Chapter 792: CEO Pei was Stumped!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Ji did not expect the conversation to change so suddenly when they were at the most exciting part.
She didn’t know where Prince Huai started listening, but he must have heard something. She didn’t hide anything and continued.
Prince Huai noticed that the letter in his hidden pocket was already in Su Ji’s hand. He pressed his slender fingers between his eyebrows. Ten seconds later, he readjusted his state of mind.
Su Ji followed his gaze and noticed the letter in her hand. She smiled politely and awkwardly, folded it a few more times, and stuffed it back into Prince Huai’s pocket.
“…” Prince Huai was silent for a while. ‘Your Highness, please continue.”
Beside them, Moon did not see any abnormal behavior. In Yue’s eyes Pei Huai and Prince Huai were the same person. However, its attitude towards Su Ji and the original Su Ji was completely different.
On the plains, she spoke while he listened.
He always walked half a step behind her, walking at the same pace as her. This position was easy for him to see her and observe her every move. If he saw any obstacles, he could reach out to support her immediately.
And she couldn’t see him. She couldn’t see the deep and unspeakable emotions in his eyes through the mask…
As Su Ji explained, Prince Huai gradually understood the world he had never been to.
Before he could ask further. his exDression turned cold.
This was because he noticed that when Su Ji mentioned people or things from that era, the corners of her eyes would curl up slightly, forming an arc parallel to the corners of her lips.
She was happier than she was in the palace and court.
“So,” Prince Huai stopped and lowered his eyes, his expression hidden in the dark. “Your Highness wants to go back?”
Su Ji turned to look at him. He had stopped, but she did not.
She looked at him and continued walking forward.
When he was a little far away from her, her cold voice echoed on the grassland.
“I can let bygones be bygones for how you brought me back previously, but if you dare to cause trouble when I’m going back this time, I’ll really be angry.. She said that she would be really angry, but the corners of her lips were curled up.
She couldn’t even frown when she said those heartless words.
Prince Huai’s figure became smaller and smaller in Su Ji’s sight. He did not reply or respond.
“Did you hear that?” Su Ji smiled and called out to him, “my bestie?”
In her line of sight, Prince Huai seemed to have paused for a moment.
Su Ji laughed again, as if her evil plan had succeeded. She whistled as well. Yue, who had been eating green grass and catching butterflies a moment ago, immediately rushed toward her as fast as lightning after receiving the order.
That was Yue’s true strength.
She quickly approached its master. Su Ji turned sideways and mounted the horse. In a crisp and forceful posture, she rode away under Prince Huai’s gaze…
That evening, Pei Huai, who had just finished his hypnosis treatment, drove to the Xu family’s house.
Xu Mingzhi was not there, but the original owner was.
He parked the car in front of the Xu family’s house but did not get out of the car. He sent a message to the original owner to get out.
He sat in the driver’s seat, and the window of the driver’s seat was lowered to the lowest point.
When the original owner looked through the window, he was resting with his eyes closed.
“What’s the matter that would trouble CEO Pei to come?”
Pei Huai slowly opened his eyes after hearing the strange voice. He had a temper, but he endured it.
First, he told her what Su Ji had said.
When the original owner heard the first sentence, she asked with a suspicious look, “why can your soul transmigrate? Is this for real? You can talk to the Consort Dowager? When I was in the Great Shang, I had never encountered such a situation!”
It was done.
Pei Huai began to answer her questions and provide evidence.
The original owner looked at him suspiciously. “Alright then. Even if what you said is true, what exactly does she want to tell me?”
When the original owner heard that Musician Xiao liked her, her first reaction was not surprise or happiness, but shame and anger.
“How did Consort Dowager know that I was interested in Musician Xiao…” In the original owner’s eyes, it was simply a fantasy that Xiao Musician liked her. It was even more ridiculous to say that Xiao Musician had hidden her embroidery as a pendant!
“You guys are really too much to use other people’s feelings like this!!”
Everything was exactly as he had expected. The original owner, who had a strong sense of inferiority, treated this as a conspiracy and a humiliation to her. “So what if I showed off the morning glory? It must have been accidentally dropped in the bedroom and picked up by the Consort Dowager. What a blatant lie!”
Pei Huai’s forehead throbbed violently as he counted to three in his heart.
She asked him to care a little for her.
He repeated this three times.
Su Ji’s return was dependent on this.
Pei Huai had never been so sad in his life. He gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter. Only then did he convince himself to smile.
However, in the eyes of others, this smile did not have the slightest effect of closing the distance. Instead, it was filled with a sense of threat and oppression.
The original owner realized that she had spoken a little too rashly just now. She didn’t know if he was angry or not. This person was very powerful. Until now, she still didn’t know what businesses the Pei family owned, and she knew that she shouldn’t offend him.
However, the next second, Pei Huai said, “have you eaten dinner? Are you hungry?
There was no emotion at all.
CEO Pei, who had always been stern with her and always looked at her with disgust…took the initiative to ask if she was hungry?
The original owner nodded and then shook her head. For a moment, she did not know how to answer.
With a click, Pei Huai unlocked the back door of the car, not the front passenger seat.
“What does this mean?” The original owner took a step back warily and smiled faintly. “I haven’t eaten dinner. You want to take me out for dinner?”
Pei Huai looked at her with a smile and tried his best to say, “there are free meals in the Pei Corporation’s cafeteria. I can drive you to…the bus stop outside the neighborhood. Take bus No. 818 and take bus No. 23. It will take you directly…’
She couldn’t believe her ears!
She thought that he wanted to reconcile, but she didn’t expect it to be a new method of humiliation!
She was so angry that she was about to vomit blood!
“Am I someone who needs charity? Can’t I even afford my own meals?” After throwing a series of questions, the original owner turned around and ran back to the room.
When he heard the door slam shut, he cursed in his heart..
