Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 114 I'm willing to follow my senior sister

"Daddy's home! Daddy..."

In the living room, the little girl was sitting on the carpet playing with Barbie dolls. When she saw Fu Baiqing return, she happily ran towards him.

Fu Baiqing knelt down and lovingly hugged his daughter, "Yuanyuan, did you listen to Mommy today?"

"Yes! Dad, you can finally play with me today!"

Fu Baiqing being able to come home before Yuanyuan goes to sleep is enough to make a child her age happy for a long time.

Just as Fu Baiqing was about to pick up his daughter, his phone rang.

He picked up his phone and glanced at it. The call was from Luo Zhi of Zhuozheng Group.

"Hello, what can I do for you, Mr. Luo?" Fu Baiqing said, gesturing for the housekeeper to take Yuanyuan away.

"What have you thought about what I told you last time?"

"Could it be that you really have a good idea?" Fu Baiqing said as he walked towards the study.

"My people have made some new discoveries in the last few days."

"What new discovery?"

"Didn't a female celebrity visit your Ming Group a couple of days ago? And she even caused a scandal."

It was clear that Luo Zhi knew something, so Fu Baiqing continued to ask, "The scandal you mentioned refers to her and Pei Ming?"

Luo Zhi chuckled on the other end of the phone, "I paid to restore that photo by the river. The person having an affair with the female celebrity is none other than your CEO Pei."

"No way?" This was something Fu Baiqing had expected, and he pretended to be incredulous.

“If you are willing to cooperate with me, this photo will definitely be useful.”

In Luo Zhi's mind, Pei Ming was the son-in-law of the Ming Group. If he had an extramarital affair with a female celebrity, it would definitely cause a huge uproar in Jiangcheng, and the Ming family would lose face.

"Okay, let's cooperate then. I'll wait for your good news."

Now that things have come to this, if Fu Baiqing refuses Luo Zhi again, he might miss a great opportunity.

He wanted to see what kind of dirty tricks Zhuozheng Group was up to.

"Okay, you must let me know if there are any new developments with your CEO, Mr. Pei."

Finally, Fu Baiqing agreed to cooperate, and Luo Zhi's plan to win Fu Baiqing over was halfway complete.

At night, the lights of the high-rise buildings outside the window reflect each other, and all the buildings display uniform colors and animations under intelligent control.

"You still haven't told me, what made you so angry that you laughed?" Ming Weiyi ate the wild mushrooms in her bowl, not forgetting to ask Tang Ying for gossip.

Even the incredibly delicious mushroom soup couldn't mask Tang Ying's anger. "Today we rescued a young man who suffered cardiac arrest. We risked our lives to save him, and when his father came, he demanded compensation for the clothes that were torn on his body!"

Mingwei put down her bowl and asked incredulously, "What kind of clothes are they? Are they made of gold?"

Tang Ying rolled her eyes. "His dad said his clothes are Armani."

"Armani? That's all?" Ming Wei's speechless gaze was tinged with disdain.

Lu Xiao shrugged, quite calmly, "Forget it, consider it a loss to avoid further trouble."

This result was beyond Ming Weiyi's comprehension; she simply couldn't believe it.

"So, you really lost money?"

"I'll compensate you, otherwise that uncle would have kept causing trouble in our emergency room." Lu Xiao said, and gentlemanly served Tang Ying and Ming Wei a bowl of mushroom soup each.

"If you hadn't stopped me today, I definitely would have had a serious talk with him!" Tang Ying was even angrier when she thought about how she hadn't performed well today.

"Senior sister, that uncle is obviously an unreasonable person, and his attitude was terrible at the time. If he had gotten angry and lay down on the ground, you would have been finished."

“Your junior brother is right. Given your temper, it’s right for him to stop you.”

"Right, I stopped you because I was worried something might happen to you."

The two of them were exchanging barbs, and Tang Ying glared at Lu Xiao and then at Ming Weiyi.

"You two are just trying to say that I have a bad temper, right?" Lu Xiao quickly shook her head. "No, no, senior sister, you are the girl with the best temper in the whole world."

Ming Wei raised an eyebrow slightly. "Her?"

"Yes, my senior sister was quite patient when she was guiding me through my research projects."

When the topic of research came up, Mingwei suddenly remembered something. "I heard from your senior that you are quite academically gifted. How come your doctoral supervisor was willing to let you come here to work with Tang Ying?"

Tang Ying didn't like hearing that, and she glanced sideways at Ming Weiyi.

Am I bad, or is our hospital bad?

Before Ming Wei could respond to Tang Ying, Lu Xiao smiled and said, "Gold shines wherever it is, and I'm willing to follow Senior Sister."

"Hmm, young man, you have good taste."

Mingwei also looked at Lu Xiao with an admiring gaze, as if she had already guessed something.

In particular, Pei Ming's initial visit to Jiangcheng gave her a clue, as Lu Xiao had also come to Jiangcheng from another city to develop her career.

However, as Tang Ying's best friend, Ming Wei knew that Tang Ying was not interested in romantic relationships, so Lu Xiao was destined to suffer.

The next day, Ming's Group
Early in the morning, Fu Baiqing learned that Pei Ming was at the company today, so he called and arranged to meet with Pei Ming.

Pei Ming was also curious about what important matter Fu Baiqing had that required him to rush to see him.

Less than ten minutes later, Fu Baiqing sat down opposite Pei Ming. Across the desk, they exchanged a polite greeting.

"Mr. Fu, what's the rush? What do you need me for?"

"President Pei, I think I've guessed something."

"What is it?" Pei Ming asked calmly, looking at Fu Baiqing with a peaceful expression.

"The one who spread rumors about the Ming Group last time might have been the Zhuozheng Group." Fu Baiqing subconsciously lowered his voice, knowing he shouldn't say things like that carelessly.

Hearing what Fu Baiqing said, Pei Ming didn't seem surprised at all. He calmly said, "I also know that they contacted you privately."

Pei Ming hadn't expected Fu Baiqing to mention Zhuozheng Group today; he had originally planned to see how Fu Baiqing would react.

Pei Ming's words surprised Fu Baiqing. "It seems you know everything. I'm curious how you know?"

“I have my own ways, but I’m a little surprised that you came to see me today.”

Pei Ming recalled the task he had asked He Lin to do, and He Lin had indeed found out useful information for Pei Ming.

"I have already agreed to cooperate with the people from Zhuozheng Group, and my goal is to remove you from your position so that I can take your place."

Fu Baiqing spoke casually, and he leaned back in his chair with a relaxed air.

Pei Ming immediately understood what Fu Baiqing meant, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"In this matter, I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Fu, to put in a lot of effort and try to infiltrate the enemy's ranks as soon as possible."

It seems Pei Ming understands his thoughts well. Fu Baiqing smiled with satisfaction, "It's so easy to talk to smart people."

"Once it's done, I'll issue a personnel transfer order, and your position will be second only to mine." Pei Ming didn't mince words; he wouldn't let Fu Baiqing work for nothing.

"But what exactly is going on between you and that female celebrity? Does Vivi know?"

Fu Baiqing deliberately brought up Xia Wanfeng, using this topic to remind Pei Ming that this was the new trick that Zhuozheng Group had come up with.

Pei Ming naturally understood the hidden meaning in Fu Baiqing's words: "She knows that Xia Wanfeng and I are just friends, so there won't be any trouble on her end."

"That's fine then, I'll get back to work."

"Mr. Fu, take care."

Having finished speaking and received the promise he wanted, Fu Baiqing stood up, straightened his suit, and left Pei Ming's office.

I had some things to do today, so the update is a little late.
