A woman's sweet and coquettish voice sounded in the suite.
All the opening remarks that had been brewing and ready to be spoken were instantly choked in Bai Xiao's throat.
"Huh? Not a hotel waiter?"
Pei Qiyou's arm was held by Bai Xi's delicate hand.
Bai Xiao's eyes fell on the woman standing next to Pei Qiyou.
Wearing the same hotel bathrobe, her long chestnut curly hair was dripping with water, and the scent of the same shower gel as Pei Qiyou's came to her face.
As for that face, how could Bai Xiao not recognize it?
New actress Shu Xia, who became famous last year for a time-travel drama, is said to have been nominated for the Golden Bear Award for Best Actress at the Berlin Film Festival a few days ago with a new film. But how did she and Pei Qiyou meet?
Looking at the two people standing together as if they were wearing couple's bathrobes, Bai Xiao squeezed the paper bag and folder harder.
Since he has an appointment with a beautiful woman tonight, why would he call her over?
"Who is this?" Shu Xia looked at Bai Xiao curiously.
Pei Qiyou did not miss the changes in Bai Xiao's expression, from her shyness and nervousness when he opened the door to her surprise when she found out there was another woman in the room, especially the embarrassment that flashed across her face because of Shu Xia's question.
, he raised the corners of his mouth mockingly.
He hugged Shu Xia's waist affectionately and kissed her forehead: "This is my special assistant."
"Is it really just a special assistant?" Shu Xia glanced at Bai Xiao, who was standing outside the door, and gave him a soft slap on the shoulder.
"Otherwise, what else do you think it could be?"
Pei Qiyou chuckled and turned to look at Bai Xiao: "Did I ask you to send me the necklace?"
…
After all these years of hard work, it was not until this moment that Bai Xiao realized that he had not developed an indestructible heart after all.
Pei Qiyou's casual tone and Shu Xia's waiting and expectant eyes were like thin blades piercing her heart.
The necklace and cold pendant hidden under the scarf were like scarlet cigarette butts burning on her skin.
Bai Xiao suddenly realized that his appearance here was already a stupid joke.
Why should we foolishly hold out hope for a result that should have been expected long ago, thinking, thinking that he...
"Is it in this bag?"
Shu Xia said and was about to snatch the paper bag from Bai Xiao's hand.
Bai Xiao subconsciously took a step back, and the paper bag was tightly clenched by her, "The necklace is not in it."
"Where is that?" Shu Xia stared at the bag, obviously not believing what Bai Xiao said.
Bai Xiao looked straight at Pei Qiyou, suppressing the bitterness and self-deprecation in his heart, and replied: "I forgot to bring it."
"Forgot it?!"
Shu Xia suddenly changed her face, crossed her hands across her chest, and sneered: "Then why didn't you forget yourself?"
That was the necklace that she fell in love with when she was shopping in Berlin. It was because of that necklace that Pei Qiyou met her. Pei Qiyou was interested in her, and a businessman with extraordinary abilities like Pei Qiyou also attracted her. After dinner, she came up to the hotel room.
It was a natural thing, but I didn’t expect that a little assistant ruined the fun!
