Meng Sheng and Shang Bo Yu have been in love for three years and married for three years. They were inseparable, and he loved her dearly, treating her with warmth and gentleness.
Until one da...
When Pei Sui saw Fu Chen coming out of the elevator, his brows slightly furrowed, and a sharp protective color appeared in his deep eyes, but his leisurely and lazy steps did not stop.
The two met in the middle of the hall, and finally stopped one after another at a distance of two meters apart in tacit understanding.
Fu Chen was actually quite surprised to see him.
Her eyes swept over the suitcase in his hand, and she took the lead in greeting him, "Lawyer Pei, long time no see."
Pei Sui noticed at a glance that there were wet marks on his shirt and trouser legs, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He calmly withdrew his gaze, nodded slightly, and asked calmly, "Why is Professor Fu here?"
Fu Chen's voice was gentle, and there was a faint smile in his gentle eyes, "Shengsheng invited me to come back with her."
He spoke briefly and to the point, without any unnecessary explanation, but the meaning of his words was very clear.
Meng Sheng invited you?
Is this a declaration of sovereignty over him?
Oh.
Pei Sui sneered in his heart, his expression still indifferent as usual, and invited him in a calm tone with a bit of sincerity, "Is that so, Professor Fu, do you want to come over to my place and sit for a while?"
Fu Chen's eyes darkened, and the corners of his mouth raised a calm arc, "Lawyer Pei also lives here?"
"Yes, the 15th floor."
"That's a coincidence."
Fu Chen responded leisurely.
As for what is clever, that goes without saying.
They both understood the meaning.
Pei Sui pulled the corner of his lip and continued to invite as if nothing had happened, "Professor Fu, would you like to go upstairs for a cup of tea?"
He glanced at Pei Sui's handsome face, which still showed no joy, anger or any other unnecessary emotions.
Meng Sheng's beautiful and delicate face appeared in my mind, and I said calmly, "I just drank at Sheng Sheng's place.
I also saw the cat that Lawyer Pei left at Shengsheng's place. It was a Cheese, right? "
Pei Sui rubbed his fingers gently in his trouser pockets, "Well, it seems that Professor Fu knows a lot about cats."
"I can't say I understand, but my daughter likes cats, but she can't keep one, so she often watches cat videos online."
He replied casually.
After a few seconds, the huge hall suddenly became quiet.
Fu Chen knew that Pei Sui would not respond to this, and he had no intention of arguing about this topic with him here.
He looked at his watch, then back at Pei Sui. His deep voice revealed a steadiness that had been polished by time. "Thank you for inviting me today, Lawyer Pei. It's getting late now, and I have to go back to see my daughter.
Lawyer Pei just returned from a business trip and should have a good rest. I won't bother you any more. I will definitely bother you when I have time in the future."
Pei Sui's emotions did not show any ripples, he just raised his lower lip lightly, "If that's the case, then I will definitely invite you another day."
"It's a deal."
"Professor Fu, take care."
This was the sixth time the two had met. In the past they had just been acquaintances, but today was the first time they had a verbal confrontation.
It was like each of them was holding a soft knife, and everything was silently rubbed against each other, leaving no wounds on the body, but with knife marks.
But neither of them broke the window paper that indicated that they had unusual feelings for Meng Sheng.
Pei Sui didn't care, after all, he had already confessed his feelings to Meng Sheng.
Besides, we have kissed each other before.
But Fu Chen is different. He should not reveal his thoughts now, otherwise, with Meng Sheng's temper, he will definitely distance himself from him completely.
Abbreviated as "avoid suspicion".
And Pei Sui naturally would not rush to help his rival tell Meng Sheng that Fu Chen liked her.
Pei Sui turned sideways and looked back at Fu Chen's departing back. He did not move for a moment, waiting for that figure to disappear in his unusually cold and indifferent eyes before he retracted his gaze and walked to the butler's pavilion.
"Mr. Pei." The butler stood up and gestured.
Pei Sui also nodded to him politely, "Please help me swipe the card for the 11th floor."
It was not the first time that the housekeeper had swiped his card for him. Knowing that he was very familiar with Miss Meng on the 11th floor, he naturally did not refuse. He took the card and swiped it to open the elevator for him.
Pei Sui thanked him, "Thank you very much."
The butler's attitude was also respectful and polite, "Mr. Pei, you're welcome."
Pei Sui took the elevator all the way to the 11th floor, and saw the familiar door as soon as he walked out of the elevator.
It was clearly not his home, but he inexplicably felt that his heart, which had been empty for so many days, was half filled just by seeing a door.
There is only one door between me and her.
He raised his hand and rang the doorbell. The crisp "ding dong" sound spread across the short corridor outside the elevator, echoing slightly.
After Fu Chen left, Meng Sheng made an appointment on his mobile phone for two housekeepers to come to clean the house the next morning.
She changed into home clothes and was a little surprised when she heard the doorbell. When she walked to the door and saw Pei Sui on the video on the wall, the surprise on her face became even greater.
When she opened the door, the man pulling the suitcase in the video was immediately and vividly imprinted in her calm eyes.
The man stood at the door with his tall and slender figure.
The ceiling lights in the corridor cast starlight on his shoulders. His well-tailored black suit seemed to be tightly wrapped in the night fog, and his silver-gray tie with dark patterns was bent at a sharp angle below his Adam's apple.
Her fair skin makes her eyes and eyebrows look like inky mountains and rivers, and her whole body exudes a noble temperament as if ancient jade has been soaked in winter snow, with a coolness that does not allow people to get close to her.
Meng Sheng was stunned for a moment, suppressing his heart that was about to jump out of his throat, and asked, "You...you won't be back until tomorrow?"
He told her on WeChat last night that his flight would be the day after tomorrow morning and would land at Fuxi Airport in the west of the city, and he had something to discuss with his eldest brother Pei Yu.
I will probably return to the south of the city the day after tomorrow.
So now seeing him standing here, she was really surprised.
"Well, I changed the schedule temporarily."
Because he really missed her, after finishing his work in the afternoon, Pei Sui handed over the evening dinner to Nie Han, bought a new ticket and went straight back to the south of the city.
He saw that her hair was casually clipped with a clip and that she was wearing the same casual home clothes, and his brows twitched.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
Meng Sheng nodded, "Well, what about you? Have you eaten?"
Pei Sui glanced at her and whispered, "Not yet."
Meng Sheng met his intense gaze and asked, "Would you like to come in first and have something to eat with me?"
"good."
Pei Sui walked in calmly and placed the suitcase in his hand at the door.
Just as he took a few steps inside, Sisi let out an "aww" and ran over to rub against his trouser leg, meowing in a hoarse voice.
It seemed as if the howl just now was not made by it.
Meng Sheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this cat with two faces. Seeing the man bend down and pick up the cat, she said, "We don't have much food at home. We've almost finished the meal for the guests. Can I make you a bowl of noodles?"
"Entertaining guests?" Pei Sui grasped the key point and stared at her closely. "Are you referring to Fu Chen, Professor Fu?"
