and say, "Chengzhi, when you have time, come over to my place for a casual visit and have a simple meal!"

  "I'm afraid I don't have time." Qi Chengzhi said lightly. "I was just about to find some time to visit Song Yu's parents."

  "Really?" Liang Lihua stiffened and smiled, "Do your parents know about this matter?"

  Qī Chéngzhī just pulled a face and said lightly: "Didn't Miss Yú go back and say anything?"

  "Take it from me, as your elder, I advise you one thing, don't be so reckless, it's not good for yourselves either." Liang Lihua coldly glanced at the two hands clasped together.

  Qī Chéngzhī nodded slightly, "Farewell."

  Others also followed suit and came out of the red top, Yan Beicheng and others even turned back to look at Liang Lihua, their eyes as if looking at a madman.

  Li Hua's face was frozen in a scowl, her tightly stretched skin twitching with rage.

  Zi Chenglin pushed Zi Youxuan again, and Zi Youxuan immediately shouted cleverly: "Goodbye Uncle, goodbye Aunt!"

  Li Hua's face looked even more unsightly.

  ……

  ……

  In the car, Qi Chengzhi drove for a while before asking: "Just now when you went to the restroom, did you run into Liang Lihua?"

  Is there anything this man can't guess?

  Song Yu felt somewhat depressed, always feeling that nothing could be hidden from this man's eyes.

  She had no choice but to admit it and roughly told what happened in the bathroom.

  "This Saturday, Jian Yi and Cheng Yue's wedding, come with me." Qi Chengzhi was silent for a moment before speaking up, "The Yu family will also be attending."

  Song Yu fell silent for a moment before softly saying, "Okay."

  Before her eyes, a white and clean big hand appeared, holding her hand while driving, as if it had become Qi Chengzhi's habit.

  Before that, she had seen a link shared by someone in the friend circle, which roughly said that when men do these small actions, it means they have you in their heart, and if there is such a man by your side, you should cherish him well.

  One of them is when driving, he will unconsciously hold your hand.

  Before that, Song Yu thought it would affect his driving, but after seeing that, he liked this little action of his.

  Tomorrow is Jian Yi and Qi Cheng Yue's wedding day. I wonder if many relatives doubt they can get married? Hehe~
