Hu Shi told Pei Zhi that there was a dinner party, so Pei Zhi changed out of her home clothes and put on a white casual outfit.
"Change into something else. This outfit of yours looks just like loungewear, doesn't it?"
Pei Zhi said with dissatisfaction, "What's wrong? Do you expect me to sell my body at this dinner party?"
"I'm your boss now. You're dressed so disgustingly, it's an eyesore."
Hu Shih threatened in a low voice, "You should think about who pays your salary?"
Pei Zhi glared at Hu Shi, but eventually gave in and went upstairs to change her clothes.
Hu Shi patted his chest, "That was so awesome!"
Even if you beat Hu Shi to death, he never imagined that one day he would dare to speak to Pei Zhi like that.
Sure enough, whoever pays gets to be the boss.
Hu Shih had created many luxury brands, and based on Pei Chih's figure, Hu Shih's assistant sent over a lot of clothes.
Pei Zhi returned to her room, changed into a white dress, and tied her hair into a ponytail.
Although Pei Zhi did not wear makeup, she put on high heels to show respect for Hu Shi.
As Pei Zhi helped herself down the stairs, Brother Wang's eyes widened in surprise.
Although I knew Pei Zhi was pretty.
But Pei Zhi always wears casual clothes, and today, after dressing up a little, she looks like a completely different person.
Her arms and legs were exposed, their white skin glowing.
Brother Wang leaned closer to Hu Shi and asked, "You said she's thirty-five this year?"
Brother Wang had previously signed an assistant contract with Pei Zhi and had seen Pei Zhi's ID card.
At first, I just thought Pei Zhi was too young.
Some people are like that, with a face that doesn't show their age at all.
Pei Zhi, wearing high heels, walked up to Hu Shi, twirled around, and asked, "How was it?"
"No, go back and change."
Hu Shih rebuked him, saying, "You're thirty-five years old. It's not appropriate for you to wear such a short skirt. Be careful of gout!"
You're the one with gout!
Pei Zhi was too lazy to bother changing it again: "It looks fine as is."
Hu Shi suggested to Pei Zhi, "No, you can't dress like that. Why don't you wear something more casual?"
Pei Zhi looked too young with this outfit, which made Hu Shi feel uncomfortable.
It's as if he's the only one who's gotten old over the years.
If he and Pei Zhi went out together, people would think that they were from different generations, right?
"You're already this age, why can't you dress more intellectually?"
Pei Zhi was too lazy to listen to Hu Shi's nagging: "I'm going to change into another set. If you dare to nag again, I'll twist your head off and flush it down the toilet!"
Hu Shi said to Pei Zhi's retreating figure, "The skirt should be below the knee, otherwise you'll get rheumatism."
"Shut up."
Pei Zhi casually picked out a long dress from the wardrobe, changed into flat shoes, and let her hair down.
When Pei Zhi came down, Hu Shi wanted to offer his comments.
However, Pei Zhi's gaze was too fierce, and Hu Shi dared not speak.
Hu Shih thought that Pei Zhi's outfit was not as good as her original white casual wear.
Pei Zhi took a dark green V-neck long dress, which did not expose her knees and was not too revealing in the chest area.
The dress looks ordinary, but for some reason, it looks exceptionally good on Pei Zhi.
The color made Pei Zhi look especially fair, giving her a unique charm.
Brother Wang reminded us, "We can't be late for this meal."
Hu accepted it and didn't bother to nitpick anymore.
After getting on the train, Hu Shih told Pei Zhi, "Just eat well later."
Pei Zhi tossed her hair. "What if someone toasts me?"
Hu Shi bluntly said, "If he's handsome, you can drink a cup; if he's not handsome, you can pour it on his head."
Pei Zhi nodded, "Reliable, brother."
Upon hearing this, Brother Wang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, quickly said, "The people coming to eat later are all people who have worked with Hu Shi. Let's show them a little respect."
Hu Shih quickly said, "Don't listen to him."
While chatting, we arrived at the underground parking lot.
The restaurant has a dedicated entrance, so there's no need to worry about being photographed.
Pei Zhi walked beside Hu Shi, listening to him introduce the restaurant's signature dishes.
"The fish here is absolutely delicious, and the roast duck is also very good. We can eat more of it later."
"The vegetables they use are all claimed to be organic and air-freighted."
Hu Shih arrived early and waited for less than ten minutes before the person in charge arrived.
There were four people who came with them, all of them middle-aged men.
Brother Wang got up to greet him and introduced each person to Hu Shi one by one. Finally, he introduced Pei Zhi, saying that he was Hu Shi's friend.
Brother Wang deliberately didn't mention that he was Hu Shi's assistant.
There was only one pretty girl at this dinner party.
There will always be some unclean men who think that girls are just another dish on the table.
Brother Wang specifically mentioned that he was a friend of Hu Shi, hoping that the person in charge would not misunderstand.
When the men saw Pei Zhi, their eyes lit up, and they praised Hu Shi for his good fortune.
Hu Shi was slightly displeased, but he did not utter a word of rebuttal.
Hu Shi had a vague premonition that bringing Pei Zhi to the dinner party today was a mistake.
After the food and drinks were served, Brother Wang filled his glass with wine and started toasting people in circles.
Once Hu Shih reached this level of status, he naturally didn't need to lower himself to drink with others.
This kind of thing can be left to the agent.
The agent first thanked the several managers, saying they had the foresight to choose Hu Shi.
After saying a lot of high-sounding words and drinking with everyone, the agent sat down.
Pei Zhi sat next to Hu Shi, quietly eating her food.
Wearing gloves, Hu Shi wrapped a roast duck in a bag and handed it to Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi held chopsticks in her hand, took a bite from Hu Shi's hand, and then gave Hu Shi a thumbs-up.
One of the managers suddenly said, "When the contract was signed, it wasn't mentioned that Hu Shi was in a relationship, was it?"
Brother Wang quickly explained, "No, no, Hu Shi didn't date anyone, he was just a friend."
"Don't worry, if Hu Shi really falls in love, I will definitely inform your brand in advance."
In the entertainment industry, once a male celebrity is in a relationship and it gets exposed, it will inevitably have some impact on his popularity.
Even someone like Hu Shi, a powerful and influential actor, had a significant impact.
The person in charge smiled and nodded, "We all understand. As long as we're not photographed, we're all friends."
Hu Shi somewhat rudely stuffed the rest of the roast duck into Pei Zhi's mouth, then said sarcastically, "So you probably don't have any friends, right?"
"So, they can't stand that I have such good friends."
Hu Shi's words were somewhat impolite, and the person in charge wanted to retort, but then remembered the rumors circulating in the circle.
Hu Shih had powerful backing, so he held back and didn't retaliate.
Brother Wang tugged at Hu Shi's sleeve, signaling him to tone it down.
We mustn't let this newly signed brand endorsement deal turn into something unpleasant.
Brother Wang stood up with his wine glass in hand and drank several more glasses of baijiu before the atmosphere became a little more harmonious.
After a few rounds of drinks, some of the men got a little tipsy and some couldn't control their mouths anymore.
