Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 81 How dare you make a move on my wife?
The sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window was still bright. The flight back to Jiangcheng would take off on time. Pei Ming and Ming Wei were already sitting in the airport's VIP lounge.

This wasn't a private space, so Mingwei chose to mute her microphone and lean back on the sofa. These family matters had to be discussed when they got home.

Just as Mingwei was getting a little bored while scrolling through short videos, two WeChat messages popped up at the top of her phone screen.

Mingwei also casually opened the floating window of WeChat, and saw that the person who sent her the message was Tang Zhe from the sales department.

"I haven't heard from you for two days over the weekend. Did you go out and have fun?"

"I'd still like to treat you to a meal to thank you in person. Do you have time today?"

Ming Wei frowned slightly, thinking to herself: Is this person joking? Why should I necessarily reply to his messages?
Also, I've already said I won't go out to eat with him. Does he not understand Chinese?

"I've already said that you don't need to treat me to a meal. We can talk about anything at the company from now on."

Mingwei quickly replied, hoping that Tang Zhe would stop sending her any messages outside of work hours.

"I'm sorry, I disturbed your rest time."

"But I just can't help wanting to find you, and I don't know why."

After receiving two more WeChat messages from Tang Zhe, Ming Wei became even more annoyed. She knew perfectly well what Tang Zhe was up to.

Now Mingwei is certain that Qi Fei was right about the gossip she had told her back then.

"Say one more word and I'll block you."

Pei Ming noticed Ming Weiyi's disgusted expression and asked her curiously, "Did someone upset you?"

Just then, Pei Ming spoke up, and Ming Wei had a sudden inspiration. She thought it wouldn't be bad to use Tang Zhe to test Pei Ming.

“Our planning department often liaises with the sales department, and a guy from the sales department added me on WeChat. These past few days, he's been trying to ask me out to dinner.”

"Who's from the sales department?" Upon hearing that someone wanted to invite Ming Weiyi out to dinner, Pei Ming's face turned sour at a visible speed.

The sales department people are really bold; they even dared to make a move on my wife!

Ming Wei was quite satisfied with Pei Ming's sudden change of attitude, so she stopped being annoyed. "Oh well, you don't need to know him. Anyway, I told him not to message me anymore, or I'll block him."

Pei Ming was quite satisfied with what Ming Weiyi said, but he still instructed Ming Weiyi, "If he harasses you again, tell me."

In Pei Ming's mind, this trivial matter had escalated to the level of harassment, which made Ming Wei chuckle. "What, are you going to fire him?"

Pei Ming blurted out, "Otherwise what?"

"No, no, it's not that bad. In the end, it's just that others don't know who I am."

"If he knew who you were and still dared to harass you, I would break his legs."

"This is a society governed by law, don't talk nonsense." Ming Weiyi said this, but what Pei Ming had just said was enough to make her very happy.

Mingwei felt that this test of Pei Ming had been quite effective, and she was fairly satisfied with it.

On the other hand, Pei Ming was not happy at all. Ming Wei was so beautiful and charming with a good personality. In addition, not many people in the company knew her identity, so she was really easy for other men to have their eyes on.

Far from the airport, a large ecological farm lay quietly under the setting sun. Small wooden cabins were nestled among the lush green grass, surrounded by a lake. The farm was filled with birdsong and the fragrance of flowers, making it feel like a paradise on earth.

After passing through the seemingly endless farm, the Pei family's two cars finally stopped in front of a villa with excellent feng shui.

Upon hearing that the Pei family had arrived, Tong Ziyan's parents appeared in the living room on the first floor.

Upon meeting, the parents exchanged a few pleasantries and then sat down on the sofa together. Pei Cheng greeted the Tong family couple very respectfully, but he consciously stood aside.

"Zhenhua and I should have brought Pei Cheng to apologize first thing this morning, but as you know, this is Pei Ming's first time visiting our Pei family, and we really can't leave."

Picking up where Wenlan left off, Pei Zhenhua added with a smile, "Well, no sooner had Pei Ming's wife left than we rushed here to apologize to you two."

"There's no need for an apology. That matter happened before Pei Cheng, and our Tong family can let it go."

After saying this, Tong's father looked up at Pei Cheng, who was standing to the side, and continued, "However, how to properly handle what has happened depends on Pei Cheng's performance."

“Yes, whether Zi Yan can calm down and stop arguing with Pei Cheng depends entirely on how Pei Cheng behaves.” As she spoke, Mother Tong also looked up at Pei Cheng.

"Dad, Mom, where's Ziyan? Can I talk to her alone?" Pei Cheng came to the Tong family mainly so that he could bring Tong Ziyan home today.

“Ziyan isn’t home. She said she knew you would come looking for her, so she doesn’t plan to stay home for the next few days.”

What Tong's mother said made Pei Cheng feel a little uneasy. This was the first time that Tong Ziyan had completely ignored him and refused to see him.

"You two can rest assured, Zhenhua and I share the same idea. Our Pei family will absolutely not acknowledge any child born to another woman. That woman and child have absolutely no relation to the Pei family."

Pei Zhenhua nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I assure you both today that Pei Cheng's child can only be born to Zi Yan."

The Tong family originally thought the Pei family would keep the child, but they never expected that Pei Zhenjia and Yan Jie would choose not to have this grandson.

Pei Zhenhua and Wen Lan's words had satisfied the Tong couple, and they turned their gaze to Pei Cheng again, as if asking him what he meant.

"Dad, Mom, my thoughts are the same as yours, and I will not let that child into the Pei family."

"Okay, with you saying that, Ziyan's father and I can rest assured."

Since the Pei family has all expressed this stance, the Tong family has nothing more to say.

Moreover, the fact that the Pei family has come in person to apologize shows that Tong Ziyan still holds a significant place in their hearts.

"Mom, could you give me some information? Where did Ziyan go?"

Pei Cheng didn't know where Tong Ziyan was; he could only hope that Tong Ziyan's mother would tell him.

Tong's mother shrugged. "To be honest, I don't know either."

"Okay, I'll go find her later."

Pei Cheng suddenly remembered what Ming Weiyi had said before she left: Tong Ziyan would only return to the Pei family if he resolved the issues concerning Xu Ling and the child. It seemed that Tong Ziyan was going to keep her word.

Therefore, in order to find Tong Ziyan as soon as possible and bring her home, Pei Cheng must quickly deal with the child's situation.
