Cheng Xuelin was originally exhausted, looking like a zombie.

When Du Lei got down to business, Cheng Xuelin seemed to have been given a shot of adrenaline.

"You don't know what our factory is producing right now."

Cheng Xuelin's eyes lit up, "Once our product hits the market, it will be one of a kind in the whole world."

"Although we are tired, we are all full of energy and would rather sleep at the company every day."

This isn't just a matter of making or not making money.

The people Cheng Xuelin recruited were all educated individuals.

They value achievement more than salary.

Back when the company was first established, Pei Zhi made a lot of promises to everyone.

At first, no one understood, but seeing the high salary, they decided to continue.

But everyone here is an educated person, as evidenced by the results they have achieved.

They also became increasingly aware of what it would mean if they succeeded.

"Where's Pei Zhi? I tried to contact her, but her phone is switched off."

"Then she should be at the factory. The factory is afraid of affecting the signal, so she has to turn off her phone if she goes in."

Du Lei felt a pang of unease. "She's finally back, can't she just behave herself?"

"It's not like she's short of money, why is she making herself so tired every day?"

Du Lei thought that Pei Zhi had finally returned.

He now works in the city and sees Pei Zhi every day.

When he has nothing to do, he'll ask Pei Zhi out for a meal or a walk to keep in touch.

Then, find an opportunity to get the marriage certificate with Pei Zhi.

Goodness, it's been half a year since Pei Zhi came back.

Du Lei met Pei Zhi no more than five times, and all five times he was with the rest of the group.

He didn't even have the chance to chat with Pei Zhi alone anymore.

You don't understand.

"You only have these romantic feelings on your mind. Pei Zhi is a person who is destined for great things."

"I believe that under Pei Zhi's leadership, the company will definitely become a company that attracts worldwide attention."

Du Lei frowned as he listened, "Have you not been resting well? Is your brain not working properly?"

Cheng Xuelin was clearly overly excited, which was obviously inappropriate.

“Let me tell you…” Cheng Xuelin grabbed Du Lei’s hand, then shook his head and gave up.

"No, I can't tell you. It's a company secret. You're an outsider, you can't know."

Du Lei sneered, "Alright, Pei Zhi isn't here, so I'm not going to stay either. When Pei Zhi comes back, you can tell her to call me back."

Pei Zhi has been too busy lately, so Du Lei called her.

Even if Pei Zhi doesn't receive the call, she won't call back.

Cheng Xuelin responded, but judging from Cheng Xuelin's expression, Du Lei guessed that he hadn't really listened.

Du Lei walked to Pei Zhi's desk, took out a piece of paper, and wrote a message on it.

Since Du Lei couldn't see Pei Zhi and had nothing else to do, he simply invited Pei Wang, a bachelor, out.

Pei Wang arrived at the small restaurant wearing a large gold chain, a small watch, and carrying a leather bag.

Du Lei shook his head when he saw Pei Wang's outfit.

What are you wearing?

Pei Wang tugged at the chain. "You don't understand. These days, all bosses wear a chain like this around their necks."

"If someone doesn't have it, then they're not strong enough."

Pei Wang put his phone on the table and tossed his purse onto it as well.

Du Lei couldn't find the right words to describe Pei Wang; in short, he was an eyesore.

Compared to Pei Wang, Du Lei, dressed in a neat shirt and trousers, looked exceptionally clean.

"Are the divorce proceedings complete?"

Pei Wang nodded, picked up the wine on the table, and opened it directly.

"She saw that I seemed to be in a good mood, so she shamelessly refused to get a divorce."

"What nonsense! Over the years, she has given birth to two children for me. It has been so difficult for her."

“And what else did she say? I’ve been working hard outside all these years, and she’s been taking care of everything at home. She needs someone to look after her.”

After drinking a glass of wine, Pei Wang said, "After all this time, it seems like it's my fault the way she puts it."

“My mother and sister-in-law have been taking care of the child since birth.”

"Later, she didn't want to live with my sister-in-law and mother, so I let them go back to the village and hired someone in the city to help her take care of the child."

"As a result, she went out to play mahjong every day, and the people she hired didn't care about the child. I had no choice but to send the child back to the village to be taken care of by my mother."

“Over the years, she hasn’t had to work or take care of the children. She just spends my money to go out and have fun every day.”

"I really don't understand, what's so difficult about her?"

Du Lei picked up the wine bottle and filled Pei Wang's glass with wine.

“When you got married, I advised you that marriage is not a trivial matter and you should think it through carefully.”

Pei Wang waved his hand, "There's no point in telling me this now."

"I've already paid her a sum of money to avoid further trouble, and I'm too lazy to bother with her anymore."

Du Lei was somewhat surprised. "I thought you would send someone to teach them a lesson."

Pei Wang was cheated on, but he still patiently gave the woman money and coaxed her into a divorce.

When did Pei Wang, this hothead, suddenly grow up?

"I'm too lazy to get entangled with them," Pei Wang said with a bitter face. "Getting entangled with them is a huge waste of time."

“I always feel that I am living a fulfilling life now, and it would be a waste to argue with them about such things.”

Du Lei raised an eyebrow slightly. "Speaking of Pei Zhi..."

Pei Wang asked in confusion, "Did I mention Zhizhi's name?"

Pei Wang couldn't recall ever mentioning his sister's name since he entered the store.

Du Lei cleared his throat. "I'm not beating around the bush. I'm treating you to dinner today because I want you to help me out."

“I don’t know what Pei Zhi is busy with. I haven’t seen her for a long time. This can’t go on.”

Pei Zhi is back, and Du Lei believes he has a chance.

This time, no matter what, he can't let Pei Zhi be with anyone else, otherwise, he'll be furious.

“Brother, don’t even mention you, even I have been away for almost three months…” Pei Wang counted on his fingers, “I haven’t seen her for three months.”

"The last time we met was when we celebrated my older brother's birthday together in the village."

"I don't know what that girl was busy with. She didn't even stay overnight at home after having a meal that day. She just drove off in a hurry."

Du Lei has a lot of connections, and he knows some of them.

"It looks like she's working on some electronic products, but I don't know anything about them."

Du Lei was a soldier in the army and knew nothing about these things.

Pei Wang shook his head. "Honestly, you come back and don't even rest. Go out and have some fun instead of keeping yourself so busy."

"It's not like the family is short of money, I really don't understand her."

As Pei Wang spoke, his mobile phone rang.

"Speak of the devil, and his phone rings."

Du Lei gestured for Pei Wang to answer the phone quickly and see what Pei Zhi wanted to talk to him about.

"What's up? You busy man have time to contact me?"

Without further ado, Pei Zhi on the other end of the phone said, "Lend me some money."
