“Little Yi, can you lend me some money?”
Bai Yi picked up her sister’s call in the store. Her sister’s voice was sobbing.
“What happened? Tell me slowly.”
“Nuonuo accidentally destroyed someone’s high-end clothes. I don’t know how much it will cost.”
“High-end clothes? Sis, don’t be anxious. Tell me slowly.”
Bai Ying calmed herself down and told Bai Yi what had happened.
“I don’t dare to tell your brother-in-law. If he finds out, he’ll definitely say that I didn’t raise a good child.”
Bai Yi frowned. “Sis, don’t worry. Describe the logo on the clothes to me. I’ll see if I can find out how much it is. I’ll transfer you some money later. I didn’t even give you this month’s rent.”
When Bai Ying heard Bai Yi’s words, she calmed down.
At night, Lu Qi probably did not have to work overtime and returned very early.
Bai Yi was sitting in the living room drawing. When she saw Lu Qi enter, she asked, “You don’t have to work overtime today?”
“Mm,” Lu Qi replied casually. Seeing that Bai Yi was still looking at him, he asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Do you know a clothing brand called ‘Enjiu’?”
Of course Lu Qi knew, this was a national brand under the Lu Corporation. “I know. Our company works with them.”
“How much do their sample clothes for internet celebrities usually cost?”
Lu Qi frowned. “About thirty to forty thousand. Why?”
“It’s nothing. I was just askng.” Bai Yi fell into deep thought. According to what her sister told her, the man said her sister only needed to pay about half of the money. It might only be ten or twenty thousand.
It was not much. All her savings amounted to about that.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Qi asked again when he saw her deep in thought.
“You want to buy it?”
Bai Yi shook her head and told the truth. “When my sister’s child went out to play, he accidentally destroyed a sample of someone’s clothes. She might have to compensate, but I don’t know how much.”
Lu Qi understood now. Recently, his company’s brands had indeed been looking for internet celebrities to promote.
“Let me help you ask. Coincidentally, my neighboring department is working with them. Let’s see how much it is. If your sister doesn’t have enough money, we can give her some.”
Bai Yi bit her lip. “Then I’ll have to trouble you. My sister and I will see if there’s enough money first.”
She already owed him a favor by asking him to help her find out. How could she borrow money again?
The next day, it was Luo Mu who came to give Lu Qi the price list for the new products.
Luo Mu had been Lu Qi’s good friend for many years and was in charge of this brand. The two of them did not look like a superior and his subordinate.
“Luo Mu, did someone destroy our clothes during this filming?” Lu Qi asked after hearing his report.
Luo Mu also planned to talk about this. “It’s a child. The compensation will be handled by the child’s mother. The exact amount of compensation will have to wait for you to confirm.”
“How did you know about this? Can you predict the future?” Luo Mu asked with a smile.
“The child who destroyed the clothes is my grandmother’s friend’s nephew. My grandmother told me about this yesterday.”
Lu Qi was unwilling to tell his good friend Bai Yi’s true identity. If his good friend found out that he had gotten married silently, something messy would probably happen again.
“He’s the nephew of Grandma Lu’s friend. Then I won’t charge them.” Luo Mu understood what Lu Qi meant.
“No, I mean you can just symbolically collect a few thousand yuan. If we pay all the fees, my grandmother’s friend will be embarrassed.”
“You have a point. Then let her pay 3,000 yuan.” Luo Mu nodded. “I’ll pay the rest. After all, it’s also because I didn’t get the employees to look after the costumes.”
The Luo family was also very rich, he was only doing this job because it was his hobby.
After discussing business, Luo Mu rubbed his palms in embarrassment. “Grandma Lu knows a lot of people. Can you get her to introduce a few girls to me? The family is pressing me. I have to hurry up and find a wife.”
Luo Mu and Lu Qi were the two major single men in this circle. Luo Mu was a little older than Lu Qi.
“Isn’t it easy for you to find a girlfriend? You don’t lack girls to chase after your face.”
“That’s true, but marriage doesn’t depend on looks.”
Lu Qi nodded in agreement. If a person only had beauty but had a problem with her character, she had no right to stay by his side.
