Chapter 51: Uncontrollable Mint Kiss

Shang Group.

Halfway through the meeting, Gu Yu learned about what happened on Weibo and without delay handed his phone to Shang Yanci.

Shang Yanci took the phone and raised his hand to signal the manager who was speaking to pause the report.

After reading through them one by one, Shang Yanci frowned, announced the adjournment of the meeting, and stood up to leave the conference room.

Gu Yu followed behind him.

Shang Yanci: "All work will be postponed. You stay in the group and I will be back tomorrow."

Gu Yu: “Yes, President.”

The nearest flight to City A is at 11 a.m., so Shang Yanci took a car to the airport.

At this moment, it is still drizzling in City A, but it does not affect the flight of aircraft.

While waiting for the flight, Shang Yanci once again opened the surveillance video at the door of the subsidiary company——

Pei Yuning was wearing a mint blue suit, and the man holding an umbrella for her was wearing a light gray suit.

There were six bodyguards following behind the two men. Suddenly, a middle-aged man rushed over. Two bodyguards quickly raised their hands to stop him. The man holding the umbrella negotiated with the middle-aged man. Pei Yuning had a cold face throughout the whole process and looked very unhappy.

Although the text and video on Weibo can piece together a rough outline of what happened, Shang Yanci is still worried. Only by flying to City A and seeing with his own eyes that she is safe can he feel at ease.

When the plane arrived at City A's airport, the rain had stopped. The sun shone through the light white clouds. Crystal clear raindrops hung on the emerald green branches of the camphor trees, about to fall. There was a faint, moist scent of grass in the air.

Shang Yanci walked out of the airport. Pei Yuning was working in the subsidiary company at that time. So he took a car to the company building and called Pei Yuning.

Pei Yuning answered: "Ayan."

Shang Yanci asked gently, "Is Madam busy now?"

Pei Yuning: "It's fine, what's wrong?"

Shang Yanci: "Can you spare some time to meet with me?"

Pei Yuning was stunned: "You came to City A?"

Shang Yanci: "Yes, downstairs in the company building."

Pei Yuning stood up and walked towards the elevator, asking, "You are so busy at work, what are you doing here?"

Shang Yanci heard the footsteps of her high heels and said gently, "Don't worry, walk slowly. I'm not busy at work, but I wanted to see you, so I came here."

Pei Yuning glanced at the time on his phone. It was half past one. The flight from Beijing North to City A would take two hours, and from the plane to the subsidiary's building, another half an hour.

So he had to rush to the Beijing airport at ten o'clock at the latest. At that time, the public opinion on Weibo about the Pei Group had just begun to ferment.

Pei Yuning walked into the elevator, reached out and pressed the button for the first floor, and said softly: "Did you have lunch on the plane?"

Shang Yanci: "No."

It makes sense. After spending some time with him recently, Pei Yuning discovered that Shang Yanci was actually a very picky person. The food he ate had to be the freshest, most delicate and delicious, otherwise he would just take a quick bite out of courtesy and not touch it again.

Pei Yuning walked out of the company. The sky was clear and there was a rainbow after the rain in the distance. The warm sunlight fell on Shang Yanci in front of him.

She walked towards him quickly, and Shang Yanci also walked towards her at the same time.

Afterwards, Pei Yuning started to jog. Shang Yanci smiled, opened his arms to welcome her, and raised his hands to hold her in his arms.

Shang Yanci bent down slightly, and Pei Yuning's chin just rested on his shoulder. He smelled the familiar scent of perfume on him and held his arms tighter around his waist.

Pei Yuning complained in a coquettish tone: "You are so annoying. You don't work yourself, and you don't let me work either."

Shang Yanci chuckled softly: "Well, Madam is saying 'I missed you so much'."

Pei Yuning: "No!"

"I just wanted to see you. Now that I've seen you, go back to work." Shang Yanci pretended to push her lightly.

Pei Yuning: "You are annoying!"

Shang Yanci smiled lazily: "Well, Madam is right."

Pei Yuning snorted softly, loosened the hand that was around his waist, and took the hand that was hanging by his side, interlocking their fingers: "I'll accompany you back to the hotel to have dinner and rest first, I'll do the work later."

Shang Yanci: "I can go back to the hotel to eat and rest by myself, so as not to interfere with your work."

Pei Yuning raised her eyes to look at him, and said coquettishly: "Don't take advantage of me and act like a spoiled brat."

Shang Yanci had clear and elegant eyes and eyebrows. He bent down and kissed her cheek.

Pei Yuning shyly dodged and said, "This is a public place, please be aware of the impact."

Shang Yanci said seriously: "As a legal couple, we can't help our feelings."

Pei Yuning ignored him, picked up his phone, and asked the hotel to deliver food according to Shang Yanci's taste.

After returning to the hotel, Shang Yanci sat in the restaurant to eat, while Pei Yuning accompanied him and replied to work messages on his mobile phone.

After Qi Yun knew she had left, he sent a long voice message. Pei Yuning wanted to convert it into text, but her fingertips accidentally touched it and the voice message started playing.

Qi Yun: [Where are you? You left the bodyguards' sight alone again. What if the same thing happened this morning happens again? If you get hurt, how can I explain it to your brother?]

After the voice message was finished, the restaurant was silent for a few seconds.

Pei Yuning felt very uncomfortable being treated like a child in front of Shang Yanci.

Shang Yanci put down his chopsticks, picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said lightly: "Is he the man who held an umbrella for you this morning?"

Pei Yuning lowered his eyes, replied to Qi Yun's message, and answered his question with a "hmm".

In Shang Yanci's eyes, at this moment, Pei Yuning was seriously replying to other people's messages, but was responding to him perfunctorily.

He got up and went to the bathroom to rinse his mouth, then put a mint in his mouth. He returned to the restaurant, sat on the recliner, took the phone out of Pei Yuning's hand, pinched her waist, and easily held her in his arms: "You told me last night that everything went smoothly, how come this happened today?"

Pei Yuning: "It was indeed smooth. We successfully reached a consensus with our partners and successfully punished the bad guys."

Shang Yanci raised his hand and stroked her eyebrows: "If there hadn't been a bodyguard stopping me this morning..."

A gentle kiss on his lips interrupted what he was about to say.

Pei Yuning said softly, "Ayan, what you are worried about has not happened and will not happen. Before my brother arranged for Brother Qi Yun and four other bodyguards to arrive in City A, I had two bodyguards with me. They are all top-notch experts. I will never put myself in danger no matter what I do."

Shang Yanci slowly crushed the mint in his mouth, slowly raised his hands to hold Pei Yuning's slender neck, and moved closer to kiss her.
