Pei Huai put his phone to his ear with one hand and calmly talked while his other hand circled around Su Ji’s waist.

Her back was pressed against the door, and his arm held her body. She was seduced by the man’s gaze in front of her.

Pei Huai seemed to know why she wanted to invite him back to the apartment.

He also had the intention to ask for a reward.

Pei Huai answered the entire phone call in a foreign language. His pronunciation was very accurate, and his voice was low and magnetic.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

For Su Ji, who had transmigrated thousands of years ago, being good at foreign languages was a very sexy bonus.

Outside the door, Shen Mu instructed his assistant to pack up important documents. The sound of footsteps often passed through the corridor outside the study. Su Ji could hear it clearly through the door behind her.

She mouthed to Pei Huai, “going on a business trip?”

Her eyes were especially bright when she asked.

Pei Huai was still arranging things over the phone and did not reply to Su Ji. However, he kept looking into her eyes as if he was admiring a piece of extremely beautiful jade.

Su Ji knew that he was on an important call.

Her body was starting to heat up when she was pressed against him, but when she heard that he was going on a business trip, she cooled down again.

Since he was going on a business trip tomorrow morning, he could forget about the reward for now. He would think about it when he returned.

Su Ji wanted to break free from his restraints, but Pei Huai tightened his grip on her.

Her body was against his.

Su Ji looked at him. Pei Huai pulled out his phone and whispered into her ear, “wait for me for a while...”

That voice was extremely poisonous.

They had a tacit understanding on some things. Su Ji turned her head away, and her ears heated up uncontrollably.

The voice on the other end of the phone paused for a moment before continuing to report.

“Boss, everything for the business trip is ready,” Shen Mu reported through the bedroom door.

Su Ji’s heart was in a mess. The moment Pei Huai hung up the phone, he pinched her delicate chin, bent over, and kissed her...

The spacious study room instantly became stuffy.

Shen Mu waited for a minute, but the CEO did not reply.

He was silent for a moment and arranged for his assistants to leave first.

“The car will pick you up at seven tomorrow morning...”

Uneasiness was hidden in his subconscious.

The emotion was causing him to not let go of her all night.

He had to be careful of her leg injury and the baby. It seemed like there were many rules, but in reality, it didn’t seem to affect anything.

Su Ji was also very easy easy going that night. It was as if she was willing to do whatever he wanted.

She had seen those spectacular profile pictures in the trending searches and how much he cared about her.

Before Pei Huai went on his business trip, she gave him the most unforgettable night.

At five in the morning, the twilight outside the window curtains showed that there were only two hours left before Shen Mu and the rest came to pick him

up.

Su Ji did not plan to sleep. She was afraid that she would not be able to get up.

She even forced herself to take a shower and sat in front of the dressing table to tie her hair.

She glanced at the mirror. The rubber band was coiled around her fingertips. She tied her hair neatly behind her head, and Pei Huai was behind her. His short black hair was half-dry, and he looked at her without saying a word.

The thought of delaying his business trip appeared in his mind countless times throughout the night. He was like a young boy who was deeply in love and could not control his emotions.

In the end, he convinced himself to not take action.

When his fiancée was finally done packing, he carried her to sit on his lap.

He wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed his thumb on the corner of her mouth before kissing her again.

He wrapped his arms around her and got up to carry her to the bed. He let her turn around and hugged her from behind until he heard her breathing. He raised his hand and pulled the rubber band that she had painstakingly tied up, allowing her long hair to fall freely.

Su Ji slept soundly.

Shen Mu’s car arrived at seven sharp. The entire apartment was quiet. Aunt Gong had woken up, but she did not make any noise. Third Master had instructed that no one was allowed to disturb Su Ji until she woke up.

Xiao Tong and Xiao Lingxian couldn’t either.

When Shen Mu saw him, he was on the living room balcony. He guessed that he had not slept the entire night.

However, he was in good spirits and didn’t look tired.

Pei Huai asked Shen Mu for a piece of paper and then asked him to wait outside. He turned around and went back to his room, closing the door.

Pei Huai did not fulfill his promise and did not wake Su Ji up.

In fact, it was not easy to wake her up. Su Ji had already rolled herself into the blanket.

He looked at her silkworm-like face for a while, then smiled with his eyebrows lowered.

He wrote a note and left it on the bedside table. Then, he took with him the black rubber band that she used to tie her hair....
