The box was very quiet, and Su Peizhen lowered her head so that no one could see her expression clearly.
Su Chenghui was afraid that Su Peizhen would disagree, so he told her about a project he was working on: "Or you can join as a participant. If you are willing, I will go back and send the information to your email. How about it?"
"we'll see."
Su Peizhen didn't agree immediately. Su Chenghui was a little disappointed and not in a hurry.
The waiter began to serve the food, and the two father and daughter ate quietly. Su Chenghui would pick up food for Su Peizhen from time to time and talk about recent events in Lin City.
Of course, those things have nothing to do with the Li family. Su Peizhen was only responsible for listening, but did not speak.
Putting down his chopsticks, Su Chenghui poured another cup of tea for Su Peizhen: "Are you really not considering helping dad?"
"No." Su Peizhen picked up the teacup and felt the warmth in the palm of his hand: "Dad, I have something to do now. Although the two department stores are small, they are just right for me. As for the other things, we will talk about it later."
Su Chenghui was silent for a while and poured himself another cup of tea. He raised his eyes to look at Su Peizhen with a gentle expression: "Pei Zhen. I know you may not believe me when I say this. But I am serious. Your talent should be buried."
Su Peizhen drank all the tea in the cup and put it down. She looked at Su Chenghui: "Dad, there's really no need. I'm living a good life now. I know that I'm no longer the eldest lady of the Su family. I don't want to go back. Neither you nor my mother. In fact, You don’t have to feel guilty. I have lost everything. I really want it, and I will get it back bit by bit through my own efforts. I don’t need your pity.”
"How is it pity?" Su Chenghui was shocked by Su Peizhen's statement: "Pei Zhen. You are my daughter. I know what is best for you. I am like all fathers in the world. I want to give my daughter the best. Okay. Peizhen, don’t think that I don’t care about you now. It’s impossible. You will always be my daughter. You will always be.”
Su Peizhen still lowered his head, but the expression on his face was slightly moved.
She looked up at Su Chenghui, father and daughter for many years, Su Chenghui's words were true. she knows.
"Thanks dad."
"You are my daughter, how can you thank me?" Su Chenghui's attitude was extremely cordial and serious.
Su Chenghui got rid of the impulsive mistakes he made when he was young. In some ways, he was a good father. Su Peizhen knows.
"I have a lot of properties in Rongcheng, and I meant what I just said. It doesn't matter if you don't want to take over. If you have other ideas, you can always tell me. Dad will always support you."
"good."
Su Peizhen's eyes were a little sour. She lowered her head and suppressed the emotion.
After leaving Meiyuan and saying goodbye to Su Chenghui, Su Peizhen did not go home immediately, but stopped by the company to take a look around.
The Lantern Festival has just passed, people are still immersed in the festive atmosphere of the New Year, and the company's activities are grand. Whether online or offline, business is good.
Su Peizhen read the report and sat in the office, feeling a little bored. It's really not difficult for her to manage this.
Thinking of Su Chenghui's words, she knew what he said was true. Compared with Xiang Caiping, Su Chenghui is undoubtedly more aware of her ambitions.
But such ambition was only once. Now she has lost that ambition.
Finding that she was sad in the office, Su Peizhen shook her head. Chicken soup was really not suitable for her.
Back in Rongyuan, Su Peizhen found that Ling Jing was not there.
She frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Zhao who was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
"Where are the others?"
I didn’t say who it was, but I believe Xiao Zhao can understand.
"You mean Mr. Ling? He's gone." When they had an argument, Xiao Zhao was cleaning up in the kitchen and didn't hear it.
"Mr. Ling left not long after you left." After Xiao Zhao said this, he looked at Su Peizhen's face carefully: "He seemed very angry when he left."
angry? What is that man so angry about
Su Peizhen didn't take Ling Jing's anger to heart. She was just angry that she didn't accompany him. No big deal, just spend another day with him tomorrow.
But what Su Peizhen didn't expect was that Ling Jing didn't come back that day, not only didn't come back, but she didn't come back the next day either.
Su Peizhen, who had not seen Ling Jing after returning to Rongcheng for two days in a row, carefully thought about the conflict between the two that day.
It is true that she has broken promises before, but does Ling Jing take herself too seriously
Since he had such a bad temper, she would just leave him alone for a few days.
Su Peizhen didn't take this matter to heart at all, and didn't even call or send a message to Ling Jing.
In a blink of an eye, he returned to the villa where Xiang Caiping lived. She didn't reply for two days, and Xiang Caiping was so happy to see her back.
Xiang Caiping didn't dare to care about this daughter at all. It's not that she doesn't want her daughter to come back to accompany her, but that she doesn't want her daughter to be unhappy.
She was very happy that Su Peizhen was back. If Su Peizhen didn't come back, she would just wait.
Being a mother is also helpless. Su Pei is really a good person and has met all kinds of people. She can completely understand Xiang Caiping's subtle mood, between compensation and guilt.
I can see it, but I can't understand it.
She really didn't understand why some people were always clinging to the past. According to the current average life expectancy, Xiang Caiping could still live for twenty or thirty years. If she keeps looking away like this, Su Peizhen can't do anything.
While living in the villa, Su Peizhen still got up early every day, but the result of getting up early here was that she could go outside to exercise.
Rongcheng is actually very cold in the first month of the year.
When he woke up early in the morning, Su Peizhen put on a set of thick white sportswear and went out for a run. It was still cold outside. She ran not very slowly, but not very fast either.
There really isn’t much to see in the community in early spring. Even though their community is considered a villa area, they still put in some effort to get some green plants.
But compared with the beauty of Lin City, it still seems simple and boring. After running around, the sun slowly rose.
When she was about to go home, she saw the golden retriever again. The golden retriever saw her inexplicable excitement and rushed towards her.
Su Peizhen stopped and stood there motionless. The golden retriever pounced on him without any politeness at all.
Just as he was about to pounce on Su Peizhen, the dog leash around his neck was held by someone. It failed to pounce on Su Peizhen, so it barked dissatisfiedly.
"Dot."
A gentle male voice sounded. Lin Feixing came around from behind the tree shadow. When he saw Su Peizhen, he nodded at her: "Miss Su."
He was also wearing a sports suit, which was a coincidence. Wearing white. But Su Peizhen turned a blind eye.
"Yes." Su Peizhen responded as a greeting and crossed Lin Feixing to leave, but he grabbed her hand at this moment.
"Miss Su?"
"Is something wrong?" Looking at his hand holding her, Su Peizhen frowned subconsciously. Lin Feixing seemed to react and quickly released his hand: "I'm sorry."
He was a little uncomfortable, but seeing Su Peizhen's deserted look, he couldn't help but said, "Miss Su, I have thought about everything you said that day."
That day? When
It took Su Peizhen some time to remember which day he was referring to. She didn't speak, just looked at Lin Feixing intently.
His elite-looking face was actually tainted with a bit of anxiety at this time.
"Miss Su, I think everyone has a past, it's not a big deal."
"Your past is the past, and your present is the present. I don't ask for your past, I only want your present and future."
…
Su Peizhen was stunned for a moment. The golden hair at her feet was still rubbing against her trouser legs, and she was stunned for a moment.
"Mr. Lin—"
"You can call me Feixing." Lin Feixing seemed to have finally mustered up the courage to finish what he wanted to say, feeling a little embarrassed at the end.
"I admit, I was a little confused at first. But I'm not qualified to tell you. I also dated girlfriends abroad. We broke up because of emotional incompatibility, although I later met the right one and got along with two. Later, because of The relationship between returning to China is over."
"I think the reason why we can break it off so easily is because those feelings are not very deep. When you told me that day, I was really surprised. But these days, I always think of you. Peizhen, I can Do you call me Peizhen?"
Lin Feixing's eyes were filled with hidden enthusiasm.
Su Peizhen didn't know what to say. The golden retriever seemed to be infected by its owner's emotions and barked a few words, making it even more cheerful.
"Pei Zhen. I'm not a child. I believe you are neither. Mature men and women will naturally have their own ways of solving and dealing with problems. So I want to say, can you give me a chance?"
Su Peizhen didn't answer in a hurry. The Lin Feixing in front of her is undoubtedly a good marriage partner.
The condition is good, the appearance is good, and the most important thing is that he doesn't mind her past.
She thinks she has a good eye for seeing people. When Lin Feixing was talking to her, his eyes were open, and it could be seen that what he said was true, and he really didn't mind.
Lowering her eyes, she frowned slightly as she looked at the golden retriever playing at her feet.
"Even if I've been to jail?"
"Yes." Lin Feixing nodded: "Going to jail is considered punishment. No matter what you have done, since you have been punished, it is in the past."
Su Peizhen didn't speak. This was a fact. Prison life is God's punishment for her. She had already endured the result, so she didn't feel like she had anything to regret.
But Lin Feixing's ability to say such words really surprised her. For a moment, I didn’t know what answer was more correct to give him.
"You don't have to rush to give the answer." Lin Feixing saw that she didn't speak for a long time, fearing that she would be too entangled, so he hurriedly walked her down the steps: "I can wait for you. Really."
Su Peizhen blinked, raised his head, and saw the eagerness in Lin Feixing's eyes, a little puzzled: "You like me?"
The man standing opposite turned red. Su Peizhen didn't want his answer. She looked at him and took a step forward: "What do you like about me?"
Just this superficial appearance? Is it just her face
She once read a saying that all love at first sight is just based on lust.
Although she is not in a state of being overwhelmed by everything, she really does not have more energy to manage a relationship.
"When I say love at first sight, you may think it's an exaggeration. But that's just the way it is with some things. You don't know the origin of love. If you can explain everything about love, how could there be so many crazy men and resentful women in this world?"
There is some truth to this. Su Peizhen nodded: "Mr. Lin, I can't give you an answer now. Can you think about it later? Okay?"
"Of course." Lin Feixing smiled. Seeing Su Peizhen looking like she was about to leave, he stopped her again and took out his cell phone.
"Pei Zhen. Although you need time to think about it, can you add me as a friend first?"
Su Peizhen looked at the anxiety in his eyes. After all, there was no rejection, just one more friend. She has no burden.
… …
Back in the villa, while eating, Xiang Caiping looked at Su Peizhen, again looking like he was hesitant to speak.
"Mom, are you okay?"
"No." Xiang Caiping quickly shook his head: "Just now, I thought I saw Lin Feixing looking for you upstairs? He came to the house twice last time. Peizhen, you-"
"Has he been here twice?" Su Peizhen didn't hear what Xiang Caiping said, so she wasn't surprised to hear him mention it now: "Yes, he came to me just now and said he didn't mind my matter."
"Really? He came to the door and said it once before, and that's what he meant."
There was a hint of expectation in Xiang Caiping's voice: "Pei Zhen, you said it yourself before. You said that if Lin Feixing doesn't mind your past, you will give him a chance?"
It's not that she is impatient, but that Xiang Caiping really doesn't want to lose such a good son-in-law candidate.
"I remember. I have already given him my contact information. As for the future, we will talk about it later."
"Okay, that's good. That's good."
It would be best to have contact. Xiang Caiping's face was full of expectations, fearing that Su Peizhen would miss a good marriage.
Su Peizhen couldn't understand this idea and didn't want to continue this topic. He went to work after dinner.
Although Su Peizhen didn't want to take over Su Chenghui's business in Rongcheng, when he sent the information to her email, she still read it carefully.
I have to say that at Su Chenghui's age. I have experience, experience, and vision.
This project is really good. Su Peizhen is indeed interested. But if you just take care of Su Chenghui, there will be no shortcomings.
She happens to have a lot of money on hand now, and it would be a good choice to participate as a shareholder.
After calculating the money he had left after deducting the last time he bought a house, Su Peizhen called Su Chenghui. I asked in detail about the operation in between. Finally, she asked for someone to provide the funds.
Even if she is part of the bargaining chip, Su Chenghui understands.
Su Chenghui couldn't help but wish for his daughter to take over the company. At that time, I set some details with Su Peizhen, and also interviewed third-party collaborators, and introduced Su Peizhen's identity in a grand manner.
As a result, Su Peizhen became busy again. Wait until she is done with this week. It was already ten days after I had thoroughly read all the information and completed the previous procedures.
The first month of the new year was almost over, and she hadn't seen Ling Jing for almost half a month.
Su Peizhen suddenly remembered when she got off work that day that she had been feeling tense recently and she needed to relax.
As for how to relax? Is there anything more relaxing than the harmony of yin and yang
I called Ling Jing, but Ling Jing didn't answer.
Su Peizhen frowned. She really didn't know that the pretty boy she raised was so angry.
I didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but it was more or less a breach of trust that day. It was rare that Su Peizhen had the patience to make a second call to Ling Jing.
If the other party still refuses to answer, she can only break off the relationship, but she doesn't have to do it with him.
My sister-in-law is getting married today, and my mother-in-law is exhausted. We had two banquets in a row, from morning to night.
Finally got the update out. Four thousand words, continue tomorrow. I'll code the new article first.
PS: Do you think Mr. Ling will answer the phone
