Chapter 340 Is it difficult for a man to control himself?
In Liang Fei's opinion, how can we describe the relationship between Li Xingruo and the couple Pei Rou and Ding Dehong To make an inappropriate analogy, it is a bit like a boy and a girl in the passionate love period. Their feelings are constantly heating up and they are a bit inseparable.
From the perspective of an observer, Liang Fei felt that if she had a daughter like Li Xingruo in the future, she would definitely feel comforted.
Li Jiang is pretty, tall and well-proportioned, an excellent student, has a skill, and has her own hobbies.
Is she a lovely girl?
Well, why not?
So maybe in Pei Rou's mind, Liang Fei beside Li Xingruo might be an upgraded version of the ghost fire boy.
There are some differences. The will-o'-the-wisp boy would shout to Ding Dehong: "Old Deng, is it safe for my will-o'-the-wisp to be parked downstairs?"
If it were Liang Fei, it would simply be: "Old Deng, is it safe to park my Lamborghini downstairs?"
If you are more arrogant, say to the security guard when you enter the community, "Please take care of my car, otherwise I will break your legs."
While thinking about all sorts of things, Jin Jiaer knocked on the door and walked in, reporting: "Boss Liang, a team from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology came down and said they had communicated with you in advance. What do you think?"
Liang Fei waved her hand and said, "Let the middle-level leaders take charge of the reception. I won't show up."
After hearing this, Jin Jiaer sighed inwardly that President Liang has been becoming more and more arrogant lately. The leaders from the hall never come out in person to meet him. He must be getting too cocky.
"Mr. Liang, why don't you go take a look?" Jin Jiaer advised, "We are a company after all."
“What happened to the business?”
Liang Fei picked up her coat and said, "I'm very busy. I have to go to Mr. Pei's house for dinner tonight. Now I have to go to the supermarket to buy gifts. Time is tight. I have to skip work."
Li Xingruo, who was standing by, tilted her head and said in surprise, "Teacher Pei didn't invite you."
Liang Fei: "She invited you, which is equivalent to inviting me."
Li Xingruo hurriedly drew a line between herself and Liang Fei: "No, no, no, this is not the same thing. If you want to go, call Teacher Pei yourself and get her consent."
Bullshit, if you tell me in advance that you are coming to the house for a free meal, do you still call me coming to the house for a free meal?
Liang Fei was not afraid that Pei Rou would drive her out. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling hand. Moreover, she came here with something in her hand, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
At night, at the door of Pei Rou's house
Liang Fei held the gifts in both hands, looked at the closed door, bit the rope of the gift box with her teeth, and used her right hand to send a WeChat message to Li Xingruo in the room: "Ask Teacher Pei to open the door."
Ding~
Li Jiang: "Teacher Pei said that no one is allowed to open the door if they bring something. This is an iron rule she and uncle set, and no one can violate it."
Liang Fei: "Nonsense, all I have is less than a thousand yuan. Which cadre can't stand such a test? Others won't say anything if they know. Be good and open the door."
Li Jiang: "No."
Liang Fei: "You are such a good fellow, Li Xingruo. You don't even listen to me now that you are with a high-ranking official, right? Have you forgotten how seductive I am in the night?"
Li Xingruo didn't come back.
Liang Fei was so angry, but she couldn't keep ringing the doorbell or knocking on the door. If the noise was too loud, it would really damage the reputation of Pei Rou and Ding Dehong.
In a residential area where there is a high-ranking leader, even if it is not publicized, the neighbors actually know about it. There may be more than just Pei Rou and Ding Dehong living there.
When Liang Fei was working in a government office in his previous life, he had indeed come into contact with the legendary unyielding cadres. He didn't expect to meet them again now.
Inside the house
Li Xingruo squatted beside the kitchen trash can to pick vegetables. Pei Rou put an old hen into the casserole and asked with a smile: "Liang Fei is still at the door?"
Li Xingruo nodded.
Pei Rou moved a small chair to Li Xingruo: "Don't you feel bad?"
"There's nothing to feel bad about. He deserves it." Li Xingruo stuck out her tongue. "I told him in advance, but he refused to listen. Disobedient children need to be educated, right, Teacher Pei?"
Pei Rou smiled happily: "Yes, Xing Ruo is the smartest."
"But, a guest is a guest. We can't let that kid squat at the door all the time." Pei Rou finally gave in. "Tell him to put the gift back in the car and come up empty-handed. Our family doesn't need his supplements. Your uncle and I are in good health and don't need any."
When Li Xingruo heard this, she immediately put down the celery and said, "I'll send him a WeChat message."
Pei Rou suggested: "Open the door and talk to him face to face."
"good!"
Li Xingruo stood up, pinched her sore calf, limped to the entrance and opened the door, then saw Liang Fei holding a gift box in her left hand and holding the gift box in her mouth, and constantly sending her harassing WeChat messages.
"What are you doing?" Li Xingruo asked curiously, "Aren't you tired?"
Liang Fei shook her phone: "I need to send a WeChat message, what else can I do?"
Li Xingruo frowned, a little confused: "You can put the gifts on the ground."
Liang Fei: “…”
Damn, if you ask me, I don’t know.
Putting the gift on the ground, Liang Fei poked his head into the room and asked, "Did Teacher Pei agree to let me in?"
"Yes." Li Xingruo nodded, "Only if you take the gift back, otherwise you won't be allowed in."
"Okay, it's not easy for me to get a free meal."
Liang Fei picked up the gift and took the elevator downstairs. After arriving at the door empty-handed, Li Xingruo confirmed through the peephole before opening the door and getting a pair of slippers for Liang Fei.
"Teacher Pei, Teacher Pei, do you need help?"
Liang Fei washed his hands, came to Pei Rou and asked, "I think I'm a good cook, maybe I can help the teacher a little."
Pei Rou glanced at Liang Fei: "No, go watch TV."
"Okay."
Liang Fei agreed immediately, left the kitchen and went to the living room. After sitting down, he asked Li Xingruo, "Where's the remote control?"
Li Xingruo was not surprised to see Liang Fei being so familiar with him. After handing the remote control on the coffee table to Liang Fei, he reminded her, "You still have to be careful and don't be too arrogant."
"I'm not arrogant."
Liang Fei said to Li Xingruo, "Pour me a glass of water. A guest has come, but you don't even pour me a glass of water. Is that okay?"
Hey, this kid.
Li Xingruo went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of mineral water for Liang Fei. At this time, Ding Dehong also came back from get off work, holding an oil paper bag, and shouted to Li Xingruo with a smile: "Xiao Li, I bought you a roast chicken from the restaurant you like the most. I waited in line for a long time."
"Hey, Xiao Liang is here too."
Ding Dehong was obviously in a good mood today: "If you have nothing to do, play two games of chess with me?"
Liang Fei agreed immediately and followed Ding Dehong into the study.
Li Xingruo washed a plate of grapes and brought it into the study, then returned to Pei Rou to help.
While cutting vegetables, Pei Rou asked, "How good is Liang Fei at chess?"
Li Xingruo recalled and shook his head, saying, "I've never seen him play chess, but he should be okay. He learns things very quickly."
After a pause, Li Xingruo looked at Pei Rou and asked, "Is uncle good at playing chess?"
Pei Rou smiled and said, "You can go and see it yourself later."
Li Xingruo became interested and waited for more than half an hour before quietly pushing open the door of the study and watching the battle inside through the gap.
Liang Fei and Ding Dehong sat in front of the chessboard, brows furrowed, rubbing the black and white pieces in their hands. Every move they made was cautious and they had to think over and over again. It was obvious that the battle situation was very tense.
It's quite boring. Li Jiang doesn't know how to play Go and doesn't understand it at all.
After closing the door, Pei Rou held the soup and called out, "Xiao Li, call your uncle and Liang Fei to come out for dinner."
At the dinner table
Ding Dehong opened a bottle of Jiannanchun, and poured a glass for Liang Fei with a smile, saying cheerfully: "Xiao Liang, we are happy today, let's drink two glasses, not too much, two liang each."
As he said this, he took the initiative to clink glasses with Liang Fei.
Li Xingruo was not surprised that Liang Fei could have a good relationship with Ding Dehong. From the current perspective, as long as Liang Fei was willing, there was no bad relationship between them.
"How did you do it?" Li Xingruo was an honest person and liked to ask questions face to face.
Liang Fei said proudly: "Uncle Ding and I were in a close fight. If you hadn't called out, we would have fought until dawn."
Pei Rou looked up in surprise: "You?"
Liang Fei nodded: "Yes."
Pei Rou shook her head and looked at Ding Dehong: "I didn't expect there are people in the world who are as bad at chess as you. Xiao Liang also likes to regret his moves?"
Liang Fei and Ding Dehong get along well and are very considerate. Whenever both of them want to regret a move, they start discussing it. I regret it once, and you can regret it once, and everyone is happy.
The meal was very warm. Ding Dehong, Pei Rou, and Liang Fei all avoided talking about work and focused mostly on Li Xingruo, so there were naturally many topics to talk about.
It was almost nine o'clock when Liang Fei and Li Xingruo got up to say goodbye and leave. Before leaving, Li Xingruo washed the dishes and wiped the table clean before following Liang Fei contentedly.
After sending the two young men to the elevator and waiting for the door to close, Ding Dehong rubbed his face and said to Pei Rou, "I feel that Liang Fei is indeed different. He seems to be trying to please us not because of our positions, but because he wants us to say good things about him in front of Xiao Li."
Pei Rou crossed her arms and smiled, "He has a lot of tricks, but how should I put it, he's not annoying."
Next day
Liang Fei was too lazy to stay in the office, so he took his teacup and cigarettes and went to the rooftop, where he put a recliner and would come up to think about life or play some fishing whenever he wanted.
Bosses like Liang Fei are rare. They will not slack off. What they enjoy in the company is the pleasure brought by control and command, and the pleasure brought by power. No matter men or women, they cannot extricate themselves from it. Once they are addicted, they will never be willing to lose it.
That’s why so many veteran cadres find it difficult to adapt after retiring. It’s because they no longer have the power and there’s no one to follow and serve them.
But he didn't expect that when he got to the rooftop, he found that his throne had been taken away by someone.
"What the hell?"
Liang Fei was so furious. She was really angry. Besides herself, there was someone else who dared to slack off so blatantly during working hours. She was going to die.
He walked forward angrily and saw that it was Yang Zhicheng, who was usually the most diligent.
"What's wrong with you? You look like you have kidney deficiency." Liang Fei looked at Yang Zhicheng strangely.
Old Yang glanced at Liang Fei and stood up with difficulty: "Come, sit down."
"Please sit down."
Liang Fei was not a person who cared much about etiquette. He found an abandoned cardboard box, opened it, spread it on the ground, and sat on it.
Old Yang didn't refuse, and lay back down again, holding a cigarette in his mouth and looking at the blue sky, he asked leisurely: "Xiao Feifei, what do you think this person wants to live for?"
Liang Fei: “???”
He remained calm and kept a distance from Lao Yang.
"What happened to you?" Liang Fei asked.
Old Yang looked back and saw that the rooftop was empty except for him and Liang Fei. He simply told her about his experience: "We have recently outsourced some downstream projects. I was in charge of the connection and I met a girl from the outsourcing company."
"Sleep!"
"He must be asleep!"
Liang Fei insisted, and then he was heartbroken: "What's wrong with you, Lao Yang, Lao Yang, I have always placed high hopes on you, how could you be like this, is that woman a fairy, did she set a trap for you, you don't even have the slightest self-control, oh, you should learn from me, learn from me , there is such a role model here, why don't you learn from me?"
Old Yang blinked and said, "Won't it be worse if you learn it?"
Liang Fei stood up and was about to leave.
"Hey, don't go, listen to me." Yang Zhicheng held Liang Fei, "I didn't sleep, I didn't sleep, do you think it's the same as you?"
"Not asleep?"
Liang Fei turned around and angrily broke away from Lao Yang: "Now you don't tell the truth to your brothers?"
Old Yang said righteously, "Really not."
"I don't believe it."
"I can't help it if you don't believe me."
"Hey, you're taking me for a silly bitch."
Liang Fei sat down again and looked at Yang Zhicheng: "Since you didn't sleep, why are you sighing about life here? You have maintained your bottom line and have not let down your fellow countrymen. You should be proud of it."
Yang Zhicheng scratched his hair. "I held back this time, but what about next time, Xiao Feifei? I found that human nature really cannot stand the test. If I were just an ordinary office worker, without you, I would not be in my current position, nor would I encounter such problems..."
Old Yang was a little incoherent, and took a puff of cigarette: "But in the future, you will definitely make the company bigger and bigger. As the saying goes, if one person succeeds, everyone will benefit. There will be more and more temptations around. I resisted this time, but next time I will come up with something more advanced and better looking. Ask yourself, can I really stick to my principles?"
It seems that the girl from the outsourced unit is indeed quite good, and even someone like Lao Yang, who is not particularly interested in women, feels sad about her.
Most men, when faced with this situation, would not think so much. They would just do it and then talk about it. They would even be complacent afterwards. As expected, now that I have made it in life, beautiful women are starting to throw themselves at me.
This shows that Lao Yang’s quality is indeed very good.
Liang Fei stopped joking with him and consoled him, "Prettier than your fellow countryman?"
Yang Zhicheng doesn't lie that often, and he's facing Liang Fei: "She's just better looking, but she can't catch up to Xu Ke in other aspects."
Yang Zhicheng sighed and shook his head, saying, "I really don't want to be that so-called successful person, with a red flag flying high at home and colorful flags flying outside. That's not good."
"How infuriating." Liang Fei said with a smile, "Do you think it's easy to do this? How many men want to do this, but because of their own lack of strength, they drool over the pretty girls outside. But you are so good that you push away the ones who come to your door."
Yang Zhicheng asked: "Did I do something wrong?"
"No."
Liang Fei nodded: "You did the right thing. At least I want to give you a thumbs up, Lao Yang, you are indeed a good person."
Yang Zhicheng felt a little better. He clenched his fist and smiled, "Right? I just want to live a good life with Xu Ke. I just want to live my own life. Successful people and high-income people are all for living. Hey, think about it this way. The temptations outside have nothing to do with me."
After saying that, Lao Yang looked at Liang Fei and said, "I don't want your kind of life even if you give it to me for free."
Liang Fei: “…”
I said he lost his year-end bonus.
