Chapter 1033 Baby, baby, baby...

The price to pay for asking Shang Shiyan for help.

It's too big.

Pei Jinwu was kept up until 3 a.m. before she could fall asleep, and she had to get up at 7 a.m. to go to school.

"Oh, those panda eyes are so cute." Shang Shiyan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the dejected Pei Jinwu, and teased her deliberately.

"Try laughing again!"

Pei Jinwu grabbed a pillow and threw it at him, glaring at him fiercely.

"Don't laugh."

Shang Shiyan stopped smiling, gently pulled her into his arms, and rubbed her little face against his, saying, "Shall I carry you to brush your teeth?"

It's because she has to go away for three days for this exchange meeting.

He couldn't control himself because he thought he wouldn't see anyone for three days.

What should we eat for breakfast?

Pei Jinwu let him carry her into the bathroom, asking him questions that were unclear.

"Mini pork wontons." Shang Shiyan squeezed toothpaste onto her toothbrush.

Hug her from behind and call her "baby" over and over again.

Pei Jinwu recalled the absurdity of last night.

It was in the bathroom, right there, that he lost control of his emotions and called her "baby".

"Shut up."

Pei Jinwu's cheeks felt hot. She quickly brushed her teeth and then rinsed her face with water.

Push him away, change your clothes, and go downstairs.

"Good morning, Madam." Wang Ma had already set out breakfast and greeted her with a smile.

Shang Shiyan followed closely behind, his steps languid, carrying Pei Jinwu's schoolbag in his hand.

He looked refreshed and in a good mood.

Good morning, sir.

"You go ahead and do your work, I'll be fine here at the restaurant." Shang Shiyan arranged a chair for Pei Jinwu and blew on her wontons to cool them down. "I've already packed your luggage and put it in the car beforehand."

"Tsk."

Pei Jinwu ate her wontons, glanced at him, and didn't say anything.

"The weather in City A has been bad lately, so don't wear thin clothes to avoid getting chilled."

"Tsk."

Pei Jinwu didn't directly refute, but tugged at her collar unhappily.

There are two faint hickeys on her collarbone.

"Cough cough."

Shang Shiyan cleared his throat awkwardly and coaxed softly, "I've been researching several new dishes recently and have Feng Xing and Feng Zhi try them. If there are no problems, I'll make them for you to try when I get back."

"snort."

Pei Jinwu finished eating and looked at him with her chin propped up: "Fengxing and Fengzhi are truly blessed to have a boss like you."

"I think so too." Seeing that she was in a good mood, Shang Shiyan took the opportunity to give her a few more instructions.

——

Emperor Da.

Shang Shiyan escorted the person to the door, and as he was leaving, he ran into Professor Tong.

"Mr. Shang, taking your wife to school?" Professor Tong said, carrying an old suitcase, his sparse short hair growing increasingly white.

He was short and thin, and his face was full of wrinkles when he smiled.

Taking his wife to school?

That sounds really weird!

"Professor Tong, good morning." Shang Shiyan nodded slightly. "I'll be entrusting Wuwu to your care at this exchange meeting in City A."

"Oh dear, me taking care of her?" Professor Tong glanced at the girl next to him, dressed quite coolly with her hands in her pockets, and felt a chill run down his spine.

She's already thankful that he doesn't bully her.

"Don't worry, I will," Professor Tong replied with a smile. "Besides, Pei is a child who doesn't cause us any trouble."

Professor Tong has a firm grasp on the intricacies of human relationships and social interactions.

"good."

Shang Shiyan nodded, and before leaving, he walked up to Pei Jinwu and said, "Call me anytime if anything happens."

"So long-winded."

Pei Jinwu looked up at him, her brows furrowed: "Let's go quickly, more and more people are looking at you, you'll become an eyesore."

"I'm leaving now." Shang Shiyan raised an eyebrow and smiled. Before leaving, he hugged Pei Jinwu tightly: "I'll miss you, baby."

They also call her "Baby".

You filthy bastard.

"Get out, get out, get out." Pei Jinwu pushed him away and strode into the school.

"I'm leaving, Mr. Shang." Professor Tong shook his head and sighed as he witnessed the interaction between the two.

Sigh.

After marriage, Mr. Shang's status really declined more and more.

——

This exchange meeting.

A team of six people from the Computer Science Department of Imperial College London, led by Professor Tong, participated.

Two PhDs, two Masters, and one second-year undergraduate student, "Conspicuous Bao Pei Jinwu".

"You won't even need to say a word. Just standing there will make you look better than other schools that have produced dozens of achievements."

Professor Tong led Pei Jinwu outside, extremely excited: "Many foreign schools are participating in this conference. It's a good opportunity to show our faces and bring honor to our country."

"Tsk."

Pei Jinwu snorted twice and deliberately said, "Why don't you just hang me up at the school gate?"

"Is that alright?" Professor Tong asked, craning his neck, seemingly having given it serious thought.

Pei Jinwu: "..."

"Oh, right, there's something else I need to take care of this time." Professor Tong became serious. "A young professor from Country F is returning to China for employment, and many universities are vying for him."

"He's a computer genius, just like you."

"The school's idea is that it would be best if we could persuade him to come to our school."

"I heard he idolizes you."

"..."

Pei Jinwu paused, glaring at him angrily: "Is this the real reason you sent me here?"

Not only do they have to be eye-catching, but they also have to be persuaders.

Professor Tong: "Hehe."

——

The two had just arrived at the door.

Several senior brothers immediately waved excitedly.

"These students haven't seen me in a long time, look how excited they are."

Professor Tong shook his head helplessly, a proud look on his face, and was about to speak: "You..."

"..."

The four of them passed by him, went straight to Pei Jinwu, surrounded her, and excitedly kept saying, "Goddess Pei, we..."

"?"

Professor Tong's smile froze on his face, and he stood there awkwardly.

"Cough cough..."

Seeing that the others completely ignored him, Professor Tong deliberately made a commotion.

"Professor Tong."

The four of them then realized what had happened and said with a smile, "When did you arrive? We didn't even see you."

Professor Tong: "?"

——

Arrived in City A.

The opening ceremony was scheduled for 10:00 a.m. the next day, and the group first checked into the hotel.

Pei Jinwu had just sat down when she received a call from Shang Shiyan.

Have we arrived?

"Um."

Pei Jinwu took her phone, walked to the balcony, and strolled around leisurely.

"Get some rest." Shang Shiyan smiled and said softly, "Would you like some dessert? I'll order some and have it delivered to your hotel."

"OK."

Pei Jinwu sat in the chair, swinging her legs: "Buy more, and send some to Old Man Tong and the others too."

She's a seasoned foodie, and she gets angry when she finds out she's sneaking food.

"Hmm." Shang Shiyan twirled the pen tip, a hint of annoyance on his brow. "Did you miss me? I missed you."

"Oh." Pei Jinwu raised an eyebrow, smiling smugly. "Then you can think about it."

"..."

Shang Shiyan choked, then couldn't help but laugh.

You heartless little thing.

“I’ve adjusted Grandma’s recipe. You can deliver it to her personally this afternoon.”

"Um."

"..."

As Pei Jinwu spoke, her gaze drifted to a spot not far away, and she inadvertently met the eyes of the man in the opposite room.

The man was tall and slender, wearing a sharp black suit, with his hair parted to the side, a few strands falling down to cover his narrow eyes.

With striking features and deep-set eyes, he's a quintessential handsome man with striking good looks.

The man held his wine glass, staring at her with a meaningful look.

There was an inexplicable "dampness" that made it difficult to approach.

——

good evening.
