After hanging up the phone, I immediately began packing my luggage.
But looking at the room full of things, all bearing traces of Pei Lizhou, I suddenly didn't know where to start.
Couple mugs, couple cushions, even the hair bands were couple items.
However, these were all paired up by me.
Back then, Pei Lizhou found it troublesome, so I took photos of his daily essentials to buy matching ones, forcefully turning them into couple items.
Now I realize, he wasn't avoiding it out of convenience, he simply didn't want to share with me.
I let out a bitter laugh, and threw them all into the trash one by one.
It wasn't until evening that I finished packing my luggage.
And upon another look, I found that the truly belonging to me in this home were pitifully few.
It wasn't until 12 o'clock at night that Pei Lizhou came back from the banquet.
As he entered and saw the luggage I had packed, he was a bit startled, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.
"Why suddenly pack your luggage?"
The strong scent of women's perfume clung to Pei Lizhou, the same as the perfume he gave me. I knew that after the banquet, he must have gone to see Xu Mo.
In the past, upon noticing something off, I would likely have questioned him.
But at this moment, I felt no waves at all.
"Business trip."
I responded indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Pei Lizhou's panic on his face was finally put away.
After a pause, he postured himself, came to me, and asked, "Have you thought about how you would confess to me for the 100th time? By then, you will change from Miss Ye to Mrs. Pei, you know."
There was laughter in his eyes, his voice full of delight.
But as I listened to these words, my heart felt as if pierced by a needle, only mocking myself for being so foolish.
There was no 100th time, no certificate.
Pei Lizhou, in three days, I'm leaving.
