C249 I'll Let You down Eventually

Xiao Yichen raised his eyebrows and said in a provocative tone. He looked at Zhang Chen with a smile that wasn't a smile.

Zhang Chen lit a cigarette in frustration. He had just spat out a puff of smoke when he heard footsteps coming from the corridor behind him.

Then there was a hoarse sobbing sound. He looked back and saw Pei Luoluo's teary eyes. Her face was full of tears and she sobbed weakly, "Mrs Zhang, I am hungry."

The two men in the living room were slightly stunned. They had thought that Pei Luoluo would be very sad because of Liu Sheng's change. The way she chose to vent her sadness, according to Zhang Chen's understanding, was to immerse herself in sorrow.

However, when she said that she was hungry with red and swollen eyes, not to mention Zhang Chen, even Xiao Yichen was a little surprised.

"Old Li! Old Li! Let the kitchen make something to eat!" Mrs Zhang heard the sound and ran to Uncle Lee who was resting in the back garden.

Uncle Lee liked to listen to the radio in the back garden when he was free, or wander around the community.

It was very big inside. Every noodle house was operated in the neighborhood. They could buy anything they wanted without going out of the gate of the neighborhood, including hotels, playground, theme restaurants and so on.

Therefore, Uncle Lee would occasionally go shopping at night. He would buy a toy for his grandson whenever he saw it. If he had known that Li Rui had been married for a long time, he would have bought one for his grandson. It was just that he had not seen a child for a long time. This was because his daughter-in-law had just gotten pregnant. Uncle Lee could not wait any longer.

Fortunately, Uncle Lee did not go out today. Mrs Zhang asked him to come back later and pulled Pei Luoluo to eat a few red dates.

"Mrs Zhang, I don't want to eat red dates. Isn't that because I'm angry?" Pei Luoluo puckered her lips. These few days, she had been eating so much every day. In the past, she had not seen many people who did not like to eat, but now she really hated eating.

"Young Grandmother, your weak body has not recovered very well. Red dates replenish your Qi and blood. It will be fine as long as you eat less." Mrs Zhang did not have any intention of backing down. She took a few red dates and saw Pei Luoluo eat it before leaving.

Seeing Mrs Zhang's care, Pei Luoluo suddenly missed her parents who lived in the Morning Bay.

Xiao Yichen frowned slightly. He got up and walked forward to reach his hand towards Pei Luoluo's forehead. His deep and gentle eyes gave Pei Luoluo a sense of peace and stability. It was as if as long as he was there, he could survive anything.

"The characteristic of being able to eat and sleep has not changed." However, on that rare gentle face, his thin lips opened and his tone was indeed indifferent.

Indeed, this was Xiao Yichen. He did not forget to give Pei Luoluo a loud and clear dream back to reality no matter where he went.

"But it can show how much I will raise you."

Pei Luoluo pouted and rolled her eyes at Xiao Yichen. The depressed look on her face just now had slightly eased up. It seemed that she was in a better mood now.

In fact, people had different meanings in their hearts when they felt sad. The way to vent was definitely different as well. However, Pei Luoluo, who was a professional, could not escape the grief of the people around her. This was human emotion. No one could escape.

But at this moment, she had Xiao Yichen and Zhang Chen by her side. There were also many people by her side who were willing to protect her. That sadness would be alleviated, although it would still be painful and sad. But in the end, she could still cry and release her sadness in that warm and safe embrace. Pei Luoluo felt that she was really lucky.

Thinking of this, Pei Luoluo smiled and sank her whole body into the arms of the man in front of her who seemed cold but his eyes were always locked on her.

Xiao Yichen was suddenly hugged and his hands stopped in the air. Very quickly, he hugged tightly and gently stroked his slightly trembling back.

This woman had been pregnant for more than three months. Why was she still so thin?

"Have you two finished showing off your affection?" Not far away, a very unhappy voice made this pair of husband and wife hug as if no one else was present. At the same time, they looked towards the source of the voice.

"You have eyes on your body. Don't tell me you won't look?" Xiao Yichen replied coldly, but he also let go of Pei Luoluo, who was in his arms. He wrapped his arms around her waist and walked towards the sofa bed in the living room.

It was almost ten o'clock after the supper. Xiao Yichen wanted to ask Zhang Chen to leave tomorrow, but he asked Xiao Yichen to drink with him.

Pei Luoluo saw the two of them suddenly walk out of the door as if they were both worried about something. She could not help but feel uneasy.

She did not know how long she slept on the sofa in a daze. Pei Luoluo felt her body rise into the air. There was a faint smell of strong liquor coming from her nose.

"You drank..." Pei Luoluo hugged the person's neck and whispered softly.

"Yes, I drank a little." Xiao Yichen answered straightforwardly, but his voice was somewhat hoarse.

When Xiao Yichen finished washing up, Pei Luoluo had already fallen asleep on the bed. Ever since she suspected that she had eaten and slept a lot, she had never been fat. The past few days were still alright, but these few days she seemed to have lost weight.

Xiao Yichen looked at the person sleeping soundly on the bed with some heartache. There was a trace of helplessness and heartache in his eyes.

"In the end, I have to bear you. Will you blame me for not giving you enough tenderness?"

What answered him was the loneliness of the night. The wind brushed past the sound of the window, as well as the different frequency of heartbeats.

After resting at home for two days, Pei Luoluo and Xiao Yichen went to work one after the other.

Xiao Yichen had just walked to the office when Lee Xue followed closely behind him into the office.

"Director Xiao, Director Han is here." Lee Xue's voice was not loud. Even though it was in the chairman's office with good soundproofing, she was cautious when doing things.

"You can't hold it in so soon?" Xiao Yichen sneered. His lips drew a mocking arc. The entire large office was invaded by the chill early in the morning.

"During the meeting the day before yesterday, many shareholders were dissatisfied with your decision. The development of the Beibin Road was a profitable business. Now, because the materials provided by the Han's were not enough, many of them had to be dismantled and rebuilt. The losses were not small. " Lee Xue frowned and looked a little nervous.

After the last meeting, Xiao Yichen basically did not say anything like that. He only saw that all the shareholders present were in an uproar and coldly listened to their complaints.

There were even words saying that he, the newly appointed director, did not know how to operate and that he had lost tens of millions as soon as he came.

"First of all, you have to understand that the Han's is the one who is losing money. We are the ones who have lost money. Furthermore, my work period has been pushed forward by three months from the very beginning. In order to not delay or even finish early. Calculating it, the Quality Inspection Department also gave the results in advance. Even if it's rebuilt, it won't delay the construction."

Xiao Yichen finally spoke amid the whispers below. His stern tone displayed his domineering manner as a CEO. His words suppressed the chaotic situation below.
