When she got off work, Li Bingyu hesitated and didn't dare to go with everyone. She made an excuse and waited until everyone was almost gone before Li Bingyu walked out lazily.
At the door of the county party committee compound, Gao Peiran was holding a bouquet of roses and looking inside.
Li Bingyu saw Gao Peiran from a distance and knew that he couldn't hide today, so he had no choice but to walk up and greeted with a smile: "Mr. Gao, what a coincidence? Are you here to care about your investment project again?"
Gao Peiran smiled and said, "Ms. Li, you clearly know it's not the case, why do you ask even though you know it?"
Li Bingyu smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
Gao Peiran came to the rescue and handed the flowers to Li Bingyu and said: "I would like to treat Miss Li to a meal. I wonder if Miss Li will appreciate it?"
Li Bingyu took the rose awkwardly and said, "Can I still refuse?"
Gao Peiran smiled happily, walked over, opened the car door, and said to Li Bingyu: "Miss Li, please."
Li Bingyu got into the car without any choice.
In the private room of Fuli Hotel, Gao Peiran had already ordered several exquisite side dishes. After Li Bingyu sat down, Gao Peiran called the waitress to serve the dishes.
Li Bingyu asked curiously: "Mr. Gao, did you prepare this in advance?"
Gao Peiran nodded and said: "Yes, I will make arrangements when I arrive at Minjiang River. What, is Miss Li not satisfied?"
Li Bingyu shook her head and said: "No, I'm just curious, how can you be so sure that I will come? What if I don't come? Then aren't you wasting it?"
Gao Peiran said: "Miss Li, we had such a pleasant chat last time. I don't think you will refuse my invitation because we are already friends, right?"
Li Bingyu nodded and said: "Mr. Gao's gentlemanly demeanor and style are really hard to refuse, and he is also so wise. I had already decided that I would definitely come."
Gao Peiran said happily: "Then I think this is Miss Li praising me, right? I'm a little carried away." Li Bingyu smiled and said nothing.
Gao Peiran opened a bottle of red wine, poured it for Li Bingyu and said, "Ms. Li, drink some red wine. Drinking less wine is also good for girls' skin."
Li Bingyu did not refuse and said politely: "It's up to the guest to do as he pleases. Then I'll have a drink with Mr. Gao."
After a while, Gao Peiran said: "Miss Li, since we are already friends, can we talk to the point directly if we have anything to say?"
Of course, Li Bingyu also wanted to get straight to the point. Deep down in her heart, she did not want to have too much entanglement with Gao Peiran. Although her impression of Gao Peiran gradually improved, she knew that they were not the same person after all.
Li Bingyu said calmly: "Of course, this is what I hope too."
Gao Peiran said directly: "Miss Li, I like you!"
Seeing that Li Bingyu's eyes were wide open in surprise, Gao Peiran hurriedly said: "Listen to me first. From the first time I saw you during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I have liked you. Maybe you will laugh at me like this
As you age, you will still be as impulsive as young people, but I just want to tell you my truest thoughts. When I see you, it’s like seeing my wife who was more than thirty years ago, even though you don’t look very good.
Like, but the temperament and personality are so similar, I am almost fascinated by you, just like I was fascinated by my wife back then."
The more Li Bingyu listened, the more confused she became: "Mr. Gao, since you love your wife so much, aren't you hurting your wife's heart by doing this?"
Gao Peiran said sadly: "Oh, I didn't tell you clearly that it has been 10 years since my wife left me."
