Song Yanru looked anxious and clenched her fingers. “Master Chi, can you go with me to film that variety show?”

Chi Shuyan had long guessed what Song Yanru wanted. If she wasn’t pregnant, she wouldn’t have thought much of agreeing. Now that she was pregnant, however, her child was naturally more important. Moreover, even if she was willing to go, her man might not necessarily agree.

So, she didn’t agree immediately and said, “Sister Song, it’s not convenient for me nowadays. I’m afraid I’ll have to think about it for a few days.”

Song Yanru originally thought that Master Chi would definitely agree, and she would just pay more when the time came. So, when Chi Shuyan didn’t agree right away, her face stiffened and her pupils contracted. Her nails dug into her flesh, but she didn’t feel the pain. Her whole body felt like it was soaked in ice water as she shivered.

She simply didn’t dare imagine the consequences if Master Chi didn’t go with her to film this variety show. Song Yanru suppressed the panic in her heart and didn’t immediately show fear. She gritted her teeth and said anxiously, “Master Chi, as long as you’re willing to come to this variety show with me, the price is not an issue.”

Chi Shuyan wasn’t interested in earning money now; rather, she was more concerned about the child in her stomach. “Sister Song, it’s not about money, but has to do with my condition: I’m three months pregnant. Even if I want to agree, my husband and family might not.”

When Song Yanru heard this, she subconsciously stared blankly at Chi Shuyan’s stomach. Because Song Yanru’s head was lowered, Chi Shuyan couldn’t see her expression at that moment, but the bulging veins on the back of her hands on the table revealed her emotions.

It wasn’t that Chi Shuyan wasn’t soft-hearted toward Song Yanru. After all, they were friends. She would usually do her best to help out a friend if she could. One more friend was one more connection, right?

But today, Chi Shuyan really couldn’t agree to the other party’s plea right away. Seeing her dazed and helpless appearance, she could only comfort her. “Sister Song, you might be thinking too much. Some things are just rumors, so everyone is on edge. Maybe there’s nothing in this Liang family residence. Of course, if you’re really worried, I can introduce you to a very competent Celestial Master.” For example, Gu Yunzheng.

Chi Shuyan originally thought that the other party would consider it, but who would have thought that as soon as she finished speaking, Song Yanru immediately rejected her suggestion and insisted that she agree.

“Master Chi, I… I really don’t have a choice. As the saying goes, it’s better to be safe than sorry. I don’t want to experience what happened at Dashan Village again.”

Thinking of what happened at Dashan Village, Song Yanru finally collapsed and lost control of her emotions. She was flustered and helpless, her eyes red and her face filled with naked fear. She really didn’t want to experience that kind of terrifying thing again. Master Chi had been there at least. If Song Yanru encountered something again this time… a chill ran down her spine just at the thought. She might as well kill herself first. She grabbed Chi Shuyan’s hand tightly in fear and begged in a low voice, “Master Chi, I beg you. For the sake of our friendship before, can you help me one last time? Just one last time!”

Chi Shuyan really didn’t expect the other party to still insist on her presence when she had clearly indicated that she was pregnant and could instead introduce a reliable person to her. Her head hurt terribly. She wanted to refuse, but when she saw the other party clutching at her with a terrified expression, as if she was clutching at her last lifeline, Chi Shuyan swallowed her words.

In the end, her man and child had priority, and Chi Shuyan still didn’t agree immediately. She just said that she would go back and discuss it with her family for a day, and would reply to Song Yanru tomorrow.

Song Yanru also knew that she was being forceful. Moreover, the fact that Master Chi hadn’t refused immediately was already the best outcome. Even if she was unwilling, she could only give up. She didn’t dare rush Master Chi at all, for fear that the other party would be disgusted and would immediately turn down her request.

The two drank some coffee. Song Yanru still wanted to treat her to lunch, but Chi Shuyan declined and excused herself to go home.

When she got home, she was the only one there. Her father was probably on a date with her teacher. Her man was at work, and Chef Li and the two little guys were at Imperial Restaurant.

Hence, Chi Shuyan was home alone in the middle of the day. However, a certain man who was worried about her would call every half hour. Who knew if he was worried about her being alone, but he specially asked her if she wanted to hang out at his company. There was a lounge in his office!

Chi Shuyan was moved by her husband’s suggestion, but after thinking about it, she decided not to disturb Qi Zhenbai. Once she went over, this man’s attention would probably be on her.

She might as well let this man do his work first so that he would have more time to rest tonight, so she turned down this suggestion. Before hanging up, she only told him to come home as soon as possible today so that she could discuss Song Yanru’s matter with him.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Qi Zhenbai said, “Come in!”

A project team came in to present the annual reports as well as the plans for next year.

Qi Zhenbai waited for everyone to come in. He didn’t have them give their reports right away, but called for his chief assistants to come in and immediately arrange a meeting about the annual reports and plans for next year.

“Yes, Boss!”

Chi Shuyan was distracted in the afternoon. She thought she would have to wait until at least 6:30pm for Qi Zhenbai to get off work. Who would have thought that he would call her at 6:00pm to say that he was waiting in the car outside the villa.

“You’re home? So soon?” Chi Shuyan was pleasantly surprised. Hearing the man’s voice, she itched to run outside right away.f𝚛e𝚎𝙬𝑒𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝐞𝒍. c𝐨𝙢
