Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 115 You really are a cunning old fox

On a weekday morning, there are fewer vehicles heading to the airport, and the good weather along the way makes drivers feel relaxed.

The black sedan had already passed through the bustling city center. The suburbs offered a wide-open view, and the blue sky and dense white clouds were finally no longer blocked by tall buildings.

In the back seat of the vehicle, Pei Ming frowned slightly as he swallowed, the pain in his throat making him reluctant to speak.

However, before going to the capital, he had to say a few words to Du Lian.

"Du Lian, President Fu knows my whereabouts. If there are any issues at the company, just contact him."

Pei Ming's voice was a little hoarse, and Ming Wei, who was sitting next to him, gently held Pei Ming's hand.

"If your throat hurts, don't talk. Just type it out on WeChat and send it to Du Lian later."

"What's wrong with President Pei? Is he sick?" Du Lian was a little surprised. No wonder Pei Ming was silent when he saw him this morning. He thought the couple had quarreled again.

"Of course, it's because the river breeze was nice a few days ago, and we drank a lot of wine. Now we're getting our comeuppance." Ming Wei tilted her head and teased Pei Ming with a smile.

Pei Ming's face showed obvious helplessness. He endured the pain of a knife cutting his throat and still managed to say what he was saying.

"This matter is over..."

Du Lian understood that Ming Wei was deliberately teasing Pei Ming, and he said with a smile, "President Pei, please stop talking, or you'll turn into An Lingrong."

Mingwei wasn't about to let Pei Ming off the hook either; she burst out laughing, "Hahaha... Baojuan... my throat!"

"I'll go with you..."

Before Pei Ming could finish speaking, Ming Weiyi leaned over and covered his mouth. From Pei Ming's resentful eyes, Ming Weiyi could understand what he wanted to say.

He was simply saying, "I was feeling unwell but I still accompanied you on this business trip, and you and Du Lian are making fun of me!"
"Be good, don't talk, drink more water and take your medicine later."

In the rearview mirror, Ming Weiyi was leaning against Pei Ming, and she spoke to him in a very gentle and doting tone.

Du Lian could tell at a glance that the two of them no longer needed to test each other and had already opened their hearts to each other.

As Pei Ming's assistant, someone who followed him around all day, Du Lian was happy for Pei Ming that he was finally able to be with the person he loved.

Ming Group
The planning department and general manager's office are on the twelfth floor.

Outside the window, the bustling traffic and towering buildings showcased the city's prosperity. In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Fu Baiqing held a freshly brewed cup of tea, his eyes seemingly gazing at the distant scenery.

There is a philosophy in tea, and the philosophy is in tea. Take a sip of tea in peace amidst the hustle and bustle, and the aroma of tea will bring you tranquility.

Fu Baiqing knew that this peaceful scene could only last for a while, so after finishing his tea, he walked towards his desk.

He put down his teacup and picked up his phone from the table, then sent a WeChat message to Luo Zhi.

"Pei Ming is arriving in the capital today; he will definitely meet with the female celebrity."

Less than three minutes later, Fu Baiqing received Luo Zhi's reply on his phone.

"This is wonderful news!"

"Whether we can take any useful photos depends on you, Mr. Luo."

Since Pei Ming had chosen to go with the flow, Fu Baiqing knew he would not disappoint Luo Zhi.

After relaying Pei Ming's whereabouts to Luo Zhi, Fu Baiqing switched the WeChat chat window to Pei Ming's. He guessed that Pei Ming was probably on a plane right now.

"President Pei, I have delivered the message. Now it's up to you."

There's a premonition that the Ming Group, which has only recently stabilized, is about to be plunged into another storm, and this storm will also involve Ming Weiyi.

Ming Family
In the magnificent house, the once bustling home now seemed even more desolate under the empty space. Without Ming Wei and Ming Chengze's commotion, Yan Jie finally had some peace and quiet, and all that remained was longing.

Fortunately, Yan Jie was busy accompanying Minghui with his rehabilitation training every day, so she didn't have much time to miss her two children.

"Weiwei...how have you been lately?" In the rehabilitation room, Minghui was already able to stand up by holding onto the handrail by the wall. He chatted with Yan Jie as he slowly moved forward.

Yan Jie supported Ming Hui with one hand, and she walked very slowly. "I heard that the company arranged for her to go on a business trip to Beijing, and she will be back in a few days."

"Tell her to...be careful."

Compared to the previous month, Minghui's speech was much clearer, and he didn't have as much difficulty speaking.

"Don't worry, Pei Ming went with her."

Minghui nodded. "Okay, I'm relieved to have Pei Ming here."

"The company's recent development has been on an upward trend. I have to say, Pei Ming is more capable than you." Yan Jie said with a smile. This world is destined to belong to the young.

Hearing Yan Jie say that she was not as good as Pei Ming, Ming Hui smiled with relief, "Luckily, I knew how to choose people back then."

"I wonder if Weiwei has learned anything from Pei Ming. After all, the Ming Group belongs to the Ming family."

Yan Jie's words made Ming Hui's smile gradually disappear: "I believe Weiwei, she knows what she's doing."

"It's true that Weiwei is more reliable than Chengze. Your hard work will depend on her from now on."

"As long as... Pei Ming is by Weiwei's side, he will help Weiwei."

These words didn't sound like a nice thing, and Yan Jie smiled again, "Wouldn't we be considered as taking advantage of Pei Ming's feelings?"

"use?"

"Ah."

"Won't Weiwei's future... future children have the surname Pei?" Minghui looked at Yan Jie earnestly, yet with a hint of a smile.

Yan Jie understood the smile in Ming Hui's eyes. "You really are a cunning old fox, using your daughter and future grandson as bargaining chips to firmly bind Pei Ming and the Ming Group together."

Minghui smiled and said nothing, continuing to walk forward.

Even if feelings change in the future, the bond between blood relatives will never change. As long as Ming Wei gives birth to the Pei family's child and leaves the child in the Ming family, the Pei family and the Ming family will always be intertwined.

Ming Group, First Floor Lobby

At the front desk, Qi Fei took an email from the receptionist, thanked her, and then headed towards the elevator.

A minute later, the elevator came up from the underground parking lot. As soon as the elevator doors opened, Qi Fei saw familiar faces.

"Du Lian, I ran into you in the elevator again."

There was no one else in the elevator, so Qi Fei didn't treat Du Lian with any formality.

"What a coincidence." As Du Lian spoke, he had already pressed the button for the twelfth floor for Qi Fei.

At this moment, Du Lian came in from the parking lot. Qi Fei looked at Du Lian, trying to make conversation, and asked, "Were you out running errands for President Pei again?"

"President Pei went to Beijing today, and I just saw him off at the airport." Du Lian casually mentioned Pei Ming's itinerary, knowing that Qi Fei was a gossip.

"What a coincidence, Xiaoming just went to the airport too, and he's also going to Beijing. Could they be on the same flight?"

Du Lian chuckled to himself, "What a coincidence. Maybe Xiao Ming will really run into President Pei."

Couldn't Qi Fei be a little bolder with her mind? Why doesn't she dare to think that Pei Ming is with Ming Weiyi?

"You know President Pei's flight information, right?" Qi Fei knew she shouldn't pry into the privacy of the company's senior executives, but she just couldn't help being gossipy.

Du Lian took out his phone and found Pei Ming's flight information. At the same time, Qi Fei also opened the flight information that Ming Weiyi had sent her earlier.

The two compared their information, and Qi Fei immediately lost her composure. "Holy crap! What a coincidence!"
