Chapter 467: A Tormenting Wait
Pei Yuanyuan held his breath and carefully listened to the sound in the earpiece.
The sound of complicated footsteps, talking, and the "Didi" sound of instruments and equipment are intertwined, and the noise is difficult to hear clearly.
After waiting for a few seconds, he couldn't bear it anymore, "What's going on now?"
After coming over a while, the bodyguard said, "The doctor is examining Mrs. Pei." β
Pei Tingyuan asked, "It's been so long, haven't the test results come out yet?"
"......" The bodyguard was silent for a while, it was only a few minutes before and after, in Mr. Pei's mouth, it seemed that a day had passed, but in the end, they were husband and wife, and it was also light to be anxious to care, "Mr. Pei, you wait a while, as soon as there is a result, I will report it to you immediately." β
Pei Tingyuan was restless because he could only sit in the office, and asked, "When you found Mrs. Pei, what was the condition, did she bleed, where was the injury?
The bodyguard said: "Mrs. Pei passed out, and there were no external injuries on the surface, so the doctor is doing a detailed examination to prevent internal injuries." β
"Hmm. Pei Tingyuan clenched his fists, "Where is Sister-in-law Wang?"
The bodyguard said: "Mrs. Pei wants to eat dessert, and Sister-in-law Wang went to buy ingredients." β
"......" Pei Tingyuan sighed, it seems that Qiao Qiao deliberately told a lie in order not to let him worry about it.
After that, no one spoke on either end of the phone.
Pei Tingyuan continued to listen to the movement in the earpiece, and as time passed, his heartbeat was like a drum, and he didn't even notice that Ji Yang came in to deliver the documents.
Ji Yang saw that Pei Tingyuan's face was not very good, so he waited quietly to the side.
I don't know how long it took, but the voice of the bodyguard finally rang again on the phone.
"Mr. Pei. β
"I'm here, let's talk about it. β
The bodyguard said: "The doctor has done a detailed examination for Mrs. Pei, and according to the report, Mrs. Pei has no internal and external injuries, please rest assured Mr. Pei." β
"Are you awake?" Pei Tingyuan couldn't put his mind at ease at all, and asked eagerly.
The bodyguard said: "The doctor said that he would wake up soon, but in fact, the impact that Mrs. Pei suffered was not serious, but because of the previous injury, the body was weak." β
"Well, don't hang up the phone, I want to know as soon as my wife wakes up. Pei Tingyuan commanded, turned on the speaker of the mobile phone, then put it aside, and motioned for Ji Yang to bring the document over.
The bodyguard naturally didn't dare to slack off, connected the mobile phone to the power bank, and then carefully held it in his hand, for fear of accidentally bumping into it and hanging up the phone.
Time passed minute by minute, Pei Tingyuan was reviewing the documents, and his eyes glanced at the mobile phone screen from time to time.
On both ends of the phone, it was extremely quiet.
This quiet, but not calm.
Pei Tingyuan looked at the time again, and seeing that it was almost time to hold the signing ceremony, he sighed inaudibly.
Although there is no problem with the contract, just wait for both parties to sign it, but on this occasion, he must not be absent, otherwise he will inevitably drive over the moment he learns that Qiao Xihe has fallen and fainted.
He pinched his eyebrows, thinking that when the signing ceremony was over, Zhihu would rush to the hospital immediately.
I can only hope that Mr. Lambert will understand his painstaking efforts.
In the blink of an eye, Pei Tingyuan had to leave for the ceremony, he picked up his mobile phone and asked, "How is it now?"
The bodyguard on the other end immediately asked: "Mrs. Pei hasn't woken up yet, but according to the instrument, all the values of Mrs. Pei's body are normal." β
"Wait a minute, I have an important meeting, if Mrs. Pei wakes up, she will worry about me as soon as possible, do you know?"
"Yes, Mr. Pei. β
Pei Tingyuan didn't hang up the phone, the bodyguard on the other end would never take the initiative to hang up, he looked and looked, waited and waited, and there was no reaction at all, so he could only shake his head helplessly, press the hang-up button, and then leave the office with Ji Yang.
The signing ceremony was held at the Universal Diya Hotel, and when Pei Tingyuan came to the scene on time, the hotel's garden lawn was already ready.
Employees of the two companies, various media, and invited guests gathered here.
Pei Tingyuan walked through the crowd, and after greeting everyone, he sat down in the first row of seats under the stage under the guidance of Miss Etiquette.
He looked around, and finally noticed that Lu Xiwen was also there.
Her face was not very good, and although she had heavy makeup on her cheeks, she couldn't hide a trace of tiredness between her eyebrows.
Lu Xiwen noticed Pei Tingyuan's gaze, waved her hand and greeted, "President Pei." β
Pei Tingyuan nodded, and then looked away.
Then, he glanced at his phone, and the bodyguard at the hospital had not heard from him, and Mr. Lambert was late if he didn't come again.
Lu Xiwen stretched her neck as quietly as possible, and secretly glanced at Pei Tingyuan's mobile phone screen, wanting to see what he was doing, but the sun fell on the screen and said that it could be changed, reflecting the light, and she didn't see anything.
Pei Tingyuan pondered for a while, and was about to call the bodyguard, when he noticed a sudden commotion in the crowd.
He thought it was Mr. Lambert coming, so he hurriedly put away his mobile phone and wanted to get up to greet him, but he heard Ji Yang say in a low voice: "Mr. Pei, it is Mr. Lambert's special assistant who is here." β
Pei Tingyuan raised his eyes and saw that the special assistant walked over hurriedly, greeting the people around him with a smile, and there seemed to be some apology between his words.
He narrowed his eyes, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.
The special assistant walked up to Pei Tingyuan, bowed down with deep apologies, and said, "Mr. Pei, I'm sorry, Mr. Lambert has a temporary emergency that needs to be dealt with before he can come over, so I'm sorry, I need you to wait a little longer." β
Pei Tingyuan nodded, "I see." β
"I'm sorry, Mr. Pei. The special assistant apologized again, bowed forty-five degrees, and left the venue.
Pei Tingyuan's eyes looked at the back of the special assistant leaving, and whispered to Ji Yang: "You send someone to check what Mr. Lambert is doing now." β
The world is coming, but there is an unexpected situation, which is so strange that he has to suspect that this so-called "emergency" event is actually affecting today's signing ceremony.
It is not the first time that GEW suddenly reversed itself and unilaterally canceled the cooperation at the signing ceremony.
Ji Yang hurriedly stepped aside to make a phone call.
Pei Tingyuan looked into the distance again, and then lowered his head and called the bodyguard at the hospital, "How is it?"
The bodyguard was a little crying and laughing, "Mr. Pei, Mrs. Pei hasn't woken up yet." β
Pei Tingyuan frowned, "Didn't you say that you would wake up soon?"
Before the bodyguard could answer, a voice came from overheadβ
"Brother Tingyuan, don't worry, there will definitely be no problems with the signing ceremony. β
