Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The elevator doors were about to close.
Suddenly, a hand reached in, and a handso man’s face appeared before her.
Chi Enen was taken aback!
Li Beijue?
Why did he follow her? Wasn’t he professing his love to Sheng Aiyi?
For so reason, Chi Enen recalled how he had cornered her not a long ago, making her instinctively take a step back in defense.
The cold-faced man seed as if he hadn’t heard her speak at all. He walked straight into the elevator without even glancing at her during the entire process.
‘Ding—’ The elevator doors closed.
In the confined space, just the two of them remaining, Chi Enen couldn’t help but feel tense.
However, none of the scenarios she anticipated occurred. From beginning to end, Li Beijue never looked back at her. Even when the elevator stopped at the underground parking garage she wanted to go to, and she hurried out, he made no move.
It wasn’t until Chi Enen disappeared around the corner of the garage and the elevator doors closed again that the previously expressionless man angrily punched the elevator buttons!
There was a loud bang, several elevator buttons were smashed, and a buzzing electric sound ensued.
His recently scabbed left hand began to bleed anew.
Chi Enen found her car, opened the door just as she was sitting down, and a text ssage from Lin Anxin ca through.
Chi Enen had sothing to ask her, so she called her back right away.
The phone barely rang twice before Lin Anxin answered instantly.
“Hello, Enen, did you see the text ssage 1 sent you?”
“I saw it.”
“The thing you asked to take care of, my elder uncle managed to handle it for you. Enen, now that you’re a married woman, shouldn’t you treat us to a al?” Lin Anxin joked.
Chi Enen was not in the mood for jokes and wanted to get to the point, “Anxin, did you ask your elder uncle when he would have ti? I’d like to discuss the household registration with him as soon as possible.”
“That… 1 asked. He said he’s overseas and it’ll be a while before he can return.”
Baby Chi wouldn’t return until she’s almost 5 years old, which is half a year away. By then, that person should be back.
Chi Enen was relieved, “…Alright then.”
Another matter, however, lingered in her heart, “Oh Anxin, can you do a favor?”
“Sure, what do you need?”
Chi Enen found it a bit difficult to articulate, “I’d like to stay at your place for a week until I find myself a new house, and then I’ll move out.”
“You’re moving again?” Lin Anxin was surprised and pressed for details, “Didn’t you just move there? Why are you moving again? That apartnt was pretty nice, two rooms and a living room, close to the set, with a primary school nearby. It would be convenient for Bae Chi to go to school once she cos over. Why the sudden move?”
“Because Bae Chi’s father bought that suite.” Chi Enen did not want to deceive her.
“Bae Chi’s father?! He bought the house?!” Lin Anxin exclaid over the phone. After her surprise subsided, she cald down a bit and lowered her voice, “What’s going on with you two? Enen, you haven’t… don’t tease , you just got your marriage certificate with soone else.”
“It’s not what you think, or else 1 wouldn’t be planning to move. Anxin, can you let stay for a week?”
Lin Anxin was straightforward and very loyal, “Of course, you can.”
“I have to work late tonight for a shoot, so I’ll get back pretty late. You can head over directly; Qin Wenhao will be at ho.”
Qin Wenhao had been Lin Anxin’s boyfriend for 4 years. They started dating in university and were now discussing marriage. Qin Wenhao didn’t work in the entertainnt circle but had found a job at a foreign enterprise. Although his inco wasn’t as high as Anxin’s, who had made it to the E-list, it was considered quite good amongst average people.
“Thank you, Anxin.”
“What’s all this thank you between us? Don’t worry about it, just co over later.”
Chi Enen hung up the phone, gathered her scattered emotions, and imrsed herself wholeheartedly in her work..
