Seeing that he was willing to continue talking, Pei Gong's face immediately blossomed into a relaxed and unguarded smile, "Pei Corporation is a good choice. Although it can't guarantee you'll get the current position right away, at least the motives are pure, don't you think?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow flashed quickly before his eyes. By the time he came to his senses, the left half of his face was numb with pain, and a trace of blood welled up in his mouth.
"You wanted to know my attitude, didn't you? This is my attitude. If you don't want to be seriously injured, don't let me see you again in the future, or I'll beat you every time I see you." Pointing a finger at Pei Gong's panicked face, Jing Hong roared.
Although he had never been involved in business, he was very clear about the rules of the commercial world. For a person who might pose a threat, you either bring them under your command and let them shine and contribute, or you completely destroy them if you can't get them, to prevent them from becoming your biggest enemy.
Pei Gong's approach was undoubtedly to weigh the pros and cons. If he was rejected, then he would initiate the destruction mode until he completely destroyed the other party.
However, he overlooked a crucial point. Jing Hong was not a person who would submit to fate. He was someone who could completely risk his life to gamble with you. So when cooperation really broke down, it meant that things had already begun to develop in an uncontrolled direction.
The cooperation ended in failure, and the news that Jing Hong had joined the opposing company quickly reached Jing Meng's ears. Jing Meng was both happy and worried, hoping that he could really create a world of his own.
To ensure that Jing Hong was really safe in the opposing company, she had people investigate everywhere. After investigating for several days in a row, she didn't see any bullying, but the matter couldn't end like this yet.
With all her attention focused on Jing Hong, Jing Meng had no time to take care of anything else. Pei Cheng, who had been bored in the company for several days in a row, ran over, "Meng Meng, it's so boring to stay in the company all day. Why don't you take me out to play?"
Under normal circumstances, this would be a very simple matter, but to his surprise, Jing Meng actually refused him.
Ruffling the hair on his head perfunctorily, Jing Meng said with a smile, "Because I still have a lot of things to do, so can we go out to play in a couple of days?"
Hearing this, Pei Cheng's face immediately collapsed. He stubbornly raised his head and questioned in a childish voice, "Work! Work! Is there only work in your eyes?"
Without listening to Jing Meng's explanation, he turned around and ran away as soon as he finished speaking.
Children's words are often ignored. Jing Meng had never taken care of a child, and she couldn't figure out his thoughts even more. She only thought that he was throwing a tantrum and would be fine in a while.
"Sister Meng, this data seems to be wrong." Jing Meng was hurriedly called away before she could think too much.
Just as she entered the laboratory, Pei Cheng walked out of the corner in a lost mood. He thought Meng Meng would be different, but he didn't expect that work was still more important in her heart.
A young heart was deeply hurt. He walked forward with his head down and small steps. Unknowingly, he came to Pei Shiyi's office.
Pushing the door open on tiptoe, he saw the secretary working busily inside, with files piled on the desk so high that he could hardly see his face.
"Cheng Cheng?" The secretary stood up, looking at Pei Cheng, who looked dejected, in surprise. "What's wrong? Your little face is all wrinkled like a bitter gourd."
Not understanding what had happened, he could only do his best to make him happy at this time.
However, the feeling of being ignored lingered in Pei Cheng's heart. He lowered his head and stared at his toes. "Can you send me home?"
The secretary was stunned at first, not knowing what was wrong with him. Just as he was hesitating about what to do, a gentle knock sounded on the door. When he saw Pei Qing, it was as if he saw hope running towards him.
Pei Qing was also a shrewd person. If it were anyone else, he would definitely stand aside with his arms crossed and watch the show, but the one who was wronged today was not someone else, but his little darling.
"You were still so excited just now, what's with the frostbitten eggplant look now?" Pei Qing bent down to pick him up, reaching out to tease him while not forgetting to pinch Pei Cheng's chubby cheeks.
With a wronged expression, he wrapped his arms around his neck and rested his chin on his shoulder, shedding golden tears.
Waving his hand, Pei Qing motioned for the secretary to go out first, and he would enlighten him step by step. "What's wrong, do you miss Daddy?"
When Pei Shiyi was mentioned, Pei Cheng subconsciously nodded, then seemed to remember something, and slowly shook his head again, "I want to go out to play with Meng Meng."
Hearing this, Pei Qing already understood the reason why he was crying so sadly. He found it funny for a while, but he was afraid that laughing would hurt his fragile and young heart again, so he could only laugh silently while he didn't turn his head.
After the smile passed, he explained the reason in a serious manner, "Meng Meng doesn't not want to play with you, it's just that she has too many things to do, so she accidentally forgot that children need to go out to play. So now, shall I take you out to play?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Pei Cheng shook his head directly, "But I just want to play with Meng Meng, I don't like anyone else."
Anyone else?
These three words were like a sharp knife, directly piercing Pei Qing's heart. He covered his face and cried, completely unlike an adult, even more childish than Pei Cheng's age.
Having long been accustomed to his fake crying, Pei Cheng didn't hesitate at all. He broke free from his arms and waited for him to finish crying with the maturity of an old soul.
With no one to accompany him in the act, Pei Qing couldn't continue his performance. He sighed helplessly, poked Pei Cheng's chest with his finger, and snorted coldly, "You little ungrateful thing, I'm using all my life's skills to make you happy, but you're still thinking about an outsider. I'm so sad."
The words were just casual, but Pei Cheng retorted with a serious face, "No, Meng Meng is not an outsider."
His eyes widened, and his little hands clenched into fists, imitating the restrained appearance of an adult. His rosy mouth was tightly pursed, as if he would be rude if anyone dared to say anything bad about Jing Meng.
He didn't know what kind of bewitching soup Jing Meng had given him, but she could make a child so devoted to her. Pei Qing didn't care whether there was dust on the ground or not, and sat down casually with his knees bent, sighing helplessly.
It's not good to develop the habit of frowning at a young age. Pei Qing had to think of ways to make him happy. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly had an idea, so he showed a sly smile, "I have a way to make Jing Meng take you out to play on her own initiative. Do you want to hear it?"
Although Pei Cheng was still young, he also knew that besides being a thoughtful person at work, Pei Qing was simply a child in life. He would always come up with some unreliable and harmful ideas.
When he heard that Pei Qing had a good idea, he couldn't help but feel repulsed. After struggling for a long time, he still decided to listen with a try-it-out attitude, craning his neck.
Seeing this, Pei Qing didn't stand on ceremony. He leaned close to his ear and whispered, "No matter how good the method is, it still requires your cooperation."
Looking at him suspiciously, he thought for a moment before deciding to trust him one more time. "Okay, I will cooperate well."
The two hit it off and did it. Pei Qing hugged Pei Cheng in his arms like a thief. The two took advantage of the fact that others hadn't reacted and ran out of the company in a puff of smoke, and began to implement the planned plan.
At the same time, Jing Meng, who had finished her work, suddenly remembered that Pei Cheng seemed to always care about playing with her. Now that she had some time, she would play with him for a while as a relaxation.
However, she searched the entire company and couldn't find Pei Cheng anywhere. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition arose for no reason.
She searched back and forth in the company in a panic, asking almost everyone, but no one said they had seen Pei Cheng. Jing Meng's heart tightened.
She dialed Pei Shiyi's number, but the busy tone kept ringing over and over again, making her even more upset. She hung up the phone irritably, grabbed her hair weakly, and looked helplessly at the fine lines on the floor, feeling extremely irritable in her heart.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. Her dim eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance. It was Pei Shiyi's return call.
