Chapter 225: Hurting each other
Xiao Chen became honest: "Boss Lu, I know I was wrong."
Lu Yibai glared at him with a headache and was about to wave him away when someone suddenly knocked on the office door.
“Knock knock knock—”
"Mr. Lu."
Lu Yibai frowned impatiently and responded coldly, "Come in."
The next second, the gray-black door was pushed open from the outside, and another secretary walked in quickly and said to Lu Yibai respectfully, "Mr. Lu, Miss Qin Sisi is here and wants to see you."
"No." Lu Yibai said in a cold tone without any hesitation.
The secretary stood in front of the desk with her hands down, her expression somewhat tentative: "Mr. Lu, Miss Qin Sisi said she can help you solve your troubles."
"..." Lu Yibai paused slightly and indeed hesitated.
The secretary continued, "Ms. Qin Sisi also said that she and you used to be the most tacit partners. I believe that this time, you can also work together to complete the task beautifully."
“…”
Lu Yibai narrowed his sharp eyes slightly, and the determination and indifference on his face gradually softened into sarcasm.
"Ask her in." He sat back in the chair, his long straight legs casually crossed in front of him.
The secretary nodded in agreement, then walked out of the office and called in Qin Sisi, who had been waiting for a long time.
"Brother Yibai!"
Qin Sisi stood in front of Lu Yibai, the smile on her face was as sweet and bright as ever, but her eyes lacked some of the infatuation and love.
Lu Yibai looked at her expressionlessly, and suddenly realized that she was actually quite ordinary.
I haven't seen her for more than a month and she has lost a lot of weight. All the collagen on her face was lost, her cheekbones were slightly protruding, and her usual sweetness and cuteness disappeared, replaced by maturity, old-fashionedness, and a bit of annoying harshness.
Her appearance has changed a little, but her clothes are still the same as before, pretty and fresh.
A cream-colored short down jacket, paired with an off-white wool skirt and a pair of misty gray thick-heeled boots.
Her hair was still long black curly, and the sides were still braided into princess braids, and she also wore two pearl white bow clips.
In the past, Lu Yibai liked to see her dressed like this, and felt that this outfit made her look cute and energetic. But now, the same person, the same outfit, he just felt it was inconsistent and weird.
He looked away in disgust, unwilling to look at Qin Sisi any longer.
"What are you doing here?"
Qin Sisi clearly saw the disgust in Lu Yibai's eyes, but did not show any reaction on her face. She turned her head to look at Xiao Chen who was standing aside, and then looked at Lu Yibai.
Lu Yibai raised his hand perfunctorily, motioning Xiao Chen to go out.
Xiao Chen understood and took the contract in his hand and placed it on Lu Yibai's desk. Then he walked out of the office quietly and closed the door.
“Click—”
The door was locked gently, and suddenly Qin Sisi and Lu Yibai were the only ones left in the huge office.
Lu Yibai sat steadily in the chair, with no intention of getting up.
"What are you doing here?" he asked again.
Qin Sisi raised the corners of her lips and smiled at him tenderly: "Brother Yibai, I am here to help you solve your problems."
"Explain it clearly." Lu Yibai didn't have the patience to beat around the bush with her.
Her eyes turned cold, and the corners of her mouth drooped down little by little.
"...I'll help you deal with Pei Xingzhi." Her tone was a little stiff, but she still smiled.
Lu Yibai raised his eyes and looked at her, a slight wrinkle appeared between his brows, and his expression was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
He didn't say anything, using silence to urge Qin Sisi to continue.
Qin Sisi: "The otome game developed by Pei Xingzhi has dominated the hot search list. Judging from the popularity of the hot search, the expectations of netizens, and the five-star feedback from internal test players, his game has a very high chance of becoming a hit."
"If his game is successfully launched and becomes a big hit, it will only be a matter of time before he creates another Pei Group."
"Brother Yibai, do you think what I said is right?"
Lu Yibai raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked instead of answering: "Why are you still willing to help me?"
Because of that live broadcast, the two of them completely fell out, and all the unbearable and disgusting feelings that had been hidden in their hearts for years were exposed.
Although they didn't say they were breaking up, they both knew that this relationship might be coming to an end soon.
"Brother Yibai." Qin Sisi pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled bitterly, "I'm not helping you, I'm helping myself."
"Qin Song's biological parents are Bai Ruiying and Xie Jiangshan. Xie Jiangshan's Xie Technology is superior to the Qin family in every aspect, so Qin Song's status will naturally be higher than mine. The thing I can't stand the most in my life is being stepped on by Qin Song. If Pei Xingzhi makes a comeback at this time, Qin Song will not only be the daughter of Xie Technology, she will also be the mistress of Zhuyuan Technology."
"I absolutely cannot allow this to happen! Qin Song, you must not climb up any further!"
"Oh……"
After hearing her words, Lu Yibai suddenly laughed.
"Qin Sisi, you have completely lost to Qin Song. Even if Qin Song cannot become the mistress of Zhuyuan Technology, her status is still several levels higher than yours."
"She is not only the daughter of Xie Technology, she is also a super internet celebrity with tens of millions of fans, and a well-known jewelry designer in Yuncheng. Her design commissions are already scheduled until August next year, and ordinary people can't get an appointment at all."
"And what about you? Your jewelry design studio has been open for so long, but you have only received a few orders in total? Does anyone in Yuncheng recognize you as a jewelry designer?"
"...Brother Yibai, what do you mean?" Qin Sisi clenched her five fingers and clenched her hands into fists.
Her face looked very ugly, but she was still smiling at Lu Yibai: "Brother Yibai, seeing that Qin Song has a brilliant background and is now both famous and capable, do you want to change your mind and renew your relationship with Qin Song?"
Lu Yibai: "I..."
"I know." Qin Sisi interrupted him in a gentle tone, "Brother Bai always treats people according to their background. Brother Bai must be particularly fond of Xie's technology and jewelry design, so he has feelings for Qin Song again."
"But it's a pity that Qin Song already has a husband and children now, and her husband was given to her by Brother Bai himself."
"The couple has a good relationship. If Brother Bai really has any idea in his mind, he might end up with nothing."
"..." Lu Yibai's smile completely froze on his face. He glared at Qin Sisi fiercely, with surging anger in his eyes, but the next moment, the anger was replaced by helplessness and regret.
"Sisi, I think you may have misunderstood me." He gently put down his long legs, stood up from the chair leisurely, then slowly walked around the long table and slowly approached Qin Sisi.
"When I said you were no match for Qin Song, I didn't mean to belittle you."
