Throughout the whole day, Pei Chi always felt that something was wrong. It seemed that he hadn't seen Chu Xia's face all day long.
After get off work, Pei Chi immediately went to look for Chu Xia, but found that Chu Xia was missing. Other secretaries said that Chu Xia had left work five minutes ago.
He left work in low spirits. Without Chu Xia by his side, he suddenly felt that it was meaningless.
If Chu Xia were here, there would definitely be a bunch of jokes waiting for him to see. Although that woman has a lot of shortcomings, she just loves to make jokes.
After returning to Pei's house, he did not see Chu Xia. This time, he was mentally prepared and called Chu Xia directly. He wanted to know where this woman was now.
"Where are you?" Pei Chi asked straight to the point.
"On the subway, going back to Pei's house soon." Chu Xia's answer made Pei Chi frown slightly.
Afterwards, Chu Xia hung up the phone. Pei Chi looked at the phone for a long time and found that he was distracted again.
Chu Xia didn't avoid him, wasn't he about to return to the Pei family?
After waiting for an hour, Pei Chi still didn't see Chu Xia come home, so he called Chu Xia again and asked, "Where are you?!"
"I'm outside and have something to do. I met the second young master and asked him to bring a message to Mr. Pei. Did he forget to tell me?"
In addition to the sounds of early summer, it felt very noisy there.
Pei Chi hung up the phone and asked Pei Ze. Only then did Pei Ze remember what Chu Xia had said to him.
"Sister-in-law did receive a call. The other party seemed to have something urgent. She happened to meet me at the door of our house and asked me to tell you. I actually forgot about it!" Pei Ze carefully observed his words and noticed that Pei Chi's
The expression is too serious.
Pei Chi didn't ask any more questions. This time, he felt that things were not that simple.
As long as one more day passes, he will be able to determine whether Chu Xia is avoiding him!
The next day, Pei Chi became more thoughtful.
He left the office at ten o'clock in the morning and passed by the secretary's office area. He looked at Chu Xia's location, but there was no trace of Chu Xia.
At eleven o'clock, he left the office again and found Chu Xia facing her from behind.
He made a gesture to return to the office. After a minute, he suddenly left the office again and saw Chu Xia sitting back at his desk.
Seeing him come out again, the woman's expression was obviously surprised.
Pei Chi did not make any move, glanced at Chu Xia briefly, and then left for the conference room.
In the afternoon, he tried a few more times and found that he was not careless, but Chu Xia was avoiding him. Moreover, he was avoiding him very cleverly.
He has never forgotten that if Chu Xia wants to play tricks, then there is no ambiguity at all.
When there were still thirty minutes before get off work, Pei Chi called Chu Xia into the office.
Chu Xia stood in front of Pei Chi, watching the man writing furiously. After waiting for a long time, he didn't speak. She broke the silence and asked, "Mr. Pei asked me to come in. What are your orders?"
"Wait a moment." Pei Chi continued working without looking up.
Chu Xia had no choice but to wait. Time passed bit by bit. Seeing that it was time to get off work, she was a little anxious. Just as she was about to ask again, Pei Chi closed the document and said, "Secretary Chu, let's get off work together."
Chu Xia was slightly shocked. Could it be that Pei Chi asked her to come into the office just to wait for them to get off work together?
Her eyebrows twitched slightly, and she suddenly felt something bad. She realized that Pei Chi might be doubting herself.
In the morning, Pei Chi suddenly returned to the office and came out again. It was most likely that he was testing her.
"Okay, I'm going to pack my handbag." Chu Xia pretended to be calm.
"You wait here, I'll help you clean up." After Pei Chi finished speaking, he left the office ahead of her.
He came back again, holding Chu Xia's handbag in his hand, and handed it back to her: "Let's go."
Chu Xia paused for a moment, then followed Pei Chi and entered the elevator.
Neither of them spoke, watching the numbers in the elevator jumping. The place was so quiet that they could hear each other's breathing.
Until Chu Xia's cell phone rang, Chu Xia hurriedly pressed the stop button, and Pei Chi looked at her and asked, "Aren't you going to answer the phone?"
"It's the alarm clock ringtone." Chu Xia knew that Pei Chi must have checked her mobile phone when helping her get her handbag, and she didn't dare to lie this time.
"I suddenly wondered whether the phone calls that Secretary Chu answered in front of me the day before yesterday, and the calls in front of Ozawa yesterday, were all the alarm clock ringtones set by Secretary Chu." Pei Chi looked at Chu Xia's face intently,
Smile and lift your lips.
"Mr. Pei is indeed a big shot in big business and has a very rich imagination." Chu Xia was well prepared and looked back calmly without changing his expression.
Even if what Pei Chi said was true, she would not admit it. After all, before today, Pei Chi had no evidence that she was lying.
Pei Chi had expected that Chu Xia would not admit it, so he hugged Chu Xia's shoulders and smiled lightly: "Under my nose, you'd better stay safe. If you always play tricks like this, I won't spare you!"
"
Before Chu Xia could answer, her cell phone rang again.
This time she pushed Pei Chi's arm away from her shoulders and hid in a corner of the elevator to answer the phone.
Hearing the other party's voice, she responded softly: "Just got off work."
Pei Chi always felt that Chu Xia was sneaky. He stepped forward and snatched Chu Xia's mobile phone. When he saw the caller ID as "Gu Yi Nian", he looked deeply at Chu Xia.
He thought that Chu Xia was playing tricks again, but he didn't expect that someone actually called her this time, and it was her old lover.
Chu Xia quickly took back her phone and responded, "I'm listening. Is there anything wrong with Mr. Gu?"
"I'd like to treat you to dinner, are you free?"
Gu Yinian's question made Chu Xia a little puzzled. She had known Gu Yinian for so many years, but Gu Yinian had never invited her to a meal. What happened this time?
She wanted to refuse, but out of the corner of her eye she caught sight of the long legs of the man standing next to her. She immediately changed her mind and replied: "Of course, where are you, I'll go over now."
Gu Yinian reported his address and then hung up the phone.
Chu Xia was the first to get out of the elevator, but Pei Chi followed her closely, quickly dragging her back to her original position: "I have a car to take you there to meet your old lover."
"Don't bother Mr. Pei." Chu Xia replied coldly and politely.
Her well-behaved appearance once again made Pei Chi feel an eyesore, because this woman was always neither big nor small in front of him, but this time, she looked strange no matter how she looked at her.
"No trouble, you are my right-hand man after all, and I should care about the lives of my subordinates." Pei Chi tightened Chu Xia's arm and spoke firmly.
Chu Xia didn't know how to refuse, so she followed Pei Chi to the parking lot and got into his car.
Along the way, Chu Xia turned to look at the scenery outside the car window without saying a word. Her quiet look made Pei Chi look sideways. In his memory, this woman had been talking and laughing. There were very few times when she was so quiet.
.
She didn't even look at him, as if he was nothing.
"Secretary Chu, what are you thinking about?" Pei Chi asked, breaking the silence, suddenly wanting to get into this woman's heart and see what was there.
"This city is so big..." When Chu Xia saw a familiar building, her eyes froze and her eyebrows became gentle.
Pei Chi saw the gentle smile on her lips and followed her gaze.
Perhaps because he was driving too fast, he missed the scenery in early summer. What he saw was just an ordinary building, nothing unique about it.
"This city is already very big." Pei Chi responded in vain, realizing for the first time that he didn't know how to communicate with this woman, Chu Xia.
Chu Xia was distracted all the way, and when she realized something was wrong, she had already arrived near Pei's house.
She looked at Pei Chi in surprise, not expecting that he would take her back to Pei Chi's house without keeping his word.
"I have an appointment with Mr. Gu. I don't want to be someone who breaks his word. Mr. Pei, just let me get off the bus here." Chu Xia looked at Pei Chi and said every word.
"You can just call and turn down the date. This doesn't mean breaking your promise." Pei Chi replied quietly, pretending not to see the disapproving look in Chu Xia's eyes.
"If I wanted to break the contract, I would never have agreed to go and park the car before." Chu Xia's voice became colder.
Pei Chi's face also turned cold: "Don't forget, you and I have an appointment. No matter what happens in the future, at least in these two years, you should stick to your duties and let me know that you dare to indulge in sexual abuse. I will not forgive you.
you!"
"At worst, our agreement is over. I've already signed the divorce agreement anyway!" Chu Xia said, suddenly grabbing the steering wheel.
Pei Chi didn't expect Chu Xia to come at the last moment. He stepped on the brakes suddenly and the car sped forward. Fortunately, he braked in time and was saved at the last moment.
He looked at Chu Xia in disbelief and shouted in a deep voice: "Damn woman, you are crazy!!"
"I told you, I'll get off the car here!" After Chu Xia finished speaking, she got off the car on her own.
Pei Chi also got out of the car and chased after her: "You signed, but I didn't say I signed too! Before I signed, we were a couple in the legal sense. If you dare to cheat, I can sue you."
adultery!!"
Chu Xia paused slightly and looked back at Pei Chi: "You didn't sign?!"
She thought that the divorce agreement between her and Pei Chi was signed by both of them, and that she had just gotten married and was already divorced.
She didn't even see clearly whether Pei Chi's name was signed on her divorce agreement. If she remembered correctly, she seemed to have signed it, right?
She was such a fool that she didn't remember any of the above details at the critical moment.
"Even if I sign it, I can still tear it up! Do you think that such a big thing as divorce can be easily divorced if you want to?!" Pei Chi sneered and ordered Chu Xia: "If you don't want to go to court, get in the car now.
!”
"I'm just having a meal with my friends. If you can, catch me and accuse me of adultery!" Chu Xia didn't take it seriously. After she replied, she walked away quickly and soon left Pei Chi's sight.
When she got on the subway, she saw Pei Chi following suit.
She looked away angrily, not wanting to see this person, but he just wanted to hang out in front of her. How could there be such an annoying person?!
"Secretary Chu, don't be like this. We still have an affair after all. Even if you treat me as a stranger, you can't erase the fact that I am your husband." Seeing Chu Xia not looking at her, Pei Chi simply stood opposite her and pinched her.
He touched her chin, forcing her to face his existence.
Damn woman, does it make sense to go to an old lover?!
