C9 The Marriage of Li Ai

After lunch, Su Rui started to organize the sales figures. A lot of the raw data needed to be found in the library and processed into a computer. She worked at full speed, focusing on her work. Even in this highly efficient state, by the time she got off work, she had less than half the data she needed.

Su Rui had to make herself a strong cup of coffee and prepared to stay up all night.

At around eight in the morning, the colleagues who were working overtime left the office. Su Rui was the only one left in the huge office building. Su Rui persisted for a while longer, and when it was eleven in the evening, she finally managed to compile all the information into an excel file.

Su Rui was familiar with the rest of the analytical work and should be able to finish it in two hours.

Su Rui heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did she realize how hungry she was. He hadn't eaten much in the afternoon since he was beaten up by Soong Lili. Counting the time now, he hadn't eaten for ten hours.

Su Rui stood up, stretched her limbs, and locked the office door. She planned to go downstairs for a midnight snack before returning to work.

Anyway, she wasn't going home today. Both Lele and his mother were not at home. The house was deserted, not much different from the office.

The feeling of hunger became more pronounced when I got down from the office building, but all the nearby restaurants were closed, and only KFC was strong. However, Su Rui did not want to choose KFC out of the unpleasant memory of the morning.

She decided to walk a little farther, letting the cool night air blow against her already dizzy head. There were fewer cars on the street than during the day, and the usual hustle and bustle was gone. Su Rui had walked a long way without realizing it. By the time she realized it, she was in the bustling district of the night market: a cluster of bars, nightclubs, and restaurants, and even at one or two o'clock in the morning there was an endless stream of famous cars and beauties.

At the very least, he could have a good meal here to replenish the energy that had been consumed.

Su Rui looked around at the surrounding restaurants and finally decided to go to the other side of the street to have some coffee and a steak. She was about to cross the street when she saw a familiar black Mercedes pass by her and stop in front of the entrance to the Kwai Wai Hotel.

Su Rui searched through her memories of the car. Her gaze also remained on the car. As expected, the car door was pushed open from the inside. A person who surprised Su Rui appeared in her sight.

It turned out to be Lee Ai's husband, the young master of the Shang family. Shang Tiannan.

Actually, it wasn't that surprising to see Shang Tiannan. Merchants were mainly in the hotel industry, and this grand and imposing hotel was a business under the name of the merchant. Su Rui vaguely remembered that she had a free hotel room card that Lee Ai had casually given her.

What really shocked Su Rui was the woman beside Shang Tiannan. She was a tall and beautiful young girl, perhaps only seventeen or eighteen years old. In fact, her appearance and temperament were on a completely different level from Lee Ai's. However, the girl's actions were filled with an overbearing sense of youth.

At this moment, the girl was holding Shang Tiannan's arm, her whole body was glued to it. Her attitude was intimate and warm.

Su Rui was a little dazed. She wasn't sure if she should go over and confirm it. Or would he turn around and leave just because he didn't see anything?

While Su Rui was in a dilemma, Shang Tiannan walked into the hotel with the girl on his arm.

Su Rui stayed where she was for a while longer before dialing Lee Ai's number.

On the other end of the phone, Lee Ai's voice was sleepy. Apparently, she had just been woken up by the ringing of the phone.

"Su Rui, what's the matter?"

"About that, about that, I just want to ask... I would like to ask, how is your relationship with Tiannan now? " Su Rui had just finished her questions when she wanted to bite off her tongue.

Asking someone about their relationship for no reason at all was simply too gossipy.

However, Lee Ai did not make a sound. The sound of the electric currents in the microphone was very calm.

Su Rui laughed in a mocking manner. Just as she was about to say that she was having a fit and make Lee Ai ignore her, then hang up the phone, Lee Ai asked, "Did you see something?"

This time, it was Su Rui's turn to be silent.

"He has more than ten lovers outside, the youngest is only 16 years old, the oldest is over 30 years old, and the one you saw, how old was she and how beautiful was she?" Lee Ai's attitude was very relaxed, as if she was buying vegetables at a market.

"Lee Ai!" Although Su Rui was slightly worried, she was also surprised when she heard Lee Ai's words. She did not know what to do, "Then you … "Don't tell me you …"

"You want to ask me, why can I stand his contact with flowers?" Lee Ai chuckled, "I married him as soon as I graduated and I have never set foot in society. Now that I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars every month, what kind of job can support my current expenses? Su Rui, I'm not as brave as you, and I won't fight like you. So, as long as he can guarantee that I'll live and eat, I won't divorce him, and I won't even try to meddle in his affairs. No matter what, thank you for your concern. Just pretend that you don't know what happened today. Give me some face, huh? You know, I've always loved face. " Lee Ai spoke with a completely joking tone, her last question appearing almost as coquettish as usual.

Su Rui could not help but grunt, "Then, good night."

"Good night."

Lee Ai hung up the phone.

The night wind blew.

The car in front of the hotel had already been moved to the parking lot by the doorman. The two men had gone in.

I won't come out again tonight.

Looking at the phone in her hand, Su Rui's heart was filled with mixed feelings.

He had to repay the 50,000 yuan he had borrowed from Lee Ai as soon as possible. She couldn't help her friend out of trouble, or at least she couldn't burden Lee Ai anymore.

With such a commotion, supper was no longer interesting. Su Rui returned to her office dejectedly, continuing her unfinished work. However, due to the lack of concentration, the original two hours of work had taken a long time. It was only when Dongfang Jiayue was done that Su Rui finished typing out all the meeting materials and placed them on the conference table.

Looking at her watch, there was still more than an hour before work time. Su Rui rubbed her eyes, put together the three chairs in the staff lounge, and curled up on them. She decided to take a nap.

However, after a night of hunger, Su Rui was probably really tired. As soon as her head touched the chair, she quickly entered into her dreams. She slept soundly until the sharp office bell outside the lounge woke her up.
