Chapter 2127: Money and Love
Lin Shuhuai saw a person from afar, who seemed to be Shi Li, and walked over subconsciously.
He was able to attend today's event thanks to a new friend who took over the other person's name when he came.
So Lin Shuhuai didn't know that this event was actually requested by Shi Li.
Seeing her here now, Lin Shuhuai suddenly thought of Pei Su. Although his expression did not show, he was already thinking about it in his mind.
Although Pei Su promised him that he could invest, he kept dragging his feet and the contract has not been signed yet. He was unhappy but there was nothing he could do.
He didn't know that Pei Su was here today, but when he saw Shi Li, he thought of her still being kept in the dark by Pei Su, and his mood was extremely complicated for a moment.
On the one hand, he wanted to expose Pei Su to Shi Li directly and watch the show, but on the other hand, he was reluctant to give up his cooperation with Pei Su. His mentality was quite twisted.
Shi Li didn't know that Lin Shuhuai already knew Pei Su's identity. He frowned slightly after seeing him, and didn't want him to disturb his good deeds, so he gave a look to the investment consultant next to him.
Needless to say, the investment consultant, who had already become a shrewd man, immediately hurried towards Lin Shuhuai and stopped him outside.
"Go and do your work, and study hard." Shi Li then remembered that Zhou Wei was still standing beside him. He smiled encouragingly at him and then walked into the venue.
Shi Li wore a simple skirt today, with a small suit on the outside. It was not extravagant, but rather looked very ordinary.
But the brooch on her suit was a collection that her father bought for her birthday last year. It was priceless, and anyone who saw it would not think that her status was not prominent.
Shi Li soon saw Pei Su.
After all, people like Pei Su are always shining and stand out from the crowd no matter where they appear.
He had his back to Shi Li and was talking to another person.
It just so happened that the person who was talking to Pei Su was someone Shi Li knew.
Curling her lips silently, Shi Li walked through the crowd towards them.
Naturally, someone who knew Shi Li first saw her and asked in surprise, "Miss Shi? I heard that you were abroad. When will you come back?"
At the same time, Pei Su also turned around.
About three seconds ago, an inexplicable feeling made him vaguely uneasy. But he was a staunch materialist and didn't think much about it until he turned around and saw Shi Li.
Although Pei Su had only lived through his twenties in his life, he had never been as embarrassed as he was at this moment.
Although he was standing here neatly dressed, he looked as if someone had stripped him of all his clothes and he was running naked.
He was not stupid enough to think that he could continue pretending at this point. When he saw Shi Li standing here, he knew that everything had been exposed.
Pei Su's heartbeat had never been so fast before. He looked straight at Shi Li with his eyes, "Li Li...you're back. When did you come back?"
Shi Li blinked, and the corners of her mouth that were trying to rise up were unable to do so.
At this moment of exposure, it was impossible to say that she didn't feel sad at all. She had always treated Pei Su with sincerity, but she didn't expect that everything he said was fake. How could she not be sad?
But looking at Pei Su's current appearance, he felt sad again and subconsciously answered: "I just got off the plane yesterday."
The people around them looked around at them, realized that the atmosphere was not right, and quietly stepped back, not daring to stay any longer.
Shi Li continued, "I haven't been home these few days. You can come over when you are free and just take all your things."
"Okay." Pei Su's voice sounded calm, but it was a completely subconscious answer.
The two looked at each other in silence afterwards.
In fact, Shi Li also wanted to know why Pei Su lied to her, but she couldn't ask because he was so inexplicably proud.
Pei Su had never thought about how to explain to Shi Li after the incident. He thought everything was under his control and never thought that his identity would be exposed.
"Miss Shi, would you like juice or yogurt?"
At this time, a cheerful and sunny voice broke the silence, and Zhou Wei quietly begged his colleague to move here to continue working.
He held a tray with four or five different cups on it and walked towards Shi Li eagerly.
For a moment, Shi Li and Pei Su both looked at him.
Zhou Wei didn't know what was going on yet, and looked at Shi Li expectantly. Then he remembered that there was another person next to him, so he asked Pei Su, "Sir, what would you like to drink?"
Pei Su was silent.
