Chapter 169 Dry Wood and Raging Fire

The press conference had just ended, and Ming Wei and her entourage hadn't even reached the elevator when Tang Ying called.

Mingwei also had a premonition that Tang Ying must have seen the press conference just now.

"Hey Dr. Tang, what brings you to call me at this hour?"

As soon as Ming Weiyi spoke, Pei Ming knew who had called her. Seeing that Ming Weiyi was standing still, he gave her a look that told the others to go first, and then he also stood still.

"My colleagues in my department said you were trending on social media and told me to check it out. And wow, it was quite a sight!"

Tang Ying stood in the tea room with her water cup in her hand. There weren't many patients in the emergency room right now, so she and Ming Weiyi had some time to chat.

Hearing the hint of schadenfreude in Tang Ying's tone, she pretended to be calm and asked, "What's so interesting about it?"

Mingwei could guess what Tang Ying would say next. She and Tang Ying had been together for so many years, and she knew better than anyone what Tang Ying was holding back.

Sure enough, Tang Ying replied with a mischievous smile, "Not only husband, but also lover, tsk tsk tsk... With that one sentence, you've got Pei Ming completely under your thumb."

Ming Wei knew that her guess was right. She knew that Tang Ying, like Xia Wanfeng, would definitely use this sentence to tease her on purpose!

"Sis, please stop talking. Can you just pretend I never said that? You're making me feel really awkward..."

Ming Weiyi was genuinely embarrassed; she could even imagine how Qi Fei would tease her with that phrase later.

Upon hearing Ming Wei also tell Tang Ying to pretend she hadn't said that sentence, Pei Ming easily guessed which sentence it was, and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips.

"Haha, anyway, I'm not embarrassed. My colleagues even asked me to tell them your love story with Pei Ming."

"Did you tell me?" Mingwei knew she was asking a question she already knew the answer to; how could Tang Ying not tell her!
Just as Tang Ying was about to answer, she heard a nurse calling her. She quickly said one last thing into her phone: "I have to go now, someone in the department is looking for me..."

Tang Ying hung up the phone, and Ming Wei remained calm; she had seen this kind of situation many times before.

Seeing that Ming Weiyi had finished her phone call, Pei Ming very affectionately put his arm around Ming Weiyi's shoulder.

"Honey, do you know what I really want to do right now?"

Mingwei instinctively wanted to push Pei Ming away; this was inside the company!
"What are you doing? This is the company!"

Pei Ming didn't let Ming Weiyi push him away. Instead, he moved his head even closer to Ming Weiyi and asked, "What's wrong with the company? You've already openly expressed your love for me, so it's okay for me to hug you, right?"

The first was Xia Wanfeng, the second was Tang Ying, and now it's Pei Ming. Ming Wei really feels like she's being publicly executed.

However, Mingwei felt no awkwardness in front of Pei Ming, as her feelings for him were genuine.

Mingwei also thought of the first question Pei Ming had asked her. She looked into Pei Ming's eyes and asked, "So tell me, what do you want to do now?"

Pei Ming grinned mischievously again, then leaned close to Ming Weiyi's ear and whispered, "I really want to take you home right now, and then..."

"Stop! Your head is full of lewd nonsense. Can't you be serious for once in the company?"

Ming Wei quickly cut Pei Ming off before he could speak, nudging him in the chest with her elbow and giving him a "shut up" look.

Pei Mingcai ignored Ming Weiyi's gaze. While Ming Weiyi was still in his arms, he quickly planted a light kiss on her lips. Since everyone at the Ming Group learned of Ming Weiyi's identity, the day had passed exceptionally quickly as everyone was gossiping.

The night was gentle, and the moonlight spilled across the windowsills. The lights from every household shone like stars, adding brilliance to the night.

The two people leaned comfortably against the window, each holding a glass of red wine, seemingly savoring the beautiful evening.

Looking out the window towards the dining room, the plates, bowls, and chopsticks were casually placed on the table, indicating that the two had just finished their dinner.

"Is Xia Wanfeng going to tell Xiaoming and his wife's love story or not? If she doesn't, my WeChat is going to be bombarded with questions about it..."

After saying that, Qi Fei smiled and raised her glass to take a sip of the red wine. She really didn't know much about Ming Weiyi and Pei Ming's love story, otherwise she would have told them already.

"If you want me to tell you, just say so. No need to beat around the bush." ​​Doesn't Du Lian know Qi Fei? She's just asking for gossip.

Qi Fei knew Du Lian was a smart man, and she was really looking forward to getting the full story.

She happily hooked her arm around Du Lian's neck, leaning her entire body against him, and then rested her chin against his chest.

"Speak quickly, I'm listening."

Qi Fei threw herself at Du Lian late at night, right in Du Lian's house. Du Lian's heart raced. Luckily, he hadn't drunk much, or he would have easily gotten drunk.

"President Pei chose Jiangcheng as the location for his new energy industry at that time..."

……

After hearing Du Lian's story, Qi Fei's maternal smile widened even more. "Holy crap! Xiao Ming should fall in love with President Pei; they're destined to be together forever!"

Knowing that Pei Ming had been pursuing Ming Weiyi all along, and that his devotion to Ming Weiyi was genuine, and that Ming Weiyi and Pei Ming's relationship was getting better and better, Qi Fei, as Ming Weiyi's friend, was truly happy for Ming Weiyi.

"They're locked in for life, so are we, right?" Du Lian looked down slightly at Qi Fei's eyes, his gaze both gentle and intense.

Seeing Du Lian's gaze, Qi Fei was deeply moved. She tiptoed and kissed Du Lian, which was the best answer to his question.

Suddenly, something popped into Du Lian's mind. He lifted his shirt and placed Qi Fei's hand on his body.

"Don't you like touching my pecs and abs? I'll let you touch them to your heart's content now."

Du Lian's actions and words made Qi Fei burst out laughing. "I said that on purpose to annoy you. I didn't touch her!"

Du Lian was very pleased to hear Qi Fei's words, and Qi Fei really did touch his upper body without any restraint.

On this sweltering night, Du Lian pressed down on Qi Fei's hand, which was resting on his chest, and then used his other hand to tightly embrace her.

When their eyes met, Du Lian kissed Qi Fei tenderly, as if he wanted to pour all his emotions into the kiss.

Their kisses transformed from tender to passionate, desire ignited in that moment, and they kissed each other wantonly, from the windowsill to the living room and into Du Lian's bedroom.

Finally, Qi Fei collapsed onto Du Lian's soft bed. Her heart was pounding. Du Lian's passionate kisses and caresses made her both nervous and expectant. Unable to suppress their impulses, they became like dry tinder, an unstoppable flame.
