What did he just say?
At this moment, Mingyao's mind went blank.
Her heart was pounding, and she kept replaying Pei Siyu's words in her mind.
She was certain she hadn't misheard.
It was indeed the love Pei Siyu spoke of.
Could it be that Pei Siyu has fallen completely in love with her?
Happiness came too suddenly; Mingyao felt like she was dreaming.
You seem very happy.
Mingyao looked at Pei Siyu and found that he was staring straight at her.
She immediately composed herself and said shyly, "I'm overjoyed that President Pei says he loves me."
Pei Siyu's lips curled into a wicked smile, and his eyes held a hint of amusement.
He leaned close to Mingyao's ear, lowered his voice, and said in a tone only the two of them could hear, "Why don't we have a child?"
child?
Mingyao's heart leaped into her throat, and she forced a laugh, saying, "President Pei, you're currently in the prime of your career, having a child isn't really... appropriate."
Once she becomes pregnant and gives birth, she will have to switch back with Su Xueya.
All her efforts will be in vain!
Under no circumstances should I get pregnant!
Mingyao secretly made up her mind.
Pei Siyu frowned slightly, exuding a cold aura.
"Didn't you say you loved me? Why are you unwilling to have my child?"
Mingyao: "..."
Why are you starting to act unreasonably?
"President Pei, I'm saying this for your own good."
She held Pei Siyu's hand tightly and looked at him with a sincere expression.
"Haichang Branch is in a period of rapid development."
"I cannot let my own selfish desires hinder your career, Mr. Pei."
She blinked innocently, looking at Pei Siyu with teary eyes, "President Pei, please believe me."
Pei Siyu studied her face with great interest and asked, "Really?"
She nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Really."
Pei Siyu stared at her for a long time, then casually hummed in agreement.
Just when Mingyao thought she had gotten away with it, a warm breath brushed against her neck.
Mingyao shivered, turned her head, and found Pei Siyu leaning close to her ear again.
"Since you love me so much, let's consider having a child after we finish our work these next few days."
Mingyao: "..."
Her face flushed red; this was too much.
"President Pei, let's get back to work first."
"There's no rush when it comes to the children."
She stammered out some advantages of not having children, completely unaware of Pei Siyu's ambiguous smile.
Mingyao spoke at length with great earnestness, and Pei Siyu nodded thoughtfully, "You're right."
"But I like children, and I have money, so none of that matters."
Hey, you might not care, but I do!
Mingyao was furious, but she had to suppress her anger and try her best to act as if nothing had changed.
They've gone mad, they've really gone mad!
She suddenly didn't want to conquer the game so quickly anymore.
No, she can't give up; she has to think of another way!
Mingyao began racking her brains for a solution, while Pei Siyu watched her intently, his smile growing wider.
It's nice to tease a cat occasionally and watch it get all puffed up.
Pei Family Mansion.
Mingyao was exhausted after thinking all the way.
She never figured out why Pei Siyu didn't like children.
How about inviting Wang Xingchen over to our house next time?
Mingyao walked into the room while thinking.
"stop."
Mingyao turned around and saw Pei Siyu already standing behind her with a medicine box.
Before Mingyao could react, Pei Siyu pressed Mingyao's shoulders and forced her onto the sofa.
Mingyao sat there blankly, watching Pei Siyu take out cotton swabs, disinfectant, and band-aids from the medicine box.
He gently began to disinfect Mingyao's forehead.
Mingyao stared blankly at Pei Siyu. For a moment, she forgot to think and stared straight at Pei Siyu.
It was as if Pei Siyu was the only person left in the world, and even her heart stopped beating at that moment.
"alright."
He packed up his medical kit. "Go back and rest."
Mingyao remained sitting there blankly, unsure of how to react.
"Aren't you tired?" Pei Siyu crouched down to meet her gaze. "Want me to carry you upstairs?"
Mingyao was on high alert. She stood up abruptly and strode upstairs.
The next day, Mingyao floated down from upstairs in a daze.
Wu Ma was startled when she saw Mingyao's ashen face.
"Miss Su, did you not sleep well last night?"
Is there even a question?
Mingyao's mind was filled with Pei Siyu yesterday, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.
Pei Siyu was acting very strangely yesterday.
Whether in her past life or this life, Mingyao's stereotype of Pei Siyu is that he is cold.
And yesterday...
Mingyao felt that Pei Siyu was flirting with her.
When she arrived at the restaurant, she found an empty seat and only one person's tableware, and a sense of disappointment inexplicably arose in her heart.
"Is President Pei not here?"
He left before dawn.
"There's an event in Haidu City that requires him to attend a meeting."
Mingyao said "oh" and took a sip of congee. Wu Ma then said, "President Pei asked me to specifically tell Miss this."
Mingyao almost choked on the porridge she had just drunk.
Is this true?
Aunt Wu said with a smile, "Aside from being a bit cold, President Pei is actually very meticulous."
Mingyao nodded in a daze, feeling as if she were dreaming.
However... she was quite happy inside.
Now that her identity has been exposed, Mingyao no longer needs to hide it from her colleagues.
Mingyao went directly to the company from the Pei family mansion.
