Chapter 1062: Mysterious Neighbor!

Su Ji got into the car from the back door. Before she got into the car, she smiled and said something to the person sitting in the back seat, looking very intimate.
One could immediately guess who the man sitting in the back row was.
Liang Ruifeng asked the staff beside him, “what kind of car is the black license plate here? Is it a taxi?”
The staff member thought for a moment. “No way…we called a few taxis in the morning. The taxis here seem to have a yellow license plate.”
What could it be?
Liang Ruifeng touched his chin suspiciously.
The car that came to pick Su Ji up caused a lot of discussion in the production team.
After they arrived at Golden Town, they saw many luxury cars. Some were the latest models that had not yet been released in the country, and some were limited edition models that they had only seen in magazines. However, it was their first time seeing a black license plate. It would be a lie to say that they were not curious.
In the car, Pei Huai asked Su Ji about today’s filming.
As Su Ji spoke, Pei Huai listened quietly.
It was like picking up a child from school.
However, Su Ji was not as obedient as a child. She would raise half of her eyebrows and say that someone was low and not to be trifled with. Pei Huai liked her style.
When she was tired of talking, Pei Huai’s gaze fell on the driver in the front seat. “Let’s go home.”
“Don’t go back yet!” Su Ji followed suit. The driver, who reacted quickly, drew a snake shape on the steering wheel.
Pei Huai stared at the back of his head with a knife-like gaze. Two seconds later, he looked away and asked his wife, “is there anything else?”
Su Ji told him that Jin Fengze had asked her to go to the hotel to coax Long Dahai.
She had almost forgotten.
Only then did she remember.
Pei Huai nodded nonchalantly and said to the chauffeur, “go back.”
Su Ji: ?
Pei Huai opened his phone’s contact list, keyed in the first letter, and pressed the dial button. “This is a small matter. Talk to him over the phone.” “That’s true.” Su Ji thought for a moment. This person was smart.
She reached out to ask Pei Huai for his phone.
However, Pei Huai did not give it to her. Instead, he pressed the phone to his ear. “Rest.”
A second later, he said, “I’ll help you coax him…
At the same time, an assistant director who picked up the call from the investor happened to hear this. He was a little numb.
Su Ji’s lips twitched when she saw that his husband did not look like he was trying to coax someone. “Then help me pass on the message. Tell Director Jin to calm down and not forget to come to the set at eight tomorrow morning. It’s not worth it if it affects the filming progress.”
Pei Huai nodded and handed her a brown paper bag. Su Ji opened it, and the fragrant smell of roasted golden chestnuts wafted into her nose.
She leaned back in her seeat and started eating without worry.
She listened to her husband convey what she had just said…
Pei Huai said, “Assistant Director Long.”
Long Dahai held his phone obediently and sat upright. “CEO Pei, please speak!”
Pei Huai said, “Director Jin asked you to stop for a while. Be on set at eight o’clock sharp tomorrow morning. If it affects the filming progress…you will bear the consequences.”
On the other end of the phone, Long Dahai: ‘
Su Ji, who was eating chestnuts and listening on the other end of the phone:
Her husband seemed to have conveyed every word, but there seemed to be something wrong…
A moment later, Pei Huai hung up the phone.
The chestnut in Su Ji’s mouth touched her left cheek. “What did Director Long
Pei Huai said, “he said that he was too impulsive today and that he should be more careful next time. Also, he definitely won’t be late tomorrow.” su Ji:
Alright then.
No matter what, the mission was completed.
“By the way,” Pei Huai looked at her and said, “it’s rare that you don’t have to shoot with the crew tomorrow, but I have a social engagement.”
Tomorrow was Nan Miaomiao’s vlog with the male lead, Liang Ruifeng, so Su Ji could take a day off.
She replied with an “oh”.
Pei Huai said, “but a little fellow will be here tomorrow. With it accompanying you, you shouldn’t be bored.”
He didn’t say anything else, but his lips curved into a profound smile.
The black license plate allowed one to enter and leave the embassy without any hindrance. When they arrived at the villa, the neighbor was on the phone in the yard.
This was the first time Su Ji saw the oil tycoon’s grandfather, so she took a closer look.
The old man had tanned skin and wore a white robe with a Middle Eastern style. He wore a white scarf with gold and jade accessories on his head. He was of medium build and had a big beard. On the five fingers of his hand that was holding a walking stick, there were five big gemstone rings of different colors. Two more would make it rainbow. He looked rich and overbearing.
The old man noticed and met Su Ji’s gaze with a serious expression. He continued to say something on the phone and then shifted his gaze to her side. When he saw Pei Huai, he took the initiative to smile, although he did put on a superficial smile.
It seemed that he was not an easy neighbor to get along with.
The next morning.
“Kaka!”
Su Ji was woken up by a familiar voice. When she opened her eyes, Pei Yuanyang was wearing a small straw hat and a small mini satchel slung across her long neck. She flapped her wings and flew to the windowsill outside their bedroom. Her two orange webs stood apart, and her wings were spread out as if she had her hands on her hips. She was very angry.
“Kaka!”
This was Pei Yuanyang’s first overseas trip!
And she even took a private jet!
Su Ji sat up on the bed, crossed her legs, and brushed her hair back.
After a while, she laughed.
It seemed that this was the little guy who had come to her business trip to relieve her boredom.
She got out of bed and pushed open the window.
Pei Yuanyang flew happily into her mommy’s arms!
Out of the three little fellows in the family, Xiao Tong and Xiao Lingxian could accompany each other. They would not be too lonely when they were not around, but Pei Yuanyang could not. She was originally pretentious and competitive. Now that she was spoiled by Pei Huai, she was even more clingy. Moreover, because she did not like Xiao Tong, she could only be placed in the old mansion.
Taking advantage of this business trip, Pei Huai brought it along.
When Su Ji woke up, Pei Huai was no longer there. He had a social gathering today to meet with a third party with Henry.
Although these two big shots did not like each other and were like fire and water, they could feel the strong hostility just by standing together. However, when the two of them united their camp to meet a third party…then, no matter who the third party was, they would feel an unprecedented pressure!
In layman’s terms, it would be very tragic.
After lunch, Su Ji took Pei Yuanyang for a walk in the courtyard.
The straw hat was still on her head. Pei Yuanyang liked it and did not allow anyone else to take it off. Even the butler could not coax her.
Pei Yuanyang was in a good mood as she took a walk and basked in the sun with her mommy. She swayed left and right as she walked, taking small steps.
Su Ji walked half a circle around the garden. When she turned around again, she noticed an oil tycoon looking in their direction from the floor-to-ceiling window of his neighbor’s house.
However, in the next second, the old man pulled the curtains in front of him and refused to communicate with her.
Su Ji shrugged.
They were going to stay here for a month and would be seeing the old man next door. In fact, they should give him a gift or something.
However…this old man was as rich as a country and did not lack anything. It was not easy to cater to his preferences.
What would he like?
