Chapter 733: Chapter 627: Pei Sheng: There are quite a few perverts around me_2
Pei Sheng: ââŚâ
This đŹontent is taken from fĐłeewebnovŃl.cođ˘.
Watching Pei Shengâs evasive gaze, Xu Shuoâs brows slightly furrowed, âHow old is she this year?â
Pei Sheng: âAround twenty-sixâŚâ
This is still a May-December romance.
Xu Shuoâs mouth twitched, âWhere is she from?â
Pei Sheng pondered, âShe should be from the south, I think she sounds like sheâs from Yang City.â
...
ââŚWhere does she work?â
âIn Mingzhu District I think, it seems like she goes wherever someone asks her to sing.â
âWhere does she live?â
âAhem, probably also in Mingzhu District.â
âWhatâs her name?â
Finally having an answer he knew, Pei Sheng instantly perked up, confidently saying, âAngela!â
Outside the office.
Los, holding some documents, paused as he passed by.
Inside the office.
Xu Shuo clicked his tongue, âSo, you donât know where she lives, donât know her exact job, donât know where sheâs from, donât even know her exact age, you know nothing, only a name?â
Pei Sheng: ââŚâ
Xu Shuoâs mouth curved into a smirk, suddenly leaning in close to him and saying, âYou couldnât possibly have actually failed to win her over, could you?â
Pei Sheng: ââŚâ
The smug smile on Pei Shengâs face had gradually morphed into embarrassment. Under Xu Shuoâs piercing gaze, he chuckled awkwardly, âHa, anyway, Iâll get her sooner or later.â
Knowing that this kid wasnât truly in love, Xu Shuo reluctantly let go of his concern.
He propped his chin and said leisurely, âLooks like youâve tried all the moves you could, still didnât win the girl over, so she probably isnât your target anymore.â
Pei Sheng immediately bristled, defiantly jutting out his neck, âHow could I not win her over! I have looks and money, sheâs definitely just playing hard to get. Thereâs no woman I canât charm!â
âYou never did charm the high school beauty queen,â Xu Shuo said.
âWhy bring up such old news!â
âA year ago, you had your sights on President Wangâs daughter, and you didnât charm her either.â
Xu Shuo paused suddenly at this point.
Speaking of President Wangâs daughter, although she was beautiful, she was actually quite old, but because she was a street dance instructor, she appeared very lively.
Then, because President Wang was planning to acquire their game, he had taken Pei Sheng with him on business, and they just happened to meet that girl.
After returning, he heard Pei Sheng launched into passionate pursuit, but alas, he failed to charm her.
Xu Shuo suddenly looked at Pei Sheng with a mischievous gleam in his eye, saying, âYour taste, it wouldnât happen to be for women older than yourself, would it?â
Pei Sheng immediately got flustered, âDonât spread rumors about me!â
Xu Shuo: âOhââ
There truly was no one Pei Sheng wanted to date at the moment; it was only when he really fancied a girl that he would come to them to boast.
It seems that what he boasted about, were always older sisters, though.
Seeing his boasting turned upside down by Xu Shuo, Pei Sheng left the office in a huff.
Then, just as he stepped out, he nearly bumped into Los who had been eavesdropping outside.
âWhat are you doing here?â
Since Los was standing quite far away, Pei Sheng didnât connect him to eavesdropping; he was just puzzled why he would leave his workstation for no reason.
Los handed him the documents he carried, âIâm here to show you some documents.â
âOh, oh, oh.â
Pei Sheng took the documents, but didnât look at them right away, just waved his hand for Los to go back, and then turned around to find Li Ziwen in the technical department to continue boasting.
A quarter of an hour later.
Pei Sheng ran out of the technical department, frustrated and defeated.
Then he entered the programming department.
This time he came out looking fresh and cheerful, indeed not all brothers are little tricksters.
âŚ
Los sat at his workstation, glanced at his boss prancing around excitedly everywhere, then retracted his gaze and looked towards Luofu sitting opposite him.
Luofu, sensing his gaze, peeped over.
The two communicated telepathically.
Los: [Did you set him up?]
Luofu blinked innocently, [No, you were here too, youâd definitely notice if Iâd done anything, and Iâve also reined in my own characteristics very well.]
Los nodded as if deep in thought.
Then he asked, âHas Angela been looking for you recently?â
Luofu replied, âYeah.â
Los was taken aback, âWhen did this happen, and what did she want with you? Why didnât you tell me?â
Luofu tilted her head, âShe asked me out for hotpot the day before yesterday. We chatted about what Iâve been up to recently, and then she told me not to tell you she had been back.â
Los: ââŚâ
So, if he hadnât asked, she would have never mentioned it?
Los pushed his glasses up, âDo you know where Angela is staying now?â
Luofu shook her head, âI donât know, she said I would tell you, so she didnât tell me anything.â
Los: ââŚâ
The conversation ended.
Rather than trying to get any useful information about Angela from his fence-sitter sister, he might as well follow his own boss.
Los didnât believe Angelaâs sudden contact with Pei Sheng was coincidental. She must have heard some information about the studio from Luofu and decided to get involved.
If she got involved, the worst that could happen might be the studio going bankruptâŚ
Of course, his boss didnât seem to be of much use around the studio, so if Angela started from Pei Shengâs side, there was a high chance the studio could survive.
After all, Pei Sheng was only in charge of spending money, not managing it.
But Angelaâs real purpose for butting in was probably Xu Shuo.
Thinking of this, Los uneasily asked, âYou didnât tell her about that matter, did you?â
Luofu immediately replied seriously, âNo!â
Because she knew that if she exposed the real reason Los was in this world, she might be locked up in the time-space rift by her brother the very next second.
Loving fun is one thing, but keeping to boundaries is another.
Angela, who often caused trouble, received one of the harshest punishmentsâthousands of years of confinement, and it was only when the Abyss outside the world began to stir that she was finally released to add to her strength.
This world seemed very important to Los, and Luofu hoped this older sister would understand boundaries and wouldnât go too far.
Otherwise, she was definitely going to be locked up in a dark room.
But how to put it, Angelaâs nature was just like that; her personality made it impossible for her to stop.
Well, she had warned her.
So it was not her problem anymore.
Luofu ate some snacks and continued typing her code.
âŚ
The next day.
Pei Sheng, for once, took a sudden leave of absence for something trivial, which was a surprise date with a beautiful older sister.
âIs it a date, or are you just going out to pay for her?â Xu Shuo said over the phone.
âSheâs different from those cheap, flashy women. I canât even ask her out for a drink, she hasnât let me pay yet,â Pei Sheng said smugly.
âWhatâs she doing asking you out so early in the morning? Leave request denied, get your ass to work right now,â Xu Shuo declared.
âI already told you itâs a date! You canât do this, I plan to win this woman over!â Pei Sheng howled as he drove.
He was supposed to go to the office, but midway, he received an invitation from Angela to go shopping, so he made an emergency U-turn home, not only switching to a luxury car but also going to a nearby club to get a makeover and dress up.
Then he called to take a leave of absence.
Strike first and play it by ear! He had made up his mind about this date!
At the studio.
Xu Shuo listened to Pei Shengâs wailing requests on the phone and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Pei Sheng normally wasnât like this. Although he liked to flirt with beautiful women, he was never so passive, not even when he was pursuing President Wangâs daughter.
Xu Shuo was genuinely curious about what kind of beauty was on the other end.
Was she like Jenny?
âYouâve got to at least tell me where youâre going to hang out. Iâm starting to think youâve been bewitched. Plus, your daily attendance records are visible to your brother,â said Xu Shuo, flipping through files on his desk.
âDamn it! I knew you and Pei Hong were up to no good, leaking my whereabouts!â Pei Sheng exclaimed in shock, putting aside thoughts of the pretty sister and indignantly accused, âHow could you do this? Iâm going to sue you for privacy invasion!â
Xu Shuo laughed, âIf youâre going to sue, youâd be suing Pei Hong. Youâre scheduled to work today and you donât have any business trips, and youâve already been late for an hour. In another half an hour, your phone might be tracked.â
Pei Sheng: âDamn you freaks!â
ââŚâ
After Xu Shuo hung up the phone, he opened the chat interface on his computer and sent a reply to the other party saying, âGone on a date.â
