Master Pei's Wife is a Devil Concubine Novel - Chapter 278
278 Su Ji Spoke the Truth
Actually, there were no more scenes to shoot.
The fireworks were the real reason why Pei Huai had asked her to free up her time today. The fireworks had been prepared long ago, but he didn’t expect Su Ji to mention it before midnight, before CEO Wang and the others set the fireworks off.
She said that she wanted to watch the fireworks with him.
This sentence was worth all the new year gifts.
!!
Su Ji heard him, but she did not turn her head immediately. She was still watching the fireworks.
This was the first time she had seen this with her own eyes.
Mysterious things brought a sense of excitement and romance. Su Ji couldn’t describe what she was feeling, but she liked it.
She just said that she wanted to watch it with him, and then she saw it. Pei Huai’s fireworks were more beautiful than the ones she saw on TikTok.
Pei Huai looked at her side profile. If this continued, he would start to get jealous of the fireworks.
At this moment, Su Ji finally turned around to look at him.
At the end of the day, humans were still emotional creatures, even for a woman like Su Ji who was as hard as steel.
She looked at Pei Huai with a hint of inquisitiveness.
He was handsome, rich, good at fighting, knew how to cultivate lychees, clean, had a sense of boundary with other women and helped her career.
He said that he loved her to death, and she was actually quite happy inside.
She decided to end the trial period.
“Pei Huai,” she called his name.
Pei Huai looked at her silently.
He thought she was finally going to say “happy new year” back to him, but Su Ji said, “actually, I’m not me.”
Pei Huai’s eyes twitched.
“Do you understand?” Su Ji asked.
“Yes,” Pei Huai replied.
“You do?” Su Ji was quite surprised by this answer.
Outside the car window, the fireworks continued.
Because he was close to it, he felt that his feet were shaking and his chest was resonating.
At the foot of the mountain, CEO Wang was like a commander. He raised his hand in the air and commanded the crew to light the fireworks in batches.
In the suburbs, there were a few residents holding up their mobile phones and standing in front of the window to take pictures. They were surprised that someone had set off so many fireworks.
They did not know that Pei Huai was only doing this for one girl.
In the car, Su Ji wasn’t sure that he understood, but in the next second, his lips were pressed against hers.
Her scalp went numb.
It was frosty outside the window, but it was as warm in the car.
Su Ji’s hair was pressed against the back of her neck by his palm, and she felt a strong friction.
Her hair wrapped around his fingers.
A thin layer of mist appeared on the car window.
They were still kissing in the car when Xu Mingzhi called her.
The screen flickered beside Su Ji, and it gradually synchronized with her heartbeat.
After that, the phone fell under the seat, and the roof of the car flickered.
After that, Su Ji’s phone finally stopped ringing, but Pei Huai’s phone rang.
No one answered it.
On new year’s day, Su Ji made Pei Huai her real boyfriend.
Finally, they stopped.
Pei Huai didn’t want her to experience her first time in such a place.
Furthermore, he had not prepared anything in the car.

Su Ji arrived home at two in the morning.
Xu Mingzhi waited for her to come back, but she didn’t say anything. She just asked her if she was tired, what she did today, and if she had fun.
Su Ji said that she was filming an advertisement.
Xu Mingzhi pretended to believe her and held her by the shoulders as they returned to the house. “Oh right, I’m planning to release our commercial at the same time as Pei Corporation to shut the media up. Besides, we are familiar with each other. Ask Pei Huai if he thinks it’s okay, then we’ll do it.”
“Alright, I’ll ask him,” Su Ji replied.
When they reached the room, Xu Mingzhi asked her gently, “baby, I’m not going to the office tomorrow. How do you want to spend New Year’s Day?”
Seeing that she wasn’t pursuing the matter of her not picking up the phone that night, Su Ji said, “why don’t we ask Pei Huai to come over for dinner?”
Xu Mingzhi was still smiling, but her attitude was clear from her words, “I don’t want to see him for the time being.”
He had taken her precious daughter away for such a long time on New Year’s eve.
Although her baby promised to spend the first day of the year together with her, she didn’t say that they would spend New Year’s eve together.
They had been mother and daughter for two lives, but in her previous life, Su Ji was only a teenager when she left her. So, it was really two lives, but a continuation of the previous one.
This was the first time she had encountered a situation where her daughter had a boyfriend.
“…”
“Alright,” Su Ji squinted her eyes, “I’ll go tomorrow afternoon.”
Xu Mingzhi immediately understood what she meant. “Alright, bring him home!”
Those who were favored by Su Ji would live a good life.
Su Ji smiled. “Thank you, mom.”
**
The crew started work as usual on New Year’s Day, but the workload was reduced, and her scenes were finished at 10 am.
The new year had arrived, and the crew was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
After spending time together for the past few months, the crew had grown closer. There were still people who were jealous of Su Ji, but it was New Year’s Day, so everyone still wished her well.
“I heard that you went to the Pei Corporation to shoot a commercial until the latter half of the night yesterday?”
“My God, after midnight? You didn’t even celebrate New Year’s eve, did you?”
“Money is hard to earn, and sh * t is hard to eat.”
“Why are you saying such vulgar words in front of a female star?”
“Well, I was just saying…”
Su Ji put her hands in her pockets and turned to look at them. Her hair was ruffled by the wind. She pointed to the person who said “money is hard to earn and sh * t is hard to eat”, “I think you’re right.”
With that, she left.
The people behind her were left discussing.
“Why do I feel that…Su Ji doesn’t seem to be as difficult to talk to as we thought?”
“She’s not that cold. Did we misunderstand her?”
After leaving the crew, Su Ji returned to her seat. She placed her bag in front of her. After she was done filming, she started to pack up her script and other things.
The things on the small table were casually put into her bag.
Si Jingchuan moved closer to her with a smile and nudged her shoulder. “I saw fireworks in the suburbs at midnight yesterday. They were all the most expensive fireworks that lasted more than an hour. Did it have something to do with you?” He asked.
Su Ji’s hands paused for a moment, then she continued to pack, “maybe.”
Si Jingchuan had a knowing look on his face. “CEO Pei is quite romantic.”
He turned to the side, revealing Xu Ni who was sitting beside him.
The three of them were always together recently.
Xu Ni lit a cigarette with one hand and swiped on his phone with the other. His white shirt fluttered in the wind, and he looked very youthful.
With the series airing, he had started to gain quite a lot of fans recently.
It seemed that this was the first time he had been liked by so many people, and he did not look as hostile as before.
Feeling Su Ji’s gaze on him, he looked back at her. “Since your boyfriend is so good to you, then don’t think about other people.”
He still suspected that Su Ji was interested in him.
“Who?” However, Su Ji said casually, “if you say it out loud, I might think about it.”
Xu Ni choked. When he saw that her eyes were clear, he suddenly felt that he might be overthinking.
The tips of his ears were a little red. “No one,” he replied.
Si Jingchuan said, “by the way, boss, Binbin will be discharged this weekend. Dr. Mo said that it’s all thanks to you this time.”
Su Ji zipped up her bag and received a message on her phone. Pei Huai’s car had arrived.
He wanted to bring her home for lunch.
She said, let him rest at home. I’ll give you the medicine every day, and you give it to him.”
Si Jingchuan wanted to give her a kowtow.
While they were talking about this, Xu Ni kept staring at Su Ji until their eyes met. He asked, “do you know medicine?”
