Chapter 279: Food Guarding Puppy
Chapter 279: Food Guarding Puppy
Bai Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly. She was not stupid, so she naturally knew what kind of friend the other person was talking about.
Faced with the long-lost yet familiar approach, Bai Yuan was not hurried and once again pulled out his new partner to stand in front.
"Then you should know that I already have friends I can talk to."
Logically speaking, Young Master Pei is used to being his superior in Haiqi.
Everyone in the circle knows that he is a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes.
Whenever we meet him, we always stay away from him, thinking less is better.
This is also one of the advantages that Bai Yuan valued when working with Pei Jinhe.
Even though Bai Yuan did not release any information about his marriage to the two.
But the fact that she and Pei Jin were attending together was enough to make many people feel fearful and stay away.
However, this was beyond Bai Yuan's expectations.
The other party did not back down because of this.
Instead, he became more courageous after facing more setbacks.
He was not discouraged at all by Pei Jin's reputation.
It's better to just reveal the real purpose.
He stopped pretending and said frankly:
"It's okay. I don't mind. I think the more friends the better."
Bai Yuan:......
Bai Yuan: Is that what I meant?
Bai Yuan: You Haiqi people are so avant-garde!
There are many people, just like the young man standing in front of Bai Yuan, who don’t really take the fact that Pei Jin and Bai Yuan are traveling together seriously.
Not to mention that there are only hints of a marriage, there isn't even a single serious news yet.
Even if two people really get together later, what can they do?
How many people can stay with their first love for a lifetime?
Opportunities are all earned by oneself.
Since he wanted to take advantage of the power of the Bai family, he naturally had to go all out, not be timid in doing things, and not set too high moral standards and psychological burdens for himself.
Even if we take a step back, is Young Master Pei's corner really so solid that there is no possibility of prying it open?
In a relationship, the one who is not loved is the third party.
They are just bravely pursuing "true love" in the process of fighting for the interests of their family.
Who is nobler than whom?
As long as it doesn’t reach the last moment, it is still unknown who is right and who will win.
Let's take a step back.
Even if you get married, can't you still get divorced?
Titles are all empty talk; only benefits are real.
This unique atmosphere really gave Bai Yuanyi a little shock from Haiqi.
Bai Yuan himself was not incapable of handling this kind of approach.
But now that we already have Pei Jin as a ready-made shield, we can't just leave it there and let it gather dust.
Naturally, we must make the best use of everything and maximize its value.
Bai Yuan simply overestimated the customs of the people of Haiqi and also overestimated Pei Jin's reputation.
I didn't expect that Young Master Pei was not as useful as I thought.
I didn't react in time for a moment.
I was controlled by the other party's words for several seconds.
When she came to her senses, after a small shock, she quickly adjusted her mindset.
Bai Yuan smiled, organized his words, and was about to say something.
Before I could say anything, I suddenly felt a strong gust of wind blowing beside me.
My waist also felt hot.
A strong and powerful arm was tightly placed around Bai Yuan's waist in an extremely possessive manner.
As if suppressing endless power, he half-held her in his arms, declaring his sovereignty.
At the same time, Pei Jin suppressed the unknown anger deep in his heart, his voice was low and cold, full of hostility and warning.
"Let me hear it too, how are you going to make friends with her?"
The voice pierces people's hearts like a sharp sword, making people shudder.
"Mr. Pei..." When the young man saw Pei Jin rushing out, a glimmer of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Seeing him like a puppy guarding his food, he was surprised for a moment and then quickly adjusted his mentality.
There was no embarrassment or awkwardness of being caught by the man who stole someone else's girlfriend. She also greeted him with a smile, "Where have you been? Bai Yuan couldn't find you. I was just saying that I would accompany her to look for you."
Then he looked at Bai Yuan again and said with regret, "Since Master Pei is back, I won't bother you any more. Bai Yuan, you can always come to me if you run into trouble next time."
Pei Jin snorted coldly, raised his chin, and said disdainfully: "Don't bother with that, just take care of yourself!"
After saying that, Pei Jin kept staring at the young man until his figure slowly walked away and disappeared from his sight at the corner of the corridor.
Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, like a victorious peacock, wishing he could lift his tail to the sky, "Why didn't you call me if you couldn't find me?"
Pei Jin maintained his original posture, and even though the other party had walked away, he still did not take his hand away from Bai Yuan's waist.
He had just heard that person say that Bai Yuan was looking for him everywhere, and the anger in his heart was reduced a lot. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and he was in a very good mood.
Hearing this, Bai Yuan took out his cell phone calmly, opened the address book, and said with a smile: "What do you think, Mr. Pei?"
Pei Jin then realized that he had not given Bai Yuan his contact information. He curled his lips and said awkwardly, "Why? Miss Bai, you can't even get my contact information?"
Without any hesitation or ambiguity, he took her phone, inputted his own phone number in a few seconds, added her as a WeChat friend, and clicked to approve the application.
After taking back the phone, Bai Yuan glanced at the time on the screen, raised his hand and patted Pei Jin's arm around his waist, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Pei, I'll contact you next time I encounter this kind of thing."
Pei Jin did not loosen his grip due to her actions, but instead slightly tightened his grip. Because he was close to her, he could smell the cold breath coming from her body. Pei Jin asked in a low voice:
"Thank me... for what?"
As he spoke, he leaned close to Bai Yuan's ear, and his voice and breath hit Bai Yuan's ear.
Bai Yuan raised his hand and patted his face in praise, then touched his head, "Thank you, Mr. Pei, for helping me so much."
Pei Jin blushed at her touch, and quickly stood up again, turned his head away, coughed lightly, and said in an attempt to cover up his mistake: "Of course you should thank me, ahem, how was it? I performed..."
As he was speaking, he suddenly remembered that this was just an agreement between the two of them and a mere performance. His deep blue eyes shook slightly, hiding the trace of unnaturalness that flashed across them.
Although his voice was a little weaker, he still went on talking.
"...Not bad, right? Your acting is perfect!"
"Well, it's pretty good." Bai Yuan was always generous with his compliments and said matter-of-factly, "It's just that Master Pei's reputation doesn't seem to be as effective as I thought."
According to Bai Yuan's expectation, the two words "Pei Jin" should be like the smoke in a hive. Once it blows up, all the bees will avoid it.
