Chapter 289 I should have known better and wouldn’t have asked
Ye Feifei did not directly tell Lin Zhiyi where the restaurant was, she only said that she wanted to give everyone a surprise.
Lin Zhiyi was already prepared to bleed heavily, so he didn't ask any more questions.
As her work was about to end, she received an invitation from Sang Li.
"I'll pick you up later?"
"No, thanks to you, I got a big bonus and I'm going to treat my colleagues to a meal."
"Then it's not right for you not to treat your sponsor to a meal, right?"
"Take a rest tomorrow and I'll do it for you."
Lin Zhiyi typed very quickly and sent it out without any hesitation.
Ever since she followed Gong Shiyan's advice, she has accepted Sang Li's pursuit calmly.
Although they did not get together immediately, the two are currently in contact tacitly.
It was the same as the pursuit process of most ordinary people, chatting together, occasionally going out for dinner together, and then chatting.
Such days are dull, but they make Lin Zhiyi feel very relaxed.
On the screen, Sang Li's end kept showing that he was typing.
After a long time, his answer popped up.
"it is good."
Lin Zhiyi found it funny when she thought of the scene of Sang Li sitting at the table deleting and cutting.
He is quite decisive when he works.
Just as I was thinking about it, Ye Feifei's voice sounded beside me.
"Zhiyi, let's go."
Lin Zhiyi came back to her senses and realized that it was time to get off work.
She nodded, stood up, and asked, "Where is the restaurant? I'll take a taxi there."
Ye Feifei patted her snow-white coat and said, "No, you can take my car."
Lin Zhiyi looked at her suspiciously, but at this time most of the colleagues in the office had already driven away in their own cars.
She could only politely say, "Thank you."
On the way to the restaurant, Ye Feifei made two turns and went directly to a sparsely populated road, then stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.
Lin Zhiyi's body was suspended in the air and she subconsciously held on to her seat belt.
Ye Feifei pushed her sunglasses and raised her lips, full of arrogance and disdain.
"Are you scared? I thought you were so brave. You dare to steal anything."
Lin Zhiyi held onto the car door, steadied himself, and then turned his head slightly to stare at Ye Feifei: "Have we met before?"
Ye Feifei just smiled and didn't answer.
The next second, she slammed on the brakes.
Because of inertia, Lin Zhiyi's head almost hit the windshield, but fortunately she grabbed the car door in advance.
Ye Feifei burst into laughter: "You look quite funny in this miserable state."
Lin Zhiyi took a deep breath, smoothed her hair, and reminded calmly: "Ms. Ye, you'd better think of a perfect reason immediately, otherwise you are speeding and stopped in the middle of the road, which is a violation of traffic laws. This is not a foreign country. Even if there are few people, it does not mean that there is no surveillance."
As soon as he finished speaking, the police officer had stopped nearby.
Ye Feifei couldn't laugh anymore and asked directly: "Why didn't you remind me?"
Lin Zhiyi laughed angrily: "You didn't even give me a chance."
After a round of questioning by the traffic police, Ye Feifei's car was confiscated, and she stomped her high heels in anger.
The traffic policeman looked down and said, "Don't wear such high shoes while driving. It's easy to have an accident."
Ye Feifei was holding a long list of tickets, and her nose was about to burst into flames.
Lin Zhiyi stood nearby and hailed a car: "Let's go, I'll treat you to a taxi."
After getting in the car, the driver pressed the empty license plate.
"where to?"
Ye Feifei took off her sunglasses and glanced at Lin Zhiyi: "Yiyuan."
Lin Zhiyi frowned and tightened her bag with her hands.
Ye Feifei smiled and said, "What's wrong? You look very nervous."
"No."
Lin Zhiyi looked out the car window, feeling a little depressed.
Could it be that this Ye Feifei is also the love interest that Gong Chen encountered abroad?
Gong Shiyan clearly said that Gong Chen studied very hard abroad and completed many of his academic tasks ahead of schedule. How could he have time to flirt with a woman?
……
Yiyuan.
When Lin Zhiyi and Ye Feifei entered the box, the other colleagues had already sat down.
"Zhiyi, Feifei, come and sit down, why are you two so slow?"
Ye Feifei felt a little embarrassed and her face turned gloomy.
Lin Zhiyi explained: "Ms. Ye just returned to China and is not familiar with the route."
Colleagues didn't take it seriously and consoled him: "Just open more and order food quickly, we are starving."
Lin Zhiyi took the menu with a smile, and whispered a warning as Ye Feifei sat down next to her.
"Don't think I'll be grateful to you for this. I despise women like you who are cheap and want everything."
Ye Feifei just wanted to provoke Lin Zhiyi, but who knew that she would not accept it at all.
Instead, he turned around and discussed with other colleagues what to eat.
Ye Feifei snorted coldly, took out her cell phone and sent something.
Order good dishes and everyone will have fun.
Ye Feifei slowly stood up after her phone screen suddenly lit up.
"Zhiyi, we are so happy today, how can we not have wine? Why don't you go and pick a bottle of wine?"
Before Lin Zhiyi could speak, several male colleagues had already started to flatter her.
"Ms. Ye is really thoughtful."
"I was wondering why something seemed to be missing. Zhiyi has been promoted to a full-time employee now, so he doesn't need the money for the wine."
After that, everyone looked at Lin Zhiyi.
Lin Zhiyi didn't need to offend her colleagues for a bottle of wine, so she stood up and said, "I'll ask the waiter to bring the wine list over."
Ye Feifei stopped him and said, "The wine list is just some ordinary wines. I heard that the Third Master built a beautiful wine cellar for Yiyuan, and all the good wines are in it. Zhiyi, don't you know?"
"I don't know." Lin Zhiyi said directly.
"That's even better. Since you're treating us today, you should be the one to choose the wine and take the opportunity to visit the place."
Ye Feifei walked straight up to Lin Zhiyi and pushed her.
The waiter also made a gesture of invitation: "Miss, please."
Only then did Lin Zhiyi realize that Ye Feifei had set a trap for her.
Now she was in a difficult situation and could only bite the bullet and follow the waiter away.
Behind her, Ye Feifei clasped her hands over her chest and smiled.
……
Lin Zhiyi followed the waiter and walked along the corridor. The lake was tranquil under the moonlight.
She stared at the lake for a few seconds. The swaying ripples made her feel inexplicably uneasy.
She forced herself to look away, and when she was about to turn, the waiter next to her accidentally pushed her.
She ran head-on into a man who was also turning.
With a bang, the black cane in the man's hand fell to the ground, and then with another thud, the cane rolled into the lake.
Before Lin Zhiyi could react, she placed one hand on the pillar beside her.
The tall figure stood in front of her like a towering mountain.
A familiar breath, even if Lin Zhiyi didn't look up, he knew who was in front of him.
She pursed her lips and subconsciously tried to turn around, but someone blocked her on the other side with an arm.
Leave her with no way to escape.
The man's cold voice was filled with a hint of repressed emotion.
"You hit someone and then ran away? Don't you have anything to say?"
He looked at Lin Zhiyi, his eyes gradually became hot, and even his breath made her feel hot.
She tried to stay calm, but when she looked up at him, her hands in her sleeves were slightly clenched.
"Why the cane?"
"Care about me?" Gong Chen's eyes darkened.
"Third Master, you are lame, I am afraid you might try to scam me."
"..."
Ah.
I should have known better and wouldn’t have asked.
