The video call with the new number one chaebol family in Country A had just ended when Xiao Yi's video call came in seamlessly.
The moment the video was connected, Xiao Yi saw Pei Yucheng leaning back in a big chair, pinching his brows, looking extremely tired.
Xiao Yi frowned for a moment, then spoke after several seconds: "Just now, your video line was busy. Why did Xie Jin call you? What exactly is his intention?!"
Pei Yucheng kept rubbing his eyebrows and didn't show any intention of speaking for a long time.
After some introspective speculation, Xiao Yi added, "Xie Jin certainly has some strength and power, otherwise the Xie family's position in the chaebol circle would have remained unchanged since he took control of the family. Although, before Guo Pei's incident, he had been suppressed by the Guo family, but the chaebol circle in Country A, especially the energy faction, is ruthless and will not leave any bones. It is naturally not easy for him to maintain the family's status."
At first glance, Xiao Yi's words seemed to be nothing more than an analysis of the situation in Country A and the character of the new leader of the family.
but.
Pei Yucheng understood his subtext immediately.
Pei Yucheng paused his movements slightly, sat up straight, and as he leaned towards the desk, his eyes inadvertently caught sight of Xu Ze's cell phone resting on the pen holder.
The video call with Ji Yuqi has not been interrupted yet.
In the video.
The main bedroom of the hotel should only be decorated with two bedside wall lamps, the pale yellow light is particularly dim.
Because the lens is very far away.
Ji Yuqi's face was not big to begin with, and now, immersed in the vast light, it looked pitifully small.
but.
After she fell asleep, she was quiet, reflected in the light, peaceful and gentle, and looked particularly well-behaved.
At that moment, Pei Yucheng even felt that the lights on the other side of the camera, which had always been synonymous with dimness and coldness at night, now had some warmth.
Xiao Yi naturally noticed Pei Yucheng's abnormality.
Seeing his eyes fixed on someone, Xiao Yi asked in confusion, "Master, is there anyone else over there? Who?!"
Pei Yucheng ignored his meaning.
The next second he withdrew his gaze.
While looking directly at Xiao Yi, he deliberately lowered his voice: "Am I that stupid?!"
"???" Xiao Yi was a little confused, obviously not understanding Pei Yucheng's random words. What exactly did he mean?! His brain raced for a while before he realized that he was responding to Xie Jin's question.
Xiao Yi then continued his analysis, "The Xie family has risen in status after all. If nothing unexpected happens, Country A's energy will be controlled by his artist. Who would want to give away such a big piece of meat for free? And to someone from another country, especially one like him?"
First of all, I was indeed tired.
There were meetings all day long.
After it was over, I returned to the office and was flooded with video calls.
Secondly, I have a smoking urge.
Pei Yucheng sat there, tapping the table lightly with his slender, bony fingers. His eyes involuntarily glanced at Xu Ze's mobile phone screen. Finally, he took the cigarette box next to him, took out a black cigarette and lit it.
After puffing away elegantly for a while, he finally spoke calmly, "The rules of the Pei Family Kennel have always been: if you can tame them, you keep them; if you can't tame them, you either cripple them or let them die..."
