Chapter 89 Agreement

"Open it and take a look."

Ten minutes later, Li Ze and Xiao Jing, whose heart had sunk to the bottom, received a paper contract.

Li Ze opened it expressionlessly, flipped through two pages casually, and then pushed it to Xiao Jing who was standing aside.

He had already given up all hope, but when he looked up he caught a glimpse of the four big words "Investment Agreement" on it. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Pei Shinian in surprise.

With trembling hands, he flipped open the few thin pages of paper, and was even more surprised when he saw the contents clearly.

There wasn't even a guarantor listed.

"Aren't you afraid that we might run away with the money?"

Xiao Jing was deeply moved by Pei Shinian's actions, while Li Ze was extremely calm, as if he had expected this.

It turned out that Pei Shinian did not go out to make an excuse or reject them indirectly or directly, but just went to ask the assistant for some general information about "Lieqi" in recent years. When he read it for the first time, he couldn't believe that this would be the "Lieqi" in his memory.

It was not until he carefully read it from beginning to end several times that he confirmed that it was really the "curiosity". The difference from the previous life was too great. Could it be that his appearance caused the butterfly effect and the result was biased?

If that is the case, then it is his fault.

He immediately asked his confused assistant who was standing by to draft an investment agreement and inject capital into "Lieqi" in the name of Yunqi.

"Of course I believe you. Besides, I was once part of the 'curio hunt' and I don't want to see it fall."

Pei Shinian reached out and took the contract with a generous attitude, without any reluctance, and raised his hand to sign his name on the last page in a flamboyant manner.

After finishing the business, the huge rock that was pressing on Xiao Jing was removed. He immediately felt a lot more relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.

"Why are only the two of you here today? Don't Senior Gu and Senior Cheng have something else that prevents them from coming?"

"They should be holding an exhibition in a small town abroad now."

Talking about these two people, Xiao Jing did not have any resentment or dissatisfaction, just a little unwillingness. The brief interaction between them almost made him mistakenly believe that he and they were of the same class.

The setbacks he encountered in recent years made Xiao Jing gradually realize that he and Gu Yanxi were not from the same class.

It seems that the person sitting opposite me has achieved class transcendence through his own efforts.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jing's enthusiasm miraculously emerged again. The frequent setbacks in recent years almost made him forget that he used to be such a high-spirited person.

"After we finish our business, would you two seniors please do me a favor and have a meal with me?"

Pei Shinian spread his hands, as if to say, "If you don't go, you don't consider me a friend," which stunned Li Ze and Xiao Jing.

It was quite surprising to see him like this after not seeing him for five years.

Compared with the Pei Shinian I just met five years ago, the Pei Shinian in front of me seems more childish.

"Then we have to accompany our 'big money sponsor' well."

Xiao Jing raised the signed contract in his hand.

The three of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time. The office was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"The old place?"

"Okay, you won't come home until you're drunk tonight? Don't beg for mercy then."

How would you feel if three handsome guys with different styles came towards you?

The assistant's heart nearly jumped out of his throat and he was screaming hysterically in his heart, but he still managed a good expression on his face.

"Mr. Pei, do you need me to arrange a driver for you?"

"No, I won't come over tonight. Please sort out the unreviewed documents in my office before I go to work tomorrow. Send back the ones that have been reviewed and found unqualified so that they can redo them. You can arrange the rest."

After Pei Shinian finished explaining, he hurried downstairs and drove the car himself.

The assistant was left standing there with an expressionless face, and in his heart he was reaching out to Erkang.

--No! Boss, why do you leave work early and still throw your work to me? This is too much, too much, too much!

The three of them got reacquainted with each other during the meal in Jingbai. Pei Shinian shared some of his experiences abroad, and Xiao Jing knew that he had just returned to China and did not have a deep understanding of the domestic market, so he told Pei Shinian some information he thought was useful.

"You just returned to Beijing, so you still have to be more careful. Although Pei's has attracted the attention of almost half of the top companies in Beijing, I am afraid that the fight between Pei's and Shen's will affect Yunqi."

After drinking three or two glasses of wine, Xiao Jing spoke out all his worries. Lieqi and Yunqi are in the same boat. Only if Yunqi is doing well can Lieqi not have any financial problems.

"Do you all think that Shen's will attack Pei's?"

Five years was enough time for him to forget many people and many things, such as Shen Yuan, for so long that it seemed like a thing of his previous life.

"You may not know that since you haven't been in Beijing these years, the person in charge of Shen Group went crazy six years ago and ruined many companies. Even Lieqi was greatly affected. It was not until Mr. Shen came forward five years ago that Shen Yuan disappeared for a while. Although he has restrained himself compared to before, he still..."

Xiao Jing sighed deeply.

"I will."

In a blink of an eye, it was the time that Pei Shangyan had agreed with him to return home.

Pei Shinian put down his work early and set off to the airport to pick up the plane.

When he saw Lin Hexun, who shouldn't be here, in the crowd, he looked at him with confusion. The smile on his lips disappeared, his lips were tightly pursed, and his tone of voice was not very good.

"Why are you here too?"

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a little strange, Pei Shangyan hurriedly explained: "Dr. Lin happened to have something to return to China, so I invited him to visit our home."

"What?! He still wants to live in our house?"

Pei Shinian felt unwell when he met Lin Hexun's teasing eyes.

There was disdain in her brows, but even though she disdainted, she still had to show basic hospitality. She just didn't give him a good look. Over the years, people around them had become accustomed to the way they got along.

"Why? Master Pei, are you not welcome?"

Lin Hexun spoke in a lazy tone, staring at Pei Shinian's peach blossom eyes without blinking.

"How could that be? I really welcome Dr. Lin's arrival."

After some sarcastic talk, Pei Shinian led everyone back to the villa which had already been cleaned.

It is worth mentioning that Pei Shangyan lived in this villa before he left. After he left, he handed it over to his subordinates to manage. It has undergone several repairs over the years, so that the owner can continue to live here when he returns one day.

Standing outside the door, Pei Shangyan couldn't help feeling deeply emotional. This house carries the warm memories of his childhood.

--We're old. Not only am I old, but you're old too.

The exterior walls of the villa are mottled with visible traces of time, and the carved doors and windows remain exquisite despite the passage of time. Although the red tiles and white walls look brand new after renovation, the columns have been repainted in dark brown, faintly exuding a unique luster. It retains a retro charm, but also exudes a neat and elegant modern atmosphere, showing a unique style between the fusion of old and new.

With the flowers blooming in the courtyard, people will feel relaxed as soon as they step into the door.

"An An, if you are tired, go upstairs and rest first."

Pei Shinian looked at Pei An, who was visibly tired, and rubbed his head with heartache. He took him to a warmly decorated room on the second floor, kissed his forehead gently, and told him to have a good rest. Then he turned around and was about to leave the room.

But he didn't expect to run into Lin Hexun who had been standing at the door for who knows how long as he went out.
