Chapter 292: Chapter 299: Visiting Yiyi
Lin Qiong’s parents ca to help the couple with the house-buying and also to check if the two were indeed happy together. After all, the elderly had spent their lifeti’s savings, and they were quite worried that their daughter might have been tricked.
Now it seed that the couple was still very affectionate, and Li Yifei was also very caring. This reassured them even more. The only regret was that Lin Qiong had not yet conceived, which was a bit of a disappointnt. But they believed that she would eventually get pregnant after so ti.
Lin Qiong’s parents didn’t stay for long, not wanting to intrude on the couple’s private world, and they had work commitnts to return to the next day.
Once her parents had left, Lin Qiong could finally relax. She imdiately kicked Li Yifei out of her ho with such decisiveness that it left him laughing and crying at the sa ti.
In the last few days, Ye Yunzhu hadn’t called Li Yifei, which surprised him. After their last encounter, he thought it odd that she would be so silent, which felt strange.
After so thought, Li Yifei took the initiative to call Ye Yunzhu. The phone rang a few tis and then was abruptly disconnected, which made him even more puzzled, wondering if sothing had happened to her.
A while later, Ye Yunzhu called back, and Li Yifei imdiately said, "Yunzhu, is sothing wrong?"
"No, I’m in the province studying these days."
"You scared . You haven’t called these days; I thought sothing had happened to you."
"Hmph, I deliberately didn’t call you. I wanted to see if you still rember
at all."
Li Yifei broke out in a cold sweat. He had been so busy lately that he genuinely hadn’t thought of calling Ye Yunzhu, and he hastily said, "I’ve been busy these days, and sotis it’s not convenient to answer calls."
"You’re not around so woman again, are you?"
Li Yifei sweated even more because it seed he had indeed been busy with won recently.
"Hmph, I knew it. How didn’t I realize before that you were such a womanizer? If I had known, I wouldn’t have lost my virginity to you, and now I have to deal with so many rivals."
Ye Yunzhu still sounded as domineering as ever, which actually made Li Yifei feel more relaxed. He laughed and said, "Not so many. You don’t need to feel so pressured. By the way, when are you coming back?"
"A few more days. Why, do you miss ?"
"I miss you. Why don’t you sneak back?"
"Forget it. You think I’m still like before, running out of the house in the middle of the night just because you say so, to sleep with you?"
Li Yifei couldn’t help laughing out loud. Back in high school after they had their first secret escapade, they relished such adventures. Yet, they couldn’t let their families know, so Li Yifei would often ssage Ye Yunzhu in the middle of the night, prompting her to stealthily sneak out to et him, then sneak back ho. They did this many tis without her parents finding out.
Rembering those days, they both couldn’t help but laugh. Only their na??ve and fearless youth could have driven them to such deeds.
"Alright, enough chatting. I should get back. I’m still in class," she said.
"Okay. Just so you know, I might turn off my phone sotis these days. Don’t worry; I’m doing sothing and can’t have my phone on."
"Be careful not to have an affair and get caught by soone’s husband."
"I absolutely won’t. If I were to have an affair, I’d choose soone like Yunzhu who’s not married. I wouldn’t do anything risky."
After hanging up the phone, Li Yifei still had a smile on his face. Last night he had an epiphany, realizing that whether with Su Yiyi or Ye Yunzhu, he had wanted a marriage-oriented relationship, and this inevitably made him feel more burdened.
But when it ca to marriage, no one could predict the outco. Love is also so elusive; many couples date for years without ever walking down the aisle. Whether with Ye Yunzhu or Su Yiyi, as long as he was good to them, why worry about whether they would end up together?
There were no updates on smuggling, and Li Yifei was happy to be left in peace. That was just an episode in his life, like playing a ga when bored. Finishing it too quickly would be less enjoyable; taking it slow was also good.
Tomorrow was Friday, and Xu Yingying called Li Yifei to her office in the morning. Besides Xu Yingying, He Fangqing was also present, suggesting they might discuss sothing private or a company matter.
First, Xu Yingying said, "Everyone has been working hard for a long ti, and the company is gradually getting on track. To boost employee morale, I’m considering taking everyone to the beach this weekend. What do you guys think?"
"That’s a good suggestion," He Fangqing imdiately responded. "It can make everyone feel the company’s benefits. Organizing so activities can also enhance team spirit and cohesion."
Both of them had expressed their opinions, then turned to look at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei spread his hands and said, "You are the boss and the director, so whatever you think is best."
Xu Yingying and He Fangqing knew all about Li Yifei’s ways and both rolled their eyes at him before discussing where to go for fun. However, since neither of them was from Mile City, when it ca to deciding on a play spot, they both looked to Li Yifei for suggestions.
Li Yifei laughed and said, "Let’s go to the island, the sa one Su ngxin and I visited last ti; the environnt there is pretty good."
Xu Yingying and He Fangqing had no objections, and Li Yifei imdiately added, "By the way, is it possible to bring along family mbers this ti?"
Xu Yingying pondered for a mont and said, "I think we can bring them, but only couples and children. Our company is full of young people; it wouldn’t be good to bring the elderly. Besides, the expense would be too great otherwise."
But He Fangqing looked at Li Yifei and asked, "You’re not thinking of bringing that little girlfriend of yours, are you?"
Li Yifei let out a sigh and said, "I would like to, but at the mont, everyone in the company believes I’m dating Michelle. If I bring Yiyi along, how would that look to everyone else?"
The upcoming weekend was supposed to be spent with Yiyi, but it seed it would be ruined now. His eyes flickered, and Li Yifei said with a cheeky grin, "Can I take a leave and not go?"
"No way!" He Fangqing and Xu Yingying imdiately refused in unison.
Li Yifei rolled his eyes and said, "Fine, if you say no, then no. Why are both of you shouting?"
Xu Yingying and He Fangqing shared a smile. Xu Yingying then said, "This is a company group activity. Not to ntion you’re the president, even as the Human Resources Manager, you still have to organize the folks in your Human Resources Departnt. Just give up on it."
Li Yifei said in a dejected tone, "Why do I feel like you two are doing this on purpose, just to prevent
from spending the weekend with Yiyi?"
Xu Yingying crossed her arms and stated, "That’s exactly what I’m thinking. Do you have a problem with that?"
Li Yifei chuckled, wrapped an arm around He Fangqing’s shoulders, and said, "Then let Fangqing compensate ."
He Fangqing imdiately struggled. Even if Xu Yingying approved of her relationship with Li Yifei, she couldn’t cope with Li Yifei being so presumptuous in front of Xu Yingying and urged, "You should let Yingying compensate you instead."
Seeing Li Yifei flirt with He Fangqing right in front of her, Xu Yingying felt sowhat displeased and gave Li Yifei a disapproving look, saying, "Can’t you be a bit more decent?"
"Sorry, I don’t know how," Li Yifei continued to tease Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying snorted and said, "Fine then, carry on with your performance; I’ll just watch."
This stunned Li Yifei, who reluctantly let go of He Fangqing and said, "I don’t want to give you a Live Erotic Performance."
He Fangqing, even more embarrassed, quickly stood up and adjusted her clothes, saying, "Keep dreaming, I would never agree to that."
Xu Yingying smiled proudly and said, "You have to wait before you can compete with ."
After a bout of laughter and teasing, Li Yifei left Xu Yingying’s office. Xu Yingying then started arranging the event. Before long, waves of excitent erupted throughout the company. Company-sponsored trips were a great benefit, and everyone was excited.
anwhile, Li Yifei had already dialed Su Yiyi’s number. Unable to spend the weekend with Su Yiyi would surely disappoint her, so he was determined to make it up to her today.
"Brother Li!" Su Yiyi answered the call, her voice filled with surprise and sweetness.
"Yiyi, do you have plans tonight?"
"I—" Just as Su Yiyi was about to speak, a burst of girlish laughter ca from the background, followed by a girl’s voice reaching Li Yifei through the phone, "Hey brother-in-law, since you’ve taken our Yiyi sister, shouldn’t you treat us to a al?"
Li Yifei recognized the voice as belonging to Su Yiyi’s classmate Xiao Ning and replied with a laugh, "Sure, I’ll take you all out for dinner tonight, but you must co."
"Great, then co pick us up; we’re just figuring out where to eat."
Su Yiyi then snatched back the phone and hurriedly said, "Brother Li, don’t listen to my roommate’s nonsense; they just like to joke around, don’t mind them."
Li Yifei laughed and replied, "I’ve already promised them, how could I not go? Wouldn’t that make you lose face?"
"But you’re so busy with work."
"Regardless of the work, I still need to spend ti with my girlfriend, right? Give
half an hour, and I should be able to reach your school, so wait for
at the school gate."
Su Yiyi hung up the phone, her cheeks flushed, feeling sweeter than if she’d eaten honey. She was increasingly aware of Li Yifei’s affection for her.
