The light in the box was slightly dim. Xie Shizhu squinted his eyes and stared at the man's face for a long time before he was sure it was Pei Huai.
She thought that this slap had opened Pei Huai's Ren and Du meridians.
He actually summoned Pei Huai.
The people around were stunned, and then something even more shocking happened before their eyes.
Although Mr. Pei was slapped hard by a woman and half of his face was slightly swollen, it seemed that he needed to go to the hospital for a check-up, but Mr. Pei seemed to have no sense of pain.
First he asked the waiter to bring ice water, and then he carefully applied massage to the woman's red palms.
Like a loyal dog, the kind that wags its tail.
Pei Huai looked guilty, knowing that his body had been occupied by Pei Si during this period of time.
While applying massage to Xie Shizhu's palm, he softly asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Xie Shizhu was silent for a long time, looked up at Pei Huai, and nodded his head.
Yi Wei was so shocked that she forgot to blink. She frowned slightly and stared in the direction of the two people.
The people at the scene began to look at each other, wondering what was going on.
Is this a trick between young lovers?
The director's eyes changed slightly when he looked at Xie Shizhu, thinking that in order to connect with President Pei, he must let Xie Shizhu have a name in his own play.
Pei Huai doesn't like this kind of occasion very much. Usually, his secretary takes care of all the social activities for him.
But Pei Si is completely the opposite of him and really likes this feeling of extravagance and decadence.
He took Xie Shizhu's hand and stood up, wanting to take Xie Shizhu away on the pretext of having something to do.
He called the waiter over and brought a few more bottles of wine, then walked out with Xie Shizhu amid everyone's surprised looks.
As soon as the two of them went out, the director followed behind and called them.
"Mr. Pei, Ms. Xie."
Pei Huai stopped, glanced back, and gently curled his lips. He said in a friendly tone, "Director Liu, regarding the subsequent investment, my secretary will come over later and discuss it with you in detail. Is there anything else?"
The director hesitated, looked at Pei Huai and said, "Boss Pei, I think Miss Xie is very talented. I want her to audition for the female lead in this drama."
As soon as the words fell, Yi Wei, who came out of the box, heard these words and her face froze slightly.
Pei Huai remained silent, looking at Xie Shizhu, and said with a smile on his thin lips, "Do you want to go?"
Xie Shizhu glanced at Yi Wei from the corner of his eye, then quickly looked away, saying calmly, "No, let's leave this drama to Sister Yi."
After saying this, the director and Yi Wei both looked unhappy.
The director was unhappy that Xie Shizhu rejected him. After all, his role was very important and not everyone could play it.
The female lead that others were eager for was given up by Xie Shizhu.
The director quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile: "Okay, Miss Xie has a really good personality, just like what is said on the Internet, she doesn't fight or compete."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Yi Wei's face behind him.
Isn't the director implying something about her?
And it was her turn because Xie Shizhu didn't want this drama.
Xie Shizhu is just her stand-in. She is a movie queen, but she can only get the resources that Xie Shizhu doesn't want.
Yi Wei felt humiliated.
In response to the director's praise, Xie Shizhu smiled and said "thank you" before leaving with Pei Huai.

Outside.
Pei Huai opened the car door for the woman. After Xie Shizhu bent down to get in, he walked around to the driver's seat.
As soon as he sat down, the woman who was fastening her seat belt raised her eyes to his face, hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you want to apply ice to your face?"
Pei Huai touched his cheek with the back of his hand, and it still felt a little painful.
Although he didn't need to ask Xie Shizhu, he knew that Pei Si must have done something excessive, so he deserved to be beaten.
"No, it will go away soon." Pei Huai said as he started the car, "Are you going to continue recording the variety show the day after tomorrow?"
Xie Shizhu nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked Pei Huai to take him to the school gate.
Pei Huai didn't ask any questions, but worked hard as a driver and drove the car to the school gate.
Before Xie Shizhu got out of the car, he smiled at him and said, "Don't go, wait for me for a moment."
Pei Huai was slightly startled and subconsciously said "OK".
Xie Shizhu ran into the school and came out half an hour later. She was holding a laptop in her arms and quickly opened the car door and got in.
He then showed Pei Huai the files in the computer.
Pei Huai took her computer, placed the notebook flat on his knees, and gently slid his slender fingertips across the touchpad, looking carefully at the documents on it.
The words were a bit long, so he glanced at them briefly, then closed the notebook and curled his lips slightly: "What is this?"
Xie Shizhu's eyes lit up, and his tone fluctuated slightly: "This is a script written by my roommate. She is very talented. Can you invest in this drama? I think this theme is relatively novel, and the market..."
She recited the lines she had rehearsed several times to Pei Huai, but she had said less than a third of it when the man's magnetic voice interrupted her.
"good."
"Huh?" Xie Shizhu was startled. She was forced to pause and paused for a moment, her words stuck in her throat. She murmured softly, "Don't you want to analyze what to sell? This is very expensive... If the investment fails, you will lose money..."
Seeing her thinking about him, Pei Huai couldn't help but chuckle, "No, you should trust your own judgment."
The man's voice was low, clear, and had a hint of tenderness.
Although they were clearly some distance apart, his voice sounded like a whisper in her ear, with a hint of warmth.
Xie Shizhu glanced at Pei Huai's face, pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, then don't blame me if you have to pay for it later."
