Chapter 556: Don’t Worry, I Won’t Ask Someone Else
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The door of the meeting room was tightly shut, and it looked like it wouldn’t end anytime soon.
Cao Zhuzhu had a lollipop in her mouth. The new dragon fruit flavor was really disgusting.
She stood facing the window in the corridor, scrolling through the entertainment news on her phone.
It wasnt out of interest, but purely out of professional necessity.
Her long hair was pushed to the side, and a few strands of hair hung down from her forehead, making her face look especially delicate and cold.
The curve of the back of her neck was very beautiful from the side.
The thick coat covered her good figure, but occasionally, she would lift the coat and put her hand into her pocket and reveal her slender waist.
She only stood in the corridor for half an hour, and the staff members in the company had basically started talking about her.
She read all the trending news of the past three days. Cao Zhuzhu shifted her weight.
Her expression gradually became impatient.
After waiting for another fifteen minutes, she suddenly received a message from someone.
Pei Song, “let’s have lunch together?”
Recently, the two of them had been quite busy and had not seen each other much. Cao Zhuzhu did not take the initiative to contact Pei Song. Every time, he was the one who messaged her.
Yes, they added each other on WeChat when Pei Song brought Cao Zhuzhu back to her apartment for the first time. When she returned to her dormitory the next day, she found that she had an additional WeChat contact named “Pei
Song”. He had even shamelessly added a star next to his name!
Cao Zhuzhu did not expect Pei Song to contact her. Usually, when she was busy with her part-time job, she really did not have time to think about other things. After “Cohabitation”, she signed a contract with Blue Whale, and there would be jobs coming up.
Ren Guanghua wanted to sign all the female artistes who had a good relationship with Ms. Su so that it would be easier for them to work together in the future.
However, every time Pei Song sent a message…she replied immediately.
At this moment, Cao Zhuzhu suddenly noticed this as she looked at her phone.
She was about to reply, but decided to ignore him for a while.
Three minutes later, he sent a second message.
Pei Song: “busy?”
He sounded casual. It was as if it didn’t matter if she said yes or not.
Cao Zhuzhu was annoyed.
She felt that there was no point in ignoring him. She couldn’t beat him at all.
Was it because of the age difference?
After thinking about it, she replied.
[ “Yes.” ]
[ “You’re free?” ]
She wanted to mock him.
As soon as she replied, it showed that he was typing.
From the looks of it, he seemed to have been waiting for her reply.
Cao Zhuzhu felt that she was very smart, but she just could not understand Pei Song.
While she was in a dilemma, he replied.
[ Pei Song: “Whether I’m free or not depends on you.” ] Cao Zhuzhu pursed her lips and continued to reply.
[ Zhu Zhu: “Not today. Go ask someone else.” ]
She planned to spend the whole day fighting with Old Li. She had no time or mood for lunch, and more importantly…it felt great to reject the second master of the Pei family for the first time!
His life was too smooth and lacked some setbacks.
[ Pei Song: “Alright, then I don’t have to rush to end this meeting.” ]
Initially, after this message was sent, the two of them knew that that was the end of the conversation.
However, Pei Song seemed to have realized something and continued.
[ Pei Song: “Don’t worry, I won’t ask anyone else.” ] [ Pei Song: “I’ll wait until you’re not busy.” ]
Cao Zhuzhu: ‘
Looking back at the previous three messages, she added the last bit “go ask someone else” casually, but after Pei Song said that, it sounded like she was testing him.
After calming down for a few seconds, she did not reply to the message. She turned off the screen and slid her phone into her pocket. She tilted her neck back and let out a long breath.
They were taking a long time…
Should she still wait?
At the same time, in the office behind Cao Zhuzhu, the man who had just sent her a WeChat message was sitting opposite Old Li, only separated by a wall…
Pei Song, the big client, looked at the phone for a while. After confirming that there was no reply, he put it aside.
Old Li saw that he had finally put down his phone and quickly took advantage of the opportunity. He had a flattering look on his face as his chubby hands rubbed together nervously. “Boss Pei, I really didn’t expect you to come personally today. But since you came, you should be interested in our company’s advertising plan, right? Don’t torture me anymore! We have been established for ten years. We have integrity. Don’t worry, as long as you leave the advertising of Huichun Hall to us, we will increase your sales by at least 30% in less than half a year!”
He said pa.s.sionately, showing three fingers and carefully confirming the number before extending it to Pei Song.
The reason he came personally today was definitely not because he was interested in the advertising plan. In fact, he did not need to personally handle these things. He had never even seen the so-called plan.
The manager was supposed to be the one to discuss this matter, but this morning, he suddenly called him to ask for leave. He said that because he accidentally broke his wife’s two bottles of cream last night and she ran away from home in a fit of anger. He was now kneeling on the washing board at his father-in-law’s house.
If Pei Song remembered correctly, he was speechless until the manager hung up.
Later, he had no choice but to come.
He sat with his long legs crossed and looked very lazy. He put his index finger and middle finger together and hooked them at Boss Li.
Boss Li’s eyes lit up. He quickly handed over the contract and a copy that he had prepared earlier.
He flipped to the last page of the two copies and tapped on it impatiently. “Here it is. Boss Pei, you just have to sign here!”
Pei Song took a casual glance and scoffed. “The contract is quite short.”
Boss Li smiled and tried to curry favor with him. “Boss Pei is a straightforward person. We need to be honest when doing business. There’s no need to be as complicated as other companies, right?”
Pei Song laughed but did not mind. After all, this was indeed a very unimportant matter to him.
He opened the pen cap and signed.
Just as he was about to sign, the office door was suddenly pushed open.
Then, another contract brushed past his cheek and flew to the table in front of him.
A fair and beautiful hand pressed down on it.
It was very imposing.
“Li Dagang! If you don’t pay me 90,000 yuan today, don’t even think about signing the contract! “
