The Sweetest ‘Fake’ Couple

 Chapter 63 - Runaway (2)

Chi Chenyan got off work on time today.

The past is long gone, and he now have a good relationship with Lu Li.

Chi Chenyan hesitated to tell Lu Li about Bai Qianying because Lu Li didn’t seem to know yet.

He felt that Lu Li might be upset if she finds out about it. But he also felt that the husband and wife should be honest with each other.

When the car passed by a Sheng Jian Bao (pan-fried pork buns) shop, Chi Chenyan saw the people that were lining up outside.

He recently discovered that Lu Li likes to eat this shop’s pork buns. Her cheeks were bulging as she ate it one bite at a time.

She loves the masterpieces of the chefs at home, and at the same time, she has a soft spot for some street foods.

Lu Li usually waits for him to go home from work and the two will have dinner together.

So Chi Chenyan asked the driver to stop the car and go buy some pork buns.

In the end, Chi Chenyan took a bag of fresh pork buns and took the elevator to the 62nd floor. He opened the door.

Today, Lu Li did not greet him with ‘Husband is back’ like usual.

What did he do?

Chi Chenyan changed his shoes and put pork buns on the table, and looked for Lu Li’s figure.

Not here.

Chi Chenyan went to the second floor again, but she was still not there.

The man frowned slightly.

Didn’t Qian Yong say that he had sent Lu Li home?

Chi Chenyan went downstairs, called a servant, and asked where his wife went.

The servant said that the mistress came back this afternoon, but she left not long ago.

She went out again?

“Where did she go?” Chi Chenyan asked.

The servant shook her head and said that she didn’t know.

Chi Chenyan took out his mobile phone and called Lu Li. He wondered if there was something going on with her.

However, the phone rang for a long time and then there was the sweet female voice saying that ‘the call you dialed in unavailable’.

The man’s brow tightened.

He also sent a message to Lu Li via WeChat and asked: [Where are you? Why didn’t you answer the phone?]

He then called her on WeChat.

Still no answer.

Chi Chenyan suddenly began to panic.

He couldn’t get in touch with Lu Li, and wondered if she had any friends that she contacts frequently.

Qiao Jiayi.

It’s just that he doesn’t have Qiao Jiayi’s phone number.

Chi Chenya took a deep breath, and was about to ask his secretary to find Qiao Jiayi’s phone number when his phone suddenly rang.

It was an unfamiliar number.

Chi Chenyan picked it up.

“Uh, is this Chi Chenyan?”

Chi Chenyan: “It’s me.”

The person on the other side of the call heaved a sigh of relief: "I am Qiao Jiayi, Lu Li's friend."

Chi Chenyan did not expect Qiao Jiayi to call him first: "I know."

Qiao Jiayi talked about the contents of her phone call with Lu Li earlier. Lu Li learned that he had a relationship with Bai Qianying in high school.

Qiao Jiayi: “Lu Li seems to be a little sad. Go back and coax her.”

“I know that you… you lied to Lu Li, but she likes you very much now. I know that you have nothing to do with your former girlfriend, but it is normal for Lu Li to not accept it for a while, and you didn’t even tell her about it. Coax her more, and don’t make her feel sad, please?”

“Don’t feel annoyed, she doesn’t want to be like this either. She treats you as a husband that she loves because of the accident. It is already pitiful.”

“After all, you still… took the opportunity to live a married life with her.”
