C131 The Final Pride

After Fenng Yan finished dealing with the last bit of documents, he leaned back in the office chair and closed his eyes to take a nap. After coming here, he had been working non-stop. Due to the time difference, his body was very tired.

Pei Ying, who was outside the office, greedily looked at Fenng Yan's side face through the glass. She reached out her hand and traced his face in the air. She imagined herself standing beside her and suddenly took back her hand and lowered her head.

Sensing the gaze behind him, Fenng Yan opened his eyes and turned the chair. He saw Pei Ying who was not far away and nodded slightly. Pei Ying showed a faint smile and pointed at her watch. Only then did he realize that there was no one in the office. Looking at the time, he realized that it had been a long time since he got off work.

Fenng Yan picked up his clothes and walked out of the office. He said apologetically: "Sorry, I forgot the time. "

Pei Ying shook her head. "It's nothing. I just finished dealing with it. It's late and we didn't have dinner together. "

"Forget it. Let's go back to the hotel first. We've been busy for the whole day. Let's go back first. After a hour, I still have a video conference. " Fenng Yan waved his hand. The nap just now did not alleviate his fatigue. After he went back, he still had to have a meeting with the manager of the country. He did not have extra time to eat dinner.

Seeing him work so hard, Pei Ying's heart ached. The only thing she could do was to stay by his side. The hotel where the two of them stayed was not very far from the company. They sat in the office for a long time and their bodies could not relax. The two of them unanimously chose to walk back.

Night began to fall and the neon lights on the streets lit up the entire road. A couple walked past the two of them and accidentally bumped into Pei Ying.

Fenng Yan helped her up, but because the two of them were too intimate, he frowned and asked, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, but they are full of youth. No matter what, they don't feel bored. " Pei Ying looked at the two of them who were leaving and smiled.

"You are envious?"

Pei Ying nodded her head and did not hide it as she admitted, "Yes. After all, I am not young anymore, am I not?"

Fenng Yan did not answer. He returned to the hotel and the two of them went back to their rooms. Because of the couple, they wasted some time. Fenng Yan rushed early and contacted the staff in the country to start the meeting.

Not long after the meeting ended, the doorbell rang. Fenng Yan put down the coffee in his hand and walked to the door. He opened the door and saw Pei Ying standing there in a red dress with a bottle of red wine.

"What is it? You don't welcome me? I just want to celebrate the success of this job with you, and my wine is pretty good. It would be a pity if I drank it all by myself. " As she spoke, Pei Ying minded her own business and walked past him to the counter at the side. She familiarly found two red wine glasses and sat on the sofa.

"You are very familiar with my place. "

Pei Ying took a sip of the wine and smiled. "Are you too busy? My room is the same as yours. " She put down the wine glass and filled it up for him. "Try it. This is my collection. "

Fenng Yan took it and shook the wine glass. The red liquid moved back and forth. For some reason, he thought of Ye Han. Previously, because of her mother's matter, the two of them had a very bad time. Even after he had left for so long, he did not even have a phone call.

Seeing Fenng Yan staring blankly at the wine glass, Pei Ying walked up to him and patted him, "What happened to you?"

"Nothing. I just suddenly thought of Ye Han. " Fenng Yan drank a mouthful of red wine. The alcohol entered his stomach and gave him a slight warmth.

Pei Ying did not think that the banquet would mention Ye Han to her. Her hand that was holding the wine cup trembled slightly and she unnaturally turned her body around. She walked to the window and pretended to ask casually, "What is the matter between you and her?"

"It is nothing. It is just a small misunderstanding and I cannot figure out her thoughts. " Fenng Yan lowered his head and fiddled with the wine cup in his hand as he said in a conflicted manner. "Is it that all women. . . Are so hard to understand?"

"No. " Pei Ying denied it and subconsciously held the wine glass tightly. She walked in front of him and said seriously: "I am not. "

Pei Ying's heart could not help pounding when she got close to Fenng Yan. She was nervous and did not know what to say. She bit her lower lip and said, "Fenng Yan. I, I like you. It has been many years. "

Pei Ying's sudden confession caught Fenng Yan by surprise. He subconsciously took a step back and pulled away from her. He frowned and said, I. . . I like you. "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Some words could not be explained, while others could not be exposed.

She combed her hair and smiled unnaturally. In a low voice, she said, "I know. It's just that these words have been buried in my heart for too long. If I don't say them now, I probably won't have a chance in the future. "

She had always liked him. However, it was not that no one knew about this matter. If he had not told her about Ye Han today, she would have happened to drink some wine and said this sentence with the help of the alcohol. She was afraid that she would never say it.

"I have accompanied you for so many years. Today, even if I tell you, I don't know what you want to tell me. I just want you to know my feelings. "

She knew that Fenng Yan was married. Under such circumstances, no matter what she said or did, it would be a hindrance to him and herself. However, she didn't want to stay with him without knowing why.

These words had cleared one of her worries. She didn't want much. She just wanted to stay by his side. "I know you are married. But I don't know if you're happy or not. I couldn't help but tell you this after hearing what you said today. "1

"Thank you for your good intentions, but I'm doing very well. " Fenng Yan knew that she was a proud person. There were some things that she could not say. She would understand. "We are good working partners, that's all. "

Pei Ying was stunned there. She stared at him for a long time before she reacted. He had rejected her. She raised her head and drank the wine in the cup to hide the panic in her heart. "It's late. I should go back. "

Putting down the wine cup, she took a deep breath and pretended to be generous as she smiled, "I will leave the wine to you. I am leaving. "

Finishing, Pei Ying raised her head and straightened her chest. Step by step, she walked out. She also had her pride. After being rejected, she turned around and left elegantly. It was the only thing she could do for herself.

In the future, the two of them would not meet again.

Until the door behind her was tightly closed, the tears that she held back fell from her face. However, she did not allow herself to lower her head, even if she was already injured.

The next day, Ye Han took Shao Qingyun's card to the bank early in the morning to withdraw the money and prepare to return Ye's father's loan, but with such a large sum of money in her hands, she was still a little worried.

She hurriedly walked out of the bank and looked up to see Shao Qingyun. She was very surprised, "Why are you here?"

"I am worried that you will take such a large sum of money and go there yourself. I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I followed you out. I will go with you. " Those loan sharks were people who lived on the edge of a knife. Ye Han going alone was not safe.

"Okay, then I will have to trouble you. " Ye Han thanked him and got into his car.
