BXBX NOVEL Chapter 90 - 90 She Seemed To Have Misunderstood Pei Jingzhou
Li Xiwu said, “Why don’t you send the food over later?”
He Wang’s smile did not fade. “Fourth Brother might not want to see me.”
At this point, He Wang suddenly remembered something. He casually mentioned, “I stayed there for a few more minutes at the Waldorf restaurant last time. In the end, Sister-in-law, you were too busy to go, so Fourth Brother blamed me. I was really wronged. However, because of this, I also realized a principle. Don’t appear when you shouldn’t. Otherwise, you’ll be unlucky.” After saying that, He Wang smiled helplessly.
!!
Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “The Waldorf Restaurant?”
He Wang smiled and suddenly froze. He glanced sideways at Li Xiwu’s expression. Sister-in-law’s expression… Did she not know?
He Wang was also stunned for a few seconds. However, he did not know what had happened, so he simply said, “Fourth Brother booked the Waldorf Restaurant the day before and was preparing to have dinner with you.”
Li Xiwu was suddenly silent. Pei Jingzhou booked the Waldorf Restaurant. Wasn’t he on a date with Xue Jinzhu? Was she imagining things, or was He Wang talking nonsense?
“Sister-in-law?” He Wang’s voice came.
Li Xiwu focused and replied steadily, “I was too busy that day.”
He Wang smiled and replied, “I thought Fourth Brother was already a workaholic, but compared to Sister-in-law, Fourth Brother is still better.”
Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “Did Fourth Brother wait long last time?”
He Wang raised his hand to support his chin. “Well, it didn’t take long…” Li Xiwu heaved a sigh of relief. However, He Wang did not finish his sentence. He paused and added, “From five in the afternoon to nine in the evening.”
Li Xiwu: “…”
Pei Jingzhou booked the Waldorf Restaurant and waited for her for four hours? She suddenly remembered that when she returned to the inn the next day, she saw a dozen missed calls. They were probably all calls Pei Jingzhou had made to her during the four hours he had been waiting for her. She had never received a single call because she had muted her phone that night…
He Wang teased, “Sister-in-law, are you feeling guilty? If you feel guilty, prepare a surprise for Fourth Brother next time. I think Fourth Brother seems to be looking forward to your surprise.”
Li Xiwu looked up at He Wang. “President He is an honest person.”
He Wang said, “That’s why I’m telling the truth.”
Li Xiwu smiled back. But the smile on her lips was faint. This was under the camera of a live broadcast. She knew very well that He Wang had no need to joke with her.
After all, with He Wang and Pei Jingzhou’s good relationship, if Pei Jingzhou really dated another woman, He Wang would naturally avoid mentioning this matter. It was impossible for him to suddenly mention this to her on camera. She seemed to have misunderstood Pei Jingzhou…
He Wang was about to take another skewer of barbecue. Just as he reached over, the entire plate of barbecue was taken away by Li Xiwu.
He Wang: “?”
Li Xiwu’s expression was calm. “This is for Fourth Brother. Roast another serving.”
He Wang instructed Pei You’an, “It’s time to work.”
Pei You’an put down his phone and quickly came over. “Sister-in-law, remember to ask Brother to pay.”
Li Xiwu made an OK gesture with her other hand. “It’s not a big problem.”
–
In the city.
After Han Qianye returned to the Pei Residence, she changed her clothes. When she went out, she brought Pei Jiao along. Pei Jiao rolled up the windows on both sides and switched to the starry sky mode exclusive to Rolls-Royce.
They arrived at Herti Beauty Salon. The employee outside the door recognized Mrs. Pei’s car at a glance and immediately got out to open the car door to welcome her.
As Han Qianye alighted, four more Herti employees came out one after another, followed by the manager. Only a top VIP guest like Han Qianye had such pomp and treatment.
Han Qianye asked as she walked, “Is Rongrong here?”
The manager replied, “Mrs. Zhou just arrived two minutes ago.”
Han Qianye and Lin Yourong were on good terms and often arranged to come to Herti together. The two of them were top VIP customers of Herti, so as long as Han Qianye mentioned Rongrong, the manager immediately knew that she was referring to Mrs. Zhou, Lin Yourong.
Lin Yourong, who was dressed in jewelry, waved at Han Qianye. “Qianye, come quickly. I’ll introduce someone to you.”
Han Qianye walked over. “I thought you would come later than me.”
Lin Yourong said, “I was planning to do my face today, but you happened to ask me out and we happened to meet.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Qianye noticed the young girl beside Lin Yourong.
Lin Yourong immediately shouted, “Huanhuan.” When Lin Huan heard her aunt call her, she immediately stood up. Lin Yourong held Han Qianye’s hand and introduced her happily, “Qianye, this is my niece, Lin Huan.”
Han Qianye’s expression became intriguing. “Is she the gilded niece you mentioned on the phone?”
“Yes.” Lin Yourong smiled so widely that her teeth were visible. She gestured to Lin Huan. “Huanhuan, greet them.”
Lin Huan looked at Han Qianye shyly. “Hello, Mrs. Pei. I’m Lin Huan.”
Han Qianye’s face was passable. “Hello.”
After answering, the smile on Han Qianye’s lips faded. Why did Lin Yourong call her niece over?
The three sat down.
Pei Jiao, who had walked in leisurely, casually found a seat and sat down to play with her phone. She did not participate in the bragging of the noble wife at all. Anyway, her mother had said that she would give her pocket money if she accompanied her here.
Lin Yourong pulled Lin Huan and praised her in front of Han Qianye, especially Lin Huan’s attainments in the designer industry.
Lin Huan blushed in embarrassment. She replied very humbly, “No, no. There are many powerful seniors in the designer industry. My current qualifications are really nothing.”
Han Qianye looked at Lin Huan. “Miss Lin, you’re too humble.”
Lin Yourong interrupted, “Why are you calling her Miss Lin? It’s so unfamiliar. Just call her Huanhuan.”
Han Qianye sized up Lin Huan’s outfit. “Huanhuan is indeed a designer. Your outfit is comparable to a celebrity.”
Lin Huan was very good at talking. “Auntie Han, your hat today is also very beautiful. The color and skin color match very well, making you look especially noble.”
Han Qianye smiled and remained silent. She was quite eloquent.
Lin Yourong’s face was about to bloom with laughter. “Qianye, look at our Huanhuan. She’s gentle, cute, and especially understanding. Her educational background is also a top university in Country H. Look at her hands…”
...
Lin Yourong picked up Lin Huan’s hand and caressed it. “Other than being able to draw designs and make clothes, she can also cook well. There’s nothing she doesn’t know.”
Han Qianye remained silent.
Lin Yourong was unsure of Han Qianye’s attitude. “Qianye, what do you think of our Huanhuan?”
After a few seconds of silence—
Han Qianye said, “NG.”
Lin Yourong was stunned. “What NG?”
Lin Huan did not understand. Pei Jiao did not understand either. Although Pei Jiao did not understand, it did not stop her from going to Baidu to check. When she found out, she said, “Oh, NG. It means not good.” After looking at her phone, Pei Jiao looked up at Lin Huan. “Miss, my mother said that you’re not good-looking.”
Lin Huan: “…”
Lin Yourong: “…”
Han Qianye: “…”
