Ten minutes later, the two girls were standing on the street, staring at the private message interface of Pei Group on the screen.

With the previous experience as a lesson, Xu Mengan wrapped herself tightly in her coat and said doubtfully, "Lili, so you mean that President Pei is your fiancé?"

Whose good person contacts his fiancé through private messages? ? ?

Jiang Ruoli licked his lips awkwardly, his eyes flickering, "Plastic marriage, why do you need contact information?"

"Should we wait then?"

"..."

Although Jiang Ruoli did not show much, Xu Mengan could see the girl's inner anxiety and irritability at the moment.

Jiang Ruoli has a kind of magic power. No matter who sees her, they want to pamper her and protect her, as if she was born to enjoy happiness. If anyone sees Jiang Ruoli in such a miserable state at this moment, they will not have the heart to leave her alone.

Xu Mengan took Jiang Ruoli's arm and said in a gentle and calm voice, "Let's go. I'll take you to a restaurant. Haven't we already made a reservation?"

"The phone call was snatched away halfway through..."

Xu Mengan waved his hand and said, "It's okay! Is there no place to eat?"

The two took a taxi to a street not far from the apartment, chose a Japanese izakaya and started eating Sukiyaki to warm themselves up.

The wagyu beef sizzles on the iron plate and is served on the table. It melts in your mouth, leaving a milky aftertaste.

Jiang Ruoli held his chin up, and he had given up hope of waiting for a reply to his private message. After all, who would reply to a stranger's private message when they have nothing to do?

Besides, Xu Mengan's account only reposts various updates of popular idols, which makes people feel...

Just as she was putting a handful of foie gras sushi into her mouth, Xu Mengan's cell phone vibrated on the table. A moment later, her suppressed scream was heard.

"It's back! Sister! Pei's account has replied to your private message... unbelievable!"

“???” Jiang Ruoli’s hand that was supporting her chin loosened, her delicate little face full of disbelief.

"You didn't lie to me, did you? What did he say?"

Xu Mengan held the phone high in front of Jiang Ruoli, and said excitedly: "The other party sent a mobile phone number and asked me to contact him immediately after seeing it. This can't be your fiancé's mobile phone number, right?"

"I don't know either, maybe it's from my assistant." Jiang Ruoli looked at the private message reply on the screen, took the phone and dialed the number on it.

As expected, the first thing that came out of the phone was, "Hello, Miss Jiang. I'm Mr. Pei's second assistant, Mo Ming."

Jiang Ruoli's eyes flashed with surprise, and he blurted out: "How do you know it's me?"

The other party patiently replied: "Boss Pei has already told me in advance. Miss Jiang, I am on my way to the airport and will arrive tomorrow. You can rest assured tonight. Boss Pei's house in London has been cleaned. Tomorrow I will accompany you to reissue various identity documents and items."

"By the way, I'll send you the address later. Have you eaten? I'll arrange for the nanny to prepare some lunch for you."

Assistant Mo chattered on and on, arranging all the necessary considerations in a neat and tidy manner.

Jiang Ruoli was holding the phone and couldn't get a word in for a while.

"Um... Assistant Mo, right? Besides you and Mr. Pei, does anyone else know about this?"

Assistant Mo seemed to have foreseen this and said without hesitation: "Don't worry, Miss Jiang. President Pei has specifically instructed you to do so, so your family doesn't know about this yet."

Jiang Ruoli breathed a sigh of relief, muttered to himself, and whispered to the phone: "How did he know..."

"Boss Pei said that if you weren't desperate, you wouldn't have thought of coming to him."

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Assistant Mo immediately called Pei Zigui back.

"Boss Pei, Miss Jiang has already contacted me."

It was already 3:30 in the morning. The man's slow voice came through the receiver: "What did she say?"

"Everything has been arranged as you instructed, but Miss Jiang said she doesn't want to live in your cold house alone, so she'd rather go back to her own apartment. She doesn't have to worry about her roommates."

It was expected, but Pei Zigui's eyes still darkened, "At this time in England... has she eaten?"

Assistant Mo reported everything: "I'm eating now. While I was on the phone, the waiter brought me a plate of tamagoyaki."

Pei Zigui paused for a moment, then smiled: "She really is. She will never mistreat herself."

He gave a few more instructions on the phone before letting Assistant Mo board the plane.

After hanging up the phone, he looked out the window of the study. It was pitch black outside and the wind was whistling through the treetops. There was an important meeting tomorrow and he had to attend.

I don’t know what he was thinking of, but a faint smile flashed across the man’s dark eyes.

But then, the temperature dropped sharply.

Pei Zigui pouted his cheek and sent another message to Assistant Mo.

Even though he didn't want to admit it, after receiving the call from that mysterious assistant, Jiang Ruoli's heart inexplicably fell back to its original place.

The two of them paid the bill and prepared to leave when the cell phone rang again.

"Which one?"

It was unclear what was said on the other end. Xu Mengan put the phone in Jiang Ruoli's hand and said, "It's for you."

"Assistant Mo, is there anything else?"

I thought it was Assistant Mo again, but when I picked up the phone, I heard another deep and magnetic voice with a smile.

"I helped Miss Jiang a lot. How is Miss Jiang going to thank me?"

It turned out to be Pei Zigui!!!

Jiang Ruoli licked his lips subconsciously, his playful and smart fox eyes flickered, and he blurted out: "I am your fiancée, the future Mrs. Pei, you are supposed to do all this, okay?"

The aggressive tone is truly Miss Jiang's style.

A low chuckle came from the other end of the receiver, making Jiang Ruoli's ears itch for no reason.

Pei Zigui did not refute, "Okay, I'll remember it. Have you returned home?"

Jiang Ruoli was led by Xu Mengan towards the apartment and answered honestly, "On the way."

"Okay, be safe. Don't eat midnight snacks, save your stomach for breakfast tomorrow."

Jiang Ruoli sighed. How did he know?

"I won't eat it. I need to keep in shape. Anyway, cell phones cannot be exposed here."

Before hanging up the phone, Jiang Ruoli uttered three words in a hurry, "Thank you."

As if she was afraid of being heard by the person on the other end, she hung up the phone in a hurry.

In the dark night, behind Jiang Ruoli, where she could not see, a strong bodyguard was following her vigilantly, paying attention to the situation around the woman so that he could protect her in the first time in case of an emergency.

Pei Zigui was not angry after the call was hung up. Instead, he stared at the phone screen and curled up a meaningful smile.

Little fox, I heard you.

At half past ten in the morning, Jiang Ruoli slowly woke up. Her long hair was tied into a bun. She looked at herself in the mirror, stunned for a moment, and said angrily:

“Why do my hair look so good every time I tie it into a bun? Oh!!”

She patted the essence on her face and walked towards the kitchen.

"An An, what are we going to eat this morning?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ruoli saw a strange man sitting upright on the sofa, looking tired.

She was stunned for a moment, winked at Xu Mengan, and asked in a low voice: "Your new boyfriend?"

It doesn't seem to be her favorite style.

Xu Mengan was holding a cup of coffee in his hand and politely placed the cup on the table. "Assistant Mo, please have a cup of coffee first to relieve your fatigue."

She looked at Jiang Ruoli who was still standing there, "Assistant Mo came all the way to see you, and he just sat down not long ago."

"Uh... Assistant Mo? How come you're so fast?"

After all, there was only one direct flight from Jiangcheng to the UK in the morning, and according to the time last night, it must have been transferred at some airport. It would have arrived in the evening at the latest, right?

Assistant Mo immediately stood up from the sofa, "Good morning, Miss Jiang. I flew directly to London last night on President Pei's private plane. How about you and Miss Xu have breakfast first? I've brought it here."

When Jiang Ruoli saw the piles of traditional Chinese breakfast on the dining table, the look in Assistant Xiang Mo's eyes could be described as tears of gratitude.

"Did you buy all these in Chinatown as soon as you landed?"

Assistant Mo shook his head. "No. I asked the nanny in London to prepare it in advance. Boss Pei said that if Miss Jiang wants to eat Chinese food in the future, she can ask someone to deliver it."

Jiang Ruoli scooped up the chicken soup wontons, looking thoughtful.
