C25 The Ultimatum

Pei Luoluo held the bag with both hands and held it against her head. She hurriedly ran towards him. Taking advantage of the traffic jam, she opened the car door and sat on it.

"Why are you free today?" Pei Luoluo took out a tissue to wipe the rain off her body and casually asked.

"I went to the provincial chain store to check on it a while ago and only came back after I was busy. It just so happens that it is time for you to get off work, by the way." Zhao Haoxun stared at the road in front of him, which was blocked by traffic, and there was a hint of impatience between his brows.

"It has always been very congested when you get off work. Moreover, this road is an old Taoist. It's quite annoying to encounter rain again."

Zhao Haoxun hit the brakes again. He calmed himself down and turned his face to her and said helplessly, "I didn't say anything..."

"It's all written on my face." Pei Luoluo smiled and shrugged. Zhao Haoxun also knew that his mood was a little over the top. He did not say anything more and focused on driving.

However, the traffic jam itself would cause people to feel disgusted and anxious, and no one could avoid it. Thus, after a while, Zhao Haoxun finally couldn't take it anymore. He parked the car at the entrance of a restaurant that had a very unique layout.

Pei Luoluo looked up and saw that this restaurant was called Dream Theme Restaurant. It was made of deep purple and the names were all pieced together with crystals of different sizes. It was very interesting and attractive. Pei Luoluo could not help but lower her head and think about it. Usually, she would pass by this shop when she went to and fro. Why did it seem like she had never seen it before?

"Are you hungry? Let's go! "Zhao Haoxun got out of the car and went around the front of the car to open the door for Pei Luoluo, who was sitting in the front passenger seat.

The driver, who was guarding the car outside, saw his actions and waved at him from afar, indicating that he could not stop the car here. Zhao Haoxun pretended not to see it and pulled Pei Luoluo into the restaurant.

"I want the parking space at the entrance before I finish eating! Just swipe it." After saying that, Zhao Haoxun took out a gold card and placed it in front of the cashier. He brought Pei Luoluo to the innermost position.

"Sir, I'm sorry. We can't park in front of our door." The person who spoke to them was wearing a uniform with the manager's brand on his chest.

Zhao Haoxun ignored the other person's words and looked at the menu without even raising his head. "The password is 77520. If there's nothing else, please don't disturb me and this lady eating. Otherwise, I will let you leave here right now."

"Sorry, manager. My friend is not in a good mood today. Well, if it really doesn't work, we will leave now. I'm sorry to trouble you... " Pei Luoluo did not know why Zhao Haoxun was so abnormal today. Under such circumstances, she did not want to ask. She could only apologize to the manager first.

"Please enjoy your meal"

The manager suddenly raised his eyebrows and bowed so low that they couldn't see him. Pei Luoluo finally understood that the manager really came to ask for the password.

"You really want them to do whatever they want?" Pei Luoluo was somewhat unwilling. If the manager cheated a large sum of money, wouldn't Zhao Haoxun be cheated to death?

"Yes! I really don't want to squeeze around. Besides, I know the boss here. The taste is quite good."

Pei Luoluo still wanted to say something, but the waiter walked over with a smile on his face.

After ordering a few dishes, Zhao Haoxun handed the menu to the waiter. After the waiter left, he looked up and explained to Pei Luoluo.

"Luo Luo, to me, a problem that money can solve is not a problem. If you are worried that I will spend more money, then it will be redundant. When they are farming money, if the number exceeds five digits, their boss will immediately invite them to the office to verify the bill. So, you don't have to worry. Before doing anything, I have already considered it in my heart. Besides, I'm not in a good mood today..."

Before Zhao Haoxun could finish, the phone in Pei Luoluo's bag started singing.

"Pig head, pig head, pig tail. He's a good kid who's not picky about food. He sleeps until after sunbathing every day and never brush his teeth..." When the bell rang, Pei Luoluo's face instantly stiffened. The corner of her mouth twitched slightly as she looked at Zhao Haoxun.

"You answer the phone first." Zhao Haoxun nodded at her. He picked up the red wine on the table and leaned against the sofa. Pei Luoluo raised her hand and pointed at the bag in embarrassment. She whispered, I'll be right back. She ran out of the restaurant with the bag in her hand.

After calming herself down, Pei Luoluo took out her phone and pressed the answer button without thinking.

"Uh, ___ said. Hello?" The trembling voice that came from her throat startled Pei Luoluo herself.

"I will give you two minutes. Get out here right now!" The voice on the other end of the computer was cold and piercing, instantly making Pei Luoluo's back feel cold.

"Ah? I, I am outside!" Pei Luoluo subconsciously looked around and her heart was in her throat.

"Is that so?" Feeling the voice approaching, Pei Luoluo suddenly turned her head and bumped into the pair of deep eyes staring at her coldly, as if to see through her thoughts and see if she was lying at all.

"Pei Luoluo, I found that I cannot be merciful to you!" Xiao Yichen's cold and handsome face slowly moved closer to Pei Luoluo's face. Suddenly, it was very close. Pei Luoluo could not escape. It could be said that she did not want to escape. She stared straight at the pair of deep black eyes.

"Xiao..." Pei Luoluo had just opened her mouth when Xiao Yichen, with a cold expression, grabbed her hand and walked in the opposite direction of the restaurant's entrance.

Behind him, Pei Luoluo saw that her clothes were drenched in the rain. Pei Luoluo pursed her lips and let him pull her arm forward. She wanted to ask where he was going, but judging from the strength of Xiao Yichen's grip on her, now that she was angry, it was better not to say anything.

He followed Xiao Yichen to the crossroad and turned to the right. In the blink of an eye, he saw the familiar Lamborghini.

"You better shut up! I don't want to hear or see you right now!" Xiao Yichen's expression was really unhappy at this moment. He threw Pei Luoluo into the backseat without any politeness.

I didn't say anything to begin with, Pei Luoluo muttered in her heart. The expression on her face did not change much. She just sat quietly at the back.

It's over! Zhao Haoxun is still waiting for me in the restaurant! Pei Luoluo was shocked. She secretly took out her old phone from her bag and sent a message to Zhao Haoxun. She wanted him to eat first and not wait for her. She had something to do and could not return for the time being.

After sending the message, Pei Luoluo felt the atmosphere in the car was a little cold. She looked at the switch on the heater in the car and found that Xiao Yichen had turned it off. No wonder she was so cold.

Pei Luoluo puckered her lips and combed the collar of her coat. She lowered her eyes and looked at the joke that Zhao Haoxun had sent her a few days ago.

"How long have you been with Zhao Haoxun?" Seeing the smile on Pei Luoluo's face from time to time, Xiao Yichen glanced at her from the rearview mirror. He casually took out a cigar and lit it up. He said leisurely.

"How long has it been?" Pei Luoluo suddenly raised her head to look at the pair of eyes that were as indifferent as frost. At this moment, she was staring at her coldly from the rearview mirror.
