She seemed to have fallen in love with Tong Pei.
Tong Pei also realized that he was speechless, but at that moment, he only wanted to know Guo Miao’s answer, so he asked abruptly, “I’m sorry. Did I ask this question a little too suddenly? I’m sorry to have put you in a difficult position.”
Guo Miao didn’t answer. She just stared blankly at Tong Pei’s profile picture on her phone, not knowing how to respond.
Tong Pei had helped her out of her predicament and taken her to many places.
The instant sense of reliance and security that she felt could no longer be described as a simple crush.
Before she was reborn, he had already planted the seed when he took her away from her miserable state. Everything that had happened in this life had already taken root and blossomed in her heart.
Alas, she didn’t know how to say it.
“Maybe… It must be someone who has crossed many obstacles to reunite with me,” Guo Miao said subconsciously.
Tong Pei didn’t know what happened before she was reborn, so he naturally couldn’t guess that the person she was talking about was him.
“The person you’ve reunited with?” Tong Pei repeated this sentence in a low voice, and the emotions in his voice could not be heard.
Reunited?
When did they first meet?
Tong Pei looked out of the window and sighed softly. “I was rude today. Go to bed early. I have to go to work first.”
Guo Miao hummed softly and hung up the phone. She sat on the bed and held her phone for a long time, unable to calm down.
Why did Tong Pei ask this question? Could it be because Tong Pei liked her?
Guo Miao shook her head when she thought of this.
How was that possible?
The legendary Tong Pei did not get close to women. Perhaps he maintained such a relationship with her just to have business cooperation in the future, or out of gratitude. How could he like her?
However, she seemed to have really fallen in love with Tong Pei.
Shaking her head, Guo Miao tidied her clothes and walked out of the room.
On the top floor of the Jinyue Group in Beijing, Tong Pei frowned as he looked at his phone screen.
Who was the person she had reunited with? Did Guo Miao have a childhood sweetheart or someone she had a crush on when she was young?
Tong Pei didn’t want to admit that he should be a little jealous of that person. How did he get to have Guo Miao’s love?
He had put in so much effort, but Guo Miao still seemed to regard him as a friend.
He dialed the internal line and called Tong Huan in.
Tong Huan was shocked when he saw Tong Pei. “Boss, didn’t you catch a wink the whole night?”
Tong Pei was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday. He even maintained the same posture as he sat in front of the window with his phone in his hand.
What news did the boss see? How could he have stayed here for a night?
“Nothing much. Help me check on someone who knew Guo Miao before and then reunited with her,” Tong Pei said slowly.
The moment he heard this, Tong Huan felt that he might have woken up too early in the morning and did not wake up in the correct dimension. “What did you say? Miss Guo Miao’s what?”
“The person who reunited with Guo Miao might be a childhood sweetheart or something.” Tong Pei rested his chin on his hand as if he was really seriously thinking about this problem.
Tong Huan scratched his head. This problem was really not easy to solve. Whether they knew each other or not was actually very much coincidental. It was still very troublesome to investigate.
However, what he didn’t understand was his boss’s interest in Guo Miao.
Tong Pei had always been a man who did not get close to women. For so many years, several families in the capital had wanted their daughters to marry Tong Pei, but Tong Pei had never been moved. What did Guo Miao do to stir his boss’s calm heart?
“Do you understand?” Tong Pei asked when he saw that Tong Huan was still in a daze.
“I understand. However, the difficulty of this mission is quite high. It will probably take some time to investigate the people that Miss Guo Miao has met over the years…” Tong Huan stammered.
“As soon as possible. I’ll give you a bonus this month.”
“Really?” Tong Huan’s eyes lit up when he heard about the bonus.
He had just made a mistake a few months ago, and Tong Pei had removed his bonus, but because of Guo Miao, he seemed to be able to get the bonus again.
When he got the money, he had to thank Guo Miao.
Looking at Tong Huan’s silly appearance, Tong Pei said with a cold face, “Hurry up and go and get a hold of yourself!”
“Alright, 1 promise to complete the mission!” Tong Huan made a military salute gesture..
