Chapter 116 Do you really think you are the local emperor?
When she reached the car, Li Siying remembered that Cheng Bai was still in the banquet hall.
"Do you want to wait for Cheng Bai?"
"No, he has his own place to go."
"Oh."
Nodding in understanding, Li Siwei opened the car door and prepared to get in.
However, the car door was closed by a strong hand.
She turned her head in confusion, and was surrounded by a slightly invasive woody scent. Then, with both arms resting on the car body, she was trapped between the car door and his chest in the man's embrace...
"What do you want to do?"
Frightened by the man's sudden action, Li Siying couldn't speak clearly.
Chi Yuheng, on the other hand, smiled with a curved lip, his tone full of resentment, "I'm working so hard outside, working overtime, just to be able to come back and see you earlier, but Li Li, you..."
"What's wrong with me?" Li Siwei was confused.
Chi Yuheng lowered his eyes and subtly narrowed the distance between them a little, then sighed softly, "Li Li doesn't seem very happy about my appearance, nor does she feel very surprised..."
No, isn't it?
Li Siwei felt guilty.
I must have been surprised when I saw him suddenly appear behind me just now.
Especially since he had put his coat on her shoulders the moment he appeared, and carefully wiped the stickiness off her fingertips with a handkerchief. After that, he stood by her side completely and unconditionally without asking a single question...
Although her parents, brother, and family members had doted on her since she was a child, it seemed that there was something a little different between how Chi Yuheng treated her and how he treated her.
"Why, why not?"
Li Siwei's voice was low and soft, with a hint of shyness that she herself didn't realize, "It's just that there were a lot of people in the banquet hall just now, and I was fighting with your nephew's wife, so I didn't have the chance to say it."
"Fight?"
Finding her description amusing, Chi Yuheng curled his lips and said, "Hmm, I see. My Li Li is invincible. She can be named an ever-victorious female general in the future."
Leaning lazily against the car, Li Siwei curled her lips, "Do you really think you're the local emperor?"
Chi Yuheng leaned forward, a charming smile on his lips, "If I were the emperor, I would make you the queen..."
"Empress? Why not Imperial Concubine?" Li Siwei was dissatisfied.
In the novels and plays she read, the most favored character was often the imperial concubine rather than the queen.
Li Siwei naturally thought that based on her appearance, if she became a concubine, she would at least be a scourge to the country.
But Chi Yuheng reached out and tapped her between the eyebrows, saying helplessly: "Because only the empress and the emperor are together for life..."
Li Siwei: “…”
Embarrassed pursed lips.
It seemed like no matter what they talked about, this person could turn an ordinary conversation into a confession.
Feeling her heartbeat suddenly quicken, Li Siwei desperately wanted to change the subject.
So he cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, then Cheng Bai is the commander-in-chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, right?"
Chi Yuheng: …???
As if he didn't follow Li Siwei's train of thought, he tilted his head in confusion.
Li Siying smiled awkwardly, trying to act calm. "Aren't you going to give him a higher position? Cheng Baitian follows you around all day, taking care of everything, big or small. Isn't he the head of the Imperial Household Department?"
"And Chen Chong, he's your bodyguard. In ancient times, he would definitely be a personal guard, and he would have to be from the imperial guard..."
Straightening up slightly, Chi Yuheng smiled, "I always hear you asking about Cheng Bai. I thought you had a good impression of him. How come you ended up giving him the position of commanding eunuch?"
"You're making up stories about him like this, aren't you afraid that he'll find out?"
The curve of Chi Yuheng's lips widened, with an obvious smirk.
Li Siwei:!!!
She didn’t say Cheng Bai was a eunuch!!!
"Ah! Ahh!"
Cheng Bai, who was busy cleaning up the banquet hall, suddenly sneezed twice.
He rubbed the tip of his nose in confusion and felt the temperature around him.
This doesn't look like a cold, does it?
Is someone teasing him behind his back?
In the underground parking lot, Li Siwei puffed out her cheeks and angrily said, "You're clearly changing the subject. I just said 'Grand Commander of the Imperial Household Department', which is a legitimate official position. How did you turn it into the Grand Commander of the Imperial Household Department?"
"If anyone wants to make up a story, it's you who should make it up. Humph! Stop putting the blame on me."
When she got excited, she even grabbed the man's tie, brought him to her, and threatened, "Just wait, the next time I see Cheng Bai, I will definitely tell him that in the eyes of his boss, he is just a chief eunuch..."
The distance that suddenly closed, the opening and closing of the red lips, and the alluring curve of the chest...
Chi Yuheng felt his throat dry, as if he couldn't wait to seal that tempting softness with his lips...
But before he could make any move, the girl seemed to notice something was wrong with him. A flash of panic flashed in her eyes, and she quickly loosened his tie and instinctively stepped back...
"Li Li, I can..."
"Can't!"
Before he could say anything, Li Siying interrupted him immediately.
Looking at the girl's hurriedly evasive eyes, Chi Yuheng couldn't help laughing.
"Um...what about Chen Chong?" Li Siying abruptly changed the subject again.
"You have something to do with him?"
"Ah."
Li Siwei responded softly, "I have something I want to ask him..."
The incident happened so suddenly that she didn't know how Chen Chong persuaded the cleaning lady to lie and say that she had taken the wrong phone.
Although the claim that it was an accidental mistake does not stand up to scrutiny, no one would delve into it in the situation just now. As long as the matter was successfully exposed, it would be of no use even if Lin Wanrou discovered something unusual later.
After all, this happened unexpectedly, and I wasn't thoughtful enough. I should really thank Chen Chong...
"Do you want to ask him about what happened just now?" Chi Yuheng smiled.
"how do you know?"
Li Siwei was a little surprised, but when she thought about the fact that Chen Chong was his bodyguard, it was not strange that she reported everything to him.
"Has Chen Chong told you everything?" Li Siwei asked.
"this matter……"
Chi Yuheng was about to speak when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure behind a pillar not far away. He gently reminded Li Siwei, "There's someone there. We'll talk about this later."
As soon as he finished speaking, he let go of her hand, stood up, and said coldly to the side, "Come out!"
The man's voice was not loud, but in the quiet underground parking lot, it still echoed in circles...
Li Siwei turned her head in confusion and looked in the direction of his gaze, only to see a familiar figure slowly walking out from behind a pillar not far away. It was Zhou Chengfeng!
I was shocked, and I didn't know how long he had been there, or how much of their conversation he had just heard...
"Uncle..."
Zhou Chengfeng moved slowly, looking a little ugly.
"Eavesdropping under the wall! Ha! Zhou Chengfeng, you are really becoming more and more promising now!" Chi Yuheng sneered.
"I...I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just happened to be passing by..."
Zhou Chengfeng lowered his head, and there was a slight tremor in his voice.
"Just happened to be passing by?!"
Chi Yuheng's voice was still cold. "Following me all the way from the elevator here, you're really as good at chance encounters as your woman!"
Zhou Chengfeng:……!!!
He suddenly looked up and saw that his hands were clenched into fists.
His chest heaved violently, and anger welled up in Zhou Chengfeng's eyes. "It's always you, my uncle, who lectures me. Today, I want to ask you what's going on between you and her!"
