"Manning, is it you? I'm really sorry, it's not easy to take a taxi here. I want Mr. Li to take me back to the hotel. I hope you don't mind."

She took the initiative.

Before Li Yueze could speak, she finished speaking.

When Schuman on the other end of the phone heard her voice for the first time, she was taken aback for a moment, and then called out: "Li Yueze."

The earpiece was right next to the ear, and the volume was obviously not loud, but Li Yueze's heart was beating violently.

Slightly flustered, he responded, "I'm here."

Thinking that Schumann was going to make trouble, she silently prepared in her heart, but she said after a moment of silence.

"Hands-free on."

Li Yueze didn't know what he meant, and instinctively clicked on the hands-free button with his fingers.

"Miss Su, are you with our Aze?"

Outside the car, Su He smiled slightly: "Yes, Man Ning, I'm really sorry, I wanted you to come over for dinner, and this restaurant newly opened by Brother Rui tastes pretty good."

In the apartment, Schumann was lying on the sofa, with his legs hooked together, with a leisurely posture.

"It's okay, what does it matter."

"Thank you, Man Ning, you are so kind." Su He continued with a smile on his face, "Then I won't be polite."

"Wait."

"What's wrong?" Su He was puzzled, thinking that Schuman had regretted it.

Until there was a lazy voice from the other end, which seemed to be coquettish.

"Aze~ Didn't I tell you to come find me after dinner? When will you arrive!"

The woman pretended to be angry, biting the end sound heavily.

"Well, I happen to be fine, I'll pick you up, you wait for me there."

A doting smile appeared on Li Yueze's face, and he said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Seeing this situation, Su He, who had been standing by the side, was completely unexpected, and there was also a smile that had never been seen on Li Yueze's face.

He opened the door and got out of the car, and then greeted Ji Shengrui.

"Send Miss Su to Manting Hotel."

Ji Shengrui nodded, "Okay."

Su He stood by the car door, and in an instant, he didn't get on, and he didn't get on.

It made her in a dilemma. When she looked back and wanted to see Li Yueze again, she saw him walking to the side of the road with his mobile phone and calling Shumaning.

I vaguely heard him say: "I sent you a WeChat message but you didn't reply me."

"I thought you might be busy."

"Really? Why do I feel like I've been separated for a long time, and I miss you a little bit."

"Miss Su, please." With a professional smile on his face, Ji Shengrui invited Su He to the back seat.

Su He couldn't hold back her refusal face, she laughed helplessly, and sat in the back seat, laughing at herself about what made her so persistent that she insisted on being with Li Yueze.

Love and hate.

In the end, Schumann stared at the joke instead.

"Our Mr. Li is really charming. He wants to take a car with you." Schumanning said.

Li Yueze frowned, but smiled, "Why does it sound sour?"

"You're so sour, I haven't asked you yet, why did you leave me with your front foot, and go to have dinner with someone else on your back foot."

When it was Xingshi's turn to question the guilt, Li Yueze was well prepared and explained obediently: "Liang Xingyu called me again after you left, so I thought it would be better to come and have an interview with him."

Schumann was dubious, "Really?"

"Really." Li Yueze hummed, "He asked me why I bought that church."

"So, why?" In fact, she was also curious.

Li Yueze smiled without saying a word. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Didn't you say you came to pick me up? I'll tell you when the time comes."

"Stop threatening me with this condition, I, Schumanning, fear nothing more than blackmail!" Schumanning said 250,000 to 80,000, but she actually had the car keys in her hand and was about to go out.

When closing the door, afraid that Li Yueze would hear it, she deliberately raised her voice when the door was about to close.

"Come back by yourself, or ask your secretary to pick you up."

Li Yueze looked up at the sky. It took half an hour to drive from here to the Manting Hotel, and today is Friday, so the peak period lasted for a long time.

Back and forth, at least an hour.

"But you just said you would come to pick me up, did you lie to me?"

There was the sound of the elevator descending, and Schumann simply turned off the microphone temporarily.

Li Yueze didn't wait for her response. He thought she was angry, so he added: "I don't know why she is standing outside my car. In fact, if you don't tell me, I will refuse."

"Ningning?"

The elevator finally reached the negative floor, and Schumanning was finally able to turn on the microphone on the phone.

"what."

Hearing the tone was not good, Li Yueze took a deep breath and felt bad, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows.

Suffering from not being able to coax people.

"Don't be angry, okay, I was really wrong."

On the other end of the phone, Schumann quietly got into the car and started the car. She suppressed a smile: "What's wrong with you?"

Wrong.

Such a deep and dangerous question.

Li Yueze, who has been in love with Schumann for less than 48 hours, is a novice in this regard.

He tried to reply according to his superficial feelings and experience: "I shouldn't have told you that I came here."

"It's not wrong."

Answer each question correctly.

Faintly, a red warning line lit up in his heart, warning him that maybe you only have two chances left.

Li Yueze, who has always been strategizing in the mall, has a rare encounter with difficulties.

Just when he didn't know what to do, the voices of Li Rui and Liang Xingyu came from beside him.

Seeing that he was the only one standing here, Li Rui wondered, "Why are you alone, where is Xiaohe?"

Li Yueze didn't bother to talk to him, so he didn't even look at him.

Li Rui felt embarrassed and touched his nose.

Next to him, Liang Xingyu, who had just asked for the girl who played the Guzheng on WeChat, could smell gossip.

He came forward to talk to Li Yueze.

"Mr. Li, isn't your driver here?"

"he's gone."

Liang Xingyu made a meaningful oh, and pointed back at the flamboyant Aston Martin in the parking lot.

"Then take my car and I'll see you off."

Li Yueze glanced at him, "Are you drinking and driving?"

"There is a substitute driver."

After speaking, he suddenly remembered, yes, his car has two seats, one for the driver and one for him.

Li Yueze has no place left.

With a dazed look on Liang Xingyu's face, his head got stuck in a short circuit.

"Look at my memory, I'm really sorry, I have no other intentions, just want to ask why you want to buy a church?"

Originally still struggling with this issue.

Li Yueze couldn't help laughing, just at this moment he heard the sound of a car horn coming from the other end of the phone.

Something strange in the mind fits with it.

The corners of his lips were raised, and the two people around only saw that he was in a good mood from frowning, and they didn't know the reason.

"Tell me, I'm really curious." Liang Xingyu broke the casserole and asked.

Li Yueze smiled without saying a word.

Schu Manning, who had just driven out of the garage in the parking lot, kept hearing Li Yueze's conversation over there.

She took the opportunity to say: "You guys talk, I'm hanging up."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Yueze's response, he immediately hung up the phone.

Li Yueze looked at the WeChat restored to the chat interface, and curled his lips helplessly.

Li Rui watched him from the sidelines for a long time, and thought that Li Yueze was making a work call when he first came here, but now looking at the meaning, it is probably Schumanning.

Schumann Ning...

For some reason, he thought the name sounded familiar.

"Didn't you think of asking this question when you signed the contract?" Li Yueze put away his phone and asked Liang Xingyu without raising his head.

Liang Xingyu clicked his tongue, "I didn't expect that."

"Why did you think of it now?" Li Yueze glanced at Li Rui from the corner of his eye, "Are you reminded?"

Liang Xingyu scratched his head in embarrassment, and after struggling for a long time, he still shook his hands.

"Hey, forget it, the contract is signed anyway, it doesn't matter what the reason is."

He figured it out, but Li Rui couldn't figure it out.

Just about to interrupt, Jian Qiusheng called him.

He walked to a secluded place and connected.

"My subordinates just took pictures, saying that Li Yueze and Su He are together?"

In recent days, Li Rui has seconded many staff members from Jian Qiusheng's side in order to fight the public opinion war.

Usually, he is almost inseparable from him, just to create conflicts with Li Yueze.

Unexpectedly, I happened to meet Su He and Li Yueze standing beside the car today.

Li Rui didn't know the specific reason, "Is it intimate?"

A laugh came from Jian Qiusheng's end, "You, you, don't you want to stir up a scandal for him again?"

The answer is beyond doubt.

Li Ruisheng was afraid that Li Yueze would have a peaceful day.

After all, he was at peace, but he didn't have a good life.

That day in Yue'an's top office, Li Yueze scratched his face with an ashtray. Thinking of this, he clenched his fists.

Sneer: "This is your profession, you should know what to do."

"Understood." Looking at the busy traffic outside the window, Jian Qiusheng suddenly remembered, "Is he and that designer really together?"

Li Rui hummed, "Probably, I can't figure him out. I had dinner with him today, and he said he was on vacation."

"He would eat with you?!" Jian Qiusheng was very surprised.

"Liang Xingyu is also here. Liang Xingyu called him here. Moreover, he bought the church in Liang Xingyu's house."

"It's strange, why did he buy that church? It won't be demolished or built. It doesn't make sense to invest in it."

It's really weird, but I can't tell where it is.

After he hung up the phone and looked back, he found that Liang Xingyu had left at some point, leaving Li Yueze standing alone by the roadside.

With a cigarette between his fingers, he seemed to be waiting for someone.

As he walked towards him, he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly through the smoke.

Before approaching, a white SUV stopped beside Li Yueze.

He stubbed out the cigarette butt and got into the car very smoothly.

Li Rui couldn't help but want to catch up with the person in the driver's seat.

It's a pity that it failed.

"Why haven't I seen you drive this car?" Li Yueze glanced inside the car, the front was normal, but the back seat looked like a small shop.

There was everything, boxes of jewelry materials, some semi-finished products, and even some clothes.

In short, it is an empty seat where no one sits.

"It's normal work." Schumanning said.

Li Yueze couldn't help but smile on his face, pretending to cough: "Fortunately, you came to pick me up."

"Why, otherwise you have to go back by yourself?"

"Yes." Li Yueze made up a reason casually, "Secretary Ji said that my car broke down after arriving at the hotel, and he couldn't come."

Hearing this, Schumann frowned, why did she think this reason was a bit lame.

"Don't you still have a Bentley?"

Forget about it.

"It's a work car."

Schumanning didn't respond, can't you drive a car if you don't understand work

After a long silence, Li Yueze suddenly asked, "What kind of car do you like?"

Schuman concentrated on driving the car, and said casually, "It's beautiful and expensive."

This requirement is well met.

Li Yueze was thoughtful.

"Does Panamera like it?"

Schumann thought for a while, "It seems to be good."

"okay, I get it."

Schumann looked at him suspiciously, "What do you know?"

Li Yueze kept silent, and said after a while: "I'm going to Mingcheng tomorrow, and I don't think I'll be back until a few days later."

"oh."

Seeing that she didn't care, even a little awkward, Li Yueze saw it.

While waiting for the red light to stop, he reached out and touched the back of her head.

Just as Shumaning wanted him to take it away, she smelled the woody and leathery aroma from his body.

Then, hear him say.

will you miss Me
