The cold and windy night ended, and the rising sun dispelled the cold bit by bit.
The sun was shining brightly outside, but the house was still dark because the doors and windows were closed. Only a few rays of light came through the gaps to provide lighting.
Li Sisi woke up slowly, and her head felt heavy and ponderous, as if it had been hit.
A series of memories flooded into Li Sisi's brain, and her heart began to beat rapidly.
"Fuck!"
She actually kissed Pei Yanli yesterday? !
Li Sisi unconsciously touched her mouth with her hand, feeling weak and panicked: "It's over, it's over, what should I do..."
No, I have to go to the government office to ask for leave and avoid the limelight first.
Li Sisi threw off the quilt and got out of bed, quickly washing up. She had something on her mind and was not in the mood to dress up as usual.
I picked up a skirt and jacket at random, tied my hair into a simple bun and went out.
Along the way, Li Sisi walked quickly while praying in her heart: Don’t meet Pei Yanli, don’t meet Pei Yanli!
In the yamen, Pei Yanli came particularly early today, thinking in his mind how to talk to Sisi later.
He stared with a pair of dark eyes at the two taels of silver quietly placed on the table in front of him, but his mind was in a mess.
I had always told myself that Li Sisi was the girl my brother liked, and that they were in love with each other.
But yesterday, for some unknown reason, he had physical contact with her.
The soft touch and sweet taste of yesterday unconsciously emerged in his mind. Pei Yanli's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously and he shook his head violently.
Don't make the same mistake again! Sisi was drunk yesterday, but he wasn't. It was all his fault.
Li Sisi sneaked up to the government office and saw Lao Tong nearby. She quickly waved and whispered to him, "Lao Tong, here!"
When Lao Tong heard the voice, he turned his head in confusion and found Li Sisi hiding in the corner and waving at him.
Lao Tong walked over and greeted in a loud voice: "Little Leo?"
Li Sisi quickly made a "hush!" gesture and said, "Old Tong, I have something urgent to do today. Can you please ask the boss for leave for me?"
As she spoke, she stuffed the roast chicken in her hand into Lao Tong's hand and said, "I bought this for you on the way. Thanks for your help."
Holding the roast chicken, Lao Tong grinned from ear to ear: "Hey, why are you so polite?" Then he asked doubtfully, "Since you're here, why don't you go in and tell me?"
Li Sisi glanced at the government office entrance and replied, "Oh, I have something urgent to do." She patted Lao Tong's shoulder and said, "Please, I'll go back first."
After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Lao Tong to react.
After returning home, Li Sisi went straight into her room.
Seeing her like this, Li Nian felt something was wrong and followed her into the room.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard Xiaoying shout, "Second sister, Brother Pei is here to see you."
When Li Sisi heard this, she quickly went to close the door.
Li Nian was even more confused. She turned her head and looked at her and asked, "Did you have a fight with Brother Pei?"
"No," Li Sisi said with a guilty look on her face.
Outside the house, Pei Yanli's cold voice sounded: "Sisi, let's talk."
Li Sisi nervously grabbed Li Nian's clothes, tilted her head and stared at the door, and said guiltily: "Boss, I was drunk yesterday and I still have a headache now. I can't talk at all. You go and get busy first!"
She tugged at Li Nian's clothes, signaling her to join in.
Li Nian understood and said loudly, "Brother Pei, Sisi isn't feeling well today. We can talk about anything after she gets better."
There was silence outside the house for a moment, and then someone responded: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Li Sisi pricked up her ears and listened to the footsteps outside the house getting farther and farther away. She breathed a sigh of relief, sat down, poured a cup of herbal tea on the table and drank it all in big gulps.
Li Nian sat across the table, staring at her suspiciously: "What happened between you and Brother Pei?"
Li Sisi covered her face with her hands and said in a muffled voice: "Oh! I'm drunk and having sex!"
Li Nian looked at her in surprise and asked, "Did you do it?"
Li Sisi quickly waved her hands: "No, no, that's not the case. It was just a kiss." She then added weakly, "The kind that adds 30 health points."
When Li Nian heard her words, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked hopefully, "You kissed Brother Pei, did that also increase your health?"
Li Sisi: "No."
Li Nian let out a disappointed "Oh" and looked at her with her eyelids raised. "So what are you going to do now? What about Brother Pei?"
Li Sisi had a sad face, wanting to cry but unable to. "I don't know either! I won't be able to face marrying Pei Yu'an anymore. After all, she's the woman who kissed his eldest brother."
Li Nian: …
Li Nian said angrily, "Why don't you just sleep with her? You can save yourself the trouble and get married right away."
"I don't want to marry him!" Li Sisi frowned and said softly, "If I marry Pei Yanli, that cold man, I will be suppressed by him at work and when I get home from get off work. I will never have a chance to turn things around."
Li Sisi kept shaking his head as he thought about it.
Li Nian kindly reminded: "You can be pressured by him at work, and then you can pressure him back at home."
"Niannian~" Li Sisi hugged her and begged coquettishly: "Don't make fun of me, help me think of a solution~"
"The key is that I gave him two taels of silver yesterday, saying it was compensation!" Li Sisi rubbed her face with both hands, her tone desperate, "It's scary to think about it."
Li Nian didn't know what words to use to describe her feelings at the moment, so she just praised, "Sister, you are really courageous."
After thinking for a moment, she offered an idea: "How about this? You go find him and tell him you mistook him for a prostitute because you were drunk yesterday. If he feels that this is an insult to his dignity, just return the two taels of silver."
Li Sisi was stunned and asked hesitantly, "Is this okay?"
Li Nian nodded in affirmation: "Okay, if he still insists on asking for two taels of silver and refuses to give up, you can say, 'How about I give you 20 taels?' The maximum you can give is 200 taels, no more. After all, it was just a kiss."
"If he still doesn't think it's possible, ask him how he plans to solve it, and you two can discuss it."
After hearing the last sentence, Li Sisi felt that it made sense: "Oh! I will never drink again! I want to quit drinking!"
Li Nian nodded in agreement: "You really can't drink." She felt that Brother Pei seemed to like Sisi, because when Brother Pei sent Sisi back yesterday, he didn't seem drunk.
Oh! It's a difficult situation, brothers, no matter which one you choose, it's awkward.
