Chapter 49 Don't be so cute. I miss you so much.
Pei Yuning sat on the sofa: "No, but the general manager of the subsidiary forced the female employees to drink, I can't stand it."
"What era is this? Is their drinking culture still so disgusting and corrupt? And judging from the reactions of the people at the table, they seem to have become accustomed to it. This is not a good sign. There will always be people who refuse to go along with the crowd. If the incident gets out into the open someday, the Pei Group will be the one at the center of the storm. We have to eradicate those cancers one by one as soon as possible." Pei Yuning analyzed.
Pei Yunzhi: "Well, I will have someone investigate this matter carefully. When you go out, stay within the sight of your bodyguards and don't be annoyed by them following you."
Pei Yuning: "I understand, brother."
Pei Yunzhi: "It's been a busy day, go to bed early tonight."
Pei Yuning: "Okay, don't work too late."
Pei Yunzhi: "Well, I'm hanging up."
Pei Yuning hung up the phone, sat on the sofa for a while, called the hotel internal line, and asked for vanilla milk to be delivered in an hour.
Picking up her bathrobe, Pei Yuning walked into the bathroom.
After coming out, Pei Yuning drank the vanilla milk on the table and went into the bathroom again to prepare skin care.
After applying the cleansing mask, Pei Yuning played with her phone for a while and made a video call to Shang Yanci.
The other side picked up the call very quickly.
Shang Yanci heard the voice before he saw the person: "Madam, wait a moment."
There was first a mist in the camera, then his palm and the marble wall in the bathroom. He must have put the phone into a wall-mounted transparent box.
Afterwards, Shang Yanci appeared in front of the camera, with his wet black hair pulled back, revealing his superior brow bones, and his long and thick eyelashes wet with water vapor, drooping lazily, giving him a kind of decadent handsomeness.
The slender white neck, the kiss mark on the Adam's apple was washed by the hot water, making it more vivid, the clavicle line was sharp and distinct, and only the upper half of the pink and white chest muscles were exposed because the height of the phone was limited.
Although Shang Yanci's body was covered with water from the showerhead, he gave people the illusion that he was sweating.
Pei Yuning was stunned for a few seconds, his mouth dry, and he said slowly: "I'll call you back later."
He usually never takes his cell phone when he goes into the bathroom, but he did this tonight. Is he waiting for her news?
Shang Yanci stared at her, chuckled softly, and asked, "Is there anything on my body that Madam cannot see?"
Then you should hold your phone down a little bit! Pei Yuning muttered quietly in his heart.
Pei Yuning: "Then don't hang up, you can wash yourself, I'm also taking care of my skin here."
Shang Yanci looked at Pei Yuning who seemed very busy but didn't know what she was busy with. She couldn't help but smile: "Madam, don't be so cute."
Pei Yuning's ears turned red: "Hurry up and wash!"
Shang Yanci washed slowly and leisurely: "Did everything go well today?"
Pei Yuning: "It went quite smoothly. The partner turned out to be my senior in college. What a coincidence."
Shang Yanci said calmly: "In this case, it seems that Shang Dan is very happy."
Pei Yuning: "It's OK, not very familiar."
Shang Yanci: "What is your standard for 'unfamiliarity'?"
Pei Yuning thought for a while and answered him: "We don't chat often, we haven't made video calls, and we haven't eaten together. In short, those who don't have a personal relationship are not familiar with each other."
Shang Yanci felt relieved after hearing this. He took a towel and wiped his body while asking her, "Did you drink the vanilla milk?"
Pei Yuning: "Drank it."
"Good boy." Shang Yanci put on his bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom with his cell phone.
Pei Yuning lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling. Why did he say these two words every time? Did he know clearly in his heart that she liked being flattered like this?
Shang Yanci lay down on the bed. The bedroom seemed very empty, and it was clear that nothing was missing.
On the bedside table stood a vintage bell-shaped table lamp that Pei Yuning had just bought, and a half-read book was clipped with an exquisite bookmark.
On the sofa was her own light blue blanket dotted with fluffy white clouds, and on the table were five cute and funny water cups.
She actually doesn't like drinking water, but in order to look beautiful, she always persuades herself to drink water.
A fresh water cup is one of her important secrets to coax herself to drink water. The cabinet against the wall is filled with her water cups, a dazzling array of them.
Shang Yanci looked at Pei Yuning who was taking care of her skin on the screen and said softly, "Madam, I miss you so much."
Pei Yuning paused as she applied the eye cream. Her heart ached at his blunt words: "I miss you, too."
Shang Yanci: "I know."
Pei Yuning pursed her lips and smiled, "It's very quick. Today is over. I will try to get back to Beijing as soon as possible."
Shang Yanci: "Okay, I'll wait for you at home."
Pei Yuning: “Yeah.”
After finishing the skin care, Pei Yuning lay down on the bed. She felt a familiar touch and asked, "Ayan, did you change the hotel mattress?"
Shang Yanci: "Well, I hope you can sleep more comfortably."
Pei Yuning smiled with a smile on her face: "I will sleep soundly tonight."
Shang Yanci looked at her with burning eyes: "Can you sleep well without me?"
Pei Yuning: "...I mean, compared to previous business trips, I will sleep well tonight because of the vanilla milk and your new mattress."
Shang Yanci lowered his eyes and whispered, "Without Madam here, I will have sleepless nights."
Pei Yuning: "How about you go downstairs and make a cup of vanilla milk?"
Shang Yanci: "It is of no use to me."
Pei Yuning thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll find some philosophy books and read them to lull you to sleep."
"Will you coax me to sleep?" Shang Yanci chuckled softly, his tone tender, "Thank you for your kindness, madam, but it's not necessary. Studying is tiring."
Pei Yuning said worriedly: "But what if you can't sleep? You still have to work tomorrow."
Shang Yanci: "How much battery is left in your phone?"
Pei Yuning took a look and said, "98%. I charged it while taking a shower."
Shang Yanci: "Then let's not disconnect the video tonight, okay?"
"Okay." Pei Yuning sat up from the bed and took out the phone holder from the suitcase. "Ayan, there is a phone holder on the top shelf of my bedside table. You can use that to hold it up later."
Shang Yanci: "Okay."
Pei Yuning adjusted the height of the stand, put it on the bedside table, and lay on his side. His eyes were attracted by the bright red kiss mark on Shang Yanci's Adam's apple: "A Yan, did you wear a turtleneck when you went to the company today?"
Shang Yanci: "Why do you have to wear a turtleneck?"
Pei Yuning was stunned: "Didn't you cover the kiss mark on your Adam's apple?"
Shang Yanci chuckled lazily, "Didn't you say you wanted to leave a mark on me, to remind me all the time that I'm a married man, and most importantly, to remind others to stop coveting me? If I cover it up, wouldn't it be a betrayal of Madam's kindness? I'm not an ignorant man."
Pei Yuning: "...You are so sensible."
Shang Yanci: "Thank you for the compliment."
After chatting for a while, Shang Yanci noticed the sleepiness on Pei Yuning's face, so he got up, took out the stand on the bedside table, turned off the notification sound, put the phone away, and lay on his side: "I'm asleep."
Pei Yuning blinked: "Are you sleepy?"
Shang Yanci: "Well, I'm sleepy."
Pei Yuning: "That's good. Good night, Ah Yan."
Shang Yanci: "Good night, Madam."
Pei Yuning slowly closed his eyes, his breathing became steady, and he fell asleep.
Shang Yanci looked at her on the screen, reached out and touched her lightly, disliking the feeling of distance.
A WeChat message appears in the notification bar, and Shang Yanci scrolls down to view it.
Yi Hua: [Shang Heng agreed to go to Hong Kong City.]
Shang Yanci opened the ticket purchasing software and bought a ticket to City A tomorrow night.
Go see the baby you want to see.
