Chapter 226: PUA Success
"Oh?" Qin Sisi raised her eyebrows, half smiling, "If you're not belittling me, then you're praising me?"
"Sisi." Lu Yibai lowered his eyes and looked at her. The indifference and sarcasm in his eyes instantly turned into tenderness.
"Sisi, don't be anxious. Just listen to me and I will explain it to you slowly."
Qin Sisi: "Okay, I'll listen to Brother Yibai's explanation slowly."
Lu Yibai curled his lips and smiled lightly, "We are in love. Even if we are having some unpleasantness now, I will not easily say anything to hurt you. I said that just now not to humiliate you, but to remind you."
"Remind you to stay realistic and not be led by the hypocritical desire to compare with others."
"You are still young and you still have a chance. You must not fall into the trap you set for yourself."
“……” Qin Sisi looked up at him without saying anything.
He raised his hand and gently stroked Qin Sisi's hair, his eyes filled with a layer of hidden heartache.
"We have been together for four years and have done all kinds of intimate things. Although we have some conflicts now, it does not affect my love for you. I am a person who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside. Many times, I have compromised in my heart, but I will not let you go in words."
"Sisi, you've been with me for so long, don't you understand me yet?"
“…”
Qin Sisi's eyes were dazed for a few seconds, and the hard thorns on her body softened little by little in the entanglement of contradictions.
She wavered.
"Eh..." Lu Yibai sighed at the right time, "Sisi, I admit that I'm not a very glorious person. But most of my shameful things are because of you."
"Back then, I came to Yuncheng alone, without any family or friends. Starting a business is a very difficult thing. If I didn't rely on the power of others, it would be impossible for me to make a name for myself in Yuncheng."
"I loved you so much back then, but your father looked down on me. In order to prove myself and build a career so that you could live a life that everyone envied, I could only rely on the Qin Group to climb up."
"I am a man, I have dignity, and many times I feel ashamed of myself. The Qin Group helped me, but it made me feel like I was taking advantage of the Qin Group."
"During that time, I was in great pain. I was confused, anxious, and restless, and couldn't sleep all night. It was Sisi who stayed with me every step of the way, and helped me slowly come out of my emotions."
"I still remember what Sisi said to me. Sisi said that we will be a family in the future, and it's okay to share resources temporarily. Sisi also said that everything I did was for our future, and it was only right for the Qin Group to help me a little."
Lu Yibai's words were soft and slow, like hypnosis, bringing Qin Sisi back to that difficult yet sweet time.
At that time, her relationship with Lu Yibai was really good, so good that everyone around her was envious.
"Sisi." Lu Yibai opened his arms and gently embraced Qin Sisi. "As you said, we are the most tacit partners. As long as we work together again, we will be able to complete the task beautifully."
"Are you ready to win the battle?"
“……”Qin Sisi didn’t say anything.
The perfume Lu Yibai was wearing was the same one he usually wore. Its refreshing and slightly cool scent was like a forest after the rain, which could calm people down unconsciously once they smelled it.
Qin Sisi closed her eyes, and her body, which had been tense for a long time, finally relaxed slowly at this moment, and she snuggled into Lu Yibai's arms with peace of mind.
Lu Yibai curled his lips, a smile spreading from the corners of his mouth but failing to reach his eyes.
"Sisi, I have already thought of a way to deal with Pei Xingzhi. You just need to cooperate with me."
Qin Sisi's voice softened: "How do you cooperate?"
Lu Yibai: "The same old trick is used again, but the protagonist is no longer Weilan Studio, but..."
"Qin Group." Qin Sisi suddenly opened her eyes.
…
“A-choo!”
“A-choo!!”
Xie Zhaoyuan was watching the full moon banquet when he suddenly sneezed twice.
"Ouch." Mother Pei put down the toy in her hand, quickly came over and gently patted Xie Zhaoyuan on the back, "Why have you been sneezing so much these days? Did you catch a cold because you didn't wear warm clothes?"
"Probably not." Xie Zhaoyuan rubbed his nose, "It's warm at home, and I'm wearing a lot of clothes, so I hardly ever feel cold."
Mother Pei took the shawl that was lying on the side and carefully put it on her: "If you are not cold, then why do you keep sneezing?"
Xie Zhaoyuan thought about it for a while and said jokingly, "Maybe someone is saying bad things about me behind my back. After all, I am now a super internet celebrity and a well-known jewelry designer. There must be a lot of people who envy and hate me behind my back."
"..." Pei's mother was amused by her narcissism, "You are not much more mature than you think."
"Mother-in-law, you are exaggerating." Bai Ruiying came over with Xiangxiang in her arms and sat down next to Pei's mother. "Zhao Zhao's childishness is obviously similar to Xiangxiang's. When Xiangxiang grows up a little, he can learn to take care of his mother."
"Oh my God!" Song Yihan came down from upstairs holding a tablet, "Just think about how precocious he is. He can already take care of his mother when he's only a few months old?"
Pei Lingxuan: "Of course. According to the plan I set for Xiangxiang, he has to go to the kitchen to cook when he is four months old."
"..." Mother Pei was speechless, "Thank you on behalf of Xiang Xiang."
"Hi," Pei Lingxuan waved her hand modestly, "It's my duty."
"Zhao Zhao." Song Yihan slipped over to Xie Zhaoyuan in slippers and squeezed her tightly as if she was afraid of the cold. "What do you think of the banquet? Are you satisfied with anything?"
Xie Zhaoyuan shook his head: "I looked at many banquets, and in the end I still think the one my father chose is better."
"Mom, why don't we just order the one Dad recommended?"
Bai Ruiying: "I think that hotel is good too. Besides, the owner of that hotel is a good friend of your father. If you really book with them, you should be able to get a good discount on the price."
Song Yihan: "Is this a happy decision?"
"Don't worry." Bai Ruiying put Xiangxiang in the crib, stood up and stretched her waist, "Wait until Xingzhi and Xiaoyi come home, and then talk to them before making a decision."
"Pei Xingzhi had already made his decision!" Xie Zhaoyuan put away his tablet and said with a smile, "Pei Xingzhi was with my father when he was choosing the banquet. This hotel was the unanimous choice of both of them."
Bai Ruiying: "Then let's not wait any longer. Let's book this place for the banquet. When Xiaoyi comes back in the evening, just let him know."
"Hahaha!" Song Yi laughed wickedly, "Xiao Yi's family status is not even as good as the turtle in the fish tank!"
