Li Xiwu was not sure about Yaoyao’s condition. On the day she first met
Yaoyao in the hospital, it was Madam Di Xin who told her that Yaoyao suffered from mild autism. But later on, when Yaoyao interacted with her, he was very lively and had a good personality.
But now that she thought about it, it was only when they got along. She remembered the first time she saw Yaoyao. He hid behind the door and hid himself in the darkness, not seeing anyone.
Li Xiwu lowered her eyes and said worriedly, “Other than autism, I wonder if
Yaoyao’s stomach will feel better after he returns to Country T.”
Pei Jingzhou asked, “Is Yaoyao’s stomach not good either?”
“Yes.” Li Xiwu nodded. “Yaoyao was born prematurely. From the moment he was born, his body was not good. His stomach has always been very weak. If he can’t adapt to a place, he will have serious acclimatization. In addition, he has a slight autism…” At this point, Li Xiwu could not continue.
Pei Jingzhou turned his head. “I’ll arrange the trip to Country T after New
Year’s Day.” Pei Jingzhou knew what she was thinking.
Li Xiwu was relieved. “Okay.”
On this day, Li Xiwu sent Youyou to kindergarten with Pei Jingzhou as usual. After sending Youyou off, Pei Jingzhou sent her to the company. She got out of the car and Pei Jingzhou handed her her bag. Li Xiwu took it and asked, “Are you really going back to the Pei residence today?”
Pei Jingzhou said, “You’an is back from school. We’ll take Youyou back and show them.”
Li Xiwu smiled. “But Auntie isn’t back yet.”
That day, they agreed to go back to the Pei residence together. She had also promised Han Qianye on the phone, but Han Qianye suddenly called her again at night and said that she wanted to accompany her uncle on a long trip. It was a business matter.
Han Qianye did not say where that place was at that time.
Since Han Qianye and Pei Qingji were not at the Pei residence, Li Xiwu and Pei
Jingzhou naturally did not bring Youyou back to the Pei residence the next day.
Thinking about it, she decided to wait for Han Qianye to return from her long trip before bringing Youyou over. However, Pei You’an had returned from his home leave today and had called long ago to say that he was coming to Lake Lu. Instead of coming to Lake Lu, it was better for them to return to the Pei residence.
Therefore, on the way here, Pei Jingzhou mentioned to Li Xiwu that he was returning to the Pei residence today.
Pei Jingzhou looked at her. “Mom and Dad’s itinerary is in Malaysia this time. They probably won’t be back for a week. We’ll bring Youyou back to the Pei residence to stay for a few days and wait for them to come back.”
Li Xiwu nodded. “Alright, I’ll go in first.”
Pei Jingzhou stopped her. “Honey.”
Li Xiwu turned. “Yes?”
Pei Jingzhou’s face tilted slightly, and the hint was obvious. Li Xiwu’s pursed lips curled up. Without hesitation, she turned back. She reached out to Pei Jingzhou, hooked his neck, and pulled him out.
Pei Jingzhou probably did not expect her to be so ‘rough’. By the time he reacted, Li Xiwu had already raised her face and kissed him. This was a ‘simple and crude kiss’ that happened before Pei Jingzhou could react. It was rare for him to be slow, but this was usually in front of Li Xiwu. The kiss was very light) like a dragonfly skimming the water. It passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Xiwu’s eyes were filled with a wicked smile. “Fourth Brother, are you surprised?”
Pei Jingzhou licked his lips and smiled. “What do you think?”
In other words, he was pleasantly surprised.
At this moment, Li Xiwu had yet to let go of Pei Jingzhou’s neck. The way she hooked his neck with one hand looked very seductive.
Li Xiwu had never done this before. On a whim just now, she did so. She was quite satisfied with herself, but clearly, looking at Pei Jingzhou’s reminiscent expression, he should be even more satisfied than her. She didn’t care if anyone entering or leaving the company saw the scene just now. It was more obvious that the car was parked here.
Her arm was still hooked around Pei Jingzhou’s neck. She slowly said in a soft voice, “Jinzhu shared it with me. She said that all men actually like to be kissed by girls. They fantasize about being pressed to the corner and kissed crazily.
And it’s the especially tough kind.”
Pei Jingzhou smiled meaningfully.
Seeing him smile, Li Xiwu asked, “Fourth Brother, do you think it’s very childish?”
“No.” Pei Jingzhou’s smile deepened. “I’m thinking you should invest in someone as eloquent as Xue Jinzhu. It should be a sure win.”
Li Xiwu couldn’t help but laugh. “If Jinzhu heard your words, she would probably worship you.”
Pei Jingzhou chuckled. Then, he leaned over and kissed the corner of Li Xiwu’s lips.
The chauffeur in front couldn’t bear to watch, but he thought to himself, Sir and Madam have been married for three years but they are still having the feelings of a newlywed. I’m afraid ten or twenty years will also be a honeymoon period for them.
“I’m going in,” Li Xiwu said.
Pei Jingzhou’s gaze was doting. “Mm.”
After watching Li Xiwu enter the company, Pei Jingzhou asked the chauffeur to drive.
Li Xiwu was rather busy today. After settling the companyi s matters, she still had to take Xue Jinzhu to see a producer.
Xue Jinzhu knew about todays arrangements, so she dressed up beautifully before she went out. She wore a dress with a skirt and a fur coat.
Yuanyuan praised, “So beautiful, so elegant, a rich flower.”
Xue Jinzhu said, “A rich flower? Doesn’t this praise sound too old-fashioned?”
Yuanyuan blinked and said, “Sister Jinzhu, don’t you know that being praised as a rich flower is an absolute affirmation of beauty?”
Xue Jinzhu held her face and asked with a smile, “Really?”
Yuanyuan nodded. “Of course it’s true. Sister Jinzhu, I actually suggest that you adopt the image of a rich flower. Look, you’re so beautiful and your family is very rich. You’re simply a rich flower!”
Who wouldn’t like such praise?
Xue Jinzhu reached out and hooked her round chin. “As expected of an assistant of two celebrities. You’re really good at fooling people.”
Yuanyuan. “?”
Li Xiwu walked over and placed her hand on Xue Jinzhu’s shoulder. “Miss Yu will be here soon. Are you mentally prepared?”
Xue Jinzhu vowed, “I was ready the moment I went out. Don’t worry, Miss Li. I’m very capable. Just because I know how to spout nonsense.”
Li Xiwu:
Although Li Xiwu kept feeling that Xue Jinzhu was unreliable, Xue Jinzhu was indeed very good at doing things.
Her usually jumpy personality was obedient in front of the producer, and she restrained herself just right. She would not let the producer feel that she’s too unbending, but she would not make the producer feel like she was too relaxed.
Her first impression was especially good.
The producer was very satisfied with Xue Jinzhu and immediately said, “Try on your makeup! We’ll try on your makeup today!”
Hence, Li Xiwu brought Xue Jinzhu to audition again. In the car, Yuanyuan drove while Li Xiwu and Xue Jinzhu sat in the back.
Xue Jinzhu held Li Xiwu’s arm and said coquettishly, “Miss Li, my performance today was very good, right?”
Li Xiwu had always praised her when she should. She was not afraid of Xue
Jinzhu i s pride. “You did well.”
Xue Jinzhu giggled. “Of course. I feel very good about myself..”
