Chapter 303 Who's Speaking? (Su Ye Qiu Yu)

"Do you think we should ask about Xiaoyi's family situation?"

"I think the things she sent over are not simple."

"If we really get to the point of discussing marriage, we need to prepare in advance."

Mr. Su was quite open-minded about his wife's worries.

He felt it was too early to discuss this since it was only their first visit.

Moreover, there are too many variables when it comes to children's affairs. When things really come to that, Su Ye will take the initiative to tell his family the truth.

"Let them come happily and go back without any burden."

"But……"

"No buts. Put yourself in my shoes. If you were asked all these questions on your first visit to my house, would you still want to come back?" Mr. Su handed over the washed dishes. "So, don't put pressure on people."

The couple then abandoned their idea.

Unaware that he had escaped death, Shen Zhaoyi was following Su Ye, starting from the vicinity of the vegetable market he had visited that afternoon, retracing his childhood path along the streets.

“There used to be an old locust tree here. When we were kids, we often climbed up it to raid bird nests.”

"At the end of that alley, there used to be an old man who sold sugar figurines. He was very skilled."

"..."

Su Ye's voice was gentle as she recounted her childhood memories, which had been buried in the past.

Although Shen Zhaoyi was not involved in his past, she could join in as an observer.

Under the warm yellow streetlights, two figures were stretched out long.

However, this heartwarming scene was destined to be shattered.

Inside a villa in City C.

After waking up from a nap, Qiu Yu leaned against the headboard and saw Shen Zhaoyi's reply, which puzzled her.

Why did she suddenly leave S City at this critical juncture?

Is it something important, or just a trip?
Or perhaps it's because of Pei Yan, that they're putting on a show and pretending to leave to avoid suspicion?

It was at this moment that Qiu Yu realized how little she knew about her "lover".

We know almost nothing about her social circle, her daily routine, or what she is doing at any given moment.

This lack of control over information made him, who was used to taking the lead in interpersonal interactions, somewhat uneasy.

Moreover, since establishing their relationship, the two have not had much actual communication.

They're supposed to be together, but it always feels like they're less familiar and intimate than he is with Fang Zheng. (Secretary Fang: Don't mention it!)
In addition, they are located in two different places, and there are other competitors around them.

A sense of crisis surged up instantly.

Qiu Yu washed her face, and without even changing out of her pajamas, she made a video call to Shen Zhaoyi.

Since opportunities are few and far between, let's create them.

Relationships, like business, require long-term management.

If left unattended, it will inevitably fail.

In the quiet of the night in the ancient town's old streets, the sound of a WeChat ringtone was quite abrupt.

Shen Zhaoyi took it out, glanced at the name, and without intending to answer, simply hung up.

What a joke! Su Ye is right here. She doesn't want to experience that man's jealousy again last night.

But Qiuyu, being overly persistent, called a second time.

For him, this time of day is neither too early to go to bed nor too late to eat; it's a convenient time that's neither too early nor too late.

But the call was abruptly disconnected; there must be something fishy going on!

Those who finally guessed correctly were even more eager to contact Shen Zhaoyi.

Su Ye had already seen the nickname displayed on the screen a moment ago—

"With the Mountain"

Yes, even after their identities were exposed, the original nickname was not changed.

Shen Zhaoyi had gotten used to calling him by this fake name. Su Ye, who also knew about this, spoke up, "Why didn't you answer? Maybe you have something urgent to tell me?"

He said that not out of kindness.

Instead, she wanted to see what kind of person Qiu Yu was that could make the principled Shen Zhaoyi forgive him so easily.

Furthermore, there were also selfish motives.

The moment the call connects, I, who am by her side, will definitely appear on screen.

It can subtly give the other person a psychological suggestion.

Although he said he wouldn't compete, after being secretly provoked by Mu Mu yesterday, Su Ye understood a principle.

That means that honest people are only bullied when they are around Shen Zhaoyi.

Warmth also needs to be protected.

Faced with Su Ye's suggestion, Shen Zhaoyi raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"You want me to answer?"

"I don't want that," someone said, though their true feelings were mixed. "But it's rung twice already, what if something really urgent happens..."

They didn't continue, but the meaning was pretty much conveyed.

Shen Zhaoyi gave Su Ye a deep look, and just as the call was about to be automatically disconnected, she pressed the answer button.

The light here is rather dim, so I can only see a blurry outline for now.

But Qiu Yu was indoors, and her beautiful face was clearly reflected on the phone screen without her noticing.

A perfect work sculpted by God needs no special touches and is flawless.

Her eyebrows and eyes were beautiful, and her skin was pale and cool, almost glowing under the light.

The moment Su Ye saw the other person's face clearly, alarm bells went off in his mind.

As a man, he was often more critical of his aesthetic standards, but he had to admit that Qiu Yu was very beautiful, with a kind of beauty that transcended gender boundaries and was aggressive.

I should have realized it sooner; no one who could stay by Shen Zhaoyi's side could be an ordinary person.

While he was discreetly observing the other person, the light sensor here had already adjusted automatically, and Qiu Yu was finally able to see his surroundings clearly.

"Are you outside?"

"Hmm." Shen Zhaoyi nodded and cut straight to the point: "Is there something you need?"

Upon learning that there was no such offer, I prepared to hang up the phone.

"Let's talk when I get back."

"No way!" Qiu Yu definitely wouldn't listen.

If the call is finally connected but then hangs up, it's uncertain whether it will be able to be reconnected later.

He quickly racked his brains for a topic to discuss and pressed on, "Tell me first, where are you?"

"Checking up on me?"

Qiu Yu forced a smile and admitted, half-jokingly, "Let's just say it is. It's very unusual for you to leave S City at this time."

Shen Zhaoyi understood the subtext in his words and said directly, "What's so unusual about it? I have my own life, and I don't have to revolve around Pei Yan."

Realizing his good friend was being disliked, Young Master Qiu didn't get angry but laughed instead, and even echoed his sentiments with great support:

"Indeed."

"When are you going back? I'm almost done with my work and I'd like to come visit you."

These words caused Su Ye, who hadn't made any move yet, to pause slightly.

Then, seeing that Shen Zhaoyi was engrossed in a video call, he subtly pulled her closer to him, while saying at the right moment, "Be careful, there are steps ahead."

The shout, though not loud, was more abrupt than the previous ringtone.

After Qiu Yu clearly heard that it was a man's voice, she sat up straight instantly.

His eyes were fixed on the screen until he saw the image stop shaking and reveal half of his shoulder.

"Who is speaking?"
