One intoxicating delight, Pei Shao lures away Xiao Man's wife sodu
"No, it's not fun to eat alone, I'll wait for you. Work is never done, but after work, you must come back on time to have dinner with me, or I'll starve to death. See how you can explain this to my parents."
He stared at her speechlessly, and she suddenly burst out laughing. "Can't take it from me, huh? Hehe, I'm doing this for your own good! Just like my dad, working day and night without rest. My mom used to use this trick on him - if he didn't come home, she wouldn't eat, so he was too afraid not to come home on time."
Pei Jun helplessly shook his head. The servant brought up the hot dishes again and urged, "Hurry up and eat."
Yang Dan was eating her meal with relish, although the reheated dishes didn't have their original flavor anymore. However, this didn't affect her good mood. Seeing him not moving his chopsticks, she asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
"I've eaten." He said lightly, leaning back in his chair with a hint of fatigue that he couldn't quite conceal. In fact, he had barely touched the takeout his secretary had ordered for him that night, having only taken a few bites. He was used to his own home-cooked meals and found it hard to appreciate the dishes made with MSG from outside.
"Brother Pei, I haven't had a good time in City A yet. Will you take me out to play tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?" Yang Dan smiled sweetly.
He nodded, "Where do you want to go? I'll get Fu Yan to send you there."
Her face stiffened, "Brother Pei, I want you to accompany me."
"I don't have time, I'll let Pei Yan take you there."
She saw the fatigue between his eyebrows and didn't dare say anything more, so she pouted her lips, lowered her head, and continued eating.
"Brother Pei, I heard from Auntie that your cooking skills are very good. How about you cook for me to try sometime?"
"The chefs in the house are all top-grade chefs invited by big hotels, you can ask them to make whatever you want." He pinched his brow, seeing that she had already put down her chopsticks and got up saying, "Full? Then I'll go first, sleep early tonight."
Yang Dan opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but looking at his strong and straight back, she swallowed her words again. He must be too tired.
The next day, Fu Yan took Yang Dan to stroll around the streets of A City. They first strolled through the city center and by almost noon, she insisted on going to Junteng. Fu Yan just had to take her back, so they ordered takeout from a restaurant downstairs in the Junteng building. After the previous day's events, almost everyone in the company already knew about this unmarried wife, so when people saw Yang Dan, they all smiled respectfully. At the same time, many people were questioning Ye Anning's identity.
"Surprise!" Yang Dan didn't knock on the door, she just pulled it open and jumped in, exclaiming with a face full of smiles. However, Fu Yan behind her was scared to death, covered in cold sweat. The CEO hated people who entered his office without knocking more than anything.
Bai Jun's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but seeing Yang Dan's smiling face, he didn't say anything and asked lightly, "What brings you to the company? How was your play?"
"Great, Wei Yan is really a good driver, Pei brother you should give him a raise, hehe, look, we even bought lunch for you, thoughtful right?" Yang Dan asked happily with the lunch in her hand.
Bai Jun but smiled and didn't speak, softly asking, "Have you eaten? Why did you only buy one serving?"
Yang Dan patted her belly, her face scrunched up, "Can't eat anymore, from this morning till just now."
Upon hearing this, Pei Wen couldn't help but burst out laughing. What she said was the truth - she almost ate whatever she saw, and her mouth hadn't stopped moving all morning. Now, it was only natural that she couldn't eat anymore.
"Brother Pei, it's almost noon, take a break and have lunch first, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
Pei Jun nodded, just about to get up when the phone rang. It was an international hotline, and he immediately sat back down, conversing fluently in English with the other party. His cold face occasionally curled into a smile at the corners of his mouth as he employed a distant yet intimate, relaxed yet tense negotiating style that led the other party into the trap he had set without realizing it. This kind of strategic brilliance left people in awe.
Yang Dan sat quietly on the sofa, looking at the man's cold face in front of her, with a hint of infatuation flashing in her eyes.
Bae Jun hung up the phone after talking for almost half an hour, but he became busy again. He had just made a deal and was waiting for an urgent fax.
Yang Dan glanced at the takeout on the table, stood up obediently, and said softly, "Brother Pei, you're busy, I'll leave first. There are still many places I haven't been to yet. You have to remember to eat."
"Good." Pei Jun nodded and winked at Fu Yan, indicating that he must take good care of Yang Dan. Fu Yan acknowledged the order and took Yang Dan out, but unexpectedly ran into Ye Anning who was walking in the opposite direction in the lobby downstairs.
Ye Anning was in a good mood today. After the morning classes, she borrowed a classroom from the cooking class teacher and bought some ingredients nearby to make her signature Kung Pao chicken and spicy stir-fried potato shreds. She also bought rice from the cafeteria, with a heavy lunch box in hand. When she saw Fu Yan, she smiled and greeted him with a curved eyebrow.
Yang Dan was originally telling him a joke, but when he saw the smile on Fu Yan's face freeze, he looked at Ye Anning and saw a flash of panic on her face, yet she still bowed her head and called out, "Miss Ye."
Ye Anning nodded, her gaze involuntarily falling on the woman beside him, slender and elegant, delicate and charming. In the brief moment when their bodies parted, the two locked eyes.
As she stepped into the elevator, she faintly heard a woman behind her ask, "Fuyan, who is she?"
As she walked out of the elevator, the secretary of the CEO's office was about to go out for lunch. Seeing her come in, a flash of shock flickered in her eyes. Yan Ning's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she felt that everyone's gaze on her today seemed somewhat strange, as if they were surprised and... gloating at her misfortune?
Ye Anning shook her head, silently scolding herself for not sleeping well lately and being absent-minded.
She knocked on the door until a cold, hard male voice came from inside before she pushed it open and went in.
His gaze fell on the man behind the office desk, his eyebrows furrowed, and his pen moved quickly as he wrote something. At this moment, the sunlight was shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, casting a golden glow on the ground, which made his handsome face look somewhat unreal.
Pei Jun waited for half a day but didn't hear the person who came in after knocking on the door report anything. He raised his head impatiently, and when he saw the woman standing at the door, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, followed by an expression of delight. However, he suddenly thought of Yang Dan, who had just left, and his expression became somewhat unnatural.
However, he then realized that there shouldn't be any contact between them, let alone with Ye Anning's temper, if something really happened, she wouldn't have come up. Thinking of this, Pei Jun settled his mind and asked with a raised eyebrow, "How did you get here?"
"Not welcome? If I'm not welcome, then I'll leave." Yan Anning hummed softly and turned around, pretending to want to walk away.
Bai Jun's heart couldn't suppress the excitement, knowing she was joking, but he still jumped up from his chair and strode to the door, grasping her small hand that had fallen on the doorknob, and pulled her into his arms. He whispered in her ear, "Now that you're here, don't think about leaving!"
She smiled softly, her ears tickled by the warm breath he exhaled.
"By the way, I saw Fuyan downstairs when I came in earlier. Who was the woman with him? She's really beautiful." She didn't know why she asked, knowing it might be one of his clients, but she couldn't help asking. Earlier, when they locked eyes with the woman downstairs, she had an inexplicable feeling in her heart.
"You look pretty in my eyes too, little one." He replied with a gentle tone, his large hands rubbing her arm as he noticed what she was holding and curiously asked, "What's that you're holding?"
Ye Anning's face turned red, this was the first time he had ever complimented her. No woman would not be moved when the one she loved said she was beautiful, so she instantly forgot about the previous question and murmured, "Love heart lunch, do you want to eat?"
When he heard this, Pei Jun's eyes flashed with surprise, and he walked her to the sofa, sat down, and looked at what she took out of her bag - not takeout, but a lunchbox. He was even more curious, "Lunch? Why isn't it a takeout box? You didn't make it yourself, did you?"
His question was clearly lacking in confidence, because he didn't believe she could cook at all, and had even deliberately made it for him to bring over at noon.
Ye Anning's eyes flashed with a hint of slyness, and she pursed her lips, saying, "Of course it wasn't me who made it. You don't know that I can't cook, do you? This is the lunch I packed for you from the school cafeteria. What, are you picky?"
She finished speaking and turned her head to look at him, and indeed his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, the school cafeteria...
Ye Anning stifled a smile, her eyes falling on a takeout bag on the table. "So even your secretary has ordered food for you? How early is this? I came out especially early." She muttered somewhat unhappily, glaring at him with her eyes, "Which one are you going to eat?"
Bai Jun looked at her with a headache, crying and laughing "You've already threatened me naked, do I have any other choice?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Anning's mouth finally curled up, "This is more like it, quickly try the flavor, I'm telling you, this was made by the best chef in our school, hurry up and take a bite, give me some feedback."
Dan ate his meal with relish. Ye Anning placed a piece of Kung Pao chicken in front of his mouth, her eyes full of expectation. Pei Junying's lips curled slightly, and his eyes softened for a moment. He opened his mouth and took a bite, chewed, and his eyebrows drew closer together.
"How is it, how is it, is it delicious?" she asked impatiently.
Bai Jun never thought that she would do this, so he ignored the expectation in her eyes and gave a very objective evaluation: "The noodles are too thick, the fried chicken is a bit old, and it's too salty..."
