At the Shen family's funeral, everyone had a heavy expression and the atmosphere was depressing.
The two best friends were both wearing plain skirts and jackets today. They walked into the mourning hall with solemn expressions. After giving gifts at the accounting office, they went to Shen Baiying's room together to find her.
In the room, Shen Baiying's eyes were swollen from crying.
The two men sat beside her, one on the left and one on the right.
Li Sisi held Shen Baiying's hand and whispered to comfort her: "Baiying, don't be too sad, you have to take care of yourself, I see that you don't look very good."
Shen Baiying raised her red and swollen eyes filled with tears and cried again with a "Wow——"
Li Sisi patted her hurriedly to comfort her.
At this time, Wang Yi came trotting in plain clothes with hemp on his head.
He took out an oil-paper bag from his pocket and handed it to Shen Baiying, saying with a distressed look on his face, "You haven't eaten anything all day, eat something quickly. I'll be sad if you starve yourself to death."
Shen Baiying stopped crying, reached out to take the oil paper package and opened it, and found that it was full of her favorite foods.
She looked at him with emotion: "Thank you, Wang Yi."
Not only did she thank him for taking the trouble to bring her food, but she was also grateful for his constant companionship throughout this period of time.
The sisters saw the interaction between the two, and it was obvious that Shen Baiying relied on Wang Yi, while Wang Yi seemed to really care about Shen Baiying.
The two best friends stood up and said goodbye consciously to avoid being a third wheel in the room.
Since they had already presented the gifts and considering that Li Nian was pregnant, the two of them did not plan to stay long.
After Li Sisi went to say goodbye to Shen Qianye and Aunt Shen, she and Li Nian walked towards the location of their carriage.
Li Nian sighed softly, "It seems that Bai Ying and Wang Yi are in a good relationship now. It's a relief for her to let go of Brother Pei."
Li Sisi nodded in agreement: "Yes, it is a comfort to have someone accompany her all the time at this time."
As they were talking, suddenly a familiar figure came running over.
Li Sisi's heart skipped a beat. It was over. Why did she have to meet him?
Li Nian also saw Pei Yanli walking quickly towards him in a dark robe, and raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that Brother Pei, who was always steady and serious, would have such an impatient day.
Thinking that Li Sisi has been hiding at home for the past two days and dared not face reality, Li Nian thought it would be a good opportunity to make things clear today.
Li Sisi helped Li Nian onto the carriage, and then quickly climbed onto the carriage herself. When she was about to reach out to grab the reins, another big hand grabbed the reins first.
There was an imperceptible tenderness hidden in Pei Yanli's cold eyes. Girls are sensitive about their reputation, so it's inevitable that they would feel shy when encountering such things.
So, he took the initiative.
"I'll take you back." The cold tone carried the warmth of ice water just beginning to melt.
Li Sisi pursed her lips, too timid to even look at him, and lowered her head as she got into the carriage.
The carriage moved forward slowly. Li Sisi was very nervous along the way and had no peace for a moment. She felt a headache when she thought about what she would face next.
Why did she drink? Drinking is fine, but why did she get drunk? Getting drunk is fine, but why did she act crazy?
The journey seemed quite long when coming, but when going back, Li Sisi felt it was particularly short.
After Li Sisi jumped off the carriage, she carefully helped Li Nian out of the carriage.
Pei Yanli remained silent throughout the whole process, didn't say anything, and just quietly acted as a competent coachman.
He didn't come to Li Sisi's study until he had parked the carriage.
Li Sisi knew that she couldn't escape today. She would have to face it sooner or later. Whether she stuck her head out or hid it, she would still be in danger.
It all has to be done the same way anyway!
Li Sisi sat at the desk in the study, her back tense. Seeing Pei Yanli enter the room, she raised her hand and gestured, "Sit down."
Pei Yanli glanced at the position of the stool, which was obviously prepared by someone in advance.
Pei Yanli sat down obediently. No matter how he looked at the two of them, it seemed as if he was going to be tried by Li Sisi.
I can't help but find it a little funny.
Li Sisi took a deep breath and spoke first: "Boss, we were both drunk that day. Can you just pretend nothing happened?"
Pei Yanli thought of many possibilities, but he never thought that Li Sisi would have such a plan?
The corners of his originally straight mouth drooped slightly, and his gaze was as deep as an abyss, making it impossible to understand his emotions at the moment. "How can we pretend that what has happened has never happened? I will be responsible for you."
The voice was calm but firm and irrefutable.
Li Sisi just didn't know how to deal with this kind of person. She felt that she had no control over the other person's emotions and decisions.
Hearing Pei Yanli say that he would take responsibility, she panicked and quickly waved her hands: "No, no, we are not suitable for each other. Forcing us to be together will not have a good result."
Pei Yanli was not surprised by her rejection. He raised his eyes and asked expectantly, "Do you like Yu'an? Is Yu'an also the person you want to marry?"
Li Sisi lowered her head in silence.
Brother Pei didn't look for her when he came back this time. The two of them had been together for so long before, but she had never heard Brother Pei say that he "liked her", so she had no idea what Brother Pei meant.
Now that she and Pei Yanli have been involved in this, she feels that there is no hope for her and Second Brother Pei. Why not just not choose anyone? Wouldn't it be nice to just be friends?
But looking at Pei Yanli's expression, he seemed to care a lot.
Li Sisi bravely asked, "Do you want to take responsibility because we had physical contact? Or is it because you like me?" If he said it was because of etiquette, she could persuade him to be more open-minded.
It’s just a kiss, just think of it as being bitten by a cute puppy!
