Chapter 114 Return
Pei Yao was very busy in the next few days, and the lights in the conference room of Tantari headquarters were always on.
The busiest time was when we were expanding our territory. We had just opened up the Red Bay to connect with South Africa, and now we were busy with the Pacific route.
"There is a US military base in that sea area. They said this route is blocked and they won't allow it to pass." Simon was reporting to Pei Yao in the conference room, feeling quite worried.
Pei Yao had the top two buttons of his shirt undone, looking relaxed as he made tea for himself.
I don’t like drinking tea brewed by others, I always like to brew my own. I don’t know if it’s because I’m afraid someone will poison it.
He took a sip of Iceland and smiled nonchalantly, "I really pissed them off! It's been half a year, and they still hold a grudge against that region?"
Simon rubbed his brows, watched him drink his tea and swallow his saliva, and spoke earnestly.
"That's right. Ryan is an American after all, so he should be handed over to them. But you didn't cooperate with them and directly destroyed the rebel base first. How can they feel comfortable?"
"So you're trying to trip me up on the sea line?"
It is clear that the ** region is a complex tangle of forces from various countries, and everyone wants to get involved.
Originally, the war was over and the US army wanted to reap the biggest share, but Pei Yao accidentally went to rescue Little Lyon and took away the final credit.
But these things cannot be discussed openly. The US military is so angry that they find other ways to vent their anger.
Simon remained noncommittal and sighed, "What should we do? Should we give it to them, or should we fight them? Fighting them head-on is a bit troublesome. You might have to go there in person, which would take half a month."
Pei Yao said nothing, his slender fingers fiddling with the fairness cup.
Simon was really greedy and reached out to ask for a cup. Pei Yao turned around and poured the tea on the jade tea pet, which was warmed and glowed.
Tea nourishes jade, and jade nourishes people.
It's just that the carving of the tea pet is quite strange, the white porcelain jade Capybara, not pretty at all, and she doesn't like it as much as Lu Qi's ugly and rustic thing.
I deliberately didn't take it with me when I moved, but she kept thinking about it and ran back to get it, and she even liked to sleep with it in her arms.
I don't hold it in front of him, but whenever he's not at home, I take that thing out.
I saw the photos she posted two or three times during business trips. She loved to post all kinds of inexplicable pictures of her daily life, and they would also mark the time and place. There was always a tone as if she was whispering in your ear.
Suddenly, I had the urge to fly back. When I got home late at night, I saw that heartless man sleeping soundly with the ugly thing in his arms.
I got angry and threw the thing off the bed and refused to let her sleep. However, even after a few hours, I still didn't feel completely relieved when I went out the next day.
Until a few days ago, this person reluctantly mentioned the word marriage.
To be honest, he hadn't thought about it at first. He had no idea what marriage was. It was just a broken certificate, what was so special about it?
After hearing the voice message, I casually flipped through the so-called three golds and the so-called wedding customs, and looked at the pictures of phoenix crowns and bridal robes that she flipped through from time to time on the tablet.
This person is quite funny. She deleted the browsing history after searching. Is she afraid that he will find out that she has had a crush on him?
What's wrong with saying it? Just tell him. What can't satisfy her?
As I was flipping through the pages, a thought suddenly occurred to me - oh, so this is what's not enough.
Pei Yao said casually: "What day is it today?"
"Early October." Simon withdrew his hand from the tea and looked at him in confusion.
"Well, let's make the arrangements. We'll leave tomorrow."
This meant he was still planning to fight the American army. Simon nodded and called his assistant in. As he was making arrangements, he heard Pei Yao add, "Come back on the 21st."
Simon was stunned: "It's hard to say when we can mediate with the US military."
"I'll be back when I say I'll be back." Pei Yao raised his eyelids and gave him a glare, "Don't delay my work."
Simon's mouth twitched. This is not the main business. Do you have anything else to correct?
However, he didn't dare to ask. It was obvious that he was very unhappy about the American military affairs, and he was not in the mood to chat casually at the moment.
I just told the assistant once.
As Pei Yao was talking, he was about to leave with his clothes in his hand. Simon saw a pile of documents spread out on the table and asked hurriedly, "Where are you going, sir?"
"Go home." It means you can handle the rest by yourself.
Will you stop being angry when you get home?
Hearing the door close, Simon rubbed his temples. Although these documents were not something that his ancestors had to review, he did not have the confidence to handle them on his own.
Pei Yao recently decided to withdraw from the military supply chain and focus on energy trade. However, all the relationships he had established previously were dangerous, and without him in charge, Simon felt guilty.
I don’t know why our ancestors started to take the peaceful route.
Simon guessed that it must be related to the person in the building opposite. He found a soft spot and didn't want that person to be a widow.
Moreover, some of Pei Yao’s recent arrangements seem more and more like they are aimed at getting married.
-
Pei Yao drove back home by himself. The lights were bright as he entered the door. It was not too late for him to come back tonight, just after nine o'clock.
Dr. Lu was working the day shift and had given Rashid to use as her driver, so she got home early.
Pei Yao opened the door and got out of the car. He took out a folder and tossed the keys to Zha Han: "Where is she?"
"I just told Master Leon the story of Alibaba, and he's in the flower hall now." Zahan reached out to take the folder, but Pei Yao didn't give it to him.
Pei Yao's cold expression finally showed a hint of a smile, but his expression was full of disdain: "You didn't even tell me a story."
I came to the flower hall with a folder. The temperature and humidity of the flowers grown in the greenhouse were carefully adjusted.
Lu Qi sat in front of the flower table, not fiddling with the branches. He was just here to breathe in the air and smell the pleasant scent.
He was flipping through some brochures about aristocratic schools.
I took Leon in two days ago. I played with him for a few days, and now it’s time to think about sending him to school.
The five-year-old child was originally planned to be sent to kindergarten, but then Lu Qi thought about it and realized that the children in the kindergarten had been together for several years, and he would be easily isolated if he was not familiar with them.
I've given it a lot of thought, and even considered hiring a tutor.
But Mr. Pei disagreed, as he felt that his son was always bothering him at home, so he decided to send him to school.
But it’s too early now, so Lu Qi is thinking about the preschool education class in the aristocratic school.
Pei Yao stood by the glass door, folding his arms and looking at her for a while. Seeing her serious look, he reminded her that her husband had returned: "You don't even need to tell me you're back now."
Lu Qi turned around and pouted: "You came back and didn't say anything. Have you been standing there for a long time?"
He held the brochure in his hand and didn't go over. He said - it's not worth the money if you give it away for free!
Pei Yao strode over, walked behind her, and put his hand on the edge of the table, trapping her in the garden chair. He ignored her protest and looked at the brochure on her table: "Have you made your choice?"
"I'm still struggling with it." The topic of marriage was not mentioned again that day. Maybe it was just over, she thought.
"Then I'll think about it tomorrow and show you something else." Pei Yao pulled the brochure aside and placed the folder in his hand right in front of Lu Qi.
