Obviously seeing her, Chu Tiantian even waved at her.
Xia Zhichu knew that this woman invited her to dinner, and she must have come to enlighten her about Si Mochen's matter.
If I had known, I should have digested it myself last night and shouldn't have told Chu Tiantian about it. I was afraid that she would talk about Si Mochen all kinds of things tonight, and maybe even force her to re-establish a new view of marriage.
It gives me a headache just thinking about it.
After replying to her with a text message, Xia Zhichu turned around and was about to return to his seat.
At this moment, Lily suddenly called her.
Xia Zhichu looked at her suspiciously, and then heard Lily say gloomily, "Zhichu, is Mr. Lei very busy? He rarely replies to my messages, and he's been quiet lately. Do you think he doesn't like me and just doesn't want to talk to me?"
Since Xia Zhichu gave Lily her contact information, Lily would take the initiative to chat with her almost every day. At first, Lei Yanchao would still reply to her, but recently he has not responded to her messages, which makes Lily very annoyed.
Xia Zhichu felt somewhat guilty when he saw Lily looking depressed.
It’s not that Lei Yan is super busy, but he is hooking up with her best friend and has no time to care about Lily.
But Xia Zhichu couldn't say these things. After all, Lily was her colleague, and she still needed to give her some face.
"People who work in sales are all very busy, right?" Xia Zhichu covered up.
Lily, however, refused to give in. She grabbed her hand and begged, "How about this? I'll ask him out for dinner tonight in your name, and then I'll show up and pretend to run into him by chance."
Seeing Lily looking so sad, Xia Zhichu seemed to really care about Lei Yanchao.
This is where things get tricky.
One is her best friend and the other is her colleague. She can't offend either of them.
Xia Zhichu was a little embarrassed. "I have an appointment tonight. I'm really sorry, Lily."
When Lily heard this, a look of disappointment appeared on her face, which made Xia Zhichu feel even more sorry for her.
When it was time to get off work, Lily was still busy working. Xia Zhichu said something to her and then went downstairs to meet Chu Tiantian.
As soon as she left, Lily greeted all her colleagues and said, "Sister is in a good mood today, so I'll treat everyone to dinner."
At this moment, Xia Zhichu had already gotten into Chu Tiantian's car. As soon as she got in, she heard her friend chattering non-stop, analyzing the pros and cons of her and Si Mochen.
Of course, he couldn't escape Si Mochen's family background.
Xia Zhichu's ears were buzzing, and he looked at his friend with pleading eyes, "Tiantian, I understand, and I'll remember it. I'll be more careful."
It was only at this point that Chu Tiantian walked around her.
But at the end, he added, "As for him being away on business for a month, I don't think it's normal. How about this? I'll call Lei Yanchao out, and you can ask him in person."
Without giving Xia Zhichu a chance to say no, Chu Tiantian made a phone call to Lei Yanchao.
Lei Yanchao naturally had no intention of refusing the invitation of a beautiful woman, and agreed without saying a word.
Chu Tiantian wanted to eat hotpot, so she made an appointment to go to an old hotpot restaurant in the university town. However, Lei Yanchao said that there was a more authentic restaurant available, so the three of them went to the city center to eat rice soup hotpot.
Looking at the tasteless hot pot soup base, Chu Tiantian curled her lips in dissatisfaction, "Lei Yanchao, is this what you call the specialty?"
Chu Tiantian likes spicy food, and her taste is heavier than Xia Zhichu's.
At first, Xia Zhichu couldn't eat spicy food at all, but later he followed Chu Tiantian and learned how to eat spicy food.
Lei Yanchao touched the back of his head and said with an awkward smile, "To be honest, this store is a joint venture between me and someone else."
Hearing this, Chu Tiantian's eyes lit up, and she raised her hand and punched Lei Yanchao without any hesitation, "Little guy, why didn't you tell me earlier? Since it's your shop, you have to come and patronize it."
"I'm treating you tonight, eat as much as you want." Lei Yanchao said generously.
Xia Zhichu sat beside them, watching the two interact, and occasionally glancing at his phone.
Si Mochen hadn't replied since the text message was sent, which made her feel a little depressed.
When Chu Tiantian and Lei Yanchao were playing, they did not forget to take care of their sisters' feelings, so they shifted the topic to Si Mochen.
"By the way, your boss is away on a business trip for a month. What big project is he going to discuss?"
Lei Yanchao had prepared himself for this before coming, and his lie was flawless. So when Chu Tiantian asked him this, he immediately replied fluently, "The company has several real estate projects in other places, so we gave this project to Manager Si. After all, my sister-in-law knows that Manager Si has great prestige in the company and is highly valued by the big boss. Of course, such an important task must be handled by Manager Si himself."
"Of course, the remuneration is also very considerable. Once Manager Si completes this work, it seems he can get a bonus of several hundred thousand."
His tone was so calm, as if it really happened.
When Chu Tiantian heard about the hundreds of thousands of yuan bonus, her eyes lit up as she looked at Xia Zhichu. "Great, Chuchu, your husband is really capable. This bonus is equivalent to several years' salary for an average person."
Xia Zhichu chuckled twice, "Who was it just now that said my husband was a second-generation rich man, and that he was able to sell houses and buy cars only because his family was well-off?"
Chu Tiantian turned her face away guiltily and said, "No, maybe you heard it wrong?"
Lei Yanchao saw the two women bickering and broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, he was smart and able to respond quickly, otherwise if he leaked any information, Si Mochen would have skinned him alive.
However, this is just the beginning. Chu Tiantian has made up her mind to get to the bottom of it tonight.
At the moment Lei Yanchao breathed a sigh of relief, she asked again, "By the way, is your boss on this business trip alone, or is there anyone else with him?"
Lei Yanchao thought about the phone call Si Mochen made to him last night, in which he seemed to say that Zhao Sichun had also moved into his villa. Could it be that Xia Zhichu had discovered something, so he asked Chu Tiantian to test him?
After careful consideration, Lei Yanchao answered cautiously, "It's just Manager Si, but he has to deal with a lot of big clients, both men and women."
"Oh, will that female customer show up at the salesperson's residence in the middle of the night?" Chu Tiantian knew that Xia Zhichu was embarrassed to ask, so she asked for her. As long as she listened nearby, it would be fine.
"Of course...not!" Lei Yanchao said.
This answer made Xia Zhichu feel uncomfortable.
So he is not a client, is Si Mochen really deceiving himself?
Just as he was feeling down, Lei Yanchao added, "But it seems like Manager Si has relatives where he's on a business trip. Although the company has arranged accommodation for him this time, it's possible he's visiting his relatives."
After saying this, Xia Zhichu reorganized what happened last night.
The woman called out "Brother Mochen" tenderly. Could she be Si Mochen's cousin?
If that's the case, she's really too sensitive and suspicious.
She had clearly said that she believed in him, but a woman's voice affected her mood for the whole night.
After hearing this, Chu Tiantian uttered a heavy "oh," "So, last night, Si Mochen went to stay at a relative's house?"
