The women laughed and entered the elevator. One of the female celebrities with studded eyebrows pressed the elevator b.u.t.ton as she spoke.

Just like the crew of the Qingqiu Tactics, they were also arranged to stay at Henry Hotel.

On the way here, she wanted to strike up a conversation with her, but that chick did not give her any face at all. She even showed her what seemed to be a wedding ring in public . She had never met someone like this in Country M.

She was usually the one who rejected others.

Ever since their TV series became popular, there were countless girls who wanted to pursue her.

She thought that she would be very angry when she was rejected for the first time, but in fact, she was more interested than she had imagined.

She had asked her manager to ask around.

That person was called Su Ji.

As expected, she was also attending the award ceremony. She was a female celebrity from China.

They were also competing with her production team at this award ceremony.

She knew that with that kind of appearance, it was impossible for her not to be a female celebrity.

However, just as the elevator door was about to close, a hand reached in.

He blocked the elevator door.

Everyone was shocked.

It was a surgeon’s hand. It was cold and fair, but it also looked like a pianist’s hand because there were no flaws or scars.

There was a wedding ring on his ring finger. The design was simple and elegant, making them pay attention to it as if they had seen something similar somewhere before.

But no matter what, this hand was definitely strong.

The elevator door opened.

It was that man again.

“I’m sorry, I accidentally overheard your conversation.” Pei Huai smiled at them.

Conversation?

Which sentence?

The female celebrities looked at each other.

Pei Huai said, “are you all here to attend the award ceremony as well?” His gaze had already locked onto the person with the studded eyebrows.

‘May I ask which production team? Can you tell me?”

Was he here to flirt?

The female celebrities looked at each other and smiled shyly.

Only the female star with studded eyebrows had her own barrier against Pei Huai, and she was hostile.

“Why do you ask?” she said provocatively. Pei Huai’s smile was still gentle. “You won’t tell? That’s fine.”

To him, it was just a few more words.

However, the female celebrities around him thought that he was going to let it go and quickly said, “we’ll tell you!”

Pei Huai stopped with his back facing them.

The female celebrity with the brightest eyes said, “we’re from the crew of

Escape Island! Maybe you have watched our drama? It’s very popular in M Country and overseas!”

Pei Huai’s lips curved up in an ambiguous manner.

The female celebrity with studded eyebrows glared at the person who spoke.

“Who told you to tell him?”

“He asked…’

“And you have to tell him?”

Another stepped forward to smooth things over. “Forget it. That man looks like he’s wearing a wedding ring. It seems like he knows how to play. We should be careful. Don’t let the media take any photos of us.”

Hearing the word “wedding ring”, the female celebrity with the studded eyebrows suddenly frowned.

She looked in the direction that the man had left and was shocked.

She seemed to remember why she felt that the ring was familiar.

Actually, it wasn’t just the ring. Even the man’s aura was familiar!

At the same time, her body started to feel cold for no reason…

After Pei Huai picked up his wife, he did not go straight back to the emba.s.sy. Instead, he navigated to a very famous local F-style business restaurant.

It was already eleven o’clock in the evening in Continent O. Su Ji said that it was too sinful to eat so late at night.

However, Pei Huai looked at her sideways and said, “it’s daytime in China now. Before the jet lag pa.s.ses, it doesn’t count as supper.”

Su Ji:

Pei Huai smiled lightly and left with his hands on the steering wheel.

The restaurant had a quiet environment. The waiters would not disturb the guests, so his wife could eat quietly and relax.

As for the dishes, they might not be as luxurious as other restaurants. They would serve fixed dishes and the prices were very ordinary.

Just…a few thousand yuan per person.

Since Su Ji was here, he should take it easy.

She wasn’t hungry, but the one in her stomach that said “he” was hungry.

The restaurant catered to the CEO’s “simple” meals, and every dish was very exquisite.

Although there was no private room, the environment was very elegant and quiet.

A light melody poured out from the pianist’s fingertips. The blond waiter’s behavior was very elegant.

The soft white curtains fluttered slightly in the breeze. The night was hazy outside the window. The CEOs had just finished their social gatherings and were enjoying their work meals in a relaxed manner.

The guests at each table had good dining etiquette. The volume of their conversation was limited to their own table, and the knives and forks did not make any sound when they were used.

“Eat more.” Pei Huai watched Su Ji eat with enjoyment.

By the time Su Ji realized what was going on, the so-called “midnight snack doesn’t count with jet lag” was a real scam. Her twelve-course meal was already coming to an end.

The last dessert was almond lemon flavored. It was the perfect finisher.

After finishing the last dessert, Su Ji began to calculate the degree of swelling that would occur during tomorrow’s shoot.

Director Jin had specially mentioned the process during the meeting just now. The production team would arrange for a vlog to be filmed tomorrow. After the staff processed it, they would post it on the official website as a benefit for the fans.

Recently, the finale of the Qingqiu Tactics was being screened in the country.

However, because Su Ji’s scenes ended early, the Pei’s did not pay any more attention to it.

After the meal, the restaurant waiter took the initiative to come over and say that he wanted to help them get their car.

This was the service that the restaurant would provide to their distinguished customers.

Because the parking lot was quite far from the main entrance of the restaurant, the waiter would bring the car over for the customers before they left and drive it directly to the entrance of the restaurant. This way, the customers could get in the car as soon as they left, saving a lot of time.

However, Su Ji politely refused. “No need to trouble you. We’ll just walk there ourselves later.”

“This…

The waiter was worried that the service was not good enough, so he looked at the gentleman sitting opposite him awkwardly.

Pei Huai nodded slightly. The waiter placed his hands in front of him before nodding and leaving.

After the waiter left, Pei Huai asked why she wanted to walk

Su Ji shrugged. “I’m afraid of getting fat. I just ate so much.”

This kind of trouble was something that a certain CEO with a natural supermodel figure couldn’t understand.

However, although Pei Huai could not understand, he could very considerately express his understanding.

“Don’t worry.” He smiled calmly and got up. “I’ve arranged other exercises for you when we get back tonight…”

Su Ji:

A second later, “?!”

Pei Huai had already arrived in front of her. He placed one hand on the back of the chair behind her and the other hand on the edge of the table. He bent down and leaned close to her ear. The words he said were even more sour than the moral sour beef stew just now.

It sounded like a warning, but it also sounded like praise.

“You are quite charming.. I just got off the plane today and I already have a new love rival..
