A bald manager said, "Young lady, you look quite young. Would you be interested in coming to my company as a model or something?"

Pei Zhi asked curiously, "How much do models earn a month?"

Seeing that Pei Zhi was interested, the bald-headed manager laughed and said, "If you work for Hu Shi, whatever he pays you, I'll double it, how about that?"

Hu Shih, unable to bear it any longer, put down his chopsticks, but Pei Zhi pressed down on Hu Shih's arm.

"He pays me one million a month, and you want to pay me two million?"

Pei Zhi leaned back in her chair, sizing up the bald-headed manager. "You don't even have a hundred thousand yuan to your name. You're trying to poach me? How dare you even ask?"

"Although Hu Shi is a bit old, at least he's not bald. If you want me to work for you, you should pay me some compensation for emotional distress, since seeing you is a bit of an eyesore."

Hu Shi coughed and reminded Pei Zhi, "We don't need to mention the part about being old."

When the bald-headed manager saw Hu Shi and Pei Zhi singing in unison, he felt utterly humiliated.

Brother Wang stood up to try and smooth things over, but the bald-headed manager retorted angrily, "What? You think you've got everything under control just because you signed a contract with our company?"

"We only signed a six-month contract. Judging from your attitude, Hu Shi, are you not planning to renew it?"

"I never would have guessed, Hu Shi, that he would be so generous for a woman who's not even presentable?"

Seeing the man insult Pei Zhi, Hu Shi could no longer sit still. He picked up a wine bottle and angrily shouted, "Damn it, who are you calling low-class?"

"Say that again if you dare, and I'll make sure you get out of here lying on your back!"

Wang Ge never expected that Hu Shi would resort to violence at the slightest provocation.

The other responsible persons also looked rather grim upon seeing this.

While blocking Hu Shi, Brother Wang gave the person in charge a wry smile.

"I'm sorry, Hu Shi had too much to drink today and his mind wasn't quite right. I apologize on his behalf."

"It seems that it's not appropriate to continue the dinner today, so we'll be leaving now."

Brother Wang nudged Pei Zhi, who was still eating fish, and gave her a meaningful look.

Pei Zhi took a napkin, wiped her mouth, and was about to get up.

"What, you think you can just leave after spouting such nonsense?"

The bald-headed manager, however, had no intention of letting them go so easily.

"If you want to leave, then let her drink a toast with each of us, and we'll call it even."

Upon hearing this, Hu Shih was instantly enraged: "Fuck your grandpa!"

Pei Zhi calmly wiped her hands with a wet wipe and pressed down on the restless Hu Shi.

"Sit down. They asked me to drink the nuptial wine, but they didn't ask you to. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Wang watched as Pei Zhi pressed Hu Shi, whom he had almost lost control of despite using all his strength, into a chair.

"Since we're going to drink from the same cup, this cup is so boring."

Pei Zhi picked up an empty bowl from the side, took the bottle of liquor, and poured it directly into the bowl.

The bowl was too big; even after a whole bottle of wine was down, it wasn't full.

Two bowls of wine emptied two bottles of baijiu.

Pei Zhi, holding a bowl in one hand, approached the bald-headed person in charge. "Come on, let's have a toast."

The bald manager looked at the wine in the bowl, which was as clear as water, but when he got closer, he could smell a strong aroma of wine.

Pei Zhi raised an eyebrow. "What, are you scared?"

Pei Zhi held up her bowl and said, "I'll drink first, then you can drink, so you won't accuse me of bullying you."

After Pei Zhi finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp without even taking a breath, drinking as if it were water.

After downing a bowl of baijiu, Pei Zhi didn't even flinch.

Pei Zhi turned the empty bowl upside down. "Your turn."

"After you finish this bowl of wine, not only will you not drink with me, but I'll grant you whatever you want to do."

The bald-headed manager looked left and right, gritted his teeth, and picked up the bowl.

After only a sip or two, the bald-headed manager started coughing incessantly.

The bald-headed manager put down his bowl and begged for mercy repeatedly: "No, no, I can't take it anymore."

"No? A man can't say no."

Pei Zhi put one foot on the chair and grabbed the bald man's collar with the other hand.

Pei Zhi picked up the bowl and poured the contents directly into the bald man's mouth.

"Your mouth is so dirty. I heard that liquor disinfects, so I'll disinfect your mouth for you."

Seeing this, the other responsible persons offered to come and help.

Pei Zhi gave her a look and said, "What, you want to have a toast with me too?"

Several people in charge were intimidated by Pei Zhi's gaze and shook their heads repeatedly.

Brother Wang hissed, "Pei Zhi seems like a quiet and gentle girl, how come she's so fierce?"

Hu Shi scoffed, "This is nothing."

"Hey, it's a shame that your watch endorsement contract will probably only last for six months."

Hu Shih looked at his agent and asked, "How do you know it wasn't him who was replaced?"

"Him?" Brother Wang looked at the bald-headed manager. "He's the manager in China. Who can replace him?"

Hu Shih shrugged. "Who knows? Anyway, there will definitely be such a person."

Brother Wang shook his head, feeling that Hu Shih was a bit eccentric.

However, Hu Shih had many endorsements, and it was a pity that he no longer endorsed high-end watches, but out with the old, in with the new.

The bald-headed manager drank some of the baijiu (Chinese liquor), but spilled most of it on himself.

Pei Zhi patted the bald, greasy face of the person in charge. "Look at your oily face. You never even look in the mirror before you go out. You have a little money in your pocket, so you think you're someone special, huh?"

Pei Zhi placed the empty bowl directly on his head. "You've finished your wine. Are you still going to drink the nuptial wine?"

The bald-headed manager shook his head repeatedly, "I won't drink anymore, I won't drink anymore, I'll never dare to drink again."

"My name is Pei Zhi. If you want to settle accounts later, just come to me, understand?"

"I dare not do it again, I dare not settle accounts with you."

After dealing with the bald man, Pei Zhi looked at the others.

"Who wants to drink more?"

The people in charge were sobered up by the shock and shook their heads, saying, "We won't drink."

Pei Zhi clapped her hands and turned to Hu Shi, "Aren't we going to see a movie? Shall we go?"

Hu Shi nodded, stood up, and followed behind Pei Zhi.

Brother Wang smiled obsequiously at the people in charge of the private room, then slipped away.

Pei Zhi took the wet wipes Hu Shi handed her, "It's been so many years, and this circle is still the same."

A group of greasy men, whose eyes light up when they see a beautiful woman.

It seems they derive a sense of accomplishment from making things difficult for women.

Hu Shih also chimed in with a comment: "Bad people are just old, not dead."

Hu Shi asked worriedly, "But you just drank quite a bit of liquor, are you alright?"

Hu Shi had drunk with Pei Zhi, but he had never seen Pei Zhi drunk, nor did he know how much Pei Zhi could drink.

Pei Zhi stretched and said, "That little bit of wine only helped me fall asleep at most."
