Chapter 999: Su Ji Acting Coquettishly
....
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
She called Jiang Chu right in front of Nan Miaomiao.
Nan Miaomiao p.r.i.c.ked up her ears to hear her voice.
Her caller ringtone sounded even more deranged than hers!
Su Ji said that she wanted to invite Jiang Chu over next week, but she didn’t say what she wanted to do. Jiang Chu didn’t ask either. He asked another question,
“Is Mr. Pei…going to be there?”
“It’s all girls that day. He won’t be there,” Su Ji said.
That would be great!
Jiang Chu agreed immediately. “I’ll go then!”
Su Ji replied, “alright.”
Nan Miaomiao rolled her eyes in her heart. After Su Ji hung up, she leaned her head over. “Roommate, you have to be careful. She usually dresses so scantily and is CEO Pei’s fan. She might have other motives for getting close to you.”
However, Su Ji glanced at the phone screen and said slowly, “I think…”
Halfway through her sentence, she noticed Nan Miaomiao’s gossipy expression. “What did she do to CEO Pei?”
“Nothing.” Su Ji tapped her forehead with her phone. “Don’t worry about other people’s business.”
Nan Miaomiao made a “tsk” sound and retracted her head.
Coincidentally, her phone rang at this moment. She glanced at the caller ID, “Big Blockhead”.
She picked it up and said in a sweet voice, “Lu Shang- yes, it just ended…”
Lu Shang had also listened to their interview and heard the part where Nan Miaomiao almost went berserk.
“No, I won’t get angry over such a small matter…” she said coquettishly.
Su Ji was right beside her, and Nan Miaomiao hung up after a few minutes.
She threw her phone back on the table and saw her roommate looking at her with a half-smile.
“What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Su Ji’s lips curled up.” It’s rare for you to be so patient with him in such a situation.”
Nan Miaomiao sighed with an expression that said, “I envy him for having such a virtuous girlfriend”. “I can’t help it. His birthday is next month. I’ll control myself and try not to lose my temper with him.”
Su Ji was not sure if she was touched by that sentence, but the phone in her palm paused for a moment. The screen lit up, and she glanced at the time.
It was now the end of November…
Pei Huai said that he was going to register their marriage next Monday, and that day was not a special day.
If Su Ji guessed correctly, the Civil Affairs Bureau was closed on the weekends, and the internal network was not operational. Pei Huai chose next Monday purely because he wanted to get this done on the first day of work at the Civil Affairs Bureau next week to avoid any trouble.
A sly glint flashed across Su Ji’s eyes.
Her fiancé was too impatient…
Ren Guanghua waited at the door of the lounge for half an hour. In the end, he could not help but knock on the door.
It just so happened that Su Ji and Nan Miaomiao had finished their business. She grabbed her messenger bag and stood up. “Don’t forget our appointment time.”
“Don’t worry, roommate. I’ll definitely be the first to arrive that day!” Nan Miaomiao was already looking forward to it.
Ren Guanghua let Ai Yan and Ai Meng leave in the nanny van while he was responsible for sending Su Ji back.
He was driving a black jeep, wearing a jacket as he headed to the driver’s seat. He looked like a veteran.
He wanted to send Su Ji back to the apartment, but Su Ji said after getting into the car, “please send me home.”
She went home at night.
Ren Guanghua placed his hands on the steering wheel and looked a little troubled. “Then, the CEO…
Su Ji waved his phone. “I’ll tell him.”
Ren Guanghua was relieved. He fastened his seatbelt and started the car.
The car drove steadily, and Pei Huai picked up Su Ji’s call.
Hearing that his fiancée wasn’t coming back to the apartment tonight, that man definitely wouldn’t be happy.
He had just finished his meeting, so he had no desire to go home. All that was left was the tiredness from his busy work.
“By the way, I want a few herbs.” Su Ji looked at the scenery outside the window and asked, “can you help me buy them from Huichun Hall?”
“Of course.” Pei Huai did not hesitate at all and agreed immediately. “Don’t even mention buying it. I’ll just take whatever medicine you want and send it to your home.”
“I don’t think you should…?” Su Ji touched the tip of her nose. “They’re a little expensive.”
In order to match the prescription of her new type of herbs, she wanted these herbs. These are the most expensive herbs in Huichun Hall.
Selling 10,000 bottles of all-purpose medicine might not be enough to cover these few pills.
Pei Huai was adamant. “I have shares in Huichun Hall. Moreover, Pei Song will not feel bad for such a small amount of money.”
This was the convenience of owning a medicine hall.
“Alright then.” Su Ji did not stand on ceremony with him and told him the names of the herbs. “Help me thank Pei Song.”
“Alright.” Pei Huai noted it down.
At the same time, Pei Song, who had once again caused an explosion in the apartment kitchen, sneezed loudly. He turned on the kitchen hood and exited the kitchen. He took a look at the calendar that Madam Xie had hung on the wall.
To see if it was a good day to cook[ Favorable: Using the stove ]
It shouldn’t be…
He looked down.
[ Taboo: Trading, starting a new career, losing money ]
Pei Song laughed. Looks like this thing was pure nonsense.
Huichun Hall’s business was very good every day. How could they lose money?
On the other side, Su Ji and Pei Huai had been on the phone the entire time.
They did not talk about anything important. The topics were all started by Pei Huai. His intentions were very obvious. He did not want to hang up.
When the car drove into Su Ji’s homme, Ren Guanghua very sensibly stopped by the side of the road and took out his phone to read the various company matters that his secretary had sent him. He was quiet and did not disturb the CEO and his future wife on the phone at all.
Su Ji glanced outside. “I’ve arrived.”
Pei Huai’s interest waned. His voice was low and hoa.r.s.e. “Don’t forget about the thing I told you during the day.”
If he had not mentioned it to Su Ji, she would have forgotten that this was the most important reason for her call.
“By the way, I want to postpone the marriage registration for a few days.”
She said it in a very normal tone, but Ren Guanghua, who was looking at his phone next to her, had an obvious change in expression.
The pressure spread along the telephone line into the car. Ren Guanghua could clearly feel that the air was starting to thin.
“No,” Pei Huai answered firmly.
Su Ji tapped her forehead. “You can’t make an exception?”
Pei Huai said, “give me a reason why you want to postpone it.”
Su Ji definitely had a reason, but she did not want to say it now.
She couldn’t say it, but she wanted Pei Huai to agree…
Su Ji pinched herself. It was as if she was possessed by Nan Miaomiao. “Just postpone it for a few days. Don’t ask for the reason now, okay? Please dear?” On the other end of the phone…there was no sound!
Su Ji did not hear an answer for a long time, so he asked again, “dear?”
Then, she heard a heavy breath coming from the quiet phone.
It was as if he was enduring something.
After a while, Pei Huai finally spoke. He said slowly, “just a few days…”
Su Ji smiled. “Deal!”
Just a few days.
Because December 9th was Pei Huai’s birthday…
