Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 59 You are my blessing

As it was time to leave work, the company's employees gradually left the high-rise building. In the elevator going down from the twentieth floor, only Pei Ming and Du Lian remained.

Du Lian stood behind Pei Ming, seizing every minute to report his achievements to Pei Ming.

"I've checked all of Ming's Group's subsidiaries. Should all those that have business dealings with Pengyi be shut down?"

"Is that even a question?" Pei Ming gave Du Lian a knowing look.

There was no one else in the elevator, so Du Lian didn't need to be very respectful to Pei Ming. "You're the boss, of course I need your personal answer before I can proceed with the next step."

Pei Ming nodded, feigning helplessness. "Yes, you can do it tomorrow."

"Alright, I love doing things that harm others but benefit myself." Du Lian's face already showed a satisfied smile after getting the job done.

Seeing the smug smile on Du Lian's face, Pei Mingcai decided not to indulge him. "By the way, I have something to tell you."

"what's up?"

"Uncle Cai asked me for leave this afternoon. He's going on vacation, and I don't know how long he wants to take it. You'll have to work hard in the days to come." Pei Ming said, giving a forced, insincere smile.

"Ah!!??" The smile on Du Lian's face had vanished, replaced by a huge bitter face.

"What 'ah'? Young people should work hard." Pei Ming deliberately adopted the capitalist's approach.

"Are you trying to kill me with your efforts? I'm already doing the work of both Cao Cao's camp and the Han Dynasty!"

The elevator opened with a ding, and Pei Ming and Du Lian stepped out one after the other. Then, Du Lian opened the back door of the car for Pei Ming.

After Du Lian opened the driver's side door and got in, Pei Ming said casually, "I saw that a new residential building opened in Linjiang District these past two days. Go and pick one out."

"Are you serious?" Du Lian didn't expect Pei Ming to try to shut him up with real estate.

Pei Ming responded softly, "Mm."

"I think you only arranged this house for me because you want your wife to stay in Jiangcheng wholeheartedly, hoping that I will also stay in Jiangcheng wholeheartedly."

Pei Ming's little scheme was immediately seen through by Du Lian, who calmly asked the person in front of him, "What, you're not willing?"

"Then I'm going to pick the most expensive one with the best view. I'm going to rip you off."

Du Lian did not answer Pei Ming's question directly, but his answer already indicated that he was willing to stay in Jiangcheng with Pei Ming.

"If you find a good match in Jiangcheng, it would be nice to settle down here," Pei Ming said with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

However, Du Lian was a little resistant to the phrase "finding a good match." He quickly shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'd better just focus on making money. Making money is easier."

Since Du Lian wasn't interested in the topic, Pei Ming didn't continue. Watching the car drive out of the underground parking lot, Pei Ming spoke again, "You can leave once you've taken me to the hospital."

"Go visit your father-in-law and bring your daughter home while you're at it?" Du Lian asked casually.

"Mmm," Pei Ming responded softly.

When Ming Weiyi was mentioned again, Du Lian couldn't help but laugh. He suddenly remembered what Ming Weiyi had said at the police station earlier that day.

"What are you laughing at?" Pei Ming asked, puzzled.

"Today, Miss said that guy down there was talking about mountain roads and washing machines, it was so funny, God knows how much effort I had to put in to hold back my laughter."

This reminded Pei Ming of what Ming Weiyi had said earlier that day, and he couldn't help but laugh. "I really didn't expect her to be so sharp-tongued."

"Haha, I'm really curious now, how does Miss Ming evaluate you?" Du Lian asked Pei Ming this question on purpose, wanting to encourage Pei Ming to ask Ming Weiyi.

"She must have nothing but praise for me! How could she possibly find fault with me?" Pei Ming tried his best to prove that he was absolutely flawless in Ming Weiyi's eyes, even though he felt a little guilty.

Du Liancai ignored Pei Ming's confidence and deliberately said, "Okay, okay... I hope so."

"Just drive and don't talk!" The more guilty a person is, the more likely they are to pretend to be angry.

The roads are always congested during rush hour, and the sun is gradually setting.

After a busy day, Tang Ying was finally able to leave work.

Just as Tang Ying walked out of the doctor's on-call room with her casual fanny pack, several doctors and nurses who usually worked with her were already standing at the door waiting for her.

"What are you doing?" Tang Ying asked curiously.

"Let's go grab a bite to eat and have a couple of drinks together." One of the young women grabbed Tang Ying's hand, making it clear that she wasn't allowed to refuse.

"You've been wronged today, let's all keep you company, chat and have a drink."

"By the way, we'll take you home later, so that that bastard won't be waiting for you downstairs and then get revenge."

The chatter of her colleagues warmed Tang Ying's heart. She hadn't cried despite the anger she had suffered today, but now her eyes involuntarily reddened.

Seeing that Tang Ying was about to cry, a male colleague deliberately teased, "Dr. Tang, hold on! You're the unkillable cockroach in our emergency room, don't make us look down on you."

"that is!"

"I've prepared some gossip for you, I'll tell you about it later."

"Okay!" Faced with her colleagues' friendliness, Tang Ying quickly held back the tears that were about to fall. She couldn't cry in front of her classmates, otherwise they would tease her for a year!
In the hospital's underground parking lot, Pei Ming took Ming Weiyi's car keys and got into the driver's seat, while Ming Weiyi sat down next to him.

As soon as he sat down, Pei Ming thought of what Du Lian had said. He glanced at Ming Weiyi, looking very cautious.

"Weiwei, your description of that guy with the lower head today was really accurate and hilarious."

Mingwei was also a little confused, "Why did you suddenly bring this up?"

"I'd really like to know, how would you describe me?"

Pei Ming's question caught Ming Wei off guard. She didn't know why Pei Ming suddenly asked such a question, but she still thought about it seriously.

"I think you're a really good person, and you're excellent in every way. It's my blessing to have you." To connect with what she said at noon, Ming Wei added the word "blessing".

"I knew you'd think highly of me." Pei Ming smiled with relief, a hint of smugness in his smile.

From Pei Ming's smile, Ming Wei also sensed something was wrong. She pointed at Pei Ming and asked, "Tell me, did someone tell you to ask me this?"

Pei Ming didn't hide anything from Ming Weiyi. He replied calmly, "Du Lian doesn't believe you'll say anything nice about me, so of course I have to prove him right."

It turned out that Pei Ming's question was just an attempt to prove that his judgment was correct. Ming Wei burst out laughing, "Hahaha... You're so childish!"

At this moment, Mingwei suddenly felt that besides being outstanding in every aspect, Pei Ming was also quite adorable.
