Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 24 Three views follow the five senses

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Fu Baiqing in the planning department, Pei Ming left.

No sooner had he and Fu Baiqing left than the entire planning department, while sharing milk tea and cake, began discussing the very good-looking CEO Pei.

“My colleagues in the legal department were absolutely right, President Pei is even more handsome in person than in the video.” Qi Fei stood close to Ming Weiyi, and her eyes clearly confirmed her approval of Pei Ming’s good looks.

"You said yesterday, 'What's the use of being handsome! You're so heartless. Why aren't you cursing me today?'" Ming Weiyi said, holding a strawberry cake. After she finished speaking, she scooped a spoonful of cream and put it in her mouth.

Qi Fei also picked up a piece of cake, "Oh, didn't they just come to apologize? Never mind, let's not hold it against them."

"You're just a sucker for good looks. You only care about someone's appearance, and your values ​​are dictated by their looks."

"I admit I'm a sucker for good looks, aren't you? If you're still angry that President Pei canceled the proposal, would you eat the cake he bought?" In Qi Fei's view, Ming Wei was eating the cake one bite after another with great relish.

"The food in the cafeteria wasn't good at lunch today, so I didn't eat enough. I'm just hungry now." Ming Wei wasn't angry with Pei Ming at all, because Pei Ming had already repaid her by treating her to hot pot last night.

"You're just being stubborn. Do you think I can't see through you, you face-obsessed person?" Qi Fei finished complaining to Ming Weiyi, then took two steps back and sat down in her seat.

A strawberry cake was almost finished. While eating what Pei Ming had bought, Ming Wei thought to herself, "Pei Ming! I'll settle the score with you later!"
However, Mingwei also thought about it again and realized that Pei Ming was just trying to tease her. What bad intentions could he possibly have?

From this perspective, Pei Ming is not a boring person after all.

Inside the elevator, the upward arrow was constantly lit, and the number keys indicated that the elevator was going to the twentieth floor.

"President Pei, you pointed at Miss Pei just now on purpose, didn't you? I could see the murderous rage in her eyes."

There were only Pei Ming and Du Lian in the elevator, so Du Lian didn't need to worry about what he was saying.

"It would be so pointless if I just pretended not to see her when I actually saw her." Pei Ming chuckled to himself, thinking of the look Ming Weiyi had given him just now.

"From the moment I heard you mention the marriage alliance, I knew this matter was not simple. Judging from your attitude towards the eldest daughter of the Ming family these past few days, I can deduce that you must have had feelings for her all along, right?"

Du Lian took in the undisguised smile on Pei Ming's face. He had been by Pei Ming's side for two years and knew him quite well.

This question made Pei Ming, a grown man, feel a little awkward, so he chose to avoid it, saying, "Ask what you should ask, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

"No denial means admission." Du Lian's face showed a smile of someone who had just gotten the scoop.

Pei Ming turned his head and gave Du Lian a slight glare, a look that told Du Lian to shut up.

Receiving a look from Pei Ming, Du Lian didn't intend to say anything more, but Pei Ming couldn't stop Du Lian's gossipy soul.

He really wanted to know. He had been by Pei Ming's side for two years and had never heard Pei Ming mention the name Ming Weiyi, or even the Ming family. So when did he start to develop feelings for the eldest daughter of the Ming family?
No wonder Pei Ming chose Jiangcheng as the location for his new energy production base. It turns out that in addition to Jiangcheng's superior geographical location, the most important reason is that his eldest daughter, the Ming family, is located in Jiangcheng.

Thinking of this, Du Lian chuckled to himself: Pei Ming, who never seems to have a romantic life, turns out to be a devoted lover, hahaha…

At night, a gentle breeze stirred the curtains, and a cool breeze blew into the Pei family's living room, carrying with it the delicate fragrance of gardenias.

With nothing to do, Wenlan and Tong Ziyan were pruning flower branches and leaves, making flower arranging a nice way to pass the time. "Ziyan, do you have time this weekend?" Wenlan asked, holding a bunch of pink and purple peonies. The flowers had intricate petals and large blooms, giving them a very elegant appearance.

"The final exam is next month, and this weekend my student wants to ask me to give her some training on playing a piece," Tong Ziyan answered Wen Lan's question softly. She then took the peonies that Wen Lan had trimmed and put them in a vase.

"Is your schedule very tight?"

"Mom, it seems you want to ask me to do something?" Tong Ziyan stopped what she was doing and looked at Wen Lan with a smile.

"Yes, I wanted to ask you to come with me to choose the things to prepare for Pei Ming's engagement banquet. You have good taste."

"That's a big deal." Tong Ziyan was beaming with joy as she spoke about Pei Ming's engagement.

Wenlan smiled gently, "Yes, that's why Mom wanted to go shopping with you. I always felt that if I just casually asked someone else to do this, it wouldn't show my sincerity."

"Okay, I'll call you after I finish teaching my students and give you some good advice."

Wen Lan had always been pleased with her eldest daughter-in-law's gentleness and virtue. She looked at Tong Ziyan and asked, "Ziyan, have you seen any jewelry you like lately?"

"Me?" Tong Ziyan pointed to herself in surprise.

"Yes, when Pei Ming gets engaged next month, I guess Weiwei will wear the set of jewelry you picked out for her. You should also pick out a new set of jewelry this weekend, so you can look beautiful then."

Tong Ziyan shook her head. "Mom, I already have enough jewelry. You don't need to spend any more money."

"What's the big deal? I just love seeing pretty girls wearing beautiful jewelry." Wen Lan looked at Tong Ziyan with a smile in her eyes.

"Then I won't refuse. You can pick one you like when the time comes. It's only natural for Pei Cheng to be filial to you."

Speak of the devil, and he appears; no sooner had Tong Ziyan finished speaking than Pei Cheng appeared before her.
The two women, mother and daughter-in-law, were chatting so amicably that they didn't even notice Pei Cheng, a grown man, standing right in front of them.

"What does filial piety mean?"

“Pei Ming is getting engaged next month, and this weekend I’ve arranged to meet with my mom to finalize the details that need to be agreed upon at the engagement party.”

"Yes, this is Pei Ming's business. How did it come up to me?" Pei Cheng clearly heard his own name just now.

“My mother and I have to attend Pei Ming’s engagement party. We are the face of your Pei family, so you have to spend some money to buy us beautiful clothes, shoes, and jewelry.” Tong Ziyan said, then walked to Pei Cheng’s side and took Pei Ming’s arm with a smile.

"Buy, buy, buy... Take Mom shopping this weekend, buy whatever she likes." It's just spending money, which is the simplest thing for Pei Cheng.

"My daughter-in-law is the most filial." Wen Lan happily gave Tong Ziyan a look that said, "It has to be you."

So I'm just invisible?

"You're not invisible, you're our family's ATM."

After saying that, Wen Lan continued to leisurely arrange the flowers on the table. Tong Ziyan was amused by her words and burst into laughter, while Pei Cheng had a face full of black lines.
