Chapter 35: Starting to Care about Jiang Sheng
Being hung up, Pei Siyan furrowed his brow and dialed back within a second, but the voice in the phone told him that Jiang Sheng’s phone was already off.
“That damn little prick.” Pei Siyan had a fit. He clenched the phone in his hand tightly and was covered with coldness all over his body.
As for the executives were in the conference room, none of them dared to make a sound. They were all looking at their feet in panic while sitting squarely.
However, they were also curious about the one that could distract their boss even when he was on his business trip to the branch company.
“Ahem, Mr. Pei.”
Secretary Bai cleared her throat and reminded Pei Siyan.
Pei Siyan didn’t look up and was texting Bai Hao. He then commanded coldly, “Let’s continue.”
Secretary Bai hesitated for a second and responded, “Yes.” Then she let the executives continue with their work reports.
After that, she let out a sigh, ‘He probably just called his wife right? Because I’ve never seen anyone dared to hang up his phone like that.’
On the other side, Bai Hao received the text Pei Siyan had just sent him. He was holding the medical kit in his hand and was about to tap open the text. But Pei Siyan seemed to be impatient already, so he made his call to Bai Hao already.
“What’s up?” Bai Hao asked curiously because Pei Siyan was in the middle of his business trip, and it should be the morning meeting time over there. In other words, Pei Siyan shouldn’t have had the time to call him.
“Did he run away?” Pei Siyan questioned without emotion.
“No! He’s now right inside the room!”
Bai Hao opened the door and saw Jiang Sheng who just threw his own phone away.
“What is it? You two are having a quarrel again?” Bai Hao smiled and asked.
‘What a surprise! This is the first time that Pei Siyan called back to ask about Jiang Xiao during a business trip since Jiang Xiao has come here for the past six months. It seems like Pei Siyan is really starting to care about him.”
“Get him on the phone.”
“Okay.” Bai Hao smiled again and handed his phone over to Jiang Sheng, “He’s asking for you to pick up the phone.”
Jiang Sheng knew it was Pei Siyan so he yelled at the phone, “I’m not picking up the f**king phone!”
Then he reluctantly gave his arm to Bai Hao for injection.
“He said he won’t pick up.” Bai Hao placed the phone by his ear and said with a smile on his face.
“I’m not deaf.” Pei Siyan’s voice was stone-cold. If Jiang Sheng is now with him, he would definitely have himself beaten up.
“Anything you want me to tell him?” Bai Hao asked and switched the phone to speaker mode.
“Tell him I’ll break his legs if he ever thinks of running away.”
‘That’s harsh! Break his legs, like literally.”
Bai Hao was just enjoying the drama between them while Jiang Sheng took over his phone and hung up the call without any hesitation. He then said to Bai Hao grumpily, “Are you done with that f**king injection? I’ll go take a shower and go to bed if you are done with it.”
“Wait wait wait, we still have some injections to do.”
Bai Hao replied in a sassy tone. He put his phone back into his pocket and then opened the medical kit.
Just as Bai Hao pushed the needle into Jiang Sheng’s arm, the glowing red magic circle on his neck made Bai Hao shiver.
‘A damage transmitting magic circle? And it was cast by Pei Siyan? Seriously?’
Bai Hao looked completely surprised because that sort of magic circle could transmit the damage and even death that a man took to another one.
‘Pei Siyan, that was a bold move, way to bold, to be honest. Was it because this man looks way too similar to Lan Yuan? And you just can’t stop worrying about him?’
“Hey! Are you done? Why are you in a daze?”
The tube was empty already, but Bai Hao hadn’t pulled the needle out, so Jiang Sheng complained impatiently.
“Oops, sorry.”
Bai Hao pulled out the needle immediately, and a touch of panic showed up on his face.
How can he not panic? As long as the magic circle is still working, Pei Siyan would die for Jiang Sheng if Jiang Sheng has any life-threatening crisis or wounds.
“Remember, don’t get hurt. Understand?” Bai Hao crinkled up his eyebrows and warned Jiang Sheng seriously.
Jiang Sheng was bewildered. Just as he was about to ask the meaning behind that, Bai Hao had already left in a hurry while talking on the phone.
“Why is everyone warning me not to get hurt?” Jiang Sheng was confused.
He then touched his shoulder and sat up. He checked himself in the mirror, but he found nothing strange about it.
“That’s weird. This was the spot that he was just staring at!”
‘Could it be that Pei Siyan used some trick on me when he bit me?’
