Chapter 1098 I Decided Not to Like Him

This thought made Hao Mengyan tremble with fear, and she immediately pinched herself hard to remind herself not to have such messy thoughts anymore.

"It's okay, it's not serious, it's just a slap." Hao Mengyan pretended not to care, but in fact her face was burning and numb, and she even had tinnitus.

Hao Teng used all his strength. If the slap had hit her ear directly, her eardrum would have ruptured and she would have become disabled.

Pei Shaoqing snorted and laughed, "You don't look like that at all. After all, you are a girl, and if your face is swollen like this, people will easily think too much."

Then he looked at Hao Mengyan's assistant and said, "Go get some ice for your sister Yan."

The assistant nodded shyly and immediately ran to do it happily.

Although their company is not big, it has everything it needs, including a tea room.

The assistant took out ice cubes from the refrigerator, wrapped them in a towel and handed them to Pei Shaoqing, "Mr. Pei, this is for you."

Pei Shaoqing smiled, "For you, Sister Yan."

"Oh." The young assistant was so mesmerized by Pei Shaoqing's smile that he forgot that he had deliberately not given it to Hao Mengyan, which was actually to create an opportunity for them.

Hao Mengyan looked at the man sitting opposite her, and her heart was moved again.

She was now sitting at the assistant's workstation, while Pei Shaoqing was sitting at the desk, so they were facing each other. Although she was looking up at Pei Shaoqing, there was no condescending look on the man's face. Instead, there was a smile on the corner of his lips.

In the past, she pursued Pei Shaoqing, and their relationship had never been so close. Now that they have become allies, they get along even more harmoniously.

Pei Shaoqing asked her: "Your father suddenly came to the company to find you, is it because of the 10 billion?"

Hao Mengyan nodded, "Well, you asked me to return the shares. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"Did Xiaojiu tell you about Rong Jin?" Pei Shaoqing was very interested. He guessed what the little girl wanted to do. It was quite interesting.

Hao Mengyan nodded again.

Rong Jin's appearance surprised not only her father Hao Bohua, but even her. It seemed that her father was on the verge of being abandoned.

She was deeply touched by what Lu Xi once said: get the Hao family and become the master of the Hao family.

This was something she had never dared to think about. She had only thought about running the studio well and having a deposit of tens of millions in the future, and living off the interest. But now, she had become greedy.

But Rong Jin is the granddaughter of the Hao family after all, but she is useless to the Hao family, and the Hao family will never give her to them.

Seizing power was harder than she thought.

At this moment, Hao Mengyan couldn't help but look at Pei Shaoqing next to her. This was the man she once liked, and more importantly, he was a smart man she could trust.

His appearance was like that of a hero, saving her from the chaos. How could she not be moved?

Hao Mengyan was so absorbed in watching that she felt dazed and the ice pack in her hand fell to the ground.

Pei Shaoqing bent down to pick it up, put it on Hao Mengyan's cheek, and teased jokingly: "What are you thinking about, Miss Hao?"

Hao Mengyan's cheeks suddenly turned red, and her heartbeat became uncontrollably irregular. She didn't know what was wrong with her, so she blurted out, "If I said I was thinking about you, what would you think?"

Pei Shaoqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "What do you miss about me? You don't miss the money in my card, do you? Don't worry, it's yours, it's all yours."

"Sister Yan, someone is looking for you." The assistant's voice was not loud, but she looked embarrassed. After giving the reminder, she glanced at Qin Xiaoru. Just now, when Pei Shao said "It's yours, all yours", the person had already arrived.

They both looked towards the door at the same time, only to see Qin Xiaoru holding the shoulder straps of her backpack with both hands, like a student.

Hao Mengyan immediately panicked and quickly stood up, "You're here."

Pei Shaoqing's smile was cold, "Did you ask Qin Xiaoru to come here?"

"Yes, but I..."

Before he could finish his words, Pei Shaoqing immediately stood up angrily, "Hao Mengyan, are you sick? Why did you let her come here for no reason?"

"Why can't I come? Sorry to bother you?" Qin Xiaoru glared at him with a smile on her lips. This feigned anger looked as if she could not help teasing her friends after seeing them being intimate.

In Pei Shaoqing's opinion, Qin Xiaoru really doesn't care about him and Hao Mengyan being together.

"You know the answer, but why are you asking? We were just about to kiss, how can we kiss when you come over?" Pei Shaoqing said something with a half-smile, deliberately angrily, but half-true and half-false, just like when he usually said to Qin Xiaoru, "Qin Xiaoru, I like you", making it hard to tell how serious he was.

"I'll say a few words to Hao Mengyan and then I'll leave. You can kiss again later. I'll close the door for you then. You can kiss or do whatever you want."

"Oh, I didn't expect you to be so perceptive." Pei Shaoqing sneered.

Qin Xiaoru was equally unwilling to be outdone, "Yes, I have taken care of the young master for so many years. If I can't even do this, how can I be your babysitter?"

The two of them were at loggerheads, and Hao Mengyan was frightened when she heard this. She hurried over and said, "Qin Xiaoru, don't get me wrong. Pei Shaoqing and I are not in that kind of relationship. We haven't had sex, and it's impossible for us to get married."

"I know, I've read all the news online, but that's your business. You really don't have to come to me to talk about it, because I don't care at all. I have someone I like, and I sincerely hope that you two can be together."

After Qin Xiaoru finished speaking, she curled the corners of her mouth, then turned and left.

The smile in Pei Shaoqing's eyes froze instantly.

"Chase him." Hao Mengyan urged.

Pei Shaoqing sneered, "What are you chasing? Didn't you hear her say? She has someone she likes."

Hao Mengyan glared at him, "How is that possible?! Let me tell you, a girl's sense of smell is quite accurate. I'm sure she likes you."

Pei Shaoqing's eyes seemed to be brightened up in an instant, "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's true. If she doesn't like you, I'll tear her head off and use it as a stool for you to sit on."

Pei Shaoqing couldn't help but smile, "You are a rich lady after all, please don't say such things in the future, thank you."

Hao Mengyan smiled and watched Pei Shaoqing chase after her. The smile on her face was gradually dimmed. She didn't even notice the ice pack falling.

"Sister Yan, are you okay?" The assistant was a little worried.

Hao Mengyan came back to her senses and smiled, "It's okay, what could be the problem? You can go and get busy too."

"Sister Yan, why did you let President Pei chase her? You clearly..." The young assistant has been with Hao Mengyan for several years. From the time when there were only two of them in the studio, using a rented house as an office, to when they expanded and settled in Hengfeng Building, the young assistant watched Hao Mengyan grow step by step.

In fact, Hao Mengyan did not have much of the glory of a rich family's daughter, and her sadness was no less than that of ordinary people when they started their own business, so she actually felt sorry for Hao Mengyan.

Hao Mengyan chuckled, "Yes, I obviously like him, but he doesn't like me, and now I feel that instead of considering love more important than anything else, I might as well work hard to make money. Although it was a bit uncomfortable at first, when I saw the account balance skyrocketing, the emotional pain actually seemed insignificant, so I decided not to like him anymore."
