Chapter 97 Goodbye
This is an Italian restaurant.
The chef is a real Italian, the prices are high and reservations are required.
When Pei Yuzhi first arrived, he saw the decoration style here and thought he had come to the wrong place.
After all, Cheng Yun, although he was born into a wealthy family, he loved to eat barbecue on the roadside and fly restaurants in the alleys.
In his words, wine should be drunk in high-end places.
The dishes with the smell of hot pot are more suitable for his taste.
So he chose such a place, which made Pei Yuzhi feel strange.
"It's not your style."
Pei Yuzhi leaned lazily on the chair, the bruises on his back had not disappeared, he carefully avoided that position, moved several times to find a comfortable sitting position.
Cheng Yun sneered: "Mr. Pei, we agreed that no matter what we see later, we must not get excited."
Pei Yuzhi raised his eyes, "What's the matter?"
Cheng Yun looked away: "This is Shanghai, and we are outsiders. It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, cough."
The casual smile on Pei Yuzhi's face faded, and he said coldly: "Cheng Yun."
Cheng Yun felt a chill on his back and immediately pointed upwards:
"When I called you, I saw Huo Qiao going upstairs with a man."
"With whom?"
"- We met when we were in Dongsu. Huo Qiao's fiancé is the one named Xie."
Dong!
Pei Yuzhi stood up suddenly.
Cheng Yun's eyes flickered, and he said, "Mr. Pei, please don't be anxious. I don't think Huo Qiao and him are very close. Maybe they just want to have a meal together."
Pei Yuzhi looked at the second floor with cold eyes.
Just when Cheng Yun was terrified and thought he was going to go crazy, Pei Yuzhi sat back.
Cheng Yun's eyes flickered.
It was unclear whether he was relieved or disappointed.
Pei Yuzhi's eyes darkened. He might know what happened yesterday when Cheng Yun lost his composure and almost braked suddenly downstairs in the hotel.
"Mr. Pei, are you not angry anymore?"
"Cheng Yun, do you want me to get angry and confront Xie Linyuan, or do you not want to?"
Cheng Yun's expression was slightly stiff: "Why would I want to make you angry?"
The anger in Pei Yuzhi's eyes faded, he lowered his eyes and picked up the teacup, and asked casually:
"Yesterday Xie Jinchuan came to you, and he just asked you to pass on a message? To make me completely hostile to Xie Linyuan?"
"-How did you know?"
"Tsk, I said, you are stupid every time you act smart."
After a moment of silence, Cheng Yun whispered: "Sorry."
Pei Yuzhi: "Can you get away with Xie Jinchuan like this?"
Cheng Yun: "I guess so, he just asked me to bring you here."
Pei Yuzhi: "Yeah."
Cheng Yun is different from Pei Yuzhi.
Many businesses of the Cheng family are dependent on the Xie family in Dongsu.
Xie Jinchuan can still cause some trouble to Cheng's business.
There is no free lunch in the world. If he wants Cheng Yun to help him, he must not let Cheng Yun's fundamental interests be damaged.
Cheng's company is Cheng Yun's bottom line.
What's more, Cheng Yun's performance today was deliberate and clumsy.
Pei Yuzhi just went along with him to play a little.
"Mr. Pei, thank you."
Cheng Yun's face was not good. After all, it was not pleasant to be controlled by
others. He used to like Xie Jinchuan. Xie Jinchuan was like a white moonlight in his heart. He was happy to do anything the other party did.
Moreover, Cheng's business really needs the support of the Xie family. But
I don't know when he started to become unwilling.
Unwilling to be used by Xie Jinchuan.
It was like he was an insignificant garbage that could be thrown away at will.
He still remembered a sentence Pei Yuzhi once said.
Maybe he didn't like Xie Jinchuan enough.
Pei Yuzhi said lightly: "I have to thank you."
Otherwise, he didn't know that Huo Qiao met Xie Linyuan again under his nose. Cheng
Yun was puzzled: "Thank me?"
Pei Yuzhi raised his chin and said with a smile:
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't know that Xie Linyuan was still unwilling to give up and wanted to poach my people."
Cheng Yun: ...
Cheng Yun ate this meal with fear.
He had to call Pei Yuzhi here. He really didn't want to see Pei Yuzhi and the Xie family of the Magic City become enemies.
After all, his tens of millions were just deposited into Pei Yuzhi's new company account yesterday.
Tsk.
What a fucking trouble.
Fortunately, Pei Yuzhi was still rational and managed to finish the meal.
Until Huo Qiao and Xie Linyuan came down from the second floor.
Pei Yuzhi looked at his watch with a dull expression:
"They entered the store earlier than us, and we have been eating for nearly 40 minutes, which means that Huo Qiao and that pretty boy have been alone together for more than an hour."
Cheng Yun: ...
That's a good calculation.
"Then, you want..."
"I want? What's the use of wanting? Don't you see if Huo Qiao cares about me."
Pei Yuzhi's words were sour and depressed.
He stared at the two people who were walking out, and his eyes were about to spark.
He was hit with a stick, but it had little effect.
Neither WeChat nor the phone were pulled back.
Even the message that Ppt sent to Huo Qiao, Huo Qiao ignored it.
"...Mr. Pei, how did you offend Huo Qiao?"
Pei Yuzhi suddenly fell silent, and the expression on his face faded a little.
Because of Bai Xi.
Because of the one-night stand that Pei Yuzhi couldn't say.
"—I'll go first, tomorrow morning you go directly to the company to find Secretary Qian."
*
Huo Qiao sent Xie Linyuan to the car and let out a sigh of relief.
The meal was finally over.
But Xie Linyuan's attitude didn't seem to give up.
Huo Qiao frowned with some annoyance.
The Xie family is indeed a family friend of the Cui family, but the last time Cui Xianxing was sent away from the Magic City, it was definitely the work of the Xie family.
Huo Qiao didn't understand why Cui Xianxing didn't break up with the Xie family, but instead asked him to comfort Xie Linyuan again.
No matter how confused he was, Huo Qiao had full authority over the Tanshuiwan project. He just invited Xie Linyuan to have a meal at Cui Xianxing's request, and listened to his useless words.
He turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't expect that someone stood behind him.
Because of surprise, his pupils dilated slightly, and he subconsciously staggered back a step.
"Are you so surprised to see me?"
A familiar and powerful arm suddenly grabbed his waist and pulled him into his arms with force.
It was Pei Yuzhi.
"What did you talk about with that pretty boy? An hour, aren't you tired?"
Huo Qiao said the resentment and grievance, and his heart fell heavily.
Pei Yuzhi's unique breath filled his nostrils, and Huo Qiao's heart, which had just fallen to the ground, seemed to be pinched by someone and shrank into a ball.
[—Looking at his appearance, the wound on his back should not hurt anymore. ]
Pei Yuzhi did not expect Huo Qiao to think of his injury first.
Bubbles of sourness gurgled out, his eyes moved slightly, and he immediately lowered his eyes, his tone became more pitiful.
"You threw me downstairs that day, and I went to the hospital by myself. The doctor said that I almost hurt the bone. Huo Qiao, feel it, it's still swollen now."
Pei Yuzhi pulled up his hanging hand and probed into his clothes.
Huo Qiao was not aware of it for a moment, and his fingers had already reached into the wide sweatshirt and touched a burning skin.
It seemed to be really painful, Pei Yuzhi shrank subconsciously and hissed softly.
Huo Qiao's fingers curled up and he was about to retract them.
But Pei Yuzhi pressed his palm and placed it on his injured part.
Huo Qiao felt his back tense up, and his heart softened. He no longer had the strength to struggle.
Pei Yuzhi rested his chin on the top of his head and sighed,
"Give me a chance, okay? Once I find out, I will tell you everything about Bai Xi and me."
