Chapter 7, there is some harmony
Qian Fei shot him a fierce glare and said, "No wonder they say that the young masters of Beijing have sharp tongues! Can't you say something more positive?"
But I feel that I quite like him
Qian Fei, noticing his proactive and friendly attitude in initiating conversation, couldn't help but show off a bit more, saying, "I can do a lot! My specialty is welding radios. Just give me a bunch of parts, and I won't even need a circuit diagram; I can return to you a multi-channel radio!"
Xiaoyuan said: "With someone like you, how can you talk to me about chastity? Enough of this, you don't need to think too much about it. I have been with countless men in bed, and someone as pretentious as your current boyfriend doesn't need to be coddled. The more you pamper him, the more arrogant he becomes. If you ignore him for a few days, he will behave himself, and after a few days, he will definitely come to find you!"
Li Yifei furrowed his brows and asked, "You?"
Gui Lili responded to him with a soft and delicate "mm"
Upon returning home, Qian Fei saw Gui Lili sitting on the sofa in the living room, adjusting the brightness of her mobile phone and laptop screen to the maximum. The two eerie lights cast a ghastly glow on her face, causing Qian Fei to feel a shiver of horror.
When she went upstairs, she had already seen that the entire building was without electricity except for her home. Therefore, it can be said that
Unknowingly, it had become 11:30, and she began to feel drowsy, yawning while wiping her nose and tears.
She was originally in the back-end support department, and only after breaking up with Wang Ruohai did she find a way to transfer to the project department. She felt reluctant to refuse her former boss's request, so she had no choice but to accept it
Gui Lili tilted her head, presenting her exquisite and beautiful face to her, "But Qian Fei, we agreed on the contract that you would cover the electricity, water, and broadband fees!"
Li Yifei let out a sound of surprise and asked, "What else can you do?"
"You are so skilled with electricity, how did you end up in investment banking?" he asked her
She got up and opened the door to the kitchen, attempting to find something refreshing in the refrigerator, such as coffee or tea
She feels that her brain is really hurting like hell
Before the end of the afternoon work shift, Manager Jin from the backend support department assigned her a task, asking her to assist with the "Quarterly Business Information Statistics for Investment Banking." Manager Jin told her: "This was originally Xiao Ma's task, but she went home for maternity leave last week, and now there is no one to handle it! You have done this before and know how to compile the statistics, so Qian Fei, I have to trouble you with this!"
"How can you still do this? Are you still a woman?" He couldn't help but exclaim.
They all started arguing again, not allowing each other to speak. Qian Fei, enduring their spittle, went downstairs to buy a fuse.
Qian Fei looked incredulous, "Is this true or not?"
Qian Fei thought for a moment and said, "How about I give it a try first?"
Xiaoyuan blinked and asked her, "What’s wrong? Did you not let him do something to you, and now he is angry?"
Xiaoyuan glanced at her and said, "As if you have no physiological needs!" She changed the subject, "So, does your new boyfriend want to do something with you, but you didn't let him?"
Qian Fei, you have finally returned! I was just thinking about what I would do if both my computer and phone ran out of battery!
Qian Fei put down her chopsticks, her head drooping, "Yes, since yesterday, he has been ignoring me!"
Qian Fei felt an overwhelming complexity in her heart as she listened
Qian Fei felt a bit troubled, and she was unsure if she was mimicking Gui Lili's tone, "But you have used high-power appliances!"
Gui Lili blinked her big eyes and said: "But you didn't mention in the contract that it can't be used! It's so cold, using an electric heater is quite normal. We can't let people get sick just to save electricity! Don't you think?"
The two individuals tidied up their tools and returned to the room, turned on the door light to test it, and the lost current successfully returned
At this moment, Li Yifei changed his clothes and came out of the room
Xiaoyuan bit the end of her chopsticks, laughing extremely lewdly, "He won't be angry; he will immediately kneel on the ground, grateful that I have spared him for a day!"
Li Yifei said to her: "Tomorrow I will take half a day off to have the property management come and replace the fuse"
She casually asked, "Just back?"
Qian Fei shot a glare at Xiao Yuan, "Sister, could you have a bit of a sense of chastity? I still don't know if I can end up marrying him. Just casually letting him sleep with me, what if we end up breaking up? I can't go back and ask him for the money for that night, that would be a huge loss, alright!"
General Jin is in a hurry and said it would be best to give it to him by tomorrow morning. Qian Fei had no choice but to stay up late and work overtime to finish it after returning home
She turned off the lights and went to bed
Qian Fei couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Brother, that was just a metaphor, okay!"
Gui Lili jumped up from the sofa and stood on the ground, shouting at Li Yifei: "Li Yifei, are you out of your mind! It's pitch dark and I'm home alone, scared out of my wits. You come back in the middle of the night, and the first thing you do is put eye drops in my eyes. What do you mean by that!"
In the following minutes, he held the flashlight and watched as Qian Fei swiftly replaced the fuse, leaving him astonished and speechless
She heard Li Yifei ask Gui Lili: "What happened, is there a power outage?"
Qian Fei sighed. It seems that it is impossible to expect her to say it herself.
She saw Li Yifei sitting on the sofa in the living room, with the door to their room closed
Upon seeing her return, Gui Lili rushed forward with tears of joy in her eyes, much like a poor person from the old society encountering the Party
Li Yifei had a look that seemed to say "stop messing around" and asked her, "Do you need to write a will first? What if you get electrocuted later?"
Li Yifei shrugged and followed Qian Fei into the hallway with a flashlight
At first, she thought that Gui Lili was easygoing and approachable, while Li Yifei, with his nose in the air, would be difficult to get along with. However, after spending some time together, the reality turned out to be quite the opposite.
The door outside has sounded, indicating that Li Yifei has returned
Qian Fei decided to listen to Xiao Yuan and give Hu Zining a few days of silence
Qian Fei said: "No! I am asking, have you really read countless men in bed?"
Gui Lili raised her beautiful face, looking at her with a puzzled expression
"Have you been using several high-power household appliances at the same time at home?" she asked Gui Lili directly.
Li Yifei also lost his temper, "Don't you have any idea how much electricity you use every day? Are you bullying her? How can you be so shameless! She is poorer than us, can't you see that!" He pointed at Qian Fei and said to Gui Lili.
Qian Fei handed him a flashlight, "I have bought the fuses! Let's go to the hallway, you help me hold the flashlight, I will try it first. If I can change it myself, then no one will be delayed at work tomorrow!"
Qian Fei thought hard for a moment
She asked Li Yifei, "Is everything alright?"
The next day at noon during lunch, Qian Fei asked Xiao Yuan: "If your boyfriend wants to do something with you and you don't allow it, how long do you think he would be angry with you?"
Qian Fei pretended to sigh: "In order to live up to our surname!"
Li Yifei snorted and said: "Are you kidding? Can you even weld a phone?"
Li Yifei chuckled softly
Qian Fei suddenly felt a surge of anger upon hearing her "mm"
Xiaoyuan fluttered her eyelashes and said, "Really, can I still deceive you? Men must not be spoiled!"
While searching for the toolbox, she noticed something in the kitchen's trash can. She shone her flashlight on it and found a small notebook. Upon taking it out and examining it closely, she discovered it was the manual for a 2000-watt electric heater, and inside it was a small receipt indicating that the purchase date was one month ago
Qian Fei made a sound of "cut" and said: "My dad is the electrician at their unit, mhetushu.com. I have watched him change fuses at home since I was little"
Qian Fei's eyelids twitched incessantly. She gave up on arguing with Gui Lili, went into her room to take off her coat, turned on the flashlight, and went to the kitchen to look for the toolbox
Before falling asleep, she suddenly found some things quite interesting
Qian Fei returned to her room to wash up. After finishing her routine, she checked her phone, but Hu Zining had not sent her any messages. It seemed that he was still somewhat unhappy.
She let out a brief "oh"
This is not a power outage; it should be that the fuse has blown! Qian Fei told Gui Lili.
"We will pay the electricity bill for this month," he suddenly said
Xiaoyuan raised her hand and threw a crumpled napkin at Qianfei's face
There was no response. Qian Fei thought he must have fallen asleep
After she finished speaking, she seemed to hear Li Yifei chuckle.
Li Yifei made a sound of disapproval and said: "Can your family buy some high-quality fuses? They need to be replaced every few days! Is it because the good ones are too expensive?"
As soon as the refrigerator door is opened, it is filled with an overwhelming number of face masks face masks face masks
Gui Lili's expression changed suddenly, and she denied vehemently: "Are you suspecting that I blew the fuse? How is that possible! I wasn't using several appliances at the same time, Qian Fei!"
She looked at the manual in her hand, contemplating whether or not to discuss it with Gui Lili.
Qian Fei nodded and said with a righteous expression: "Well, I don't know what it is, but from the bottom of my heart, I just want to act with integrity this once"
She silently closed the refrigerator door
I am so exhausted that I can hardly recognize anyone, and my memory has completely faded. I actually forgot that the refrigerator at home is no longer a refrigerator; it has become a land of facial masks
Xiaoyuan said: "This matter is easy to handle. You just need to find an opportunity for him to do something to you, and once you both achieve a balance, you won't grow a beard anymore, and he will also calm down. Isn't that all there is to it?"
Li Yifei went back to her room to change clothes. She went to the living room, holding the instruction manual and the receipt, and said to Gui Lili: "Gui Lili, you turned on the electric heater, right? This thing can't be left on all the time; if it's on for too long, it can easily short-circuit. The fuse blowing tonight should be caused by this. Also, you see, this thing consumes a lot of electricity; this month's electricity bill is much higher than usual. How about we split this month's electricity bill?"
She suddenly understood why the electricity bill had skyrocketed this month, as she had previously thought there was an issue with the meter and had planned to schedule a time with the power company for them to come and take a look.
Qian Fei could not help but roll her eyes
She specifically went to a hardware supermarket that was quite far away, which stayed open until late. After returning, she lingered outside for a while, listening to the silence inside, before finally opening the door and entering the house
Gui Lili is indeed a difficult person to deal with; just the thought of interacting with her gives me a headache. In contrast, she feels that her relationship with Li Yifei has started to become more harmonious.
As Qian Fei passed through the living room to return to her room, the sound of the front door echoed; it was Li Yifei returning, carrying a bag of items in his hand. Gui Lili did not follow behind him
She thought for a moment and took the initiative to send a WeChat message to Hu Zining: Good night, Zining
Li Yifei glanced at her and said, "It's nothing, if you're tired from crying, you should go to sleep."
Qian Fei was astonished, "I didn't expect you to be so fierce!"
Qian Fei choked slightly: "That won't happen, but my dad said that if you can weld one thing for a lifetime, you can impress people. Back then, when the radio I used for listening to English listening exercises broke, I learned to weld radios from my dad. If I had known that English would be removed from the college entrance examination now, who would still bother to weld for listening exercises? I would have learned to weld a money printing machine instead!"
To be pointed at and told one is poor right in front of others...! ... Does Li Yifei not understand the meaning of not making things difficult for others in tough times!
Qian Fei was suddenly choked.
Xiaoyuan clicked her tongue twice and said, "You? Want to use the principle of yin and yang to treat your beard, yet still claim to be noble and upright? In my opinion, you simply don't genuinely like that person from the bottom of your heart!"
