MTL - After Playing the Fool and Marrying the Blind Villain [Transmigration]-Chapter 32
It's Friday in a blink of an eye.
The elevator door opened in response, and Bo Yueming, dressed in formal attire, walked out, holding a walking stick in his hand, and Pei Yi followed him obediently.
Under the leadership of assistant Lin Zhong, the two walked slowly to the main entrance of the floor of G.M Company.
The new receptionist was surprised when he saw Bo Yueming's "blind man" attire, and didn't realize Bo Yueming's real identity for a while.
Until Assistant Yan Cen hurried out, he said respectfully, "Mr. Bo."
Her eyes fell on the familiar assistant Lin Zhong, and then on the completely unfamiliar face of Pei Yi——
The person in front of him has a cute and innocent face, and the casual clothes on his body are famous brands designed by a small crowd, so he doesn't look like a related person in the workplace.
The assistant was a little surprised, and subconsciously asked Lin Zhong, who had the same status, "Zhu Lin, who is this?"
As soon as the words fell, Bo Yueming took the initiative to accept the words, "He is my...family member."
The word "family" comes from a special place.
Not only the two assistants, but even Pei Yi himself was taken aback for a moment, but after he thought about it, this word is indeed more appropriate than 'marriage partner' and 'partner'.
Pei Yi seemed to want to prove her identity, so she obediently called out "Second Brother".
The assistant has sharp eyesight. Although he was surprised, he didn't ask any more questions.
Bo Yueming changed the subject, "Where's Yan Cen? Are you here?"
The assistant replied, "I just called to inquire. Mr. Yan is already in the underground parking lot, and he will be here soon."
Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive.
The elevator door opened again, and Yan Cen took the lead to step out of it. Besides, there were two other people in the elevator room——
It was Li Yu'an who came to participate in the investment campaign, and an unfamiliar short-haired woman.
Pei Yi stared slightly, observing everything secretly.
The changes between Yan Cen and the previous two meetings were not great, Junyi still had the familiar gold frame on his face, but compared to the previous two occasions, today he has a "work identity" more The calm aura of the superior.
Standing obliquely behind, Li Yu'an put on a new suit with gray stripes on a blue background for today's official election. He also seemed to have taken care of his hairstyle specially. The wolf's tail was cut slightly shorter, and the upper part The little one is round and warped—
With his pretendingly indifferent eyebrows and eyes, there is a faint sense of lovely contrast.
As for the short-haired woman next to Li Yuan, she was dressed even more simply, with a plain white T and jeans, and a black bag on one shoulder.
She seems to have accidentally followed the wrong person and strayed into this field, but she is so calm that she does not have stage fright.
Pei Yi stared at her for a while, then curled her lips indistinctly.
"Hello, Mr. Yan."
Yan Cen's assistant was the first to react, and at the same time recognized Li Yu'an in the campaign materials, "And Mr. Li, did you come here together?"
"No, it's not."
Li Yu Anka paused for a moment, and his voice was slightly tense, "I happened to meet Mr. Yan in the elevator."
"Well, I came up from the underground parking lot, and when the elevator stopped on the first floor, I met Mr. Li and..." Yan Cen glanced sideways at the relatively unfamiliar woman, and asked politely.
"Central of the building."
The woman met his gaze, and introduced herself calmly and generously, "I'm here with Mr. Li, and I can be regarded as one of the staff members who participated in the bidding for "The Last Mist."
Li Yu'an was silent for two seconds, "Yes."
He just picked up Lou Yang at the airport an hour ago. As for the complicated relationship, it is not easy to explain it for the time being.
Yan Cen looked at Pei Yi who was following, and rarely teased, "Mr. Bo, did you really bring the 'family' to the company? Violating the company's regulations, you will be fined."
"random."
Bo Yueming answered lightly, "I'll watch him, he won't cause trouble."
Yan Cen nodded slightly, and asked his assistant, "Start at two o'clock?"
"Yes, there is still half an hour, and another group of investment bidders has not arrived yet." The assistant truthfully reported the current situation and asked, "Do you need me to call to confirm their situation?"
Bo Yueming resolutely said, "No need. If you don't show up at the end, it will be regarded as an automatic waiver. Our G.M never asks for cooperation from the project party."
Yan Cen agreed.
As soon as the voice fell, the elevator door opened three times.
The people from You Ming's studio arrived. Ke Ming looked at the group of people gathered at the entrance of the front desk, and after a brief surprise, he showed a polite smile, "Coincidentally, why are they all gathered here?"
Ke Ming identified Yan Cen's identity, and took the initiative to greet him, "Mr. Yan, I am Ke Ming, the head of You Ming's studio, and I have admired you for a long time."
Yan Cen pushed his glasses lightly, and responded politely, "Mr. Ke."
Compared with Li Yu'an's indifference and formality, Ke Ming obviously knows how to make friends with others. He took the initiative to introduce, "Mr. Yan, these two are the program technical director of our "Alien Beast" project, Xiang Nansheng."
"And project operations, Pei Huan."
When the name of the latter person was mentioned, except for Bo Yueming who was "pretending to be blind", everyone looked towards the rear in unison.
"..."
Pei Huan, who was blocked by Xiang Nansheng, came up. When he saw Bo Yueming and Pei Yi standing in front, the smile on his face froze slightly, but soon returned to normal.
Yan Cen glanced at Bo Yueming and Pei Yi next to him, and asked in surprise, "Pei Huan? Are you related to the project of You Ming's studio? Why didn't it be stated in the prior documents?"
"Mr. Yan, you don't know that Pei Huan is a newcomer, but I have been lobbying him since the beginning of the project, and I finally managed to persuade him two days ago."
Pei Huan heard the false statement on Ke Mingming's face, smiled and did not refute.
In fact, he has no substantive relationship with the "Alien Beast" project, and the so-called "project operation" is just a temporary name.
Pei Huan and Ke Ming met at the "excellent student exchange meeting" organized during college. Although they came from different schools, they became friends over time because of the same hobbies and interests.
A week ago, Ke Ming contacted Pei Huan suddenly, and put the project "Alien Beast" in front of his eyes, and said—
If Pei Huan is interested in this project, he can transfer part of his personal equity to the other party. Although the initial investment takes a long time, once the follow-up game is successfully released, he will definitely earn a lot of money back.
For the time being, Pei Ruzhang's real power is still in the hands of Pei Ruzhang. In addition, the cooperation with Bo's project failed. Pei Huan originally planned to start a sideline investment, and Ke Ming's invitation was very warm.
After some consideration, Pei Huan came up with an idea.
Ke Ming invited him to participate in today's competition as a way to find out more about their project, but he didn't expect to meet so many acquaintances here.
Ke Ming's voice continued, "Mr. Yan, Pei Huan and I met in college. The original script of "Alien Beast", including the biological prototype, was also discussed after drinking."
When fabricating this layer of lies, Ke Ming's pupils flickered for a short time.
It's just that this calculation couldn't escape the eyes of Bo Yueming and Pei Yi, the former was secretly tainted with suspicion, while the latter saw through everything directly -
Ke Ming must have learned about the relationship between Pei Huan and Yan Cen during college, so he did this trick on purpose.
After all, isn't it just that Yan Cen is secretly counting on the face of the "students from the same school" so that they can favor them and give them special preferential treatment in the competition between the two parties?
Pei Huan also realized the true meaning of Ke Ming's invitation to join him, but he didn't feel bad about being "used" at all.
To be honest, Yan Cen was indeed the only person he had a crush on during college, but there were few opportunities to meet him at school.
After graduating for so long, the two can still meet again. If he can use this opportunity to gain impression points in front of each other and increase some relationship communication, then he will be extremely happy.
"Senior, that's not right..." Pei Huan paused slightly, then changed his words with a smile, "It's Mr. Yan, looking forward to the next communication with your company."
"..."
comminicate?
Is the result of this competition finalized?
Li Yu'an, who was silent the whole time, heard this call, and involuntarily took half a step back.
Pei Yi noticed the other party's retreat, and her disdain for Pei Huan and Ke Ming rose to another level.
He was thinking about how to "pretend to be stupid" to frustrate the other party's inexplicable confidence and vigor, but Bo Yueming who was at the side spoke in a low voice first—
"G.M has always valued strength. As for things other than work, there is no need to communicate more."
In a word, I almost stabbed those hidden thoughts to the bright side.
Pei Yi suppressed her smile for a moment, and raised her eyes to look at Bao Yueming, who was much taller than her. The more she looked, the more handsome she felt, and she wished she could poke her thumb directly on his forehead.
that is.
Competition in the game only depends on hard power, why are you thinking of crooked ways!
The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Ke Ming looked at Bo Yueming who was "dressed up as a blind man", with a hint of displeasure in his heart, "Excuse me, sir?"
Yan Cen introduced the identity of his friend, "President Bo is my partner, the highest-level shareholder of G.M, and one of the decision makers for today's investment."
"..."
"..."
As soon as the words fell, the astonishment of Ke Ming and Pei Huan almost floated directly on their faces.
The displeasure in Ke Ming's heart suddenly dissipated, and he suddenly regretted the contempt in the question just now. When he was looking for the company's structure, why didn't he know that there was a person like Bo Yueming?
Fortunately, I was polite when I spoke just now, otherwise I would be offended terribly!
Pei Huan tried his best to stabilize his complexion, but suddenly there was an indescribable panic in his heart.
Last time, he and Bo Guancheng tried to send Pei Yi to Sun Yelong's bed in exchange for greater cooperation. As a result, they were first severely dismantled and criticized by Qin Yishun, and then they suffered a huge loss after the cooperation failed.
If Bo Yueming knew what he was doing, would he still give him fair attention in this bidding?
What about Yan Cen?
Will she also know what he did to Pei Yi? Will your perception of him change?
In the next second, Yan Cen calmly said, "Shen Na, please go to the lounge for the people in charge of both parties. We will start on time in the conference room at two o'clock."
After finishing speaking, he patted his friend on the shoulder lightly, "Yue Ming, let's go."
Bo Yueming nodded slightly, and accurately held Pei Yi's wrist under the cover of the guide sunglasses to prevent the kitten beside him from running around. "Let's go."
Pei Yi originally wanted to stay and see Li Yu'an's situation, but immediately thought of agreeing to Bo Yueming's request, so she had to honestly let him lead her away. A group of people left first.
Pei Huan looked at Yan Cen's leaving figure, and then at Pei Yi who was always by Bo Yueming's side on such occasions, his bright smile gradually stiffened, and finally disappeared.
…
Fairly bright and spacious lounge.
The five people on both sides of the bid chose to sit on one side, and Li Yu'an tried hard to break free from the delicate and complicated emotions.
He took out the documents and materials he had sorted out from his backpack, and planned to take advantage of the last time to sort out the speech context and check for omissions.
Lou Yang, who was sitting next to him, asked in a low voice, "Mr. Li, do you have any backup files? Show me."
"Sister Yang, you are older than me, you can just call by your name, you don't need to be bound by that kind of address."
While talking calmly, Li Yu'an took out the document belonging to Lou Yang, and clicked on a line of words on it, "Will asked me to prepare it for you."
——The characters of "The Last Mist 1.0" are set in the image of NPC.
Lou Yang looked at this line of title text and this thick stack of text settings, and a happy smile flashed in his eyes, "The others didn't come, so it's very clear what I want to see the most?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a faint laughter from diagonally, "Mr. Li, I haven't seen you for a few days. Why is there an extra assistant by your side? Is this lady your partner?"
Li Yu'an's fingertips tightened as he held the information, his face was not very good-looking.
Lou Yang heard the unkind "greeting" and raised his eyes to look at Ke Ming in reverse, "I'm just a staff member who came to observe, so I don't need Mr. Lao Ke to bother."
"Too."
Ke Ming looked Lou Yang from head to toe.
Ordinary clothes and unremarkable attire, how can he look like a capable person in the workplace? Find such a trash to listen to? Isn't this just putting the six big words "Liming Company can't do it" on the table?
Of course, Bo Yueming, one of the decision makers, is blind.
They really don't need to spend time on outfits, and they really can only speak by strength.
Ke Ming secretly slandered, with contempt still in his eyes, "Mr. Li, why don't you think about what I said last time? It's better to abstain now than lose embarrassingly in the end."
Yu Gong, they have the foundation, strength, technology, and development momentum; Yu private, Pei Huan and Yan Cen, the executive director of G.M., are still college brothers.
Ke Ming doesn't know the relationship between Pei Huan, Bo Yueming, and Pei Yi for the time being, but he is still sure to win and full of confidence.
Li Yu'an looked at Ke Ming who looked like a "winner", and from the corner of his eye he saw Pei Huan's figure again, feeling an indescribable uneasiness in his heart.
He didn't want to show timidity in front of the other party, and pretended to be cold and arrogant, "Mr. Ke, take care of yourself."
Ke Ming burst into two smug smiles, "Mr. Li, your stubborn temper really needs to be changed."
Li Yu'an ignored him, glanced at the time on the phone, and revealed in a low voice, "Sister Yang, I'll go out for a breather."
Lou Yang nodded, and comforted him in a very low voice, "Don't lose your confidence because of the villain, have you forgotten the purpose of my presence here?"
Of course Li Yu'an remembered, his eyes flickered slightly, "Yes."
…
Inside the executive director's office.
In addition to Bo Yueming and Yan Cen, there is also Song Ci who has just returned to China. The three of them will jointly complete the decision to choose one of the two game projects—
Whether it is in the overseas market or in the Chinese market, it is the first time for G.M to contact and invest in the game industry, so it will be more cautious in the choice.
Pei Yi listened to their analysis and discussion on the first four rounds of investment projects, wanted to interrupt but couldn't speak, so bored, he had no choice but to cast his eyes on the glass door with anti-peeping protection.
Not long after, he saw a person walking out of the lounge not far away, it was Li Yu'an.
Pei Yi thought of Li Yu'an's silent reaction when he was at the front desk just now, and was still a little worried.
Most of the project of "The Last Mist" relied on Li Yu'an to rush forward alone. The more critical the moment, the more he should find a way to stabilize the other party's mind.
Pei Yi lowered her eyes and hesitated for two seconds, then turned her head and gently pulled the corner of Bao Yueming's clothes twice, "Second brother."
Bo Yueming kept paying attention to Pei Yi from the corner of his eye hidden under the lens, and knew something was wrong when he heard him pulling, "Huh?"
"I, I'm going to the bathroom."
Pei Yi quickly glanced at the "outsider" next to her, she spoke softly, and a blush of embarrassment flashed across her cheeks.
People in their twenties still need to report when they go out to use the bathroom!
It is true to make excuses to fool people, but it is also true to be shy this time!
Bo Yueming didn't tell if he saw through it, but still deliberately staggered his gaze, "Okay, let the forest people outside take you there."
He wanted to follow it himself, to see what "bad things" this kitten was going to do behind his back, but it was a bit exaggerated for a dignified company executive to accompany him to the bathroom.
Before coming, Lin Zhong had already received a hint—
Where he can't see, he has to help "supervise" Pei Yi's every move.
Pei Yi didn't know about this, and after getting Bo Yueming's consent with a blushing face, she slipped out with a cute face.
less than a minute.
Under Lin Zhong's thoughtful guidance, Pei Yi turned into the men's bathroom alone, and as expected, she ran into Li Yu'an standing silently at the outside sink.
There was a lot of water on Li Yu'an's face, he guessed that he had just washed his face not long ago, the water glistened between his brows, magnifying his exposed fragility and anxiety.
Seeing Pei Yi through the mirror, he quickly pulled out a tissue beside him and wiped his face, trying to restore that cold and tugged outward appearance, "Young Master Pei, I didn't expect to meet you here today?"
Pei Yi sees through but doesn't tell.
He knew that Li Yu'an still needed time to "organize himself" and would not leave here for a while, so he walked slowly into the inner compartment.
The small door of the compartment was lightly locked.
Li Yu'an let out a sigh of relief when he heard the sound.
He took out the cigarette case he carried with him from his pocket, took out one, put it on the tip of his nose, rubbed it, and inhaled lightly, trying to calm down his inner restlessness one by one.
Footsteps from the outside sounded again, and another tall figure walked in.
Li Yu'an subconsciously opened his eyes and turned around, met Yan Cen's eyes unexpectedly, "Yan, Mr. Yan."
"Little Boss Li."
Yan Cen's gaze stayed on the cigarette for a moment.
Li Yu'an noticed his gaze, and subconsciously held the cigarette in his palm, "I... I know you can't smoke indoors, so I just picked it up and smelled it."
After speaking, he felt that his attitude was stupid again, and fell silent.
"fine."
Yan Cen raised his right hand, "I got some ink on my hand, let me wash my hands."
He walked to the sink and rinsed his hands slowly.
Li Yu'an looked at Yan Cen, who was just a short distance away, from the corner of his eye. He didn't want to leave or stay for a while.
"Mr. Li, are you nervous or not confident?"
"ah?"
Yan Cen dipped some hand sanitizer on his hand, rubbed it, and said proactively, "I have read the basic information of the game Liming and the game "The Last Mist". In fact, your plot setting is very good, and the structure is very complete. .”
"G.M has always valued the strength of its partners, and all the 'back door' and 'humanity' will not work here."
Li Yu'an was stunned, "I..."
"I thought you were worried that You Ming would take advantage of Pei Huan's relationship with my college seniors to pull apart."
Yan Cen smiled lightly at him through the reflection in the mirror, "If that's the case, we should also be regarded as brothers directly in the university?"
"..."
Li Yu'an tightly held the cigarette in his palm, not knowing how to answer.
Is it a senior brother?
The two had little extra contact in college.
Yan Cen wiped his hands clean, and motioned to him sideways, "Spread your hands."
"What?"
Li Yu'an took a slow beat, his body awareness was greater than his rationality, and he spread his right hand uncertainly.
"You are right. G.M has a rule that smoking is not allowed in the company. So I took it away on behalf of the company."
Yan Cen smoked the crumpled cigarette, and put a toffee in his palm instead, "Your lips look a bit pale, if it's hypoglycemia, it will be better if you have one."
"Pay attention to the time, you can't be late for bidding."
After finishing speaking, Yan Cen left the bathroom neatly.
The footsteps gradually faded away.
Li Yu'an looked at the toffee in his palm, and couldn't recover for a while.
Until there was a noise in the compartment, Pei Yi, who had heard the whole process in secret, came out from inside.
He re-observed Li Yu'an's expression, and suddenly felt that he didn't need to rack his brains to persuade him, so he only uttered a meaningful sound——
"Oh~"
This sudden sound made Li Yu'an feel uncomfortable for a moment, "Pei, young master Pei, what do you think I am doing?"
In order to completely suppress Li Yu'an's anxiety that he might make a comeback, Pei Yi deliberately reached out to tease him, "Sugar, give it to me, kid."
"..."
Li Yu'an's ears gradually turned red.
This was the last time he "rebuked" Pei Yi in the coffee shop, but the other party used it to "laugh" at him.
Li Yu'an quickly put the toffee into his suit pocket, and pretended to be disgusted, "What's the point of a candy? If you want it, ask your Boss to buy it for you."
Pei Yi groaned, and took out a bag of small bread from his pocket and handed it to the other party, which he just bought at the company's snack bar.
Others may not be clear, but Pei Yi, who is Will, knows very well—
Li Yu'an was re-examining all the documents and materials early in the morning, and took time to pick up Lou Yang at noon. He thought he had no time to eat, otherwise his lips would not have faded like this.
"Here, I'm not hungry."
"..."
Li Yu'an stared at the bun delivered to him, and his affection for Pei Yi rose rapidly.
He accepted the kindness slowly, coughed unnaturally, and changed his words, "How about it, if I succeed in bidding today, how about treating you to cake?"
How can I say that the last time in the coffee shop, the other party listened quietly to his distress, and even bought him a glass of juice and a piece of cake when he was dying.
Li Yu'an has a good impression of Pei Yi, and he doesn't want to owe him such a small favor.
Pei Yi raised her outstretched palms, and with her love for the cake and this ally, she smiled genuinely, "I wish you success."
Right now, Li Yu'an's heart is no longer anxious, knowing that the other party is a "little fool", he is still willing to treat him as a friend.
He stretched out his hand to shake it back, and smiled rarely, "It's a deal, I'll lend you a good word."
…
In the blink of an eye it was two o'clock.
Pei Yi obediently followed Bo Yueming to the exclusive conference room and sat down.
Relevant personnel came in one after another, basically bringing notebooks and materials.
Until the assistant Lin Zhong opened the door and entered the room, he walked up to Pei Yi with three exquisite food bags, "Mr., look! Juice, pudding, and egg tart—"
As Lin Zhong spoke, he placed the desserts in front of Pei Yi one by one like treasures, and he didn't forget to bring a sentence at the end.
"President Bo asked me to buy it for you."
"..."
Pei Yi looked at the row of desserts she liked in front of her, and at the same time, she was ready to move and felt unbelievable—
Such a serious occasion?
Made a bunch of things for him to eat?
Is this appropriate? This is not appropriate!
While thinking about it, Pei Yi looked at Bo Yueming who was beside him, and blinked in confusion, "Second brother?"
Bo Yueming took his cute look into his eyes, and pretended to be serious, "Eat quietly later, don't make trouble when you shouldn't talk."
"..."
Fine.
After a long time, it turned out that he was afraid that his "little fool" would talk nonsense, so he stuffed his mouth with sweets in advance.
Pei Yi accepted this instruction, and deliberately reacted for a while before acting obediently, "Oh."
Bo Yueming motioned in a low voice, "Stretch out your hand."
"ah?"
Bo Yueming repeated, "Stretch out your hand."
Pei Yi didn't understand, so he looked at the people who were gradually arriving, and slowly spread his hands under the cover of the table.
Bo Yueming stretched out his clenched right hand, pretending that he couldn't find the position of his palm, "Come here yourself."
"..."
Pei Yi became more and more puzzled, and spread her palms to find Bo Yueming's fist, like a kitten probing with its claws, and lightly touched it with its fingertips.
Shua la la.
Seven or eight toffees fell into his palm all of a sudden, which was heavy.
"..."
Pei Yi was dumbfounded, she had no idea how Bo Yueming conjured up these candies.
Bo Yueming looked at Pei Yi's small head "with a question mark", and his eyes hidden under the glasses smiled a little more.
He seemed to be calm and closed his hands, and explained in a low voice, "Put it away, if you want to eat in the future, don't ask for it from others."
ah?
Didn't he say he wanted candy?
Pei Yi forgot her casual teasing in the bathroom for a moment, but she still honestly put these toffees in her pocket, the little toffees she got for free, don't want them for nothing.
Lin Zhong, who was sitting in the assistant's position at the back, took this scene into his eyes and shook his head silently—
He who was "supervising" outside the bathroom just now, heard that Pei Yi's request for toffee from Li Yu'an failed, so he secretly reported the matter to Bo Yueming when he returned.
The results of it?
After Mr. Bo heard about this, he put Mr. Yan on the water bar and took away all the toffee used for coffee!
Um! Not one left!
