Chapter 212 Don't Just Look at a Man's Face (Pei Yan)

"Who knows!" he interrupted hastily. "She's probably just making things up."

Little did he know that Shen Zhaoyi behind him almost burst out laughing when she heard those words.

I haven't even said what Xiaoyuan did yet, and this person is already willingly biting the hook! Really!

After calming herself down, she continued, "So you don't want me to go to Hong Kong?"

"Where you go is your freedom."

"Alright then." Shen Zhaoyi opened her bag and rummaged through it for a while. "Then I'll cancel the plane ticket now."

Pei Yan immediately turned around, his face filled with disbelief, "You've already bought the tickets?"

Then I saw her take out a powder compact, sit there, and look at herself in the mirror with a look of amusement.

Has this person been tricked again?

Realizing this, Pei Yan turned to leave in anger, but Shen Zhaoyi reached out and patted the empty seat next to her, saying, "Come sit down. My neck is getting tired from standing like this all the time."

My mind was initially inclined to refuse.

But this foot seemed to have its own mind, and it stepped directly in that direction.

By the time Pei Yan came to her senses, the man was already sitting next to her.

I could faintly smell a jasmine fragrance; it seemed like I had changed my perfume.

"So," Shen Zhaoyi turned to look at him, "what is your purpose in insisting that I go to Hong Kong?"

She didn't believe that Pei Yan went to Xiao Yuan's expense twice just to get her to watch the game live.

The man replied in a very calm tone, "I want you to see how Chen Hong and Yi Ling are performing, just like when you paid for my parking space. You yourself said that with an investment, of course you have to see the results."

"I just want to tell you that I'm not the kind of person who uses my position as the manager of the racing team to put people in through connections. They are genuinely capable."

Of course, there are other reasons, but he doesn't want to talk about them for the time being.

Shen Zhaoyi didn't expect that even though half a month had passed since the contract was stamped, Pei Yan was still agonizing over this matter.

Does it really matter whether you have connections or not?
Anyway, he's already made a lot of money from the cashback after taking over the fleet, so as long as he doesn't do anything outrageous, he can do whatever he wants with it.

Seeing his serious expression, Shen Zhaoyi suddenly leaned closer and called out, "Pei Yan."

"Is it really because of them that they insisted I go?"

"Of course!" Despite being suspected, Pei Yan remained defiant.

Little did he know, his little emotions were written all over his face and could be easily seen through.

Shen Zhaoyi really didn't understand, was it so difficult to just admit it openly?
It's not that we can't go to the port city, but we'll have to adjust our plans. The current priority is to meet men, and we'll put the travel plans aside for now.

After all, if you spend a few days in one place and visit another tourist attraction, without following the main storyline, the few readers you have will definitely all leave.

But we can't let Pei Yan achieve his goal so easily.

Shen Zhaoyi frowned, feigning difficulty, "I might not have time."

"are you busy?"

"Very busy."

Whether it was her imagination or not, Shen Zhaoyi saw Pei Yan roll her eyes slightly after hearing her answer.

Even if it's just for a moment.

I thought he would ask what I was busy with, but what I got in return was: "Busy dating a streamer?"

Shen Zhaoyi: ?

Why is he speaking with that slightly disdainful tone?
Did this person also watch the live stream last night?

In response, Pei Yan said, "I'm not that free."

If it weren't for Zhou Yiling, he probably wouldn't have clicked on the relevant entries.

The edited video, with its scenes of holding hands and whispering, coupled with the excessive interpretations by marketing accounts, did indeed appear quite ambiguous.

Pei Yan knew Shen Zhaoyi from a live stream; she had given gifts to many other streamers. With such generosity, she was sure many people would have ulterior motives.

That guy named Mumu is really weird.

"You have to keep your eyes open when looking for a man, don't just look at his face."

That's what Pei Yan said back when he first saw Su Ye.

Compared to his earnest words, Shen Zhaoyi really wanted to say, "If you don't care about looks, what do you care about?"

Being handsome is temporary, but being ugly is for life.

Then she realized that Pei Yan seemed to have an unusually high tolerance for the change of her male companion.
However, some things still need to be clarified.

Shen Zhaoyi corrected his previous description, "I'm not in a relationship."

"And you two?" Pei Yan gestured with his hands.

In his view, such presumptuous behavior would not occur in normal interactions between men and women.

Shen Zhaoyi understood what he meant; in reality, she and Mu Mu were not exactly innocent.

"Just consider me his creditor."

That's right, I just lent out five million this morning, which is perfectly reasonable.

Upon hearing this number, Pei Yan felt an urge to pry open her head and see what was inside.

"You think you can just lend me this much money like that?"

"They have their difficulties."

Shen Zhaoyi didn't really care about the money, since it was all a reward from the system anyway. But seeing Pei Yan's anxious expression, she still mentioned the contract.

Helping people escape the exploitation of unscrupulous companies is doing a good deed!

"You're quite kind."

Pei Yan said this, but in his heart he was already cursing it out.

Even if you're rich, you can't spend money like that. These days, besides winning the lottery, what other job can easily earn you five million?
It seems we'll never get that money back.

Let's just say you can't judge a book by its cover. Throughout history, which "savior of prostitutes" has ever had a good outcome?

Clearly, Pei Yan had forgotten that his situation was similar to Mu Mu's at the time.

Shen Zhaoyi knew his thoughts, but did not entirely agree with them.

Firstly, the money comes from the system, so I don't lose anything. In fact, I can even make a profit while gaining a favor.

Secondly, Mumu just messaged me saying that the contract was successfully terminated and that she wanted to have dinner with me tonight to discuss the repayment.

Since he dared to ask for this number, he must have left himself a way out.

Shen Zhaoyi felt this was a bit unnecessary, since she had previously spent ten times more money in the live stream.

But Mumu clearly distinguished between the two situations.

Tipping is a voluntary gift, while borrowing is a debt with a clear price tag.

Although he was somewhat stubborn, Shen Zhaoyi went along with him.

The location for dinner has been sent; it's near the live-streaming company. Judging by the time, heading there now is perfect.

Seeing her get up, Pei Yan called out to her, "Are you leaving?"

"Yes, I have to keep an appointment."

It didn't say who it was with.

But Pei Yan guessed it must be with that Mu Mu, and his tone immediately became a bit somber: "You've only been here for less than half an hour, and Xiao Yuan hasn't even come back yet."

"Why are you waiting for Xiaoyuan?" Shen Zhaoyi asked, puzzled. "I came to see you."

"What's so interesting about me..."
