Chapter 76: Chapter 73: Just Sent Her Back Home

Yu Bao heard the exploding anger on the other end of the phone. He held the receiver at a distance for a while before finally speaking. "President Qi, I apologize. It was already late, so I went ahead and took her home."

"..." There was a moment of silence from the other end. A striking and bewitching face shone with a dark light. He was really angry!

He held the phone for a good while without saying anything further.

Yu Bao didn’t dare to hang up and cautiously asked, "President Qi, are you...all right?"

"Tomorrow, you go pick her up and bring her straight to my office," Qi Longbing stated indifferently before promptly hanging up.

"Okay."

Qi Longbing lifted his head to gaze at the light of the crescent moon. It was surely the most beautiful in color and brightness.

Regrettably, the night was deep. He had no one to accompany him, no one to stay by his side. Only loneliness still haunted his soul, pulling painfully at his nerves and preventing him from finding rest.

The night wind tousled the hair at his temples, making his face look even more disheveled. His heart was full of thoughts he wished to express but couldn’t find the words for.

Something came to Qi Longbing’s mind. He said nothing more and turned to enter the villa. He went directly through the side door to his car and then drove alone to the peak of the mysterious tower.

There, things were already different from usual.

Qi Longbing pressed a button. The entire tower top lit up with stars from the inside out, and waves of silver mist and clouds, like the Milky Way, occasionally drifted by.

It felt as though he was completely immersed in the cosmic sky, merging with the night and the stars into one.

Unfortunately, this night was destined to be without anyone to share these feelings with him.

Qi Longbing’s gaze fell heavily on the prominent oil painting on the tower wall, "Venus and War God," and the nearby armless statue of Venus.

He remembered that Hua Xiaomo had taken a great liking to these two items at the exhibition, so he had instructed Yu Bao to purchase them. Then, he had specially arranged the tower top in advance, allowing the light of the starry clouds to surround these two objects.

He thought about how beautiful it would have been to stand amidst it together, appreciating the things she loved.

But now, she was gone, and it all came to nothing.

His blue eyes carried an inexplicable sorrow. His thoughts twirled with a faint pain, but it wasn’t too intense.

He could still clearly remember the words she had said: "President Qi, are you very lonely?"

Loneliness...

Hadn’t he long grown accustomed to loneliness?

Su Yuner had left without notice, vanishing for ten years. She hadn’t left anything behind, even taking his heart with her. His surface cynicism couldn’t hide the loneliness of his soul.

He no longer needed any such feelings. With this thought, Qi Longbing’s lips twisted into a seductive smile as he walked toward the Venus statue and observed it closely.

He looked for a long time. For some reason, the image of Hua Xiaomo’s face kept appearing in his mind. It was so deeply etched there that he couldn’t even recall Su Yuner’s face.

Indeed, he had long forgotten what Su Yuner looked like.Who did she think she was?Did she believe he couldn’t live without her?

Heh, as it turned out, she was wrong—Qi Longbing was indeed living well!

That Su Yuner from before had truly hurt him. She was his first love, yet she had dealt him a significant blow. He had been sincerely devoted to her. However, Song Yuner’s treatment of him was indescribable, and in the end, she too left him.

He still remembered what he had said to Su Yuner as she left—words intended to make her forget him. He had told her not to think about him anymore. In short, he was resolved that they would never be together again.

Was Su Yuner really that heartless? It made him so angry, but what could he do? Perhaps she had fallen for someone else, or maybe there was another reason. But she never explained, just disappeared without a word.
