Novel Full Chapter 130 - 130 130 She Now Has New Family Members
Chapter 130: Chapter 130 She Now Has New Family Members Chapter 130: Chapter 130 She Now Has New Family Members Each gallery exhibition was always managed by Feng Han and her team.
Additionally, since the gallery was not established by Elder Zuo Jing’an for profit, and Tan Hua was not specifically in charge of exhibitions, no one knew that Feng Han had quoted such high prices!
It turned out she had been secretly siphoning money from the gallery all this time!
“It’s nothing, you can tell just by looking.”
She had reviewed all the exhibitions the gallery held over the years.
Coincidentally, some materials had been developed by Beidou Star. After testing, they did not meet Qingwu’s requirements, so the patent was sold to another lab.
No one knew the cost of those materials better than she did!
Moreover, the excess in Feng Han’s quoted prices was simply outrageous.
Those material patents were indeed sold to the Su Family’s company, while the successful products from Beidou Star’s experiments were sold by Beidou Star’s own company.
Under Shen Boyi’s supervision, there were several material companies that had long-term collaborations with Beidou Star.
“Miss, even though Feng Han has been taken away, will her people leak information about the exhibition? Will our exhibition tomorrow be affected?”
Tan Hua never imagined that Feng Han could be such a person!
If she could siphon money from the gallery for so many years, who knows if she might also leak some trade secrets to the Su Family’s gallery!
“Don’t worry, I’ve already made changes. Let’s start setting up once the materials arrive.”
“Okay!”
Although Tan Hua still felt a bit uncertain about tomorrow’s exhibition, seeing Qingwu’s calm expression suddenly filled her with confidence!
The young lady was so capable; who knew what trump cards she had yet to reveal?
After dealing with the gallery matters, the moonlight hung high outside the window.
Annie knocked on the office door, “Miss, President Pei is here to take you home for dinner.”
Dinner? They were supposed to have dinner at the Shen Family tonight, and it seemed it was getting late. The elders had probably urged her several times already.
She took out her phone and indeed found several messages from Elder Shen, asking why she hadn’t returned home yet.
“Xiao Wu, why haven’t you come home yet?”
“Buy a box of date paste yam cakes for grandpa on your way home. Grandpa wants to eat some.”
“Oh, it’s fine if you can’t buy them. No need to go out of your way; just hurry back home!”
…
Qingwu’s lips curved into a gentle smile, as if she already saw Elder Shen nagging endlessly in front of her, eagerly wanting to eat the desserts.
“Grandpa, I’m heading home right away. Don’t wait for me to have dinner, you all eat first.”
Elder Shen replied almost instantly, “You must wait! Come back quickly, dear!”
Qingwu got up and put on her coat, continuing to discuss the exhibition setup details for tomorrow with Tan Hua as she walked out.
Annie followed behind, a courteous smile on her face.
The young lady was so charismatic when she worked!
Just listening to her organize work, one could feel the charm emanating from her every move. It was utterly captivating…
“Miss, don’t worry, I will definitely keep an eye on things. You go home for dinner first.”
“Alright, see you tomorrow.”
Qingwu approached the Cayenne parked by the roadside. Annie had already opened the car door in advance, bowing slightly as she awaited Qingwu to get in.
Pei Jue sat inside the car, his gaze never leaving Qingwu. From the moment she got into the car, his eyes stayed on her like the heat of the moonlight!
Every time he saw her, he was reluctant to look away, always feeling like he could never see enough!
“Would it be convenient to go to Yongle Square first? My grandfather wants to eat the pastries from there.”
Annie immediately replied, “Convenient! Definitely convenient!”
The young lady had given the order. Going to buy pastries was no issue at all.
Pei Jue looked bewilderedly at Annie, wondering why his assistant was so enthusiastic toward his young lady.
“Thank you.”
“Miss, don’t mention it. Given what you said, President Pei would definitely agree!”
Annie was trembling inside, seeing her boss’s displeased expression in the rear-view mirror. Had she said something wrong just now?
After thinking about it for a long time, Annie finally realized, it was probably because she was too enthusiastic about the young lady, which made President Pei jealous… Who could blame her for the young lady’s immense charm?
To protect her job and future, Annie decided to be an exemplary personal assistant, ready to please her boss anytime, anywhere.
Sure enough, once she said this, President Pei’s expression improved quite a bit!
“Does my fiancée have any favorite pastries?”
“No, I don’t like sweets.”
Most Chinese pastries were rather sweet, but when Grandma Lin was alive, she too loved the date paste yam cakes from Yongle Square. Seeing Elder Shen express a desire to eat them made Qingwu’s heart feel sweet and nostalgic.
Her current family was also wonderful!
However, no one could replace Grandma in her heart. Although Grandma never had the chance in this life to coquettishly ask her for two pieces of date paste yam cake…
Thinking of Grandma Lin, a slight melancholy filled Qingwu’s eyes.
Pei Jue squeezed Qingwu’s small hand, reached out to wrap her waist, and pulled her gently toward him.
“Let go.”
“Let me hold you for a bit, it’ll be quick. My fiancée might not know how tiring it is to review so many financial reports.”
The workload at Pei Group was immense. Before meeting Qingwu, Pei Jue practically lived and ate at the corporation, rarely going home.
But after meeting her, he always wanted to go home!
Even though his home remained cold, with luxurious decor fit for a showroom, devoid of a real home’s warmth.
Just standing in his room, looking at the lit bedroom with the pink lace curtains she pulled down, the flickering lights accompanied Pei Jue through countless days and nights…
He longed for the days he could live with her!
Until then, even just watching her room from across the grand garden was enough!
Qingwu felt at a loss for words. Such intimate gestures, yet she didn’t push Pei Jue away.
She merely said calmly, “Too much work, and it can be left undone.”
“Silly heartless girl.” Pei Jue’s breath fell on her neck, warm and ticklish, like a feather brushing past, making Qingwu instinctively shrink her neck.
His voice was low and seductive, with a teasing undertone.
“I work hard so I can have more time to accompany you.”
Otherwise, why would he pile all the work together?
“But now it seems, my fiancée is also a workaholic. Looks like I need to make an appointment to date you in the future.”
He waited outside her office for a long time. The gallery’s office was a large piece of floor-to-ceiling glass; just by looking up slightly, Pei Jue could see his girl busy inside.
Turns out, even just watching her like that, he felt his heart leap. Every time he saw her, he couldn’t restrain his wild infatuation!
Outside Yongle Square, Pei Jue stopped Qingwu, “I’ll go buy it, it’s windy outside.”
The night breeze in Beijing was indeed a bit harsh, the night slightly chilly. He couldn’t bear her getting off the car to face the wind.
Qingwu had no choice but to wait inside the car, watching Pei Jue, impeccably dressed in a suit, step out and stride into the teahouse that sold pastries.
This man seemed always to become the center and focus of any crowd, with the surrounding lights just his backdrop!
Ten minutes later, Pei Jue returned to the car with a large heap of pastries.
“Why so much?”
Elder Shen needed to control his blood sugar and couldn’t eat that much pastry.
“I bought a set for everyone. When you were preparing gifts, didn’t you tell me to also remember your family? They will be my family too.”
His tone was gentle, his expression tender.
“Xiao Wu, I love you, and I will love your family as well.”
