Chapter 269 - 269 A Confession

269 A Confession

Under the director and assistant director’s fascinated gaze, Su Ji’s scenes for the day ended.

Si Jingchuan said, “boss, you’re really resistant to the cold. You didn’t even shake when your arm was exposed for so long. Just by looking at the camera, I thought it was really a hot summer day with bright sunshine.”

Su Ji smiled in a relaxed manner.

She could indeed withstand the cold, but she was afraid of the heat.

Therefore, in comparison, it was not difficult to film a scene in the summer in the winter. However, she hoped that there would never be a time where a scene in the summer would be filmed in the winter.

When Su Ji returned home from the set, Wang Zhicheng’s car happened to turn at the same time as Pei Huai’s car.

Su Ji lowered the window of the passenger seat and could see Pei Huai in the driver’s seat next to hers.

She said, “I have something to discuss with you.”

Pei Huai glanced at her. I’ll park the car and wait for you.”

Immediately after, he accelerated and put some distance between them.

When Su Ji got out of the car, Xu Mingzhi was not home.

Pei Huai was already waiting for her in the garage next door.

Su Ji walked past the barrier between her house and the next door. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned back to look at Wang Zhicheng, “Uncle Wang.”

Wang Zhicheng jogged over and smiled kindly. “What can I do for you, miss?”

Su Ji asked mysteriously, “did you…see anything? ”

Wang Zhicheng’s gaze fell on Pei Huai, who was standing in front of the garage next door. He immediately understood and covered his eyes. “I didn’t see who the next-door neighbor is!”

Su Ji finally understood why Xu Mingzhi liked him so much. “Thank you, uncle Wang.”

Su Ji strode into the neighboring courtyard, and Pei Huai brought her to the narrow passageway between the garage and the house.

This location was hidden. Su Cunyi wouldn’t be able to see it when he came back, and Xu Mingzhi wouldn’t be able to see it if she came back.

He wanted to be intimate with her, but as soon as the two of them got there, Su Ji took out something and gave it to him.

It was the credit card that he had given her!

Pei Huai raised his eyebrows slightly, his voice low and bewitching. “I said you don’t have to return it.”

“I have money,” Su Ji replied.

Pei Huai lowered his eyes and looked at her. “I want you to spend my money.”

Su Ji felt that he was an interesting person. Luckily, she was his only girlfriend. If he had had a few more in the past, the Pei family would not have been as glorious as they were now.

Su Ji was not sensitive to matters of the heart, but Pei Huai’s behavior was clear.

She took a step forward and leaned close to him, sliding the black card in her hand into his pocket.

She stared at him and asked, “Pei Huai, do you really like me….?”

“I don’t like you.” Pei Huai grabbed her by the waist and pinched her chin. “Su Ji, I love you.”

Thousands of years ago, he was already her most devout follower.

He was already hers.

And in this life, he wanted to make her his.

On Friday, Dong Xiyou’s Weibo’s poll ended.

The results of the vote were out. Nicha Sonpashan was selected!

This time, Dong Xiyou was anxious.

She had promised Su Ji that she would get another celebrity to appear with her.

However, 90% of the netizens had voted for CEO Pei.

Dong Xiyou and Su Ji were classmates, but she was so nervous that she couldn’t sleep a few nights before telling her the result.

Now, she had to contact CEO Pei, whom she had never met before, to discuss this matter.

Standing in front of the Pei Corporation, Dong Xiyou glanced at Su Ji’s photo that she had clipped to her phone case.

Other people would put the God of Fortune, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and fox deity in the phone case.

She took a photo of Su Ji.

It was really effective.

Yesterday, she bought a bottle of milk and won three bottles for free.

When she opened the fourth bottle, she realized that she’d won a washing machine!

She heard that the other two interns who were competing with her had also invited heavyweight on-screen couples.

Besides, for Su Ji, she couldn’t back down!

Half an hour later, Shen Mu knocked on the door of the CEO’s office.

“Boss.” Shen Mu walked around the desk and stood in front of Pei Haui. “A lady with the surname Dong is looking for you.”

Pei Huai didn’t look away from his document. “Tell her that I only see Ms. Su.”

Shen Mu: “…”

His CEO had labeled himself as “Su Ji’s private property”.

Shen Mu said mysteriously, “Ms. Dong is working on ‘Hello, Sunday’. She wants to invite you to participate in their best on-screen couple project this weekend.”

...

Pei Huai had completely forgotten that he had once starred as a guest.

She looked at Shen Mu with a look that said, “are you crazy or am I crazy?”

“Reject it.”

“Boss, don’t you want to ask who your partner is first?” Shen Mu deliberately beat around the bush.

Pei Huai continued to focus on the contract and did not reply to him.

Shen Mu could only answer his own question. He leaned in front of the boss and said, word by word, “it’s Miss. Su!”

As expected, Pei Huai paused.

Shen Mu immediately revealed a triumphant smile. He waited until the end, just to see his face when he heard the words “Ms. Su!”

However, he was only smug for a second when Pei Huai’s cold gaze turned to him. “You think it’s funny?”

Shen Mu immediately stood at attention, his fingers sticking to the seams of his pants. “Sorry!”

He connected the front desk to the CEO’s landline and Pei Huai picked up the call.

...

Dong Xiyou heard CEO Pei’s voice over the phone and felt an unbelievable sense of surprise.

However, the pretty and cute receptionist was not surprised at all. “Ms. Dong, we’ve already told you that you don’t have to be nervous. The CEO will definitely agree to meet you!”

After all, it was related to Ms. Su!

Dong Xiyou was concise and comprehensive. She then professionally introduced the plan for the episode to CEO Pei. “…it was voted on by netizens. If you can participate, the audience will definitely respond very well. It will definitely have a positive effect on your business and the publicity of The Billions Stars!”

Pei Huai said, “that sounds good.”

Dong Xiyou clutched her chest in excitement. Her plan had worked!

“But we’ll be recording the program on Sunday night, which might take up to three to five hours of your time. I wonder if you’re busy on Sunday?”

Pei Huai slowly looked at Shen Mu. “Am I busy on Sunday?”

Shen Mu immediately took out his phone and opened his planner. “You have a business meeting in the morning, a contract signing with CEO Wu in the afternoon, an international call in the evening, and two video meetings. That’s all for now.”

Pei Huai nodded slightly and said, “okay, I’m not busy. I’ll be there.”
