Chapter 166: Chapter 165: When You Like Someone, You Just Do
Chi Gui twisted his brows, âNo. Whatâs wrong with his illness? Wasnât the surgery very successful?â
Old Jin, the ruler of the Jin Family, one of the Four Great Families, had a good relationship with Old Sir Fu, and Chi Gui had personally performed the surgery.
It absolutely couldnât go wrong again.
He was confident about that.
Old Sir Fu also wasnât very clear: âI only heard Old Jin mention he felt a bit dizzy half a month ago, and since he hasnât looked for you, he should be fine.â
Chi Gui acknowledged him, but he etched the matter in his mind.
After watching Old Sir Fu leave, Chi Gui was just about to head back when a harsh screeching of brakes suddenly sounded at the entrance.
The next second, Fu Si burst in.
At midnight, Fu Si was only wearing a thin set of casual clothes; his glasses were off, and the fringe on his forehead was wet with sweat, making it appear darker, framing his slightly up-turned phoenix eyes that looked as deep and mysterious as the ocean, dangerous.
Seeing Chi Gui, Fu Siâs footsteps came to an abrupt halt.
He had run hastily, panting slightly, but in a flash, his handsome and brooding face returned to normal.
Fu Si raised his eyebrows, his phoenix eyes first scanning over Chi Guiâs figure. Seeing she was unharmed, he finally spoke.
With a casual voice tinged with a bit of tease, âChi, are you waiting for me?â
He didnât bring up Old Sir Fuâs matter.
Chi Gui: âŠ
She gave Fu Si a silent glance, thoughts complicated by the earlier call from Qin Cheng, and finally said, âAre you⊠worried about me?â
Although she hadnât thought about it initially, the moment she saw Fu Si rush in so anxiously, she understood the misunderstanding.
Fu Si didnât know her real identity and must have said something that led Old Sir Fu to the wrong conclusion.
But⊠was he really that concerned about her?
Hearing Chi Gui ask this, Fu Si chuckled softly.
He straightened out the sleeves that had become somewhat disheveled from his rush and looked at Chi Gui, his phoenix eyes shining under the light of the grand hallâs chandelier, âChi, is that even a question? Iâve made it so obvious, even a blind person could see it, couldnât they?â
Chi Gui fell silent again.
After a while, she finally asked with some confusion, âWhy? We⊠arenât that close, are we?â
Chi Gui truly couldnât understand such unfounded emotions.
In her view, there should be a reason for everything â whether itâs gratitude, revenge, hate, love, or any other emotion.
âThere arenât that many whys,â said Fu Si nonchalantly, his lips curving into a slight smile before he boldly reached out and patted her head, mussing her hair, âLiking someone is just liking them.â
Chi Gui was ready to go to sleep, her hair disheveled, and Fu Siâs action left her looking fuzzy-headed, like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Chi Gui stepped back and frowned, âBut I donât like you.â
However, Fu Si didnât continue on this topic. Instead, he reached out again, ruffling her hair, âChi, itâs not suitable to discuss this topic at midnight. You should go to sleep.â
Chi Gui: âŠ
It was the first time she had received such a direct and ferventâŠconfession?
Should this be considered a confession?
Inside the elevator, Chi Gui couldnât help but touch her chest and furrow her brows slightly.
Why⊠did she feel so strange when she saw Fu Si run in so worriedly?
It wasnât until she reached the 23rd floor and stepped out of the elevator that Chi Gui sluggishly realized.
She had actually let Fu Si pat her head twice??
â
Fu Family.
When Fu Si entered the grand hall, turning the key, Old Sir Fu was still up, sitting on the sofa in the grand hall, leisurely sipping tea.
Seeing Fu Si come in, Old Sir Fu slightly lifted his eyes, peering at him through the slit of the teacup lid.
Waiting for Fu Si to speak.
