After leaving the ward, Qiao Ruoxi wanted to pull her hand away, but found that she couldn't break free.
"My mother's people are around." Pei Yaozhou's voice sounded.
Qiao Ruoxi looked around and didn't find anything unusual, so she looked at the man in the wheelchair.
Pei Yaozhou looked serious and didn't look like he was lying.
Due to the terms of the agreement, Qiao Ruoxi had no choice but to continue walking out while holding hands.
"No one is here, the third brother just wants to hold your hand! Listen to me, he just wants to hold your hand!"
The gourd on Qiao Ruoxi's waist moved, making a sound that only Qiao Ruoxi could hear.
The girl narrowed her eyes. She didn't expect Pei Yaori to be such a chatterbox.
The awkward atmosphere continued in the car, and Pei Yaozhou finally let go.
Qiao Ruoxi rubbed her arms which were stiff and a little sore. She didn't expect that holding hands was such a physical task.
As she was thinking this, her eyes naturally fell on the jade bracelet given to her by Old Lady Pei.
She took off the jade bracelet and handed it to Pei Yaozhou beside her: "Master Pei, this jade bracelet is too valuable, you should keep it."
Pei Yaozhou glanced at the jade bracelet but didn't reach out to take it. He said lightly, "This jade bracelet is a family heirloom of the Pei family. My grandmother put it on my mother herself, and she never took it off again."
"Not only that, I remember that woman tried every possible means to get this heirloom jade bracelet, but my mother refused to give it to her. I was quite angry at that time, but now I think my mother was wise!" Pei Yaori added.
Qiao Ruoxi was slightly stunned. She had thought that the jade bracelet had an extraordinary origin, but she had not expected it to have such a meaning. This made it even more difficult for her to accept it.
Seeing that Pei Yaozhou still didn't move, Qiao Ruoxi had no choice but to grab Pei Yaozhou's hand and force the jade bracelet into Pei Yaozhou's palm.
Unexpectedly, when Qiao Ruoxi was about to retract her hand, Pei Yaozhou grabbed it, and the jade bracelet returned to her slender wrist again.
Qiao Ruoxi: ...
"Master Pei, this is your Pei family's heirloom. How can I accept it?"
Pei Yaozhou raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm going to give my mother acupuncture next week. How are you going to explain the jade bracelet to her?"
Qiao Ruoxi was stunned, but she didn't think too much about it.
The agreement required her to cooperate with Pei Yaozhou and act well in front of his family. If Old Mrs. Pei found out that the jade bracelet was missing, she would indeed be suspicious.
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Ruoxi had no choice but to compromise: "Okay, I'll keep this jade bracelet temporarily. When the contract expires, I will definitely return it in its original condition. If you're still worried, we can sign another agreement."
"No need." Pei Yaozhou only said these two words and narrowed his eyes, obviously unwilling to continue this topic.
"Can't you see? He wants to seduce you. He wants you to be his wife. Third brother, third brother, you have come to this day!" Pei Yaori laughed.
Qiao Ruoxi's ears hurt, and she suddenly regretted agreeing to help this man realize his wish.
Recalling what happened in the ward today, Qiao Ruoxi decided to confirm one thing with Pei Yaozhou: "Today in the hospital, you made our relationship public in front of so many people. Is that really okay?"
Pei Yaozhou's eyes slightly opened, his expression slightly lazy. "They don't dare to go out and say anything. Even if they did, no one would believe it. Even if someone did believe it, it would eventually be handled by Pei's public relations. Old news will always be covered by new news."
Qiao Ruoxi nodded and felt relieved.
"Are you so afraid of exposing our relationship?" Pei Yaozhou's voice suddenly rang out.
Qiao Ruoxi nodded: "Well, I don't like to break my promises."
She is a man of her word and always keeps her promises to others, including her agreement with Pei Yaozhou.
If there was only one time she broke her promise, it was when she failed to help the young emperor secure the throne in her previous life.
Pei Yaozhou tilted his head to look at Qiao Ruoxi for a moment, then turned back and spoke in a low voice, "Did Taoist Wuya call you Sect Leader?"
"He's jealous, he's jealous!" Pei Yaori's devilish voice pierced his ears.
Qiao Ruoxi's eyebrows twitched.
"It was a coincidence that Wuya recognized me as the head of Yuanshan Sect. I'm sorry, I can't reveal anything else for now."
If she said too much, it would easily expose her identity as a time traveler.
Pei Yaozhou didn't ask any more questions. He took out his cell phone and fiddled with it.
"Are you free tomorrow? Your weaving method is very effective and will soon be put into production. Would you like to go and see it in person?" Pei Yaozhou pulled up a photo and handed it to Qiao Ruoxi. The photo showed the experimental hand-woven cloth.
Pei Yaori: "He wants to date you, he wants to date you!"
Qiao Ruoxi couldn't bear it any longer, so she drew a talisman with her fingertips and slapped it on the gourd.
Suddenly the world became quiet.
"Okay, I'm free tomorrow!" Qiao Ruoxi agreed. She was indeed very curious. She didn't expect that this kind of fabric could be produced by machine.
Pei Yaozhou raised the corners of his lips slightly and closed his eyes again.
the next day.
Pei Yaozhou and Qiao Ruoxi went to the factory after breakfast. Ren Quan had been waiting in the factory for a long time. When he saw them, he immediately greeted them with a smile.
"Master San, Madam, you came at the perfect time! The first batch of woven cloth has just been produced!"
Qiao Ruoxi looked surprised: "Let's go and take a look!"
Without waiting for Pei Yaozhou to react, Qiao Ruoxi pushed his wheelchair and trotted into the factory.
Pei Yaozhou leaned back due to inertia. He took a deep breath and held the armrest of the wheelchair tightly.
Ren Quan stood there in a daze.
Good fellow! The only person in the world who dared to push his Third Master's wheelchair was probably his Third Master's wife. No one else in the world had the courage to do that!
Madam is so amazing!
The workshop was filled with excited laughter, and everyone was ecstatic when they saw Mr. Pei San coming.
I didn't expect Mr. Pei San to be so dedicated that he would come to inspect the factory in person.
The director of the textile factory held up the newly woven satin and excitedly introduced it: "Look, Third Master, this satin is almost indistinguishable from hand-woven ones. It's even better than the water-gloss satin Robert gave us. It's simply the perfect fabric!"
Pei Yao slowed his heartbeat and took the satin.
Sure enough, it is slightly better than water-lustrous satin in terms of breathability and thinness.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Qiao Ruoxi looking at him expectantly, like a curious kitten who wanted to stretch out its claws but didn't dare, which made people laugh.
Pei Yaozhou pressed the corners of his lips and handed the satin to Qiao Ruoxi: "Take a look."
The director of the textile factory did not notice the subtle interaction between them. He was still immersed in joy, covering his chest and sighing.
"The person who can weave this kind of fabric is truly amazing. If I were lucky enough to meet her, I would definitely kowtow to her in person!"
"Go ahead." Pei Yaozhou raised his eyebrows.
The director of the textile factory was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"
Pei Yaozhou pointed at Qiao Ruoxi behind him and said, "She's the person you're looking for. You can call her Mrs. Pei."
Qiao Ruoxi:?
