Chapter 145 What Bo Wei owes you, I will repay for you.

"Buy me a new one, I want to wear it."

She might not know if others would notice if she suddenly lost a pair of stockings, but she would definitely panic.

As for the one in the office downstairs, he even had the nerve to ask her if she wanted to wear it...

Who tore it apart and can't remember anything at all?

Li He was in an exceptionally good mood.

He placed the clothes on the bed, stood tall, and looked at her. "Shall I help you get dressed first?"

Bo Wei glared at him playfully, "Get out of here and go buy me some stockings."

"Call me husband." He stood there lazily, waiting.

Bo Wei: ...

"Are you a profiteer? You want it all."

Li He nodded, "Thank you for your kind words."

Bo Wei: ...

"Should we call or not?"

Bo Wei was silent for a moment, then moved her lips and made a sound as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

She immediately buried her face in the blanket in embarrassment.

She thought she would never be able to say the word "husband" in her entire life.

Li He leaned down beside her, a smile on his face. "You little mosquito, if you can't make your voice clearly next time, I'll strip you naked and tie you up with a tie... I'll let you go after you make your voice clear."

Bo Wei blushed and said angrily, "You dare?"

Li He smiled, not saying whether he dared or not, but gave her a suggestive kiss on her fair shoulder.

Bo Wei: ...

With his dissolute demeanor, it seems there's nothing he wouldn't dare to do.

Li He wasn't afraid that she would see through him.

He was never a perfect person; she'd better see through him sooner rather than later.

"Put on your clothes, or I'll take them off."

Bo Wei: ...

I entered the office just in time for the afternoon workday.

As expected, everyone's eyes turned to her, and Bo Wei sat down awkwardly.

"You disappeared for the whole morning, what were you doing?" Xu Xiangying leaned closer to her in a suggestive manner.

Bo Wei's face flushed red instantly.

Still unsure how to fabricate a story, Xu Xiangying continued, "Judging from your expression, have you won over President Li's grandmother?"

Bo Wei was stunned for a moment. So that's how it was...

Wendy's eyes were dazzled when she looked up and was immediately struck by the enormous diamond ring on Bo Wei's hand.

"This ring, was it given to you by President Li's grandmother?" she asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fangfei immediately stood up and stood on tiptoe to look at her hand.

Xu Xiangying couldn't see it, but she moved quickly and immediately ran to Bo Wei's side.

With his mouth agape in exaggerated gestures, he reverently picked up her hand and held it up to admire it.

"So this is the legendary pigeon egg. Are pigeon eggs about the same size as quail eggs? They look like quail eggs to me." She looked at Bo Wei with a blank expression.

Bo Wei was both amused and exasperated. "I've never seen a pigeon egg, but I've eaten plenty of quail eggs."

“Right?” She raised Bo Wei’s hand and showed it to everyone, “Everyone, open your eyes today, a pigeon egg.”

Lin Fangfei said, "Such a big diamond ring, yet the setting is so simple, and it's still so beautiful. It turns out that truly beautiful diamonds don't need a setting to set them off."

She didn't mention it, so no one noticed; but once she did, everyone saw it was true.

Xu Xiangying let go of her hand, "Oh my god, I can't take it anymore, it's too bright, light pollution!"

She exaggeratedly covered her eyes, successfully making everyone laugh.

Qiao Yuechuan teased, "Weiwei, you're going to be our boss's wife from now on. You have to look after us. We're all your dear former colleagues."

Everyone nodded, their faces showing a pleading expression.

Bo Wei blushed awkwardly, "I'll try my best."

Inside a reception room in the annex building of the Li Group.

Ji Mingxiu stood outside the door, his expression unreadable.

He stood there for a moment, then opened the door and went inside.

Li He leaned back lazily in a single sofa, lifting his eyelids to look at him. "You're here. Sit down."

Ji Mingxiu glanced at him and sat down on the sofa opposite him.

He sat for a while, but Li He showed no intention of speaking; his captivating eyes continued to scrutinize him.

"If there's nothing else, Mr. Li, I'll go back to my work now." He was about to get up.

But the next moment, when she saw what Li He took out, she stopped.

Li He took out the red booklet from the inside pocket of his suit, opened it, and placed it on the coffee table, facing Ji Mingxiu.

Ji Mingxiu didn't need to look; he already knew what it was.

His heart suddenly ached sharply.

Even though he had already guessed it, he couldn't help but look.

Marriage certificate.

Li He, Bo Wei.

A small photo of the two of them.

His heart was throbbing with pain, and he tensed his jaw to control his emotions.

That day, he dragged his suitcase home.

He opened her door and saw the empty room; in that instant, he panicked and regretted it.

He doesn't want to break up, not at all.

He had been chasing after her for so many years.

I admire her quiet and low-key personality, her focused study habits, and her natural and refined appearance even without makeup.

After all these years, he finally got his wish.

The day she agreed to be with him, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep all night, and when he woke up he was still worried that he was dreaming.

only.

Perhaps it's a matter of their personalities.

Or perhaps he placed too high a place in her heart. Even after they became boyfriend and girlfriend, he didn't know how to manage the relationship or how to properly get close to her.

Before the breakup, he thought he could let go and only wanted to give her the right to pursue happiness.

But now he realizes that liking someone for so many years is a habit ingrained in his bones that he simply can't change.

He regretted it every moment, and every time he picked up his phone, he would put it down again.

He didn't have the courage to contact her; she didn't need him.

Now, looking at the marriage certificate in front of him, he doesn't even have a chance anymore.

The woman he had waited for for so many years, yet could never enter her heart, married someone else in the blink of an eye.

Oh.

"If President Li came here to show off, then you've succeeded."

Li He took in his reaction, put the marriage certificate away, and said, "It's not about showing off, just informing you."

Ji Mingxiu remained silent; in his view, this was a silent display of power.

He easily accomplished what he couldn't do in ten years: won the admiration of the woman he loved and married the woman he couldn't marry.

"Does Mr. Li have any other instructions? Or is he just informing me of this matter?"

Li He picked up a file folder next to him and threw it at him.

Ji Mingxiu caught it and looked at him.

"Open it and take a look."

Ji Mingxiu opened it, and after a moment put the items back in, his expression was rather unpleasant.

"What does Mr. Li mean by this?"

Li He looked at him and said calmly, "I will repay what Bo Wei owes you."

Ji Mingxiu said unhappily, "She doesn't owe me anything, and she's paid me back the money. We're even. What is President Li worried about doing this?"

Li He chuckled softly and said with utmost confidence, "Mr. Ji, you overestimate yourself. I didn't even take you seriously when you were in power, let alone now."

Ji Mingxiu looked somewhat embarrassed, but he had to admit that he was right.

“I don’t like my wife owing favors to others. She has paid back the money she owed you, but she hasn’t repaid the kindness she owed you.”

The word "wife" was extremely jarring, and he gritted his teeth and refused, "I don't need it."
