There was no progress in the afternoon's discussion and information collection. The three of them didn't seem to be in a good mood when they got off work.
Li Weixi rejected Sicily's invitation to have dinner together and took a taxi home. Lin Yi was very unhappy that she had gone home late yesterday because she had dinner with Sicily. If she went home late again today, he would not let her go out for a while.
Li Weixi arrived home on time and realized that Lin Yi was already back. His hair was still wet and he seemed to have taken a shower.
Hearing the sound, the man turned to look at her and said lightly, "You're back?"
"Yes, I'm back."
"Let's have dinner together."
"Okay."
Aunt Lin had gotten used to the way the two of them interacted with each other. Even if she was worried, she couldn't say anything.
After dinner, one of them returned to her room and the other went to the study as usual.
However, unlike the past, Lin Yi quickly returned to his room. Seeing Li Weixi deep in thought, he subconsciously asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Li Weixi was stunned. She hadn't expected Lin Yi to return to his room so soon.
She looked away and said, "It's fine. It's just a design problem. I can solve it myself."
Did she do it herself again?
Lin Yi had heard such words countless times recently. Every time, he would be annoyed and helpless, but in the end, he would have nothing to say.
However, it was different today.
Hearing such a reply, Lin Yi's eyes were filled with obvious anger. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he spoke in a mocking tone. "What? Have you been bewitched by Tom after seeing him today? "
"How did you know?" Li Weixi asked subconsciously in surprise. When she saw the man's particularly gloomy face, she couldn't help shrinking her neck and quickly explained, "it's not because of him. As I said, it's because of the design."
"Really? You seemed very happy to have lunch with him this afternoon. "
Did he even know that?
Li Weixi thought to herself, but she didn't say it out loud this time. Thinking of Sicily's instructions, she said calmly, "There's a reason for what happened this afternoon. Sicily sensed that Tom and Lu Luan wanted to harm you, so she asked Tom out on the pretext of a reunion. However, Sicily and I didn't get anything out of him."
Lin Yi remained silent for a moment, and the anger in his eyes gradually disappeared. "You don't have to get involved in this. I know what to do. Tell Sicily not to meddle in other people's business. It's a problem no matter which side she's on. You have to be careful."
"Okay, I understand." Li Weixi answered obediently, but she didn't take it seriously. She didn't intend to get involved in Tom's matter. As for Sicily, she was now her most trusted ally. She could believe that Sicily was sincerely doing what was best for Lin Yi.
Lin Yi didn't flare up in the end, but he still looked annoyed. After reading for a while in the room, he stood up and left the room after saying, "I'm going to sleep next door."
Li Weixi didn't say a word as she silently watched him leave. However, the slight pain in her heart made her feel uncomfortable.
She didn't want to continue thinking about design, so she turned off the lights and went to sleep, venting all her sadness in her dreams.
The next morning, Li Weixi went to Shengshi Group early.
She was in a bad mood last night, so she didn't continue to think about design. Of course, she had to make up for it.
The atmosphere in the office made it easier for her to calm down.
Li Weixi was so engrossed in her work that she almost forgot the time. She didn't even notice that someone had come into the office.
Tom came in with black tea as usual. He saw Li Weixi working hard at one glance, so he couldn't help but smile. He walked to his seat with the black tea and said warmly to Li Weixi, "Morning, Sissi."
Li Weixi's hand that was recording something paused. He raised his head to look at the person who had come. Only then did he realize that it was already working hours. He quickly replied, "Good morning, Mr. Tom."
"You're so hardworking. Actually, you don't have to be in a hurry. Ah Luan only wants quality, not speed."
"It's better to finish as soon as possible." Li Weixi scratched her head in embarrassment. "I accidentally fell asleep last night, so I thought that I had to make some progress this morning."
"Is this how TK works?" Tom rested his chin on his hand and looked at Li Weixi with a smile. "I don't think a lazy person like me can get used to such a fast pace."
Li Weixi smiled, turned around and asked, "Where is Sicily?"
"I bumped into her just now. She said that she went to see Ah Luan. She should be here soon."
"I see." Li Weixi could guess why Sicily went to see Lu Luan.
Sicily was indeed a woman of action. Once she decided on something, she would do it immediately. It seemed that she couldn't delay any longer.
After making up her mind, Li Weixi whispered to Sicily when she returned to the office. "Sicily, did you go to see Mr. Lu because of us? What did he say? "
Sicily glanced at Tom and said in a low voice, "He is fine. He will help us when necessary."
"That's great. But why did he agree to deal with Chu Mingshu?"
"In fact, Family Chu has been very important to the Lin Family for the past few years. If something happens to Chu Mingshu, Family Chu and the Lin Family will naturally break off contact, which is also good for him."
"I see." Li Weixi hesitated for a moment when he heard the news.
What if this had a bad impact on Lin Yi?
However, Li Weixi quickly rejected this idea. Master Lin's attitude at the Lin Family's banquet was very clear. Even if Family Chu was important, it would not be a big deal for the Lin Family.
Li Weixi put aside this concern and said, "Then I will go to the Li Group this afternoon. I can't delay any longer."
"Okay, I will go with you. You don't know what happened, do you? Can't you get in touch with Uncle Bai? "
Speaking of this, Li Weixi couldn't help frowning. "Not yet. I am a little worried about him. I don't know if he and the company are doing well."
She always had a bad feeling. After talking with Sicily, she called Uncle Bai, but the phone kept telling her that it was out of service. She couldn't find any other way to contact Uncle Bai, so there was always a thorn in her heart.
