Zhao Jianing’s eyes were cold. “You can leave.”

The reception room became quiet.

Pei Yin came back to her senses. So…… that’s all it took to get rid of him?

That loser didn’t gain any face.

Guessing what the other party was thinking, Zhao Jianing turned her head and said, “I don’t need to explain to him. Educating him is a matter for your elders and has nothing to do with me.”

Pei Yin said quietly: “……I know.”

Zhao Jianing smiled and eased up her tone, “I know you’ve worked very hard on this project. I just want to teach those people a lesson so that your efforts will not go to waste. If you’re not in a hurry, why don’t we wait and see what happens in two days?”

Pei Yin : “……Of course, I’ll listen to you.”

She now has great admiration for the other party!

Zhao Jianing nodded.

She had seen this kind of things a lot. Although the equality of men and women had been advocated and had become the general trend for more than a hundred years, the patriarchal society had been in operation for thousands of years, so the whole society was still biased towards patriarchy.

It wasn’t uncommon to see women from patrilineal companies perform very well in order to win unfair rights.

The typical case was that in all probability, the company’s management were male.

In her family, no matter how hard she tried, she was still not as good as her two good-for-nothing brothers.

The little bastard just now, of course, was not against the matter of ‘chasing stars’, but Pei Yin herself was very good. There was nothing he could criticize her for except chasing stars.

That’s why he said those ridiculous and shallow words.

After all, a woman’s appearance, figure, marriage, and hobbies could be places one could attack.

In order to avoid this situation, many female executives would cut their hair short and dress tough to prove that they were not inferior to men.

Pei Yin said carefully, “……So you are President Zhao.”

Zhao Jianing: “I tried to warn you.”

Pei Yin: “I’m not blaming you. I’m just too stupid to think of it.”

Indeed, she mentioned that she has two older brothers last time……

The implication was already obvious, but she was the one who didn’t think in that direction.

A week later.

Pei Yin sat in the director’s office, looking at the plan on the table.

She must work harder.

The goddess was the light that illuminates her path, and one day, she would also be the light that illuminates others.

———

Last time, the Lu family’s helper asked for leave to attend her daughter’s wedding.

Today, she asked for leave to take care of her daughter’s confinement, saying that she wasn’t at ease letting other people take care of the latter.

Lu Buyu: “It’s only been half a year, why did she already give birth?”

The timing doesn’t match. Was it premature birth?

Lu Wan glanced at the dummy beside her and said in a low voice, “You can get married when you’re expecting.”

Aunt Zhao nodded, “It’s still Miss who’s smart. My daughter and son-in-law got engaged last year but the wedding was brought forward because of the baby.”

Lu Buyu: “……”

Well, it turned out to be like this.

Aunt Wang has worked for the Lu family for ten years and now wanted to ask for a half month leave. Zhao Jianing agreed and gave a red envelope for the newborn.

When the person left, she was going to contact the housekeeping company to send another person over for this coming half a month.

Lu Bainian thought for a while and said, “I think it’s better not to. We will still have to familiarize ourselves with the new aunt. Half a month will pass quickly and we’re not even at home till the afternoon. For dinner, I can try to make it.”

Ten minutes later, the three of them set off from home.

Lu Buyu wore sunglasses and a hat to avoid being recognized and causing a commotion.

It was Lu Bainian’s first visit to the market and was very excited. This was a very meaningful family activity! A subject that has never been conducted before!

He would prepare a table of dishes to surprise his wife.

Lu Bainian was well organized. Although it was his first time to go to the market, he had made a list.

If he buys according to the list, there would be no mistakes or omissions.

Lu Wan: “……”

She better not expect too much.

The market they went to was small in scale and mainly nearby residents came to buy food.

Most of them were housewives, so no one recognizes Lu Buyu, who was wearing sunglasses, for the time being.

Lu Bainian said excitedly, “We need a total of 27 dishes for three days. How about we split up?”

Lu Buyu: “En. It’s more efficient.”

“……Do whatever you want.”

Would this two be okay? Lu Wan’s mind turned. They would mostly…… buy things with less scale so there should be no major problems.

She came to buy the meat. Most of the products here were very fresh and the other two could play however they want.

The owner of the tomato stall kept staring at Lu Buyu. He said hesitantly, “I think you look familiar. You look like a celebrity.”

Lu Wan said smoothly, “Oh, you mean Lu Buyu? He doesn’t look like this originally. He had his nose done to look exactly like Lu Buyu. The effect is good, right?”

Stall owner: “What’d I say?! Hehe, I actually want to look like Lu Buyu too! Seeing that you look like my wife’s idol, I’ll give you two tomatoes for free.”

Lu Buyu: “……”

What the heck is this?

Lu Wan raised her eyebrows. This guy was still a lady-killer.

Not bad. The lady-killer got two tomatoes with his white face, so it’s worth a lot.
