Chapter 254: 279

279 Meeting the Parents

“Why do you ask?” Su Ji picked up her bag and looked at him, “you’re not sick.”

It was not a question, but a statement.

Xu Ni didn’t know why, but he felt as if she had seen through him. He immediately looked back at his phone. “Of course I’m not sick.”

He thought that Su Ji was going to leave, but she didn’t. Su Ji walked to his side and asked, “one of your family members is? ”

Xu Ni’s hand that was holding the phone paused. He obviously didn’t want to tell her, “no.”

Su Ji did not ask further.

“I’m only giving my underlings special treatment.”

Xu Ni looked at her.

He paused for a moment, but he didn’t say anything.

Han Junlei called out to Su Ji when she was about to leave.

He and Huang Huayu stood in front of a few cars, looking very happy. After calling Su Ji over, he pointed to the brand new cars that cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. They looked beautiful. “Su Ji, the cars are provided for us. I’m thinking of giving you one so that your manager can pick you up for work easily.”

“Oh…” Su Ji’s heart wavered for a second, but then she remembered that Pei Huai didn’t allow her to drive. She happened to see Pei Huai’s car outside. “Give it to the others. I already have a car.”

Han Junlei said, “I see. Alright then.”

Huang Huayu scratched his head. She didn’t want it?

“Director Han, Assistant Director Huang.”

The two of them looked at her at the same time.

Su Ji walked towards the car outside and waved at them, “Happy New Year.”

The two of them smiled at the same time.

However, Huang Huayu suddenly remembered something. Su Ji said that she had a car. What brand was it?

He had not noticed it before.

He took a few steps forward, and a black car appeared.

He saw Su Ji get into the car.

Then, before he could get close, the car’s low roar sounded, and it reversed a little. Then, it nimbly drove away.

Huang Huayu saw the car clearly when they turned the corner.

In the next second, he was dumbfounded.

A Koenigsegg model that he had never seen before!

“???”

In the car, the driver was leaning back and he drove steadily.

In fact, this car was Pei Song’s. Pei Huai usually did not drive such flashy cars, but a lot of people could recognize his car, so he often took a different car when he came to pick up Su Ji.

“You like this car?”

Pei Huai asked Su Ji when her gaze fell on the control panel.

Su Ji replied, “I can’t drive it. There’s no point even if I do.”

Pei Huai smiled, “practice a bit more.”

**

The car drove into the Xu family’s house, and the door rotated up. Su Ji picked up her backpack and got out of the car, only to see Pei Huai go around to the back.

Just as she was feeling puzzled, she saw him take out a few boxes of gifts from behind.

“Didn’t my mom say that you don’t need to bring anything?” Su Ji asked.

Pei Huai said with a smile, “she said that because she was being considerate, but I always do it out of courtesy.”

Su Ji looked at the smile on his face and felt as if he was saying she was too naive.

Su Ji recalled the past. She had wisdom, courage, and insight, but she did not like to deal with people.

In times of peace, the work of maintaining peace with the neighboring kingdoms was done by the princes and generals.

Now that she thought about it, it seemed that Prince Huai, who she had been neglecting, was the one doing this…

The aroma of food had already drifted over from the kitchen.

They entered the house and Aunt Wu opened the door for them.

Xu Mingzhi sat on the sofa peacefully. She wanted to be aloof, but when she saw Pei Huai carrying a few large boxes in, her expression changed, “why do you bring so many things? Don’t be so polite. Aunt Wu, take them quickly.”

Su Ji looked at her mother’s rapidly changing expression and then at Pei Huai.

Pei Huai was very low-key. After greeting them, he entered the house and washed his hands.

When he was washing his hands, Xu Mingzhi asked Su Ji, “baby, mom was on the phone with Xiaoman yesterday. Xiaoman said that the entire Pei family is a clean freak and wears masks to sleep at night. Is it true?”

Su Ji laughed. Just as she was about to say “no”, she suddenly remembered that she had been tricked by Xu Mingzhi several times before. This time, she had learned her lesson.

A second later, she retracted her smile, “I wouldn’t know.”

Xu Mingzhi gave her a look and leaned back. She smiled, “it’s okay, at least he’s clean.”

At the dining table, Xu Mingzhi took the initiative to ask about the release of the commercial, so that her daughter did not have to pass on the message.

Pei Huai agreed without much thought, “sure, let me know when you’re confirmed. We will work with you.”

Su Ji stood up and was about to pour some water into the teapot. When her hand passed by, Pei Huai grabbed her wrist naturally and gently pulled it away.

Then, he went to get it and poured tea for her and Xu Mingzhi.

The water in the teapot was very hot.

Su Ji touched the side of her wrist. It was a little numb.

Xu Mingzhi saw it all.

She couldn’t find any fault with this man.

He was just slightly older than her daughter.

But that’s nothing.

After eating for a while, Xu Mingzhi seemed to have thought of something. She placed the cutlery on the plate and crossed her fingers over his nose. She looked at Pei Huai and said, “ever since I returned to the country, I’ve observed that Old Master Pei, your eldest sister, and second brother have all taken good care of my daughter. I am very grateful.”

Pei Huai also put down his cutlery. “What would you like to ask me?”

Xu Mingzhi smiled, “I don’t think I’ve heard you talk about your parents before. I’m just asking. It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me.”

Su Ji thought about it and realized that it was true. Back then, Pei Huai’s parents didn’t even appear at Old Master Pei’s birthday party. However, they seemed to have given him a very expensive birthday gift.

She had some impression of it.

Pei Huai had never mentioned his parents to her. Perhaps she had never asked, or perhaps he felt that it was unnecessary.

She took a sip of the soup slowly.

“It’s okay,” Pei Huai said gently. “My parents are in charge of the Pei Corporation’s overseas business, so they stay abroad all year round.”

Xu Mingzhi nodded. “I see. It seems like they are very career-oriented. One can tell from how outstanding you are.”

Pei Huai smiled mysteriously, “I take after my mother.”

Xu Mingzhi replied, “sons take after their mother more than daughters do. Not many daughters take after their mother like my baby…” she gradually stopped treating Pei Huai as an outsider. “It’s just that her father’s genes aren’t good, so mine dominated.”

Pei Huai chuckled, “of course.”

The atmosphere at the dining table gradually became lively, and Aunt Wu served Su Ji a second bowl of rice.

After a while.

Pei Huai looked at Xu Mingzhi again. “They’re coming back for the new year this year. Since you’ve mentioned it, I wonder if you’d like to meet them.”
