Chapter 654 My good-for-nothing husband with only a junior high school diploma (23)
In this world, many people have a bad habit called "being a bully in their own backyard." That is, they can be polite and courteous to outsiders, but the closer they are to someone, the more they will vent their temper without restraint.
But Pei Yan is just the opposite. In front of Bai Yao, he is just a harmless little white rabbit.
Bai Yao doesn't need to put on a ferocious look. Just a glance at him and he will immediately admit his fault and beg for mercy because of his cowardice.
Bai Yao looked at him begging for mercy without any emotion, "Do you know where you went wrong?"
He nodded pitifully, "I shouldn't have made myself so dirty, I shouldn't have made you worry."
"That's all?"
"And I shouldn't have lied to you, I... I... I... was in the kitchen..." He stammered, struggling to utter a complete sentence. He knew he couldn't lie, but he didn't dare to tell the truth and make her hate him.
So, his current entanglement and pain only became a weapon to torture himself.
Bai Yao said: "I know."
Pei Yan shuddered, "You... you know everything..."
He only dared to grab the corner of her skirt, his whole body was shaking slightly, and he had difficulty breathing, like a fish that could drown on the land at any time.
Bai Yao said: "You came to the kitchen to eat secretly early in the morning, right?"
Pei Yan was stunned.
She bent down and grabbed the flesh on his face with both hands, "Every time I asked you to eat, you didn't eat properly, and you hid to eat snacks every day. Now you are hungry and want to eat something, so you sneaked to the kitchen."
Pei Yan looked at Bai Yao blankly. He was not smart to begin with, and now he is even more stupid.
Bai Yao laughed, "Let's go, let's go have breakfast together."
Pei Yan's eyes flashed, and he was pulled up by Bai Yao. His brain had not reacted yet, and he just followed Bai Yao blankly.
In the restaurant, almost everyone in the hotel came here to eat.
Bai Yao asked Pei Yan to sit down first. She went to bring breakfast over. Bai Yao was not hungry, so she put a bowl of mung bean porridge with sugar in front of him.
Pei Yan lowered his head and drank the soup obediently with a spoon.
Bai Yao stretched out her hand and cleaned up the "flowers" and "grass" on his body. She took out a wet tissue and wiped the mud off his face.
Pei Yan felt a little itchy and shrank his neck. Bai Yao straightened his face with one hand. He looked at her eagerly and dared not move.
Mu An didn't know what was going on. He would always involuntarily look at Bai Yao, and then his heart would beat very fast.
He couldn't tell whether it was envy or jealousy. He stared at the interaction between Bai Yao and Pei Yan, and there was always an itchy feeling in his heart. If the person sitting next to Bai Yao was himself...
The person next to him suddenly stood up.
Mu An whispered: "Mu Ping?"
But Mu Ping ignored him.
Walking straight to the table opposite, Mu Ping smiled politely: "Manager Bai, another guest checked out this morning."
Bai Yao glanced at the people present and said: "Is it that director?"
Mu Ping nodded, "Yes, the Internet celebrity named Tu Doujun left because he received a business order and had to go to work, and this director named Yan Xi checked out without leaving a reason."
Standing on the position of a hotel employee with a strong sense of responsibility, Mu Ping was worried, "Is it because we did something wrong that made Mr. Yan dissatisfied and chose to check out?"
Pei Yan stared at Mu Ping all the time, and the fierce light in his dark eyes was revealed.
Mu Ping seemed not to feel it, and his gentle expression on his face did not change. He was mature and stable, and it was easy to give people a good impression.
Bai Yao said: "I remember I said that if a guest checks out early, we have to ask them the reason for checking out."
"I'm sorry, Manager Bai, I was negligent in my work." Mu Ping admitted his mistakes with a good attitude and was very self-blaming. His work has always been perfect, and even if there was a small problem this time, people would not be able to blame him.
Bai Yao took out a tissue and wiped his hands, saying, "Forget it, it's not a big deal. We'll have a short meeting later to summarize the possible reasons why Yanxi checked out."
Mu Ping smiled, "Okay, I'll go to the conference room to get ready now."
Before leaving, he glanced at Pei Yan vaguely, and Pei Yan grabbed Bai Yao's hand, "Yaoyao, I'm going too."
Bai Yao said in a good temper, "I'm going to work, you wait for me outside, I'll come out to find you when I'm done."
Pei Yan didn't say anything, lowered his head and peeled eggs for Bai Yao.
Suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind in the restaurant, and the white curtains were blown like a group of demons dancing, and the temperature dropped a lot.
Student Yu Mengya wrapped herself tightly, "Why is it so cold all of a sudden?"
Writer Gu Qiyue said: "The weather should change."
Reporter Fang Lin said: "The weather forecast didn't say it would rain today."
The retired policeman glanced at Pei Yan, took the cup of water from private doctor Wu Liang, and drank calmly.
Mu Ping walked back, and on the way, Chef Zhou gave him a thumbs up, "You are really awesome."
Aunt Wu was so anxious that she was about to cry, "Xiao Yan is a good boy, Xiao Ping is also a good boy, what if they have a conflict?"
She said this as if these two young men were her children, and she, as an "old mother", would not bear to see any of her children get hurt.
Compared to her, Chef Zhou was like an old father who wanted to train his children. “What do you know? Only through competition can there be growth. A daughter is sought after by hundreds of families. Manager Bai is so outstanding, of course she is qualified to choose the best man. Pei Yan should compete with Mu Ping openly. If I were a few years younger, I would compete with these two brats!”
“What you said, if I were a man, wouldn’t I have to compete with you too?” Aunt Wu looked at Mu An again, she covered her heart and was about to cry, “You even missed the child Xiao An!”
It was said to be a short meeting, but because Mu Ping was eager to learn, he politely asked Bai Yao several questions. Infected by his studious spirit, Mu An also pestered Bai Yao with questions.
Bai Yao looked at the time on his watch several times, of course he was anxious for the meeting to end quickly.
Mu Ping said embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, Manager Bai, I don't have a good family background, I haven't been to a good school, and I haven't been to a big city to see the world. I have so many questions, I must make you feel very annoyed."
Mu An's eyes were watery, "Mu Ping and I don't have a father and a mother. When we were young, we had a lot of questions to ask, but we didn't know who to ask, so we talked a lot. I'm sorry, Manager Bai, we have caused you trouble."
