Chapter XXXV 5
Song Li would not have thought that he would have a relationship with Jiang Yao.
She followed her colleagues in the unit to Shanghai on a business trip, returned to the hotel for dinner, colleagues took a bath in the bathroom, Song Li remembered what her parents told her before she came out, the money to buy a house had been made up, and Song Li was asked to return it to Xiao Pei as soon as possible, but after Xiao Pei left, the two broke off contact, and it was impossible for Song Li to find Xiao Pei, but Jiang Yao was different.
After telling the colleague who was taking a bath that he had gone out beforehand, Song Li called Jiang Yao when he arrived outside the hotel.
Jiang Yao heard someone knocking on the door, and when he looked over, he was not surprised that it was Song Li, "I thought you would come over tomorrow." ”
"There's something to do tomorrow." Song Li said.
"Come in and sit down, I'm a bit of a mess here." Jiang Yao walked through the ground covered with various documents, but there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
Song Li looked at the documents in one place and said casually, "When will the court be held?" ”
"I lost the first trial, and I just appealed, so I guess I have to wait." Jiang Yao found a place to sit on the sofa, and casually threw the documents next to him on the coffee table, motioning for Song to sit down.
"I've come to you for something." Song left the door to see the mountain.
"I know, you said it on the phone, but I probably won't help you because I don't have the energy to care about other people anymore." Jiang Yao rejected Song Li without much hesitation.
"I know," Song Li obviously came prepared, "so I asked you for help, and I didn't dare to come without a card in my hand." ”
Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows slightly, although life is difficult now, the makeup on her face has never been slack.
"The thing you asked me to carry the bag for you is nothing more than because I was on the monitor on the day I sent the USB flash drive, but don't forget, the man who was with you that day, I saw it before." Song Li felt that the sooner the two sides had a showdown, the more they would be able to meet the expectations in their hearts, "Don't forget, when I was doing things with you in the past, many contracts were made by me, and you and that ······ It should be Boss Li who sells steel, yes, I remember it's him, you have a lot of money in the partnership, just through my hands, there are not 18 million, there are 1.8 million, I can help you count the specific figures, but maybe you don't want to see it. I know you may think I'm bluffing, but I still have to be careful about doing things outside, not to trick others, but to protect myself. So, I have a backup of the files. ”
"What do you want to do?" Sure enough, this trick still worked for Jiang Yao, she put down the Erlang leg that had just been cocked, and looked at Song Li with a smile.
"I didn't want to do anything, I just wanted to ask you for a favor, but you didn't even ask about anything, and you refused me when you opened the door." Song Li smiled lightly.
"Then why didn't you jump out and prove your innocence in the first place?" Jiang Yao asked with some curiosity.
"You said, you helped me before, borrowed and repaid, and I paid you back that time." Song Li said unhurriedly.
"I thought we'd be cleared up after last time."
"Sister Jiang, I don't think anyone can really clear up this kind of thing, you can really clear it twice, what do you say?" Song Li looked at Jiang Yao's eyes, and there was no longer the fear of entering society for the first time, Jiang Yao felt that Song Li in front of him was a little strange.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Jiang Yao looked at Song Li and blinked.
"I want news from Xiao Pei." Song Li said.
"Xiao Pei?" A meaningful smile crossed Jiang Yao's face, "I thought you wanted to reconcile with Chen Xi." ”
"Call me if you have news, the sooner the better, and I don't want to delay your ······ Get down to business! Song Li got up, not wanting to catch up with her at all.
Watching Song Li leave, Jiang Yao sat there for a long time and couldn't let go, she knew why Song Li, who went to Shanghai, didn't want to see the person she wanted to see the most, for a person who once despised herself but gradually became herself, she thought that she was doing her best on the road of chasing love, but the reality often backfired. All the hard work in exchange for only one consequence, this consequence is Jiang Yao spent ten years in front of her, but walking, the original fallacy of meeting to break up was finally overturned by Song Li's own wavering heart, Jiang Yao remembered a sentence that I don't know who said, I can wake up a person who is asleep, but I can't wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Jiang Yao to tell Song Li about Xiao Pei.
A year later, Xiao Pei quit his job at GLOBAL, returned to China, and opened another company in Hangzhou with some business elites who had dealt with him, but Xiao Pei, who started his career again, the company's progress was not as smooth as expected.
Song Li felt that this seemed to be fate.
The day before leaving Shanghai, Song left the hotel where Xiao Pei was staying, and waited in the lobby for more than three hours before Xiao Pei walked out of a taxi.
Xiao Pei chatted with his fellow travelers very happily, and inadvertently saw Song Li standing in the hotel lobby, and the eyes of the two of them met with tenderness that had been polished over the years but still remained.
"Why are you here?" Xiao Pei walked up to her.
"I'm looking for you, it's a bit of a problem." Song Li said with a smile.
"Let's go to the café on the second floor, it's quieter." Xiao Pei said.
"Okay."
Xiao Pei ordered two cups of juice, afraid that Song Li would not sleep well after drinking coffee at night, "When did you come to Shanghai?" ”
"Arrived on the 3rd, the plane back to Chang'an at noon tomorrow." Song Li said, "What about you? How is it now? ”
"Since you've found me here, you should know a little bit about me." Xiao Pei quipped.
Song Li didn't refute, just lowered his head and smiled.
"I left GLOBAL, and now I have partnered with a friend to start a company, and I have been talking about investment in Shanghai for the past two days." Xiao Pei briefly talked about his recent situation, and these are not much different from what Song Li has heard.
"No, no, is he okay?" Song Li asked.
"Fortunately, the child is left to his mother, I will go to see it when I have time, but it seems that it will be more difficult after returning to China, one is far away, and the other is to open my own company, indeed, there are many things to worry about, not as good as working for others in the past."
"Well," Song Li nodded, looking at Xiao Pei, who was about to pass the year of his establishment, talking about his career but still being as high-spirited as a teenager, and he was sincerely happy for him, "Oh yes, you see I forgot what I came to you for today!" Song Li said, took out a bank card from his bag, and then pushed it to him, "This is the money for the house." ”
"Song Li, you ······"
"Don't say it, you listen to me first!" Song Li interrupted Xiao Pei's words, she lowered her head to adjust her breathing, and then looked up at him, "Originally, I wanted to transfer the money to you through your company, but I think there are some things that need to be made clear in person." First, this money is what my parents meant, we have accepted the house, but the money still has to be returned to you; Second, I want to say sorry to you, I was still a little immature at the beginning, and I didn't handle many things properly, I know that it may hurt you more or less, but I know that you don't lack my apology, but I still want to give you a sorry; Thirdly, I ······ I may not be able to help you with anything, but if you can still treat me as an ordinary friend, if you go to Chang'an in the future, just give me a call, and I will take you to eat the fast food three-piece set at the south gate of our school! Hahaha······"
Xiao Pei looked at Song Li opposite and smiled easily, knowing that she was also like her current self, she had converted her former love into friendship, no matter what position she used to be in her, the positioning of "friend" was always very gratifying to him.
"Okay." Xiao Pei looked at Song Li and said with a smile.
