While yelling that he was doomed, Huo Jiayuan quickly finished washing his face, brushing his teeth, and changing his clothes.
Huo Jiayuan has gotten used to sleeping until 11 or 12 in the past few days.
Thinking that Pei's father was here, Huo Jiayuan even set an alarm for himself.
My alarm clock goes off at 7:30 in the morning.
Huo Jiayuan overestimated himself; he didn't even realize when he turned off the alarm clock.
I woke up at 11 o'clock.
Normally, at this time, Huo Jiayuan would at least take another nap in bed.
When Huo Jiayuan saw the time today, he immediately sprang out of bed.
Coming downstairs, when he saw Pei's father sitting on the sofa, Huo Jiayuan could only close his eyes and brace for the storm.
Huo Jiayuan walked up to Pei's father and obediently greeted him, "Dad."
Pei's father looked Huo Jiayuan up and down, and words of complaint were on the tip of his tongue.
However, Pei's father thought of Pei Zhi leaving last night with her thermos.
"You haven't had breakfast yet? Go get something to eat first. Don't sleep in so late in the future; it's bad for your health."
Huo Jiayuan looked at Pei's father with disbelief in his eyes.
Huo Jiayuan thought that Pei's father would scold him again for sleeping until noon, saying it was improper of him to get up like that.
Huo Jiayuan was prepared to be scolded, but Pei's father let him off so easily.
Huo Jiayuan turned and walked towards the restaurant, glancing back every few steps to avoid Pei's father regretting it and scolding him again.
Looking at Huo Jiayuan's foolish appearance, Pei's father could only shake his head helplessly.
Pei's father indeed disliked Huo Jiayuan's character.
But this cannot be the reason why Pei Zhi had an affair.
Pei Zhi slept in the guest room last night and got up to go to the company before seven o'clock this morning.
Although there were no meetings in the morning, Pei Zhi still had a lot of things to deal with at the company.
Looking at the pile of things to do, Pei Zhi was really curious about how those domineering CEOs had the time to travel abroad and cross cities to catch their young wives all the time.
She was only on her honeymoon for a few days, and Pei Zhi worked every single day of her trip.
Nevertheless, there was still a lot of work piled up after I returned.
"Next week, the amusement park will be preparing for its ribbon-cutting ceremony. This is the site layout plan, and we have also invited the following celebrities to come and support us."
Pei Zhi took the documents handed to her by Assistant Gao; several of the celebrities had previously collaborated with the company.
"We also invited some industry partners; please take a look at the list."
Pei Zhi glanced at the list and said, "Let's not invite Fu Shen."
Assistant Gao was somewhat surprised, "But Mr. Fu helped us when we applied for this land, and now..."
Now that the amusement park is built, it seems inappropriate not to invite people over, right?
If you invite them but they don't come, that's fine.
But if you don't plan to invite them, it's just a matter of politeness, right?
Pei Zhi put down her pen and said, "Huo Jiayuan will also be here that day."
Assistant Gao nodded knowingly; he knew a little about the things between Fu Shen and Pei Zhi.
"Then I'll contact Mr. Fu's assistant directly?"
Pei Zhi took a box out of the drawer. "Go tell him personally, and while you're at it, give this to his assistant and say it's an early birthday present from me."
The sports car that was originally intended was used to appease Huo Jiayuan.
Pei Zhi then found a jade Buddha in the Pei family's storeroom.
Judging from the quality of the jade, Pei Zhi also inquired about its origin; it was a gift for peace and health.
The Pei family's storeroom should contain nothing of inferior quality.
Assistant Gao picked up the documents and the box in her hand, then left.
They bumped right into Qu Miaoyu, who was about to come in, saving her the trouble of knocking.
Qu Miaoyu held a cup of coffee in her hand, shook it, and placed it in front of Pei Zhi.
"Apologetic gift."
Pei Zhi was indeed a bit tired, and took it with a hint of annoyance.
Pei Zhi said helplessly, "If you don't like Huo Jiayuan, can you please not cause me trouble?"
Pei Zhi knew that Qu Miaoyu disliked Huo Jiayuan.
But if Qu Miaoyu plays it that way, wouldn't Pei Zhi be caught in the middle?
Working until midnight and then having to go back to comfort people is exhausting.
"There's no other way. I feel that only Pei's father can cure Huo Jiayuan."
Seeing that Qu Miaoyu had no intention of repenting, Pei Zhi did not intend to be polite to her.
"In that case, there's no need for the company to renew Xiao Chen's contract, right?"
"No, please!" Qu Miaoyu immediately became anxious. "Alright, alright, I was wrong. I will never go to Pei's father's place to say anything nonsense again."
Xiao Chen is Qu Miaoyu's boyfriend, a male celebrity, and Qu Miaoyu is currently very interested in him.
"Jacqueline messaged me saying there's a party tonight and she wants me to invite you."
Qu Miaoyu lowered her voice and said, "Didn't she have a bit of an unpleasant argument with you before? It seemed like she was planning to apologize to you."
Pei Zhi refused without hesitation, "I don't have time."
Qu Miaoyu advised, "They've already offered to apologize to you, so don't be too rude."
In front of Qu Miaoyu, Pei Zhi opened her phone, which showed a chat window between her and Huo Jiayuan.
"See? Dad is still living in the villa. He sends me messages several times an hour."
Pei Zhi said helplessly, "If I dare to go to the party tonight, he'll probably hang himself at the villa's entrance."
Huo Jiayuan had never spent time alone with Pei's father.
Naturally, I felt completely out of place and didn't know what to say or ask.
Huo Jiayuan didn't dare to speak, afraid that if he said something wrong, Pei's father would scold him again.
Huo Jiayuan didn't dare leave Pei's father alone at home while he went out to play.
Therefore, Huo Jiayuan could only keep sending messages to Pei Zhi, urging her to go home as soon as possible.
Qu Miaoyu glanced at the densely packed messages and snorted, "Men are just so pretentious."
Pei Zhi put away her phone. "Jia Qian, please apologize to me. I'm really busy."
Pei Zhi thought for a moment and then added, "Tell her by the way that those were all minor matters and there's no need to take them to heart."
Qu Miaoyu said with a smile, "Of course it's a small matter for you, but it's a big deal for Jiaxi."
Huo Jiaxi's feelings for Fu Shen are nothing new.
Fu Shen gave Huo Jiaxi the cold shoulder, which made Huo Jiaxi angry for a long time.
Seeing Fu Shen and Pei Zhi chatting and laughing, Huo Jiaxi couldn't stand it and said a few sarcastic things to Pei Zhi in front of her.
Pei Zhi was not one to be trifled with. She didn't say anything on the surface, but she secretly had someone block Huo Jiaxi's project.
Forced to seek help from Pei Zhi herself, Huo Jiaxi's mother, Huo Li.
Huo Li, unaware of the ulterior motives, even sent Pei Zhi many lavish gifts to thank her for her help.
However, everyone here is generous and understands the situation.
No matter how important a person is, nothing is more important than money.
Jiaxi wasn't stupid enough to offend Pei Zhi for the sake of a man.
With money, what kind of man can't you find?
