Facts have proved that reincarnation is indeed a technical job.
Just when our small company was expanding, something happened at Pei Xiaoxing's home. According to her secretary, she had not come to the company for a day and her cell phone was not turned on.
So please ask me to go to their house for a check.
I first called Pei Xiaoxing, and it was indeed turned off. Her phone is usually turned on 24 hours a day in case there is any emergency that requires her to deal with.
Something might have happened to her.
I hurried to her house. Her parents told me the password to her house early in the morning and told me to come over and play anytime and just treat it like my own home.
But I still didn't unlock the door and go in directly. Knocking on the door when going to someone else's house is basic courtesy.
After knocking on the door, I saw their nanny.
"Miss Xinyan, you are here. The master and his wife are discussing something with Xiaoxing in the study."
Discussing things? Is it necessary to turn off the phone when discussing things?
The nanny led me in, and I didn't ask her to call the owner of the house to come down. As long as I was sure that Pei Xiaoxing was not in danger, I would not be in a hurry.
"Auntie, please pour me a glass of water. I'll just wait for them in the living room."
When I asked the nanny to pour me a glass of water, she would of course not just pour me water, but at least the best tea that they serve to guests.
Pei Xiaoxing and I do have a good relationship, and we also opened a company together. However, in terms of family conditions, her family is far inferior to ours. Even if her parents personally receive us, they will use the highest etiquette and the best attitude.
After drinking three cups of tea and going to the toilet twice, the family came out after finishing their chat.
"From today on, don't go to your small company. I'll say hello to Xingxing. When you have time, contact your fiancé and try to cultivate some feelings. Xiaoxing, Dad doesn't want you to marry someone without feelings. You have to understand Dad's difficulties."
Pei Xiaoxing walked behind them without saying a word.
I picked up the cup of water and moistened my throat. "No matter how unwilling you are, you still have to do this, right? Don't say those words of reluctance anymore. Pei Xiaoxing doesn't like to hear them either."
Hearing my voice, the whole family looked over.
Pei Xiaoxing's father was particularly surprised. "Xingxing is here. Why didn't you ask the servants to call her? How long have you been sitting here? Let's have dinner together tonight."
"I haven't been here long. If your family has something to talk about, I won't interrupt you rashly. But have you made up your mind, aunt and uncle? Are you sure you want Pei Xiaoxing to go to the marriage?"
Pei Xiaoxing's father looked embarrassed and said with difficulty: "Xingxing, it's also your uncle's fault for poor management. If I had listened to your father and not invested in that project, it would have been better. I was also fooled by the villain. Now the funding gap is really too big. I can't make up for it by myself."
Pei Xiaoxing's mother, who was standing next to her, hadn't said anything the whole time. But when she heard what her father said, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"You insisted on doing something that Yuanzheng said you couldn't do. Now you're fine, aren't you? You had to sell your daughter after it became like this? It's not like we haven't been poor before. Why can't we start from scratch and start over?"
Her father frowned and scolded, "What do you know? This is not a matter of starting over again. As long as we inject capital, our company can immediately make a comeback. You know, if we start over again, we may never reach such a height in our lifetime."
As if realizing that his tone was a bit harsh, he sighed and continued, "The other party has proposed to us many times. At that time, we wanted to let the two children have some contact for Xiaoxing's happiness. Now our family has encountered problems and there is a big hole to fill. The other party just thinks that the status of in-laws is more stable. Why would he help us for no reason?"
"Okay, Mom, stop talking. I'll just get married." Pei Xiaoxing said to her mother helplessly, then turned to her father, "Fortunately, I never took what you said seriously before, otherwise there would really be a fuss."
She smiled bitterly and looked at me with an apologetic look in her eyes.
What is there to be sorry about? She just chose her own life.
But I was still young, and I felt a little uncomfortable, so I asked sarcastically, "I wonder how much money your uncle sold your silly daughter for?"
He looked a little embarrassed.
Even Pei Xiaoxiu looked puzzled.
No, it’s all going to be sold, and I don’t even know how much it will be sold for.
"Oh, don't ask anymore. Anyway, this hole is not something our family can fill right now. Xingxing, don't go looking for your parents. None of us has the face to talk about this kind of thing."
Pei Xiaoxing's mother suddenly collapsed. "You don't have the face to ask for help, and you don't let Xingxing go. I have the face to go. Xingxing's father is my cousin after all. He will help out for the sake of the group. If you are determined to sell your daughter for this little face, we will divorce!"
When the word "divorce" was shouted out, Pei Xiaoxing's father was a little panicked. It was impossible to say that he had never been walking around under the name of Pei Yuanzheng in these years.
As soon as he divorced his wife, he would have no connection with them at all, let alone a good relationship like the one they have now.
He had no choice but to say a number, "90 million!"
After saying that, he turned his head away. Ninety million was really a huge sum of money at that time. He didn't know how such a big gap appeared.
I:……
Pei Xiaoxing: ...
