Chapter 215: I am His Girlfriend

Su Ji might be indifferent at times, but she was quite meticulous this time.

It would not be nice to ask Pei Huai when his birthday was, so she called Shen Mu.

When Shen Mu received the call, he was surprised and happy. “Ms. Su, I didn’t expect you to be so meticulous. The boss’ birthday is on the 9th of December, which is next Wednesday!”

In fact, even if Su Ji had not called, Shen Mu planned to remind her next Tuesday!

Hearing this, Su Ji was in a difficult position.

There was not enough time to prepare a birthday gift.

In the past, she had always prepared a birthday gift for her bestie a month in advance.

In the past, people celebrated their lunar birthdays, but now, they celebrated their Gregorian birthdays. Pei Huai was one of them.

Su Ji still remembered that her bestie’s birthday was also in winter, which was November in the lunar calendar.

The next day, Monday morning, at around 5 am, Su Ji was woken up by Huang Huayu’s call. “Do you have any work today?”

Su Ji looked at the time. She was silent for about a minute before she finally woke up. “I don’t think so. Why?”

Huang Huayu said, “come to Blue Whale! Director Han has an urgent announcement!”

Su Ji paused.

40 minutes later, Si Jingchuan, Zhou Xuefang, Ms. Feng, Tang Yitian, and a few other people who were involved in “The Billions Stars” gathered for an emergency meeting.

They didn’t even have time to put on makeup. It was obvious that they had just woken up and were all quite confused.

At this time, there were not many people in the building, and the security guards had not come to work yet.

However, this kind of meeting was very common in Han Junlei’s production team.

Everyone was starting to get used to it.

It was like in the military.

Si Jingchuan waved at Su Ji and said, “boss, it was fun yesterday! ”

Zhou Xuefang looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Tang Yimo’s gaze was unfriendly as well.

How shameless, she actually met him in private.

However, when Han Junlei told them what the emergency meeting was about, the two of them no longer had the mood to care about Su Ji.

“Are we really going overseas for the shoot?” Zhou Xuefang asked.

Tang Yimo asked, “are we taking the flight this afternoon?”

Han Junlei was a perfectionist and did not want to fake the scene like Song Heng did.

Moreover, the fourth episode was about the company staff going abroad. There were many scenes abroad. If they were all set in China, the cost would be almost as high as going abroad.

Huang Huayu replied, “we are going to Country T. I’m taking a flight this afternoon. I’ll be back on Thursday night. Everyone, go back and quickly prepare. It’s quite warm there, so you don’t have to bring thick clothes.”

The room was filled with complaints

“I still have to stream tomorrow.”

“The time is too tight.”

“What if there’s no one to dogsit for me?”

“Stop complaining,” Han Junlei said. “Settle your personal matters. There’s a special note in the contract that you signed. If there’s a conflict in your schedule, you have to put the production first.”

There was indeed such a clause in the contract. The moment Han Junlei said that, the others fell silent.

Si Jingchuan was very excited. “Boss, we can go abroad together. Country T is so fun. It’s in the south. There are elephants and many beautiful ladies. Boss, you’ll definitely like it!

“…”

Pei Huai’s birthday was on Wednesday.

She couldn’t spend his boyfriend’s birthday with him.

It was already 9 o’clock when they left.

All the actors and actresses rushed home to prepare.

They had to gather in the afternoon and set off, so the schedule was very tight.

Su Ji called Pei Huai first, but his phone was off, which was rare.

She then called Shen Mu and found out why.

“Ms. Su, boss went to a factory today for an inspection. It’s not convenient to turn on his phone in the workshop, so he turned it off. Is there anything I can help you with?”

“Can you send me the address of the factory?” Su Ji asked.

Shen Mu’s voice was a little excited. “No problem, I’ll send it to you now!”

An hour later, Su Ji arrived at the car factory.

The factory was located in the suburbs of A City. It covered a large area and was divided into many workshops.

The new energy vehicle that she was going to endorse in the future was also manufactured here.

An automobile factory like this was different from an ordinary factory. Usually, other than the employees, there were not many outsiders here.

As soon as Su Ji entered the hall, she was stopped by the receptionists.

The two girls at the front desk were not as enthusiastic as the ones working at the front desk in the Pei Corporation who were used to receiving guests. When they saw Su Ji, they did not even smile. “Who are you looking for?”

Su Ji was basically covered up whenever she went out, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to recognize her.

She walked over and placed her beautiful and slender hand on the table. “h.e.l.lo. I’m looking for CEO Pei, who came for an inspection today.”

“Who?” The receptionist’s tone was very exaggerated.

Su Ji’s face was expressionless as she spelled it out, “C-E-O P-E-I. ”

They frowned. She was looking for CEO Pei instead of CEO w.a.n.g?

CEO Pei only came once a year, and she was not even wearing a formal suit.

One look and one could tell that she was just a fan of CEO Pei.

The receptionist sounded impolite. “CEO Pei is here for work today. He’s not seeing any guests.”

Su Ji raised her eyebrows and casually tapped her fingers. “Is it up to you to decide whether he will see the guests or not?”

Don’t think they can bully her just because she’s from ancient times.

“…”

Normally, she should have made an appointment. One of the receptionists rolled her eyes and impatiently opened the computer.

Her manicured fingers were tapping on the keyboard, and the sound of her nails scratching against the keyboard was very harsh.

The receptionist obviously felt that it was a waste of time. “We’ll register your name first. But it’s up to the CEO whether he wants to see you or not. Your name?”

Su Ji did not want to reveal her ident.i.ty, but if she only mentioned Ms. Su, she was afraid that Pei Huai would not know it was her.

She hesitated for a few seconds before calmly replying, “his girlfriend.”

The receptionist’s hand that was tapping on the computer suddenly stopped. “Who?”

Su Ji ran out of patience. “Can you just check if I can meet him or not?”

“Pfft-”

The receptionists looked at each other and their faces turned red as they tried to hold back their laughter.

“Then, we’ll make a note that you’re CEO Pei’s girlfriend.”

“Don’t blame us if he doesn’t want to see you or calls the police.”

This was really funny. Was she delusional?

She actually said that she was CEO Pei’s girlfriend!

Su Ji smiled mysteriously. “Don’t worry, I won’t blame you.”

The receptionists shook their heads helplessly.

Then, the door to the workshop behind opened, and polite greetings were heard.

A few men in suits and leather shoes walked out.

Pei Huai was the one walking in front.

CEO w.a.n.g was explaining something to him, and there were eight or nine senior executives behind him.

Pei Huai was still wearing his usual dark-colored suit and trousers, looking straight and tall. Under the light, his fair skin made his facial features look even more exquisite.

The people around him kept talking to him, and he would occasionally nod. He looked mature and sophisticated.

Pei Huai, who was leading a group of people over, suddenly turned his head and saw Su Ji standing at the front desk.

Even though she was fully covered, she could still recognize her instantly.

He stopped in his tracks.

He could not hide his surprise.

Then, he walked straight towards her.

The receptionists’ face turned pale when she saw the CEO walking towards them.

She must have seen the registration and wanted to question them.

They glared at Su Ji and quickly ran over.

Pei Huai stopped in front of Su Ji, and the two receptionists also came over.

“Sorry, she was the one who insisted that we make an appointment and said that she was your girlfriend! We can’t make her leave.”

As they spoke, Pei Huai’s hand landed on Su Ji’s head. He spoke in an extremely doting voice, “why are you here?”
