Chapter 141: Chapter 141: Being Miss Shen’s Assistant.
Being alone was unavoidable, since Shen Zhiyi had work. She nodded with a smile and boldly stroked Chairman Pei’s head.
"Yes, it’s tough on Mr. Pei."
Pei Yu then reached for her hand that rested on top of his head, contemplating briefly, "Miss Shen, are you in need of an assistant?"
Shen Zhiyi paused, catching his drift, and held back a laugh, "Mr. Pei is too expensive, I can’t afford him."
Sometimes, she found him amusingly contradictory: his expression was cool and indifferent, but all his actions were clingy, and she was out of her depth.
"It’s for free," Pei Yu kissed her wrist, "Miss Shen can repay me in kind."
"Hey," said the speaker in all earnestness, but the listener felt embarrassed for him. Shen Zhiyi pulled her hand away, forbidding him from touching her, "No way."
She wasn’t going to fall for his trick.
She pretended to leave, but this time he grabbed her waist. With a little force from Pei Yu, she was pulled back several steps until she fell onto his lap, tightly clutched by him.
"Don’t want it even for free?"
Shen Zhiyi feigned disinterest, "No, I am not lacking an assistant."
"Miss Shen, please," Pei Yu looked exceptionally docile with lowered eyes. He dragged out his tones, sounding quite pitiful, "Give me a job."
Shen Zhiyi couldn’t keep up her act, eyes half-mooned, giggling at his feigned conduct, "Are you really going to come with me?"
"Mm," Pei Yu was serious, "I’ll be your assistant."
Imagine Pei Yu, who was used to being pampered, being her assistant? Shen Zhiyi could not envision the scenario.
She still hesitated, "I might not have time to look after you—"
What if something happened, leaving Chairman Pei to take the heat?
"It’s okay," sensing she was softening, it was the perfect moment to persist, Pei Yu softened his tone, "I’ll behave, so you don’t need to worry."
He was just accompanying his wife at work; there wouldn’t be any trouble.
"Who’s worrying about you," Shen Zhiyi retorted softly, yet she was persuaded, "Then cover your face, and don’t let anyone see you."
Better safe than sorry if acquaintances recognized him. Besides, if photos got out showing Chairman Pei working as her assistant, an unknown number of people might talk behind her back.
Not to mention, dealing with just Qin Fang would be tough enough, let alone risking being tagged with a not-so-nice label of "abusing Brother Pei."
With his purpose of accompanying his wife at work achieved, Pei Yu had no objections and nodded happily, "Okay."
So when Xiaodong came to drive Shen Zhiyi to the makeup artist studio, he saw a tall man following by her side, clad in a black casual outfit, with a baseball cap and a mask covering most of his face, only revealing the contours of his eyes and brows when he looked up.
Xiaodong shivered, "Si-Sister-in-law?"
Normally seeing Pei Yu, he was dressed impeccably from top to bottom, which unconsciously made people maintain their distance. This was the first time Xiaodong had seen him dressed so casually yet still exuding a commanding presence.
Pei Yu opened the car door and glanced at the driver’s seat, "What did you call me?"
Xiaodong: "Er, Chairman Pei?"
Oops, just accidentally showed off in front of the big boss himself.
Pei Yu spoke indifferently, "I didn’t ask you to change how you address me."
He was just a bit surprised; "Sister-in-law" was a very unfamiliar title for him.
Quick on his feet, Xiaodong loudly greeted, "Good afternoon, Sister Zhiyi, good afternoon, Brother-in-law!"
Shen Zhiyi: "...keep your voice down."
It was a bit embarrassing.
"Sister," Xiaodong cautiously started the car, glad her driving skills were passable, else she would have had to call a professional driver to take her place, "Is brother-in-law coming along too?"
From the looks of it, it seemed he intended to accompany them.
"Yes," Shen Zhiyi sighed, "Just think of him as my assistant, your colleague."
Xiaodong: "..."
How could she dare!
Regardless of whether she dared or not, Pei Yu himself was quite composed. After arriving at the studio, he sat down on the sofa and watched Shen Zhiyi put on her makeup.
The real assistant, Xiaodong, had many things to do. She first carefully took out the haute couture dress borrowed for the event, checked it thoroughly, and then contacted the renowned photographer specially invited for this red carpet event to confirm the meeting time. Upon finding out that the schedule had been changed, she quickly liaised with the organizers.
All through, Pei Yu’s gaze never left Shen Zhiyi.
The makeup artist styled Shen Zhiyi’s long hair up and whispered in her ear, "Who is this?"
Shen Zhiyi stayed silent for a moment, "My assistant."
Makeup Artist: "?"
Whose assistant behaves like royalty, could Xiaodong be the fake assistant?
Nearly two hours later, Shen Zhiyi needed to change her dress. The first gown she wore for the red carpet had a billowy skirt, which was astonishingly long without hoop support. Because the skirt was embellished with hundreds of tiny diamonds, it was also very heavy, and several people helped her hold up the skirt. Seeing that the male assistant still hadn’t moved, the makeup artist spoke up, "Hey, come help out a bit."
Shen Zhiyi, who had gone into the changing room already, poked her head out upon hearing this. Pei Yu took steps forward and took the skirt from the makeup artist’s hands, then walked into the changing room without waiting for others to react, and the door closed.
The makeup artists among others: "...?"
After a few minutes, seeing no one being kicked out, the makeup artist understood.
Alright, he had said that man definitely wasn’t a small assistant. Recalling past events Shen Zhiyi had openly responded to, it must be that this man was the individual involved.
"What are you doing in here?"
Shen Zhiyi was equally startled by Pei Yu’s sudden presence, wondering how he followed her into the changing room.
"Isn’t it to help you?" Pei Yu held the gown, "It’s very heavy, you couldn’t wear it on your own."
Such gowns indeed required assistance to put on and take off. However, there were several other girls outside; there was no need for him.
"Go out and let the others come in to help me."
Claiming to be her assistant, yet what kind of male assistant helps a female celebrity with her gown? Shen Zhiyi seriously suspected he did it on purpose.
"Am I not an assistant?" Pei Yu had a solid reason, "It’s appropriate for me to serve you."
"You..." Shen Zhiyi, whether embarrassed or angry, had her face turn red, "Could you please not misuse words?"
He always managed to make quite a normal matter sound infinitely suggestive, and yet his expression was indifferent and serious, making Shen Zhiyi feel as if thinking differently was her fault.
That was infuriating.
"Next time for sure," Pei Yu’s attitude in admitting fault was always very good, whether or not he changed was another matter, "Do you want me to help you undress?"
His nonsensical remarks had already diverted Shen Zhiyi’s attention, clearing her mind of the thought to stop his reckless talking and forgetting that she still needed to drive him out of the changing room.
She was extremely helpless, "Turn around."
Even if they had been in close quarters with no clothes on before, undressing in front of him like this was beyond what Shen Zhiyi could psychologically endure.
Pei Yu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Alright."
He was the assistant, after all; he should listen to her commands.
