Over the weekend, Si Ruohan stayed home with Pei Xi, declining invitations from friends to go out drinking. While
he was home, Si Ruohan had several types of cosmetics suitable for pregnant women delivered, allowing Pei Xi to choose and see which scent she liked.
In addition, Si Ruohan transferred a large sum of money to Pei Xi and gave her his black card, telling her she could buy whatever she wanted.
Pei Xi looked at the black card in her hand; it was the first time in both her lives she had ever seen such a card!
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll squander all your money?”
Si Ruohan shook his head:
“Swipe, swipe as much as you want. My money is your money. Your husband can still support you.”
A new week began, and Si Ruohan, who had been relaxing at home for two days, was preparing to go back to work.
Early in the morning, Si Ruohan woke Pei Xi up as well.
Pei Xi pushed him away, muttering,
“You’re the one who needs to go to work, I don’t need to, why did you wake me up!”
This guy was pinching and squeezing her, making it impossible for her to sleep.
Si Ruohan stole a kiss on her lips and coaxed,
“Xi Xi, how about you come to work with me today? There’s a break room in the office, you can continue sleeping there.”
Pei Xi frowned,
“Can’t I just sleep at home?” Why does she have to
go to work with him? Isn’t that redundant?
“You also need to get up for breakfast, you can’t sleep if you’re hungry, right? Since you have to get up anyway, come to the company with me today, otherwise, if people ask you later, you won’t know where your husband’s company is.”
Pei Xi wasn’t going to fall for it! She pouted and said,
“Just tell me, that’s enough! I’ll write down the address, and next time, next time I want to go, I’ll come find you.”
This little mouth is really too infuriating, Si Ruohan kissed her until she was breathless before letting go.
“Come to the company with me. I’ll give you a gift when we get there.”
Pei Xi, who was just about to start cursing, immediately perked up when she heard Si Ruohan mention a gift.
“Really? What kind of gift?”
Could it be that she’s going to be his secretary? She’s pregnant! She doesn’t want to go to work!
Si Ruohan helped her sit up.
“It’s a secret for now. You’ll find out when we get to the company. Okay, hurry up and wash up, I have a meeting this morning!”
Knowing she was getting a gift, Pei Xi’s attitude became more enthusiastic. Whatever it was, it was a bonus for her, how could she not be enthusiastic?
Considering they were going to Si Ruohan’s workplace, Pei Xi wore a black slip dress with a gray blazer. The color of Pei Xi’s dress matched Si Ruohan’s blazer quite well; they looked like they were wearing matching outfits.
After breakfast, Si Ruohan told Liu Ma that they wouldn’t be back for lunch, and then set off with Pei Xi.
Pei Xi had been subtly trying to get information out of Si Ruohan the whole way, wanting to know what kind of gift it was. But Si Ruohan was tight-lipped and didn’t tell her anything.
Pei Xi really didn’t know how big Si Ruohan’s company was. Watching Si Ruohan drive the car into the underground parking lot of a building, she had just seen the huge logo on the building that read Tengxing Technology.
The car stopped shortly after, and Pei Xi asked Si Ruohan curiously,
“Is this Tengxing Technology your company? Is this whole building yours?”
When Pei Xi was in school, she had heard her classmates talk about this company, saying that the salary was very good and the benefits were better than most companies.
So this company is so big!
Pei Xi felt that the company name sounded very familiar. Was it because she had heard about it so much in school?
Pei Xi once again felt the difference in their status. No wonder he could afford such an expensive villa, buy her so many things, and give her a supplementary credit card to use as she pleased. He really was a true tycoon!
Si Ruohan smiled and unbuckled his seatbelt.
“Now she’s yours too. Don’t forget, you’re the boss’s wife!”
Si Ruohan got out of the car first, then went around to the other side to open the car door for Pei Xi. He then led Pei Xi directly into the elevator and upstairs.
Everyone was busy preparing for the morning meeting.
The elevator doors opened, and footsteps approached. Everyone looked up simultaneously and saw their CEO walking in with a beautiful girl.
The secretaries were stunned. They hadn’t seen him for only two days, and their CEO already had a girlfriend? This was too surprising! Who was this girl? She had actually managed to win over their CEO, this unattainable beauty.
Some of the female secretaries even whispered “wows,” the man was handsome, the woman beautiful, they looked perfectly matched.
The CEO arrived, and everyone greeted him.
“Good morning, CEO.” “Good morning, CEO.”
…
Si Ruohan was also in a good mood, responding with a smile.
“Good morning, everyone! This is my wife, Pei Xi. I brought her here to introduce her to you all.”
What? Madam, did they just hear wrong? The president said “wife,” not “girlfriend”?
Si Ruohan dropped this bombshell, ignoring everyone’s thoughts, and led Pei Xi into his office.
Pei Xi followed him in, tugging at his sleeve.
“Why did you introduce me to everyone like that? Aren’t you afraid your family will find out? Didn’t we agree to keep it private?”
Si Ruohan patted Pei Xi’s hand.
“Don’t worry, my parents don’t come to the company often, they won’t find out.”
Since Si Ruohan had already said that, Pei Xi had no choice but to believe him.
“Alright, I’m here with you now. Where’s the gift? What is it? Now I should know, right?”
She was already here, shouldn’t he bring out the gift? He’d been keeping her in suspense the whole way.
“Wait a moment, I’ll be right there.”
Si Ruohan made a phone call, and a young man wearing glasses came in a moment later.
“President, here’s what you wanted.”
The man handed the documents to Si Ruohan and stood aside.
Si Ruohan introduced him:
“Xiao Xi , this is my assistant, Lin Feng. If you encounter any problems while I’m not around, you can ask him for help.”
Lin Feng nodded to Pei Xi.
“Hello, Madam.”
Pei Xi had been curiously observing Lin Feng, he looked like a professional elite, so he was Si Ruohan’s assistant!
Seeing Lin Feng greet her, Pei Xi nodded gracefully.
“Hello.”
Si Ruohan said, looking at the things in her hand,
“Lin Feng is the only person around me who knows your true identity. Come, look, this is a gift for you.”
Si Ruohan handed the documents to Pei Xi, who took them with a puzzled look.
“What is this? Why are you being so mysterious?”
Pei Xi took them, glanced down, and after a moment, looked up at Si Ruohan in surprise.
It was a share transfer agreement and a real estate transfer agreement!
“These are all for me? This is too valuable!”
Pei Xi pushed the documents in front of Si Ruohan; there were too many, she dared not accept them.
Si Ruohan told Lin Feng to go out and do his work, letting the two of them have a good talk.
Pei Xi and Lin Feng went outside, Pei Xi frowning as she said,
“This really won’t do. This isn’t child’s play. How could you give me something so valuable? And for free! I’m already quite content. You don’t need to do so much.”
Si Ruohan pulled Pei Xi over, made her sit on his lap, and hugged her, saying,
“It’s not much, just 5% of the shares. Also, the villa we live in now—I want you to feel more comfortable and secure.”
Isn’t 5% of the shares in such a large company a lot? Even if Pei Xi was naive, she knew how valuable this was.
Pei Xi was very touched that Si Ruohan had gone to such lengths for her, and her eyes reddened.
“Silly girl, who’s as silly as you? What would you do if I ran off with all this? Are we that close? You’re so generous to me; do your parents know how wasteful you are?”
Si Ruohan laughed heartily.
“You’re not just anyone, you’re the mother of my child, my wife, the person I’ll spend my life with. I’m giving you these things, just accept them. Don’t overthink it, consider it saving for our future child.”
With that, Si Ruohan shoved a pen into Pei Xi’s hand, urging her to sign quickly.
Pei Xi looked at him with a troubled expression:
“Do I really have to sign this?”
Si Ruohan nodded, “Yes! You can’t refuse.”
Pei Xi had never heard of money being offered so readily.
Pei Xi separated one of the documents and signed only one.
“I don’t want the shares, take them back, I just want the house.”
Pei Xi signed the document and then stuffed it into Si Ruohan’s hand.
“I’ve already chosen, you’re not allowed to give them to me again, understand? You’re the CEO, how can you just give away company shares like that? Take them back now, or I won’t talk to you anymore, not even about the child.”
Seeing Pei Xi’s angry threat, Si Ruohan gave in.
“Okay, I got it, I’ll take it back, alright? Don’t be angry, or the baby in your belly will be unhappy too. Alright, things are done. Do you want something to drink? Or do you want to continue sleeping?”
Pei Xi wasn’t sleepy at all and didn’t want anything to drink, so she refused.
“No need, I’m not sleepy, thirsty, or hungry right now. You go back to work, I’ll just sit on the sofa and look at my phone for a while.”
Si Ruohan didn’t let Pei Xi just sit there idly. He had his assistant get Pei Xi some food and drinks and put them on the table before he went to his meeting with peace of mind.
