Chapter 121
"Don't bathe tonight, and if you're feeling unwell, remember to go to the hospital," Song Luokui said after dressing his wound. "Oh, and you should avoid spicy foods as well."
Song Luosheng put on his clothes. "Got it, Mother Hen."
Song Luokui said, "I'll call Brother Zhou Yuan to keep an eye on you."
"No need," Song Luosheng replied. "That would make me lose face as the big brother."
"As the older brother, you should set an example." Song Luokui sighed and hugged his arm. "Brother, thank you."
Song Luosheng patted her hand. "Thanks for what? I haven't done anything. In fact, it's because of me that you got hurt."
Song Luokui shook her head. "Thank you for always taking care of me, from childhood till now. Most of the time, it's been you looking after me."
Come to think of it, apart from the time when the plot master wanted to get rid of her when she was little, she had never really been harmed. At school, Song Luosheng watched over her, and even when he wasn't around, his underlings would take care of her.
After growing up, he had always supported her, whether it was with company matters or anything else. Their parents were busy with work, and while they loved her dearly, it was Song Luosheng who spent the most time with her.
Whenever she had a slight cold or fever, he was the one who worried the most. "Brother, you're the best and the most handsome. Even if I do end up getting a boyfriend in the future, you'll still be the most handsome in my heart. Remember what I said."
Song Luosheng said, "Wait a minute... Luokui, you didn't secretly get yourself a boyfriend, did you?"
Song Luokui blinked. "...Brother, I was complimenting you."
"Alright then. Luokui is also the most beautiful and obedient child in her brother's heart."
Song Luokui immediately took out her phone and called Zhou Yuan. "Hello? Brother Zhou Yuan."
"Ah, it's little sister Luokui. What's up?"
Song Luokui said, "My brother got injured on his back today. Could you please take care of him for the next few days? Don't let him eat spicy foods or drink alcohol, and don't let him overwork himself."
"Ah? What happened to the boss? Was he attacked by some scoundrel for revenge? Wait, let me gather the brothers..."
Song Luokui shouted, "...Calm down!"
Zhou Yuan said, "...Tell me, Luokui."
Song Luokui said, "My brother's fine, it has nothing to do with outsiders. Just take care of him."
"Alright. Don't worry, little sister Luokui. I'll take good care of the boss."
"Thank you."
...
After leaving Song Luosheng's room, Song Luokui returned to her own room and called Chi Yu. "I never thought my dad would hit my brother. It wasn't even my brother's fault, but I can't say my dad was wrong either..."
Song Luokui sighed. "This family can't survive without me."
Chi Yu said, "I can't survive without you either."
Song Luokui laughed. "Don't sweet-talk me again. I know several companies were behind the previous rumors, and there were even people online saying your company was involved, but I believe you."
Chi Yu was relieved that she trusted him. "Yeah, it wasn't my doing."
Song Luokui asked, "What are you up to now?"
Chi Yu replied, "I'm at Chunwang Mansion, missing you."
"I'll be back at Chunwang Mansion tomorrow."
"Good. Shall we have dinner together?"
"Yeah."
...
The next day, Lin Xingyan, who had come to work with Song Luosheng, said, "Boss, I found that Shanyu Group is also trying to acquire Explosive Entertainment and a few other small studios. And I discovered that they were also involved in reporting these companies." 𝐟r𝗲𝚎𝚠e𝐛no𝘃𝗲𝐥.c𝗼m
Song Luosheng immediately looked up. "What's their connection to this? Did they do anything related to the previous rumors? Is this matter related to them?"
Initially, Song Luosheng had suspected Shanyu Group's involvement, but the investigation revealed nothing.
Lin Xingyan said, "No, that's not it. Look at this." He handed his phone to Song Luosheng to show him a video.
In the video, someone was interviewing a department head from Shanyu Group. "Songhua has always been a competitor of Shanyu. What's your take on the current online comments about the Songhua CEO?"
The department head replied, "Regarding this matter, we don't believe the rumors. And this is Shanyu, please ask questions related to Shanyu. Thank you."
Lin Xingyan said, "They're even defending us."
Song Luosheng found it odd as well. "Why would they defend us?" He felt it was good enough that they weren't sabotaging them.
"Never mind, you mentioned they're also acquiring those entertainment media companies?"
"Yes."
"Let's see what they're up to."
"Okay."
On the other side, Chi Yu also received similar information. "Boss, Songhua is also trying to acquire those companies."
Chi Yu pondered for a moment. "Then we'll only acquire two of them and let them have the rest."
"Understood."
In the afternoon, Chi Yu left work early. Everyone was used to it by now; if the boss left early, they could also leave on time. Not bad.
After school, Song Luokui went straight to Chunwang Mansion. Before she could even knock, the door opened.
Chi Yu took her bag. "Hungry? Dinner will be ready soon."
Song Luokui said, "Not too hungry. No rush."
Song Luokui washed her hands first, then sat on the couch. The table was already set with her favorite fruits, and the TV was playing a drama series.
Soon, a servant came to say that dinner was ready. The two of them walked to the dining table where a sumptuous and exquisite dinner awaited.
Chi Yu said, "Regarding your brother's incident, our investigation found traces of the Wei Family."
Song Luokui frowned. "Although I know my brother doesn't like Wei Qing, I'm aware they have a business partnership. Why would Wei Qing harm my brother?"
Chi Yu replied, "Partnerships and sabotage can happen simultaneously, but this time, it has nothing to do with Wei Qing."
Song Luokui said, "Huh? If not him, then who? My brother only knows him." Not to mention that person had also sent her those messages.
Chi Yu said, "Other members of the Wei Family. I think... it might be related to your father's side."
Song Luokui's brow furrowed immediately. If it was related to her father, then it could involve bigger issues.
Chi Yu said, "We haven't fully investigated it yet. Once we have more detailed information, I'll let you know."
Chi Yu smoothed her furrowed brow. "Don't worry."
"Okay, thank you."
After finishing dinner, the chef and servants cleaned up and left. Song Luokui was sitting on the living room carpet, with books on the coffee table in front of her as she was doing her homework.
Chi Yu was sitting beside her, working on his laptop.
When Song Luokui finished her homework and stretched lazily, Chi Yu closed his laptop and pulled her into his embrace. "Done?"
"Mmhm. Done," Song Luokui nestled in his arms.
Chi Yu: "Shall we watch TV?"
"Sure."
They turned on the TV, randomly playing a popular drama series. Song Luokui was initially watching intently, but soon Chi Yu pulled her into his arms and kissed her, reasoning that it had been a while since they last kissed.
Song Luokui: ......
