12. Chapter 12 Remember from now on
However, afterwards, Xi Xiangdong asked Meng Jiao to help Pei Xiao select several sets of ready-made clothes for daily wear. When she signed the order, she saw the string of zeros at the end, and she finally felt balanced.
As for the one she was wearing, Meng Jiao said very generously: "Wear it. This is a sample of this year's new autumn and winter clothes. Just treat it as your reward for being my model."
Pei Xiao panicked: "How is this good?" It costs tens of thousands of yuan, and this season's new products have not been released yet.
Meng Jiao seemed to know her worries and patted her shoulder: "It doesn't matter, I have already registered the design patent."
After leaving the store, Xi Xiangdong had a few more handbags in the back seat of his car. Although Pei Xiao felt comfortable eating his, he still said: "Thank you."
Xi Xiangdong gave her a strange look and said nothing. The car slowly stopped in front of a Jiangnan-style courtyard.
We were originally there for dinner, but ended up having a midnight snack. I thought there weren't many restaurants still open at this time, but I didn't expect that this shop was still doing a booming business. The silk red lanterns in front of the door were reflected in the waterside pavilion, and the halo of light was rippling.
After opening the door, the waiter led them across the small bridge over the stream and came face to face with a row of private rooms, brightly lit, and it could be vaguely seen that many people were dining.
"Sit here." Xi Xiangdong reached out and took her hand, leading her to the seat next to the water and leaning on the railing.
A place like this doesn't look cheap. The waiter hung up their coats for them, poured tea for them, and then asked: "Mr. Xi, what would you like to eat?"
Xi Xiangdong's style has always been rather arbitrary. After ordering a few dishes, he told the waiter: "Keep it simple. After you finish eating, go back to bed."
Go to bed... Seeing the waiter's meaningful eyes, Pei Xiao knew that he was thinking wrong.
The dishes came out very quickly, including stir-fried flower crabs with XO sauce, scallops with scallops wrapped in scallops and seafood soup, and king oyster mushrooms in abalone sauce, along with a side of stir-fried vegetables and a large bowl of seafood risotto. They are all home-cooked dishes, but they are better than cooking.
It's so exquisite, the seafood rice is full of ingredients, and it's so fresh that she can eat it quickly
She swallowed all her tongue and was very hungry, so Pei Xiao ate a whole big bowl by herself. Finally, she stroked her round belly and praised, "This food is really good." Regardless of the good environment, she liked it.
I didn’t know that such a place existed in the imperial capital.
Xi Xiangdong placed his chopsticks on the cloisonné chopstick holder, took a sip of white tea. After get off work, he changed into a heather gray wool cardigan, revealing a light gray shirt collar, cuffs rolled loosely to his elbows, and a pair of platinum The cufflinks sparkle.
Elegant in manners, high-end in taste, low-key yet domineering, this man simply exudes fatal temptation. It is strange to say that she, an orphan, has the opportunity to meet someone as noble as him, even if she was a powerful figure in the past.
A beautiful lady, Xi Xiangdong doesn't seem to be a person who is greedy for beauty.
Just when Pei Xiao was in a daze, Xi Xiangdong put down his cup, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you seen enough?"
Pei Xiao was startled and quickly looked away, making excuses to cover up: "I just want to take a closer look and see if I can recall some of our past memories from your face."
Xi Xiangdong's reaction was very cold: "It doesn't matter if you forget me, just remember me from now on."
Of course, you are my bread and butter now. Pei Xiao whispered in her heart. Unexpectedly, Xi Xiangdong suddenly stretched out his hand to her face. Pei Xiao's heart skipped a beat and she watched helplessly as he used his fingers to pick off the lipstick from the corner of her mouth.
A grain of rice, and then handed her the napkin: "Wipe it."
