C4

Ning Xia, wearing the same housedress that she hadn't washed in the past two days and had applied the water stain twice more, was forced by Shen Heng to "invite" her down the stairs.

Downstairs, there was a Rolls-Royce Phantom Shadow. The car window slowly opened, revealing Pei Yichen's devilish features. However, a layer of frost could be seen on his face. Ning Xia couldn't help but to hug her arms, shivering.

The moment he saw Ning Xia, his brows wrinkled. "Get on."

"Yes."

Ning Xia subconsciously straightened her body and respectfully nodded her head. Just a salute was enough. Her actions almost made Shen Heng, who was standing beside her, unable to hold back his laughter.

Only after they got on the car did Ning Xia react, "CEO Pei, where are we going?"

She always felt a sense of inferiority while sitting in the car with her clothes on!

The heck, if he were to look for her, wouldn't he just inform her beforehand?

"Carve this phone number into your mind!"

Pei Yi Chen coldly spat out some words that caused people to be confused. Ning Xia hesitated for two seconds before reacting, screaming at the top of her lungs as she shouted at Shen Heng, "Stop! Shen Te, stop the car. I didn't even get my cell phone or my key! "

She was directly brought out by Shen Heng the moment she opened the door. She didn't even bring her key, what if she can't go back?

"Stupid!"

Pei Yi Chen was very dissatisfied with her shouting. She had completely missed his point!

With a low voice, Ning Xia instantly didn't dare to speak up. She looked at Shen Heng in the rearview mirror with a pitiful expression.

She didn't have a single cent in her pocket. What if this CEO Pei just threw her somewhere along the way, or some deserted place …

In just an instant, she had thought of countless possibilities.

Forget it, who doesn't die in the ancient times? If you die early, you die late!

He reminded her in a kind tone, "Miss Ning Xia, even if you go back now, you won't be able to open the door. Don't worry, this is CEO Pei's welcoming banquet tonight, and I need you as my assistant to help me identify the person."

After all, the country's upper echelons and business associates had just returned, and they really did not know many of them.

"Oh, okay."

Ning Xia wanted to cry but had no tears. She turned her face to look at the man who didn't say a word, feeling furious. However, when she saw that icy face, she instantly became terrified.

Pinching her clothes, Ning Xia became even more cautious. She felt that if she stayed in the same space as Pei Yi Chen, she would collapse at any moment.

"That's not right, CEO Pei. Don't tell me you want me to dress like this and join your welcome feast? If I'm standing next to you like this, I'll lose face for you."

Heavens, if she had such an image in front of the higher-ups today, there was no doubt that she would be fired tomorrow just because her left foot or right foot stepped into the company first!

"Otherwise?"

Pei Yi Chen calmly looked at the broken down Ning Xia. This woman had actually hung up his phone. She really did not take the normal route!

Or — What?

Ning Xia repeated his words in her heart. She really wanted to rush over and beat this lunatic up, but when she saw his ice-cold eyes, her aura was instantly frozen.

"How about this, CEO Pei. If you pass by a shop or something, lend me some money. I'll change my clothes and return it to you tomorrow after work, okay?"

As the CEO of a senior, how could he be unwilling to lend out such a small amount of money?

When Pei Yi Chen heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the pitiful expression on Ning Xia's face. Suddenly, he revealed a smile, "Alright."

Ning Xia was stunned. She never thought that this iceberg like man would have such a beautiful smile. He said the word "good" to himself. It was as if all her resentment had vanished like smoke in thin air.

The temperature inside the car rose abruptly. Ning Xia felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She quickly averted her gaze, afraid that she would fall into the man's eyes.

A hint of disgust flashed past Pei Yi Chen's eyes. "Let's go to Owen."

When Shen Heng received the order, he immediately turned around and looked at Ning Xia through the rearview mirror. He felt some sympathy for her. Some people are going to have bad luck ~

Owen?

When Ning Xia heard this name, she had a strange feeling that it was somewhat familiar. However, she couldn't think of where she had heard this name before.

The car drove steadily until it reached the entrance of a styled living room. Immediately, someone received them and led them to a private room upstairs.

"Director Pei, it's been a while. What do you need today?"

As soon as Owen opened his mouth, Ning Xia felt goosebumps all over her body. If Owen was not a man, she would feel that this was like an ancient guest …

"Half an hour, change her appearance!"

Pei Yi Chen threw down those words and headed outside to the VIP lounge. It seemed that staying here for even a second longer would make his entire body feel uncomfortable.

"Ai, CEO Pei..."

Before Ning Xia finished speaking, Pei Yi Chen's figure had already disappeared completely.

"Little sister, what style do you want to use?"

Owen gave what he considered a very amiable smile.

The corner of Ning Xia's mouth twitched with great difficulty. "The simpler it is, the better …"
