Early the next morning, Lin Yi stopped Li Weixi, who was about to leave. "Pack your things when you get off work. I will pick you up."
"I don't think it's necessary." Li Weixi felt a little embarrassed. "If the people in the company see us …"
"It's already off work, no one will see us," Lin Yi said calmly and turned to go upstairs without waiting for Li Weixi's reply.
He was still so domineering.
Li Weixi muttered in her heart. She did not feel disgusted, so she did not insist. She heard that Xiao Qi had sent her to the Shengshi Group. Now that Lin Yi was involved, it did not seem to be a big deal. She would be ostracized anyway.
The current Li Weixi's heart was already very strong when it came to these matters. He wouldn't have any big psychological fluctuations anymore.
When she arrived at the company, the office was very quiet because it was too early.
When Li Weixi walked to her seat, she was so shocked that she could not help but exclaim, "Mr. Tom?"
"Yes?" Tom answered in a daze. He had been sleeping on the table, but when he heard the voice, he rubbed his eyes and propped himself up.
Seeing that it was Li Weixi, his lips slowly curled into a smile. "Good morning, Xixi. It was right to come early."
Li Weixi was startled. "Mr. Tom, are you waiting for me?"
"Yes." Tom narrowed his eyes. "You are leaving tonight, right? I feel that I haven't spent enough time with you. You don't come out when I ask you out, so I can only come early to try my luck."
At this moment, Li Weixi did not know what to say.
She always felt guilty towards Tom.
She felt warm and said impulsively, "I am sorry, Mr. Tom. I didn't mean to not reply to you after I sent you the message that I was leaving, although I don't know if you saw it or replied."
"It doesn't matter. I can probably imagine it." Tom smiled, his eyes filled with gentleness. "You don't have to mind. The fact that you told me before you left shows that you still care about me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have told me."
The knot in Li Weixi's heart was opened by this sentence. She also smiled. "Because Mr. Tom is a very important friend to me. Of course I care."
Just friends?
Tom thought helplessly, but he didn't say anything to embarrass the girl. At least, Li Weixi looked so happy now. He didn't want to ruin her happiness.
After chatting with Tom for a while, Li Weixi began to work. Tom also went out to make himself a cup of black tea.
Another day of work passed in the midst of their struggles. After a day of work, they still did not have any leads. As usual, they only put forward some ideas and then rejected them again.
After work, everyone in the office came to say goodbye to Li Weixi as long as she was about to leave.
Sicily helped her pack up and asked casually, "Is Mr. Xiao still coming to pick you up?"
Li Weixi paused while packing up. "Lin Yi said he would come to pick me up."
"I see." Sicily did not say anything more.
The atmosphere was a little depressing.
Li Weixi knew that Sicily still liked Lin Yi. She was probably fighting for him in her own way. This was a problem that the two of them deliberately avoided. Although Sicily occasionally joked with Li Weixi, they never overdid it.
After packing up, Li Weixi picked up the box and said to Sicily, "I can carry it myself. It's okay."
"Be careful. I won't go downstairs."
"Okay."
Li Weixi did not ask any more questions and carried the box downstairs.
Lin Yi was already waiting in the car downstairs. When he saw the girl carrying the box alone, he could not help frowning. He unbuckled his seat belt and took the box from her hands.
Li Weixi was stunned when her hands suddenly became empty. She looked up at the expressionless man and looked away. "Thank you."
"Let's go."
"Okay."
She followed Lin Yi into the car and Li Weixi heard him ask, "What's the progress in the past three days? How have you been? "
"There hasn't been any substantial progress. I'm still struggling," Li Weixi answered honestly. "Everyone in the company has been very nice to me."
At first, the reason why Shengshi Group wanted Li Weixi to work with them at Shengshi Group. However, after arriving, Li Weixi understood.
In fact, Lu Luan had asked her to work for a few days because of Tom and Sicily.
Did Lin Yi get angry because he knew about this? Was that why he was unhappy with Li Weixi coming to Shengshi Group?
Li Weixi thought to herself, but did not dare ask. She went back to the company with Lin Yi in silence.
It was after work and there was almost no one else on the project team's floor. Their office was also quiet. It seemed that they had all gone back.
Li Weixi followed Lin Yi to her seat. "Just put the things down. I can pack by myself."
Lin Yi ignored her. After putting the box down, he helped her pack.
Li Weixi knew that it was useless to say anything to him, so she helped him pack.
The familiar office did not make her feel at home. Instead, she missed the office at Shengshi Group. At the very least, everyone there treated her well and the atmosphere was very good. It was the office life she yearned for.
Li Weixi tidied up his desk and followed Lin Yi out of the building. They went all the way home.
As soon as she opened the door of the villa, she heard an enthusiastic voice. "You are finally back. I would have starved to death if you hadn't come back."
"Sissi, I haven't tasted your cooking for a long time. Are you cooking today?"
Li Weixi stared blankly at the Thirteenth Master who appeared in front of her and forgot to greet him.
She had not seen the Thirteenth Master for a long time.
"Why are you in a daze? Are you tired? Come and rest for a while. Aunt Lin, give Sissi some snacks. "
The Thirteenth Master did not treat this as someone else's home. Instead, he acted as if this was his own home.
He ignored Lin Yi's cold stare and dragged Li Weixi to the sofa to sit down. "Do you need me to massage your shoulders?"
Li Weixi knew what he was thinking when she saw his expectant eyes. She smiled and said, "No, I will go upstairs and get changed before I cook."
As she spoke, she stood up.
"That would be great." Lord Thirteen squinted his eyes and smiled. He beckoned Lin Yi over, "Come over and take a seat. It's so ugly standing there like a wooden stake."
Lin Yi glared at him, took off his coat and gave it to Aunt Lin, who came over with snacks. Then he walked over and sat down. "What are you doing here?"
