Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 110 Baby, you're awake?

"Baby, are you awake?"

Hearing Pei Ming's gentle and magnetic voice, Ming Wei instantly snapped out of her daze.

In her line of sight, Pei Ming was sitting on the stool by the bed, looking at her with tender eyes.

The next second, Ming Wei suddenly sat up in bed. She was familiar with this room, and she even saw the clothes she wore yesterday on the bench at the foot of the bed.

Mingwei quickly glanced at the clothes she was wearing. Judging from their looseness, it must be Pei Ming's T-shirt.

"Why am I sleeping in your bed? What did you do to me yesterday?" Ming Wei looked at Pei Ming warily. It was really hard not to have some doubts in this situation.

"What do you think?" Pei Ming gave a slightly mischievous smile, deliberately trying to tease Ming Weiyi at this moment.

Pei Ming's meaning was too clear, and Ming Wei angrily swung a pillow from the bed and threw it at Pei Ming.

"Pei Ming! You took advantage of my vulnerability!"

“If I really took advantage of you, you should be naked right now.” Pei Ming caught the pillow that Ming Weiyi threw at him, then got up and walked to Ming Weiyi.

Before Ming Wei could make any further moves, Pei Ming raised his hand and pointed to the shirt and jeans on the bench at the foot of the bed.

“You said last night that your clothes were too hot, and I also felt that it would be uncomfortable to sleep in them, so I kindly changed you into something more suitable.”

Mingwei could imagine the scene of changing clothes. She pointed at Pei Ming, both angry and embarrassed, and said fiercely, "You! You took advantage of me when I wasn't paying attention!"

"We're husband and wife, what's wrong with me taking advantage of you?" Pei Ming's wicked smile became even more obvious.

However, changing Mingwei into a comfortable outfit last night really pushed Pei Ming's patience to its limit.

"You still know we're husband and wife?" Ming Wei also raised her eyes, her gaze towards Pei Ming was once again very sharp.

“Weiwei, things aren’t what you think…”

"I don't want to hear your nonsense right now. Please have Aunt Luo prepare a change of clothes for me and some food. Now get out of here!"

She couldn't remember anything she said to Pei Ming last night, and she couldn't remember even more what Pei Ming said to her. The only thing she remembered was the matter between Pei Ming and Xia Wanfeng.

Anyway, it was still early today, and there was plenty of time, so Pei Ming wasn't in a hurry. He went out of the room and took care of the things Ming Wei had asked him to do.

In a hotel not far from the river, the sun shone brightly outside the window, and fluffy clouds floated in the blue sky.

Xia Wanfeng is leaving Jiangcheng this afternoon, and before she leaves, she really wants to have a proper meeting with Ming Weiyi.

With just over an hour until lunchtime, Xia Wanfeng decided to take the initiative to invite Pei Ming and Ming Weiyi to lunch together.

She was mainly curious whether Pei Ming had managed to seduce his wife last night.

Driven by curiosity, Xia Wanfeng dialed Pei Ming's number.

On the other end of the phone, Pei Ming was sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for Ming Weiyi. He answered the call casually.

"Hey, how did things go yesterday?"

"To be honest, your idea is pretty bad. We haven't even explained it to each other yet."

As a participant, Pei Ming didn't hold back in criticizing Xia Wanfeng's ideas.

Xia Wanfeng chuckled, "Hahaha... Is it that she doesn't believe you and I are acting?"

“I haven’t had a chance to explain to her yet. She drank too much yesterday and just woke up now.”

"You're drowning your sorrows in alcohol? It seems she likes you more than I thought."

"Do you even need to say this?"

Xia Wanfeng could hear the smugness in Pei Ming's tone. Since she was the one who came up with the bad idea, it was her turn to deal with it.

"Before I leave Jiangcheng, let me do one last good deed for you."

"Thank you, but please stay away from me!"

Pei Ming had learned this phrase from Ming Weiyi, and it was perfectly applicable to Xia Wanfeng now. After hanging up with Xia Wanfeng, it took another ten minutes or so before Pei Ming finally received Ming Weiyi.

However, Mingwei ignored him and walked towards the restaurant while looking down at her phone.

My phone was off all night, but it still showed many missed calls, and my WeChat messages were flooded.

Following Ming Weiyi's footsteps, Pei Ming also entered the restaurant. Ignoring Ming Weiyi's indifference, he still sat down opposite her as usual.

Upon seeing Pei Ming arrive, Ming Wei also opened Qi Fei's WeChat. Rather than letting Pei Ming bother her, she decided to chat with Qi Fei while eating.

Qi Fei was still in bed, scrolling through videos, when she saw Ming Weiyi calling her on WeChat and answered immediately.

"What, you're only just now remembering to let me know you're safe?"

Mingwei also placed her phone on the dining table and pressed the speakerphone button so she could talk to Qifei while eating.

"Oh dear, my phone died yesterday, so I went straight to bed when I got home."

Pei Ming hadn't eaten breakfast either; he chose to eat quietly so as not to disturb Ming Weiyi's phone call.

Besides, Qi Fei and Ming Weiyi's conversation is probably quite interesting, so it wouldn't be bad for him to be a free listener.

"I was so worried about you last night. I was afraid you'd been kidnapped."

Upon hearing the word "abduction," Ming Wei smiled and asked, "Then why didn't you call the police?"

“I called Du Lian and asked him to find out about your situation from your marriage partner. Du Lian said that you two are together, so I’m relieved.”

Qi Fei's words made Pei Ming glance at Ming Weiyi's phone. It turned out that Du Lian had called last night to ask about Ming Weiyi's whereabouts, on behalf of Qi Fei.

"When did you two exchange contact information? You didn't even tell me!" Ming Wei always managed to catch the gossip accurately, and the smile on her face as she ate the melon was very genuine.

"I've even had dinner at his house. So what if I have his contact information?"

At the dining table, besides Ming Weiyi, Pei Ming also showed a surprised expression.

Du Lian, that kid, he's been keeping it all under wraps!
"So what's the current status of you two?"

Being able to enjoy a delicious melon while having breakfast instantly lifted Ming Wei's spirits.

"Just a regular friend. Anyway, it's a long story. I'll tell you about it when I'm slacking off at work tomorrow."

"Can't you just get to the point?" Mingwei Yijuan won't be able to sleep until she finishes this gossip today.

"It's really not short. I'll explain it to you in detail tomorrow. I'm eating melon seeds right now."

"What melon?"

Qi Fei switched her phone screen, and the image on the screen was a trending topic about Xia Wanfeng.

"You weren't feeling well yesterday and went to bed early, so you probably didn't see Xia Wanfeng trending on social media."

The moment the words "trending topic" appeared, Pei Ming's heart leaped into his throat. He knew about the trending topic of him and Xia Wanfeng drinking by the river.

“I saw it…” Ming Weiyi’s smile gradually disappeared; she felt uncomfortable whenever the matter was mentioned.

"I think the person who was having a secret rendezvous with Xia Wanfeng by the river is very likely our CEO Pei."

"Be more confident, and remove the phrase 'very likely'," Ming Wei said, her eyes filled with murderous intent as she looked at Pei Ming.

"Cough cough..." This topic was too sensitive, and Pei Ming absolutely could not let Qi Fei continue. He deliberately pretended to choke and coughed lightly twice.

Qi Fei heard a man's voice on the other end of the phone and asked gossipily, "Is your boyfriend next to you?"

Ming Wei stared at Pei Ming and replied casually, "No, there's a dog next to me."

"Hahaha... watch out, he might bite you."
