Chapter 120 He Loves It So Much

Ming Group
As people left the company one after another after get off work, everyone looked relaxed and happy, as if they had been relieved.

In the elevator going down, one row stops at a single floor, and the other row stops at two floors.

The elevator stopped on the twelfth floor, and Qi Fei stepped inside. Du Lian reappeared in her sight, but he was on the phone.

"I have nothing left to say to you."

Even though Du Lian's voice was very soft in the quiet elevator, Qi Fei could still hear what he said.

Without knowing what the person on the other end of the phone said, Du Lian frowned and hung up the call.

It was clear that Du Lian's expression was sour from the moment he made the call until he hung up.

Based on what Du Lian said, Qi Fei couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that his ex-girlfriend called him?
The elevator dinged, signaling that they had arrived at the first floor. Qi Fei stepped out of the elevator on her own, knowing that Du Lian was going to the underground parking lot and wouldn't be going the same way as her.

Qi Fei had no idea that Du Lian's voice would suddenly appear in her ear as soon as she reached the company entrance.

"Qi Fei, are you blind? Can't you see me?"

"Assistant Du, shouldn't you be going to the parking lot? Why are you here?" Qi Fei looked at Du Lian with a question in her eyes.

"Someone said she was waiting for me at the company entrance."

Qi Fei's arrival is like a god-like teammate for Du Lian, and he can't let Qi Fei leave now.

"Who is it?" Qi Fei asked, even more curious.

"If you want to know, come with me."

Du Lian knew that Qi Fei was the most gossipy person, so he used this trick to attract her attention and prevent her from leaving.

Is this... convenient?

Qi Fei's mind was a little confused. The person waiting for Du Lian at the company entrance must be a friend of Du Lian, right?

What does it mean if I go with them?
If it wasn't his friend, wouldn't it be President Pei waiting for him at the company entrance?

Before Qi Fei could finish thinking, a beautiful woman in a white gauze dress and with exquisite makeup appeared in front of her and Du Lian.

"Du Lian, I heard from our former classmates that you came to Jiangcheng, so I came here specifically to see you."

The woman's voice was very pleasant and light. More importantly, Qi Fei could see that there were complex emotions in the woman's eyes when she looked at Du Lian.

"Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Qi Fei."

As soon as Du Lian finished speaking, Qi Fei was stunned for a moment, while the woman in front of her froze.

Given the current situation, even a fool could see what kind of relationship Du Lian and this beautiful woman had before. Qi Fei had seen a lot, and she knew Du Lian's intentions.

The woman forced a smile and said, "I haven't heard you have a new girlfriend."

"Now you've heard about it." Du Lian was quite calm, but he deliberately avoided looking at Zhou Sisi.

"Du Lian, you just said you were going to introduce me to an old friend. Is this the lady?"

Qi Fei quickly got into character; she was determined to help Du Lian with this favor.

She was quite curious about what kind of emotional entanglement Du Lian and the person in front of her had in the past, so that he had fabricated a current girlfriend out of thin air.

Unexpectedly, Qi Fei reacted quickly, and Du Lian admired her in his heart.

"Hello, I am Du Lian's ex-girlfriend, my name is Zhou Sisi."

Faced with the woman's generous smile, Qi Fei knew she couldn't lose, so she smiled very appropriately as well.

"You must be Sister Sisi. Du Lian mentioned you to me."

"Really? What did he say?"

"He said, 'Thank you for making me realize a lot of things. I was stupid before.'" Based on her years of experience watching melodramatic idol dramas, Qi Fei casually used a universal line to roast her ex, and she felt that this line would definitely not be used in the wrong place.

Sure enough, every word Qi Fei said precisely touched on Du Lian and Zhou Sisi's past, which made Zhou Sisi lose face.

Du Lian really admired Qi Fei; he thought she delivered every single sentence so well.

Zhou Sisi chose to ignore Qi Fei and looked at Du Lian with a cautious expression. "I am very happy that you came to see me today. Seeing you makes my trip worthwhile."

Today, Qi Fei has finally met a real-life "green tea" (a manipulative woman), so she's going to have a competition to see who's more of a "green tea."

"Du Lian, Sister Sisi came all the way from another city to see you. She went through so much trouble just to see you. I'm so touched for you. It's a pity I'm not you and can't be there to catch up with her in your place."

Du Lian was taken aback by Qi Fei's Lin Daiyu-like appearance. Wasn't she always known for her explosive temper?

However, Qi Fei couldn't figure out Zhou Sisi. How come Zhou Sisi was even more understanding than Qi Fei herself?
Seeing that Zhou Sisi was speechless for a moment, Qi Fei gave her a smile and spoke again:

"Sister Sisi, you're a guest in Jiangcheng, and I really wanted to treat you to a meal. Unfortunately, it's not a good time, as Du Lian is coming to my house for dinner today, and my parents are waiting for him."

Qi Fei almost vomited from uttering those few words of witty banter.

The story had progressed to this point, and Qi Fei grabbed Du Lian's arm and left in front of Zhou Sisi.

In the square in front of the company, only Zhou Sisi remained standing there, her gaze fixed on the departing figures of Du Lian and Qi Fei.

Now it's her turn to find Du Lian. Relying on their seven-year relationship and the fact that they almost got married, she's determined not to let him off easily.

underground parking

Of course, if you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way. Qi Fei followed Du Lian to the underground parking lot. Given how cooperative she was with Du Lian today, it would be a way for him to take her home as a form of gratitude.

"Your ex-girlfriend was quite pretty."

In front of Du Lian, Qi Fei deliberately mentioned Zhou Sisi, wanting to see how Du Lian would react without Zhou Sisi around.

Du Lian simply replied perfunctorily, "It's alright."

"Your ex-girlfriend is now contacting you, are you really not going to get back together with her?"

Qi Fei asked this question very cautiously; she just wanted to test Du Lian.

"You talk a bit too much."

Zhou Sisi has now come to Jiangcheng and appeared in front of Du Lian, which was something he never expected. He knows that there is absolutely no possibility between him and Zhou Sisi.

But seeing Zhou Sisi again still made him feel a little sad, and the past scenes were about to rush into his mind.

Du Lian's face turned sour again, even worse than it had been in the elevator. Qi Fei could even feel the struggle in Du Lian's eyes.

At this moment, Qi Fei realized that Du Lian used to be extremely fond of Zhou Sisi.

It turns out that when Du Lian said he didn't want to date, Qi Fei realized that it was just because he didn't want to date her.

A sense of frustration and unease made Qi Fei stop in her tracks. She saw no need to follow Du Lian and uncover his love for his ex.

"The play is over. That's all I can do for you today. Goodbye."

After saying this, Qi Fei turned to leave.

“You’ve followed me all this way, I’ll take you back,” Du Lian said, glancing at the place they were about to reach.

"No need, we're not going that way anyway."

Qi Fei's answer was resolute; she didn't want to get involved in other people's emotional entanglements.

If Du Lian really gets back together with his ex-girlfriend, then she'll be acting like a fool.
