Aunt Chen was really worried when she saw that she insisted on going out but was unwilling to call Pei Xiao.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Then shall I go with you?"

Don't say that Gu Yin has this level of status, even if she doesn't, Mrs. Chen is not at ease seeing her going out like this.

Seeing Mrs. Chen's insistence, Gu Yin nodded, "Okay, you go with me."

As for the teacher, she thought she had nothing to hide.

The relationship between her and Pei Xiao was a simple superior-subordinate relationship. It was because of the exposure of their marriage that it became so confusing.

If Pei Xiao knew about the teacher because of Mrs. Chen, she wouldn't need to explain anything.

In this way, Gu Yin and Mrs. Chen went out together, but when Mrs. Chen was changing clothes, she still called Luo Yan.

At this moment, Pei Xiao was having a meeting in the conference room. After receiving the call, Luo Yan knocked on the door and came in.

Zheng Fei was attending the meeting today, but Luo Yan did not let Zheng Fei go out to explain. Instead, he went directly to Pei Xiao.

Possessed and whispered something in his ear, Pei Xiao frowned: "Where did she go?"

"Sister-in-law Chen didn't say anything. She just said that she must go out. If she is worried, she should give you a call!"

"Where's Mrs. Chen?"

Pei Xiao's tone became a little colder.

Luo Yan: "Let's go together!"

Pei Xiao nodded!

Just go together.

This damn girl dares to run around even after being injured so badly, which is not reassuring at all.

In the midst of the fire, the phone buzzed on the conference table.

Pei Xiao glanced at the number. It was an unfamiliar number. Luo Yan looked at the people present.

Pei Xiao has already answered the phone: "Hello?"

"Hello, Mr. Pei, I am Mr. Zheng Xuehao's housekeeper." A mellow voice came from the other side.

Clarify your identity.

Pei Xiao frowned subconsciously: "Master Zheng?"

"Yes, it's our old gentleman."

Pei Xiao was a little shocked.

Mr. Zheng Xuehao has a high status in the art festival and even more high prestige in Hong Kong City.

But they had no contact, and now this phone call is...! ?

"What's the matter?"

Pei Xiao's tone was a little softer.

Just listen to the person over there say: "We old gentleman want to see you."

"see me?"

"Yes, do you think we should go find you? Or should you come to Xuelin yourself?"

Pei Xiao paused for breath.

There was no intersection in the first place, but now every word of the other party is neither humble nor arrogant, but it also reveals toughness!

Pei Xiao's voice became slightly darker, "Are you in a hurry?"

"The old gentleman said that if you can't come to see him now, he will come to Pei's to find you immediately."

It seems that he is very anxious!

But, what on earth is going on?

After all, he is a relatively prestigious person in Hong Kong City. Although Pei Xiao is the heir to the largest wealthy family in Hong Kong City, he is still humble and respectful: "I will go to Xuelin."

"Then please take a trip, Mr. Pei."

"Yeah." Pei Xiao hummed, and they hung up the phone at the same time.

I looked at the time on my phone and saw it was almost two o'clock.

He said in a deep voice: "Let's do this for today!"

After saying that, he stood up.

Luo Yan quickly followed. As soon as he entered the office, Pei Xiao asked, "What kind of cooperation do we have with Master Zheng Xuehao?"

"No, the field is completely different!" Luo Yan shook his head.

Business and art are not on the same line at all.

Pei Xiao's eyes flashed deeply.

So, why is the other party so anxious to see me?

Luo Yan also heard the voice on the phone just now, and obviously didn't understand what the other party meant.

Although both of them have very important positions in Hong Kong City, they usually have almost no involvement with each other.

This phone call was probably the first time they had interacted.

Pei Xiao took out his cigarette, lit it, took a long puff, and then said, "Come with me."

Luo Yan nodded: "Okay!"

……

Gu Yin has already arrived at Xuelin, and Mrs. Chen has been arranged by the housekeeper to have tea.

The sun was shining brightly today, passing through the bamboo forest and shining warmly on the chessboard on the stone table.

Gu Yin held sandpaper in his hand and was polishing a peacock relief.

However, her heart was so tight that she even breathed quickly...

Because the old man sitting opposite her, playing chess alone, was too quiet at the moment...!

According to her understanding of the old man, the quieter it is, the more trouble is coming.

In the past, every time her relief was out of shape, the old man would be so calm, and then...

‘Click! ’ The chess piece fell heavily on the chessboard.

Gu Yin tightened his grip in fear, and his hands shook uncontrollably, and he just heard 'Katz~! 'A sound...

The crown on the peacock's head was frayed!

Gu Yin gasped, and his head was buzzing.

It’s over, the old man hates mistakes in the polishing process!

She thought she was going to get a scolding right away!

However, the old man still didn't speak. He picked up the bowl of tea in front of him and took a hurried sip.

Gu Yin subconsciously squeezed the sandpaper in his hand and closed his eyes: "Old man, I was wrong!"

Based on her experience of irritating Pei Xiao, it would be better for her to admit her mistake quickly.

The old man snorted coldly: "What's wrong?"

Wrong, what's wrong?

It was all Pei Xiao's fault. The secret marriage was clearly mentioned, but now the whole city knew about it, and she was also implicated in it.

Gu Yin's lips trembled, "I, I, I shouldn't marry myself off like this for nothing. I should listen to you and ask for a bride price first!"

When Pei Xiao was brought in by the old housekeeper, he happened to hear Gu Yin's earth-shattering words.

Hearing her voice, Pei Xiao was shocked!

Luo Yan, who was following behind, was also shocked. What was shocking was...why was Gu Yin here with Mr. Zheng?

And what did she say? bride price? what is that?

Gu Yin and Mr. Zheng haven't seen them yet.

I heard Mr. Zheng snort coldly: "It's rare, do you still remember what I taught you?"

"Remember, I remember everything you said word for word." Gu Yin replied hastily.

I was afraid that the old man would be too angry about this matter and get angry.

The old housekeeper stepped forward and said, "Sir, Young Master Pei is here."

Gu Yin's heart trembled when he heard Young Master Pei.

Subconsciously, I looked in the direction of the arch, and sure enough I saw Pei Xiao standing at the door, covered in cold.

The moment the two looked at each other, one was as fierce and dangerous, while the other was as timid as a mouse.

With just one glance, Gu Yin shrank in fear and looked away.

Her reaction was clearly visible to Pei Xiao and Mr. Zheng.

Mr. Zheng blew his beard angrily and glared, "This is the eldest son of the Pei family, not a tiger. What are you afraid of?"

Gu Yin: "Old man~!"

She shouted weakly, she was almost crying now.

Although Pei Xiao is now her husband in name, he is actually her boss.

Remind Mr. Zheng not to offend people too much, otherwise she will really not be able to survive in Hong Kong City.

Mr. Zheng's dissatisfied words naturally reached Pei Xiao's ears.

"Let that kid come in!" Mr. Zheng said sternly to the housekeeper.

At this moment, in the eyes of Pei Xiao and Luo Yan, Mr. Zheng was extremely serious, but he also protected Gu Yin invisibly.

Pei Xiao looked at Luo Yan sharply, and Luo Yan also looked confused!

Before, they investigated Gu Yin's life experience.

A native of Yishan, the road was opened to her hometown only two years ago. She is an orphan who has lived with her grandmother since she was a child. She is a typical girl who earns her way out of the mountains by going to school!
