The next day, Yan Qiao prepared to visit Yan Yaoyao's home.
"How's this dress?" Yan Qiao twirled in front of the mirror.
Pei Jingzhan raised an eyebrow. "Not bad."
Yan Qiao pouted, "Can you even speak more than five words?"
Pei Jingzhan put away the tablet and looked up at her.
"Let me remind you, this is already the fifth outfit you've changed into."
Yesterday I was wearing a hoodie and jeans to someone's house, but today I'm acting like I'm attending some important banquet.
Yan Qiao: "...You don't understand, we're going to Yan Yaoyao's house today."
I'd rather not steam buns than lose face.
Pei Jingzhan sighed, "In that case, let's go."
Yan Qiao asked in surprise, "Where are we going? I haven't picked out any clothes yet."
"I'll help you with your hair and makeup."
Yan Qiao: "...Isn't that unnecessary?"
Pei Jingzhan stood up. "I'm afraid of being tormented by you again."
Yan Qiao looks good in everything, yet she's so conflicted about it.
It almost gave him a hard time making a decision.
With a professional stylist personally selecting the pieces, Yan Qiao will no longer hesitate.
I've chosen my clothes and done my hair, but I'm still missing some jewelry.
"three……"
Pei Jingzhan lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and the words he was about to say to the stylist were abruptly changed.
"Sir, we don't have any jewelry on hand. It might be too late to borrow some from the brand now."
Pei Jingzhan said, "You don't need to worry about that."
Yan Qiao thought it was fine as it was; wearing ridiculously expensive jewelry would only make her feel it was too extravagant.
But as soon as he got in the car, Pei Jingzhan produced a set of UJ sapphire jewelry from who-knows-where.
Yan Qiao didn't have her ears pierced, so she couldn't wear earrings.
"The diamonds on this are so bright they could blind a dog."
The entire jewelry set screams one word: expensive!
Pei Jingzhan grabbed her wrist and put a bracelet studded with sapphires and diamonds on her wrist.
"We're going to dazzle their eyes."
Yan Qiaobai, although thin, is not thin in a bony way; her figure is more plump and full.
Even her hands and feet are plump and beautiful.
After putting the jewelry on Yan Qiao, he didn't linger and quickly withdrew.
He looked down at his fingers and gently stroked them.
Just as he expected, it felt warm and smooth to the touch, even whiter than tofu.
Yan Qiao looked at herself in the mirror and thought, "This set of jewelry must be expensive."
She didn't know much about diamonds, only that the almost blindingly bright diamond bracelet and necklace were quite heavy, and that their color and cut made them look expensive.
Pei Jingzhan said, "It's alright, I got it from home."
Anyway, the price won't be less than eight figures.
Yan Qiao clicked her tongue. "Didn't your family go bankrupt?"
Pei Jingzhan chuckled, "Have you ever heard the saying, 'Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse'?"
Yan glanced at him and said, "So you're saying your camel is bigger than mine?"
Pei Jingzhan smiled, clearly in a good mood.
"No, you're the boss."
The two went straight to the Yan family's house, parked the car, and saw Jin Lu get out of the car with them.
Jin Lu glanced at Pei Jingzhan. He was wearing a mask, and apart from his noble demeanor, she couldn't tell his identity.
"Yan Qiao, I'm so sorry about yesterday."
In Yan Qiao's eyes, this apology lacked sincerity.
Yan Qiao nodded slightly, "Anyway, your husband has already decided to compensate you, and the house has been returned, so everything is even."
As for the fact that she lied to him and Weng Yun about going to accompany them for drinks, it can't be erased with just an apology.
Jin Lu gave an awkward smile and followed Yan Qiao, chatting with her.
"You and Third Master seem to have a good relationship."
Yan glanced at her, "Who?"
"Third Master Pei, because of your matter, he even canceled his cooperation with Huaxing."
Yan Qiao gave an "oh," though she was actually a little confused.
"He turned down the collaboration, not because of me."
Jin Lu: "Then why?"
Yan Qiao looked at her with a puzzled expression and said the truth: "Of course it's because you people have bad character."
[Hahaha, Yan Qiao is really an honest person.]
Jin Lu's face turned black; it's hilarious.
[Is the guy wearing a mask next to Yan Qiao the cameraman? Even though his face isn't shown, he looks so handsome!]
A few years ago, during the mask-wearing era, there were plenty of handsome men; it's only after the masks were removed that we realized how incredibly diverse and unattractive they were.
Jin Lu was still unwilling to give up. She believed that Yan Qiao was hiding her relationship with Master Pei.
"Yan Qiao, you have a good relationship with Third Master, please put in a good word for us."
Yan Qiao paused in her steps. "Let me emphasize again, I am not familiar with Third Master Pei. Not only am I not familiar with him, I have never even met him."
Jin Lu looked at her in surprise; Yan Qiao's words didn't seem like a lie.
But that shouldn't be the case.
During yesterday's phone call, Li Qiao clearly stated that the reason Master Pei was angry was because of Yan Qiao.
Jin Lu smiled and said, "I was being presumptuous."
The two waited at the door, and then the servant came to open it.
Yan Yaoyao didn't come out; instead, she waited for them in the living room.
It was common knowledge that she and Yan Qiao had a feud.
But when facing the camera, one still has to maintain appearances.
"Jin Lu, Yan Qiao, welcome to my home."
Jin Lu smiled and nodded, "Hello Yao Yao, this is a gift for you."
Yan Yaoyao smiled and accepted it, "Thank you."
After putting the gifts away, she looked at Yan Qiao.
Yan Qiao stood in front of Pei Jingzhan, trying to block her scrutinizing gaze.
"What are you looking at? You don't expect me to give you a gift, do you?"
Yan Yaoyao tugged at the corner of her lips, her expression somewhat cold.
"No, I'm just curious. You take him everywhere you go. Could he really be your boyfriend?"
Jin Lu turned around and glanced at the man with a powerful aura.
She smiled. "Yan Qiao, is this really your boyfriend?"
Yan Qiao said, "No, he's the cameraman I hired."
Jin Lu's interest vanished immediately. "The cameraman."
He's just someone who works for others.
But this person looks very mysterious and has a strong presence, unlike someone who works for a living.
Yan Qiao scoffed, "Even a rabbit won't eat the grass near its burrow. Of all people to fancy, why do you like someone who's too shy to show their face on camera?"
Yan Qiao ignored her and instead pulled Pei Jingzhan to sit down.
"We've been here so long, isn't tea served?"
Yan Yaoyao looked disdainful. Since her reputation was already like this, she didn't need to care too much about what netizens thought.
"Don't rush to change the subject. You said before that you wanted to take the college entrance exam this year. Now that you're dating, doesn't that count as puppy love? Do your parents approve of you being with a cameraman? He's older than you, right? How much older?"
Yan Yaoyao is always like this. She thinks she has stepped on Yan Qiao's sore spot, and she won't be satisfied until she has stepped on it a few more times.
Yan Qiao looked up at her. "Finished asking? It's my turn to ask. Isn't your grandma home? I seem to remember that when you stole her safe last time, wasn't she discharged from the hospital? I remember she even called the police. If it weren't for the fact that you're her granddaughter, she would definitely have sent you to jail, right?"
This embarrassing secret was revealed by Yan Qiao on camera.
Even though Yan Yaoyao has a thick skin, she still felt like her face was being pricked with needles.
She bit her lip in exasperation, "I didn't do anything like that! Don't frame me!"
When Yan Qiao saw the tea being served, she picked it up and slowly took a sip.
"The police station has a record of it, how could I wrong you? Oh dear, I almost forgot we're still recording a show, I'm so sorry, just pretend I was talking nonsense." Yan Qiao lightly slapped her mouth twice.
Jin Lu: "..."
Why did you provoke her?
