Chapter 4355

"OK, I'll be there in forty minutes." The woman replied happily, and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Muqing sent Pippi a message, "I'm going to Lincheng for a business trip tomorrow, and we'll see each other when we come back."

I've been really busy recently, Zhou Muqing only realized that they hadn't seen each other for several days when he sent a text message to Pippi, and if counting the meeting alone, the time would be even longer.

A few seconds later, Pippi texted back, "Oh."

She only replied one word, and this word was very indifferent, obviously unhappy.

Seeing this word, Zhou Muqing immediately put down his work and called her. Pippi probably answered it late on purpose.

As soon as she replied to the message, Zhou Muqing called, and she shouldn't put down her phone at this time.

"Didn't you send a message just now? Why did you call again? You deliberately disturbed me to rest at such a late hour, didn't you?"

Pippi said with some displeasure, Zhou Muqing immediately spoke to comfort her, "No, I won't disturb you to rest on purpose. If I did on purpose, I should call directly instead of sending a text message first."

"Well, what's the difference?"

"Of course there is a difference. The information may not be seen in time. You can read it after waking up, but the phone is a more timely contact method than text messages."

Zhou Muqing also called her after seeing Pippi replying to the message, and seeing that she was in a bad mood.

"Well, anyway, you are right."

"No, if you say I'm ignorant, I'm ignorant."

Zhou Muqing subdued obediently, and Pippi felt more comfortable hearing his words.

"Which city are you going to tomorrow?"

Pippi asked curiously, and Zhou Muqing named the city. This is a developing second-tier city, and it shouldn't be the business area that Zhou Muqing would be involved in.

"Is it because of work?"

Pippi felt strange, so she couldn't help asking again, but Zhou Muqing felt a little guilty when she asked, and couldn't tell the lies so quickly.

"Yes, because of work."

"Then can you take me there?"

Zhou Muqing was startled by Pippi's question. He immediately explained that it was a tight day's itinerary, saying that he would set off in the early morning, and it would be too much trouble for Pippi to follow along.

"It's too hard, you still wait for me to come back."

"But I want to follow. I don't find it hard. Besides, wouldn't you be happier if I accompany you?"

"Yes, but..."

"Then don't worry about it, just let me follow."

Pippi seemed to have made up his mind, but Zhou Muqing also made up his mind to keep this matter from her, in order not to make her misunderstand and think too much about it.

"No, not this time."

No matter how Pippi begged, Zhou Muqing would always firmly refuse.

But because of this, Pippi doubted this matter. She felt that there was a problem with this matter. Why couldn't she follow if it was an ordinary business trip? Before changing it, Zhou Muqing must have agreed, it's not a big deal.

Zhou Muqing drove off with the woman in the early morning, and Pippi contacted Zhou Muqing's assistant to ask about it after waking up the next day. The assistant didn't know about it, so the answer was ambiguous.

The assistant's answer was not deceptive, but it did not convince Pippi that this was a normal business trip.

When Zhou Muqing and the woman were driving on the road, he received a call from his assistant. The assistant told Zhou Muqing about the matter that Pippi came to ask, and also how he answered it.

"But Mr. Zhou, I don't think Miss Cheng believes it."
