As Chi Mu Jiu was about to remind him, she hadn't even opened her mouth when Pei Si reached out to grab her pink suitcase.
The suitcase remained completely still.
Pei Si thought the suitcase was light, so he didn't exert much effort, but clearly, he hadn't anticipated that he wouldn't be able to lift it at all. A flicker of surprise crossed his face, but he quickly returned to his usual composure.
Chi Mu Jiu watched Pei Si and the immovable suitcase, unsure of what to say.
Pei Si fell silent as well, and a hint of awkwardness hung in the air. Chi Mu Jiu's lips twitched slightly as she struggled not to laugh. After all, this was a serious moment concerning a man's dignity, and she wanted to give this so-called underworld boss some face. Yes, this underworld boss stood at an impressive height of six feet one inch and couldn't lift a suitcase belonging to a delicate woman.
Ahem. It seemed Miss Chi still had some reservations about herself.
Pei Si cleared his throat twice, trying to ease the unbearable awkwardness. A hint of discomfort flashed across his face before he mustered his strength and lifted the suitcase with one swift motion.
As he hoisted it up, Chi Mu Jiu noticed a hint of pride in his expression, as if to say: "See? I'm not some weakling. That was just a mistake; I can lift it!"
Unable to contain her amusement at Pei Si's expression, Chi Mu Jiu felt a smile creeping onto her face.
With the suitcase in hand, Pei Si strode confidently toward the door, his demeanor exuding an air of strength as if declaring to the world his power.
"Mr. Pei, you could just drag the suitcase; there's no need to carry it like a briefcase," Chi Mu Jiu couldn't help but remind him.
Pei Si paused slightly and replied stiffly, "I know..."
However, despite saying that he understood, he stubbornly lifted the pink suitcase even higher, as if trying to prove something.
Chi Mu Jiu watched his actions and couldn't help but smile; how did this man still seem so childish?
While Chi Mu Jiu changed her shoes inside the house, Pei Si waited for her outside the door, still holding the suitcase aloft.
The black business car from yesterday was parked outside the courtyard, steady and imposing.
Just a moment ago, he had muttered to himself, "No need to say too much."
"What?" Chi Mu Jiu didn't quite catch that.
Pei Si took a deep breath, turned to look at her, and in his blue eyes, there was a hint of embarrassment.
"Oh, are you saying that you couldn't lift the suitcase just now?" Chi Mu Jiu deliberately raised her voice a little.
"Lower your voice! You..."
He mumbled under his breath but still refused to put down her suitcase.
As he turned around, his neck visibly flushed red, looking like a child whose little secret had been exposed.
What a shameful situation!
The bodyguard waiting outside the car noticed Pei Si carrying something and thought about stepping forward to help.
Pei Si irritably replied in his native language, "Can you even lift it?"
Bodyguard.
