His answer did not surprise Ye Li at all.
If an unmarried man tries every possible way to get around a woman every day and is always trying to please her for no reason, and there is no conflict of interest between the two of them, what other meaning could there be other than wanting to be in a relationship?
"I don't like dishonest people." Ye Li gave him a cold answer.
"Dishonest people? What do you mean by that?"
"That's what I asked you last time, and you said I was overthinking it. This time, you told me that you wanted to pursue me. You said different things both times. If this isn't dishonesty, what is? Either you lied last time, or you lied this time!"
"No..." Faced with Ye Li's rejection, Meng Guanglei felt a little overwhelmed. "I want to get close to you, but I'm worried that you won't accept me. So I find excuses for myself. Is this normal? Why does it become dishonesty when it comes to you?"
"I think you are not being honest. You are being dishonest."
"Ye Li, I think you are prejudiced against me! Can you please not leave yet? Can we stop and sort this out?"
"I don't think it's necessary. Meng Guanglei, haven't I made everything clear?"
...
...
"No, I think it is necessary. These days, I have been thinking about one thing. When we first met, I thought I got your things back for you, and you were quite grateful to me. How come after just a few words, I felt like you wanted to escape? This time, I feel very happy to meet in this city. Why are you avoiding me like the plague?" Meng Guanglei asked.
These problems really bothered him.
Otherwise, he felt that based on his conditions, even if Ye Li didn't like him, she wouldn't avoid him like the plague, right?
"You are too slick and give people a bad impression." Ye Li said directly, "Besides, I also suspected that you were in the same group with those pickpockets."
"Then I was wronged." Meng Guanglei explained to himself hurriedly, "I was living there at the time, and I helped my uncle catch those guys once when I had nothing to do. My uncle is in the police, and I am a retired soldier. The time I met you was the second time I saw them. I said that as long as the things were returned, I would not arrest anyone, otherwise, I would definitely arrest them specifically. Do you understand now?"
"How can you run so fast? You've disappeared..."
"I'm a retired soldier! When I was in the army, I always ran. Besides, you just arrived in that city and didn't know the situation. I've lived here for a long time, so I know the road conditions. I can take a shortcut!"
Meng Guanglei finally explained clearly that the stumbling block in his love life was actually that incident.
"Then I understand. I did wrongly accuse you at that time."
"Can you consider accepting me now?"
“No.”
"Why?" Meng Guanglei was speechless. "Am I so annoying to you? If I remember correctly, we haven't met many times, right? I have such a good impression of you, but you have such a bad impression of me?"
"I'm married, I'm married, I'm married! I say it three times because it's important! Can you understand the reason now?" Ye Li was almost losing his temper because of him.
However, she still patiently told him again.
"Don't lie to me. You've come to a singles gathering, how could you be married? Do you hate me so much? Ye Li, why don't you give me a chance and let's talk and try. Even if it doesn't work, we can break up later." Meng Guanglei pleaded.
Ye Li was almost laughing out of anger: "Who told you that you must be single to attend this youth gathering? I'm not single, I'm here to lead a team to attend the gathering. Because I'm from the Propaganda Department, our factory's union is short of staff, so I came here to help. Do you understand now?"
There was a flash of disappointment in Meng Guanglei's eyes: "Really...really?"
"If it's not true, what else could it be? Am I lying to you?"
Meng Guanglei was silent for a while, looking at Ye Li, and said persistently: "I still don't believe it unless I see your man."
"Are you an employee of the machinery factory?" Ye Li asked him.
"Yes, from the machinery factory. I work in the technical department of our factory, and I'm a designer." Meng Guanglei replied.
A hint of surprise flashed across Ye Li's eyes, but she soon raised a faint smile: "Is that so? Then you should be able to see my husband every day."
"Tiantian? Who is that?"
"Jiang Xun. My husband's name is Jiang Xun."
Meng Guanglei froze in place, it turned out to be him!
Looking at the beautiful woman with a sweet smile in front of him, Meng Guanglei could never have imagined that she was Jiang Xun's wife.
The man was cold and didn't talk much. When others in the office were taking a break, he would be buried in a pile of drawings, studying new products.
He also learned a lot about the man.
He also heard that the man had been unable to find a wife, and his family had thought of spending a large sum of money to "buy" him a wife. However, a beautiful woman suddenly appeared. The woman did not ask for a penny of dowry and married him without hesitation. She also saved money to help him have surgery and save his legs.
At that time, he was wondering what kind of charm this man Jiang Xun had that could make a woman do this for him.
However, he never expected that the woman who could do this for Jiang Xun was the one he fell in love with at first sight.
"Now, you don't suspect that I'm lying to you, do you?" Seeing his confused look, Ye Li couldn't help but laugh, "I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, you can go to Master Qin, Director Wang, Engineer Lin, or anyone in the office to verify it."
"No need to verify, I'm here." A familiar voice came from behind the two people.
Ye Li turned around and saw Jiang Xun walking towards him slowly.
She was stunned for a moment, Jiang Xun had already come to her side, and raised his hand to hold her waist very naturally.
"I am Ye Li's husband." Jiang Xun showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes.
Meng Guanglei was also stunned. He didn't expect that the scene of him harassing Ye Li just now was seen by her husband. At this moment, he was very embarrassed.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
"Why are you here?" Ye Li turned around and glanced at Jiang Xun, "Why didn't you tell me? How long have you been here?"
Jiang Xun lowered his eyes and glanced at Ye Li, his thin lips pressed into a line: "I have been here for a while. In short, I have heard everything I should and shouldn't hear, everything I can and shouldn't hear."
After saying that, he raised his eyes and looked at Meng Guanglei again: "I heard that you like my wife, and you seem to be interested in me too. I'm coming out now and let you meet her."
