Chapter 282 It Must Be an Illusion



Aren’t they married?

Although it was a marriage by agreement, as a wife, she had no sense of crisis when promoting herself in front of him!

But Pei Qinghuan thought he had lived up to the praise for today, so he sat contentedly on the stool waiting for dinner to start.

Gu Jinchen continued to work with some helplessness.

"By the way, what are you going on this business trip to do?"

Pei Qinghuan said bluntly, "I'm going to work for the Su family. Su Ningyue opened a gaming company and invited me to be a special guest on their new game. The salary is really high!"

"Of course, this money will also be invested in my clothing store."

Gu Jinchen was surprised: "Game company?"

This is quite different from the Su family's business.

Pei Qinghuan nodded. "Yes, it was Su Ningyue who developed my gaming talent. But how should I put it? I think gaming is more like work, and clothing is my hobby."

Gu Jinchen smiled: "You are doing quite well in taking care of both."

Pei Qinghuan smiled shyly: "Hehe, actually I've been a little overwhelmed recently, so I handed the store over to Li Lele, the manager I just hired not long ago, and he's doing a pretty good job."

She said nervously, "Isn't this putting the cart before the horse? I can't take care of the clothing store because of the game."

Gu Jinchen smiled faintly and comforted: "It's okay, just let it go. Just take care of this business trip first. The answer will be given at another time. If you don't want to do something, you won't want to do it no matter how hard you force it."

Pei Qinghuan relaxed: "Yeah, why should I be so anxious?"

She had a thoughtful expression: "Mr. Gu, I find that you have a magical power that can make people calm down quickly."

Gu Jinchen raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

"Then it seems I'm quite useful to you."

Pei Qinghuan chuckled: "That's more than just good, it must be very useful, otherwise I would doubt my judgment of choosing a partner!"

When Gu Jinchen heard the word "partner", his heart skipped a beat. Then when he heard the word "cooperating partner", he immediately calmed down.

"...I won't say any more. I'm going back to my room first. You can eat slowly."

Pei Qinghuan didn't understand why Gu Jinchen suddenly wanted to leave, so he asked, "Mr. Gu, aren't you going to eat?"

Gu Jinchen: ...

"I'm not hungry."

Pei Qinghuan stood up: "How can that be possible? No, as a chef, you must be full. Otherwise, it would be too unreasonable to serve a diner like me!"

Gu Jinchen pondered helplessly for a second.

He originally felt that he had been too emotionally exposed and unstable because of Pei Qinghuan recently, and wanted to go back to his room to avoid it, but he was stopped unexpectedly.

Gu Jinchen sighed, remembering that the last time he wanted to avoid Pei Qinghuan, he chose to go on a business trip.

The result was fruitless.

The main reason is that everyone thought they had succeeded.

Because of the busy work and the fatigue of traveling during business trips, I really don’t have time to think about other things.

But when I came back and saw Pei Qinghuan, those emotions came back.

Gu Jinchen glanced at Pei Qinghuan with a complicated expression, even wondering if he was sick.

Before he had time to recall too much, Pei Qinghuan pulled him over.

"Mr. Gu, come on, sit down and have something to eat."

She filled a bowl and handed it to him with a smile.

Gu Jinchen's palm holding the spoon began to sweat inexplicably, and he lowered his head and started eating silently.

Pei Qinghuan asked: "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Gu Jinchen hummed softly.

I completely forgot I did this myself.

And the food has no taste.

But it was a bit sweet, which was strange, as he clearly remembered not adding sugar?

Pei Qinghuan smiled and said, "I added some sugar."

Gu Jinchen frowned, then unfolded it, and suddenly realized that he was not sick.

Pei Qinghuan explained, "Because I thought adding some sugar would be more suitable, and it seems to be quite good, I put some in mine too."

She ran to the kitchen and picked up the seasoning bottle and took a look.

"Oops, wrong place, this is salt!"

Gu Jinchen paused while drinking the soup.

The next day, Gu Jinchen didn't have time to go to the cafeteria, so he had lunch directly in the office.

The housekeeper was afraid that he was not full, so he specially sent him lunch and soup that had been stewed for a long time.

Gu Jinchen looked at the soup, and the color was very similar to yesterday's.

As he watched, he suddenly remembered that Pei Qinghuan, that woman, could actually turn sugar into salt.

I couldn't help but curl the corners of my mouth slightly.

The housekeeper was relieved: "Master, you haven't laughed for a long time."

Gu Jinchen frowned.

The butler stopped laughing.

Gu Jinchen finished his lunch without saying a word, and then the housekeeper came forward and cleaned up the place honestly.

Gu Jinchen frowned, glanced at the silent and honest housekeeper, lowered his head, and looked up again.

The housekeeper was puzzled: "Master, what's wrong?"

Gu Jinchen pursed his lips: "You...read less of those indecent novels."

The butler sobbed, "Okay, Master."

I don’t know if the young master can adapt to the fact that his wife has been away on business for so long. What should he do if he misses his wife?

If Gu Jinchen knew what he was thinking, he would definitely yell that it was absolutely impossible to prove himself!

In the blink of an eye, it's time to get off work.

Because Pei Qinghuan suddenly went on a business trip, Gu Jinchen was a little uncomfortable when he saw the empty house when he returned home.

But I'm just not used to it.

He secretly suppressed his thoughts, went back to the room, turned on the computer and finished the remaining unfinished work.

As he was doing it, he felt sleepy and looked at the time out of habit.

It's already twelve o'clock.
