Chapter 7 (1/2)
Lu Man hung up her phone. Hou Qingqing appeared and asked her in a sleepy voice, “What are we celebrating for?”
“To celebrate that I’m free finally!”
At night, they went to a hot pot shop. It was their usual spot.
“Big Boss Pei is indeed amazing! He’s able to defeat the enemy in a second!”
“That’s right! It’s so true!”
Both Liang Feiyue and Hou Qingqing had had a good impression of Pei Xiuyuan.
“It is beyond our expectation!” Lu Man felt that life was indeed filled with different incidental twists. She was still struggling to fight for her rights the day before yesterday. Now, the sun was shining brightly for her and life was wonderful again.
Both Lu Man’s friends nodded in agreement at the same time. They thought that being married to Pei Xiuyuan could help Lu Man to resolve that conflict. But, they never thought that all of their wishes would be fulfilled so beautifully.
“What do you think? How did he get my contact number? Clearly, I didn’t give it to him!” Suddenly, Lu Man thought of this question.
“He’s a CEO! Surely, he’s able to get your contact number easily!”
What Liang Feiyue said made Lu Man realized that she was indeed stupid!
“Manman, is Mu Yunhai going to get married soon? You just bring along your Big Boss Pei and attend his wedding ceremony. Go and show off in front of them!” Hou Qingqing was pretty excited when she pictured the scene in her mind.
“It’s a good idea!” Liang Feiyue agreed with Hou Qingqing.
“Yes, for sure!” Lu Man was not a kind and naive woman. She would avenge herself if somebody else bullied her!
Lu Man’s phone rang again when they were chatting happily.
It was from Pei Xiuyuan!
Soon, they kept quiet. They signaled to Lu Man to pick up the phone immediately.
Lu Man answered her phone and a deep voice came through the phone.
“Have you eaten?”
“I’m eating.”
“What are you eating?”
“Hot pot.”
“Alone?”
“I’m with my friends.”
“Enjoy your meal. Eat more on my behalf too.”
Lu Man was stunned.
What did it mean? Why did he ask her to eat more on his behalf?
She did not know how to respond to that. So, she kept quiet.
“Go ahead and enjoy your meal.” It seemed that Pei Xiuyuan was about to hang up on him.
Lu Man remembered what happened that day and she said immediately, “Thank you.”
Pei Xiuyuan was a little stunned. Soon, he understood why she thanked him. “Mrs. Pei, your husband favors actions as a form of appreciation.”
Lu Man was again speechless.
“Think about how to thank me when you have finished your meal. I’m quite eager to see.” Pei Xiuyuan hung up the phone when he had finished talking.
Lu Man stared at the phone. Her lips twitched. He acted as if she owned it to him!
2“What’s wrong? Why do you look like this?” Hou Qingqing approached Lu Man.
