gentle fall

The old man of the Pei family didn't come down to talk until very late. The recent environment is not good, and the business of the Pei family has also been affected. It seems that he is in a hurry to urge the two to get married, which is helping each other.

Ji Yirou went upstairs to pack her luggage. Wen Huaiyu stayed in the living room for a while. After a long time, she felt sleepy. She yawned lightly, and the TV became boring. Feng Pei Songxi came down the stairs.

Pei Songxi was wearing a moon-white long windbreaker, with a cold face, a graceful posture, and no smile on his face: "Miss Wen, do you have time to talk?"

Wen Huaiyu swept the broken hair from his ears, and said briskly, "Go talk in the yard."

In fact, it was nothing more than what the two of them said in the company last time.

Wen Huaiyu was a little lacking in interest, and he was no longer polite: "Speak up if you have something to say. Pei Songxi, although I don't deal with you, you know how I am."

Pei Songxi nodded lightly: "I never planned to go around with you. Last time I arranged for my assistant to talk to you, but you didn't want to talk to her and asked someone to see you off. I think you still owe me an explanation."

Hearing her mention that assistant, Wen Huaiyu was a little annoyed, but he couldn't tell the real reason, and came up with a high-sounding reason: "You asked me to talk to your assistant about this kind of thing, Pei Songxi, don't you think there is something wrong with you? "

The two faced each other tit for tat, and neither of them would give in. In the end, Pei Songxi let out a sigh of relief: "Forget it."

This time, she was asking for something, so she was willing to give in.

"I made a bad arrangement last time, so please don't worry about it, Miss Wen."

Wen Huaiyu sneered: "It's rare to see you give in. Tell me. I want valuable information, otherwise I won't help you."

Pei Songxi straightened his sleeves, his expression was lighter than the clouds in the clear sky, but the words he said were like thunder, and instantly exploded in people's hearts: "Your second brother, apart from buying shares everywhere and being calculated by you, it seems Take a core document of your company and give it to other companies, your competitors."

Wen Huaiyu frowned: "How dare he!"

Pei Songxi remained indifferent, as if everything had nothing to do with her: "I have already shown my sincerity."

Wen Huaiyu pursed his lower lip and sneered: "Okay. Deal."

"When did you announce your divorce?"

"tomorrow."

"Suddenly so anxious? Because... Yu Mian?"

Pei Songxi's cold eyes loosened silently, but her words were still indifferent: "No. It has nothing to do with her."

She just thought that her little girl was sick in the hospital and was buried in the quilt secretly crying at night, and she felt that this dispensable marriage contract could no longer be tolerated, and she couldn't bear it any longer. waited.

Her expression was indifferent, her brows and eyes were cold as usual, but her eyes were clean and determined.

Wen Huaiyu used to always dislike her, but this time he rarely felt that she did a good job. He smiled meaningfully, as if he didn't believe her answer.

Having finished the business, Pei Songxi had no intention of saying more, and nodded slightly to her: "Goodbye."

Wen Huaiyu rubbed the center of his brows, and called her from behind: "Pei Songxi. You broke such a big news for me, and now you want me to make all preparations for your decision to retire within 24 hours. You are not afraid that I will come out." question?"

Pei Songxi stopped when he heard the words, and showed a rare smile: "You can't. Apart from myself, the only person who can do this is you."

Wen Huaiyu also laughed when he heard the words: "Then thank you, Mr. Pei, for your appreciation."

If it wasn't for the different positions and the ties and conflicts of family interests, she and Pei Songxi should be able to become good friends, instead of testing each other and being on guard all the time like they are now.

But in times of real crisis, they are the only trusted collaborators for each other.

"Pleasant to work with."

Pei Songxi nodded reservedly and left.

Wen Huaiyu stood where he was and didn't go in.

The setting sun in late autumn was half falling into the clouds, the brilliance was grand and bright, the red glow spread across the sky, spreading from a distance, the maple leaves in the yard were red, warm and pure, but she looked at it, but felt her heart sinking.

Power struggles are inevitable, but when this kind of struggle takes place within a family, it is always tiresome.

This night, she was a little preoccupied, Ji Yirou packed her luggage, seeing her like this, guessed that she was worrying about the company, but she didn't say anything, she didn't ask, she just wrapped her in her arms, The two fell asleep together.

The next day, Wen Huaiyu woke up very early, looked at the time, it was just five o'clock.She quietly lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, but was grabbed by the arms and fell into a warm embrace.

Ji Yirou's voice was full of sleepiness: "Don't leave. Sleep with me for a while."

Wen Huaiyu didn't move. Using the faint light, he traced the outline of her facial features with his eyes, and said hello very lightly.

Just like that, half an hour later, Ji Yirou buried herself in her arms, moved slightly, and woke up, with a soft voice: "Why did you wake up so early?"

"Can't sleep."

"Hmm... what are you thinking about?"

"Pei Songxi is going to break off the engagement with my eldest brother, and I'm going to break off the engagement this morning."

"Ok?"

Ji Yirou was startled, blinked her eyes, the sleepiness disappeared, her eyes were clean and clear: "Today? But yesterday, didn't Mr. Pei chat with Grandpa for a long time, and want them to get married as soon as possible?"

"It's because the Pei family is so anxious that she has to take action."

Ji Yirou pondered for a moment: "It's not a bad thing for you that she retired the engagement. Then you have something to do this morning, so you don't have to send me to the airport."

"No, I'll use you first. Your flight is quite early, so I can come back in time."

Ji Yirou pecked her lips: "No need. I can go by myself, you don't have to work too hard."

Wen Huaiyu disagreed, met her gentle and firm gaze, but was speechless.

She took a deep breath, under the quilt, no, the whole room was filled with the smell of Ji Yirou, gentle, peaceful, strand by strand, quietly surrounding her, making her indulge unconsciously.

She couldn't help wrinkling her nose, and said aggrievedly, "What perfume and shower gel do you use, I want to use the same one as you."

The person you like is not around, as if you smell a familiar smell, you can deceive yourself.

"I don't use any perfume, and the body wash is the blue bottle, which I often use."

Ji Yirou rubbed her hair, liking the nostalgia and dependence she showed unconsciously, this is a kind of proof that her feelings are not always a one-man show alone.

Wen Huaiyu's lips moved again and again, as if he still wanted to see her off, but in the end he decided to forget it. He ate breakfast with her, sent her to the gate, watched her get into the car, and waved to her through the window. It's going to come down all at once.

For the first time, she knew that she was so fragile.

The man was still smiling, with gentle brows and affectionate eyes. He pointed at her mobile phone and waved his hand.

Wen Huaiyu took a light breath, tears rolled in his eyes, finally held back, tried to smile, watched the window of the car rolled up, blocking her sight, and then, the car raised dust, like a tail of swimmers The fish drove onto the main road and disappeared at the end.

For many years, she never stood still and watched others leave.

Perhaps it was those things in the past that left a deep impression on her. She will never forget the phone call from her adoptive father, and the almost humble tone when she begged her to see him, and she will never forget the animal she held in the hospital. The hand that has lost the temperature has experienced the pain of parting in the world too early, so that for a long, long time, she was afraid of parting and seeing off.

I don't know if that person is far away.

I wonder if that person will miss her.

She was a little overwhelmed by the sudden emotion. She stood outside the gate and stared blankly for a long time before she managed to calm herself down and walked into the yard. She saw that the red maple tree was covered with light hoarfrost, adding to the bleakness of late autumn.

There wasn't much time left for her to grieve, and soon, Zhou Ran called. Pei Songxi publicly announced in the newspaper that she had broken off her engagement with the Wen family. Afterwards, Mr. Pei also published in the newspaper that he had broken off his father's marriage contract with her. female relationship.

The Pei family has always been ranked first in the business world alongside the Wen family, and has accumulated countless wealth over the years. The marriage between the two families, as anyone with a discerning eye knows, is a choice that benefits each other and maximizes benefits.Now a statement of resignation can be said to have completely torn up the bond that the two families had formed over the years.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone talked about the relationship between the two families and the business structure, but they didn't pay so much attention to Miss Pei and the Wen family.It's just because these two have always been low-key, rarely appear in public, and have never even accepted public interviews with reporters, and there have been no scandals in their private lives, and they are so clean that they can't be more clean.

After Wen Huaiyu heard the news, he cursed in a low voice: "That's what she said, does she have her way?"

Such a way of breaking up does not leave the two families with the slightest bit of dignity. Don't say that old man Pei is angry, even grandpa may kill her.

Zhou Ran said in a low voice: "It has already happened. Mr. Wen, do I still have a countermeasure here?"

"Forget it, you deal with it first. I'll call Pei Songxi."

Wen Huaiyu hung up the phone, stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, Pei Songxi had already called first: "You promised me that you would help me solve the problem. In return, I will clean up Wen Ming for you, so that you don't have to do it."

"No. I'll handle my family's affairs by myself. Just one thing, I ask you, Pei Songxi, do you know that what you do is damaging the reputation of the two families. In the future, the Wen family and your Pei family—"

"I know," Pei Songxi interrupted her, "but this is the only way I can go."

Wen Huaiyu said lightly: "Impossible."

Pei Songxi also smiled: "Then imagine, a person you... care about is afraid that you will get married when you are sick, but you dare not tell, and cry secretly by yourself, what would you do?"

"A person who cares a lot?"

"Then substitute your wife."

Wen Huaiyu was startled when he heard the words, and suddenly remembered the person in his heart, his eyebrows and eyes stretched silently: "I don't want to part with it."

"You will have the same choice as me, especially... this person, you have been watching her for a long time, only wanting her to be safe and happy for the rest of her life, only..."

Wen Huaiyu interrupted her: "Pei Songxi, you like your little girl so much, why don't you dare let her know?"

The other end of the phone became quiet, and only the sound of the other party's quiet breathing could be heard. After a few seconds, a woman's cold and indifferent voice came over: "I have something to do here, so hang up first."

Wen Huaiyu smiled with interest: "Don't be nervous. I won't say anything. Although I have always disliked you, but this time, I appreciate what you have done."

"Leave this matter to me."

Pei Songxi was startled by her sudden let go: "Thank you."

The corners of Wen Huaiyu's lips twitched: "You don't need to say thank you. It's just that you let me take the place... I thought about it, and suddenly felt the same."

"Ok?"

"If I were you, I would be the same."

"I don't want to let her cry."
