401 He Finally Found Out!
ââ¦â
Three black dots appeared above Su Jiâs head. Three seconds later, she replied, âI know. â
âThen why would you?â Casar wanted to say something, but he hesitated. Perhaps she really didnât know how much teasing she was teasing a grown man. He reorganized his thoughts and said earnestly, âI know that your boss is indeed a very capable and charming person. Even if you donât have a boyfriend, you must know thatâ¦â
Su Ji was quite interested in the information related to Pei Huai. âWhat? â
Casar glanced at the tightly shut door, as if he could not bear to tell her the harsh truth, but after some struggle, he decided to tell her.
He looked into her eyes and said, âhe has a girlfriend.â
Su Ji: ââ¦â
She felt that she had just wasted 30 seconds of her life.
Su Ji leaned back in her chair. âOf course I know.â
Casar was shocked again.
This girl was really bold.
However, not only did he not hate her, he liked her even more. What should he do?
In the end, rationality prevailed over emotions. Casar moved his chair closer to her. âSince you both are taken, you should have a sense of boundary. Even I, someone from XBY, felt that the way you picked up his chopsticks just now was too intimate. Next timeâ¦â
Su Ji understood and interrupted with a smile. âYouâre mistaken. We are actually⦠â
Before she could finish speaking, Pei Huai finished his call and pushed the door open. His gaze fell on the two people who were next to each other. His tone was cold. âWhy are you sitting so close?â
Casar subconsciously pulled away and then realized that he was trying to help Su Ji. What was there to feel guilty about?
Su Jiâs words were interrupted.
Casar found a random excuse. âIâm talking to my housemate, why are you so anxious?â
Pei Huai opened Casarâs document unhurriedly. âDo you need to send all the assistants outside to talk to your housemate?â
Casar took out a cigarette to hide his guilt. âWeâre talking about the show. Itâs confidential. The fewer people who know about it, the better. â
Pei Huai signaled to the waiter with his eyes. The waiter nodded and turned on the air filter in the room.
When Casar saw that he had finally opened his document, he calmed down and stopped talking about other things.
Although the food was to her liking, Su Ji was 80% full and did not want to eat anymore. She started scrolling through her phone.
Pei Huai looked at the documents and glanced at Su Ji from time to time.
He saw her playing with a piece of veal between her chopsticks, but she kept going back and forth without putting it into her mouth.
He felt like feeding her.
The preliminary results of the calligraphy competition had not been released yet, so Su Ji was browsing the entertainment news.
Zhou Xuefangâs crying was ranked 19th on the trending searches. Su Ji did her the honor of clicking on it and saw the exciting footage.
Zhou Xuefang was probably drunk. Her eyes were as red as a rabbitâs and she was crying. Unfortunately, the netizens did not buy it. Not only did they not sympathize with her, but they even took screenshots and made them into emojis.
There was also a video of her manager, Chen Jing.
In the short video, Chen Jing raised her hand to block the camera. Her tone was cold as she expressed that she was no longer working with Zhou Xuefang. She hoped that everyone would pay more attention to her new artiste, Fang Shuangshuang.
She was quick to change.
The top trending searches were basically all news related to âCohabitationâ.
Ever since it started airing, their show had dominated the rankings for several days in a row.
As âCohabitationâ received more and more attention, the fans gradually formed groups. There was no need to search for detailed information about the guests. There were already a bunch of people who were ready to answer those questions.
Su Ji knew a bit about everyone. Pei Xi asked her to do her homework in advance.
However, a piece of information about Dr. Wang Yi caught her attention.
Wang Yi returned to China last year. According to the exposé, he had been working at the National Institute of Life Sciences ever since.
He also mentioned that he went to work at the research institute every day.
After he became popular from the show, many fans wanted to go to where he worked to take a shot of him
Everyone knew that the National Institute of Life Sciences was mysterious and sacred. Ordinary people couldnât enter. They just wanted to take a picture of Dr. Wang Yi driving to the research institute.
In the end, no one managed to capture Dr. Wang Yi entering and leaving the research institute.
One of Wang Yiâs fanatical fans had been waiting since six in the morning. She looked at the cars one by one, but she did not see her idol!
This puzzled the netizens.
Doesnât Dr. Wang Yi work here?
Why couldnât they get a shot?
If he didnât come here for work, then where did he go?
Recalling the mysterious bottles and jars in his roomâ¦they suddenly had goosebumps.
Su Ji was engrossed in reading the news, while Casar and Pei Huai were discussing the next stage.
Before the smoke from Casarâs cigarette could reach Su Ji, it was filtered out by the air filter.
Seeing that Pei Huai was not relenting, Casar tried to appeal to his emotions. âYou definitely wonât be at a loss. Also, just do me a favor. Donât make me lose face in front of my girl.â
âYour girl?â Pei Huaiâs gaze slowly landed on him and he frowned.
Now that Casar knew Su Jiâs intention, he thought that it might be better to say it aloud, âyou have a girlfriend, but Iâm single.â He looked at Su Ji. âIâve taken a fancy to that girl. This time, Iâve come to China partly for you and partly for her. If I get the project, Iâll be able to impress her.â
His tone was quite sincere, but he did not notice that Pei Huaiâs face was dark.
If he did not say this, Pei Huai would have given him the project.
However, at the moment he would not even see the shadow of the project.
âYouâre interested in my girlfriend?â Pei Huai sneered.
Casar was puzzled that he did not understand. He continued, âyour girlfriend? I said Iâm interested inâ¦â
As he spoke, Casar suddenly froze.
He finally understood.
âYou mean Su Ji?â Casar almost choked on his cigarette. He was coughing hard, but he did not wait for himself to recover before he continued asking, âsheâs your girlfriend???â
He raised his voice. At the dining table, Su Ji also looked away from her phone screen and glanced at them.
