353 Come Back in Two Hours
Pei Huai stared at her red, drunk eyes and ground his teeth. “If someone else had called you just now, would you have turned on your video?”
His possessiveness was starting to show.
Su Ji was puzzled by his question. “No, only if it’s you.”
Pei Huai said, “who am I?”
“Pei Huai,” Su Ji said his name. “You are Pei Huai.”
Pei Huai’s expression was unfathomable, the light in his eyes flickering.
His heart seemed to be at ease, but another part of him was excited.
At this moment, she could see but not touch her. He couldn’t send anyone else to take care of her, not even a female staff member. He knew that she would mess around when she drank too much.
Su Ji fell asleep soon after. She was so sleepy that she forgot to turn off the video call. Pei Huai did not turn it off either. They were connected the whole time.
He watched as she lay on her side on the bed without a blanket.
Her legs were long, and the camera was focused on her ankles.
There was a fire in his heart.
Finally, an hour after the video call was connected, Pei Huai pushed back all of his work for the day and the next few days and boarded his private jet.
He flew to XBY.
He took the private jet because it was fast. Eight hours later, early in the morning, Pei Huai’s car arrived at the entrance of the hotel where Su Ji was staying.
Huang Huayu had sent him the hotel and Su Ji’s room number the day before when he was still sober.
After getting out of the car, Pei Huai went straight to the elevator, while Shen Mu followed behind to check in at the counter.
It was his first time helping the CEO with such a thing, but he was very talented and very skilled. “Hello, I want to get a Presidential Suite. The bed must be very big and very solid!”
He spoke in fluent Spanish, and the brown-haired beauty at the front desk kept glancing at the elevator, “no problem!”
The man who went in just now was so handsome!
With a “ding”, Pei Huai arrived at the floor where Su Ji was.
The crew stayed on this floor. At this time, people were coming out of their rooms to talk about the award ceremony.
Han Junlei was the first to wake up. He was still holding his breakfast when he saw Pei Huai. He said naturally, “good morning, CEO Pei.”
The next second after he passed him, he quickly turned around, “what are you doing here?!”
It would take 13 hours to fly here!
The other people in the corridor also noticed Pei Huai. They were all dumbfounded and shook their heads, thinking that they were still drunk..
“CEO Pei, are you also participating in the awards ceremony?”
“Why didn’t you come with us? CEO Pei, you’re so handsome!”
“See? I told you that CEO Pei is more handsome than Mr. Casar!”
At the end of yesterday’s drinking session, a few female celebrities had gathered together out of boredom and discussed who was more handsome, CEO Pei or Mr. Casar.
Of course, it was CEO Pei who won!
Pei Huai ignored her and only nodded slightly in response. When he passed by her, he subconsciously placed his hand behind his back.
He had been on the plane for eight hours, and he was dealing with work the entire time. He had not slept a wink, but he did not feel tired at all.
Han Junlei followed behind him, “CEO Pei, you’re going to…”
“Which room is Su Ji staying in?”
Han Junlei suddenly understood why he suddenly appeared here. “Ah, yes. She is in that room.”
“Why is CEO Pei looking for Su Ji again?”
“From what you heard yesterday, it was CEO Pei who called Su Ji, right?”
The sounds of discussion rose again. Pei Huai’s lies were perfunctory. “I’m looking for her to talk about business.”
Would a boss talk to his subordinates about business in a hotel room overseas?
Everyone was obviously thinking this, but no one dared to say it out loud.
The crew had a good time at dinner yesterday, so she drank quite a bit,” Han Junlei explained.
Pei Huai stopped in his tracks and his gaze fell on him, “you made her drink?”
“No, no!” Han Junlei wanted to show the surveillance footage of the restaurant last night to prove his innocence. He shook his head frantically and tried to clear his name. “It has nothing to do with me!”
Pei Huai continued to walk towards Su Ji’s room until he stopped in front of her door. He slowly let out a breath.
He glanced at the door handle.
Good, she locked the door.
“What’s happening? Why is it so noisy?” Xu Ni scratched her head and stuck her head out from next door. The second her eyes met Pei Huai’s, she felt as if she had traveled back in time.
At that moment, Si Jingchuan opened the door and came out. He was wearing loose pajamas and had a ball of toilet paper stuffed in his nose, but he still looked good.
“Who sent her back last night?”
Xu Ni’s two index fingers were placed on her temples as she quickly recalled what had happened yesterday.
What made CEO Pei travel thousands of miles?
Si Jingchuan was the only one who did not drink last night. He was also the one who paid the bill first, so he had to be honest.
Ten minutes later, he touched the back of his neck. He started from the first missed call Pei Huai made to Su Ji yesterday to how he sent them to the room. In the middle, he even emphasized that the person who helped Su Ji was a female staff member.
Pei Huai then asked him, “why is your nose bleeding?”
Si Jingchuan’s heart tightened. He couldn’t fool this man!
Seeing that he was starting to get nervous, Pei Huai’s expression darkened.
However, when Si Jingchuan gritted his teeth and told him the truth, Pei Huai’s face turned from gloomy to sunny.
Even though this was worth getting angry over, it was at least better than the worst possible reason he had thought of.
Xu Ni’s mouth was wide open, “impossible!”
Si Jingchuan snorted and said, “if not why would my nose bleed?”
“You pervert!”
Her voice finally woke up Su Ji.
Su Ji got up from the bed. She did not draw the curtains last night, so the room was already quite bright. She lowered her head to look at herself and calmly retracted her gaze.
The only thing she felt was a headache.
She casually pulled out a long nightdress provided by the hotel and put it on. Her long hair was slightly messy, and she combed it with her fingers, revealing her delicate facial features.
She didn’t even fasten the buttons of her nightdress. With one hand holding the nightdress in front of her and the other pushing the door open, she was about to ask what was going on outside when Pei Huai’s body blocked her view of the outside. The other people in the corridor only knew that she had opened the door and couldn’t see what she was wearing at the moment.
Before Su Ji could react to what was going on, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the room.
The people in the corridor only just registered what Pei Huai said before he slammed the door shut.
“It’s an important business meeting. Come back in two hours.”
