Chapter 222 Who said I didn't want to do it?

Pei Muyi was absent-minded while eating lunch.

I check my phone frequently, afraid of missing any information.

But Lin Xiyin did not send any messages.

Pei Muyi didn't eat much before returning to his office.

There was another meeting in the afternoon. Pei Muyi sat in his office, one hand supporting his brow bone, the other scrolling through messages on his phone.

Where did they go to eat?

What will they say?

Will Lin Xiyin smile at him?

Chi Tianlin always speaks without tact, so will he use the excuse of dinner to fawn over Lin Xiyin?

Pei Muye couldn't control his wild thoughts.

The meeting continued until there was a knock on the office door, and the secretariat staff came in and said the meeting would begin in ten minutes.

Pei Muye waved his hand, indicating that he understood.

He got up, picked up the suit jacket next to him, put it on, and walked out while buttoning it.

The meeting lasted an hour, and Pei Muyi maintained a cold expression throughout.

His subordinates were terrified and dared not look him in the eye when reporting on projects.

Fortunately, Pei Muyi would occasionally drift off into thought, staring at his phone, and wouldn't react even after his subordinates finished reporting.

As the meeting was drawing to a close, there was a sudden knock on the meeting room door.

Everyone was stunned and subconsciously looked at Pei Muye's ashen face.

Who would suddenly knock on the door at this time?

The staff member who was closest to the door subconsciously got up to open it, but then stopped and looked at Pei Muye.

At that moment, the door opened by itself, and the person who entered was none other than Special Assistant Yue Linze.

He went to take care of other things and did not attend the meeting.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw it was him.

After all, Yue Linze's arrival can help them share some of Pei Muye's firepower.

All eyes were on Yue Linze, watching as he approached Pei Muye, bent down, and whispered something in Pei Muye's ear.

They didn't hear what was said, but they saw Pei Muye suddenly stand up, turn around and leave the conference room without saying a word.

Yue Linze continued to chair the meeting, which was fortunately nearing its end.

After the meeting, a director who was on good terms with Yue Linze jokingly asked him, "What earth-shattering thing has managed to steal our CEO Pei's soul?"

Someone else said, "Yeah, you have no idea, we were all scared to death, but then you came and said one sentence, and President Pei's mood instantly changed from stormy to sunny. He changed his expression so fast!"

Although Pei Muye walked quickly, no one missed the smile that appeared on his lips.

She had a tense expression before, but her steps became lighter as she walked.

Yue Linze didn't keep them in suspense: "The president's wife is here, how could I not be happy?"

It's common knowledge that Pei Muyi is in a relationship.

Last time, during a meeting, his phone rang. He answered it without any hesitation and then had to explain to everyone that it was his girlfriend calling.

Nobody asks about this.

His face clearly showed that he wanted to announce it to the world.

It's clear he truly cares about his girlfriend.

Pei Muye strode towards his office.

Pushing open the door, I saw Lin Xiyin standing in front of the French windows, looking down.

He closed the door, walked over, and hugged her from behind: "Why did you suddenly come? Don't you have to go to work this afternoon?"

Lin Xiyin turned around in his arms and hugged his lean waist: "I missed you, so I came. Aren't you welcome?"

What do you think?

After Pei Muye finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.

A kiss devoid of any lust.

Like two hibernating animals, they huddled together for warmth, rubbing against each other.

After the kiss, Pei Muye held her as they sat on a chair.

"Have you eaten?" Lin Xiyin asked him, "Will my coming over disturb your work?"

"I'm not full," Pei Muye said pitifully. "You said you'd send me a message, but you didn't, so I have no appetite."

"I forgot."

"You saw him and even forgot to send me a message?"

Lin Xiyin pinched his lips: "Why are you jealous? I was just afraid you'd overthink it, so after meeting him, I came to find you. If you're unhappy, I'll leave now."

Pei Muye put his arm around her waist: "No."

Lin Xiyin nestled in his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck: "Are you sure it won't interfere with your work? When I came, Assistant Yue said you were in a meeting."

"It's all over, nothing else." Pei Muyi lied through his teeth: "And you, what brings you here this afternoon?"

"Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll be jealous? Some work can only be done at home in the evening."

"Then... come to my place today?"

"Today is the day Mom and Uncle Yan got their marriage certificate. I wonder how they're going to celebrate."

"Will Auntie be living with Uncle Yan from now on?"

"I don't know."

"If they live together, then you and Youyou... can live with me, okay?"

“Mom and Uncle Yan live together because they are legally married and it’s perfectly reasonable for them to live together. We’re just boyfriend and girlfriend. It’s okay for us to stay together occasionally, but cohabitation? I’ve never thought about it.”

"Then let's get our marriage certificate too..."

"No," Lin Xiyin said, "It's too fast."

"Then tell me, how long would be appropriate?"

"I don't know either," Lin Xiyin said. "I haven't thought about marriage... Don't you want to date me anymore?"

"Of course not. Yinyin, you can fall in love after you get married."

“They’re not the same,” Lin Xiyin said. “How can husband and wife be the same as boyfriend and girlfriend?”

"Okay." Pei Muye hugged her. "I'll do whatever you say."

No matter how sour he felt before, he was only happy when Lin Xiyin came to find him.

As for marriage, what's the use of him being in such a hurry?

He asked Lin Xiyin, "But why did you suddenly decide to get your marriage certificate, Auntie?"

After all, they had said they were breaking up before.

Lin Xiyin said, "I don't know either, but I guess it's because my mother kept her illness a secret, which made Uncle Yan angry."

Lin Xiyin told Pei Muye about Qu Jianhang's illness last night and cried again.

Pei Muyi guessed at the time why Qu Jianhang had wanted him to marry Lin Xiyin so soon.

She probably felt she had a terminal illness and wanted to arrange all these things before she passed away.

When will Auntie's test results be available?

"It has to be tomorrow afternoon," Lin Xiyin said. "I'm so worried right now."

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here,” Pei Muye said. “We’ll find the best hospitals, the best doctors, and the best medicine… As long as there’s a glimmer of hope, we won’t give up. Besides, medicine is so advanced now, there’s bound to be a way.”

"good."

Pei Muye hugged her: "Yinyin, no matter what, I'll always be with you."

Lin Xiyin hummed in his arms.

The two sat quietly for a while, then Lin Xiyin got up, saying, "I won't disturb your work."

“It won’t bother you.” Pei Muye pressed her down, preventing her from moving. “You didn’t rest at noon, do you want to come and take a nap with me?”

"Don't you have a habit of not taking afternoon naps?"

"You'll have it once you come."

Pei Muye picked her up and carried her into the inner lounge.

Lin Xiyin was worried that he would do something reckless, so she rolled around on the bed twice and rolled to the innermost part: "I can only sleep, I can't do anything else!"

Pei Muyi loosened his tie and looked at her with a smile: "I didn't say what I was going to do. Or is it that you, Yinyin, have such expectations?"

"I didn't!"

Fortunately, Pei Muye didn't do anything; he just held her, and the two of them simply took a nap.

It wasn't that Pei Muyi didn't want to do it; he just noticed the bluish tinge under Lin Xiyin's eyes.

Because of Qu Jianhang's illness, she probably didn't sleep well last night.

So Pei Muye felt sorry for her and wanted her to sleep a little longer.

When Lin Xiyin woke up, she looked through the curtains and saw that the sun was about to set.

She slept for two hours.

She sat up, cleared her head for a while, and then got out of bed.

As Lin Xiyin opened the door to the lounge and was about to step out, she heard a sound outside.

But it was too late.

All eyes turned to them.

Besides Pei Muye and Yue Linze, there are two or three other people, all of whom are at the director level.

"Awake?" Pei Muyi got up and strode over. "Would you like some water? Or coffee?"

Lin Xiyin was a little embarrassed: "Are you busy? It's okay, don't worry about me."

Pei Muye took her hand and led her outside: "No rush. I'll introduce you to them now."

Yue Linze was his right-hand man, and the others were also senior executives in the company.

With a smile on his lips, he introduced Lin Xiyin.

Everyone present could see that Pei Muye was just showing off.

He boasted that Lin Xiyin was his girlfriend.

They said goodbye and tactfully left.

Lin Xiyin was still a little embarrassed: "I didn't know there were people outside, otherwise I wouldn't have come out."

"What's the big deal? It just lets them know that you're my girlfriend."

To be honest, Lin Xiyin felt very happy when Pei Muye introduced her to him.

It turns out that being recognized and appreciated by him during a relationship is also a kind of happiness.

After spending some time together, Lin Xiyin called Qu Jianhang.

Qu Jianhang had just woken up.

After getting their marriage certificate, they went to buy some more things. After lunch, Yan Chengyu kept his promise, pinned her down on the bed, and pampered her.

Then Qu Jianhang fell asleep.

However, when she woke up, Yan Chengyu was still beside her.

That's quite unexpected.

When she used to sleep with Yan Chengyu, most of the time, when she woke up, Yan Chengyu had already gone to work.

She answered Lin Xiyin's call: "Ruanruan, are you off work?"

"I took the afternoon off and I'm at Pei Muye's company now. Mom, have you and Uncle Yan made any plans for celebrating?"

Qu Jianhang smiled and said, "We've already celebrated."

"Huh?" Lin Xiyin asked curiously, "Were you celebrating at noon? Shall we have dinner together tonight? Also, now that you've registered your marriage, do you have any plans to have a wedding?"

Qu Jianhang glanced at Yan Chengyu.

Yan Chengyu was flipping through documents beside her when he squeezed her hand.

"We'll discuss this later," Qu Jianhang said. "I've booked a restaurant for tonight, let's go out to eat together."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Qu Jianhang went to look at Yan Chengyu: "You don't want to have a wedding, do you?"

"Who said that?" Yan Chengyu said, "Do it."

Qu Jianhang asked in surprise, "You're having a wedding?"

Yan Chengyu pulled the person into his lap and said seriously, "It's not that I want to hold it, it's that we want to hold it. If we don't have a wedding ceremony, how will anyone know we're married?"
