However, the man continued to say: "I saw you today, it really is extraordinary."

The last four words were very strange to be spoken by his accent.

But Zhong Li just smiled awkwardly.

The man seemed to have found a topic, and he said incessantly, "Only when I met Mr. Zhong did I know why Xinyi rejected so many outstanding men."

Zhong Li withdrew the corners of his lips, this time it was really embarrassing.

But at this time, Ning Xinyi immediately turned her head, and said very "shyly", "Oh, Pete, what are you talking about!"

"You're shy." Pete and Ning Xinyi showed a familiar look, followed quickly, and continued to chat enthusiastically.

Zhong Li followed behind them, unable to describe his mood for a while.

The originally well-behaved Zhong family has reached this point. The so-called cooperative capital injection gives Zhong Li the feeling that the Ning family has joined forces with other people to humiliate and give to the Zhong family.

Although Mr. Zhong didn't think so, this way of overcoming the crisis did not make Zhong Li happy at all.

With such an irritable mood, Zhong Li didn't remember to take out his phone until he got in the car.

It's less than eight o'clock, so she shouldn't blame herself.

Thinking of this, Zhong Li breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to call Shen Qingxin to apologize.

However, when Zhong Li made all the preparations and dialed the number, he said: "The phone you dialed is turned off, please try again later." Zhong Li was completely stunned.

"Who are you calling?" Ning Xinyi showed a particularly affectionate look with Zhong Li in front of her friends, and even leaned her head on Zhong Li's shoulder while saying this.

In fact, she had already seen the name of the number Zhong Li dialed out, so she deliberately made such an intimate move to stop his next behavior.

The smell of her perfume hit her nostrils, even though it was an expensive smell, it still made Zhong Li feel disgusted.

Just when he moved his arm to move away, Ning Xinyi whispered: "My friends are here, to save face, when I ask them to inject capital, it can be said that you are my fiance."

When she said the last sentence, she specially breathed in Zhong Li's ear.

Although it should look attractive, it didn't make Zhong Li feel good about it. He just held back and didn't let himself push Ning Xinyi away.

At the same time, Shen Qingxin, who was sitting alone in Mansion 66, picked up her mobile phone and was about to check the time, but found that the screen of the mobile phone was black and she couldn't turn it on.

She beckoned, called the waiter over, and said politely: "Hi, may I ask if you can charge in the store?"

"Please take a look at the model of your mobile phone, miss?" the clerk also said very politely.

Shen Qingxin handed over the phone.

But the response I got was: "Sorry, there is no corresponding charging cable here. If you brought a charging cable, I can charge it for you."

"Forget it." Shen Qingxin took the phone back.

"Okay, is there anything else I can help you with? Do you need to order now?" The waiter's attitude was still respectful.

"No need. I'll wait for someone." The corners of Shen Qingxin's mouth rose just as she said this.She felt that no matter what Zhong Li thought, she still had this opportunity to sit face to face with Zhong Li and say a few words.

Even if he didn't intend to forgive himself, at least he said what he should say, so he would have no regrets.

Besides, he was still indifferent to himself a few days ago, even as if he had met a stranger. Since he contacted him suddenly at this time, it might not be true that he was not shaken.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingxin felt a burst of warmth.

However, watching the people around her come and go, she also became a little anxious for a while.

Although I knew that I came a little earlier, but it should not be so early that I have to wait for the people at the next table to finish eating and leave.

The water in front of her had been refilled four times, and Shen Qingxin used it to control her nervousness.

Although the waiter didn't urge her, Shen Qingxin couldn't bear this feeling of unease. She even felt that the waiter was staring at her every move she made.

After a while, seeing that the next table had finished eating and left, Shen Qingxin finally raised her hand and called the waiter over.

"Miss, can I order now?" The waiter also seemed very dissatisfied with Shen Qingxin occupying this seat, so there were some other emotions in his eyes.

"Wait." Shen Qingxin smiled sheepishly.

The waiter didn't seem to want to maintain his politeness any more. Hearing this, he turned around and went to serve another table.

However, Shen Qingxin still bite the bullet and said: "Can I ask, what time is it? My phone is out of battery?"

"09:30." These words already felt a little cold.

But what was colder was Shen Qingxin's thoughts.

09: 30.

He made an appointment with himself at eight o'clock.

Shen Qingxin filtered the scene of the phone call in the afternoon in her mind, for fear that she might hear something wrong.

But even if Zhong Li's indifferent and deep voice resounded in his mind over and over again, it only made Shen Qingxin feel a little clearer.

"Eight o'clock in the evening, Mansion 66."

Shen Qing raised her head uneasily and asked the waiter again: "Is there a branch in Mansion 66?"

The waiter didn't know what Shen Qingxin was going to do, so she just replied truthfully: "This is the only family."

"Then, I see..." Shen Qingxin's expression suddenly darkened.

Now she has no reason to convince herself, she can only admit that Zhong Li really let her pigeons go this time.

And, most likely on purpose.

Thinking of yesterday when he and Huang Weihua appeared in front of him at the same time, he seemed not to see him, Shen Qingxin couldn't help curling the corners of her lips, secretly mocking her own stupidity.

Unexpectedly, he was restless all afternoon, so he ran here to sit down after work and wait for Zhong Li to arrive.

The fact that he has been unwilling to believe that he released his own pigeons on purpose is really funny.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingxin clenched her fist slightly, not knowing how to describe her mood.

After a while, the waiter asked for the third time: "Miss, can I order?"

"Wait a little longer." Shen Qingxin bit her lip and clenched her fist.It's not that she doesn't have money to order food, but in this kind of place where there are crowds of people and most of the couples are around, ordering a table of dishes by herself will only look more desolate.

Shen Qingxin lowered her head silently, as if she didn't see the waiter's white eyes.

At this time, Shen Qingxin thought to herself, the waiter probably felt that she was here to occupy a seat on purpose.

But the sadness that these brought to Shen Qingxin was not as heavy as Zhong Li's non-appearance.

Shen Qingxin couldn't count how many times she raised her head and looked out the window, only wanting to see that man in suit and leather shoes with an indifferent expression.

But he never showed up.

Even when Shen Qingxin saw every luxury car appearing, she stared nervously at the door, only wanting to see a familiar figure stepping down.

However, what it brought was just disappointment again and again.

"Miss, it's already ten o'clock, is the person you're waiting for coming?" When the waiter walked past Shen Qingxin, she almost lost her patience and urged her impatiently.

Just these words almost made Shen Qingxin's tears roll down.

Yes, I am still waiting for him.

Not just two and a half hours.

But he may never come back.

"Sorry." Shen Qingxin said with red eyes.

Seeing this, the waiter was a little flustered: "Hey, I'm not urging you. Just keep waiting, it's okay, hey, don't cry, or it seems like I'm bullying you."

Listening to the waiter's flustered words, Shen Qingxin's tears couldn't be stopped.

In fact, other people's attitudes would not cause any irritation to Shen Qingxin.

It's just that Zhong Li's act of releasing pigeons this time has deeply hurt Shen Qingxin. She felt that what she had done a few days ago was extremely stupid, and that she was still pregnant with his child, and it was really not worth it.

"You continue to wait, I'll pour you another pot of tea." The waiter saw that Shen Qingxin's eyes were red, and he was afraid that he would be punished if he blamed himself, so he said hastily.

But Shen Qingxin waved her hand, sniffed again, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Wait no more."

Immediately, she moved towards the door.

"Hey." The waiter called again, seeing the empty teacup in front of Shen Qingxin, she shook her head.

It was already dark outside the door.

Shen Qingxin thought that before the sun set, she came here full of hope, and even kept planning what she would say and what she would do after seeing Zhong Li.

What will he look like then?
Do you want to tell him about your pregnancy?

But these, no matter how long you rehearse in your heart, no matter how many times you rehearse.

Also has no effect.

When the moonlight fell on her shoulders, Shen Qingxin once again fell into deep confusion.

Zhong Li probably hated himself, otherwise he wouldn't use this method to make himself feel hopeful and disappointed.

She even felt that Zhong Li might regard her feelings for him as a kind of game.In the game, he once lost such a point, so he had to make up for it.

But... Shen Qingxin smiled wryly.

That's what heartache feels like.

She walked forward slowly, only feeling that every step was particularly heavy.

His vision gradually became hazy.

It was precisely because of this that Shen Qingxin didn't see a taxi passing by quickly and stopped at the door of Mansion No. 66.

Her expectant figure ran down from the car.

Zhong Li quickly pushed the door open and entered, ignoring the waiter's greeting at all, and quickly walked around the downstairs.

But there was no sign of Shen Qingxin.

"Is there anyone in the box on the second floor?" When the waiter asked Zhong Li if he needed any help, Zhong Li just dropped this sentence leisurely.

The waiter was taken aback for a moment, but he only replied, "Yes... yes..."

Zhong Li ran up quickly without even saying hello.

One minute later, voices came out one after another in different boxes: "Hey, what are you doing?"

"Break in casually, do you have the quality!"

Zhong Li pursed his lips and did not apologize, but his expression became more and more gloomy.
