GLIHBN Chapter 79
by VolareWhen Su Shi and Chi Ye came out of the KTV, Xu Chongming had already left.
Chen Cheng was restless in the back seat. As soon as Su Shi got into the car, he hugged him from behind, “Brother, where did you go?”
Chi Ye pulled Chen Cheng’s hand off Su Shi’s neck with a sullen face, and said impolitely, “Sit properly in the back, or get out.”
Hearing this voice, Chen Cheng sobered up a bit, opened his eyes and saw Chi Ye, “Why are you here?”
Su Shi interrupted, “Sit down quickly and buckle your seatbelt.”
Chen Cheng had no choice but to obey, but his eyes were still glaring at Chi Ye, grumbling unconvinced, “Why can’t I hug my brother?”
“Little Chen, go to sleep and don’t talk.”
Chen Cheng had to shut his mouth, “Okay.”
The car was finally quiet. Su Shi concentrated on driving. Occasionally, when his hand rested on the center console, it would touch Chi Ye’s hand.
With Chen Cheng present, the two didn’t talk much. Soon they arrived at their destination. Su Shi woke Chen Cheng up, “We’re home, can you walk?”
Chen Cheng appeared to be sleeping, but he had actually been listening to Su Shi and Chi Ye’s movements the whole way.
As soon as he got out of the car, he threw up with a “wah” sound. He had actually been holding it in the whole way because he didn’t dare to throw up in Su Shi’s car.
Now, he could barely walk.
Su Shi helped him into the house, “Go to sleep quickly.”
“Okay, Brother, can I come find you this weekend?”
Su Shi thought for a moment and said, “Focus on your exams. We’ll talk about it when you have a holiday.”
Although a little disappointed, Chen Cheng was still happy. “Good night, Brother. Drive safely on the way back.”
Chen Cheng staggered forward, then stopped and turned back to call out to Su Shi, “Brother, do you really like Chi Ye?”
Su Shi turned back, “Yes, I like him.”
Chen Cheng really wanted to say that Chi Ye wasn’t good enough for you, but he didn’t dare, afraid of making Su Shi angry again.
Su Shi returned to the car and Chi Ye grabbed his hand.
Su Shi released his hand and put it on the steering wheel, “Let’s go, let’s go home first.”
Back home, Su Shi told Chi Ye everything about his dealings with Xu Chongming, in great detail.
After listening, Chi Ye said, “Cancel the contract, don’t do this project.”
Su Shi didn’t agree, “The project has already started, I’ve put my heart and soul into it, I can’t give up halfway.”
Chi Ye said somewhat excitedly, “I’ll pay the penalty for breach of contract.”
Su Shi was distressed about the money, but not entirely. He patiently explained to Chi Ye.
“It’s not just about the money. The studio’s reputation is built up case by case. The original client for this project is someone I’ve wanted to work with for a long time. I can’t let the studio get a reputation for being untrustworthy.”
Chi Ye said even more excitedly, “But I don’t want you to see Xu Chongming.”
Su Shi raised his chin to look at Chi Ye, with a sparkle in his eyes, “Don’t you trust me?”
Chi Ye grabbed his shoulders, his tone a little anxious, “I trust you, but I don’t trust Xu Chongming, he wants to snatch you away from me.”
Su Shi did know that Xu Chongming’s motives were impure and that he had been trying to provoke him, but Su Shi was confident that he wouldn’t be affected by Xu Chongming.
Su Shi tried to make Chi Ye believe in himself, “Chi Ye, I’m not someone who can be snatched away. Just like I’m with you, it’s because I like you, not because you snatched me away from Xu Chongming.”
Chi Ye didn’t think so. He had once been a thief coveting Su Shi, lurking by Su Shi’s side, waiting for an opportunity to move, seizing every opportunity to rise to the top.
Xu Chongming was now clearly trying to follow his old path. He had to defend himself strictly and not give Xu Chongming any chance. He had to keep Su Shi firmly by his side.
“I don’t agree, cancel the contract, cancel it tomorrow.” Chi Ye’s tone was unquestionable.
Since they had been together, Chi Ye had never spoken harshly to Su Shi. Most of the time, he spoke softly and gently, often giving Su Shi the feeling of coaxing a child.
This was the first time Chi Ye had been so fierce.
Su Shi was not used to confronting Chi Ye like this, and his temper flared up, “I won’t cancel it.”
So, Chi Ye’s tone became heavier, “I’ll ask you one last time, are you canceling the contract or not?”
Chi Ye’s attitude was too tough, like a threat, and Su Shi felt even angrier. His voice also rose, and he argued with Chi Ye, “This is my studio’s project, not yours. I have the final say.”
This was the first time since they had been together that they had been so at odds.
Chi Ye grabbed Su Shi’s arm, his expression a little crazy, “Are you going to abandon me and go back to him, are you?”
Su Shi couldn’t believe that Chi Ye would say such a thing, it was simply being unreasonable.
Song Qingyan had once said that if you don’t win the first argument, you probably won’t win any later ones.
Su Shi wanted to win the argument, but Chi Ye wouldn’t listen to anything.
He wanted to calm down first and pushed Chi Ye towards the door, “Get out, I don’t want to see you right now.”
“Su Shi, don’t make trouble.” Chi Ye refused to go out.
“I’m not making trouble with you.”
Su Shi was quite strong when he got angry. Seeing that he was about to be pushed out the door, Chi Ye could only try to steady himself.
When Su Shi and Chi Ye were pushing each other, his ankle accidentally hit a flower stand next to him, and he staggered.
Chi Ye subconsciously reached out to pull him, and his arm hit a glass jar on top of the flower stand.
With a crisp crash, the glass jar shattered, and the golden ginkgo leaves inside were scattered all over the floor.
Su Shi was stunned, staring fixedly at the golden color on the ground.
These were the ginkgo leaves brought back from Mu Se Village, a collection from a winter, and they were now shattered.
A trace of panic flashed in Chi Ye’s eyes. “I’m sorry, I accidentally touched it.”
Su Shi pushed Chi Ye out again, and this time Chi Ye didn’t resist.
Su Shi locked the door and fell on the bed, his head buzzing.
After a while, when he had calmed down, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Song Qingyan.
[Yanyan, how do you and Qiao Yu make up after arguing?]
It was so late now, and he thought Song Qingyan wouldn’t reply until tomorrow, but unexpectedly, this guy replied instantly.
[What’s the situation, you and Chi Ye had a fight?]
Su Shi had to cheer up and reply to Song Qingyan.
[Yeah, over a little thing, he was fierce to me]
Song Qingyan kept showing that the other party was typing, and after waiting for a long time, she replied.
[He was fierce to you, so you argued with him?]
Su Shi: [Didn’t you say that you have to win the first argument?]
Song Qingyan: [That depends on what it is, tell me about it, and I’ll judge]
Su Shi then sent everything that happened today to Song Qingyan in a voice message. After speaking, he felt that his confidence was not as strong as before.
He weakly asked: [It’s not my fault, right?]
Song Qingyan sent Su Shi an emoticon of crying with his head in his hands, followed by [It’s still not your fault, bro? You shouldn’t have been seeing Xu Chongming behind Chi Ye’s back]
Su Shi pouted and typed a line of words. [What should I do, I’ve already kicked Chi Ye out of the room]
Song Qingyan sent a thumbs up, [You’re awesome, you’re really awesome]
Su Shi: [Don’t tease me, I’m so annoyed]
Actually, Su Shi had started to regret it after arguing with Chi Ye.
Su Shi was never an unreasonable person, nor was he such an irrational person. He didn’t know why, but in front of Chi Ye, he had become like this.

Su Shi asked Song Qingyan what to do.
Su Shi has always not been an unreasonable person, nor has been so irrational, why in Chi Ye’s front side, it became like this.
Su Shi: [Then what do I do now, do I apologize now?]
Song Qingyan: [That’s really embarrassing, this way, you pretend to go out to drink water, run into Chi Ye, if he talks to you, you go down the stairs and make up, it’s so cold to sleep alone]
Su Shi: [Okay]
Su Shi turned off the phone, picked up the cup on the bedside table, poured out the water that had not been drunk in the cup, and walked out of the room.
It was dark outside, it seemed that Chi Ye had returned to the previous room.
Su Shi went downstairs and deliberately made a lot of noise, wanting to lure out Chi Ye, but it was quiet.
Su Shi had to thicken his face and knock on Chi Ye’s door, no one answered inside, Su Shi twisted the doorknob and pushed the door in.
Taking advantage of the light outside the window, he saw that the bed was empty, Su Shi suddenly panicked.
Turned on the lights to make sure that there was no one in the room, went out and turned on all the lights in the living room, and shouted twice, “Chi Ye, Chi Ye.”
Still no one answered, Su Shi was a little anxious, and did not expect that the first quarrel, Chi Ye ran away from home.
Going upstairs back to the room, Su Shi told Song Qingyan that he could not find Chi Ye, and Song Qingyan was surprised.
[Chi Ye is so awesome, the young man is so angry, let you act dead]
Su Shi was speechless, [Don’t tease me, I’m so annoyed]
In fact, after arguing with Chi Ye, Su Shi began to regret it.
Su Shi has never been an unreasonable person, nor has he been so irrational, and I do not know why, in front of Chi Ye, he became like this.
