Therefore, Jiang Tingxu could clearly hear Director Pei when he called her ‘aunt.’
So much so that she paused her step forward instantly, and stood silently on the spot.
In response, Pei Xintong showed a miserable face.
“You still know that I am your ‘aunt’?”
Her tone sounded very angry.
Well, as someone who always put up an air, how could she accept the slightest bit of disregard from others?
Pei Rusi was much calmer than his other two cousins. He did not show any emotion on his face at all. He replied
“Did aunt have something to talk to me about?”
Pei Xintong did not answer. She was trying to put up an air.
Perhaps she had lived abroad for a long time. She did not know much about her nephew.
“I’m swamped, and I don’t have much time to chat, so if aunt has anything to say, just say it!”
At this moment, the proud Pei Xintong could have felt a significant blow and was about to vomit blood in her heart.
This nephew of hers was different from the other two nephews at home!
The fact that Pei Rusi was a few years older than his two cousins. His knowledge, life experience, and social encounters were many times richer than the others. How could they be the same?
Knowing that her nephew was not like the other two nephews, she said,
“I want to visit your uncle Gu in the ICU ward. Help me tell the nurse there.”
She now knew that she should get straight to the point!
Pei Rusi lowered his eyes and thought for a while. He nodded and agreed,
“Okay! You can go there directly. I will inform the nurse.”
After getting the answer they wanted, the three turned and left.
Pei Rusi was not bothered by this event. He swept his gaze over and saw a figure not far away. He felt awkward, strode forward and asked,
“Did you hear everything?”
Jiang Tingxu felt uncomfortable being caught all of a sudden. She replied,
“No, I didn’t hear anything.”
She would not admit it!
However, Pei Rusi laughed. He said,
“Alright.”
Hmm, knowing without saying anything.
However, after the two walked side by side for a while, Jiang Tingxu could not help but ask,
“Is that your aunt?”
Clearly, this question was within Pei Rusi’s expectations. He replied,
“Yes, she is.”
In the end, he specifically explained the relationship between them.
There were many things that naturally went without saying.
Regarding the woman she just saw, one had to admit that she was very beautiful. Even more so If she was twenty years younger than she is now.
Time treated this woman very well!
So, when faced with such a beautiful woman, could a man resist her?
Even if he could reject her once or twice, what about 10 or 100 times?
Could he?
This was probably impossible.
“I heard that Director Wen took a leave of absence!”
Eh?
“Why didn’t I know about it?”
Pei Rusi was amused, he said,
“This, I wouldn’t know. I’ll get busy. I’ll make a trip to Director Gong’s place.”
Jiang Tingxu nodded and replied,
“Oh, okay.”
Of course, Jiang Tingxu knew that Auntie Wen had asked for a leave of absence. She also knew that it was Gu Ranzhi’s doing!
This was good. She could avoid those that she didn’t want to see.
…
When she returned to the office, she heard her phone vibrate in the drawer as soon as she sat down.
“Hello, baby.”
“Mom, Ningning will come to pick you up from work now.”
Jiang Tingxu looked at her watch and replied,
“It’s only three o’clock. It’s still early.”
On the phone, Little Boy said in a soft voice,
“Ningning is so bored at home. Dad is out too. Mom, Ningning is coming over to look for you!”
“Well…”
“Mom, did you dislike Ningning? Ningning will be very obedient and won’t run around. Mom, please agree!”
