Gu Mingxi pursed her lips with an apology on her face: "I'm sorry..."

The corners of the eyes are obviously red...

Long Ziqi's expressionless expression flashed through a trace of fog...

She cried.

Why?

******************Master, please recommend the dividing line for votes******************

In the President's Office, Lu Banxia put the documents he had screened on his desk. His long hair was tied up to reveal his exquisite facial features. He was dressed in a black suit that covered his bulging figure. He was slightly sexy yet capable and neat.

Long Pei's eyes glanced at her hand unintentionally, leaving a scar on Bai Xi's skin that has not yet completely healed.

"What happened? It's not healed yet." He said in a low voice without even raising his eyelids.

Lu Banxia's hand froze for a moment, and there seemed to be a dull pain coming from the wound, as if the skin was burned by fire. His expression was calm, and he said lightly: "I accidentally got scalded by boiling water."

Accidentally scalded by boiling water?

This wound is probably a month or two old. The burn is so serious. Is it still taking a long time to heal?

Long Pei paused with the pen in his hand, suddenly raised his head and asked her: "How long has Bai Yan been gone?"

There was a hint of panic in his calm eyes, and his cold expression tried his best to maintain his composure, "Nearly two months."

Two months later, her wound had been left since Bai Yan left. There was a chill in her eyebrows, and her voice was cold: "Ban Xia, you are a smart woman."

It's not that some injuries won't heal, it's that she doesn't want to let them heal.

Lu Banxia's thin lips revealed a silent bitter smile. Everyone said that she was a smart woman. A smart woman shouldn't be stupid for the sake of a romantic relationship.

My father said the same thing.

With her hands behind her back, her fingers couldn't help but want to pinch the newly healed wound. It was the same every time. When the scar was healed, she couldn't help but pinch it, leaving the wound as if she could remember something.

In fact, I can't remember anything.

"Sir, I am sensible." He said calmly.

Long Pei didn't say anything. He kept staring at her calm expression with his sharp eyes. His cold eyes were so sharp that he seemed to be able to see through the soul behind this soft body, which made people feel ashamed.

Lu Banxia bit her inner lip secretly. Even after so many years of training, she still couldn't resist his natural majesty and momentum when facing his sharp and cold gaze. She slowly let go of the hand holding the wound...

The cracked scar oozed bright red blood...

"Bai Yan also said this to me back then." What happened? He was still stuck in feelings and couldn't extricate himself, and in the end his own future was ruined.

Lu Banxia's body trembled, and a trace of sadness and despair flashed in his eyes, "I understand."

"Take care of the wound and give you a day off." It's not that Long Pei really cares about Lu Banxia, ​​it's just that Bai Yan has left, and he needs a secretary-general who is capable and dedicated to assisting him.

Lu Banxia came from a good family, with excellent abilities and accomplishments, and was promoted by Bai Yan. Now Long Pei has used her as Bai Yan. If he loses the second Bai Yan, his loss will be great.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Lu Banxia did not show off. This is the last chance you have given yourself. If you return to work and are still in this state, you will definitely transfer yourself. "I have nothing else to do and I will go out first."

Long Pei nodded, indicating that she could leave first.

Lu Banxia walked out of the office. When she turned her head, she could see the scenery outside the window. The hazy sky was filled with snowflakes that were floating in the wind at an unknown time. It was beautiful but also cold.

His eyes fell on the bleeding hand, and a paleness swept through his eyes...

In this vast and heavy snow, I don't know where that person is and whether he is okay at this moment.

*********************The dividing line for young master’s recommendation votes******************

It was snowing heavily on Christmas Eve, and Long Pei really did not return to the main house. Because a meeting lasted for three hours with no results, Long Pei kept a sullen face and dragged everyone away until there was a result.

After the meeting, everyone else quickly left the presidential palace to go home to reunite with their families. Long Pei also had a meeting with the think tank. He couldn't stop it from the beginning until late at night. In the second half of the night, he simply rested in the office lounge and had a change of clothes.

, which is quite convenient.

Christmas.

Gu Mingxi asked Ru Bing to purchase Christmas trees and lanterns. The servants were busy decorating them. She wanted to join them, but Ru Bing stopped her. She was only allowed to watch, and she could give instructions, but she was not allowed to do it herself.

The one-meter-tall Christmas tree is hung with colored lights, which looks extremely beautiful after being powered on. The windows of the house are covered with snowflakes, and there are colorful balloons everywhere, creating a joyful atmosphere.

Ru Bing smiled and sighed: "Madam, the Presidential Palace has not been so lively for a long time."

Gu Mingxi looked at the lively atmosphere and showed an elegant smile. In fact, she was not interested in festivals, but with two children at home, it was always good for her to create some lively atmosphere.

Long Lifei took Long Ziqi's hand and went downstairs. He was stunned for a moment when he saw such a scene. Then he saw Gu Mingxi's smiling expression, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised.

Long Ziqi opened his eyes wide and looked at the red and green things, as well as the snowflakes hanging on the window, and his eyes brightened up.

Gu Mingxi saw them standing at the top of the stairs and asked with a smile: "Are you satisfied?"

"Not bad." Long Lifei gave a two-word evaluation, which was already very good.

Gu Mingxi looked at Long Ziqi beside him: "You like it too, right?"

Long Ziqi said nothing and kept staring at the lights on the Christmas tree. There was no doubt that she liked them.

Gu Mingxi saw Long Lifei wearing a coat and asked, "Are you going out now?"

"Yeah." Long Lifei let go of Long Ziqi's hand and let her go play by the Christmas tree, "Something happened."

Gu Mingxi thought that he might be going to the Haoting Garden. If he waited for Long Pei to come back before going, Long Pei might not agree. He had a grudge against Yi Ruo, but the child couldn't resent him. He stepped forward and hugged Long Lifei, and told him

Said: "It's cold, come back early."

"I will." Long Lifei said goodbye to her, then said goodbye to Long Ziqi and left.

Gu Mingxi walked him to the door and stood at the door watching him get into the car. Long Ziqi also came over and stood beside her to watch him off.

Long Ziqi's eyes were obviously not as bright as before. When Long Lifei's car disappeared from her sight, she lowered her eyes, her whole person feeling gloomy and indifferent.
