He cleared his throat lightly, "Since she's a guest, we can't let her be alone. As one of the hosts of the Dining House, I naturally have to take good care of this guest."
His implication was obvious—he wanted to team up with the mystery guest.
Upon seeing this, Xia Wenyan immediately raised his hand to signal, "I want to team up with Miao'er!"
He already disliked Xia Wenjin, so his targets for forming a team were only Du Miao'er and the mystery guest. Now that Pei Huai had chosen the mystery guest, his only option left was Du Miao'er.
If he didn't choose now, considering the director's nature, there was a good chance he would be paired with Xia Wenjin.
He might as well die!
Sure enough, as soon as he spoke out, the director's eyebrows furrowed.
The purpose of teaming up was to intensify conflicts. He had just been considering how to make Xia Wenjin and Xia Wenyan team up when Pei Huai beat him to the punch.
The timing was perfect, but Xia Wenyan had spoken up first.
