[ “My heart aches for my baby. She’s being interrogated by her boss again!” ]
[ “I would like to visit the boss’!” ]
[ “Am I the only one who is wondering, is it really possible to talk about business in this pitch-black tent?” ]
[ “With CEO’s cold face, what else can they talk about other than work? Love?” ]
Other than Li Shuguo, all the guests narrowed their eyes.
Li Shuguo patted Su Ji. “Don’t be nervous. CEO Pei is a reasonable person.”
The other guests: ‘
Su Yi coughed lightly. “Since you said so, then I’ll…go…”
Then, Su Ji entered the tent and Pei Huai zipped up the tent.
He didn’t give anyone a chance to peek.
Nan Miaomiao said half-jokingly, “CEO Pei, please lower your voice when you’re talking about business. You don’t want to leak any business secrets.”
Lu Shang glanced at her. “So sour.
“Ah?” Nan Miaomiao didn’t understand what she meant.
The other guests returned to their beds.
At night, the island was cold and windy. Although they had set up a barrier today, there were still three sides that were exposed.
People are really strange. They were clearly happy about their living environment getting better this morning, but when they compared themselves to CEO Pei’s luxurious tent today, they instantly felt that theirs was too shabby!
However, they had access to the Internet because of CEO Pei, so they couldn’t complain.
Xiao Ken finally connected to the Internet and started a game.
Tonight, he played the game very fiercely. He was especially ruthless and a little impatient.
Especially when he saw the tent shake from the corner of his eye, he immediately unleashed his ult, torturing the opponent until he was pierced by thousands of arrows!
Casar browsed through the stock market, and then his face turned green…
Could it fall even more?
Casar kept grinding a cigarette between his lips. He wasn’t afraid of losing money in stocks. If he could use this time on the island to win the project with the Pei Corporation, then this month would be worth it!
The women were sending messages to their managers or telling their families that they were safe.
Ji Xi typed on the keyboard with a focused expression. [ “It must be great to be Ji Xi’s manager!” ]
However, Ji Xi’s manager…did not receive any news from her.
Su Ji was probably not coming back tonight. Nan Miaomiao occupied two beds and rolled around for a while. She felt bored and buried her face in the pillow.
That was strange.
Lu Shang said that she was jealous, but she also felt that she was jealous.
But who was she jealous of?
She did not even like CEO Pei?
Sonya patted her shoulder. “What are you thinking about?”
Nan Miaomiao’s voice came out from the pillow, sounding m.u.f.fled. “I want to be in a relationship.”
Sonya:
She understood that she had been provoked.
“Be careful in case the drone hears you,” Sonya said, “didn’t we agree? What is the point of dating? Career is the most important thing.”
Nan Miaomiao turned her face to look at her. “Can’t we do both?”
Sonya frowned. She didn’t know why she suddenly had so many rebellious thoughts recently. In the past, when she mentioned this, they would agree with each other.
Sonya glanced at the drone and lowered her voice. “I’m the best example. Do you want to be like me?
Nan Miaomiao pursed her lips. “But Su Ji is also in a relationship, and her career hasn’t been affected.”
Sonya choked and her frustration surged in her heart. “Then you can ask her for advice. I can’t help you.”
Nan Miaomiao: ‘
In order to protect the privacy of the guests, the drones basically hovered at high alt.i.tudes at night, taking pictures of the night scene.
It looked peaceful on screen.
The strange cries of birds pierced through the sky.
[ “With the internet, everyone will instantly become an internet addict again!” ]
[ “The camp is so quiet tonight!” ]
[ “By the way, are they not done talking?” ]
A few minutes later, the livestream ended. The netizens had no idea when or if Su Ji came out of the tent.
In the small house, Duan Shengquan pointed at the last scene of the livestream and asked Li Fang, “are you sure that Boss Pei only took one suitcase???”
Li Fang nodded. “Yes.”
Duan Shengquan’s face was filled with shock. “A suitcase can actually hold so many things? Even a tent and a satellite communication system?”
Li Fang narrowed her eyes and thought to herself, “isn’t this your fault?”
She didn’t say it out loud, but Duan Shengquan could tell from her expression.
And Li Fang could tell from his expression that he had already figured out what she was thinking…
After two seconds of awkwvardness, Li Fang coughed. “I’ll go back to work. Call me if there’s anything!”
The next morning, before the live stream started, Su Ji came out of the tent.
She rubbed her shoulders and neck. She was used to sleeping on a hard bed for the past two days. She was still a little unused to sleeping in a soft tent last night.
Pei Huai’s low and hoa.r.s.e voice came out from inside. “It’s early. Sleep a little longer.”
Su Ji looked back at him. The morning light shone from behind her, making her hair look charred. “You should get up early too. I have other plans today.”
After saying that, she smiled. Her smile blended into the morning glow. “Thank you for your hospitality last night-
Casar, who had woken up and was drinking water, almost choked to death by her words.
“You, you guys…”
Su Ji gave him a strange look. “What about us?”
At this moment, Pei Huai tidied up his clothes and came out of the tent. He gestured for Su Ji to go and do her work while he took the cleaning supplies and walked to Casar’s side. “Delete the mental images in your mind. We didn’t do anything last night. She thanked me for letting her sleep in the tent.”
“Yeah, right.” Casar obviously did not believe him. “You came all the way to the island. A man and a woman staying in a tent together for the entire night. Can you control yourselves?” Pei Huai slowly washed his hands. “This is why she’s my girl, not yours.” “What do you mean?”
“I care about her,” Pei Huai said, “I will endure it even if I can’t help it. The environment on the island is tough. I just want her to eat and stay warm. Then, I will accompany her until she wants to leave and bring her home.”
Casar:
After hearing this, he felt that he was a sc.u.mbag.
Before breakfast, Su Ji met with w.a.n.g Yi.
Even though he had to collect wood, he could not pretend not to see the dangers lurking on the island. It was time to resolve the volcano issue…
