C27 He Does Not Admit It

Pei Shijie thought about it for a long time. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. In the end, he chose to dial a phone number that he had saved by accident.

Ning Jing hung up the phone with a smug smile on her face.

A month ago, at the cocktail party, she met Pei Shijie, who was most likely to inherit the Pei Family's fortune. He only pretended to have sprained his ankle, but this man was attracted by her beauty and personally sent her to the car.

She "accidentally" dropped her name card and received a call from him today.

Ah, Ning Xia, what are you so proud of? If you were prettier, you would only be marrying a useless cripple. However, she merely sprained her ankle and caught the hot Pei Shijie. She was a princess and he was a prince. They were a match made in heaven!

Although he had been waiting to see Ning Xia make a fool of herself and pray every day that she would be driven out by the crippled man from the Pei Family, since Ning Xia was still alive and well in the Pei Family, he might as well wait until she married Pei Shijie and became the mistress of the Pei Family. Humph, Ning Xia was still a dog that she had stepped on!

As he was deep in thought, a sports car stopped in front of Ning Jing.

She curled her lips and lifted her chin to watch the man get out of the car.

This car was more than the Ning Family's annual income. If the Ning Family and Pei Family could work together, it would definitely be a great thing for the Ning Family.

Pei Shijie saw Ning Jing's self-satisfied expression and slightly curled his lips. He then opened the passenger door for her in a gentlemanly manner.

Ning Jing got into the car gracefully. She sighed to herself that luxury cars were different. Her father also had a sports car, but it was nothing compared to this.

Her legs were slightly closed, and when she turned around to fasten her seatbelt, her skirt was slightly raised, revealing her slender white legs.

"What do you want to eat?"

Pei Shijie smiled and looked at her. She deliberately lifted a corner of her leg and tilted it slightly to the side. He had seen a lot of such obvious movements that made people think about her.

Ning Jing smiled proudly. "Western cuisine."

Western cuisine was the best way to show a woman's elegance. At the level of the Pei Family, they would definitely want a dignified and elegant mistress.

"By the way, I heard that your sister married my younger cousin?"

He asked without consulting.

Ning Jing curled her lips. Her eyes were full of disdain, but she pretended to be weak. "Sigh, my poor adopted sister. She married Pei young master just like that. I thought she was going to break off her relationship with the Ning Family. We have no other choice. We just have to follow her lead."

Looking at her thoughtful expression, Pei Shijie curled his lips. "Speaking of which, I haven't seen your sister since the wedding."

"I really don't know her. Although we grew up together, we have completely different personalities. She was expelled from college because of cheating. After that, she never went home again. Perhaps, she was out in the wild."

Pei Shijie lowered his eyes and covered the doubts in his heart. Could it be that Second Miss from the Ning Family disappeared after she got married? She didn't even meet Pei Yichen, let alone live in the Pei Family?

That made sense. Why did Pei Yichen pick up his assistant so openly?

Although he could not bring his original wife over to ruin Pei Yichen's lifestyle, it would be interesting if Ning Xia knew that he was being played.

"What's your sister's name?"

Hearing his words, Ning Jing frowned. She was a little displeased. "Mr. Pei, if you're looking for my sister today, I'll go back first."

As he spoke, he placed his hand on the car door. A man, if you don't give me some temper, do you really think I'm easy to fool?

Pei Shijie curled his lips. This Ning Jing was really interesting. In that case, let's have some fun ~

"Alright, my big miss, I was wrong, okay? Let's go, I'll bring you to eat something good. I'll walk around with you in the afternoon."

When Ning Jing heard his sincere apology, she curled her lips in satisfaction. "Alright, it depends on your performance ~"

On the 66th floor.

Ning Xia was bored to death as she sat in the CEO's office.

After another half a day and a night, she would have to face the people of Pei Family. She felt a little restless.

Thinking about her studies that had been delayed due to her busy schedule, she frowned. Since she had so much free time now, why not do something that she wanted to do?

Ning Xia had always been an action-oriented person. She immediately called her best friend and asked her to make a list of books for herself. Then, she made a list online.

After finishing all this, it was almost time to get off work. Ning Xia started to feel melancholic again.

Pei Yichen, who had been busy in his office, finally looked up from his documents. Through the glass, he saw the petite figure. His lips unconsciously curled up.

Ning Xia seemed to be upset about something. She shook her head and knocked on the table like a chick pecking at rice. Her actions revealed the innocence and cuteness of a young girl.

If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe that Ning Xia was the one chosen by Pei Shijie.

For some reason, he remembered her red dress at the banquet. She was so beautiful that he couldn't breathe. It was hard to associate her with this innocent and cute person.

No matter which side it was, it was deeply attractive to him.

Pei Shijie had won this round.

At least, unlike before, she did not coldly chase away all those who approached her. He wanted to keep this woman by his side.

If he wanted her, she only belonged to him!

Pei Yichen was shocked by his own thoughts. His brows unconsciously furrowed slightly. How could he have such thoughts? He came back to find summer!

Even if she was as innocent as summer, it couldn't possibly be summer!

After everything was settled, he would give Ning Xia a sum of money to get her out of his sight. He would give Xia Tian, a family that did not have a peaceful life. He would not let Xia Tian get involved in the matters of Pei Family, so he had to make good use of Ning Xia now!

"President Pei, I heard from the private investigator that there is still no news about the summer, but on the other side, there is news of Pei Shijie and the young lady of Ning Family being together today."

Shen Heng received the good news, sorted out the important information, and handed it to Pei Yichen.

Pei Yichen nodded. "Pei Shijie has already started the operation. You just need to be prepared. However, send someone to follow him secretly. Don't let him find an opportunity to attack Ning Xia in the future."

Since it was a cooperative relationship, it was only right for him to protect Ning Xia's safety, right?

Pei Yichen quietly found an excuse for himself. He wouldn't admit it at all. It was because this girl was too attractive to him that he would think so much for her.
