Chapter 526: Why Was It Different From What was Written in the Novels?

An hour later, Su Ji had already read one-fifth of the book.

At this moment, the corridor outside the door was empty.

A notification sounded. She reached into her pocket and took out her phone.

It was a WeChat message from Pei Huai.

[ “I’ll be there in 20 minutes. Wait for me in the room.

Su Ji snorted at the message.

Even the tyrant was not as demanding as him.

But then she looked around and realized that even though she was annoyed, she was still obediently waiting in his room.

Moreover, she came in an hour earlier.

Sigh.

She really had no principles now.

[ “How was the social gathering?” ]

Pei Huai always closed deals, so Su Ji was just asking.

However, a few seconds later, she received a reply.

[ “It didn’t work out.” ]

Su Ji: ?

This was new.

The invincible leader in the business world had met his match today.

She then looked at the previous message Pei Huai sent her.

She touched the tip of her nose.

Could it be that he was in a bad mood because he did not manage to close the deal?

After hesitating for a while, she exited the chat with Pei Huai and sent a message to Shen Mu…

At the same time, in the car heading to the Pei family’s house.

Shen Mu turned his phone on silent mode and the screen lit up. When he saw the message, he suddenly straightened his body and blinked. He turned around to look at his CEO. “CEO, Ms. Su sent me a WeChat message asking why you didn’t close the deal today…”

Pei Huai was refreshing the chat box with Su Ji, but he did not receive a reply from his girlfriend for a long time. It turned out that she sent a message to Shen Mu.

“She asked you about that?” Pei Huai put down his phone. His well-defined fingers rested lightly on his thigh, and his fingertips slowly tapped twice. Shen Mu checked the message again. “Yes, should I…tell her the truth?”

After all, the reason for the failure was related to her. Under such circumstances, most would keep it to themselves. Later on, when conflicts arise between the two of them in the future, the girl would realize what he’d done for her and be absolutely touched.

Therefore, Shen Mu asked the CEO for his opinion.

However, Pei Huai looked at him. After a moment, he raised his eyebrows. “I never hide anything from her.”

Um…

Why was it different from what was written in the novel…

Shen Mu understood. ‘Yes, boss!”

After answering, he immediately began to type. Pei Huai closed his eyes to rest, and a faint smell of alcohol lingered in his breath..

Meanwhile, Su Ji found out before Pei Huai returned home.

It involved an important business partner. Du Meilan’s first plan after returning to the country was to facilitate the cooperation between the Pei Corporation and them.

And just a few days ago, the person in charge suddenly took the initiative to contact the Pei Corporation. They were willing to give up on the conditions that they insisted on last time. This made Du Meilan very happy and she told Pei Huai to seize this opportunity.

Pei Huai was as calm as usual. To him, this was no different from the other cases he had on hand. However, since Madam Du had requested it, he took it seriously. He had spent a lot of effort and even arranged for a meeting with the person in charge at the Four Seasons Club today.

However, after meeting them, he knew that the reason why the other side suddenly became so easy to talk to was not because they had thought it through, but…they were here for the duke.

The person-in-charge hinted that the two families should form an alliance. Their consortium was greatly restricted by the duke in State M and State O, so it would be beneficial to have a good relationship with the duke. It was an unwritten rule in the business world for allies to help each other.

Pei Huai smiled and asked him how he heard about the relationship between the duke and the Pei family. The person in charge only said that he had heard it by chance, but Pei Huai felt that it was more likely that someone had deliberately released the news.

The duke had been in a high position for a long time. He was sharp and shrewd. This was his gift to the Pei family.

But at the same time, it was also a hint.

The person-in-charge looked at the young and promising Pei Huai, unable to hide his envy. Not only was he talented at such a young age, but his connections were also so powerful. According to the information they had obtained, the relationship between the Pei family and the duke would not just be one of friendship..

This young man had a bright future.

The person-in-charge slammed the contract on the table and handed the pen to Pei Huai, letting him name his price.

However, Pei Huai took the pen but did not open it. He twirled it around his fingertips and gently placed it on the table. He smiled and explained it clearly.

This included the current relationship between the Pei Corporation and the duke, as well as the possibility that the relationship would worsen due to some uncertain factors in the future.

All in all, if they signed a cooperation contract in order to get the connection with the duke, it would be a 90% loss.

The person-in-charge was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect this outcome at all.

He repeatedly confirmed with Pei Huai, and Pei Huai affirmed it.

In the end, the two sides parted on bad terms.

The deal did not work out.

Su Ji asked Shen Mu how much impact this cooperation had on the Pei Corporation, but Shen Mu said that it was not that big.

However, Su Ji knew that was not the case.

Pei Huai gave up such a huge benefit for her. To be honest, her heart ached a little when she heard it.

If it was her, there might be a one percent chance that she would first trick him into cooperating with her and then act according to the circumstances. After all, all uncertain factors were not written in the contract. Pei Huai would definitely have thought of this.

But he did not do so.

He did not want the day to come when Su Ji or his future mother-in-law would hear about this matter. He wanted to reassure them and nip everything in the bud.

Su Ji lifted her collar and glanced inside.

It seemed that she couldn’t avoid it today…

Not long after, she heard the sound of a car outside the window. She turned to look out the window.

The familiar black car stopped in the yard, and the door of the passenger seat and the back seat opened almost at the same time.

Shen Mu wanted to open the car door for Pei Huai, but he was a step too late. Pei Huai said something to him, and he nodded. He obediently returned to the car. After a while, the driver drove the car away.

Pei Huai planned to go upstairs after he got home.. However, as soon as he entered the living room, he was stopped by Du Meilan, who did not look too good..
