Chapter 107: Chapter 107: She’s Going to be Furious!!!

Watching Cheng Yi’s condition improve day by day, Xinan’s heart gradually eased.

So she also had to start "settling accounts" with Cheng Yi.

That day, just after Cheng Yi finished a check-up and sent the doctor away, he was stunned to see Xinan coming downstairs with her luggage in tow.

"Where... are you going?" he asked dazedly.

"I’m obviously going home. I’m really sorry for staying at your place for so long. I’ll transfer the rent to you once I get my work notice," Xinan said, as she carried her luggage downstairs.

"Going home?"

"Yes, after all, we are just friends now. If I keep imposing on you, people will talk," Xinan fabricated an excuse.

But of course, Cheng Yi didn’t believe her excuse because who would dare gossip about him, Cheng Yi? Moreover, Luming Academy is the most private elite residence in the country, where all the residents are societal elites; they wouldn’t gossip about others.

So Cheng Yi focused on the phrase "just friends."

After coming back from the hospital last time, Cheng Yi felt that Xinan wouldn’t leave him again and unilaterally converted their relationship into that of a couple.

But in Xinan’s heart, she had always been taking care of and caring for him as a friend.

Yes...they were simply friends now. It was only because he had used some tactics that he was able to keep her here; otherwise, she might have left long ago.

Cheng Yi curled his lips into a smile; since they were just friends, he would strive to close that distance.

It had always been Xinan taking the initiative before; this time, he would be the one to do so.

"I’ll take you," said Cheng Yi as he walked over and took the luggage from Xinan’s hands.

Xinan stood there stunned for a full five seconds. Take me? That’s it?

Xinan thought Cheng Yi would say something to make her stay, but she didn’t expect him to let her go just like that.

Damn it! She was so angry!!!

Xinan stomped her foot a couple of times, then took a few steps to get in front of Cheng Yi without giving him a single glance.

And all the way there, Cheng Yi couldn’t understand why Xinan wouldn’t talk to him.

In the end, when Cheng Yi stopped the car at the entrance of Xinan’s neighborhood, and before Cheng Yi could park properly, Xinan had already opened the door and stepped out.

Worried that Xinan might get hurt, Cheng Yi quickly parked and followed her out of the car.

Xinan ignored Cheng Yi, opened the trunk, and was about to grab her luggage.

But... why was this damn suitcase so heavy!!!

Unable to lift it with one hand, Xinan used both hands to hoist it up but couldn’t budge it. She was frustrated.

How could this be! It hadn’t felt so heavy when she carried it before. Could it be that Cheng Yi had secretly stuffed something inside?

Cheng Yi watched her huffing and puffing and couldn’t help but find it a little amusing.

He extended his long hand. "Let me help you."

Xinan puffed up her cheeks and directly rejected him, "No need!"

Seeing Xinan repeatedly trying to lift it but the luggage not moving at all, he shook his head helplessly and reached out to pull out the wheels that were stuck in the corner.

With his effort, Xinan managed to hoist the suitcase all the way out.

She was stunned for a moment, then dragged her luggage to head towards the complex entrance, only to be stopped by Cheng Yi.

He held onto Xinan’s arm, his eyes gently affectionate, "Nannan, what’s wrong?"

"Nothing’s wrong." And you’re asking me why?

"Can we talk about it?" he said.

Cheng Yi tried to pat Xinan’s head but missed as she dodged him.

He couldn’t help frowning.

"I’m really tired, I’ll go back first. Be safe on your way back," Xinan said and walked away. By the time Cheng Yi reacted, she was already entering the complex’s gate.

Cheng Yi smiled wryly to himself. Was she giving him the cold shoulder?

Not until Xinan’s figure had disappeared from sight did Cheng Yi slowly shift his gaze and then drove away.

As soon as he got home, Cheng Yi’s phone in his pocket vibrated.

He pulled out the phone to look, and it was a document sent by Ye Rui.

The information in it was about the person who posted the video of Xinan and Shen Yan online.

Cheng Yi walked to the living room, poured himself a coffee, and took a gentle sip.

He opened the document.

The name Lin Wei that popped up made him scoff coldly.

Her again...

It seemed he had warned her, hadn’t he?

Cheng Yi’s fingertips lightly slid across the screen, revealing Lin Wei’s detailed background information—she was born in a rural area with a younger brother at home.

Cheng Yi suddenly found her audacious, with no status or background, daring to commit such an act... Who gave her the courage?

At that moment, Ye Rui’s call came in.

"Mr. Yi, do you want me to deal with this person?" Ye Rui asked.

"Not yet," Cheng Yi’s voice was cold. Dealing with her like that was too light; he wanted to make this person pay a painful price, to regret their actions until they were desperate.

Cheng Yi glanced at the last line of the document, suddenly asked, "If I remember correctly, this President Zhang has a wife, doesn’t he?"

"Yes, Mr. Yi," Ye Rui answered.

A cold gleam flashed in Cheng Yi’s eyes, "Then let’s give them a taste of their own medicine."

Ye Rui was momentarily stunned before replying, "Yes, Mr. Yi, I’ll get on it."

-

When she opened her apartment’s door, a cold gust of air hit Xinan, making her shiver involuntarily.

The room was dark, with only faint light coming in from the window.

Because she hadn’t returned for a long time, there was a faint musty smell in the apartment.

Xinan turned on the living room lights, pushed her luggage inside, and even gave it a kick.

She sat on the sofa for a while, then began cleaning the apartment.

The apartment wasn’t very big, so Xinan cleaned quickly.

Xinan checked the time; it was already half-past eleven. She took off the apron she had been wearing, dug out her pajamas from her luggage, and then walked into the bathroom.

After her shower, Xinan crawled into bed, ready to play with her phone for a bit before sleeping.

When she turned on her phone, the screen showed two unread messages.

Xinan clicked to open them.

Ding Lan: "Nannan, Boss Li from Tianwen Entertainment wants to meet you for dinner at Haowei Hotel tomorrow."

Even though Ding Lan was no longer her agent, if someone wanted to contact Xinan, they had to go through her.

Tianwen Entertainment’s boss, Li Hongya, brought something to mind for Xinan. It seemed he had mentioned before that he wanted to cast her in a movie...

Xinan asked, "When?"

"Tomorrow at seven o’clock."

"Okay, tell him I’ll be there," she said.

She had no acting opportunities at the moment, so maybe this was a chance.

Suddenly her phone "dinged" again, and Xinan thought it might be Ding Lan’s reply, but when she checked, she found it was a message from Cheng Yi.

He’s still up this late?

Cheng Yi: "Are you free tomorrow?"
