So Cheng Xi already had the idea of retreating.
She didn't want to make herself exhausted and miserable for a man.
She is different from Mu Ruoqi. Mu Ruoqi can rely on Pei Yanzhou unscrupulously because they grew up together and their relationship is like relatives, like brothers and sisters, and like lovers.
But she couldn't. She and Pei Yanzhou relied on their relationship to survive.
Once her unbridled squandering is done, there will be nothing left.
After a meal.
Cheng Xi watched a movie with Pei Feiyue and then went home.
After that, Pei Yanzhou sent messages and made phone calls to Cheng Xi. Cheng Xi would pick her up and reply, but it was no longer like before. Sometimes she would take a long time to reply, and sometimes she would just reply with two words of "um oh".
...
In the clubhouse.
Pei Yanzhou sat on the sofa and drank wine without saying a word.
"Yes, Brother Yan must have had a conflict with Cheng Xi again." Han Yaoting shrugged, "It was the same thing with the two of us last time."
Lu Chongli looked up after sending the WeChat message, "Tell me, what happened this time? Let me, a wise man, analyze it for you."
Pei Yanzhou looked at her expressionlessly, "Last time...when I went to rescue Mu Ruoqi, I lied, and she found out about it. She got angry once and never said anything about it again. It happened, but when I asked her out, she wouldn’t come out. I went to look for her, but she was often not in the studio, and she would send messages for a long time before replying to me.”
"Why lie?" Lu Chongli asked.
Han Yaoting said, "I must be afraid that Cheng Xi won't let Brother Yan go. If he goes to find another girl in the middle of the night, most women will definitely be unhappy."
Pei Yanzhou nodded, "If Ruoqi hadn't said that something didn't feel right that day, I wouldn't have gone there. After all, Ruoqi knew Dou Shaochen, and I was the one who took her to charity events. If anything happened to her, I would never go there. Forgive yourself.”
Lu Chongli patted him on the shoulder, "If you ask me, you shouldn't take Mu Ruoqi to participate in charity activities at all. There are some things I don't want to say too bluntly. Even if you desperately support the Mu family, the Mu family and ours The circle is completely different, Yan Zhou, you are usually quite shrewd, but why do you get confused every time you encounter something about the Mu family."
Pei Yanzhou poured a glass of red wine and said in a low voice, "Now we are talking about Cheng Xi and me."
"What happened between you and Cheng Xi was because of the Mu family. Every time you quarreled it wasn't because of Mu Ruoqi."
Lu Chongli asked sharply, "The most terrifying thing about a woman is that she doesn't make trouble with you. She doesn't break up with you, but silently alienates you, waiting for you to break up because you can't stand it anymore."
Han Yaoting's eyes widened, "Zhoucao, aren't we men often doing this kind of thing?"
"Who says women can't do this kind of thing."
Lu Chongli was funny, "Of course, there may be another reason. She has the idea of breaking up, but she hasn't made up her mind yet."
The more Pei Yanzhou listened, the more restless he became. He raised his head, an undercurrent surging in his eyes, "Impossible, you want to break up with me just because I told a lie?"
