After saying goodbye to Wang Zhouheng, Mingyao left the company in a good mood.
On Monday, Mingyao discovered that Ni An had not come to work.
Just then, Manager Zhang happened to pass by the front desk, and she deliberately asked, "Manager, has Ni An taken leave again?"
Supervisor Zhang nodded, "She said she wasn't feeling well; she often does this."
In less than two months of working, Ni An has already taken several days off.
Pei Siyu arrived at the company just as the morning workday was ending.
Mingyao was quite surprised, and greeted him with a bright smile: "Good afternoon, Mr. Pei."
Pei Siyu glanced at her sideways and said in a nonchalant tone, "Come out."
Mingyao blinked, looking puzzled.
He didn't offer any further explanation, and simply turned and walked out of the company.
Colleagues passing by watched this scene in surprise, whispering among themselves as they began to speculate about the relationship between Mingyao and Pei Siyu.
Wasn't he always worried that others would find out about their marital relationship?
Why would someone suddenly ask me to go out alone?
Under the gossipy and envious gazes of her colleagues, Mingyao nervously followed Pei Siyu out of the company.
A luxury car was parked prominently at the company entrance.
When the assistant saw the two of them come out, he opened the car door and bowed, gesturing for them to enter.
Mingyao: "???"
Did Pei Siyu get his head caught in a door again?
Not only did they call me out in front of so many colleagues, but they also made me get into the car in front of everyone?
Something unusual must be going on!
Mingyao frowned, looking at Pei Siyu with a face full of questions, "President Pei, what's going on?"
Pei Siyu sat in the back seat and urged in a cold, flat voice, "Get in the car quickly."
Mingyao glanced worriedly at her colleagues who were watching the commotion, her heart pounding so hard it felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.
Is he alright?
Seeing that Mingyao was still standing there motionless, the man's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Mingyao shivered. It felt like a bucket of ice water had been poured over her head, chilling her to the bone.
The assistant whispered, "Miss Su, don't worry, Mr. Pei will take you to discuss business."
Mingyao frowned, her eyes filled with doubt.
Take me to negotiate business?
She was just a receptionist, good for nothing except her face and figure, and couldn't offer Pei Siyu much help in business negotiations.
Mingyao looked at her assistant suspiciously, and for a moment doubted whether she had misheard.
"Su Xueya".
Every word Pei Siyu uttered pierced her ears like ice shards, so Mingyao was on high alert and carefully sat down next to him.
The air was thin inside the cramped carriage.
Mingyao was on tenterhooks, glancing cautiously at Pei Siyu, who sat motionless beside her, her breathing becoming careful.
Every second spent sitting with him felt incredibly long; those short fifteen minutes felt like a month.
After parking the car, Mingyao couldn't wait to open the car door.
She's like a fish out of air, desperately needing fresh air to breathe.
After getting out of the car, Pei Siyu gave Ming Yao a cold look, then strode forward.
Mingyao followed behind obediently, not daring to express any dissatisfaction.
"Welcome, sir. What kind of clothes would you like?"
The waiter's enthusiastic greetings made Mingyao feel a little dazed.
She came to her senses and realized that there were clothes hanging all around her. Why did she come to a clothing store?
“Pick a dress according to her size.”
The waiter smiled and looked Mingyao up and down, then said politely, "Miss, please come with me."
Mingyao frowned and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Pei Siyu picked up a magazine at random and began flipping through it out of sheer boredom.
"Is this dress okay?"
The waiter brought out a bright red three-quarter length dress. The cut was excellent and the design was simple. It was beautiful, but it was too bright.
Mingyao rarely wears such brightly colored clothes, not because she dislikes them, but because they don't fit her innocent and pure image.
Just as she was about to refuse, Pei Siyu's indifferent voice rang out: "Take the red one."
Mingyao: "..."
It turns out his eyes were fixed on it the whole time.
Helpless, Mingyao took the red dress to the fitting room.
The clothes fit her figure perfectly, and the bright red color made her skin look radiant.
Mingyao looked at herself in the mirror, dressed in a red dress, and felt a little uncomfortable.
During the time she played Su Xueya, she forced herself to wear plain and fresh clothes all day long. Such aggressive and bright clothes only existed in her memory.
"President Pei, isn't this dress a bit too bright?"
Mingyao lowered her head, looking shyly at Pei Siyu, her demeanor revealing her restraint.
Pei Siyu glanced at it, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes, "This one will do."
Not only clothes, Pei Siyu also asked the waiter to provide jewelry and shoes.
Within minutes, Mingyao was completely transformed.
Her face was still the same, but she was no longer an innocent, pure young woman; instead, she was a stunningly beautiful woman.
The waiter praised Mingyao highly, saying, "You two are a perfect match."
Mingyao cleared her throat and subconsciously looked at Pei Siyu.
Pei Siyu's face was expressionless. Didn't he express any reaction to the waiter's praise?
After leaving the clothing store, we drove for about ten minutes before stopping at a five-star restaurant.
Inside the elevator, Mingyao took a deep breath, glancing at Pei Siyu's exquisite and aloof profile out of the corner of her eye, and asked, "Mr. Pei, is there anything I need to know about our clients and projects?"
"unnecessary."
Three simple words, devoid of any emotion, as cold as he was.
Mingyao responded with an "oh," wondering what kind of business this was.
Don't tell her any precautions or what projects you're discussing beforehand, and don't try to shirk responsibility if something goes wrong.
Mingyao pouted and muttered to herself.
As soon as the door to the private room was pushed open, a familiar and cheerful voice came from inside, "Miss Su, we meet again."
Mingyao was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sound and saw Zhong Ruyi greeting her with a bright smile.
"Sister Ruyi?"
Her eyes suddenly lit up. "I didn't expect it to be you!"
Sitting next to Zhong Ruyi was a refined-looking middle-aged man with metal-rimmed glasses and a warm smile. "I've heard Madam mention Miss Su before, but seeing her in person is truly an experience!"
Zhong Ruyi warmly pulled Mingyao to sit beside her, praising her highly: "Miss Su is beautiful and kind."
“If it weren’t for Miss Su’s help at the hospital, I probably would have lost my child.”
She looked at Pei Siyu and said, "President Pei, you must treat employees like Miss Su well."
Mingyao almost choked on her own saliva. How did Pei Siyu suddenly get involved?
Mingyao held Zhong Ruyi's hand and smiled, "Sister, President Pei is very good to me. He even bought me clothes and jewelry just to see you."
Zhong Ruyi nodded with satisfaction, "That's right."
"Young people should wear bright and colorful clothes."
She turned her gaze to Pei Siyu's face again, her eyes curving into crescent shapes. "President Pei, Miss Su must be credited for this collaboration."
