230 Can I Borrow Your Bed?
Pei Huai ignored Tang Yimo’s exaggerated and ugly expression. He walked to the door and squeezed Su Ji’s hand.
His voice was gentle. “The police will be here soon. Go back to your room first. I’ll handle this.”
“Okay.” Su Ji stood up a second later. Before she left, she leaned close to his ear and, just like how he usually did to her, she hooked her arm around the back of his neck and whispered, “happy birthday.”
Pei Huai’s heart rippled.
Tang Yimo could not believe that Pei Huai could be so gentle to Su Ji when he was so cold to her just a second ago.
A strong sour feeling surged up her throat, almost corroding her internal organs.
After Su Ji left, Tang Yimo still wanted to fight for herself. She cried and said, “CEO Pei, don’t be deceived by Su Ji. She’s two-timing you!”
Pei Huai glanced at her coldly.
Tang Yimo said, “other than being with you, she was with Manager Ren at the same time!”
“...”
“Who told you that?” He asked.
“The entire crew said so! ” Tang Yimo said.
Pei Huai replied, “thank you for telling me that my girlfriend was criticized by the crew. I’ll help her deal with it later. You don’t have to worry.”
Tang Yimo was once again at a loss for words.
Then, she saw Pei Huai call Ren Guanghua.
The man’s expression was stern. Although he didn’t say anything harsh, Ren Guanghua was so scared that he fell off the bed. He quickly swore, “boss, please believe me. I really don’t know. No one said it in front of me. Don’t worry, I’ll personally clarify this with the crew tomorrow!”
After Su Ji returned to her room, she took a shower and came out of the bathroom about half an hour later.
She heard the sound of the elevator outside the door, followed by the sound of footsteps.
It was the sound of people from other rooms opening their doors and going out to check on the situation.
In fact, many people had already woken up when Tang Yimo shouted just now.
They just didn’t dare to come out.
After the police arrived, the lights in the rooms were all turned on.
Even Han Junlei and Huang Huayu, who lived on the other floors, were alarmed.
When they arrived at Pei Huai’s room, they were all shocked by the situation.
The police station had sent a few officers who could speak Chinese.
Tang Yimo did not have time to put on her clothes. She covered her body with the blanket and did not dare to look up.
What happened was clear at a glance.
Those who did not understand the situation understood everything as Pei Huai explained the case to the police.
Everyone looked at Tang Yimo with disgust. No matter how pitiful she looked, no one sympathized with her.
Ms. Feng said, “Yimo, how could you do such a thing?”
Han Junlei felt that it was too embarrassing to have someone like this in his production team. He could not face CEO Pei.
Huang Huayu stood by the side and kept apologizing to CEO Pei.
Even Zhou Xuefang squinted her eyes in disgust when she saw Tang Yimo’s expression.
What a failure!
She had wasted so much time on her!
Tang Yimo looked at her as if she was her savior.
Just as she was about to ask her to put in a few good words for her, Zhou Xuefang spoke up first. “Yimo, I’ve told you before. CEO Pei is not someone you should mess with! Why don’t you listen to me?”
Tang Yimo was stunned.
She was lying!
She clearly didn’t say that!
Tang YImo said, “but you said…”
“Don’t talk to me anymore! We are no longer friends!”
After saying that, Zhou Xuefang turned around and left, not giving her a chance to explain herself.
At this moment, Tang Yimo finally realized how stupid she had been!
Pei Huai gave Bian Tong a call and let him handle the remaining.
At first, Bian Tong thought that he found out about the painting, and only dared to pick it up after it rang a few times.
After hearing that it was about a case, he finally relaxed.
The Pei family had their own legal department and would not use him for purely business matters.
The cases he handled were basically all related to Su Ji.
He smiled. “You’ve been using me a lot recently.”
“You’ve become more useful.”
After they were done with the statement, the police took Tang Yimo and a few other hotel staff away.
Now that Tang Yimo was in trouble, her scenes would definitely be cut.
Even Huang Huayu was convinced “The Billions Stars” was really a show where good things came with setbacks.
First, Su Qianrou’s role was replaced. Then, Song Heng was replaced. Now, Tang Yimo, who had just made a name for herself in the last episode, had to be replaced again!
“Don’t worry, CEO Pei. It’s my fault that I didn’t manage the crew well. We’ll find a way to get someone to replace her as soon as possible. It won’t affect the scheduled broadcast of the fourth episode.”
However, Pei Huai was obviously not satisfied with his plan.
If the reshoot was done by someone else, Su Ji would have to work harder as well.
“There’s no need to re-shoot,” Pei Huai said.
Han Junlei was surprised. “No? But we can’t use an actress with a bad reputation…”
Pei Huai said, “get the tech team to change her face with AI.”
Even Huang Huayu looked over. “CEO Pei, that’s possible, but to make it flawless, it will be expensive.”
“That’s fine. Ren Guanghua will reimburse you for the expenses.”
Huang Huayu and Han Junlei looked at each other and took a deep breath.
This would help them solve a big problem!
Then, they thought of another thing.
In order not to affect the viewership ratings of “The Billion Stars”, they hoped to keep the news of Tang Yimo’s arrest until after the fourth episode was aired.
Of course, Pei Huai didn’t want to affect the film that Su Ji had worked so hard for. “Sure, you guys handle it.”
He was busy all the way until one in the morning.
Everyone was talking about it when they returned to their rooms.
They did not expect Tang Yimo to do such a thing when she looked so innocent and cute!
You really can’t judge a book by its cover!
At two in the morning, Pei Huai knocked on Su Ji’s door.
Su Ji was wearing her pajamas, and her hair was a little messy.
The soundproofing here was not good, and he was afraid that it would affect Su Ji’s sleep after a busy night.
But now, it was clear that he didn’t.
He smiled. “Can I borrow your bed?”
“?”
“What about yours? Tang Yimo hasn’t left yet?”
“It’s dirty. I don’t want to sleep in it.”
“Ask them to change the bedsheets.”
“It’s not enough, I’m now allergic to the bed.”
After a few seconds of staring at him, Su Ji had no choice but to let him share her bed.
She yawned. “I’ll say this first. It’s too late now. I’m so tired that I don’t want to move at all…”
Pei Huai chuckled. Did she think that he would still be interested after what happened?
“Don’t worry, just like the other day, we’ll just sleep.”
Su Ji lay on the bed and fell asleep within a few minutes.
Pei Huai borrowed her bathroom to take a shower. When he came out, she was already breathing evenly.
Pei Huai lifted the blanket. He said that he was not interested, but when he lay down beside her, he couldn’t help but bite her cheek lightly. Then, he lay down beside her.
He closed his eyes, and the ancient costume painting appeared in front of him again.
Pei Huai’s eyes moved uneasily.
After that, he hugged Su Ji and slowly calmed down.
He thought that he would be fine.
However, he had another dream that night.
This time, he dreamed that Su Ji was covered in blood!
