The agent took her mobile phone, dialed the number of the Global President Office, and handed it to her: "You know what to do, right?"
Pei Xiao took the phone anxiously, not thinking about how to speak. Fortunately, the voice that came over the phone was not Xi Xiangdong's. Lin Xiangyuan said in a business-like tone: "Hello, this is the Global President's Office. May I ask if you have any questions?
Do you want to make a reservation?"
Pei Xiao calmed down: "Secretary Lin... I am Pei Xiao."
"Oh... Miss Pei," Secretary Lin paused, then told her directly as if he knew her intention, "Mr. Xi is not here right now. If you have anything to do, I can convey it to you."
Pei Xiao raised her head and glanced at the manager in embarrassment. The manager kept winking at her, so she could only say slowly: "When will Mr. Xi come back? How about I go to the company and wait for him?"
Lin Xiangyuan was noncommittal on the phone: "I don't know about that. But Mr. Xi is very busy with work today. I don't know if he has time to see you."
"It's okay, I can wait."
The agent sent her to the Global Building and asked at the front desk. As expected, Xi Xiangdong was not there. Because she had been here last time, the front desk lady still remembered her, so she politely took her to the sofa in the living room and gave her another bath.
Had a cup of hot coffee.
Unexpectedly, she had to wait all morning. Seeing that during the lunch break, all the employees in the building went down to eat, and her manager called her to ask about the situation. She just sighed: "I haven't seen anyone at all..."
The front desk should have told Xi Xiangdong the news she was waiting for, but he never showed up. Listening to Lin Xiangyuan's tone on the phone, it seemed that Xi Xiangdong didn't want to see her, and "busy work" was an excuse. If he continued to wait like this, he would just
Waiting in vain...
Pei Xiao stood up and walked to the window. It was raining heavily outside and the wind was blowing hard. It looked like it was going to rain heavily.
Suddenly, she saw Xi Xiangdong's car in the square at the bottom of the building!
The driver held an umbrella with one hand and opened the door for him with the other. He was wearing a black suit, and his tall figure disappeared into the building in an instant.
Pei Xiao hurriedly ran out of the waiting room and pressed the elevator button desperately.
The elevator door opened, and a familiar handsome face appeared in front of him, with clear and gentle features...
Suddenly, Pei Xiao straightened his back.
Come late!
Why did he appear here?
Obviously, Xi Wanlai also had the same question. In addition to surprise, there was also a hint of surprise in his gentle eyes: "Miss Pei? What a coincidence."
"Oh... uh... I'm looking for someone..." Pei Xiao replied confusedly. Seeing that the elevator door was about to close in front of her, Xi Wanlai stretched out her arm to block it, and asked gentlemanly: "Why don't you come up?
?”
"Oh." Pei Xiao walked in, met his eyes, immediately lowered her head, stood in the corner like a little daughter-in-law, lowered her eyebrows and looked down.
Xi Wanlai curled her lips, pressed the button for her, and asked with a smile: "Has Miss Pei seen the person she is looking for?"
Fascinated by the man's smile, Pei Xiao shook his head forgetfully.
I just heard him say again: "I don't know who the person you are looking for is, maybe I can help."
Thinking of Xi Xiangdong, Pei Xiao finally came to his senses, waved his hand quickly and said, "It doesn't matter, I can handle it myself."
Xi Wanlai pursed her lips and smiled, and stopped asking any more questions.
When the elevator arrived on the first floor, Pei Xiao saw from a distance Xi Xiangdong, who was being followed by his secretary and walking towards him in the lobby. He immediately dropped Xi Wanlai beside him and rushed up: "Mr. Xi, please wait a moment -"
