Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Cruise Date Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Cruise Date 天府 and Po Jun were so eager to send Qingwu off because they wanted to see what the boss of Deep Sea looked like!
In the end, they didn’t see him, only catching a glimpse of Pei Jue, who was sitting in the car looking dignified.
When Pei Jue glanced over, both Tianfu and Po Jun felt attacked by his gaze, those hawk-like eyes seemingly filled with scrutiny and caution, watching them hold Qingwu’s hand.
Gosh, the boss of the Pei Clan was truly terrifying!
Tianfu whispered, “Do you think there’s a chance that the boss of the Pei Clan is actually that singer from Deep Sea?”
“Is that even a question? The way he looked at us almost cut us, his murderous aura was heavier than mine.”
“Jeez, I thought our boss was having an affair! The Pei Clan is wealthy and powerful, but do they kill people for fun in their spare ti? Oh well, who would’ve thought we still have to form an alliance with Deep Sea now!”
Po Jun said speechlessly, “Our boss isn’t much better. What if the Singer was brought over by deception? Or maybe even by force.”
“You have a point.”
The two exchanged glances, watching the Cayenne’s dust and exhaust fade into the distance, leaving them speechless.
In the newest Cayenne, Pei Jue handed Qingwu a cup of hot water and reached out to touch her small hand.
Fortunately, it wasn’t too cold, she didn’t seem to have frozen.
Qingwu: “…”
She wasn’t a three-year-old child who couldn’t keep herself warm.
“It’s only been a few days without seeing you, and I found myself missing soone this much.”
Annie in the passenger seat got goosebumps all over!
The old man was worried that President Pei wouldn’t know how to be in a relationship, but with this mouth, he should be worried if Miss Qingwu could handle it!
Pei Jue watched Qingwu take tiny sips of water, his smile growing deeper.
Qingwu closed the lid to her cup, casting a coquettish glance at Pei Jue, and said lightly, “Do you always speak so directly?”
“Not really. When I was young, I actually hated expressing emotions. After my mother passed away, I always regretted if I had expressed my feelings more while she was alive, she’d have known I loved her.”
Pei Jue’s voice carried a hint of lancholy, his clear and stern brows revealing so bitterness, his smile turning slightly sad.
“Sorry, I didn’t an it that way.”
“It’s okay, everything I say to you is from the heart. If you don’t like it, I’ll learn to change. Please give so ti.”
His voice had a deep, magnetic quality, making it feel like even the tips of one’s ears would tingle listening to it.
Annie shivered, thinking to herself how Miss Qingwu would ever say no to him with this kind of approach!
Sure enough, Qingwu said lightly, “It’s not necessary.”
Pei Jue’s face lit up with a joyful smile, exceedingly surprised, “Does that an my fiancée likes to hear speak this way?”
Qingwu: “…”
How had she not noticed before that he was so overly enthusiastic?
Annie silently took out earplugs from her bag and put them on expertly, maintaining the professional deanor one would expect from a top assistant.
“What do you want to eat? Do you have other plans for tonight?”
Qingwu shook her head.
“Anything, no plans.”
Shen Boyi knew she and Pei Jue were going to dinner, and the Shen Family wouldn’t wait for her to eat. Shen Dongli and Zuo Wanjun were now hoping Qingwu would spend the whole day with Pei Jue, under the pretense of cultivating a relationship…
“Then let’s have dinner first, and afterward, I want to take you sowhere.”
“Where?”
“You’ll find out when we get there. Just leaving a little suspense. I heard you went to the dical University with your brother today, do you want to study there in the future?”
Pei Jue knowing where she went didn’t surprise her at all. The Pei Clan personnel at the corners and junctions, she simply ignored them.
“Can’t I?”
Pei Jue held her hand, feeling the warmth from her soft hand in his own, which brought a sense of comfort, sweeping away all the fatigue and scheming nastiness!
“Why not? It’s just that studying dicine can be tiring, often spending most of your ti in the lab, you probably want to save so of your ti for other things.”
Qingwu had her own organization, and she certainly wouldn’t abandon it.
To have ti for orders, indeed not all of her ti could be arranged for school.
In the past, she only needed to divide her ti between Lady Lin and tasks, now she had to include the Shen Family and Pei Jue, for the first ti, Qingwu felt her ti was stretched too thin!
“Yes, I’ll consider it.”
Pei Jue smiled, his handso smile radiant and dizzying.
If Qingwu pursued dicine, she’d likely have less ti for him. Their ti together would surely decrease, and that could not do!
Moreover, with the little girl’s talents, she entirely didn’t need to waste ti at university.
“I’ve already arranged the dicine for Elder Pei, it’ll be delivered tomorrow.”
“Thank you! I’ll co to get you then.”
Along the riverbank of the Bund in Beijing, the shimring ripples of the river reflected the palace-like French restaurant on the roadside, the piano music inside elegant and lodious, lingering in the air.
Pei Jue pulled out a chair for Qingwu, inviting her to sit with gentlemanly grace, before sitting across from her.
“What’s the deal with Shen Yurou?”
“It’s simple. She was tempted by the amount offered by Tarzan, impersonated Chang Yue to take the order, and was taken by Tarzan. She should be at the port now.”
Qingwu frowned slightly. Shen Yurou was still, nominally, part of the Shen Family, if she were taken abroad by Tarzan just like that, the Shen Family could face so trouble.
Pei Jue poured her a glass of wine, his gentle gaze settling on her face, always finding his mood becoming peaceful whenever he saw her.
“Relax, she can’t leave. Grandpa Shen’s status is special, if any Shen Family mber left the country abruptly, it would certainly trigger an investigation from above.”
“Did you arrange people at the port?”
Pei Jue swirled the wine in his glass, smiling aningfully.
“Didn’t my fiancée also arrange that? Our thoughts coincided, indeed you and I have a mutual understanding.”
Qingwu: “…”
The mutual understanding between them probably existed ever since both organizations were eyeing the sa assassin jobs non-stop, they’ve had many public and secret confrontations.
That’s why Tianfu and Po Jun were so curious about his face!
“When will we take action?”
Pei Jue placed the steak he had cut in front of Qingwu, elegantly and calmly. “No rush, at least let my fiancée fill her stomach first. This restaurant’s steak is excellent, care to try it?”
“It is indeed good.”
After a al, Pei Jue took Qingwu directly to the seaside, leading her onto a yacht.
The yacht was brightly lit, hosting a low-key evening banquet, Pei Jue’s arrival attracting plenty of attention, but most gazes were still on Qingwu, whom he led by the hand!
Under the glow of lights, Qingwu maintained a calm deanor, like a queen surveying her subjects, brimming with exquisite elegance.
“Is that the young lady from the Shen Family? She’s indeed beautiful, a perfect match with President Pei.”
“The young lady looks even more stunning than on television!”
Pei Jue extended his hand, indicating for Qingwu to join him, and despite not being inford in advance of attending the banquet, her etiquette remained impeccable.
“Banquet?”
“No, just passing by, this yacht will pass by the port where Tarzan plans to leave.”
Pei Jue wrapped his arm around Qingwu’s slender waist, and with the rhythm of the waltz, they gracefully entered the dance floor, under the shimring lights, looking over the boundless waves of the high seas.
Pei Jue leaned close to Qingwu’s ear, lowering his voice, his magnetic and sensual tone falling into her ear, bringing a tingle.
“By the way, I also want to spend more ti with my fiancée. These days, I’ve missed you a lot. Have you thought of ?”
