Du Lei held a cigarette between his fingers, but didn't light it. "What?"
"After investigating thoroughly, see if we can afford to offend them?"
Pei Zhi looked up and glanced at Du Lei. "I just want to get to know his parents."
"I feel like he was kicked out by Pei Wang today, but I guess he'll make a comeback in a few days."
Pei Zhi flicked the ash off her hand. "I'll go directly to his parents and ask them to take charge of this son, Fang Jun, once and for all."
Since Pei Zhi can't deal with Fang Jun, then she can only let Fang Jun's parents teach the child.
"You seem quite confident in your charm."
Du Lei's tone wasn't exactly sarcastic, but it wasn't exactly praising either.
Pei Zhi glanced at Du Lei, "Of course."
"Otherwise, what kind of business is it for you to stand here and inhale secondhand smoke with me?"
Du Lei shook his head in surprise. He had said long ago that Pei Zhi knew everything.
She simply chose to play dumb and was too lazy to expose the truth.
"I'll send you Fang Jun's parents' contact information later."
"Let me remind you, going directly to Fang Jun's father will yield better results."
"Fang Jun's mother only has one son, and she spoils him a bit too much."
Pei Zhi snapped out of her daze. "So, you had already investigated Fang Jun all along?"
"If you're not confident in your own charm, why are you asking?"
After learning from Pei Wang that Pei Zhi had a new suitor, Du Lei had Fang Jun's identity thoroughly investigated the very next day.
Du Lei was just doing it out of habit; he knew the situation inside and out and had no intention of doing anything.
Pei Zhi snorted, about to say something, when her mother's voice came through.
"Zhizhi, what are you and Leizi talking about? They're calling you for dinner."
Pei Zhi subconsciously looked down at the cigarette in her hand, and Du Lei snatched the cigarette from her hand, then put one arm around Pei Zhi's waist.
As Pei's mother approached, she saw Du Lei with his arm around Pei Zhi, a cigarette lit in his hand.
Mother Pei blushed slightly. "You've finished talking, come and eat."
As soon as Pei's mother left, Du Lei let go of her hand.
"Please don't take offense, it was all in a moment of panic."
Pei Zhi patted her sleeves: "It's no big deal."
Pei Zhi took a step and left first, while Du Lei looked at the cigarette in his hand, put it to his lips and took a puff.
The taste of this cigarette seems quite good, or perhaps it's because Pei Zhi smoked it before.
At the dinner table, Pei's mother, unlike her usual enthusiastic self, ate her meal in silence, occasionally glancing at the people around her.
When Pei's mother saw Du Lei and Pei Zhi being intimate, she became somewhat troubled.
Although, it doesn't matter who Zhizhi is with.
Zhizhi and Leizi are together now, what will Qingyuan do?
Xue Lin also has feelings for Zhi Zhi. Will they still be able to sit at the same table and eat together happily in the future?
Zhizhi is really something; she said during the day that she wasn't planning on finding a man recently.
She spent the night cuddling with Du Lei, without giving her, her mother, any preparation.
Pei's father, holding his chopsticks, spoke up, "Xue Lin just showed me your company's cell phone."
"Zhizhi, how much do you sell these phones for? If they're not too expensive, I'll buy a few to give to my relatives and friends."
Cheng Xuelin simply explained the camera function, which greatly surprised Pei's father.
Pei's father had never seen anything like it before. Such a small phone could capture people in such a clear picture.
This phone was made by his daughter's company.
Pei's father then wanted to buy a few to give to relatives and friends, to bring them honor.
Pei Wang understood what his father meant. "It's not expensive, only 1,800 each."
"How much?" Pei's father was shocked.
“One thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight. Dad, your savings should be enough to buy one or two of those phones.”
Pei Wang had a general idea of how much money his father had in savings.
The money for building the house was provided by Pei Wang and his two siblings.
But for small things, like treating the workers to meals, Pei's father also subsidized them quite a bit.
The two elderly people in the village lived off the harvest from their fields.
After holding it in for a long time, Pei's father finally blurted out, "Who can afford to buy it at such an expensive price?"
Take Pei's father for example, it's absolutely impossible for him to take out all his savings to buy a cell phone.
"Dad, you don't know this, but their company's mobile phones are sold overseas."
"They sell for even more abroad, five or six thousand each."
"My goodness!" Pei's father could only exclaim in shock.
"My dear child, are you afraid you'll get arrested?"
They sell such expensive items and even ship them overseas.
Pei's mother glared at Pei's father, "What are you saying, you old fool?"
Everyone at the table laughed.
Cheng Xuelin explained, "Dad, don't worry, our company's phones are clearly priced, we didn't steal or rob anyone, why would they arrest us?"
Pei's father was still worried: "Isn't it illegal to sell such expensive things?"
Pei Zhi said, "How much we sell it for is up to us. We're not forcing anyone to buy it."
Pei's father weighed the tiny object in his hand. Was this one thing all he had to save up for his entire life savings?
"Dad, technology is advancing, don't worry, our company is legal and compliant."
Pei's father suddenly remembered that Pei Zhi had said today that he would sponsor the road repair in the village.
"Today I spoke with the leaders, and they said that road construction is a big deal and that a meeting is needed."
Pei Zhi didn't have high expectations for the efficiency of the villagers.
"I don't have time to get involved, Dad, just pay attention. Once it's finalized, just give me a call."
“Alright.” Pei’s father was also willing to get involved in this matter.
Being surrounded by your superiors must feel quite prestigious.
Pei Wang hurriedly said, "You're going to repair roads in the village? Count me in!"
Du Lei nodded in agreement, "This is a good thing for the village. I'm also a part of the village, so let me do my part."
Cheng Xuelin looked up and saw that Pei Zhi looked displeased, so he didn't join in the commotion.
Pei Zhi: "Since you all love joining in the fun, and weddings are lively, why don't you join in the fun too?"
Du Lei shut his mouth completely, unwilling to compete with Pei Zhi.
Pei Wang retorted provocatively, "How can I not be married? If I weren't married, where would my two children come from?"
Pei Zhi chuckled softly, and Pei Wang's alarm blared.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong," Pei Wang immediately said politely.
Pei Wang patted his mouth: "You can participate in the road construction yourself, I won't get involved."
How could Pei Wang forget that Pei Zhi's mouth is not to be trifled with?
Seeing that Pei Wang was sensible, Pei Zhi didn't bring up the fact that Pei Wang had been cheated on and had been hospitalized, thus avoiding reopening Pei Wang's wounds.
Cheng Xuelin pondered, "The village needs to build roads, and the company's new products also need financial support."
"Is there a problem with the company's accounts?" Cheng Xuelin asked, leading his team at the company.
However, Cheng Xuelin was not in charge of finances; he was simply reminding Pei Zhi not to take too big a step.
"Your team is progressing too slowly. You should work overtime as needed. Don't worry about the finances."
Cheng Xuelin shut up completely and stopped worrying.
