Long Fei thought that he had been quite good to Mu Zixi recently. Although he had not truly communicated with her, he had undoubtedly given his heart. At least in the past 27 years, he had never been so concerned about a person or a person's affairs. He cared about her food and her feelings. Even her mother, who worked in his house, had never been treated as a servant.
If he could be honest with Mu Zixi, would she confess to her spying on him or stop? Would she help him deal with Lu Wanli instead? Long Fei was very curious. He was eager to know the answer.
Long Fei knew that Mu Zixi would only report to him when he reached home every day. Therefore, Mu Zixi was on the way and should not have reported to him yet. This was the best time to call. He immediately dialed Mu Zixi's phone.
"Zixi, the contract for the land in Heming District is in the company. Help me send it over now. I need it urgently. I'll send the address to your phone.”
"Alright."
Hearing Mu Zixi's agreement, he immediately hung up.
Mu Zixi was waiting at a red light when her phone rang. When she saw that it was Long Fei, she picked up the phone. When she heard that there was an emergency, she immediately rode Hei Zi back. Soon, she arrived at the company and found the document. She looked at the text message. Long Fei had already sent her the address. He had also added a message saying that it was urgent and that he wanted to thank her. Mu Zixi opened the Baidu map and found the place. After sorting out the route and memorizing the map, he rode his bike to deliver it.
After riding for about twenty minutes, she found the location that Long Fei had designated. It was a very exquisite high-end single condominium building. Pure blue walls and transparent glass were her favorite blue house. However, she could not care less about it. She had to hurry up and complete the task that Long Fei had given her.
On the second floor of Unit 2, she didn't know if she had found the right place. Although she was worried, she still pressed the bell. She was originally an impatient person. When others said that she was anxious, she was even more anxious.
Soon, the door opened. It was Long Fei.
"Did you bring the documents?" Long Fei pretended to be very anxious when he saw Mu Zixi.
"Yes, I did." As Mu Zixi spoke, she hurriedly went to her backpack to retrieve the documents.
"Go into the house first. I'll make some changes and then sign it. You still have to help me deliver it.”Long Fei said as he pulled Mu Zixi into the house. Then, he closed the door.
Mu Zixi handed the document to Long Fei and stood there, waiting for Long Fei's next instructions.
"Zixi, take a seat first. I have to change the document. It won't be that fast."
"Oh, okay." Mu Zixi could only sit down. Long Fei took the documents and pretended to read them seriously.
Mu Zixi was bored and looked around Long Fei's house. Although he was a man, the house was especially clean and tidy. As a girl, she could not find any fault with it. After looking around, Long Fei was still not well, so she was a little anxious.
She looked at the time. It was past the time to report to Lu Wanli. What should she do? No matter what, she had to do her routine every day and report to Lu Wanli. Otherwise, she would fire her. This was what Lu Wanli told her when she received her official salary the next month. She couldn't report it in the apartment. What if Long Fei found out? She really wanted to go out. However, Long Fei was very busy and did not seem to have the time to take care of her. What if she went out at this time and could not come in? In the end, Mu Zixi thought that it was more appropriate to go to the bathroom. If the door was closed quietly, Long Fei probably wouldn't be able to hear it.
Mu Zixi went to the bathroom uneasily and took out his phone. Should she report to Lu Wanli about the change in the contract? Also, should she tell him about what happened at Longfei Apartments? After hesitating, Mu Zixi called Lu Wanli.
"Chairman Lu, it's me, Xiao Mu. I was delayed today. I'm sorry.”Mu Zixi tried his best to lower his voice.
"Yes, I am. Tell me."
"Manager Long came to work on time today. After he got off work, he asked me to deliver the contract at the last minute. It's from Heming District.”
"Okay, the contract with Gu Chengshu?"
"Yes."
"Did he say what he wanted to change?"
"He didn't say."
"Find a chance to take a look later and tell me what you've changed.”
"Alright." Mu Zixi replied, but she couldn't say it in her heart. He could just lie and say that he didn't see it.
"That's it then. Call me when you see it.”
"Alright."
"Yes." Mu Zixi sucked in a breath of cold air and hung up the phone. She calmed herself down before walking out of the bathroom.
Long Fei had seen Mu Zixi enter the washroom through the mirror. His heart ached a little. He smiled sadly and decided to give Mu Zixi another chance.
Mu Zixi had just walked out when Long Fei stood up and stretched out his hand." I'm finally done editing it. I'm so tired."
"Manager Long, do you want me to send it over now?”
"I'll ask Gu Chengshu. Wait a moment.”Long Fei said as he typed in front of the computer. When Mu Zixi walked closer, he said that there was no need. Gu Chengshu had some urgent matters to attend to, so he changed his schedule and asked me to give it to him tomorrow.
"Oh, then I'll go home first."
"Zi Xi, wait a moment. I have something to say to you. Sit down first.”
"Alright." Mu Zixi sat down nervously. Looking at Long Fei's expression, she felt that there was nothing good about Long Fei keeping her here.
Long Fei took out a bottle of fruit juice from the fridge and handed it to Mu Zixi.""It's time to get off work, and I still need you to make a trip. Thank you for your hard work.”
"It's nothing, thank you." Mu Zixi took the drink and placed it on the table.
"Zi Xi, I did have some prejudice against you before. Because you graduated from that university, I don't know how they recruited you. But later, I found that your work ability was not bad, and you were also a good person, so I accepted you and quickly transferred you to a professional.”
"Thank you." Mu Zixi did not know why Long Fei suddenly told her this. Her heart was in a mess.
"You don't have to be so polite with me. After you saved me last time, I treated you as a close friend. You should know very well how I treat you, right?”
"Yes, thank you for your concern and care.”
"I told you, you don't have to be so polite with me. I see that you're usually very thrifty. Since we're friends, I want to know if you have any difficulties in your life.”
Hearing Long Fei's words, Mu Zixi felt cold sweat on her back. Could it be that Long Fei knew about what she had reported to Lu Wanli? Could it be that Lu Wanli had told Long Fei, or that Long Fei was testing her? What should she do now? If she admitted it, would he chase her away immediately? Would Lu Wanli chase him away? Left or right, Mu Zixi instinctively chose to hide. She probably felt that dealing with Long Fei was easier than dealing with Lu Wanli. After all, she had saved him. Perhaps he would not care so much about her on account of saving his life.
"I don't have any difficulties. Thank you for your concern, Manager Long.”Mu Zixi said in a firm tone.
"I'm telling you this because I really treat you as a friend. I hope you can treat me as a friend too, not a cold boss.”
"Thank you. I sincerely treat you as a friend. It's really not difficult.”
"Alright then, you can go home!" Long Fei's tone was calm on the surface, but he was very hurt on the inside. A sense of defeat and being deceived made him almost unable to tolerate it.
Mu Zixi walked out of the apartment nervously. She only heaved a sigh of relief when she was outside. It seemed that her insistence just now was right. There should not be any big trouble for the time being.
Long Fei saw that she had gone far away and ran to the bathroom. He took out the recorder from the panda's stomach. When he heard Mu Zixi's cautious report, he gritted his teeth in hatred. It seemed that he had overestimated himself. He was sincere to her, but her heart was still with Lu Wanli. Perhaps she wanted to eat both sides. This little b * tch. Long Fei put the recording instrument back into the bear's stomach hatefully.
After a long time, he felt his heartache ease a little. Just as he was about to go out to eat, his phone rang. He saw that it was Luo Yijie and answered her call readily. Although Luo Yijie was a little unruly and willful, she was not as hypocritical as Mu Zixi, who could lie through her teeth. Moreover, Luo Yijie would definitely not help Lu Wanli deal with him.
"Fei, shall we have dinner together tonight? I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you.”Seeing that Long Fei answered the phone in time, Luo Yijie immediately said coquettishly. Ever since she discovered that Long Fei's attitude towards Mu Zixi had changed, she had a deep sense of crisis. Last time, not only did Liu Songguang fail to chase Mu Zixi away, but he was also warned by Long Fei, which increased her sense of crisis.
"Alright, where are we going? I'm just about to go eat."
"That's great. Let the flowers bloom in the warmth of spring!”
"Alright, let's talk when we get there." After saying that, Long Fei hung up the phone. Ever since he went to Luo Yijie's house, Long Fei had been using busy as an excuse to not ask Luo Yijie out. He probably felt uncomfortable seeing Luo Yijie. Today, he was heartbroken. He wanted to be with Luo Yijie. Although Mu Zixi couldn't see it, he felt that she could sense it. She would be sad and angry, and he felt happy. Mu Zixi's actions today had disappointed him greatly. It had angered a certain nerve of his. He wanted to make her regret it.
As soon as Long Fei arrived at the door of Spring Blossoms, Luo Yijie rushed over to pull him.
"Fei, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for more than ten minutes.”
"I'm sorry, there's a traffic jam." What Long Fei wanted to do now was to treat Luo Yijie well. He wanted Luo Yijie to go to his company so that she could anger Mu Zixi, that insincere woman.
"Oh, it's okay. I understand. Let's go in!”Luo Yijie replied considerately. She thought that Long Fei was in a good mood today, so she tried to sound him out to see how much Mu Zixi meant to him.
"Come, come, let's sit here.”Long Fei followed Luo Yijie into a private room.
"Please give me a serving of Dongpo Pork, a serving of three-striped fish, a serving of teppanyaki beef, and a serving of stir-fried lotus beans.”Luo Yijie placed the menu on the table after ordering. Long Fei was a little unhappy. Although Luo Yijie always ordered his favorite dishes when they were together, he was still dissatisfied. Ever since he ate with Mu Zixi, he felt that he no longer liked certain things that he was used to.
Luo Yijie seemed to see that Long Fei was unhappy, so she quickly pushed the menu over and said,""Look, do you have anything else you want?”
"No need." Long Fei was initially angry, but after hearing her words, his anger dissipated. Although this woman was proud, she still had him in her eyes.
"Fei, are you in a bad mood today?" Luo Yijie asked with concern when she saw that Long Fei's expression was not good.
"No, I've been too busy recently and I'm a little tired.”
"Work is important, but health is equally important. You must treat yourself well.”Luo Yijie knew how to care about people. So she knew how to say such things. Ever since her mother said that she couldn't speak, she had reflected on herself. She didn't like Long Fei, so was it because her words weren't nice? She had always thought that there was no art in speaking. She could just say whatever she thought of. But her mother's words hurt her. She had read some books on social interaction, and she didn't expect them to be so effective. In the past, she had always focused on herself when she spoke. Now that she understood that she was focusing on the other party, the other party was more willing to accept her.
Luo Yijie rarely cared about people. Long Fei was touched by her words today and said sincerely,""Got it. Thank you."
Luo Yijie was very happy to see Long Fei smile. She felt that there was a chance for Mu Zixi's matter, so she deliberated and said it.
"Is it because the assistant is not working hard that you're so tired?”
"She's fine. It's none of her business."
"Oh, Fei, you are too kind. If she could help you share more of the burden, you wouldn't be so tired. I've seen her a few times, and I can tell that she doesn't know how to work.”Luo Yijie said as she carefully observed Long Fei's expression. Of course, she had learned this from books. Seeing that Long Fei's expression did not change, she felt that there was a need to continue speaking. She did not want to mess up the date that she had gotten so hard to get.
"What you said makes sense." Long Fei saw that Luo Yijie had something to say and wanted to know what she wanted to say, so he agreed.
"That's right. Mu Zixi is a snitch all day long. How can such a person with crooked thoughts concentrate on doing things well? I also heard that she was spying on you and reported you to Lu Wanli.”Luo Yijie saw that Long Fei agreed, so she opened her mouth and said.
"I'll tidy her up. Come and eat. Don't mention her.”Long Fei said as he gave Luo Yijie a piece of lotus bean that had just been served on the table.
"You're right. Thinking about her makes me feel disappointed.”Luo Yijie originally wanted Long Fei to chase Mu Zixi away, but after hearing Long Fei's words, she had no choice but to give up.
"In the future, if you want me to accompany you for dinner, come to my company to find me.”
"Really? That's great. You said it yourself. Don't go back on your word.”
"It's just the days that aren't too busy. We'll talk about the future later.”
"Alright, I have good eyesight. Don't worry, I won't go if you're busy.”Luo Yijie was very happy to hear what Longfei said. She thought that Liu Songming didn't invite him for nothing. Longfei had changed so much for her so quickly. Since he had asked for it himself, it would be much more convenient to ask him out in the future.
When Mu Zixi returned home, she called Lu Wanli and said that Long Fei did not let her see the revised contract. He might be suspicious. Lu Wanli said unhappily that it was fine and asked her to keep an eye on Long Fei. Mu Zixi heaved a sigh of relief. She barely managed to deal with Lu Wanli, but she did not know how to face Long Fei. At night, she tossed and turned in bed and had insomnia again.
The next day, Mu Zixi went to work with a pair of deep panda eyes under the frost. She tried her best to remain silent and work harder. She did not dare to ask about the documents at all. She also avoided Long Fei if she could and did not touch him if she could.
Because she didn't sleep well last night, Mu Zixi didn't have the appetite to eat Chinese food. She just wanted to rest for a while. It wasn't easy for her to make it until noon. She killed the virus on her computer and lay down to take a nap.
However, Luo Yijie's straightforward words disturbed her heart.
"Fei, where are we going for lunch today?”
"Beautiful fragrance."
"Aiyo, isn't this your assistant? She collapsed as soon as she got off work. She didn't rest well last night. She didn't eat lunch. Does she have the energy to work in the afternoon? No wonder you're so tired.”
Luo Yijie's sharp words clearly reached Mu Zixi's ears, making her feel uncomfortable all over. However, she continued to pretend to be asleep and ignored them.
"That's her business. We don't have to worry about it. If she doesn't do her job well, I'll let her go. Let's go eat.”
Hearing the footsteps of the two people walking away, Mu Zixi's originally calm heart was stirred up by layers of waves. She was no longer sleepy. He was just pondering over the words of the two people just now.
She suddenly realized that everything was back to square one. It turned out that she had never really known Long Fei. In the past, she had sincerely hoped that Long Fei would return to being cold and aloof. Now, it was indeed the case. However, she felt uneasy and a trace of sadness mixed in her heart.
Perhaps they could all return to the beginning, but she could not go back. She did not know when, but she was still lying on the ground, and tears were flowing down her face.
Seeing that it was almost time for work, she immediately tidied herself up.
Long Fei no longer interacted with Mu Zixi. He only worked and smoked twice as much.
The time to get off work ended with everyone having their own thoughts. Although Mu Zixi felt uncomfortable, it was fortunate that everything was fine.
