After a few knocks, a faint voice came from inside, "Come in."
Wu's assistant pushed open the door and walked in, stopping in front of the office desk.
Pei Muniang was looking at the file without lifting his head, his fingers lightly tapping on the desktop, and he ordered directly, "Put down the file, you can go."
Assistant Wu heard what Big Boss said and knew that he was in a very bad mood at the moment and didn't want to talk. If he was smart, he wouldn't have poked his nose into this at this time.
He had a moment of wanting to shrink back, but thinking about the big boss's happiness, he insisted on holding on!
Wu's assistant carefully chose his words, sneaking a glance at the big boss's expression while tentatively opening his mouth. "Director Pei, the phone call just now... was from Mrs. Shao."
Pei Muni seemed as if he hadn't heard anything, his expression unchanged, and even his eyes didn't flicker.
"Wu's assistant gritted her teeth and continued, 'Young Madam asked me to tell you that you should not only focus on work, but also eat on time and pay attention to your body...'"
"Wu Assistant."
Pei Muni snapped the file shut, raised an eyebrow and gazed at him coolly. Her voice was devoid of warmth as she said, "Looks like you're quite free today?"
Wu's assistant stiffened his back and hastily shook his head, "No no no, I'm very busy, I'm especially especially busy."
"If you're busy, why talk so much?"
Although his voice was soft, it carried an intangible pressure that pressed towards him, and Assistant Wu immediately became flustered. He thought to himself, Young Madam, I can only help you this far.
He lowered his eyelids and said respectfully: "Director Pei, then I'll go out and get busy."
He turned around and walked towards the door, took a few steps, when Pei Mu's voice suddenly sounded again, "Wait."
Wu's assistant's eyes lit up, thinking there was a turning point, and immediately stopped in his tracks, turned around, "Director Pei, what are your orders?"
Pei Mu Nian's lips curled up slightly, and he fell silent for a few seconds before opening his thin lips to say in a measured tone, "From now on, Su Wanwan's calls will not be answered. Also, inform the front desk that anyone without an appointment will not be seen!"
Anyone...
Sir, you might as well directly mention names and surnames, where is Young Mistress?
Assistant Wu let out a sigh, but still nodded decisively, "Understood, I'll pass it down."
-
For the next week, Su Wanwan made it a point to call Pei Mochen every day, but for some reason, whenever she called, he was either busy, out, or in a meeting, and they never seemed to catch each other at a good time.
Su Wanwan asked Wu Assistant for Pei Mochen's new mobile phone number, Wu Assistant hesitated and stammered for half a day, only saying that General Manager Pei has been very busy these days and hasn't had time to apply for a new phone number.
Su Wanwan made another call to the villa, and Wu Ayi said that Pei Muxuan had not returned yet.
Su Wanwan knew that Pei Mochen had been busy lately, and when she went to find him before, he also made time to have dinner with her. But could it be... that he was so busy that he didn't even have time to return a single phone call from her?
And... he never called her either.
Su Wanwan didn't want to make wild guesses, but her heart couldn't help but surge with some ominous premonitions, feeling as if something bad had happened.
Su Wanwan shook her head vigorously, shaking off the uneasy feeling. She must have been too sensitive. Once she returned to L City tomorrow and saw Pei Muxuan, everything would be fine again.
