It was also in Continent O, at the dining table of the hotel’s presidential suite. In the same video, Su Ji’s extremely immersive lines came from someone’s phone.
Pei Huai’s hand that was holding the coffee cup had not moved for a long time.
The room service staff called out “Sir” but received no response. Half a minute later, he left.
The man’s gaze was locked on the screen. He had been busy with meetings until midnight yesterday, so he only saw his fiancée’s video now.
In the past few days since he came to Continent O, Su Ji had been appearing in his dreams frequently.
After watching this video today, this situation would become even more serious.
Pei Huai felt that he could die from overwork.
He accidentally touched the pop-up button. The screen was densely packed with crafty villains who coveted his fiancée.
Pei Huai decisively turned it off. The screen was quiet. His fingertips gently rubbed the girl’s delicate cheek.
Shen Mu was standing at the side. At this moment, he saw a pair of extremely infatuated eyes. If he didn’t know that the person on the screen was his CEO’s future wife, just based on their CEO’s expression at this moment, it wouldn’t be wrong to think that he’s a crazy fan.
However, when Shen Mu stole a glance at his CEO’s phone at the side…
Even Shen Mu was mesmerized, let alone his CEO.
The CEO’s future wife was really ruthless.
Shen Mu only took a minute to sneak a glance at it before he refocused. He almost forgot the important task that the she had given him!
“By the way, Ms. Su Ji brought this to you. She made it herself!” Shen Mu placed the box in his hand on the table.
It was an insulator container that looked quite big. It was square in shape and had various customs inspection certificates pasted on the outside.
It had traveled thousands of miles.
Pei Huai’s gaze finally left the phone and looked at the box.
The only thing that could make Pei Huai temporarily forget about his fiancée’s video call was the present that his fiancée had given him.
Shen Mu’s hands and feet were agile and careful. He opened the container, and inside was a very small translucent box.
However, the essence was concentrated.
There were six brownish-yellow biscuits lying inside, one on top of the other. The biscuits were thick and solid, and the baked skin cracked with beautiful patterns. They were also embellished with black sesame seeds. They did look good.
These were the six best pieces that Su Ji had honorably chosen in the end. Lying in the container, there seemed to be smug emojis on them.
Pei Huai raised his eyebrows in surprise. Six pieces was beyond his expectations.
“When did she make them?” Pei Huai asked.
Shen Mu said, “I heard that it was an international express delivery a few days ago. It just arrived this morning.”
Pei Huai held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
He could tell at a glance that it was a biscuit and not anything else, which was very surprising.
Compared to the dish she made last winter that he remembered vividly, his fiancée had improved a lot this year. Perhaps she was actually very talented and just needed encouragement.
Pei Huai opened the container.
The lid was tightly sealed, so it was not easy to open it now.
Pei Huai opened the lid with such force that a biscuit flew out and fell to the ground.
Shen Mu reached out to take it, but the biscuit fell to the ground first.
Even the agile Pei Huai did not manage to catch it.
The biscuit fell to the ground faster than they had expected.
The moment the biscuit fell to the ground, there was a clang. It was a very solid sound!
Pei Huai: .
Shen Mu:
The air suddenly quieted down.
That was definitely not the sound of biscuits falling on the ground. It seemed to be something like a shot put!
Pei Huai looked at the biscuits in the box with a serious expression. He was silent for a while before he opened his palm and stretched it to the side.
“Give me a knife and fork,” he said.
Shen Mu paused for a moment and obediently went to get it.
It had been checked and was very clean. It had been disinfected and handed over to the CEO.
Pei Huai picked up his knife and fork and was about to start eating a biscuit.
Shen Mu leaned back tactically and narrowed his eyes.
Pei Huai raised his hand and swung his knife down. He was still as elegant as when he ate a steak.
However, the moment his blade touched the outer layer of the biscuit, Shen Mu could clearly see the tendon on his forehead twitch.
‘”It is absolutely impossible to cut…”
Shen Mu thought to himself.
However, in the next second, there was a crack.
The iron-hard biscuit broke into two halves along the blade!
The cross-section was neat and tidy!
It worked?!
Shen Mu couldn’t believe it!
Meanwhile, Pei Huai quietly withdrew his wrist that was secretly exerting strength.
His fiancée’s face was saved.
He was about to start enjoying it, so he raised his hand to signal Shen Mu to
Ieave.
Shen Mu straightened his body, nodded, and left.
Half an hour later, Shen Mu waited for his CEO to come downstairs.
“Boss, the car is ready.” Shen Mu nodded.
Pei Huai boarded the carriage.
Now, all the other matters on the business trip to Continent O had been completed, leaving the most important one unfinished. However, the ambitious man was already eager to return home.
Shen Mu’s expression was solemn.
Today, they finally had an appointment with Mr. Henry. This would most likely be the last negotiation between the two sides, and success or failure would depend on this.
The meeting last night ended in the early hours of the morning. Their CEO only rested for less than two hours.
Although he was in good health and looked normal, he had actually lost a lot of weight.
The car started. Shen Mu signaled the driver to roll up the window with his eyes. It was windy outside.
When Henry arrived at the clubhouse’s private room, Pei Huai was enjoying his breakfast calmly.
The table was large and exquisite.
Pei Huai ate extremely elegantly, neither fast nor slow.
The calmer he was, the angrier Henry felt.
It was as if he was the leader of this negotiation.
Today, both sides were present, and it seemed like they were about to carry out the final negotiation.
Henry walked to the table with a group of people behind him. They were mighty and domineering.
He stood at the front and tapped his fingers on the table a few times. He lowered his body and said in an extremely provocative tone, “CEO Pei, you are the second party in this negotiation. Please know your position…”
Pei Huai’s lips curled up slightly, and the tissue lightly touched the corner of his lips.
Since he was almost done, he raised his hand to signal for the waiter to leave.
The waiter nodded and stepped forward. Henry snorted proudly. “That’s more like it.”
Shen Mu clenched his fists.
What kind of attitude was that…
How dare he speak to his boss like that!
It had been a month since they started here, and Mr. Henry had always been like this. Even Shen Mu, who had always been good-tempered, could not stand it anymore, but his boss still tolerated it.
If it wasn’t for the fact that his boss sincerely wanted to facilitate this cooperation so that he could retire early and spend more time with his future wife, he would definitely not be suppressed like this!
Seeing that Mr. Henry was getting more and more outrageous, Shen Mu was furious.. He really hoped that someone would come and take care of this monster!
