C119 Bandits

Now take back all her previous praise of this man, will you?

"Eat."

President Pei didn't realize that his meal was really hard to swallow.

The corner of Ning Xia's mouth twitched. Even if she cried, she still had to finish the food she ordered...

Looking at her aggrieved look, Pei Yichen couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile. This gentle kitten looked like it was going to explode. It looked very cute.

"I'll eat with you."

Pei Yichen sat beside her. Although the sugar was a little too much, the overall taste was not unacceptable.

Ning Xia pursed her lips and clicked her tongue. She had never thought that President Pei would be able to accept this uncooked braised pork. It seemed like he wasn't living as comfortably as she had imagined.

"Mmm, it's still okay ~"

Ning Xia took a sip and nodded her head in appreciation. Although her taste was a bit heavy, it was not to the point where she could not accept it.

"You like it?" Pei Yichen raised his eyebrows. "Then I'll cook it for you every day."

Ning Xia:... ""

F * ck, isn't it a joke for me to eat this every day?

"Hm?"

Pei Yichen looked at her from the side of his face. The ending of his voice was slightly raised, carrying obvious mockery.

Ning Xia felt like a flock of crows were flying over her head. "Hey, President Pei, I'm a girl. I still need to lose weight. I can't eat too much."

"After you finish eating, I promise you."

Pei Yichen's words instantly lit up Ning Xia's eyes. In the next second, she stuffed the braised pork into her mouth one by one. Although it was so sweet that it made people feel sick of it, she felt that she could still persist for the sake of her best friend!

After finishing the last piece of braised pork, Ning Xia looked at Pei Yichen again and felt like puking.

"If you're done eating, can you help my best friend?"

She was actually still thinking about her best friend at this moment!

Seemed like this Braised Pork with Soy Sauce wasn't enough.

Ning Xia saw that his face was dark and thought that he was going to go back on his word again, so she couldn't help but twitch her lips. He was such a big man, yet he actually went back on his word. It really made people speechless.

"Pei Yichen, are you a man? Why did you go back on your word?"

Ning Xia couldn't help but shout. However, what she received was a cold look from Pei Yichen. "Am I right? You don't know?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you are. That man is a real man. He keeps his promises. Don't go back on your word!"

Pei Yichen sighed helplessly. "Alright, hurry up and go to sleep, or I'll go back on my word."

Ning Xia:... ""

Let yourself sleep when you're done, President Pei. Where's your pig?

"Alright, I'll go rest now. You must not forget about my best friend!"

"I will let Shen Heng handle this matter." Pei Yichen nodded helplessly. Looking at the back of this little girl, he curled his lips slightly. There was a bond in his heart that made him feel very different.

Hearing Pei Yichen's promise, Ning Xia was finally relieved. She skipped back to her room to rest. It was a kind of happiness to be able to help her best friend.

When Ning Xia woke up again, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

She looked at her phone that kept ringing and immediately became much more clear-headed. "Qingfeng, what's wrong?"

"Ning Xia, thank you. President Pei's assistant called Tina and said that it was all thanks to you that I would be involved in this design. Thank you, Ning Xia."

Yin Qingfeng was really happy. She would definitely seize this opportunity!

When Ning Xia heard this, she was also happy for her friend. No matter what, as long as Qingfeng could go smoothly, everything would be fine.

It seemed like Pei Yichen was still a man who kept his word.

"Mmm, when you're done, I'll prepare a celebratory feast for you."

The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up. Ning Xia stretched. She had slept long enough.

It was completely dark outside. The huge manor was empty.

Pei Yichen did not like the bustle, so all the maids here got off work at 6: 00. They would go back to their own residences.

Ning Xia suddenly felt a little scared. She got up to turn on the light in the room, but she still felt that it was not enough. She walked out again and prepared to turn on the lights in the living room, but before she reached the living room, her body froze.

Next to her room was the room where Pei Yichen once lived. In that room, there was the sound of something being rummaged through...

Someone's here!

Was it a thief?

Ning Xia's uncontrollable body began to tremble.

Did the other party think that there was no one in the house?

If she rushed out now, would she...

Ning Xia did not dare to continue thinking. Instead, she tried her best to calm herself down. She tiptoed back to her room and quickly closed all the windows and locked the door. She felt that her heart was racing and she could barely breathe.

She quickly dialed Pei Yichen's number, but he could not get through. She was scared, but she did not dare to make a sound.

"Clang -"

The other party seemed to have realized that there was another person in the room who was already knocking on the door. Ning Xia stared at the locked door in horror, silently praying that the quality of the door must be better. The other party was coming aggressively, would he kill them to silence them?

Damn Pei Yichen, why didn't you answer the phone at the critical moment?

The noise lasted for more than ten minutes. The outside was quiet, but Ning Xia was tense and did not dare to relax. She called Pei Yichen again and again.

"Hello?"

Finally, the phone finally got through. Pei Yichen's deep voice was heard. Ning Xia felt like she had someone to rely on. "Chen, it seems like a thief has come to our house. Can you come back quickly? I'm afraid of you alone."

Bang!

The sound of metal hitting metal was exceptionally loud this time. That person was momentarily silent. He did not leave, nor did he give up. Instead, he found a tool and smashed the door even harder. It was as if he would not stop until he smashed the door open!

Ning Xia hid in a corner of the room. "Chen, I..."

"Wait for me!"

Pei Yichen looked at the people in the meeting room. "The meeting will continue tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he had already arrived at the door of the conference room. He quickly disappeared from everyone's line of sight, leaving the shareholders and senior executives in the room to look at each other in dismay. For a moment, they did not know what was going on.

Only Lin Dengke frowned, feeling that something was not right. He looked at Shen Heng, who also did not know what was going on, and pulled him aside to ask, "Is this Ning Xia's phone number?"

Shen Heng nodded. During President Pei's meeting, his phone was given to him for safekeeping. He did not answer any calls, so he did not pay any attention to Ning Xia's calls.
