Chapter 226 - 226 Blessing the Couple
226 Blessing the Couple
Pei Huai’s strange dreams had always been from a first-person perspective.
He had never seen what he looked like in his dreams.
However, when he saw this painting, he was almost certain that this was how he looked in his dreams.
It felt very real.
The moment he saw the painting, his heart ached.
His phone lit up.
He received a few birthday messages.
More than half of them came from his business partners.
And some from his family.
Among all the well wishes, he saw the one that Su Ji had just sent.
[ “Do you like the present?” ]
[ “I like it very much.” ]
Then, he took two pictures of the painting and posted it on his Wechat moments for the first time since he registered for an account.
[ “A birthday present from my girlfriend.” ]
In an instant, everyone in his contact list exploded.
In just a few minutes, there were 99+ likes and comments.
[ Pei Qingshen: “Aiya, Su Ji is so cute. Even her gift is so cute.” ]
[ Pei Xi: “That’s smy sister-in-law! Pei Huai finally posted for the first time!” ]
[ Bill: “Happy birthday!” ]
[ Pei Song: “People change when they are in love.” ]
There were also other CEOs reacting to the post.
[ “What’s going on? Is this really CEO Pei?” ]
[ “You have a girlfriend? Is it the one named Su Ji?” ]
[ “From the gifts, it can be seen that Ms. Su Ji is very affectionate.” ]
[ “The 30-carat diamond is in the process of being polished. We are waiting for good news.” ]
A few other people wished him “a happy marriage”.
At this moment, there was only one person who was staring at Pei Huai’s post with six black dots above his head.
That was Bian Tong!
He was the one who drew them at the Calligraphy Association the other day!
Did Ms. Su give his painting to Pei Huai as a birthday gift?
Should he tell him?
Of course not!

That night, Huang Huayu released an announcement on the official website of The Billion Stars.
There would be a mysterious guest in the next episode.
It immediately set off a heated discussion among the fans.
Some guessed that it was a new star while some guessed that it was a veteran actor or actress who had retired.
However, no one expected it to be CEO Pei.
After all, whenever they thought of him, their minds would be filled with the image of him sitting solemnly in the meeting room and issuing decisions.
It was hard to associate him with a guest actor in a series.
It would definitely be a peak of the viewership ratings for this episode!
Pei Huai had a two-hour video conference with the company’s top management in the morning.
A table full of senior executives in black suits was looking at the big screen with a serious expression.
Everyone kept their mouths still and gossiped in private.
“I heard that the boss posted late last night.”
“I really want to see it. Unfortunately, I don’t have anyone who’s friends with him on WeChat.”
“I don’t either. I heard it from someone else. I heard that Ms. Su celebrated his birthday with him.”
No wonder he is in such a good mood today. I forgot to bring the meeting materials. He didn’t even scold me just now and even told me not to do it again.
While the meeting was in progress, Pei Huai’s cell phone rang.
He glanced at it and picked it up.
“Could it be Ms. Su?”
“From his expression, it doesn’t seem like it.”
“What a pity. I really want to see what the boss looks like when he answers Ms. Su’s phone call.”
The call was from Han Junlei, who was asking if Pei Huai had time to shoot a scene in the morning.
Their filming location was very close to the airport, which was close to Pei Huai. However, he wanted to make sure he could make it.
Pei Huai glanced at the time. “Alright, I’ll be there in half an hour.”
The higher-ups looked at each other.
Just as they were feeling puzzled, they heard the CEO say, “send me the lines first. I’ll read them on the way.”
There were lines?
What was the boss doing?
Han Junlei responded and sent the message over very quickly.
Soon, a second call came.
This time, when Pei Huai picked up the phone, he only said “hello” in a low and soft voice.
The executives’ hearts instantly clenched!
“There’s no mistake! It’s definitely Ms. Su this time!”
“I didn’t know that he could have such a gentle voice?”
“I also want to fall in love, what should I do?”
It was Pei Huai’s birthday today, so Su Ji was very affectionate.
She was probably asking him when he would be coming to the set and if he wanted to have lunch with her.
From the moment Pei Huai picked up the phone to the end of the call, his voice was lowered by several decibels.
After hanging up the phone, Pei Huai faced the camera and instantly regained his composure.

At the airport, Bai Yueguang dragged her luggage and was about to leave when Nicha Sonpashan appeared, accompanied by a group of his men.
More than 20 men in black stood in two rows.
They all lowered their heads and nodded.
Nicha Sonpashan was a dangerous person, but the fact that he was attracted to Bai Yueguang’s unique aura was very much in line with his character.
In this segment, Pei Huai’s performance once again amazed the staff.
It was neither excessive nor perfunctory, and the amount of affection was just right.
The camera panned to Si Jingchuan.
“Cut!” Han Junlei apologized to Pei Huai first, then ran to Si Jingchuan and yelled at him, “what’s with that expression? You should be jealous! But you looked like you’re giving your blessings to a pair of newlyweds! If I didn’t say cut, you would be so touched that you would cry!”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Pei Huai said in a low voice, “thank you for your blessings.”
“…”
The corner of his eyes twitched. He had been so engrossed in watching that he had forgotten that he was still in the frame.
He scratched his head and said, “I’m sorry, I won’t do it again.”
The people around them started to discuss.
“Why do I feel like they look good together?”
“Yeah, yeah! I have the same feeling. Are we too deep into the character?”
There was an endless discussion around them. Not far away, Tang Yimo’s nails were almost digging into her palms.
