CHAPTER XII 1

Life will only get worse after another

1

In November, Chang'an began to rain endlessly, Song Li had a tidal pimple on his body, sitting in the office and still scratching endlessly, the little girl at the next table couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Song Li, do you want to help you ask Sister Jiang for half a day off?" โ€

Song Li was stunned for a moment at first, then slowly took his hand out of his neckline and laughed dryly, "No, no." โ€

After eating at noon, Song Li sat alone in the pantry and looked at the sky, and the person who received the water behind him left, so he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and wrote seriously in Baidu, "Is the tide pimple infectious?"

When she was about to get off work, Song Li kept looking at her watch, she just called her mother in the toilet, and she didn't go home for dinner at night, and it was a pity that her mother raised her tone and an aunt in the library brought her beef from her hometown today. Xiao Pei's phone call came at this time.

Song Li looked at the mobile phone screen and suddenly lit up, his pupils dilated unconsciously, and he saw that the caller ID was Xiao Pei, and his pupils unconsciously dilated again, the mobile phone shook for a long time, and the little girl at the next table looked at Song Li several times, and Song Li remembered to answer the phone.

"I'm sorry, I'm about to get off work and I'm bothering you." Xiao Pei was very polite, Song Li let go of his heart as soon as he heard Xiao Pei's tone, fortunately, it was not a business.

"No, no, what's wrong, Mr. Xiao." Song Li covered his mobile phone and asked softly with his waist bent.

"I forgot how to make the salad you didn't make on your outing last time, I tried it a few times two days ago, but I didn't say it tasted right, and he kept clamoring to eat it, so I bothered you."

Salad?

That's right, salad!

There really is such a thing.

Song Li suddenly remembered. Last time, I didn't go on an outing, no, it should be said that when I was looking for Xiao Pei to read the document, during the lunch break, Xiao Pei made a sandwich for him, and Song Li made a salad with the ingredients on the table by the way when he was on the side, and I didn't think there was anything at the time, but I saw that the child loved to eat, and I was very happy, but I didn't expect to write down the taste at that time, and after going home, I made a noise for Xiao Pei to make it.

"Salad...... Salad, I'll ......" Song Li's brain spun quickly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred, "Mr. Xiao, I'll send it to you." โ€

"What?" Xiao Pei didn't understand.

"I'll send you the specific method on WeChat, you try again today, if it's still not right, wait for me to get better, and I'll do it again for you in two days."

"Waiting for you? Song Li, what's wrong with you? โ€

Song Li was stunned for a while, and hid it for a long time, but he still said that he had leaked, "No, it's nothing, Mr. Xiao, I am, it's just that it's been raining for the past two days, and I have some damp bumps on my body." โ€

Xiao Pei didn't speak, but Song Li still heard Xiao Pei's voice on the other end of the phone and couldn't hold back the sound of "poof" and laughing, Song Li lowered his head, and scolded himself in his heart for why he couldn't turn between stupid A and stupid C.

"Are you afraid of infecting me and no, in fact, it's okay, I'm not so careful." Xiao Pei's tone of voice was very relaxed.

"No, no, Mr. Xiao ......" Song Li still gave up, this matter, I can't explain it, Song Li scratched his head, thinking that this time he would do things well, and the two people behind would not have any friendship except for business, so he replied: "Then Mr. Xiao, you, when will you get off work?" โ€

At half past six, the office workers in the office building came out, Song Li stood in the corner of the hall on the first floor, uncomfortable, originally wanted to say hello to Xiao Pei when he got off work, but Xiao Pei said that he would come to pick her up. What Song Li couldn't understand was that Xiao Pei had been in this circle for so many years, and he should know better than himself what the words "terrible words" meant, but why did he still care so much about other people's eyes, and he had to come to pick her up and go back to his house.

The mobile phone rang, it was Mr. Xiao, Song Li asked "where is it" on the mobile phone, and looked out through the floor-to-ceiling glass in the hall, the black Mercedes-Benz stopped in the most conspicuous position, Song Li pretended to be stupid as much as possible, as if he was blind and couldn't see.

But the next thing made Song Li really realize what the true meaning of "self-inflicted" is, Xiao Pei didn't hang up the phone, but turned off the engine, opened the car door and got out of the car, and walked into the building while holding the mobile phone, Song Li instantly sobered up, his waist immediately straightened, and laughed, "Hahaha, Mr. Xiao, I saw you." Then he rushed out from behind a pillar in the hall.

Xiao Pei hung up the phone, put one hand in the pocket of his trousers, smiled, but before he could say a word, he saw Song Lifei rush out of the hall as if he was rushing, and then ran to the side of Mercedes-Benz, pulled the car door with his waist, did not open it, put the mobile phone in his ear, and fed it for a long time, but was finally woken up by Xiao Pei's "Song Li" behind him.

Song Li opened his mouth, turned around, the phone was still on his ear, Xiao Pei shook the phone that had already hung up in his hand, then took out the car key with a smile and pressed it, and opened the car door for Song Li.

Song Li was stunned in place, she didn't need to look to know the strange eyes of all kinds of men and women passing by her, she sighed slightly, and sighed in her heart, "No zuo no die (if you don't die, you won't die)" and then got into the car.

There was nothing to say all the way, and at the intersection when he was about to get home, Xiao Pei broke the silence first.

"Are you afraid of what the people in the company will say?"

"Huh?" Song Li didn't expect that at such an embarrassing moment, Xiao Pei would take out this embarrassing topic to chat.

"On the day I signed the contract, I actually heard it."

"What, what?"

"Those...... Empty words. The red light turned green, Xiao Pei stepped on the accelerator, and turned left at the intersection.

Song Li knew what Xiao Pei was talking about, in fact, not long after Song Li went to Global, there were rumors and rumors in both companies that there was a problem with the two of them, excessive, even more excessive, ugly, and even more ugly, Song Li had heard it in the single room of the women's toilet, but it was a rootless thing, so he didn't want to care, but the four words "people are terrible" are not said in vain. After listening to it for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be knots in the heart. Coupled with the kindergarten outing that she went with before, Song Li saw a familiar face as soon as she got in the car, it was the director of the finance department on the third floor of the company, her children and Xiao Pei's were not in the same kindergarten, maybe she didn't remember Song Li's name, but she must remember Song Li's appearance, because the accounts reimbursed by Jiang Yao's department were all โ–กโ–ก posted by Song Li and sent to the finance department.

Song Li lowered his head and didn't speak, he wanted to smirk twice perfunctory, but later found that he couldn't even laugh.

"You're a girl, it's hard for you. After listening to so many ugly words, it is impossible not to care. Xiao Pei continued.

"Actually, I can't comfort you, because after all, I caused you trouble." Xiao Pei said while swiping his card at the entrance of the community, "Actually, I didn't want to look for you today, but I kept asking me to find you to play with him, child, I have never been reasonable, and I can't talk about him, so I can only trouble you." โ€

Song Li turned his head and looked at Xiao Pei.

"In addition, I also want to see if you are doing lately, I haven't seen you since the last time I signed a contract." Xiao Pei's car drove downstairs to his house, and he held the steering wheel in as relaxed his tone as possible.

"Maybe it's useless for me to say anything, and it's unlikely that I won't let you care about those words, because I can't do it myself."

"Then you still drive over to pick me up today, I'll come by myself, wouldn't it be fine." Song Li lowered his head, his voice was very small, but the car was very quiet, and it was impossible for Xiao Pei not to hear it.

"I know, but I think it's impossible to make the rumors go away, but at least I can make sure that others don't bully you." Xiao Pei suddenly smiled and looked at Song Li seriously.

"What?" Song Li's eyes widened and he looked at Xiao Pei.

"Emaciated camels are bigger than horses. When I came back from the United States alone, I heard all the ugly things that were worse than this, but after all, I am still the person in charge of Chang'an District, at least from the perspective of human feelings, you still don't suffer. โ€

"You, what do you say, what......" Song Li admitted for the first time that her brain was not enough was now, she looked at Xiao Pei and chatted about reputation easily.

"Okay, no, it's been a day, if you don't go up again, I should make trouble too." Xiao Pei smiled, opened the car door, and got out of the car.
