A trace of displeasure flashed across Pei Haonan's face.
"Ding ding ding..." The clear ringtone interrupted Pei Haonan's thoughts. He turned on the phone and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
"Cousin, don't talk to me like you're owed a hundred billion..." Eggers' protest followed.
Pei Haonan raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "There is a cooperation over there in Africa. I need someone to go over and talk about it. I will recommend it to him!"
"Hey, hey, cousin! I'm here today to report the news to you!" Eric over there was obviously jumping on his feet, and he didn't hide the purpose of his call. "Veronica went to the hospital to find her.
is you!"
"Veronica?" Pei Haonan's eyes sank slightly, as if he was searching for a face that matched the name in his mind.
"Yes, Veronica, she is here to be a judge for this Keldy Company competition!" Eggers said here, suddenly realizing something was wrong, he suddenly reacted, and couldn't help shouting exaggeratedly. "You don't
If she doesn’t remember it...then she’ll probably be sad!”
"Humph..." Pei Haonan issued a note from his nostrils.
Eggers over there trembled immediately and quickly continued, "Look at what grandpa means, he seems to want you to have contact?"
"Contact contact?"
Eggers quickly reported the news he had obtained as if it were a treasure, "Veronica, her grandfather was very satisfied when he saw you last time, so he proposed marriage to him in person. Grandpa didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either, so he said he would let you go first.
touch."
Contact... There was a hint of disapproval in Pei Haonan's eyes.
Grandpa, that old fox...
It sounds like it's just contact, but actually it's not about forcing him to marry?
In the family, even the most carefree cousin is already married...
He is probably anxious...
But Pei Haonan did not refuse immediately.
Eggers still has some business dealings with the Veronica family, so he doesn't want to break things off too soon.
Well, there is no harm in contact...
…
Eggers Private Hospital.
The sun shines through the glass window and onto the long corridor. A tall figure stands straight in front of the window. There is a slight condensation mark on the perfect side face, and the body is as motionless as a mountain.
The woman beside her turned her head to look at him, with another faint smile on her face. She had delicate facial features like a doll, her face was as fair as snow, and there were two groups of dawn blushes on her cheeks, making her look extremely charming.
She is of mixed race, with one-half Chinese ancestry, so she speaks fluent Chinese. Unlike others who call Pei Haonan in English, Veronica prefers to communicate with Pei Haonan in Chinese.
"Hao... I didn't expect you to come back so quickly. I thought I would have to wait for a long time like last time."
Pei Haonan's eyes passed through the glass and fell on the door. Hearing her voice, he turned his head and glanced at her, curling his lips noncommittally.
This faint smile made Veronica forget to breathe for a moment, and her heartbeat almost stopped...
I really didn't expect that Pei Haonan's smile would actually... be so beautiful...
Those perfect facial features bloomed with a dazzling brilliance under the sun...
She felt dizzy, and her consciousness flew out of her control with his smile. Vaguely, she heard Pei Haonan ask in a faint voice, "Veronica, how long do you plan to stay here?"
He...he actually asked her how long she would stay...did that mean...
He doesn't hate her, she still has a chance...
Chance... Grandpa... maybe I really have a chance...
Veronica's ears rang with her grandfather's words before leaving the house, "Veronica, Pei Haonan is a good man. If you catch him, you can not only become Eggers' mistress, but also bring huge benefits to the family."
…”
"It hasn't been determined yet, but I might bother you here often..." Veronica showed a sweet smile, "The air here is very good. As soon as I stand here, I have a lot of inspiration."
"Inspiration?" Pei Haonan raised his eyebrows, "Shouldn't your inspiration go to a place with many children?"
"This... haha..." Veronica smiled dryly and said, "The style of this series is different recently..."
Pei Haonan did not make any other reaction. He glanced across her face and glanced at the watch. Suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, which quickly disappeared...
This sentence was the fifth time he looked at his watch...
Is he waiting for someone?
Who dares to make him wait like this?
Veronica secretly speculated, the smile on her face remained unchanged, and she just asked softly, "Hao, is there something important for you?"
"Is it important?" Pei Haonan raised his eyes to look at her.
Veronica raised her slender wrist, looked at her watch, and then said with a smile, "I see you have been looking at your watch. Are there anything important waiting to be done?"
"Important things... are indeed important..." A smile flashed in Pei Haonan's eyes.
Less than seventeen minutes left...
Yin Xiaoxiao is probably still running wildly on a certain street...
He almost couldn't wait to see her frustrated expression!
This woman ran away without saying a word, and yet she still treated him with that attitude when he found her. He really didn't want to live anymore!
"Jingle Bell……"
Veronica opened her mouth and was about to speak again, but was interrupted by Pei Haonan's cell phone ringing. He made an apology gesture, picked up the phone, put it to his lips, and said lightly, "Say."
Yin Xiaoxiao's voice was so calm that she floated over from the other side, "I'm already downstairs, where are you?"
Suddenly, Pei Haonan's eyebrows wrinkled, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
One hour and fifteen minutes, how did she... do it?
"Oh...I saw you!" Yin Xiaoxiao hung up the phone in a hurry.
"Hao..." Seeing a trace of anger flashing across Pei Haonan's face, Veronica was startled and she couldn't help but become cautious.
Before Pei Haonan could say anything, Veronica heard a voice not far away shouting loudly, "Pei Haonan..."
Following the voice, she looked over and saw a woman walking over quickly.
The reason why she came over was because she seemed to be protecting the things in her hands.
After a moment, the woman stood in front of them, holding up the things in her hands, panting and looking at Pei Haonan, "I... I... I brought... something... over... a copy of Tiffany's
Black coffee, two portions of Christiana's mousse cake, a bag of Airlandi's special sugar cubes..."
Pei Haonan's face was gloomy, his eyes glanced at the things in her hands, and finally fell on her face, "You are quite fast."
"Where...where..." Yin Xiaoxiao finally calmed her breathing, sent the things and the remaining money to him, and said, "Sign for it."
"Ding ding ding..." Pei Haonan's cell phone rang again, and he picked it up expressionlessly. Black Panther reported a few words in a deep voice, and his face suddenly turned darker.
Yin Xiaoxiao still had a smile on her face.
Of course she knew why his face looked so ugly.
If it were her, she would probably be very upset if she failed to punish him.
However, who failed to determine the rules of the competition and let her take advantage of it?
Pei Haonan's eyes were gloomy, and his cold gaze fell on Yin Xiaoxiao, "You are quite smart, and you also know how to order takeout."
"Thank you, Mr. Pei," Yin Xiaoxiao deliberately showed a humble smile and said, if you hadn't always taught me by words and deeds, how would I have known that money is omnipotent!"
Hearing this, Pei Haonan's handsome face shrouded in the sun took on a dangerous aura. His eyes raised and shot towards Yin Xiaoxiao so coldly that even Veronica standing aside noticed it.
chill.
However, Yin Xiaoxiao turned a blind eye and looked at Veronica, a complicated look flashed in her eyes, the corners of her lips were slightly raised again, and she said briskly, "Mr. Pei has guests, I won't interrupt, goodbye.
!”
After that, without waiting for Pei Haonan to say anything, he flew out of their sight.
Of course, you have to run faster and achieve your goal. Are you waiting for Pei Haonan to react and regret it, or kill someone with his eyes?
As long as he sees his angry and forbearing look at this moment, Yin Xiaoxiao is already very, very satisfied!
Want to threaten her, huh! Does he think his IQ is still at the same level as six years ago?
Seeing Yin Xiaoxiao's back disappear, Pei Haonan's forehead veins bulged slightly and he clenched his fists tightly.
It was actually resolved by her!
Thinking that the method of torturing her that he had just thought of suddenly lost the opportunity to use it, Pei Haonan felt particularly unhappy...
"Ah...I remember who she is..." Veronica's voice sounded softly from the side.
Although full of anger, Pei Haonan still restrained the emotions on his face and looked at Veronica expressionlessly.
"Sahui Suzuki, right? Her name is Sayah Suzuki. She also participated in Keldi Company's competition this time, but she was disqualified because she changed to a smaller model without permission." Veronica said while observing Pei Haonan.
I found that his eyes were calm and he was a little confused.
Don’t most men hate scandals? What’s more, he is also the CEO of Eggers!
But it doesn't matter, she immediately showed a confused expression, "I heard that the little model she put on is her son, but isn't she Japanese? How can she speak Chinese?"
Seeing Pei Haonan's eyes darken, Veronica felt secretly happy. Even if she didn't care about the situation in front of her, few people were willing to be a cheap dad!
"Veronica, are you very concerned about the personal affairs of these contestants?" Pei Haonan's voice was calm, making it impossible to guess what he meant.
Veronica was stunned for a moment, then a smile immediately appeared on her face, "I am a judge of the competition, and I only care about their designs. The reason why I know this is because I discovered her changing models..."
Pei Haonan didn't listen to what she finished, but said coldly, "I still have something to do, please do it yourself."
After that, he turned around and was about to leave...
"Hao..." Veronica stopped him nervously. Then she realized her gaffe and quickly smiled and said, "I just want to ask you, will you go to the celebration party next week?"
Pei Haonan paused, "Will you go?"
Hearing this, Veronica felt happy and had a good premonition, "It will..."
"Be my female companion!" Pei Haonan responded lightly and left without looking back.
