In the end, Pei Donglai could only lie on the sofa at Lin Xiaojie's house all night.
Early the next morning, Pei Donglai returned to his residence, feeling extremely bored. I'm very tired when I'm working, and I want to stop and rest. Once I'm not working, I'm really bored, either lying down or sitting.
Li Yunfeng went to Echeng, Heizi went home, Bao Desheng and Wu Jing also went back, and Pei Dong didn't even come to have a drink with anyone. When he was free, all he could think about was Zhang Yutong.
I heard Li Zixuan say before that during the Chinese New Year, Zhang Yutong was very busy and it was difficult for Pei Dong to call him.
Zhang Yutong didn't send any messages in the past two days. Maybe he was really busy. Pei Donglai could only use this reason to comfort himself.
Lin Xiaojie called a few times, but Pei Donglai didn't answer any of them. He never wanted to go to Lin Xiaojie's house again, and there was no need to please the acting chairman.
After sleeping for a day, Li Zixuan got a call at noon the next day, "Donglai, I've arrived at Jiangcheng Airport. Come pick me up."
Li Zixuan is here? Pei Donglai couldn't believe it, "Zixuan, you won't play tricks on me during the Chinese New Year, right?"
"You are sick, are you coming? If not, I will go back," Li Zixuan said breathlessly.
Pei Donglai drove to Jiangcheng Airport and saw Li Zixuan. She was alone, wearing a thick down jacket and carrying large and small bags, as if she had just returned from working out of town.
Pei Donglai couldn't help but laugh when he saw Li Zixuan's appearance, "What are you doing? Don't you know her? Come here and help, idiot."
"Zixuan, have you gained weight?" Pei Donglai looked at the ball-like Li Zixuan and asked with a smile.
Li Zixuan took advantage of the situation and kicked Pei Donglai, "Do you greet girls like this? I came here to accompany you because I felt sorry for you being alone in Jiangcheng. If I had known better, I wouldn't have come."
Li Zixuan brought a lot of food, and after the table was filled, Pei Donglai felt a bit like the New Year.
"Donglai, please heat up the food. I'll take a bath and have two drinks later. I haven't had a drink with you for a long time."
Although Zhang Yutong didn't come, Li Zixuan came, and Pei Donglai also felt happy, finally having someone to accompany him.
Pei Donglai came to the kitchen happily and started to work. These dishes were all ready-made and did not need to be processed. It took a while and they were ready.
The two sat down, and Pei Donglai was a little touched. Li Zixuan traveled thousands of miles to spend the New Year with him. She really cared about him.
"Why are you always looking at me? Let me tell you, I really haven't gained weight. I just wear thick clothes and a lot of clothes so that my figure is not visible. Don't dislike me if you dislike anyone."
"How could I dislike you? Zixuan, thank you for coming to celebrate the New Year with me. Really, thank you," Pei Donglai said seriously.
"Hey, Lao Pei, are you emotional? This is the first time I've seen you moved."
Pei Donglai picked up the wine glass and said, "Happy New Year!"
The two started drinking. When they separated last time, Li Zixuan asked Pei Dong to come find Zhang Yutong, but this time when they came back, Li Zixuan didn't mention Zhang Yutong at all during the chat.
Pei Donglai finally couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Is Yutong okay?"
Li Zixuan looked at Pei Donglai, smiled contemptuously, and said, "You are like this, and you still care about others."
"What's the meaning?"
"Dong Lai, I didn't come to Jiangcheng just to accompany you. I came here because I had a falling out with Zhang Yutong. After the new year, I don't plan to go to Chengdu. I want to go back to see my mother."
"Zixuan, what's wrong?"
"It's okay. Yutong and I are somewhat at odds with each other. If we don't get along, friction will inevitably occur."
Pei Donglai asked again, but Li Zixuan refused to tell the reason, "You guys have broken up, so take care of yourselves more and look for another one. Can't you live without Zhang Yutong?" Li Zixuan became a little angry.
Naturally, Pei Donglai couldn't ask any more questions. Indeed, during the Chinese New Year, Li Zixuan came to accompany her and kept asking her about other people's affairs. Naturally, she was unhappy.
Tonight, both of them drank a lot. Li Zixuan refused to go to bed and kept pestering Pei Dong to chat.
"Donglai, tell me, what does it feel like to fall in love with someone?"
"Zixuan, why do you ask this question?"
"I see Zhang Yutong in your eyes. Can you die for her? Can you?" Li Zixuan spoke louder and louder.
Pei Donglai did not answer her question. Li Zixuan was really drunk. He had never seen her so drunk before. There was some sadness in her eyes.
"Zixuan, are you lovelorn?"
"Are you the one who is lovelorn? Do I look like a lovelorn person? I don't even have a boyfriend, so I'm not qualified," Li Zixuan sighed.
Since he met her, Pei Donglai had never heard of Li Zixuan having a boyfriend, not even a scandal. I believe she wouldn't have even heard of it when she went to Chengdu, otherwise Zhang Yufei would have been unable to hide her mouth.
Before, Li Zixuan had some interest in Pei Donglai, but Li Zixuan also knew in her heart that Pei Donglai liked Zhang Yutong, not herself. Later, the old chairman re-employed Pei Donglai, and the relationship between the two gradually became that of brother and sister.
There is actually another reason why Pei Donglai stayed in Jiangdong Bank, which was to find out the truth about the death of the old chairman. Otherwise, he might have left long ago. Doing business with Li Yunfeng, Heizi and the others was so cool, with feasting all day and partying every night.
But fate is like this, some things are destined and you can't help it.
Li Zixuan cried as she said this. She cried very sadly. After a long time, she said: "Donglai, you can take me to have fun tomorrow. I think I will leave after the new year. I don't know when we will meet again."
Pei Donglai looked at the sad Li Zixuan and naturally felt bad. In Pei Donglai's heart, Li Zixuan was like his own sister.
The two of them were not relatives, but Li Zixuan transferred the bank's shares to herself without any scruples, which showed great trust in herself.
The next morning, when Pei Donglai was still sleeping, he was woken up by Li Zixuan, "Get up, take me to play, as promised last night." Li Zixuan was like a child making noises to Pei Donglai who was lying in bed.
"Where do you want to go? Zixuan."
Li Zixuan thought for a while and said: "It's too cold in the north, let's go to Hainan."
Pei Donglai was startled. He thought Li Zixuan just wanted to stroll nearby and didn't expect to go so far away.
"It's so far away, can I get a plane ticket?"
Li Zixuan opened a certain group and checked it out. She happened to have a flight ticket and booked it without waiting for Pei Dong to agree.
"Hurry up, we have tickets for the afternoon flight," Li Zixuan said happily.
This girl is so cool, she just went there as soon as she thought of it. This is the legendary trip that can be done at any time, which caught Pei Donglai off guard and made him envious.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the two boarded the plane to Sanya.
On the way, Li Zixuan was very excited and hummed a little tune. Pei Donglai was deeply affected by seeing her so happy.
