901 “After Fast Traveling and Sleeping with the Villain” World Sixteen, Two Brothers (63)

After leaving, she deliberately did not think about Chen Ye.

But while waiting for the elevator, Xue Xue thought of another problem.

Did Zhang Xuezhi see herself?

It shouldn’t be wrong. After all, she had been talking to the person next to her, and she came in from the other side. The two happened to be back to back.

Moreover, he and Zhang Xuezhi only met each other once.

“No…it turns out you are really the daughter of the Zhao family?”

“What a daughter, you must have watched too many dramas.” Xue Xue put the phone on the dressing table and turned on the speakerphone.”I’m just the little moron that my mother brought into the house after she married Zhao Jiancheng. I have nothing to do with the word daughter.”

“Hey, no one can say that he is a procrastinator…but Zhao Jiancheng is your nominal father no matter what. You are in the household registration book.”

“So what, he can’t even take care of his two sons, so how can it be my turn.”

“…Same.” After a moment of silence, Yu Enfei couldn’t help but sigh.”You’re pretending really well.”

“This is not called pretending.” Xue Xue sneered.”It’s reality.”

Pour the lotion from the small square bottle, spread it evenly on your hands, and apply it carefully on the entire face.

She had just taken off her makeup and simply took a shower.

Today I went to Beijing for field investigation and didn’t get home until after ten o’clock in the evening. Although the car took up most of the time, Xue Xue still felt dizzy.

At the same time, she also discovered that this part was a little different from what she thought.

“Do you think you can just sit in the office?”

On the way back, because Yu Daizhang, Zhao Hui, and Chen Ye had to meet with representatives of another company, Li Caiti took the high-speed train back with Xue Xue.

Seeing Xue Xue drooping her eyelids and looking like she couldn’t hold on any longer, he took out a bottle of black tea from his backpack and handed it to her.

“Coffee is not good to drink so late, but black tea has a good refreshing effect.”

Xue Xue was flattered.

“Thank you, sister.”

Li Caiti is usually similar to the image of a strong woman that most people have in mind. Xue Xue always feels pressure when facing her, fearing that she will be criticized if she doesn’t do well.

Moreover, Li Caiti seems to prefer working alone than working in a team. She and Yu Daizhang also had some unpleasantness before due to differences in concepts.

In fact, everyone was originally rumoring that after the previous team leader was promoted, Li Caiti should directly take over the position of team leader.

Unexpectedly, Yu Daizhang airborne down in the end.

The people in the department also underwent a major change of personnel.

“You look like a pampered little girl.”

Xue Xue didn’t know how to answer this sentence, so he could only smile politely.

“I was still studying when I was your age.” Li Caiti sighed: “I didn’t expect that I would be working for so many years without knowing it.”

“But sister, you still look very young.”

“Are you young?” Li Caiti touched his cheek.”The collagen is almost gone.”

Xue Xue blinked.

“The name of this department sounds lofty, and it looks glamorous to outsiders. In fact, the pressure is so high that I had a lot of gray hair last year.”

“My daughter even laughed at me because of it, just like grandma.”

With that said, she slid away her phone.

When the voice bar is turned on, it is the sound of a child sucking milk.

“Mom, why aren’t you back yet?”

“Mom will be home in another hour. Do you know that you have to be obedient and take a shower first?”

“Okay!”

Xue Xue listened on the sidelines and couldn’t help it.

“So cute!”

“Right.” Li Caiti looked proud, and then sighed helplessly.”It’s a pity that I don’t have much time to spend with the child. Her father takes care of most of it.”

“This is called division of labor and cooperation.”

“Division of labor and cooperation? Well, maybe.” Li Caiti leaned against the window with one hand.”I like challenging jobs. That’s why I changed jobs in the first place. Otherwise, I could have stayed in school and secured a teaching position.”

“But after working for two years, I found that it still wasn’t suitable for me, so I resigned.”

Xue Xue listened carefully to Li Caiti’s words.

The cold wind was howling outside.

“At that time, it was time for my current husband and I to talk about marriage, but because of this incident, we almost fell through.”

“No one in his family understood why I wasted my good resources, especially since the environment was not very prosperous at that time and it was not easy to find jobs outside.”

Recalling the past, Li Caiti’s eyes changed.

“Actually, I would be afraid to make such a decision.”

“It’s as if not choosing a stable life would be a heinous crime.” Her thumb unconsciously rubbed the screen of her phone.”But I really don’t want to waste my life on a road where I can see the end at a glance.”

“So in the end I told my husband, who was also my boyfriend at the time, that we should just call it a day.”

“Rather than letting one of them compromise reluctantly, it is better to separate early and find the future they want, so as not to become a resentful couple in the future and forget all the good memories.”

“Later…”

Xue Xue was fascinated by what he heard, but after waiting for a long time, he still didn’t hear what Li Caiti said next.

“What happened next?”

Li Caiti didn’t answer, just smiled.

“If you survive a year and are still interested, I will tell you the second half of the story.”

“Ah?” Xue Xue looked disappointed.”Why is this…it’s too much, sister.”

“I usually don’t talk about this with my colleagues.” Li Caiti looked at her.”Probably had a few drinks tonight and felt relaxed, especially in this weather.”

In response, Xue Xue nodded in agreement.

Although the temperature in southern Beijing has dropped significantly, it still pales in comparison to northern Beijing.

“You know why I would rather wrap myself up in a quilt and play games in the dormitory than go out in the winter.”

After hearing Xue Xue’s emotion, Yu Enfei smiled.

“Indeed, growing up in the South is really hard to bear.”

“It’s not really cold yet, so you can’t stand it?” Yu Enfei joked.”No wonder we went to Jingnan. Jingnan is much warmer than here.”

“It’s okay, it’s warm, but there are a lot of bugs.”

After Xue Xue made sure that the mask was evenly applied to his face, he patted it twice with satisfaction.

“Hey, it’s so late. I won’t talk to you anymore. My mother is here to urge me to sleep.”

“Uh-huh.”

“I’ll come find you on Christmas Day, remember to give me some time off.”

“Okay, okay, I understand, you have told me several times.”

After hanging up the phone, Xue Xue stood up, planning to go to the living room to watch TV for a while and then take off the mask and go to sleep.

Unexpectedly, only halfway along the way, I heard the doorbell ringing.
