After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 532: Chapter 536 The Difference Between Love and Not Love [1]

Xu Pei had not expected that Luo Xiaoqian would be the one to answer the call, and even less expected that she would be in such a state now.

On the phone, Luo Xiaoqian’s voice was very calm, calm as if nothing had happened.

How could that be?!

After what had happened, how could she possibly remain so calm?!

Xu Pei was stunned for a few seconds and did not respond, this reality was truly beyond her expectations.

”Is it Xiao Qian?” Xu Xia had already hurriedly set down her cup and stood up.

”Xiao Qian, wait a moment,” Xu Pei directly passed the phone to Xu Xia.

Right now, she needed to think things through properly.

Taking the phone, Xu Xia immediately burst out like popping beans, ”Xiao Qian, it’s Xu Xia, how are you? Did that bastard Leng Zimo bully you? Where are you? Tell me, I’ll come right over and teach that bastard Leng Zimo a lesson...”

”Xu Xia?” Luo Xiaoqian interrupted her between breaths, ”Aren’t you shooting a music video in South Korea? How come you’re with Sister Xu Pei?”

”Don’t worry about that, just tell me where you are right now, I’ll come over, and we can talk when we meet.”

”I’m at home... it’s World City, at Zimo’s place!”

”Alright, I’ll be right there.” Xu Xia hung up the phone without delay and handed it back to Xu Pei. ”Yu Tong, Brother Zhuo, I’m sorry to trouble you, but I must go!”

”Are you going to see Xiao Qian?” Xu Pei grabbed her arm.

”Yeah,” Xu Xia casually agreed, ready to leave.

”Let me take you there, I... I know where Zimo lives,” Xu Pei quickly made up an excuse.

”This...” Xu Xia hesitated, ”Don’t you still have work to do?”

”Zimo and Xiao Qian are both our good friends, and he is my supervisor and the principal singer I’m responsible for. Their matters are my work too, aren’t they?” Xu Pei said with a smile, looking towards Zhuo Yannan and Yu Tong, ”I have already reviewed the proposal you sent me, and I don’t see any problems. Just discuss the details a bit more, and we should be good. Xu Xia, let’s go!”

”Then I’ll have to trouble you!” Xu Xia politely thanked her, waved to Zhuo Yannan and Yu Tong, and walked out of Zhuo Yannan’s office together.

Zhuo Yannan and Yu Tong followed them out, watching the two head toward the elevator, with Yu Tong frowning slightly.

”Ya Nan, do you feel like something is off about her?”

”Are you talking about Director Xu?” Zhuo Yannan asked.

”Did you notice it too?” Yu Tong turned her face towards him.

”Maybe she is not feeling well. She didn’t seem to be in good shape,” Zhuo Yannan withdrew his gaze, ”Anyway, since everyone has approved the proposal and she has agreed to it too, let’s continue discussing the details.”

When the two returned to the meeting room, Xu Pei and Xu Xia had already reached the floor above.

As Xu Xia stepped out of the elevator with Xu Pei and saw her stop by a champagne-colored Porsche Cayenne, she patted the car with envy, ”I despise you rich, pretty girls; you’ve changed your car again in just a few days. What happened to your Maserati?”

”Oh, I didn’t feel like driving that one... It’s not that I didn’t want to drive it, it’s just... the roads in Beijing aren’t great, and an SUV is more convenient, so I switched to a new one,” Xu Pei opened the car door, ”Get in.”

Xu Xia didn’t pay much attention to it and promptly opened the door to sit in the passenger seat. Xu Pei started the car and took them both quickly toward World City, already starting to probe for information about that night’s incident in a roundabout way.
