The CEO's Courtship Diary

She's My Girlfriend!? 1

Yinqi Qing briskly entered the restroom with a purpose in mind. She retrieved her mobile phone and dialed a familiar and urgent number!

She paused, contemplating whether the call would be answered now. No, certainly not!

She pressed her temple with her fingers, as if suddenly struck by a thought, a faint smile gracing her lips.

Dialing again, but this time, it was a different number!

From the phone came a pleasant melody followed by the magnetic voice of Pei Yun: "Hello, this is Pei Yun!"

"Yun, it's me..." Yinqi Qing spoke tenderly into the phone.

"Qing... Qing'er, it's you!" Pei Yun, hearing Yinqi Qing's gentle voice, felt a chill down his spine, beads of cold sweat forming.

"Yes, it's me! Surprised? Yun, why haven't you and Qiao Qiao arrived yet?" Yinqi Qing knew Pei Yun wouldn't turn off his phone; it was against his nature to ignore calls, regardless of who was calling!

Though Yinqi Qing was reserved, her perceptiveness was keen.

"No, Qiao Qiao and I..."

"Yun, who are you talking to? Did you forget my instructions?" Song Zhiqiao pouted, pointing at Pei Yun, speaking loudly.

"Qiao Qiao, you know this person too. Why don't you take the call?" Pei Yun, innocent-faced, handed the phone to Song Zhiqiao. He hadn't intended to give her the phone, but her voice...! While it was his idea, he thought they should both be present. However, Song Zhiqiao adamantly refused, insisting on creating an opportunity for them to be alone: now they had it, but the bitterness fell on him!

Hearing that booming voice on the phone, Yinqi Qing felt even more amused!

"I know. Hello, I'm Song Zhiqiao. May I ask who's speaking?" Song Zhiqiao, looking at Pei Yun, asked softly, with a puzzled expression.

"My dear Qiao Qiao, don't you recognize me?" Yinqi Qing's eyes flashed with mischief. If you want to deceive me, I won't make it easy for you.

"Qing... Qing'er, it's you. Uh, did you... um, have you arrived at the 'Blue Forest'?" Song Zhiqiao, upon hearing Yinqi Qing, was covered in black lines, glaring at Pei Yun with watery eyes, gesturing: Why didn't you say it was Qing'er?

Pei Yun shrugged, still innocent-looking: You've given yourself away; it's not my fault! He pointed his slender finger to his throat.

Seeing Pei Yun's gesture, Song Zhiqiao wished she were mute, staring at Pei Yun in fear.

"Qiao Qiao, as I was saying, I've already arrived, but why haven't you and Pei Yun shown up yet? Oh, and that Ling Haoyu is here too, saying Yun invited him. You didn't tell me! Qiao Qiao, when did we become so distant?" Yinqi Qing's indifferent tone sounded to Song Zhiqiao like Yinqi Qing holding knives against her, saying, "I truly don't care if you come or not. Do I really not care?"

"Qing'er, why do you say that? Yun and I had something come up suddenly. We couldn't make it because his parents wanted us to come home for dinner, so we really couldn't! As for Yu, Yun invited him; I didn't know! Qing'er, I know you're the best to me, so could you please inform him for us? Thank you. I won't disturb your dinner. Goodbye!" Song Zhiqiao finished, immediately hanging up and even removing the battery, handing it to Pei Yun!

Goodbye, I hope it's a month before we meet again, Song Zhiqiao naively thought.

"Qiao Qiao, why did you say Yun invited us? Um... now Qing'er will be furious with me!"

"I told you to turn off your phone, didn't I? This is punishment! Relax, darling, I won't let you get hurt! Hehe, let's go eat!" Song Zhiqiao's face was full of mischief, a different person from the one who had just answered the phone.

"Where are we going to eat?" Pei Yun asked cautiously, seeing Song Zhiqiao's expression.

"Of course, we're going to your parents'. Otherwise, you'll be exposed! Really, you can't even think of that! I don't know how you manage your company!" Song Zhiqiao rolled her eyes at Pei Yun, handing him some candies and chestnuts.

"Oh!" Pei Yun replied weakly. Yes, he was quite capable, but with this little woman, he became foolish: he was beginning to understand more and more that a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea! He shook his head helplessly.

Yinqi Qing looked satisfied with the phone call; she got the reaction she wanted. She understood Song Zhiqiao; she wouldn't come and would likely turn off her phone, maybe even avoid them for a few weeks!

That's what she wanted, to make her uncomfortable. Though they were good friends, well, they should be called frenemies! She would also make her a little scared! Yinqi Qing revealed a cute smile.

After putting the phone back in her purse, she resumed her cold expression.

As she approached the dining table, she saw an extremely enchanting woman standing next to Leng Haoyu. She seemed angry, as her complexion was very poor, and her delicate, fair fingers were pointing at Leng Haoyu, while Leng Haoy

u remained with his arms crossed, looking cold.

But it had nothing to do with Yinqi Qing; she returned to her seat.

Wang Yujie glanced at her in surprise, as if realizing something, her gaze turning fierce.

Yinqi Qing glanced at her, ignoring her menacing look.

Leng Haoyu increasingly felt that the woman opposite was very special, watching her with keen interest.

"Yu... um, Qiao Qiao and Yun won't be coming. They said Yun's parents want them to go home for dinner!" Yinqi Qing, still holding her warm cup, calmly informed Leng Haoyu.

"So, we've been stood up by them!" Leng Haoyu smiled and replied.

Yinqi Qing nodded.

Wang Yujie, glaring at the two, felt ignored by their presence. She clenched her fists, adjusting her emotions, and asked seductively, "Yu, is this the reason you refuse to accept me?" She pointed at Yinqi Qing.

Leng Haoyu stared coldly at Wang Yujie, smirked mischievously, and nodded.

Though Yinqi Qing kept her head down, she still saw Leng Haoyu's expression. This person changed faces faster than flipping a page! But it had nothing to do with her; she just wanted to leave this place now.

"Why?" Wang Yujie glared fiercely at Yinqi Qing, calmly spitting out the words from her teeth.

"Do you think I need to explain to you?" Leng Haoyu glanced sideways at Wang Yujie, coldly retorting.

"What do I lack compared to her? She doesn't have the figure or the face. You're with me because my father looks at me with favor and gives those cases to you. What's wrong with being with me?" Wang Yujie ranted in frustration.

"Hmph, even if your father's cases were offered to me, I might not accept them! You're inferior in every aspect compared to her!" Leng Haoyu sarcastically replied, chuckling.

Yinqi Qing still didn't know if the woman was talking about her. She listened to the back and forth between the two, feeling annoyed. She didn't like this woman because she didn't know how to treat herself well, so why should she treat her kindly?!

"Yu, I have something to attend to. I'll be leaving. Let's eat next time when we have the chance!" Yinqi Qing said, picking up her bag and preparing to leave.

Leng Haoyu suddenly felt embarrassed; he had argued with this woman in front of her. He felt as though he had desecrated her!

He grabbed her, stopping her from leaving.

"Sorry, for arguing in front of you... Let's go somewhere else to eat. Since they're not coming, we can't just skip dinner!" Leng Haoyu awkwardly explained.

"It's okay. It's none of my concern anyway... Ah!"

On the side, Wang Yujie watched them ignore her again, seeing Leng Haoyu so nervous around this woman. She picked up the water on the table and splashed it towards Yinqi Qing.

Her face was soaked, and her sweater was drenched. Yinqi Qing wiped her face with her hand, lifted her head, and looked coldly at Wang Yujie!

Seeing Yinqi Qing's gaze, Wang Yujie's heartbeat slowed for a moment. She had never seen a woman's eyes so icy...

Leng Haoyu hurriedly took out tissues from the table and handed them to Yinqi Qing, but she merely held them, not using them! Leng Haoyu's face grew even darker as he watched Wang Yujie's expression...
