From Runaway Bride to Global Queen-Chapter 25 - Everyone Else is a Light Bulb
Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Everyone Else is a Light Bulb
Not far away, a woman in a red long dress, her face tightly wrapped in a mask and sunglasses, was frantically waving at her.
And a tall man beside her was pulling her suitcase, seeing Feng Siyu almost jumping up, he quickly pulled her and hurried towards Qiao Yi.
“Yuanyuan baby! I’ve missed you so much…”
“Get in the car first, let’s go quickly!”
The tall man snatched the car keys from Qiao Yi’s hand, stuffed the two hugging women into the back seat together, and then drove off from the airport quickly.
“Who would have thought, just three months apart and little Tingting has grown more capable, she even knows how to touch me all over now!”
...
The man is Feng Siyu’s agent and fiancé, driving with a straight face, completely ignoring Qiao Yi’s dissatisfaction in the back seat.
Feng Siyu covered her mouth and laughed heartily, Qiao Yi looked at her and pounced to tangle together with her.
It wasn’t until the two had enough fun that they embraced each other like conjoined twins and sprawled together on the back seat.
“How long can you stay this time?”
“About a month of vacation or so, you have no idea, I was so tired this time…”
Qiao Yi hugged Feng Siyu with sympathy, kissing her cheek and comforting her quietly, which made Gu Ting, the driver in front, frustrated.
After so many years, whenever these two got together, they made everyone feel like they were the couple and everyone else was a third wheel.
Qiao Yi teased Gu Ting with a glance and poked Feng Siyu with her finger.
“This won’t do, you haven’t trained her well!”
Feng Siyu boldly told her to look, not at all embarrassed by the teasing.
“I’m waiting for you to train your Mr. Lu well and then bring him to me to see!”
Qiao Yi rolled her eyes and lay down on Feng Siyu’s bouncy thigh.
“Let’s forget about him; I’m afraid before I can train him well, I’ll be the one dying by his hands.”
Feng Siyu bent down to come closer, and Qiao Yi quickly put up her hand to block, but Feng Siyu slapped away her little paw.
“I’m asking you something important, does Mr. Lu treat you well? I heard he’s very formidable, known as the Great White Shark in the business world!”
Feng Siyu was somewhat worried about Qiao Yi, as the rumors about Lu Yanchuan were not so kind.
Qiao Yi, with her eyes closed, seemed lost in thought and did not answer Feng Siyu.
Feng Siyu thought Lu Yanchuan wasn’t treating her well, quickly helping Qiao Yi to sit up.
“Qiao Qiao, if you’ve suffered any grievances, you must tell me!”
Qiao Yi felt a slight warmth in her heart, “Don’t worry, Lu Yanchuan treats me quite well, not quite like the rumors say.”
Feng Siyu wanted to make sure numerous times that Qiao Yi wasn’t lying to her, and then she could relax.
“As long as you feel it’s okay, that’s fine. If he dares to bully you, I definitely won’t let him off!”
“You better worry about yourself first. There’s a charity event tonight that you need to attend, and you have four hours to eat, sleep, and get over jet lag.”
Feng Siyu let out a tragic cry and collapsed on Qiao Yi’s shoulder, pretending to be dead. Qiao Yi was about to tease her when her own phone rang.
She took out her phone to look, and it was a call from Lu Yanchuan.
“Where are you now?”
“What’s the matter? Is there something you need?”
The tone of Lu Yanchuan on the other end of the phone was as annoying as ever, Qiao Yi wrinkled her nose and asked back irritably.
“There’s a charity gala tonight, where are you now? I’ll come pick you up.”
Qiao Yi instinctively glanced at Feng Siyu—she had just mentioned attending the charity gala, and now Lu Yanchuan was calling about the same event. What a coincidence?
As soon as Lu Yanchuan got Qiao Yi’s location, he hung up the phone, then turned around just to see Feng Siyu looking at Qiao Yi with a peculiar expression, while quietly making strange noises.
“What are you making noises for!”
“Alas, a young woman’s heart is so difficult to keep—your husband calls once, and you’re ready to ditch your precious treasure!”
Feng Siyu teased her until she blushed, provoking Qiao Yi to pinch her several times before letting her go.
The car stopped at the Feng Family’s villa. It wasn’t too far from the Qiao Family’s house. Qiao Yi had simply told Lu Yanchuan she was at home and asked him to pick her up there.

“You go back and get some rest. I’ll probably also attend the charity gala tonight, so I’ll see you later.”
Feng Siyu and Qiao Yi reluctantly parted ways under Gu Ting’s ruthless intervention. Qiao Yi drove back to the Qiao Family to wait for Lu Yanchuan to pick her up.
“Why are you back at this time? Have you eaten yet?”
Zhao Wenjing was about to leave the house and was surprised to see Qiao Yi returning.
“Yuanyuan came back, so I just had dinner with her. Yanchuan will come to pick me up later.”
There is nowhere more comfortable than being at home!
Qiao Yi slumped on the couch and shook her feet at Zhao Wenjing as a response to her question.
Zhao Wenjing tapped Qiao Yi on the forehead and then left with her bag; her girlfriends were still waiting for her.
Qiao Yi, who had collapsed on the couch, fell asleep shortly after, and by the time she woke up, she was already lying in Lu Yanchuan’s car.
“Ah!”
Qiao Yi sat up suddenly, but bumped her forehead against the car’s roof and fell back into the seat.
Lu Yanchuan suppressed his laughter, waiting for her to recover a bit before speaking.
“I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn’t wake you up. I was planning to wake you when we arrived.”
Qiao Yi looked at Lu Yanchuan through the rearview mirror resentfully. Just because she was sleeping soundly didn’t mean he had to take her out!
It took Qiao Yi a while to overcome the pain, and her forehead was now quite red—a clear sign of just how hard she had hit it.
Shortly after, the car stopped in front of a private club. Qiao Yi and Lu Yanchuan got out, only then did she realize that this club was actually owned by Lu Yanchuan’s sister.
Qiao Yi’s gaze fell on the parking space next to them, and her expression changed subtly.
“I’ve selected the evening gown you’ll need for tonight.”
Lu Yanchuan explained, and Qiao Yi didn’t really mind, except that she saw Lu Ming’s car parked there.
Was Lu Ming here? Or had he come with Qiao Xin?
Qiao Yi really didn’t want to see Qiao Xin, but now that she was here, she didn’t want to be the one backing out.
Lu Yanchuan could swipe his face for entry at the club, bringing Qiao Yi directly to the top-floor office.
Qiao Yi had met Lu Yanchuan’s sister before, who was actually his cousin—the daughter of Old Mr. Lu’s elder brother.
When Old Mr. Lu was young, he had been married for several years without having children, so he adopted his brother’s one-month-old daughter as his own. Less than a year after the girl joined their family, Old Madam Lu became pregnant with Lu Yanchuan’s eldest brother.
After that, they had three more sons, which made Old Mr. Lu very fond of his nominal daughter and actual niece.
As soon as the elevator opened, Qiao Yi heard a gentle voice tinged with laughter.
“You little rascal, if I hadn’t called you to come over today, you probably wouldn’t have planned to visit, right?”
