At noon that day, I had just finished my meal and returned to the counter when I saw Pei Chenyi standing in front of us, looking anxious.
"Yao Yao, please help me out."
I was taken aback. "What's wrong?"
Pei Chenyi pointed behind him. "There are media reporters chasing me. Can I hide in your Estee conference room for a bit?"
I followed the direction of Pei Chenyi's finger and indeed saw several men in work uniforms approaching with cameras and microphones.
I couldn't help but frown. "Our conference room is generally only accessible to VIPs from your company; it might not be appropriate for you to go in."
Pei Chenyi grabbed my hand. "Please make an exception. Next time you negotiate a collaboration with Manager Qin Jin, I will definitely support you wholeheartedly."
Hearing this made me hesitate.
Although the business collaboration with Du Mei and Zhang Qiang had ended, it didn't mean I wouldn't have opportunities in the future. If I could gain Pei Chenyi's support, it might yield better results with less effort.
"Alright, but you need to come out quickly; otherwise, I'll get scolded by the store manager."
Pei Chenyi nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry, I'll be quick."
Watching Pei Chenyi enter the conference room, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the store manager had gone to the hallway for a meeting; otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to let him in so boldly.
Just as I was about to return to my position, my phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a friend request from Pei Chenyi on WeChat.
I hesitated for a moment but still accepted it.
Pei Chenyi: "Help me out by following my Weibo account; I want to break through the 500,000 follower mark."
I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "Can't you follow it yourself?"
Pei Chenyi: "Isn't it inconvenient for me? Please, next time you negotiate with Manager Qin Jin, I will definitely support you wholeheartedly."
He was using this to tempt me again.
I sighed helplessly and opened Weibo, searching for and following the account of Pei Chenyi.
Pei Chenyi: "Thank you, I'll treat you to a meal later."
Just as I was about to reply, the store manager returned from the hallway, so I had to put my phone down and continue working.
At two in the afternoon, my phone vibrated again.
It was a WeChat message from Pei Chenyi: "I'm out, thank you."
I silently breathed a sigh of relief; he was finally gone.
Just as I was putting my phone away, I bumped into Li Wen.
Today, she was wearing a white lace dress that looked both elegant and pure, completely different from her usual mature and composed image.
I couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister Wen, you look beautiful today."
Li Wen's face turned slightly red: "Thank you, I'm going to meet a client today."
I nodded: "I see."
Li Wen didn't say much more and turned towards the elevator.
At that moment, Pei Chenyi also walked out of the conference room.
Seeing Li Wen's back, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly chased after her: "Sister Wen, wait for me!"
Hearing his voice, Li Wen stopped and turned around: "Oh, it's you."
Pei Chenyi nodded: "It's me. You look really beautiful today."
Li Wen smiled: "Thank you. I'm going to meet a client now; let's talk next time."
Pei Chenyi stood there stunned, watching Li Wen walk into the elevator.
I couldn't help but chuckle; it was the first time I had seen Pei Chenyi at a loss like this.
Pei Chenyi turned around and glared at me: "What are you laughing at?"
I quickly covered my mouth, but my shoulders still couldn't help but shake.
With a cold snort, Pei Chenyi turned and left.
Watching him walk away, I suddenly found it somewhat amusing.
Someone like him, who can command the winds and waves in the marketplace, is probably encountering a woman like Li Wen for the first time. After a busy afternoon, he finally made it to the end of the workday.
