Chapter 216 - 216 A Trip to Country T (1/2)
216 A Trip to Country T
“Did you hear that? The CEO is asking why you’re here…”
The receptionist was eager to push the blame away. At first, she didn’t realize it and tried to make it difficult for Su Ji.
But halfway through her words, she realized that something was wrong.
The CEO’s tone…
And the way he looked at her…
Their faces suddenly dropped.
Could this girl really be his girl-…
The other executives looked at Su Ji.
They had been with the CEO for a few hours, but they had never seen him pat anyone’s head or speak to anyone in such a pampering tone.
It was obvious that they had a very close relationship.
CEO Wang had suffered a loss at Su Ji’s hands the last time, so he had learnt his lesson.
Based on his tone and actions just now, he knew that he was Su Ji.
After the incident at the clubhouse, the Pei Corporation’s executives had come to a consensus that as long as the CEO treated someone so well, that person, regardless of whether they were male or female, must be Su Ji!
Even if it was just a kitten, it would still be Su Ji!
Because other than Su Ji, the CEO would never show such an expression to any other carbon-based being!
Pei Huai’s eyes slowly turned to the two receptionists. He said, “CEO Wang, there’s nothing wrong with the factory’s assembly line, but it’s time to change the receptionists.”
The receptionists trembled and looked at CEO Wang, hoping that he would plead for them.
However, he quickly went forward with a smile. “I’ll replace them right away!”
He must please Ms. Su no matter what.

Sitting in the back seat of the car, Su Ji took off her hat, mask, and sunglasses. She pulled up the partition between the front seat and the back seat, blocking the smiling and gossipy driver’s view.
She looked at Pei Huai and went straight to the point.
She said in an extremely serious and sincere tone, “Pei Huai, it’s your birthday the day after tomorrow. Happy birthday in advance.”
Pei Huai raised an eyebrow.
There were a few seconds of silence in the car.
Pei Huai did not say anything, but Su Ji could tell that he was happy.
It was obvious that he was just trying to restrain himself.
Su Ji knew that she had not come in vain.
Seeing him happy, she seemed to be even happier than she expected.
Pei Huai didn’t expect Su Ji to know his birthday. He laughed and helped her tidy her hair. “You came all the way here just to wish me a happy birthday?”
Su Ji replied, “yeah. I’m flying to Country T in the afternoon to film for a few days. I won’t be able to spend your birthday with you, so I’m wishing you in advance.”
Pei Huai’s smile instantly disappeared.
Who arranged the filming schedule?
Su Ji could tell that he was disappointed.
The people who were celebrating their birthdays were the most important.
Su Ji tried to coax him, “it’s really too unfortunate. This morning, they informed us that we would be going overseas for a few days for filming and that we would only be back on Thursday night. I really wanted to spend your birthday with you.”
Pei Huai narrowed his eyes slightly and crossed his long legs to change into a more comfortable sitting position. “So, if you don’t have to go, you would plan something for me?”
He didn’t have the habit of celebrating his birthday. In the past, he would spend his birthday at work. If his family didn’t mention it, he wouldn’t remember it at all.
However, Su Ji’s wish surprised him.
