Chapter 1121: Master Pei: I Know All Her Identities (2)
When the staff members came, they were full of vigor. When they left, they were dejected, as if they had fallen into the lowest point of their lives.
Su Ji got up, tilted her head, and looked at Pei Huai. “Actually, I quite like thes gown just now. There’s no need to go through so much trouble.”
“Really?” Pei Huai hugged her waist and pulled her closer to him.
Su Ji nodded. “Yes.”
Pei Huai asked again, “then, which one do you like the most?”
Su Ji:
She couldn’t answer.
Pei Huai raised his eyes and looked at her.
Su Ji narrowed her eyes and pushed his face away. “Sometimes, people don’t have to be too smart.”
Pei Huai laughed softly and leaned his head on her shoulder. “You’ll only marry me once, and I won’t let you marry anyone else. I want to give you the best wedding and find a dress that you really like”
Su Ji tightened her grip on his shirt.
The next day, Pei Huai officially ended his holiday and went to the company to resume work.
In order to better prepare for labor, Su Ji would temporarily live with Pei Huai in the old mansion starting from the new year.
This was also the result of Du Meilan and her friend’s discussion on New Year’s Eve.
Xiao Tong, Xiao Lingxian, and Aunt Gong had also returned.
Aunt Gong was still in charge of Third Young Mistress’ daily life.
Pei Huai came back from the office at four in the afternoon.
Shen Mu followed, which meant that he still had work to do.
He first followed his CEO to the study. A few minutes later, the butler brought in tea.
“Boss,” Shen Mu finished packing and sending a few emails, and his work came to an end. He let out a sigh of relief, closed his laptop, and looked at the man who was working seriously behind the desk. “Let me help you buy the things you want to buy later. You can also take this time to rest.”
The cooperation with Mr. Henry was already on the right track. During the new year, the first round of the project was starting to bear fruit. The prospects were so good that countless economics experts in the industry were speechless.
But at the same time, their CEO had also become busier.
Pei Huai had a pair of thin-rimmed glasses on his tall nose bridge. He looked like a cultured scum as he looked at the screen and planned his strategy.
“I’ll go myself,” he said calmly. His eyes were still on the data on the screen, and the pen between his fingers would occasionally turn.
Shen Mu didn’t dare to say anything else after his suggestion was rejected.
The butler poured the tea and was about to leave after removing the tea tray. Pei Huai seemed to have thought of something and looked up at him. “I might not be able to come back for dinner later. Let my wife eat first.”
“Ah.” The butler raised his head and his eyes suddenly darted a glance. “Yes, sir.”
He was about to leave when Pei Huai stopped him.
“Wait a minute.”
The butler paused.
Shen Mu felt that the atmosphere wasn’t right, so he looked over.
Pei Huai took off his glasses and threw them to the side. His long and sharp eyes seemed to be able to instantly see through the butler’s guilt.
“What happened to Madam?” he asked.
His voice was very cold.
The butler lowered his head. He knew that he could not hide it from his Third Master. When he turned around, a drop of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. “She’s not at home.”
Pei Huai:
The butler said, “Madam also said that she might not be back for dinner tonight…”
Pei Huai rubbed his temples. “What else did she say?”
“She also said…” The cold sweat on the butler’s forehead dripped down. “She even told me not to tell you…if you ask, I’ll say that I don’t know anything.”
Pei Huai:
He asked the butler to leave first, then glanced at Shen Mu with an ambiguous look.
Shen Mu quivered.
Why did he always hear things he shouldn’t have!
Couldn’t the butler wait until he was out?
He was very afraid that the CEO would silence him. The corners of his mouth twitched into an awkward but respectful smile. “Uh…the female lead in that novel is always like this. Her whereabouts are mysterious!”
Other than reading CP novels, he usually read all kinds of serial novels. All he could think of in a hurry were related things.
Pei Huai’s dark gaze fell on him. After a while, he said, “I know all her other identities.”
The corner of Shen Mu’s eyes twitched. As a hardcore book fan who had read countless books, he really wanted to tell the CEO that it was really inappropriate to say such absolute words…
Half an hour later, Pei Huai’s car left the Pei residence. Shen Mu was the driver.
In the direction that the car was heading, there was a very stylish library.
It was a huge seven-story building. This was not only City A, but also the largest library building in the country.
