Chapter 66: Tell Me When You Arrive

"Ding-dong!"

Just then, during lunch, Liu Yifei's phone, which was on the table, suddenly rang. A new text message was being sent to her phone, briefly breaking the long silence.

Since it had already been agreed upon beforehand, and Si Huajin was very likely to send her another text message soon, everyone stopped eating the moment they heard the message, looked up curiously at the phone that Liu Yifei had just picked up, and prepared to hear what she had to say.

"It's him!"

With a piece of meat still in her mouth that she hadn't fully chewed and swallowed, Liu Yifei mumbled two words and then handed her phone to Liu Chun, who was eating.

With the phone in front of him, Liu Chun glanced at the text message and quickly compared the phone number on it with the phone number on the poster of Si Huajin that he had seen at the factory.

The two phone numbers are exactly the same, so it seems that it really is him.

"This number matches the one I saw on a poster before. I can't believe he came to us before we even went to him."

Because the relationship between Liu Chun and Liu Yifei is not as close as it appears to outsiders, most people in the capital are unaware of their relationship, including Si Huajin.

Pang Wenke, Zhang Man, and the others checked again. In fact, they couldn't remember Si Huajin's phone number at all. They guessed that only Liu Chun would do something like that.

"In that case, let's quickly make preparations and arrest him in one fell swoop, so as to avoid any other troubles that might affect the final outcome."

As soon as Pang Wenke let slip the name, Liu Yifei quickly realized that they were even more excited than she was. When they heard the name "Si Huajin," Brother Zhang Man and the others reacted extremely enthusiastically, as if they couldn't wait to see him right now.

Instead of directly questioning Pang Wenke, Liu Yifei turned to Liu Chun, looking puzzled, and asked, "Brother Chun, did you already know Si Huajin?"

Liu Chun glared at Pang Wenke and quickly explained, "No, he's the only one who knows him. I've been working hard on my filming recently, how could I possibly know someone as rich as Si Huajin?"

"You know what I used to be like. Those people would run away at the mere sight of me, wishing we never knew each other and had no connection whatsoever, right?"

Only then did Liu Yifei turn to Pang Wenke: "Manager Pang, do you know him?"

Embarrassed, Pang Wenke began to explain: "Yes, I had the pleasure of meeting him once before when I was working there."

"However, from what I understand, he's already engaged to a wealthy young lady from the capital. Why is he coming to see you, Miss Liu? This person is really strange, hahaha."

"I see. Is this true?" In order not to keep causing trouble for Liu Chun, Liu Yifei secretly improved herself and aspired to be a strong woman who would not be afraid of power.

If she could learn a lot of information from Pang Wenke, she might be able to resolve this matter on her own, without making Liu Chun take any more risks for her.

Pang Wenke and Liu Chun exchanged glances for a moment, and Pang Wenke quickly explained, "I've thought about this matter, and it's true. It's just that only a very small number of people know about it, and they don't publish it openly. It's not easy for outsiders to find out about this kind of thing."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Manager Pang."

Pang Wenke blushed slightly at the compliment: "It's nothing. I'm your cousin's manager, so your problem is my problem. It's just a small favor, nothing to worry about."

In fact, Liu Yifei didn't pay much attention to what he said afterward, and directly looked at Liu Chun and said, "Brother Chun, actually, I was thinking about this..."

Having already listened to her, Liu Chun knew what she wanted to do. Before Liu Yifei could finish speaking, he had already proposed various arrangements: "Alright, you don't need to worry about this matter anymore. Your brother Pang knows the other party, so it's better for us to handle this directly with him. Yifei, are you willing to trust us?"

Due to the sensitive nature of their respective identities, Liu Yifei originally wanted to go with them to confront Si Huajin. However, she saw determination in Liu Chun's eyes, realizing that even if she insisted on going, he probably wouldn't agree.

So Liu Yifei sat there for a long time, not knowing what to reply, since insisting on being willful was probably not just a matter for one person.

After about ten minutes, Liu Yifei seemed to have finally made up her mind. She stood up and said to Liu Chun and the others, "Brother Chun, then I'll leave this to you. But I need to see the footage from the scene and stay in constant contact with you."

Actually, she didn't want to always hide behind Liu Chun. At least this way, she would still feel involved. Even if she had to refuse, she could tell Brother Chun directly and let him consider his own thoughts before rejecting the other party's request. That would be quite nice.

But then she suddenly remembered something. Before Liu Chun knew about this, she had promised the other party that they would definitely meet this time, regardless of whether the answer was "yes" or "no".

Before Liu Chun and the others could reply, Liu Yifei quickly organized her thoughts and spoke first: "Brother Chun, I still have to go with you to meet them this time. I think it might be better to personally refuse their request; it's more decisive and won't cause any unnecessary misunderstandings."

This unexpected turn of events was something Liu Chun hadn't anticipated. In the past, whenever something like this happened, as long as Liu Yifei was willing to tell him, he, her cousin, would rush to help her without hesitation, and she only needed to quietly wait at home for his good news.

Why do we absolutely have to go together this time?

Gradually, Liu Chun guessed that this was not the first time the two had met, which was why they had promised to meet in person in the future.

That wretched Si Huajin is really something...

Seeing Liu Yifei's pitying, pleading eyes, Liu Chun was at a loss and immediately declared that she had to go with him, as this was an unavoidable outcome.

"Then I'll go with Lao Pang and stay by your side. The others can just watch from the sidelines and only come out if they notice anything amiss, okay?" This was the biggest concession Liu Chun could make at the moment. If it were the old Liu Chun, he would never have agreed to her request.

"Why don't you hide too?" Liu Yifei looked at them almost pleadingly, with an unwavering determination.

Although I wouldn't have agreed to do this before, I would now—Liu Chun smiled: "Then let me know when he arrives. If things don't look right, we'll rush out; otherwise, we'll pretend we never went."

"good!"

After the decision was made and dinner was over, everyone started getting busy. Once everything was ready, Liu Yifei sent a message to Si Huajin, asking him to come out.

……

The night was chilly and windy. Before Si Huajin arrived, Liu Chun secretly gave her a hooded jacket.

After all these things were done, Si Huajin did not have a large group of guards accompanying him when he went out, nor did he have a car convoy, nor did he have the air of a domineering CEO.

On the contrary, he only had one person with him, and he was walking, wearing a suit and leather boots, and carrying no brightly colored flowers.

"He's arrived... but don't rush out yet, Chun-ge. I want to handle this myself this time."

There was a long silence on the other end of the headset. Although Liu Chun and the others were keeping a close eye on the possibility of something unexpected happening, they only replied with an "Mm" and nothing more.

"Hi! Yifei, we've finally met! I'm so excited, really."

Even from a great distance, Si Huajin had already composed herself, smiling and waving hello, and then jogging over.

Even after he got close, he didn't stop talking. Seeing that Liu Yifei's white tracksuit was also eye-catching, he took the opportunity to praise her: "Yifei truly deserves to be everyone's idol goddess! She looks good in everything she wears, just like a 'fairy sister' from heaven. Just looking at her makes people drool."

"Heh, I'll take that as a compliment." Liu Yifei turned around. "Just say what you need to say. I need to go back and rest. I don't have much time to waste here with you."

Si Huajin nodded: "Okay, then I'll get straight to the point."
