She did not expect Mrs. Pei to be so unreasonable.
Ye Qilan clearly could not swim; the silk Chinese-style shirt floated up and down on the water, scaring the fish away in all directions. It seemed he had already swallowed quite a bit of water.
Pei Jundu hurriedly called for help.
“Someone help! Hurry and save him!”
Amidst the chaos, people scrambled around, finally managing to pull the falling Ye Qilan out of the water.
Fortunately, the Pei family’s resort had several lifeguards prearranged, and Ye Qilan only fainted from drinking too much water, with no serious harm done.
Pei Jundu wiped the sweat from his face, “Mom, what happened to you? Didn’t you have an appointment with Principal Ye? Why did you kick him in?”
Mrs. Pei sat down with a calm demeanor, adjusted the shawl on her body.
“His spot is perfect for fishing, a lot of fish there, and I want it, too. But he was too much of an eyesore, annoying to look at; I did not make the appointment with him.”
Just as Pei Jundu was still in shock, a van pulled over, and several strong and handsome young men got out, sitting obediently beside Mrs. Pei.
“Madam, we’re here.”
“Mm, keep your voices down, don’t scare away my fish.”
Seeing Mrs. Pei surrounded by five or six muscular men wearing only thin shirts with red bow ties at the collar, Pei Jundu was dumbfounded!
One of the male models glanced at Pei Jundu, leaned against Mrs. Pei’s shoulder.
“Madam, is this another one you ordered? He’s so old!”
“No, that’s my son, hurry and leave, you’re in the way.”
With a head full of questions, Pei Jundu turned around, walking awkwardly away.
Hearing the laughter behind him, he suddenly understood why his mom didn’t want to go home…
Qingwu looked at Tian Liang, who was driving the van, her lips twitching.
“When did this business start?”
“It’s always been here; you have no idea how lucrative it is. Don’t worry, boss, it’s just chatting with and providing emotional value to lonely elderly, not selling health products.”
Qingwu then remembered that Beidou Star lacked research funding for a period, so Tian Liang thought about doing some companion projects for lonely elderly.
The primary purpose was to care for empty-nesters, but she did not expect this type of care…
Qingwu listened to Mrs. Pei’s hearty and considerably brighter laugh.
“Be cautious with your words.”
“Rest assured, boss! Mrs. Pei was somewhat depressed; after booking our companionship service, she improved a lot! At least now she’s willing to take her medicine, which she didn’t before.”
Qingwu sensed from Mrs. Pei’s pulse that she probably had a severe depression tendency, with even some scars on her wrist.
Since it was a service project of Beidou Star, Qingwu felt more at ease.
Tian Liang winked at Qingwu.
“Boss, if you ever need this companionship service, feel free to choose any male model from our company!”
“They are all great! Enjoy those chest and abdominal muscles as you like! The service is top-notch!”
Looking at Tian Liang’s mischievous expression, Qingwu turned around and saw Pei Jue indeed behind her.
Who knew how much he had heard of the earlier conversation.
Seeing Pei Jue’s expression, it seemed he heard everything he should and shouldn’t have.
Pei Jue took Qingwu by the wrist, leading her forward without saying anything.
“Where are Big Sister and Second Uncle Pei?”
“They went to see Principal Ye. I’ll take you for a tour around the resort.”
His face betrayed no emotion, and just as Qingwu was about to relax, Pei Jue suddenly turned and picked her up, setting her on a flowerbed.
The flowerbed was a bit high, allowing Qingwu to look down at Pei Jue’s face.
“Put me down…”
His hand rested at Qingwu’s slender waist, his handsome features displayed a trace of indescribable emotions.
One hand grasped Qingwu’s hand, placed it on his chest.
Qingwu’s hand felt a bit hot, wanting to recoil, but Pei Jue firmly held it there, feeling the solid muscles and the faintly beating heart beneath her palm…
“Does my fiancée like it? You can go a bit lower too.”
Pei Jue wore a shirt, the top two buttons undone, revealing a taut shirt stretched across his waist and abdomen, outlining a six-pack beneath with each movement.
Qingwu quickly withdrew her hand.
“I didn’t know that was a service of Beidou Star, only found out now they have this project, but rest assured, Beidou Star won’t do anything inappropriate.”
Pei Jue chuckled softly, brushing aside the stray hair on Qingwu’s forehead, looking at her charming and captivating face.
Behind her was a flowerbed planted with lush roses; facing those bright, sparkling eyes, his heart uncontrollably raced.
“I heard, Grandma indeed has severe depression and used to have suicidal tendencies. After being rescued, she was kept in a nursing home. We don’t stop her from doing what she wants because of that.”
As long as it made Mrs. Pei happy, the Pei Family was willing to accommodate her.
“What caused the depression?”
“It was because of my mother’s incident and Shaojia’s mother’s incident happening consecutively; afterward, Grandma fell ill.”
Listening to the laughter from afar, Mrs. Pei was amused and laughed heartily with the male models, clearly in better spirits.
Qingwu looked in the direction of the sound, but before she could focus on those muscular male models, Pei Jue turned her head back.
“Look at me, don’t look at them.”
Qingwu finally understood Pei Jue’s current issue.
She raised her eyebrow, “Is President Pei thinking he’s comparable to them? Or do you also want to join our company and handle some of this business?”
How could this man even be jealous of a few male models responsible for companionship services?
He must have heard Tian Liang’s ramblings earlier and worried she would really seek out those models… even resorting to using his body against her hand.
Pei Jue buried his head in Qingwu’s waist, muffledly saying, “I’m worried Grandma would scare you away.”
“I told you, I consider you a friend. I really haven’t thought about marriage.”
Pei Jue’s obsidian-like eyes brightened slightly.
No intention of marriage, at least no intention of disengagement!
Looking at Pei Jue before her, Qingwu’s crow-feather-like eyelashes trembled lightly.
She mustered the courage to speak, “I don’t know how to date, but I don’t dislike you. Last time, you said to give you a chance… then let’s start from being friends.”
This was the biggest compromise Qingwu could offer.
Having witnessed too many farewells and separations from a young age.
Whether it was Lin Jingsheng and Qian Yueqiang, that kind of superficial couple, or various scenarios witnessed at Beidou Star, all diminished Qingwu’s confidence in marriage and relationships.
Perhaps it was returning to the Shen Family that gave Qingwu new feelings about relationships…
She should give Pei Jue a chance, and more importantly, give herself a chance!
“Great! We’ll start as friends!”
Pei Jue agreed in one breath.
As long as his girl hadn’t rejected him, he still had a chance!
