After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 490: Chapter 493: A Low Person Deals with a Low Person【1】

That evening, Leng Zimo came back very late, but fortunately, he had taken care of all matters.

Early the next morning, the two took a private jet and flew directly back to Beijing.

After arriving in Beijing, Leng Zimo first took Luo Xiaoqian back to World City and then immediately rushed to Emperor View.

The contract had been signed, and he needed to immediately allocate funds to Qingdao. To maximize the benefits of this plan, he also had to assemble a special team to be in charge. There was still a lot of work to be done at Emperor View, so naturally, he didn’t have much time to spend with her.

After seeing him off, Luo Xiaoqian immediately dragged his suitcase into the living room and began to unpack.

She sorted his clothes, putting those that could be washed herself into the washing machine and those requiring dry cleaning into a paper bag. Then, she took out the photo album she’d placed in his suitcase.

This album was brought back from Qingdao and contained some cherished photos of her from childhood to adulthood.

She placed the album on the coffee table and took the paper bag downstairs to the dry cleaner with the clothes that needed professional washing. After returning, she immediately went to the laundry room downstairs and started the washing machine to clean his other clothes.

As the washing machine began to work, Luo Xiaoqian returned to the living room, opened the album, and looked at the childhood photos.

When she reached the page where her mother was holding her, she stood up, took down the precious photo with her father from above the TV cabinet, and placed it alongside the photo where her mother was embracing her.

”Dad, Mom... Now, the three of us can be together.”

...

...

Emperor View.

After finishing her work, Xu Pei took out her new phone from her bag, turned it on, and dialed Lu Hao’s number.

”Three days have passed, and it seems I haven’t seen any results.”

”Miss Xu Pei, haste won’t get you hot tofu,” Lu Hao said calmly over the phone, ”And it’s not like I haven’t done anything. Do you know what Leng Zimo has been up to these past few days?”

”What could he be doing besides being on a business trip?” Xu Pei said.

”Business trip?” Lu Hao laughed, ”Does going to Qingdao’s vegetable market to buy groceries with Luo Xiaoqian count as a business trip?”

”What did you say?” Xu Pei’s tone turned cold.

”Your President Leng has been with Luo Xiaoqian these past few days. They’ve had a pleasant time in Qingdao, not only going to the vegetable market but also visiting Luo Xiaoqian’s mother’s grave. To my knowledge, he even bought back the old house that Luo Xiaoqian sold, and it’s not just a single room, it’s a whole plot of land. I guess it’s an investment of tens of millions at least. He’s really deeply devoted. From the looks of it, I guess they’re ready to get married, aren’t they?”

”Damn it!” Xu Pei cursed under her breath, struggling to contain her anger, ”So what are you planning to do? Didn’t you say you had a way?”

Lu Hao sneered, ”Of course I have a way, since I know all this. But, Miss Xu Pei, credibility is key in business. I’m taking a huge risk doing this, and you’re unwilling to pay. I won’t do it for nothing!”

Xu Pei clenched her teeth, ”Tonight at eight, the same place we met last time.”

”Good!” Lu Hao chuckled on the other end of the line, ”Sister Xu Pei, don’t stand me up.”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Pei slammed her phone down on the table.

Leng Zimo was actually willing to spend tens of millions to buy land just to please Luo Xiaoqian. He was insane.

”Get married? Luo Xiaoqian, don’t you even think about it. I will not let someone like you ruin Zimo, ruin Emperor View!”
