Go With The Flow Of Love

Chapter Twenty (Part 1)

Translated by trungtnguyen123

On the first work day of the New Year, An Xiao Li reluctantly got dressed for work. The moment she left her bedroom, her phone rang. ‘Hello?’

Since Chu Hao Ran was in the hospital for a second time, An Xiao Li didn’t visit him or call him to ask how he was. ‘Xiao Li…’

‘Oh. Chu Hao Ran, are you well?’ An Xiao Li said politely.

‘You’re angry at me, right?’ Chu Hao Ran asked.

‘You and the others schemed to bully my best friend. What do you think, am I angry?’ An Xiao Li said.

‘Xiao Li, Qin Sang is a complicated person and is connected with my family and my friends’ families,’ Chu Hao Ran said.

‘Shut up!’ An Xiao Li yelled.

An Xiao Li couldn’t hold back. She looked down on men who did bad things and justified it using weak excuses the most. As if Chu Hao Ran was forced to do anything! He did it for his own self-interest. There was nothing to explain, the winner got to be the emperor and the loser got to be a rebel. He should look at Chen Yu Bai who did a lot of bad things but never made excuses for himself!

‘Chu Hao Ran, I’m letting you know even if you didn’t scheme against Qin Sang, I still wouldn’t like you. You said you’ll give me time to see clearly what type of person Chen Yu Bai is. I’ve seen clearly, Chen Yu Bai is more handsome than you, better than you, he’s more responsible than you and he’s more deserving to be called a man more than you. You, Qin Yang and Zheng Hao are a bunch of bastards that are cowards who bullies females! Dishonourable, repulsive and thick skinned! I don’t want to see you in this lifetime anymore!’ An Xiao Li said.

An Xiao Li hung up the phone and drank two large glasses of water to get rid of her frustrations. She walked around the house until she needed to go to the toilet. After she calmed down, she picked up her bag and left for work.

An Xiao Li arrived at work and it was the first official day that Li Wei Ran was her new CEO. She didn’t know if she should resign since she broke up with Chen Yu Bai and didn’t need to be his private secretary and she had no desire to be Li Wei Ran’s secretary either.

An Xiao Li went into Li Wei Ran’s office to tell him about her resigning. He wore an immaculate suit and didn’t look like someone who was heartbroken.

‘Isn’t your field of study IT? Why don’t you go to the Design and Programming Department? Just because you’re starting a new life, it doesn’t mean you need to stop working here,’ Li Wei Ran said.

‘Is your offer legitimate? I don’t want to owe anyone anything,’ An Xiao Li said.

‘Don’t worry, if you’re lousy at your new job, I’ll fire you myself,’ Li Wei Ran said.

Later Qin Song visited the IT company and An Xiao Li reminded him of the favour she asked him a couple of days ago that would exile him again.

An Xiao Li’s belongings were still kept at Chen Yu Bai’s house. But she didn’t dare face him again after the harsh cold threat he issued her at the banquet so she asked Qin Song to find out for her when Chen Yu Bai wasn’t at home to drive her there to get her belongings. ‘You said you’ll drive me to get my belongings.’

‘It’s only a few outfits. I’ll pay for you to replace them with new outfits,’ Qin Song suggested to save his neck from Chen Yu Bai strangling him to death.

‘No!’ An Xiao Li said. She grabbed Qin Song’s neck and shook his neck. ‘My favourite things are all at his house, I need to go get them!’

‘Ok… let go of my neck! My neck skin is about to sag. An Xiao Li, I’m letting you know since I met you, everyone has been telling me I’m fat. But I’m not fat, it’s because you pinch, pull and strangle my skin that made me look fat,’ Qin Song said to save his neck from sagging whilst he was still young.

After work Qin Song reluctantly drove An Xiao Li to Chen Yu Bai’s house to get her belongings.

Inside Chen Yu Bai’s house, Qin Song held onto his neck and panicked whilst An Xiao Li packed her belongings in her old room. ‘Hurry up!’

An Xiao Li couldn’t find her alarm clock anywhere. ‘I know, I know!’

‘If third brother finds out I drove you here, you won’t see me again for at least another decade!’ Qin Song said.

Qin Song shook his head and sighed. Suddenly Seven Up ran into An Xiao Li’s old room and jumped on An Xiao Li. Seven Up crazily licked An Xiao Li’s face. She laughed and avoided her face being licked at the same time.

Chen Yu Bai scolded Seven Up and Seven Up obediently let go of An Xiao Li. Qin Song also feared Seven Up’s master and hid behind An Xiao Li.

Chen Yu Bai wore loose pyjamas and the sleeves of his pyjama top were rolled up and revealed the bruises on his arms, which scared An Xiao Li.

An Xiao Li pretended to brush dust off her clothes. ‘I… came here to collect my things.’

Chen Yu Bai coldly looked at An Xiao Li and Qin Song retreated further back.

‘Have you seen my alarm clock? It looks like an apple. I always put it on the bedhead… but I can’t find it,’ An Xiao Li said.

An Xiao Li regretted asking about her alarm clock, because Chen Yu Bai’s expression became fiercer. But she looked closer at his eyes and it seemed like he was tired and his chin was unshaven. Even though she knew he was always alert and ready to attack if necessary, but his angry and tired state was scarier, it made her panic and a sour and bitter feeling bubbled in her heart.

Chen Yu Bai stared at An Xiao Li for a while, suddenly he grabbed her shoulder and dragged her out of her old room. Qin Song still owned a conscience and rushed to stand in front of Chen Yu Bai to stop him from killing An Xiao Li.

‘About… third brother,’ Qin Song stuttered. He didn’t want to be an indirect accomplice to a murder, because he was the one that drove An Xiao Li to Chen Yu Bai’s house. ‘Don’t be angry, she doesn’t… understand the situation.’

An Xiao Li remembered straight after the fight ended at the banquet, Chen Yu Bai was incredibly angry and warned her that if she appeared in front of him ever again, he’d make sure she was better off dead than alive. That was why she begged Qin Song to drive her to Chen Yu Bai’s house when Chen Yu Bai wasn’t home to get all her belongings.

‘You’re scared of me?’ Chen Yu Bai asked coldly.

An Xiao Li didn’t hesitate and nodded her head. But Chen Yu Bai laughed coldly before she nodded her head, he let her go and pushed her toward Qin Song.

‘Ten minutes, pack all your things and leave. This is the last time I’m warning you, don’t appear in front of me again, I’m not bluffing,’ Chen Yu Bai said and strode back to his room.

Qin Song patted his chest and exhaled. Then he remembered what Rong Yan asked him to do and followed Chen Yu Bai. ‘Second brother said that he ordered some people to keep an eye on what’s happening in the western district and they reported to second brother that there hasn’t been anything out of the ordinary that happened in the western district. So second brother asked me to ask you when you’re coming back to work-’

‘Scram!’ Chen Yu Bai boomed.

Qin Song panicked and moved back a few steps away from Chen Yu Bai.

Chen Yu Bai slammed his bedroom door shut and Qin Song took another step back and bumped into An Xiao Li. It was a gentle bump but An Xiao Li’s eyes were teary.

‘What’s there to cry about?’ Qin Song said. ‘Hurry up and pack, past ten minutes who knows how he’ll explode and at that time I won’t dare to stop him from killing you.’

An Xiao Li was scared to death and didn’t need to find her alarm clock anymore. Qin Song carried the bigger suitcase and she carried the smaller suitcase and they both ran outside like they were escaping a death sentence.
