C4 How to Reimburse?

Ning Xia, who was wearing the same indoor clothes that she hadn't washed in the past two days and had added two water stains on them ten minutes ago, was 'invited' downstairs by Shen Heng.

Downstairs, there was a Rolls-Royce Phantom Shadow. The window opened slowly, revealing Pei Yichen's devilish features. There was a frosty expression on his face that made Ning Xia hug herself from the cold.

Seeing Ning Xia, his brows wrinkled. "Get on."

"Yes."

Ning Xia subconsciously straightened her body and respectfully nodded her head. She was just short of saluting. This scene almost made Shen Heng, who was standing beside her, unable to hold back his laughter.

Only after they got on the car did Ning Xia react, "President Pei, where are we going?"

She felt a sense of inferiority sitting in the car dressed like this!

The heck, if he were to look for her, shouldn't he just inform her beforehand?

"Carve this phone number into your mind!"

Pei Yichen coldly spat those words causing her to be confused. Ning Xia hesitated for two seconds before she reacted and screamed at Shen Heng who was driving, "Stop! "Assistant Shen, stop the car. I didn't take my cell phone nor my key!"

She was brought out by Shen Heng the moment she opened the door. She didn't even bring the key, so what if she couldn't go back in?

"How stupid!"

Pei Yichen was very discontent with her shouting. She missed his main point completely!

Ning Xia berated him in a low voice but didn't have the courage to speak loudly. She looked at Shen Heng through the rearview mirror with a pitiful expression.

She didn't have a single cent in her pocket, just in case President Pei threw her out halfway, or in some deserted place …

In just an instant, she had thought of countless possibilities.

Forget it, since ancient times who doesn't die? Everyone dies sooner or later!

"Miss Ning Xia, even if you go back now, you won't be able to open the door, right? Don't fret, tonight is President Pei's welcoming banquet, so I need you as my assistant to help me identify the people."

After all, they had just returned and didn't really know many of the country's upper echelons and business associates.

"Oh, okay."

Ning Xia felt like crying without tears. She turned to look at the quiet man, feeling furious. However, when she saw that icy face, she instantly became terrified.

Squeezing the corner of her shirt, Ning Xia was very cautious. She felt that if she stayed in the same space as Pei Yichen, she could fall apart at any moment.

"That's not right. President Pei, don't tell me you want me to wear this to your welcome feast. It would be embarrassing if I stood by your side like this."

Heavens, if she showed such an image in front of the higher-ups today, there was no doubt that she would be fired tomorrow just because she stepped into the company with the left or right foot first!

"So what?"

Pei Yichen calmly looked at the collapsed Ning Xia. This woman actually hung up his phone. She was really taking a different approach!

So — What?

Ning Xia repeated his words in her heart. She really wanted to rush over and beat this lunatic up, but as soon as she saw his ice-cold eyes, her aura was instantly frozen.

"How about this, President Pei. If you pass by a shop or something, I'll borrow some money. I'll change my clothes and return it to you tomorrow after work, okay?"

As the CEO, how could he be unwilling to lend out such a small amount of money?

When Pei Yichen heard this, he slightly raised his brows. Looking at Ning Xia's pitiful expression, he smiled suddenly, "Alright."

Ning Xia was stunned. She never thought that this iceberg-like man would have such a beautiful smile. He said "alright" to her. It was as if all her resentment had vanished like smoke in thin air.

The temperature inside the car seemed to rise abruptly. Ning Xia felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She quickly averted her gaze, afraid that she would lose herself in his eyes.

A hint of disgust flashed across Pei Yichen's eyes, "Let's go to Owen."

Having received the order, Shen Heng turned around and looked at Ning Xia from the rearview mirror with some sympathy. Some people are going to have bad luck ~

Owen?

When Ning Xia heard this name, she felt that it was somewhat familiar. However, she couldn't think of where she had heard this name before.

The car drove steadily until it reached the entrance of a beauty parlor. Immediately, someone received them and led them to a private room upstairs.

"President Pei, it's been a while. What do you need today?"

The moment Owen opened his mouth, Ning Xia got goosebumps all over her body. If Owen wasn't a man, she would have thought that he was one who was entertaining guests in ancient times …

"You have half an hour to change her appearance!"

Pei Yichen spat those words and went straight to the VIP lounge outside. It seemed that staying here for even a second longer would make him very uncomfortable.

"Sigh, President Pei …"

Before Ning Xia finished speaking, Pei Yichen already disappeared completely.

"Little sister, what style do you prefer?"

Owen revealed a smile that he thought was very amiable.

Ning Xia's mouth twitched. "The simpler it is, the better …"
