Chapter 45: Chapter 44 Life
"Hello, so you’ve run out of things to say? Let
tell you, next ti you brag to , make it a little more believable, especially when you talk about President Xu. Such a pure and noble woman, and a company president at that. Do you really think that soone like you could be with her?" He Fangqing delighted in taking jabs at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei responded casually, "Why not? After all, you, Director He, also call
in the dead of night, don’t you?"
He Fangqing was so choked up by Li Yifei’s remark that she imdiately retorted bitterly, "You jerk, how dare you bring that up, what was going on with you today?"
"What happened to
today?" Li Yifei asked, truly puzzled.
Still acting dumb? What did you do to
in the elevator today? You scoundrel, pervert, you’re shaless, utterly despicable."
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Director He, I really can’t be blad for that. The elevator was as packed as sticky rice dumplings, it was impossible not to be pressed against you."
"But you... shouldn’t have done that."
Her words were incredibly suggestive, stirring sothing in Li Yifei’s heart. He smiled and said, "With a beauty like Director He in my arms, if I didn’t react, then I definitely wouldn’t be a man. It’s simply that your charm is too great, you can’t bla
for that."
"Oh, cut it out with your smooth talk."
"Heh heh."
"Ah, you despicable rogue, don’t you dare say another word, or I’ll really get angry." What she ant was that she wasn’t actually angry right now.
Li Yifei didn’t continue to tease her. After all, he was at Xu Yingying’s house, and he could hear Xu Yingying’s footsteps coming this way. Even if she didn’t enter his room, she might be going to take a shower or sothing. If she heard him talking about He Fangqing, it wouldn’t be good.
"Alright, alright, I’ll stop. So, Director He, can you finally tell
why you called?"
He Fangqing snorted and said, "I called to warn you. You need to show
so respect at the company, and you can’t have any inappropriate behavior, let alone make casual remarks. Especially in the elevator, you are not allowed to... take advantage of , or else I won’t let you off the hook."
"Alright, alright, I’ll regard you as my superior in my heart and definitely treat you like a subordinate facing their director on the outside. Are you satisfied now?"
"That’s more like it, I’m not going to talk to you anymore. I’m going to sleep." With that, He Fangqing hung up the phone promptly. Although it seed she spent most of her ti today chatting with Li Yifei, even if they discussed serious matters, it ended up being inconsequential.
Now, Li Yifei truly couldn’t fathom He Fangqing’s thoughts. Why did it feel like she was flirting with him? If she really fell for him and clung to him, that would be troubleso. He decided it was better to keep his distance from her to avoid further complications.
For a beauty like He Fangqing, probably more than ninety percent of n wouldn’t refuse a flirtation, but Li Yifei belonged to the other ten percent. It wasn’t that he disliked beauties like He Fangqing, it was that he genuinely didn’t want to tie himself down to one woman at the mont.
After hanging up the phone, Li Yifei shook out the blanket and crawled into bed. But before he could lie down for two minutes, the house phone in the living room started ringing.
Nowadays, very few households still use landline phones as almost everyone has a mobile phone. However, Xu Yingying still kept one, and Li Yifei heard Xu Fangying’s footsteps as she went to answer the phone.
"Shanshan, I’m really at a loss with you, checking in on
in the middle of the night..."
Upon hearing that, Li Yifei imdiately got up, knowing that he too would have to take the call shortly.
"Are you being annoying? Fine, I’ll get him for you. Yifei, Shanshan is looking for you."
"Coming." Li Yifei replied and got out of his room to the living room, took the phone from Xu Yingying’s hands, and cheerfully said, "Shanshan, your timing is perfect, I just got ho. If you had called even a little later, I wouldn’t have been ho, and you would have said I was faking it with your sister again."
"Wow, brother-in-law, you’re really at my sister’s place?" Xu Shanshan’s exaggerated voice ca from the other end of the line.
"With your sister, the rich lady, around, I don’t really see a reason not to co ho every day."
"How boring, how can you two be together like this? Even if you’re at ho, I don’t believe it."
"Well, there’s nothing I can do about it. Your sister and I are like a tortoise looking at a green bean—we are smitten with each other." After saying this, Li Yifei felt Xu Yingying’s glaring at him, and he imdiately realized that his words had insulted not only Xu Yingying but also himself.
"Fine then, I’ll just keep suffering. Oh my, why did you have to take a liking to my sister? Just keep letting her be single so I can worry to death."
The landline’s receiver was quite loud, so Xu Yingying also heard Xu Shanshan’s words and imdiately snatched the receiver, annoyed, and said, "You little brat, what are you talking about?"
"Hmph, it’s all because you got a boyfriend so early, making mom nag at
all the ti. If I don’t bla you, who else would I bla? Ah, I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m going back to being miserable."
Xu Yingying hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief. anwhile, Li Yifei said with a chuckle, "Does this an I can consider the mission accomplished?"
Xu Yingying shook her head, "No, you still need to stay here for the next two days. I know this girl too well. She definitely won’t give up that easily. She’s bound to call again within these two days. Only when she learns that you’re here again will she probably lose hope."
"That really is troubleso. Alright then, I’ll stay for another two days." After speaking, Li Yifei returned to his own room with a gloomy expression on his face.
At this mont, Xu Yingying really wanted to call Li Yifei back and ask him what that expression ant, but she swallowed her words. Even though she was good-looking and a company president, it didn’t an that every man would revolve around her. However, Li Yifei’s attitude was indeed quite a blow to her.
When she went to the bathroom to take a shower, she was surprised to find Li Yifei’s underwear on the washing machine. They were bought by her and were clearly dry, aning they hadn’t been washed. This left Xu Yingying sowhat speechless. The guy changed his underwear but didn’t wash them right away—did he actually expect her to do it while at her parents’ house?
She really wanted to ignore it, but the thought of unwashed underwear in her bathroom made Xu Yingying extrely uncomfortable.
"Forget it, I have washed them for him before. Besides, I need his help for sothing these next two days, so I might as well wash them." Xu Yingying consoled herself and washed Li Yifei’s underwear, but inside, she felt exceptionally aggrieved.
The night passed without incident. The next morning, the two bumped into each other in the bathroom—Li Yifei had just gone in as Xu Yingying was brushing her teeth.
"Didn’t you see I was brushing my teeth? What are you doing in here?" Xu Yingying glared at Li Yifei, her mouth full of foam.
Li Yifei stepped out, saying, "Then hurry up, I’m waiting to use the toilet."
Xu Yingying frowned. Reminded of having to share a toilet with Li Yifei, she felt extrely awkward. The thought of her bare bottom having been where Li Yifei would sit made her extrely uncomfortable, not to ntion sitting on the toilet seat after Li Yifei had sat there bare-bottod as well.
But it was an inevitability she couldn’t avoid. Xu Yingying braced herself and just endured it; she couldn’t stop Li Yifei from using the toilet in her house.
After she had finished brushing her teeth and washing her face, Xu Yingying finally left the bathroom. Li Yifei muttered, "I was about to burst," and hurriedly entered the bathroom, slamming the door shut behind him.
Seeing Li Yifei like this, Xu Yingying felt inexplicably happy. If she had known he was so desperate, she should have dawdled a bit longer.
As soon as Li Yifei ca out, she crossed her arms and said discontentedly, "Could you please sit down when you go next ti?"
"Sit down? I’m not a woman. Don’t you know n stand up to pee?" It seed to him that this woman wanted to control everything, even his bodily functions.
"I don’t care what you do elsewhere, but this is my house. When you stand... it splashes everywhere, and it’s not easy to clean up. Could you please be considerate and sit down in the future?"
"Ugh, such a hassle. Fine, fine, I’ll sit from now on. For a real man like
to stoop to sitting while peeing, it’s a tragedy."
Xu Yingying didn’t expect Li Yifei to give in so easily, and a smile appeared on her face, "Thank you. At least it will be easier on ."
"Whatever, you have too many rules. It’s better to get Shanshan’s issue sorted out soon. Then I can be free. No wonder you don’t have a boyfriend—with all these annoying habits, which man could stand it?"
Li Yifei’s comnt imdiately made Xu Yingying’s eyes widen, but she was too lazy to argue with him and went in to clean the toilet. The thought of a president like her, washing a toilet for an employee, did make her feel quite aggrieved.
At that mont, Li Yifei was standing by the door, watching Xu Yingying scrubbing with her bottom wiggling, which was quite the sight.
Just as he was enjoying the view, Xu Yingying suddenly turned around. To cover up his admiration, Li Yifei quickly said with a grin, "Heh, if the employees at our company saw you cleaning like this while I stand by watching, can you imagine their eyes popping out?"
Xu Yingying glared at Li Yifei unamusedly, "A president is also a person and has their own personal life. Can’t I do everything at ho myself?"
Li Yifei laughed heartily, "Anyway, I feel quite accomplished right now. To have a president wait on
for several days... just thinking about it makes
happy."
"Hurry up and get ready for work. If you’re late, I’ll definitely deduct your salary."
"You haven’t left yet, what’s the rush?" Li Yifei remained leisurely.
"Just a reminder, although I have a car, I won’t be taking you with . You’ll have to find your own way, either by bus or taxi."
Li Yifei’s eyes widened, "Co on, President Xu, isn’t that a bit too underhanded?"
"I can’t help it. I don’t want to provoke any gossip. You’ll just have to endure it. At most, I can reimburse you for the travel expenses these few days."
Li Yifei huffed and turned back to his room to change. With buses crowded at this hour, he certainly didn’t want to be late.
