Chapter 54 The Revolution Has Not Succeeded
Qi Yue finally left Chu Xingzhi where he was.

He pulled Ji Shiyan to an empty corner.

The expression on her face was a little ugly, but she still tried her best to maintain a fake smile, "Brother, please, I'm begging you. I'm really busy today. Let's make an appointment tomorrow at this time."

If it wasn't her who took the initiative to agree to the Ji Shiyan, Qi Yue could just turn around and leave now.

Although she could see that Ji Shiyan did it on purpose, she still tried her best to explain.

"He did me a big favor. If he doesn't mind adding one more person, it's fine. The key is that you heard that he does mind."

This was actually a bit of a euphemism, because Chu Xingzhi didn't just mind a little, he minded very much.

Ji Shiyan looked down at her, his tone filled with confusion, not sure if it was real or fake, "Are you two on good terms?"

When Qi Yue heard this question, her first reaction was to deny it, but before she could say the denial, she reacted first.

That’s not right. Why did she explain so much to Ji Shiyan?

Is he okay?
Thinking of this, Qi Yue straightened his back instantly, "This seems to have nothing to do with you, right?"

It really doesn't matter.

Ji Shiyan's eyes dimmed, but after a moment he said, "It doesn't matter."

Qi Yue felt as if she had won a round, and was about to laugh when Ji Shiyan said the next sentence, "But I'm curious, can't I tell you? Or... is your relationship very private?"

?

Whose good person uses the word private to describe a relationship?

She said this as if she was Chu Xingzhi's underground traveler.

Qi Yue frowned, and finally said after a while, "Colleague, help me find a new job."

Chu Xingzhi, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation not far away, narrowed his pupils slightly when he heard this.

This is indeed the geography, but why does it feel a little wrong when Qi Yue says it?

He was indeed Qi Yue's colleague. After all, they were in the same company, and he did help Qi Yue find a new job...but he still didn't like this statement.

If Qi Yue had added that Chu Xingzhi was her suitor, Chu Xingzhi would not have found it strange.

Now it made him feel that Qi Yue was trying to distance herself from him and tell the man in front of her how innocent their relationship was.

This feeling was very unfamiliar to Chu Xingzhi. He looked at the person not far away and tightened his fingertips hanging by his side.

"A colleague? Then you'd better stay away from him."

Ji Shiyan's voice was a little more serious.

Qi Yue found it a little funny when he heard that. Why should he stay away from him?
Yesterday Gu Tingchen told her to stay away from Fu Hansheng, and today Ji Shiyan told her to stay away from Chu Xingzhi. What’s wrong with these people?
You think everyone you see is a bad person, right?

"why?"

There was a playful smile in her eyes. Facing her gaze, Ji Shiyan hesitated for a long time before saying, "The way he looks at you... is not innocent."

This is the truth.

He didn't talk nonsense.

Qi Yue, who originally thought that Ji Shi had said some nonsense at the banquet to shut her up, was stunned when she heard such an explanation.

In fact, even if Ji Shiyan didn't say it, she could see it.

Qi Yue blinked, stammered for a long time, and finally spoke, "Ah... Is that so? Okay, I'll pay attention."

While saying this, Qi Yue touched his nose guiltily.

Thinking that touching the nose meant feeling guilty, Qi Yue hurriedly put his hand down.

Ok.

She has had enough.

"Then there's nothing else?"

If you have nothing else to do, please leave quickly. This temple is too small to accommodate two big Buddhas like you.

Originally, Qi Yue thought that Ji Shiyan agreed and said that he had nothing else to do, but Qi Yue heard Ji Shiyan say, "I'll wait for you."

“……?” Why are you waiting for me?
She clearly didn't say anything, but the confusion on her face was so obvious that Ji Shiyan understood it instantly.

"I promised my aunt yesterday that I would go see her today. You should also go to the hospital later, right? I'll wait for you."

"Ah?" Qi Yue looked a little confused, "Did you tell my mom that yesterday?"

How come she doesn't know at all?

Ms. Jiang Anlan never mentioned it to her at all.

Of course she didn't know, and Jiang Anlan certainly wouldn't mention it to her.

Because there is no such thing.

Based on the conversation between Qi Yue and Ji Shiyan, Chu Xingzhi had long realized that Qi Yue and Ji Shiyan should have a good relationship, but even so, he had never thought that this man had already established a good relationship with Qi Yue's mother.

An incredible expression appeared on Chu Xingzhi's face, and he suddenly didn't want to listen anymore.

Looking at Chu Xingzhi's lonely back as he left, Ji Shiyan lowered his eyes for a long while before saying, "Yes, Auntie told me that yesterday."

Since her mother said so?
Qi Yue thought that she would have to take a taxi anyway, and since Ji Shiyan was going to be there later, she might as well take a ride.

So after a few seconds of hesitation, Qi Yue agreed, "Then you wait for me for a while, or you can just eat something first."

"I'll pay."

As he turned to leave, Qi Yue added another sentence.

Watching Qi Yue's leaving figure, Ji Shiyan's eyes softened slightly, "Yeah."

But when he ordered the food, he didn't even wait for Qi Yue and paid directly.

Before leaving, Ji Shiyan seemed to remember something and suddenly asked the waiter, "Has the bill for that lady just now been paid?"

The waiter looked at him, and remembered the scene of Qi Yue standing with him just now. He thought that the two people should know each other, so he said, "Hello, sir, the lady's bill has not been paid yet."

"Then let's pay together."

Hearing this, the waiter adjusted his expression and asked as a matter of routine, "Excuse me, who is she to you?"

“The revolution has not yet succeeded.”
-
"Do you have a good relationship with that person?"

This was the first sentence Qi Yue heard when she returned to the box, from Chu Xingzhi.

Not knowing why Chu Xingzhi asked this, Qi Yue still answered casually, "We've known each other for a long time."

"Does he like you, too?"

Chu Xingzhi's eyes were fixed on Qi Yue, his gaze was unusually firm.

You can tell that he is curious about the answer to this question.

This topic was beyond the scope of what a normal friend should answer, so Qi Yue chose to refuse to answer.

"Why do you ask? Come on and eat, or it won't taste good if you don't."

This is already a clear rejection.

Chu Xingzhi is not a fool. He placed his hands casually on the table, his fingertips tapping on it unconsciously.

He didn't move his chopsticks for a long time.

He was not very happy with today's meal, especially after Qi Yue left.

"Little Moon."

Chu Xingzhi suddenly spoke.

Qi Yue, who was eating crab roe, stopped and looked up at him, "What's wrong?"

Calling her name for no reason.

"Do you still like me now? Even a little bit."

Chu Xingzhi said this with difficulty, but forced himself to say it.

Then the whole box fell into silence.
