Chapter 396 The Greedy and Lustful Secretary 08
Pei Ci was a powerful and awe-inspiring figure in the business world, so no one forced him to drink.
Pei Ci took a few symbolic sips of the wine that everyone offered him.
Putting down the wine glass, Pei Ci's deep and sharp eyes quickly locked onto Yan Jiu's figure in the crowd, and then he walked towards her without hesitation.
The middle-aged man standing next to Yan Jiu felt the cold gaze from Pei Ci, and his body seemed to be hit by an electric current, and he began to tremble uncontrollably.
His face turned pale in an instant, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed out from his hairline and slowly slid down his temples.
His originally wretched eyes were now filled with fear and anxiety, and he looked around in panic.
"Pei, President Pei, I see that your beautiful secretary is feeling lonely here, so I came over to show some concern..."
The middle-aged man pretended to be calm and tried to explain, trying to find an excuse for his behavior, but his slightly trembling lips and dry throat made his voice sound nervous.
Pei Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze was filled with bone-chilling coldness, as if it could freeze the air around him.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly in a mocking arc, but there was no trace of a smile.
That expression was more like examining an ant that was about to be sentenced to death.
Her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was extremely annoyed and disdainful of the middle-aged man's poor excuse.
The lines on his face were cold and tough, appearing even more majestic under the bright lights. People around him seemed to be able to sense the low pressure emanating from him, and they unconsciously backed away from him.
Pei Ci interrupted the middle-aged man expressionlessly, "I don't think Old Master Liu has many years left to live. You'd better be able to maintain the little fortune your Liu family has and don't let me take action myself."
Pei Ci's voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable deterrent force. Every word was like a heavy hammer hitting the middle-aged man's heart.
"Thank you, Mr. Pei, for your mercy." The middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his sweaty face in panic. His hand was shaking like he had Parkinson's disease and he couldn't stop.
His legs couldn't stop shaking, and he fled the scene in a panic.
Pei Ci completely ignored the curious and fearful glances from those around him. He picked up the tissue on the table and wiped Yan Jiu's hands gently but with a hint of dominance. He said with a hint of reproach, "Why did you let that dirty thing touch your hands?"
Yan Jiu's delicate face was full of innocence. She blinked her big watery eyes and asked with a puzzled look, "Why is he dirty?"
Pei Ci paused for a moment, as if considering how to phrase it. After a moment, he said, "He's been married for several years and has kept more than a dozen mistresses outside. He hands over his room card whenever he sees a woman. Don't pay attention to him."
When Yan Jiu heard this, a sweet arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was crisp and pleasant: "Well, I ignore him, I only care about you."
When Pei Ci heard Yan Jiu's words, he felt as if a warm current was flowing through his heart.
I subconsciously pinched Yan Jiu's soft little hand, feeling the delicate touch, and I couldn't let it go.
He raised his chin slightly, nodded in a very good mood and said, "Yeah."
[The Egg System gave Yan Jiu a thumbs-up: "My lady, you're awesome! Pei Ci ignored you at the last banquet, but this time he even took the initiative to wipe your hands."]
