"Miss Chi, did you take a taxi here?" Out of fear that Chi Gui might be bored, Xing Gu took the initiative to start a conversation.
Chi Gui sat on a chair that Xing Gu had casually bought while purchasing cleaning supplies: "Sort of... I hitched a ride here."
Xing Gu suddenly became solemn: "It's too dangerous for you to take rides from strangers..."
Chi Gui: "Ah... It wasn't a stranger, it was Fu Si."
Hearing that name, both Xing Gu and the others were startled: "Mr. Fu is also in Nancheng?"
In Capital City, Fu Si was definitely someone everyone feared.
Not to mention the Fu Family being the top family in Capital City, with profound heritage and a vast and intricate power network that no one dares to offend.
Just talking about Fu Si, even though he looks refined, handsome, and gentle as jade, he has a heart that's pitch-black. His tactics and boldness even surpass Old Sir Fu's. Those who have offended him have never appeared in Capital City again.
And this, almost officially chosen head of the Fu Family, why does he take the initiative to contact Miss Chi? What is his purpose?
Several possibilities flashed through Xing Gu's mind as he asked in a deep voice: "Do you want me to check on him?"
Even though with his capabilities, he couldn't really find out anything about Fu Si, but concerning Miss Chi, if he reports to Old Shen...
While he was pondering, he heard Chi Gui nonchalantly say: "No need. If he really wanted to do something to me, he wouldn't have to pretend to be a hitchhiking driver."
Xing Gu thought she made a good point but still felt uneasy: "Then did he... recognize you?"
Chi Gui touched her chin, pondering: "Probably not."
She had heard about Fu Si's assessment of her.
If he had recognized her, he definitely wouldn't have struck up a conversation.
Chi Gui finished speaking, and remembering Fu Si's previous behaviors, added: "This time, he probably just took an interest based on my looks."
During her time in Capital City, she was devoted to research and medicine, only knowing Fu Si from the occasional mentions in colleague's conversations.
"Pretentious scum" and "flirtatious" were the descriptions she heard most.
