After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy

She looked at the phone, turning it over and over to check the contents, only to find that no matter how she looked at it, it was a new phone!

Pei Yan actually bought her a new phone?

Lin Man stood up. She no longer had time to look for Xiaojun. Her own mobile phone contained important information and she couldn't lose it. Lin Man hurriedly chased after him. At this moment, she could only hope that Pei Yan had not thrown it away.

"Manman, the dinner is about to start, where are you going?"

Pei Xiuhe shouted from behind, but could only see Lin Man's back.

In front of the door of the banquet hall, Lin Man looked at the time and had no hope, after all, Pei Yan had been gone for a long time. But she didn't expect that as soon as she walked out of the door, she saw a familiar Maybach parked on the side of the road.

Han Ming saw Lin Man in the rearview mirror and said, "Boss Pei, it's your wife."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Man had already knocked on the window. Han Ming was unsure of Pei Yan's intention, but he still rolled down the window halfway.

Lin Man looked at Pei Yan and felt that his face was too gloomy. After hesitating for a while, she still reached out her hand, "Pei Yan, thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need a new phone. You should give me my own phone."

After Lin Man finished speaking, a ray of light flashed into her eyes.

She tilted her head and looked at a cell phone lying quietly on the ground. It was even ringing. "My cell phone!"

Lin Man exclaimed and quickly picked up the phone from the ground. As soon as she answered the call, she heard an angry voice, "What do you mean! You hung up on me, and you don't want to give me the rest of the money, right? I tell you, I have spent all my manpower and material resources, especially to find out that Ji Ze is not dead! Now that you know about it, you want to get rid of it, right!"

Lin Man's heart trembled, "What? Ji Ze is not dead!"

"Maybe... maybe, I need to check this out. Get the money ready first! If you hang up on me again, go check it out yourself!"

Lin Man was delighted. She said that Ji Ze might still be alive?

Her hand holding the phone was shaking slightly. Just as she was about to ask for more clarification, her hand was empty. When she looked up again, she saw that her phone was in Pei Yan's hand.

He raised his cold eyes and said to the person on the phone in a low voice: "The matter of Ji Ze ends here. If I find out that you are investigating privately again, you will not be able to keep this business."

After saying this, Pei Yan hung up the phone without waiting for Lin Man to stop him.

Lin Man watched him throw away his phone, anger rising in her chest, "Pei Yan! Are you crazy? Ji Ze might still be alive, why don't you let me check! You don't want him to live, do you really have to watch him die?"

After venting her anger, Lin Man raised her eyes, only to meet Pei Yan's cold and sinister eyes. Her burning heart suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over it. The anger was extinguished, leaving only wisps of smoke.

"Say it! Why don't you continue talking?"

Pei Yan's dark eyes darkened, as if if Lin Man mentioned Ji Ze again, he would make her speechless.

"Forget it, I have nothing to say to you."

Lin Man pushed Pei Yan away. She wanted to squat down to pick up the phone, but the next second, he dragged her into the car. Han Ming had already raised the partition and got out of the car, standing not far away and guarding.

At this moment, in the narrow space, Pei Yan was sticking close to Lin Man.

The air was unusually quiet, so quiet that one could even hear each other's heartbeats.

Lin Man felt a chill on her back. She twisted her body, but found that Pei Yan was holding her wrist tighter and tighter, as if he wanted to break it. "It hurts..."

Lin Man opened her mouth subconsciously, and felt the force on her wrist loosen, but she still couldn't sit up. When she raised her eyes, she met a pair of sinister eyes.

"Pain, do you know what pain is?"

Lin Man was speechless. She had thought that Pei Yan would be angry if he knew that she had privately investigated things related to Ji Ze, but she didn't expect his reaction to be so big.

"Pei Yan, don't you think you're meddling too much? You were the one who thought I had ulterior motives at first, and you were the one who thought I faked my pregnancy to trick you into having private contact with Ji Ze! It was you who told me not to return to Haicheng Manor, so what? Now you don't care about me faking my pregnancy to trick you?"

Lin Man raised her head and looked at Pei Yan provocatively. She thought that why not she and Pei Yan be destroyed together today!

This lunatic, no one should live!

Unexpectedly, Pei Yan stared at her for a long while, then suddenly smiled. However, that smile made Lin Man feel a hint of coldness for no reason.

He said, "I've thought about it. Whether you're pregnant or not, you'll never be honest. So, even if it's fake, it doesn't matter. It would be great if it were real."

He looked at Lin Man, put his thin lips close to her ear, and said word by word: "When you find out that all your calculations and self-righteousness will become nothing in the end, you will be honest."

Lin Man glared at Pei Yan, "Mad man!"

Pei Yan curled his lips and moved away from Lin Man.

He took out a tissue and wiped his hands in front of Lin Man.

Then he opened his thin lips and uttered a line of cold words, "Starting tomorrow, you will come to Pei's and work to pay off your debts."

what?

Lin Man almost didn't hear what Pei Yan said.

Until Pei Yan threw a stack of bills at her.

20 billion!

"No matter how difficult it is for the Pei family, they will not let a woman pay off the debt. I have been keeping this money for you, but now it seems that there is no room for you in my Pei family temple."

"Since you and Ji Ze have a strong bond, not only did you help him shoulder the company's debts after Ji Ze disappeared, but you even had the money to pay him back, then I think the 20 billion is not a big deal for Miss Lin."

Lin Man looked at the bill in her hand. It was an astronomical string of numbers that almost made her lose count of how many zeros there were. This was the money that Ji owed Pei when Ji Ze disappeared several months ago.

It's just unfortunate that in order to help Ji Ze save Ji's company, Lin Man took on all the problems. She originally thought that she could run the two companies together and pay off the debt sooner or later, but she didn't expect Ji's company to suddenly go bankrupt.

This debt became an astronomical figure that Lin Man could not afford to pay back.

She checked the bill carefully, and Pei Yan did not rush her.

After a while, Lin Man said, "The property management and insurance company have already paid for the garage water leakage problem, so this money should be thrown out."

After she finished speaking, she still didn't hear Pei Yan's reply.

When she looked up again, she found that Pei Yan had lit a cigarette and was standing there, with a mocking smile on his lips.

Just as Lin Man was about to speak, he had already put out his cigarette and got into the car without looking back.

Go ahead and go.

Lin Man felt a tingling sensation in her temples when she looked at the bill which was as high as hers.

"Manman? Are you looking for me? I couldn't get through to you on the phone, and you didn't reply to my messages. I asked Secretary Han where you were, and he said you were with President Pei and would be home late, so he sent a car to take me home. Didn't you know?"

Lin Man listened to Xiaojun's voice and breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, Xiaojun, there is one thing. I won't go to the crew you mentioned last time."

"Why?" Xiaojun reacted strongly. "This is such a good opportunity. Even if you don't get selected, you can still give it a try. This is Director Yu's play. Besides, he praised your performance as the Demon Queen before. You have a better chance than others!"

"No, I absolutely cannot watch you give up such a good opportunity. Zhao Yao and I are at the snack street in Tiangang Bay, the old place, come quickly!"

Before Xiaojun could finish speaking, Lin Man's phone was automatically turned off.

She only heard Tiangangwan, the old place...

Looking at the broken phone, Lin Man's forehead kept twitching. Finally, she quickly found a place to repair the phone and went to Tiangang Bay to meet Xiaojun.

"Manman! Did I hear you correctly? You mean... you want to work at Pei Group?"

"Are you crazy?"

At least Xiaojun thinks that Lin Man's decision is crazy. She gave up filming Director Yu's drama and went to work for Pei Group? Or work for her own family?

After hearing this, Zhao Yao's emotions were much calmer than Xiaojun's. "Don't get excited. Manman wouldn't make such a decision without a reason. Did something happen? Is there anything we can help with?"

Lin Man put her hands in her hair and lowered her head for a long while before she said, "Ji Ze may not be dead."

Another heavy blow, Xiaojun touched his chest, almost unable to digest these two sudden things.

"What on earth is going on? The news has reported that the plane crashed and no one survived. Could it be that Mr. Ji is a survivor who has not been found?"

Zhao Yao put down his chopsticks and said, "Manman, how did you know about this?"

Lin Man looked at the steaming hot pot and recounted everything. "When I first heard the news of Ji Ze's death, I couldn't believe it until Xiaojun told me that the incident had been reported in the news. The plane crashed and no one survived."

"But I don't believe that a smart person like Ji Ze would put himself in danger. Moreover, his mother didn't even stay on the plane. How could he leave his mother alone?"

This is one of the main reasons why Lin Man wants to investigate this matter.

From the beginning to the end, she never believed that Ji Ze was really dead. The reason why she was so sad and burned paper for Ji Ze in Pei Yan's study was just to make Pei Yan relax his vigilance.

She knew that Pei Yan might not care about Ji Ze's life or death, but he cared about Lin Man's concern for Ji Ze's life or death. He was paranoid, and his possessiveness towards her reached its peak.

Lin Man was really having a headache. She was just curious about how Gan Tian had been able to deal with several men in the past without being discovered.

Zhao Yao: "Manman, this matter is very serious. If you insist on investigating it, I'm afraid President Pei will be unhappy."

There was a moment of silence. All of them could see that Pei Yan minded the matter between Lin Man and Ji Ze. It would have been fine if Lin Man had not promised Ji Ze before, but she had promised, and so many things had happened in between. It would be hard for a man not to mind.

"I know."

She took a sip of tea.

Zhao Yao said helplessly: "You know, but you choose not to listen, right?"

"Manman, you don't have to be so nervous. Mr. Ji's network of contacts is much stronger than ours. He might just be tired and want to find a place to rest. Moreover, if he is really alive, why didn't he come to see you?"

Zhao Yao's words made Lin Man feel heartbroken.

Yeah, if Ji Ze is really alive, why doesn't he show up?

Do you not want to see her, or are you really tired and want to change the way you live?

Lin Man closed her eyes and couldn't help but think of Ji Ze, who spoke eloquently at the press conference and was confident and yet reserved and humble at the signing ceremony.

But now, the Ji family has gone bankrupt and Ji Ze's whereabouts are unknown.

Could it be that she could only change the process but not the ending?

"I'm sorry for all the hard work you've done during this period. How much money is left in the company's account?"

Xiaojun: "Why talk about hard work? We are friends and partners! The account is in deficit, but Zhao Yao and I have received our pay. Just tell us how much you need."

Xiaojun knew that Lin Man wanted to investigate further.

She shook her head. "Keep the money for yourself. If you can pay the film remuneration, don't use the company's account. I'm afraid it will be frozen suddenly. Tell me if there is any financial expenditure. Don't pay for it yourself."

After Lin Man finished speaking, she picked up her phone and walked out. The call had just been connected, and she was about to ask the other party if they had received the money. The once loud female voice suddenly became low, no longer as arrogant as before.

"Lin Man, did you receive the money? I have already returned the one million you sent me. Let's end this matter here. I will also return the deposits you paid. The photos and videos are just for you. Our firm can no longer accept your business. Please find someone else."

She spoke so quickly that before Lin Man could hear what she said next, she had already hung up the phone.

She was confused and wanted to call back, but found that the number she dialed was no longer in the service area. Was she blocked?

The mobile banking app quickly popped up information about a refund of one million yuan.

At this point, seeing the money being returned, Lin Man still has nothing to understand.

It seems that if I want to check, I can only check it myself.

As soon as she turned around, she found Xiaojun and Zhao Yao sitting stiffly in their chairs.

Only then did I realize that the hot pot restaurant was empty.

Han Ming walked up to her with two assistants and said, "Madam, tomorrow at 8 o'clock, you must go to the company on time like the employees of Pei Group."

"I dont go."

Lin Man walked back to her seat, took out her chopsticks and continued eating hot pot.

He did not forget to put some meat in Xiaojun and Zhao Yao's bowls, but they were surrounded by a group of people and they had no chance to eat.

"Manman, what's going on? Could it be that Boss Pei has something on you?"

Xiaojun leaned close to Lin Man and whispered.

At this time, Lin Man took a deep breath. She said nothing, but just took out the bill that Pei Yan gave her and looked at it.

No wonder he laughed at her, these bills had already offset the money the insurance company paid for the underground garage.

"Where's Pei Yan?"

Without waiting for Han Ming to speak, Lin Man stood up and walked out.

She knew that Pei Yan must be in the company at this time.

boom--

Lin Man had no problems all the way and pushed open the office door.

The female secretary was about to open the file when she saw someone standing at the door. She was somewhat unhappy that her work was suddenly interrupted.

Pei Yan raised his head, saw Lin Man, and leaned back in his chair.

He put down the pen in his hand and said calmly, "Get out."

The female secretary frowned, and her soft voice was a little cold, "Madam, please leave."

"I told you to get out."

There was already some impatience between Pei Yan's brows.

The female secretary's heart trembled, and she closed the document and said reluctantly: "Yes..."

The door was closed and there was no one else in the room.
