Chapter 279: Chapter 279: The Peppa Pig I Raised

After reading the document on the notebook, what shocked Wei Lai was not the content, but the timing of the plan.

He had been planning for a long time, yet she was unaware. As a partner for many years, Wei Lai felt a bit frustrated.

She asked with a firm tone and sincere attitude, "What do you need me to do?"

Cheng Qiaobei closed the notebook, "Not needed for now."

Wei Lai paused slightly, her lips moved but she still asked, "Is it because I’m not capable enough to be part of such an important plan?"

Switching perspectives might help understand Wei Lai’s feelings, Cheng Qiaobei said earnestly,

"Since you know the content, you should understand one thing, this is a life-and-death game of chess. If I send my trusted people to take the first move at the start, what do you think will happen?"

The result would definitely be failure!

Wei Lai realized, nodding, "...Got it."

Cheng Qiaobei said, "It’s been a hard day today, go home and rest early."

Wei Lai left with her tray, and as she reached the door, she suddenly turned back, "Cheng."

She rarely called him that, and Cheng Qiaobei looked up, hearing Wei Lai passionately say, "A soldier dies for someone who understands them."

"!" Cheng Qiaobei’s mouth twitched, "Watch fewer dramas, there aren’t that many life-and-death matters."

Wei Lai raised her chin and snorted, then opened the door and walked out.

"Heh..." Cheng Qiaobei smiled helplessly, tidied up the desk, and went to rest in his room.

Just as he was about to shower, a WeChat message from Chen Ningxi came through.

A few days ago, Cheng Qiaobei had changed her remark to — My Pet Peppa.

My Pet Peppa: What are you doing?

north: About to take a shower.

My Pet Peppa: Can I watch?

north: The following program is a paid channel.

north: Channel 1 costs $10, with a strip-tease.

north: Channel 2 costs $30, full body shot (angles can be changed as per command).

north: Channel 3 costs $100, live bathing show, original lines, family-friendly performance, offering you an immersive sensory experience.

north: Please enter the channel number and pay.

The phone screen showed a laughing face of Chen Ningxi, who thought: So many shows every day.

Chen Ningxi typed: One.

Cheng Qiaobei saw the transfer of ten dollars and accepted it decisively, setting the phone on the sink to start a video.

Chen Ningxi quickly received a video, clicked to open it, and indeed saw Cheng Qiaobei undressing, but only taking off his suit jacket.

"..." This man was really good at exploiting loopholes!

My Pet Peppa: You didn’t say $10 was for one piece.

Cheng Qiaobei leaned against the counter, a deep smile playing at the corners of his eyes.

north: The final interpretation of this agreement rests with Mr. Cheng Qiaobei.

My Pet Peppa: Okay, okay, you’re the marketing expert.

A transfer of a hundred dollars popped up on the screen.

My Pet Peppa: Go~on~

The video Chen Ningxi received showed him removing cufflinks from a shirt, necklace, tie, access card, business card, watch, belt, a pack of tissues, shirt, and shoes.

Chen Ningxi knew it wouldn’t be that simple.

My Pet Peppa: I! Am! Getting! Angry!

Cheng Qiaobei laughed.

north: Reminder, Channel 3 is live.

My Pet Peppa: No lying to me.

north: I don’t lie to kids.

My Pet Peppa: Liar is a dog.

north: Childish.

My Pet Peppa: Oh, so you plan to lie to me?

north: Of course not. What about the trust between people?

My Pet Peppa: It crumbled the moment you accepted my $110.

north: Isn’t it worth it? Who else can see me strip for $110?

My Pet Peppa: Correction, only to your shirt. I could see shirtless men at the beach for free, yet I paid, such a loss.

north: You can continue to pay for Channel 3, and I’ll throw in some bonus shows.

Chen Ningxi sent a screenshot circled around a client labeled National Anti-Fraud Center.

"Hahaha..." Cheng Qiaobei chuckled, his shoulders trembling slightly, his relaxed back showing in the bathroom mirror behind, beautiful muscle lines balanced and powerful.

Chen Ningxi saw it was getting late and advised him, "Rest early, good night."

Cheng Qiaobei checked the time, not teasing her further, knowing Chen Ningxi’s work intensity was also high lately.

north: Another two or three days of recording and it’ll be over.

My Pet Peppa: Okay.

Okay?

No surprise emoji?

Before going to sleep, Chen Ningxi received a video from Cheng Qiaobei. Opening it, it was a girlfriend’s view lullaby video.

Cheng Qiaobei bent down towards the phone screen, kissed it, and in a husky voice said, "Good night, wife."

Chen Ningxi laughed at the video, "Who’s childish now!"

...

In the next three days, the program’s recording went smoothly. Thinking it would end perfectly, an incident broke out on the last day.

Ye Huan, who had been taken away by the police, reappeared in the hotel. Cheng Qiaobei had just solved a guest issue in the lobby, and upon turning, saw Ye Huan’s familiar face. His gaze slightly focused, admiring the young woman’s strong nerves for daring to return.

The two met in the center of the lobby, with her little friends following Ye Huan. She had a fearless expression, showing her room card to Cheng Qiaobei, and said,

"Manager Cheng, didn’t expect me to come back, did you?"

"..." It’s not that he didn’t expect it, he had thought about this person.

But now Ye Huan held the Jade Jiali hotel room card, which means she’s a guest. Guests didn’t do anything out of line, and he had no right to kick her out.

Cheng Qiaobei maintained hotel courtesy, "Miss Ye, if you need anything, you can call the front desk. Goodbye."

Ye Huan, with calculating eyes, smirked, "Who do I complain to?"

Cheng Qiaobei said, "The complaint number is on the bulletin board on the wall."

Ye Huan glanced back, "As a manager, don’t you accept complaints?"

Cheng Qiaobei had just handled a guest complaint, she must have seen it.

But seeing Ye Huan’s attitude, clearly here to cause trouble, it’s better for him to avoid it.

"The previous one was a male guest, that’s why I handled it. For your complaint, you can find Manager Wei."

Ye Huan said, "I just want to talk to you."

Cheng Qiaobei gave a public relations smile, "Sometimes it’s inconvenient for me to handle female guests’ issues. I’ll get Manager Wei for you right away."

Before Ye Huan could refuse, Cheng Qiaobei was already radioing for assistance.

"Manager Wei, Manager Wei, come to the lobby for guest complaints."

Wei Lai’s voice came through the radio, "Received, Chairman Cheng."

Cheng Qiaobei gestured for them to sit in the lounge area and wait, "Please wait a moment, Manager Wei will be here soon."

He turned to leave but was stopped by Ye Huan. "I said, no need for her, I want you."

Cheng Qiaobei lowered his eyes, though smiling, the smile didn’t reach his eyes, "What do you want from me?"

Ye Huan said, "Because of you, I entered the police station for the first time, what do you say to that?"

Cheng Qiaobei lowered his brow, "Because of me? Isn’t it because of yourself?"

Ye Huan, recalling being taken away by the police, with friends snapping photos, felt irritable.

"Don’t play innocent, it was because of you," Ye Huan said angrily.
