Chapter 242 What, hiding behind me?
Pei Zhiyi's face turned pale, and he replied in a lost voice: "I am really at my wit's end. I can't sleep on the street, so I have to resort to this last resort." "
Old Madam Pei gave you a place to live, so from now on, stay away. Otherwise, believe it or not, I will put you all in jail and make your life worse than death. Pei Zhiwan and the Pei family, if you dare to have any evil thoughts again, just try it."
Di Chen didn't look at her, and he exuded a murderous aura and warned in a deep voice.
After speaking, he turned back to the yard.
Pei Zhiyi's family of three were like wolves and rats.
Pei Zhiwan felt particularly uncomfortable when she thought of Pei Zhiyi and his family living here these days.
She immediately took out her mobile phone and called to hire a dozen part-time workers to clean up the old house.
"Wash what can be washed, and scrub what cannot be washed. I hope that no corner will be left out and must be disinfected. I will pay you three times the usual wages, otherwise if there are any traces of those who lived in the top before, don't blame me for not paying you."
The hourly workers were very excited about the triple salary. How could they not be happy to work one day for three days?
They all nodded and promised, and they would definitely satisfy their employer.
Pei Qizhong stayed to supervise the work.
Pei Zhiwan looked at Di Chen: "You go and do your own thing?"
Di Chen knew that she wanted to get rid of him and act alone, and snorted lightly: "I have no other purpose in coming to Tongnan except No. 8 Courtyard."
Pei Zhiwan shrugged helplessly, smiled nonchalantly, "Okay, then follow me." As
she spoke, she raised her head and made a gesture to get in the car.
Di Chen was driving again. Pei Zhiwan did not sit in the passenger seat this time, but sat behind him.
"Why, hiding behind me?" Di Chen said unhappily.
Pei Zhiwan responded calmly: "I just found out that this is the safest position. Children usually sit there, so I'll give it a try."
She sat behind
him so as not to feel like she had nowhere to hide. After the days when they were locked up in the cellar together in Courtyard No. 8, she had an inexplicable feeling about him and subconsciously wanted to hide.
Pei Zhiwan rested her head against the backrest of the driver's seat, hiding herself completely.
Di Chen increased his speed to an explosive speed. He
had an instinctive sense of insecurity because someone was hiding behind him.
Besides, he didn't know why Pei Zhiwan was hiding from him.
When he seemed to have some feelings for her.
Pei Zhiwan didn't tell him where she was going, and he wandered around the streets.
Pei Zhiwan couldn't wait for him to ask, so she had to take the initiative to say: "Go to Dodge Clothing Store."
Di Chen sneered: "You should have said it earlier, we've already been there."
"You didn't ask me where I was going, but you were running around the streets. You must be rich, right?" Pei Zhiwan retorted without showing any weakness.
Di Chen no longer responded, turned the car around at the next intersection and walked back.
...
"Is Mr. David here?" Pei Zhiwan didn't greet him in advance, and went directly to the salesgirl when she entered the store.
"Ms. Pei? Didn't you go to the capital? Why are you back again?" The salesgirl looked at her and asked in surprise.
When she was in Tongnan, she came to buy clothes from David several times, and the salesgirls in the store all knew her.
"I came back from the capital to see your manager David."
Pei Zhiwan took out a jade pendant tied with a red rope from her bag and put it on the cashier.
"We at Pei's are also designing jewelry now. I don't know what you like. Just pick the ones you like and wear them for fun."
The salesgirls came over. As soon as they saw the quality of the jade, they knew it was all good material. They all waved their hands and said they dared not accept it.
Pei Zhiwan smiled sincerely and said, "It's rare for me to come back. These are things from my own store. They are not worth much. You can all accept them."
Seeing that she really wanted to give them, the salesgirls could not refuse her kindness. They each picked out the styles they liked and tried them on happily in front of the dressing mirror.
"Wow, it's really beautiful. I like the color of jadeite with a little light pink. Thank you, Miss Pei."
"I also like this little Buddha. It's transparent and flawless without cracks or cotton. It's simply too perfect. Thank you, Miss Pei."
...
The salesgirls all thanked Pei Zhiwan.
She leaned lazily against the cashier and smiled, "We are all good sisters. No need to be polite."
"Miss Pei, Mr. David is here."
A salesgirl had already asked David to come out of the office.
"Miss Pei, I'm glad to see you again. I thought you went to the imperial capital and would never see you again..."
He shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be helpless, and then smiled happily, "I didn't expect to meet you again at this time. I'm so happy."
As he said that, he stepped forward and gently hugged Pei Zhiwan's arm, which was considered a hug.
"David, can we find a place to sit? I came from the capital this time and I have something very important to talk to you about."
Pei Zhiwan stared at him and asked with a smile.
David nodded and said, "Of course, it's been a long time since we last met. I'll treat you to coffee."
There is a freshly ground coffee shop next door, which has a good reputation.
The three of them came to the coffee shop and found a quiet seat by the window.
Pei Zhiwan got straight to the point and told him his purpose. He wanted to cooperate with David to open a clothing company, and as for the store here, he would continue to keep it.
David looked at Pei Zhiwan and Di Chen, with an embarrassed look on his face.
"You know, I don't like being constrained, so I gave up the title of chief fashion designer of a large international company and came to this small city to open a shop. I just want to find a quiet life, design as I like, encounter inspiration, and not be bound by money."
Pei Zhiwan couldn't help but applaud and said, "David, we are kindred spirits, and you are the right person to find."
Then she told him her plan, which was to cooperate in running a clothing company or to be a designer who didn't work in the office, and continue to realize his design dream of traveling, shooting, enjoying life, and encountering inspiration. As for the design drafts, it's fine, there is no limit.
Di Chen realized that she returned to Tongnan for David, the fashion designer.
Sure enough, everything was under her control, and he said that automatically.
But he was still very happy. Pei Zhiwan, this little woman, was becoming more and more interesting. He really underestimated him before.
David considered for a long time and finally made a decision. He nodded and said, "Since Miss Pei sincerely invited me, I am willing to cooperate with you. But I am not good at management, so I will be a designer. As for the design draft, I will produce it according to my mood. If I am in good condition, I can produce more. If I am not in good condition, I will not produce it for several months..."
Pei Zhiwan was very happy to see that he agreed: "No problem, everything will be the main focus, and inspiration will guide the work. David, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
She stood up, stretched out her hands, full of eager expectations.
David also stretched out his hand and shook hers: "Happy cooperation." "
David, after the World Jewelry Design Competition, there will be the Fashion Design Competition. Can you participate?" Pei Zhiwan asked with a smile.
David nodded excitedly and said, "I want to participate. It only happens once every four years and I have been waiting for a long time. If Miss Pei lets me participate in the company's name, it's fine. If not, I will participate as a Dodge designer. Either way is fine."
