C6 Meet Again
Gu Jiajia had slept in the dark, and with the new environment and jet lag, it was nearly eleven o'clock when Jiajia woke up.
When Jiajia woke up, the first thing she did was look at her phone, this was a common ailment in people. Looking at the string of missed calls on her phone, the corners of her mouth twitched forcefully as she thought, "Is this Young Master Pei free this morning? Two minutes, one phone call, continuously calling for an hour!"
"Hello, hello." Because she had just woken up, Jiajia's voice was a little hoarse. However, when the electric current entered Pei Zhen's ears, the Eldest Young Master frowned.
"Just got up?" Pei Zhen said concisely.
"Well, what is it?"
"Grandmother said that she would call you, but you didn't ask me to ask what happened."
Jiajia looked at her cell phone. Sure enough, there were two or three missed calls.
"Yeah, I saw it."
"Once you've gotten up and cleaned up, you will know Shunjing, right? I won't go back for lunch. " Pei Zhen directly hung up after he finished talking to Gu Jiajia.
Gu Jiajia looked at her phone that had hung up. She felt like giggling. Could this man still be rude and not even say goodbye?
"No manners."
After Gu Jiajia said this, Pei Zhen got up and washed up. After greeting the two of them, Jiajia took a taxi to Shunjing.
"Jiajia, you're here. Go wash your hands, we're going to eat." Old Lady Pei called out to Gu Jiajia, who had just entered the room.
After Jiajia finished washing her hands, she sat down across from Old Lady Pei.
"I just woke up. I didn't get your call. Sorry, Grandma." Jiajia said apologetically.
Old Madame Pei had a 'I know everything' look on her face as she laughed.
"I know, I know, young people! "But you still have to control yourself …" The old lady said with an enigmatic expression.
When Gu Jiajia heard the word 'abstinence', she knew that the old lady was overthinking things. 'I'm really just trying to reverse the time difference. Please don't think too much of it, okay?'
Hurry up and eat while it's still hot. Today, the old man went out to play ball with a bunch of old men, and I'm the only one left.
Gu Jiajia agreed after thinking that she had nothing else to do.
Hua Xiao took the old lady and Gu Jiajia to a large shopping mall called 'star'.
"Jiajia, it's just a shopping mall that's newly opened by Ning City. Our family has some stocks, you can buy whatever you want later and just write it in Pei Zhen's name."
This was what the old lady said to Gu Jiajia when they were in the car. When they went in, they would see that almost all of them bought light luxury goods. Only the ones on the fourth and fifth floor were cheaper.
This shopping trip for the three of them became a solo shopping trip for Gu Jiajia. Soon, the old lady would buy each of Jiajia's dresses, Hua Xiao would buy a shirt for her, and they would come down with an uncountable number of shopping bags.
Looking at the shopping bags on the floor, the three of them were a little worried. How were they going to take them back? It was not quite possible for Jiajia to bring it back by herself. After she returned to the Shunjing, it would be somewhat troublesome to get Hua Xiao to send it over.
"Just ask Pei Zhen to come and take Jiajia home." The old lady's words roused her from her dreams.
Hua Xiao seemed to be enlightened, and she instantly understood what her mother-in-law meant. However, Jiajia felt a little awkward. She spent so much money to get Pei Zhen to pick her up, it was really …
When Jiajia recalled this, Hua Xiao had already called Pei Zhen.
"Come and bring Jiajia home, we have a lot of things to do."
"In star."
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Pei Zhen finally arrived at the entrance of the star. When he saw the shopping bags on the floor, Pei Zhen realized that he underestimated the purchasing power of three women.
"Then Second Aunt, bring Grandma home first. She and I will go home first." After taking 80% of the shopping bags, Pei Zhen walked on his long legs towards the car parked by the roadside.
After putting everything on the back seat, Jiajia also went in habitually. However, she hadn't seen the car start up since she sat in the back for a while.
"Come forward, I'm not your driver."
Gu Jiajia curled her lips before pushing the door open and getting off the car. She then sat in the front passenger seat.
"Do you have a driver's license?"
"Yes, but it hasn't been used in a long time."
"I hope this doesn't happen a second time. After all, I still have work to do."
Pei Zhen said without any mercy.
"Oh." Jiajia didn't know what to say, so she simply said one word.
Then a silent awkwardness flowed between the two of them.
Pei Zhen brought the shopping bags all the way to front 702.
"Thank you for your help today. This situation won't happen again." Jiajia thanked him politely before placing the shopping bags on the floor three times into the room.
"Thank you, Mr. Pei. Goodbye." After that, Gu Jiajia shut the door with a bang.
Pei Zhen froze once again. This seemed to be the second time he was locked outside the door.
Pei Zhen didn't stay for long and directly drove his car back to the company. In order to pick up Gu Jiajia's company, the meeting was suspended for an hour. Now, he had to rush back to continue the meeting.
On the way back, Pei Zhen received a call from Shao Nanxun.
"Zhen, are you going to play tonight?" The same place. "
"Mm, got it."
When he finished all the work, Pei Zhen realized that it was already an hour away from the scheduled time. When he drove to the old place, his friends were already there.
Shao Nanxun from the Sky Domain Law Firm, Yan Pin, the Young Master of the Pingsheng Group, Nan Jing from Xingjie Studio, and her wife Xingjie. Xingjie was Pei Zhen's cousin.
"The workaholic is only an hour late this time. Come, come, come, get the money!" When Shao Nanxun saw that Pei Zhen had arrived, he asked the people sitting in the hall for the gambling capital.
Pei Zhen was not surprised by Shao Nanxun's reckless behavior. This was not the first time.
"Aiya! Cousin, if only you had come half an hour later! " Xingjie complained about Pei Zhen's early arrival.
Yan Pin very straightforwardly handed over his gambling capital and jokingly said, "I say, Zhen, every time we bet, Old Shao wins. Why is he so familiar with your every move, could it be that you guys … Just as he finished speaking, he was greeted by two pillows that came from different directions.
"Scram!" Pei Zhen gave Yan Pin a word of truth.
Yan Pin naturally wouldn't be able to catch the other one after borrowing a pillow.
"I'm speaking the truth, we are all family. Really, we do not discriminate against you!" Yan Pin continued.
"You are courting death today!" "Old Yan!" Shao Nanxun then rushed over to Yan Pin, who was laughing heartily at the side, and the two of them instantly fell into a heated argument.
Amongst the five people present, only Yan Pin did not know that Pei Zhen was already married. If Yan Pin knew about this, he could guarantee that all of Ning City would know that Young Master Pei was married tomorrow. So all but three of the people involved remained silent.
"That's right, cousin. I heard from grandma that my cousin is back. Give me her cell phone number, and we'll have some fun together. I haven't played with my peers for a long time." Xingjie was coquettish when she asked for Pei Zhen's cell phone number, causing Nan Jing's expression to instantly change. How could his wife act coquettishly to others!
Pei Zhen handed the phone to Xingjie, telling her to find it herself. When Xingjie saw her cousin's comments to her cousin, she was a bit at a loss for words. The name of a direct note made it seem strange.
"I remember, cousin." Xingjie returned the phone to Pei Zhen. Pei Zhen put it away without even looking at it.
Due to the fact that they still had to work tomorrow, the party ended early and they went back to their own homes.
