Chapter 86
"Then I'll go over now."
After hanging up the phone, Pei Yanzhou turned to Cheng Xi next to him, with a faint apology flashing in his eyes, "I'm sorry, the company has something to do temporarily, you..."
"Oh, it's okay. I'll drive there later." Cheng Xi originally wanted to say goodbye to him at the door, so she didn't pay much attention. "Go and do your work."
"Yeah." Pei Yanzhou turned around and got into the car on the roadside.
The car gradually went away. Through the rearview mirror, he saw that after driving a distance, Cheng Xi was still standing in the dimly lit night, watching his car leave from a distance.
She...must be very disappointed.
That girl usually values money so much that she spent several thousand to book a hotel room tonight, but someone suddenly left her and let her go.
Pei Yanzhou also felt a little regretful. He originally thought that the needs could be solved in normal ways.
did not expect.......
Pei Yanzhou checked the time. It was only eight o'clock. If we finish the conversation early, we might still be able to get there in time.
Thinking about it, the accelerator under my feet became heavier.
...
Half an hour later, Cheng Xi completed the registration procedures and moved into the couple's luxury suite.
The restaurant is really awesome. The floor-to-ceiling windows here face the most lively pedestrian street in Sioux City.
Cheng Xi called Ling Zheng and asked her where she was. Ling Zheng said she had to go back to the house she rented temporarily to pack some things and would come later.
While Ling Zheng didn't come, Cheng Xi simply took a comfortable bath, put on the clean nightgown prepared by the hotel, turned on the projector, selected a Hollywood movie, and leaned comfortably on the chaise longue. Start watching.
After watching it for a while, feeling a little bored, Cheng Xi's eyes fell on the red wine on the bar.
She rarely drinks much, but this is free red wine. I just checked online and it costs hundreds of bottles. It seems a waste not to drink it.
After struggling for two minutes, Cheng Xi opened the red wine and poured it into the goblet.
The exquisite goblet filled with dark red night sky, coupled with the giant-screen movie and the beautiful night outside, made Cheng Xi feel that this night was really comfortable.
She couldn't help but take a selfie and send it to Ling Zheng: [Come quickly, I'm waiting for you. 】
Ling Zheng: [It will take more than an hour for me to get to you, don't get yourself drunk. '】
[No, I will just drink a little. 】
[Would you like to bring you some midnight snacks? 】
[If you want to make skewers, buy me some meat skewers and milk tea. 】
Putting down her phone, Cheng Xi began to enjoy the movie seriously. The movie was a bit brain-burning. While watching, Cheng Xi drank unconsciously from the wine glass. She didn't even realize that half of the bottle of wine was empty.
...
On the other side, in the teahouse.
Pei Yanzhou quickly signed a contract with Mr. Zhou while looking at the time.
"Why do I feel that Mr. Pei, you are in a hurry than me?" Mr. Zhou joked, "Maybe I changed the time temporarily and delayed Mr. Pei's date with his girlfriend."
As soon as the words came out, Mr. Zhou hit his head, "Look, I misremembered. I heard that Mr. Pei seemed to have gotten married some time ago, right?"
Before, Pei Yanzhou didn't want to answer this question at all, but today he still said "hmm" very lightly.
Yang Kai on the side looked at him twice in surprise.
Others don't know, but he, the assistant, knows best how much Mr. Pei dislikes seeing his wife.
Mr. Zhou laughed and said, "I hope to hear other good news from Mr. Pei next year. Hey, I have to leave in a hurry. If I don't leave, my child will probably be born."
After personally escorting Mr. Zhou to the car, Yang Kai asked, "Mr. Pei, are you going to drive home by yourself, or should I take you back?"
"I'll go by myself."
Pei Yanzhou got into the car and when he started it, he looked at the time, which was ten o'clock in the evening.
