Ding Dong

Hearing the doorbell, Malcolm went to open the door and found that Poppi was wearing a hat and a

mask, furtively looking around at the door with a guilty conscience. Malcolm was angry with her, not

good to say, "Come in! Don't deceive yourself! "

Poppi pushed into the room like a loach and took off her mask. "It's not deluding myself! It's too risky. I

met a security guard and two cleaners. It should be said that, fortunately, I am wearing a mask. "

"What? Is it shameful to come here to see me? " Hearing this, Malcolm hummed, feeling more

depressed.

"It's not about losing face or not." Poppi took back her smile and explained seriously, "you want to be

seen? Mr. Mo, don't forget who we are, right? "

Malcolm cast a cold glance at Poppi and sat down at the table, "peel the shrimps!"

Looking at these two dishes of braised shrimps on the table, Poppi really had a good appetite. After

swallowing some saliva, she asked, "Mr. Mo, do you want to eat these two dishes? If not... "

"we can eat now." "Peel it," said Malcolm as he snatched the presentation

"……" Poppi snorted and murmured that Malcolm was rude, but she have to peel the shrimps

obediently. While peeling the shell, she glanced at Malcolm's suite, and sighed," we are all on a

business trip. What a big difference."

But Malcolm snorted," if you want, Benson will definitely change room for you immediately."

Poppi was peeling the shrimps and stopped. "Mr. Mo, why did you mention him! He is my boss. I am an

employee. What else can I ask him for me? "

"What about what you are wearing tonight?" Malcolm said in reply. Yes, he was angry to see Poppi

dressed so beautiful tonight!

"Mr. Mo, you're got to be kidding." Poppi peeled a shrimp and said with a smile, "how could it be my

request? It was put on the bed as soon as I entered the room..." In the middle of the sentence, Poppi

also realized that something was wrong. Who would put the clothes in her room? Moreover, the clothes

she was wearing this were not only fit well, but also expensive. She had been on a business trip

several times, but she had never received such a good dress Was she really too careless?

Malcolm glanced at Poppi lightly and found there was something wrong with her expression. He

sneered, "what? Why didn't you realize something until now? You shouldn't have made such a silly

mistake. Did you do it on purpose? "

"It was really beyond my expectation." Poppi continued to peel the shrimps and said, "believe it or not."

"You don't accept Hugh's love, not for him?" Then Malcolm added," you took the opportunity to accept

the gift from Benson, so that you two could be reconciled."

"What Why do you bring up Hugh again? " "What the hell is the reunion and the gift? Mr. Mo, you are

so imaginative," Poppi said angrily

"It's all because you are not reassuring." Then he threw the speech on the table.

"What can I do to please you, Mr. Mo?" Poppi could not help raising her voice, "Didn't you say that I

can find a boyfriend? You took away the agreement when you wanted to change the agreement, so the

search for a boyfriend is not invalid, right? Mr. Mo, I have not harmed your interests, nor will I be with

Hugh. As for why Please forgive me. "

"Get out!" Suddenly, Malcolm banged the table and stood up straight with his back to Poppi, "get out!"

Poppi was stunned and suddenly encouraged. She threw away the shrimp and said, "fine, I

will just go out!" Then she turned around and ran outside. The door was slammed shut with anger.

"Poppi..." Malcolm turned around suddenly and thumped the table. It was he who was crazy. He

wanted to ask her more and more, wanted to control her more and more! He didn't want Poppi to be

with Benson, and he didn't want her to have any connection with Hugh. He just wanted to As usual,

Poppi quietly peeled shrimps for him

Poppi rushed out of the corridor in one breath. She didn't take the elevator but ran to the stairs, rubbing

down and panting. The more she thought about it, the more horrible she was. Actually, she didn't want

to make Malcolm misunderstand her relationship with Benson! I was going crazy! She would be mad if

she stayed with Malcolm for one more second!

The next morning, the sun rose as usual, but there was a layer of water vapor on the glass, which

showed how cold the outside was.

Not daring to slacken off, Poppi got up early, put on a professional suit and rushed to the conference

room on the third floor with the attitude of a reporter like she should. Today's opening was a TV show

on behalf of young entrepreneurs, Malcolm Quan. She was so reluctant to face it.

In the conference hall, there were rows of cameras. In front of the cameras, the reporters were sitting

on the small chairs and waiting. Their clothes were different, but everyone wanted to be favored in the

question and answer session.

Poppi squeezed into the group where her magazine was, sat on the small stool and tried to hide

herself.

"The Internet industry is developing rapidly..."

"Today's mid-year appreciation Festival..."

"Now let's welcome the CEO of the SG group, Mr. Malcolm Quan!"

Malcolm finally came to the stage after Poppi hearing about an hour's crap.

With the paper in his hand, Malcolm stood up and smoothed his clothes. Then he walked toward the

platform with firm steps. The flashes flickered faster and faster.

The PPT was displayed on the big screen at the back of the stage. Malcolm stood on the left side of the

stage, towards Poppi. He was tall, standing on the stage, as dazzling as a superstar.

"Hello, everyone. I'm the CEO of the JG group, Malcolm. I'm very glad to be here to share my

experience with you." As soon as Malcolm opened his mouth, his deep voice flowed into Poppi's heart

like spring water. He calmly opened his mouth. There was clearly a manuscript in his hand, but he did

not read it. It was a domineering aura that could control everything. The domineering air was exposed

and made it look like a valley.

Poppi was in a trance and at this moment, the more she looked at him, the better she felt he was. After

all, he was rich, powerful, handsome and single-minded to the love. How could such a man be not

good.

"Hope everyone can get the success they want under the great tendency of the Internet. Thank you! "

The speech of Malcolm was quite short. Malcolm had already finished before Poppi came to herself.

Hardly had his voice faded away, a group of journalists raised their hands and scrambled to ask

questions. A staff walked past Malcolm and said, "it's the question and answer time. Friends from the

press may ask questions one by one. Mr.Mo will try his best to answer reporter's questions."

Poppi was hesitating to raise her hand, but she finally gave up when she saw there was nothing on her

notebook.

Casting a glance at Poppi, Malcolm pointed to the people beside her and asked her a series of

questions easily. When he answered, he always looked at Poppi, the first question, the second

question and the third

"That's all for today's question!" After answering three questions, Malcolm opened his mouth suddenly,

which surprised all the staff around him. Then he turned around and went down the stage. 'what an

ungrateful woman Poppi is! All the people present want to be named by me except her!'? Only she,

only her!

All people present were somewhat confused. The face of the last one who asked questions to Malcolm

almost paled and thought it was because of something wrong with him. He was still in a trance until

Malcolm stepped down the stage.

However, the procedure had to be continued. The staff soon calmed down and announced the next

step.

Poppi even did not have the time to have lunch. She rushed to the hall and ran around with the people

from the periodical office. She did not get free until three o'clock in the afternoon, and the

communication on the first day of the appreciation meeting ended. Then she had the time to have lunch

with all the staff.

"I'm free this afternoon, do you want to go out for a walk?"

"Great! I heard that there is a wishing tree on the Simon mountain in the west of the hotel. Let's go to

make a wish, shall we? "

The whispers of two young girls at the next table were heard by Poppi. Feeling bored, she pricked up

her ears to listen.

"Simon mountain? Is that the group of mountains we saw in our room? It looks like a hill, less than 100

meters high! "

"There is a crooked tree on the hillside. I heard that it's very effective when person made a wish in front

of the tree. The tree is filled with wishing sticks. The higher the wishing sticks are thrown, the greater

the chance it will come true."

"What kind of wish can I make?"

"It's all up to you to get married, to seek the health of your family, to get promoted and make fortune."

Poppi's eyes suddenly widened. For family's health?

"Can you tell me? I want to make a wish, too. " Poppi quickly leaned over to the next table. After

chatting with the two girls expertly, she got what she wanted.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Poppi was ready to go. She rushed to the Simon mountain with her

prepared wishes. According to the route, she could go back and forth in an hour.

"Go to Simon, master." Poppi called a taxi at the gate of the hotel.

"Got it!" The driver was very enthusiastic. After driving, he chatted with Poppi kindly. When he knew

that she was going to make a wish, he reminded her, "if you go to make a wish today, be quick. It's

cooler in the evening and the temperature on the Pebin is very low between day and night. After nine

o'clock in the evening, the temperature can reach zero. "

Poppi smiled with relief and said, "it's all right. I'll be back soon."

The driver nodded, "it's only five o'clock now. As long as you don't get lost, you will be back at six. It

doesn't matter if you get lost. As long as you walk east through the crooked tree, you can surely go

downhill. "

"Okay, thank you, master." Poppi carried her bag and got out of the car. When she went up the

mountain, she met people going down the mountain.

After climbing for more than ten minutes, Poppi stopped at a slow slope and took a rest. When she

arrived at the Pebin, she only brought high heels with her. She had never thought that she would climb

a mountain. It was a tremendous challenge. However, the view in front of her was really beautiful.

Poppi looked at the sky in the West and found that the sun was coming down but hanging on the

distant mountains. The red color of the sun merged with the clouds in the sky and became a magic and

gorgeous color. She felt really refreshed and happy now.

It seems that it's well worth going out. The most worthy thing in this world is the beauty of nature.
