Qi Shao Fell in Love

Qi Si hurriedly caught his phone, while the other person reached out and caught his hand at the same time.

"Uh..."

Qi Si came back to his senses and looked up at the person he had accidentally bumped into.

"Sorry."

Once he saw the other person clearly, Qi Si froze.

"You?" It was the man he had met in the hospital parking lot that night!

This time, it wasn't under dim lighting, and he could see the man's features clearly.

Bright eyes beneath striking brows, thick eyebrows and high cheekbones, with depth and spirit in his half-lidded gaze. His sharp jawline gave him an imposing air even without anger.

When Qi Si looked up, he unexpectedly met the man's dark eyes.

He stared blankly at him, momentarily forgetting what he had wanted to say.

"Don't look at your phone while walking. It's dangerous."

Qi Si jolted, as though an electric current had run through his entire body.

He awkwardly raised a hand to rub his ear, his gaze drifting.

Damn!

Why did this voice sound even better than it had in the parking lot last time?

Had this man's voice always sounded this good?

"A message just came in. I'm not usually like this," Qi Si explained instinctively.

After hearing Qi Si's explanation, the other man said nothing. He released the hand holding Qi Si's arm, then stepped around him and entered the restroom.

Qi Si should have left, but as he watched the man's retreating back, he suddenly felt unwilling to just walk away.

In that moment of hesitation, the other man had already finished taking care of his business.

Bo Yanqi stood before the sink washing his hands. Through the mirror in front of him, he saw that Qi Si was still standing at the entrance.

He raised an eyebrow slightly and openly examined Qi Si through the mirror.

Qi Si looked up and met the man's gaze in the mirror.

Qi Si paused.

He had still been hesitating, wondering whether asking for the man's contact information after meeting him only twice would be too abrupt.

But that single exchange of looks made Qi Si decide.

Qi Si was no longer in a hurry to leave. He put away his phone and looked the man over with an open, heated gaze.

The other man leisurely washed his hands at the sink, allowing Qi Si to inspect him.

"You're a racer?" Qi Si noticed that he was wearing a custom racing suit with a logo printed on the back, but Qi Si did not recognize the team.

He was only average at racing and did not know much about the sport.

"Mm." Bo Yanqi nodded.

"Which team do you represent? Would you accept being poached?" Qi Si asked bluntly.

The other man was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting Qi Si to ask that. He could not help laughing.

He pulled out a tissue, wiped the water from his hands, and turned to look at Qi Si.

"You want to poach me?"

"Can I?"

"I'm not cheap." The man raised an eyebrow.

At those words, Qi Si's eyes lit up.

Did that mean there was a chance?

Qi Si looked at him confidently. "It's fine. I have plenty of money. Name your price!"

Perhaps Qi Si's brazenly rich expression was too amusing, because the other man laughed again.

"Are you sure? Do you know who employs me?"

"Who is it?" As long as it was not the Bo Household, Qi Si was confident he could throw enough money at him to bring him over.

"The Bo Household. Bo Yanqi."

Qi Si: "..." Damn!

Was there something wrong with Bo Yanqi's head?

He had put up ten percent of Wangjiang's development rights as the wager, yet he had gone and hired a professional racer to compete.

Wasn't that just messing with people?

"Are you sure?" Qi Si asked unwillingly.

"Mm-hm." Bo Yanqi crossed his arms and looked at Qi Si with an amused half-smile. "Do you need me to contact my boss for you?"

Qi Si smiled awkwardly. "Haha... you can give me your boss's contact information. I won't hold you up from your race."

Meeting the man's somewhat teasing gaze, Qi Si was so embarrassed he wanted to burrow into the ground.

"It's fine. I'm not in a hurry."

"Uh..."

"Weren't you going to buy me?"

Qi Si rubbed his nose. Realizing the man was deliberately teasing him, he smiled helplessly and admitted he could not afford him.

"I really do want to buy you, but your boss doesn't lack money. Unless you're willing to break your contract and come with me?"

"To be honest, I'd quite like to go with you too, but my penalty fee is very expensive. I can't afford it either." The man spread his hands.

Qi Si sighed. "Sigh~"

"Looks like we simply aren't fated to be." The man looked at Qi Si with the same regretful expression.

Qi Si immediately said, "I don't think fate is something we can't have. For example, we could add each other on Green Bubbles?"

Qi Si opened his QR code and held it out before the man.

Bo Yanqi stared at Qi Si for a long while. Just when Qi Si thought he would reject him, the man pulled out his phone and scanned Qi Si's.

With a beep, Qi Si's heart gave a sharp leap as well.

Having finally added him as a friend, Qi Si's smile instantly brightened.

"What's your name? What should I save you as?" Qi Si asked, pretending to probe for the man's name without giving himself away.

"Whatever you like." Unfortunately, the man did not take the bait.

Qi Si felt a little disappointed. He glanced at the number on the man's racing suit.

"Then I'll save you as Mr. Number 17."

Bo Yanqi raised an eyebrow. "That doesn't look like a very good nickname."

"Huh? Isn't it?" Qi Si looked at him in confusion.

"So where are the first sixteen backup options?"

It took Qi Si a moment to understand what he meant. His face immediately flushed red, and he hurriedly explained himself.

The words that slipped out were, "No, there are no backup options! You're the only option!"

Only after saying it did he realize those words seemed rather ambiguous.

"I..."

"Young Master Qi really is impressive."

Qi Si froze. "You know me?"

"Young Master Qi is so famous. How could I not know you?" Bo Yanqi played with his phone, his smile subtle.

"I'm famous?"

"Young Master Qi spends lavishly just to make a beauty smile. Who wouldn't know Young Master Qi?"

Hearing that, Qi Si could barely keep his expression under control.

He had clearly remembered the foolish things the original owner had done.

The original owner had been extremely high-profile in his pursuit of Lin Weiwei.

Every day, he either sent flowers or publicly declared his love on Weibo.

He had made sure the entire internet knew how much he liked Lin Weiwei.

That was also why Lin Weiwei had risen so smoothly.

Qi Wang was obsessed with his younger brother. As long as Qi Si asked for something, Qi Wang would generally agree.

Countless people wanted to establish ties with the Qi Household brothers, but they had previously lacked a foothold.

Now that Lin Weiwei had appeared, naturally those people would not miss the chance to extend an olive branch.

If they made Lin Weiwei happy, perhaps she would put in a few good words for them with Qi Si. Then they might be able to board the great ship that was Qi Wang.

And in reality, Qi Si had indeed made his brother suffer quite a few losses for Lin Weiwei.

"That was all a misunderstanding. I don't actually like Lin Weiwei." Qi Si felt it was necessary to clear his name before his idol.

"Oh?" Bo Yanqi raised an eyebrow.

If he had not seen wrong, was this little fellow trying to pursue him now?
