That night, the roundtable meeting that Pei Huai partic.i.p.ated in lasted for more than six hours. It lasted from night until four in the morning.
The tyc.o.o.ns from all over the world were all ruthless people. They did not have jet lag or need rest, as if their brains could always operate at high speed.
The a.s.sistants also had a special waiting room. Usually, they would accompany their CEO and chairman during meetings, but for a highly confidential meeting like today, each big shot could only bring one a.s.sistant into the meeting room.
Some did not bring a single person, such as Pei Huai. Shen Mu was also waiting in the waiting room next door. It was not that Pei Huai did not trust him, but he did not need him.
The specially trained waiters served them carefully. If the people attending the meeting today were in a bad mood, they could easily trigger a worldwide financial crisis.
The big shots left the meeting room at four in the morning, but they could still discuss things clearly.
Pei Huai was the majority of the people who wanted to talk to him. It had been more than a year since they last saw Pei Huai in this kind of international conference. He used to be a regular here.
Pei Huai responded with ease, switching between the languages of the various countries without any issue.
The big shots split up and left in the elevator. Shen Mu then found his boss.
“Boss, do you have a suitable candidate?” He asked carefully.
His CEO had come to this meeting today for another purpose, to find the best candidate for their project.
There were people with strength, power, and prestige in today’s meeting. However, Pei Huai’s gaze landed on another person, the youngest visitor to the meeting today..
Shen Mu looked in the same direction.
“F * Ck.” A young man in fancy clothes was holding a phone in his hand. He had lost five games in a row because the signal was blocked in the meeting room. At this moment, he was angry at his special a.s.sistant.
Shen Mu had heard of that person before. The other big shots could come to today’s meeting either because of their prominent family backgrounds or because of their own ability. Only he was a pure gambler. A few years ago, he appeared in Continent o’s business world. He thought that he was just an ignorant and incompetent second-generation heir. However, in just a few years, he had used his undisciplined style to defeat his old master and successfully stirred up a storm.
Although no one questioned his qualifications to attend the meeting today, it was obvious that he was not well-liked. No one came to talk to him after the meeting ended, but he did not care. In contrast, he was more concerned about his game’s results.
Shen Mu could not help but frown. “No way. You want to…”
Pei Huai did not show any emotion. No one could guess what he was planning.
He didn’t lack financial support or information sources for this collaboration. He just needed a bold partner.
It was morning on Su Ji’s side. While she was having breakfast, she scrolled through Pei Huai’s new post yesterday.
She was going to ignore it, but seeing that no one had commented on it and liked it, she felt pity. She returned to it and liked it.
Soon, a new reply appeared on her Moments. Pei Huai replied in the comments.
[ “You’re awake?” ]
He did not @ her. Su Ji frowned and replied.
[ “You’re asking me?” ]
[ “Who else?” ]
What Su Ji did not know was that Pei Huai’s post was only visible to her.
She raised her eyebrows. It was five o’clock in the morning. [ “Yes. Did you just wake up or did you not sleep?” ]
[ “I didn’t sleep. Let’s video call.” ]
Su Ji did not refuse. The video call invitation popped up half a minute later.
The screen connected. The man was in the car returning to the hotel. It was late in the winter, and the moon was still shining outside the window.
The journey back home through the stars and the moon.
It was a twenty-minute drive back to the hotel, but Su Ji video chatted with him for twenty minutes.
When the video ended, Su Ji finished her breakfast.
She also posted a screenshot of a clock on her phone that showed the time difference and local time. She didn’t say anything else, but it was worth a thousand words.
She didn’t know that she could choose who could see and who couldn’t see her WeChat Moments. Her posts were always visible to everyone. Soon, there were more than ten likes and dozens of replies.
Even Lian Zi replied.
Today was Lian Zi’s day off, so it was rare that she didn’t have any work arranged for her.
[ “CEO Pei went to Continent O too?” ]
[ “What’s going on? Is Continent O a popular travel destination recently?” ]
Su Ji noticed the word “too”.
[ “He is on a business trip.” ]
[ “Ah, he should have brought you with him.” ]
[ “There are others who went to Continent O?” ]
[ “It’s Ji Xi. She went there some time ago and hasn’t come back yet…” ]
A few hours later, Jiang Chu arrived at the private hospital he had made an appointment with.
The environment was quiet, the privacy was good, and the service was excellent.
He wasn’t wearing a wig today. He was dressed in a man’s outfit, a very fashionable one.
He was also very eye-catching in men’s clothes. When he went to the physical examination center to print the procedure sheet, he attracted the attention of many locals.
There were even people who came to ask him for his phone number, but he rejected them on the grounds that he did not understand the language.
He acted very naturally. He was tall, thin, and had a bright and innocent smile like a little puppy.
However, when he turned around to the front desk for a medical consultation, he spoke the language fluently.
Two hours had pa.s.sed after the series of physical examinations were completed. He received all the reports and found that his doctor was on the ninth floor.
He took the elevator and was about to press the b.u.t.ton when a few more people came in.
Some of them had tried to hit on him before. Jiang Chu was afraid of trouble, so he hid behind a few tall men who looked like bodyguards.
The elevator stopped at a few floors. When the people who tried to hit on him got off the elevator, Jiang Chu realized that the elevator had already pa.s.sed the ninth floor and went to the tenth floor, which was the floor of the bodyguards in front of him.
The elevator was slow, and Jiang Chu didn’t want to wait any longer. He decided to get off on the tenth floor, as it might be faster to go to the ninth floor.
However, as soon as he took a step forward, the bodyguards gestured at him to stop.
? Jiang Chu.
The bodyguard spoke fluently. “The tenth floor is an exclusive ward. Outsiders are not allowed to visit.’
Jiang Chu looked behind the bodyguards. The tenth floor was the same as the other VIP rooms. There were seven or eight rooms on each floor, but from the bodyguards’ words, someone had booked the entire floor?
Knowing how expensive the VIP ward in this private hospital was, he knew how exaggerated it was to book an entire floor.
In order to prevent the news of him cross-dressing from being leaked, Jiang Chu had went to the most expensive private hospital in Beijing!
