My Hubby is a Business Mogul

Gu Xi left not long ago. Lin Yunzhi drove the car to the car park when she noticed a black car nearby.

At that moment, she winded down the car window and looked at Pei Qian.

The reason Lin Yunzhi could recognize him was that he hung out with Gu Xi very closely these days.

It seemed that Gu Xi's little lie was not enough to deceive Pei Qian.

Lin Yunzhi drove the car over and stopped the car.

Pei Qian gestured towards her. Lin Yunzhi hesitated momentarily but got down the car, nevertheless.

Pei Qian opened the side door of his own car and Lin Yunzhi sat in.

The man sitting on the driver's seat made her body shiver, but she pursed her lips and remained quiet.

Song Yazhan on the side just nodded his head.

This small interaction could not escape Pei Qian's eyes. He then pursed his lips and gave a small smile.

"Secretary Lin, long time no see!" Pei Qian was wearing formal attire. His white polo shirt emphasized his handsome look while the golden-colored sleeve buttons made him look even more respectable.

Lin Yunzhi had no interest in appreciating handsome men, and she straightforwardly said, "Since Mr. Pei has invited me for a talk, you are probably aware of my relationship with Gu Xi. Hence, if you want to bribe me, I think it's best if you forget it. Also, if you dare to use or hurt Gu Xi, I will definitely not let you off!"

With that, in a swift motion, she opened the car door and got down.

After she drove her car away, Pei Qian asked Song Yazhan. "Didn't you say she used to pursue you back when you were in university?"

His eyes were filled with suspicion.

'Earlier, she did not even spare you a look.'

Song Yazhan gripped the steering wheel and softly laughed. "Maybe she had a change in taste!"

Lin Yunzhi was never a weak woman and maybe even stronger than Gu Xi.

Because of her family background, she may not be the brightest star, but she was a jewel, nevertheless!

Many years later, the moment Lin Yunzhi rests her head on Shen Che's shoulder, is when Song Yazhan realizes too late that he has feelings for Lin Yunzhi. However, one's tastes were always changing. For when he started to be interested in her, he was a step too late for Shen Che already beat him to it.

Pei Qian laughed as well. In actual fact, how could he bribe Lin Yunzhi? If it was that easy, Lin Yunzhi would not have stayed in the Gu Group for so long!

He merely wanted to notify her that his future actions would make her displeased.

"Let's go," Pei Qian said.

The car slowly drove off to the main road.

The moment Gu Xi entered her office, she started to get busy. Her third secretary, Ke Er, came into her office half an hour later and smiled. "Manager Gu, President Pei called over ten times today. He asked when you would return to the country."

"Just say in a month," she said without a second thought.

Ke Er walked out.

In less than two minutes, she came back again. "Manager Gu, Mr. Pei… wants your address."

Gu Xi glared at her. Ke Er's voice got softer and softer as she guiltily said, "President Pei said… he wanted to accompany you… for a month."

Gu Xi knew that he was hinting her that if she continued to hide from him, he would tell the whole world about their agreement!

"Tell him that I will personally call him after I'm done with my work," Gu Xi helplessly said.

Ke Er finally relaxed. Haish…

When she proceeded out, Gu Xi finally received a peaceful silence.

In the afternoon, she called Pei Qian.

Pei Qian leaned against the sofa and tugged on his tie. "Miss Gu, your actions are seriously going against our contract…"

Gu Xi replied in a low voice, "Then what do you think I should do?"

"You can look at clause 103. If Miss Gu's problem affects my right of enjoyment…" He seductively emphasized the last few words.

Gu Xi gritted her teeth.

"If that's the case, then it will just prolong our contract!" He laughed in a deep voice. "So, Miss Gu, by doing this, it has no effect… and I can even sue you for deliberately breaking the contract!"

Gu Xi felt a headache coming on when she heard those words. How could he sue her with this sort of matter? Telling others that she, Gu Xi, climbed into his bed in exchange for ten billion?

Pei Qian finished his words and smiled. "So, when are you going to be back?"

Gu Xi gritted her teeth. "The day after tomorrow! I will return to City B!"

Pei Qian was not an insensible man. She suffered a big blow from Qin Mo's incident and probably did not want to face it at the moment, thus he did not press her further. "Okay."

Gu Xi hung up the call.

When her hand slid down, she took a deep breath.

Of course, she knew that Pei Qian was not so dumb that he could not see through her small tricks, but she did not know why he was so easy to deal with earlier on…

The phone in her hand suddenly vibrated and she thought it was Pei Qian so she answered the call and said, "Pei Qian, I have already told you that I will come back in two days…"

On the other end of the call, a female voice rang. "Gu Xi, so you are really together with him."

Tang Xinru?

Gu Xi froze momentarily before she immediately looked at the phone number. B*tch…

"Miss Tang, please do not call me again in the future. I don't think I owe you your salary!" Gu Xi did not need to be courteous to her.

Tang Xinru said in a soft and tender voice, "Gu Xi, we are best friends. I'm getting engaged, so I wanted to share the news with you…"

Gu Xi felt a stab in her heart. Engagement?

So fast! But it was not considered that fast since they already have a baby together.

"Then, congratulations," Gu Xi said in a cold tone. "You wanted to hear this, right?"

"Gu Xi, Qin Mo and I really cherish you as a friend. So, please attend our engagement banquet?" Since she was marrying into a reputable family, Tang Xinru had the demeanor of a young mistress and had an indignant tone.

Her attitude disgusted Gu Xi, and so, she replied without hesitation. "I'm very busy!"

"Gu Xi, I don't want to nag, but girls should not be too engrossed in their careers. If they were, they wouldn't have time for their boyfriends." Tang Xinru seemed to have forgotten how she got her fiance, and she softly said, "My Qin Mo didn't even let me go to work and made me rest at home."

Gu Xi wanted to hang up the call, but doing that would make her look petty and irritated!

"Then stay at home and take care of your baby. You must know that if you lose his baby, you may not be able to be Mrs. Qin anymore." When Gu Xi said those words, she felt a rush of pleasure and even thought of herself as an evil female side character.

It was obvious that Tang Xinru did not expect her to say those words. She had gone speechless for a moment before she quickly said, "Gu Xi, I understand how you feel. If you don't wish to come because you cannot let go of Qin Mo, I won't blame you."

The pot called the kettle black! Gu Xi finally understood what it was to be shameless. But she did not lash out at her and instead spoke calmly. "Sure, I will be there to personally congratulate both of you."

"Okay, then tomorrow at eight o'clock in the evening at the Crystal Hotel!" As though it was not enough, Tang Xinru added on, "Come with President Pei!"

Wasn't she still supposed to be 'overseas' tomorrow?
