Going to work on Monday morning, Zhou Ling wore a medical mask and headed all the way to the No. 2 laboratory. When he saw Duan Shutong in front of the laboratory bench, his eyes were full of surprise and excitement.
She took off the mask, her eyes bent into crescents, "Director Duan, look at my face!"
Duan Shutong turned his head when he heard the words, his eyes lingered on her face for a moment, he didn't seem too surprised, he nodded slightly and said: "Keep going, it will get better and better in the future."
If it weren't for the current situation, he could actually make a skin care product for Zhou Ling.
Everyone's skin is different, and the one that suits you is the best.
Zhou Ling nodded, her face full of admiration, "You are amazing! At this speed, my face will be much better in a week."
Duan Shutong thought for a while, "Then I will submit the report on Friday."
Only when there is strong evidence, Zhai Jun will see the potential value of this new product, and it will be possible to increase investment and publicity.
In the next few days, Duan Shutong finished the finishing work and made a research plan for the next product.
Until Thursday night, he suddenly received a call from Pei Ruowei's best friend Sun Qi.
"Master Duan, may I ask if Weiwei went to see you?" The girl's voice trembled slightly.
Duan Shutong: "No. What happened?"
Sun Qi burst into tears, "She's gone, I don't know where she went, she's been in a bad mood these days, woo..."
"Don't cry, tell me clearly. When did you find out she was missing? What did she bring?"
Pei Ruowei and Sun Qi are college roommates, they rent together after graduation, and they are very close.
Sun Qi knew that Duan Shutong liked Pei Ruowei, and that Duan Shutong had a more friendly personality than Li Xiao, so when something happened, she immediately asked Duan Shutong for help.
Duan Shutong naturally wouldn't sit idly by, his composure infected Sun Qi and made her gradually regain her sanity.
"When I got off work at night, she first transferred the rent for the remaining months, and then sent me a message, saying that she was not staying in Yanshi anymore, and she would not be at home after I went back."
Duan Shutong: "Before this, was there anything unusual about her?"
"Let's think about it." Sun Qi's voice trembled a little, "Oh, by the way, she planned to find another job after resigning from Li's company, but she didn't get an interview. I also heard her call with President Li. Some are fierce and fierce. Also, she was not feeling well the day before yesterday, and she vomited badly. She went to the hospital, and something was wrong after she came back from the hospital... "
While Sun Qi was still falling out, Duan Shutong frowned tightly.
The original book only mentioned once that the heroine vomited badly, and after going to the hospital for an examination, she found out that she was pregnant.
He couldn't remember exactly when the pregnancy happened. Could it be that Pei Ruowei was already pregnant
In the original book, the heroine found out that she was pregnant before marriage, and she was psychologically shocked, so she sought help from the second male lead. At that time, she and the heroine were in love with each other. Although they were afraid, they were more looking forward to a new life.
It's different now. She left the male lead, and maybe her failure to find a job is also related to the male lead. Under such circumstances, she must not be able to bear the news of her pregnancy.
It is understandable to choose to leave the original residence for a new environment.
In any case, Duan Shutong couldn't just stand by and watch a pregnant woman go out alone.
"Where is her hometown?"
Sun Qi was stunned, "I'm not sure, I heard her mention it before, it seems to be in Linnan Province, I don't remember the specific place."
"Well, I see, I'll check."
After hanging up the phone, Duan Shutong immediately sent a message to Pei Ruowei: I encountered a problem at work and would like to ask for advice.
He thought that the heroine was kind-hearted, maybe she would come back when she saw it.
Originally, she didn't hold out much hope, but she didn't expect that Pei Ruowei would actually come back.
Pei Ruowei: Tell me.
Duan Shutong: The company has recently developed a new product. I think the previous packaging is not suitable. You are a designer. Can you help me think about it
Pei Ruowei: What product packaging
She didn't know that Duan Shutong worked in Chunqiu Hall. To be honest, she didn't have an in-depth understanding of Duan's, and few people knew about the existence of Chunqiu Hall.
Duan Shutong: skin care products.
Pei Ruowei: This needs to be designed according to the efficacy of the product and other aspects.
Duan Shutong: I'll send some samples and manuals over, please help me, the designers here can't make what I want at all, if the delay continues, the launch of new products will have to be delayed.
This is of course nonsense, but it works as long as it works.
Pei Ruowei is not a person who is good at rejecting others, he might be able to get her current address by talking about himself so badly.
After a while, Pei Ruowei replied: "No need to send it over, I'm fine, just give me the specific address, I'll go and have a look."
Duan Shutong breathed a sigh of relief, that's okay, just afraid that she won't be able to think about it for a while, and she will stay away from all familiar people or things.
Duan Shutong: Thank you so much! The address is Chunqiu Hall, Shanquan County, Linnan Province.
Pei Ruowei paused for a while before replying: Okay, I'll be there tomorrow afternoon.
With her words, Duan Shutong felt relieved.
Unexpectedly, the plan could not keep up with the changes, Duan Shutong received a call for help from Pei Ruowei just after lunch the next day.
He rushed over to Pei Ruowei's address. It turned out that Pei Ruowei also lived in Shanquan County. She rented a room temporarily. The house was old and the exterior walls were mottled.
Duan Shutong came downstairs and saw a luxury car.
The driver in the luxury car looked familiar. He and the driver looked at each other, and under the driver's shocked gaze, he stepped up the stairs.
It wasn't until his figure disappeared that the driver remembered to call Li Xiao, but it was too late.
Just as Li Xiao, who was blocking Pei Ruowei's door, picked up the phone, a figure appeared from the stairs, wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, white sneakers were clean.
Stepping on the dirty corridor, there is a feeling of being desecrated.
After seeing the face clearly, his expression changed, and he immediately frowned and growled: "Duan Shutong, you are so shameless!"
Duan Shutong looked Li Xiao from top to bottom, seeing him in a suit and leather shoes, he couldn't help asking: "Aren't you hot?"
Li Xiao: Huh
Before he could continue to attack, Duan Shutong said again: "Go ahead and talk about something, it's too stuffy here."
Li Xiao really couldn't stand it, he followed Duan Shutong and said bitterly: "You and Xi Duan are really shameless, you tricked Ruowei into this kind of place, you think I can't find it?"
Duan Shutong couldn't help but look back at him, this man is extremely handsome, with vigorous brows and eyes, he looks talented, but there are a lot of impurities in his mind.
"In terms of seniority, you should call President Xi an uncle; in terms of seniority, he is your senior. Calling him by his first name is the upbringing of President Li?"
Li Xiao almost couldn't catch his breath, why didn't he find Duan Shutong so eloquent before
"Miss Pei has already broken up with you, and you are still so clumsy that you even used the harmful trick of blocking the door. If you go further, are you going to break into the residence illegally?"
Li Xiao: "... What nonsense are you talking about! I'm not messing around, she is my woman, what's wrong with me coming to pick her up?"
Duan Shutong's feet slipped and almost fell down the stairs, what the hell is "my woman"!
After An An walked out of the corridor, he continued: "Are there many girls who like you?"
Li Xiao was stunned, is this a competition of charm? Answer immediately: "Of course!"
There was some pride in his eyes.
He knew that in the eyes of others, he was much more popular as the heir of the Li family than the playboy of the Duan family.
On this point, Duan Shutong will never be able to compare with him.
Duan Shutong didn't compete with him, and said bluntly: "There are so many girls who like you, if each of them wants to have you, and a group of people block your gate every day, would you like it?"
"They can't get in at all!" Li Xiao gave him a white look.
Do you think the security guards in the community are vegetarians
Duan Shutong smiled, "What about Miss Lin Manman?"
Li Xiao instantly misfired.
Lin Manman is his fiancée, if his fiancée cannot enter his house, it will be a joke in the circle.
"Lin Manman is your fiancée, she definitely has more rights to find you, and you don't even want to see her. But now, you and Miss Pei are nothing, you just block people's doors, are you guilty?"
It's selfish and double standard.
"She's mine! Can't I take her back?" Li Xiao insisted.
Duan Shutong nodded, quickly dialed Lin Manman's phone number, and said in front of Li Xiao: "Miss Lin, Li Xiao was injured in Linnan Province, can you come over?"
Li Xiao reached out to snatch his phone, "Why did you let her come over! I'm not hurt!"
Duan Shutong avoided speaking, but Lin Manman on the other end of the phone said: "You are my fiance, of course I will go if you are injured. Where is the injury? Is it serious?"
Li Xiao: "..." I was too angry to speak.
The driver who listened to the whole journey trembled.
Duan Shutong smiled, "He's out of his mind, and the county's medical equipment can't keep up. It's better to go back to Yan City for treatment."
Lin Manman: "Then I'm leaving now."
Li Xiao hurriedly said loudly: "No need to come here, I'll let Xiao Wang take me back!"
He winked at Duan Shutong, don't let Lin Manman come over, he is really afraid of her entanglement.
Duan Shutong pointed to the car with stern eyebrows, "Get up immediately and drive to Yanshi."
Since there was no way to stop Lin Manman from coming, Li Xiao could only stare bitterly at Duan Shutong as he got into the car.
After the car drove out of the community, Duan Shutong stood in the same place and pondered for a while, then sent a WeChat message to Pei Ruowei: You are not safe here, if Li Xiao can come for the first time, he can come for the second time, how about another place
Pei Ruowei: He left
Duan Shutong: I'm leaving for now.
Pei Ruowei: Then I'll go down now and help you solve the matter first.
Soon, Pei Ruowei walked down the stairs slowly, taking every step carefully. She wore a simple ponytail and an ankle-length skirt, looking tall and thin.
The clear eyebrows and eyes were stained with a touch of melancholy, and the skin glowed like pearls in the sun.
She looks like a little fairy, no wonder Li Xiao likes it.
When she saw Duan Shutong, she was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled lightly, "You have changed a lot."
Not only the appearance, but also the temperament and eyes.
Duan Shutong also smiled, "Concentrate on your career now, you must help me this time."
Pei Ruowei nodded, and gave him another vaccination: "I may not be able to design the effect you want, I can only try it."
Duan Shutong didn't think so.
In the original book, Pei Ruowei is very talented in design. Although she has never dabbled in the appearance design of skin care products, it is basically not difficult for her.
Duan Shutong is very confident about this.
"It's okay." He led Pei Ruowei towards Chunqiu Hall, "Since you left the Li family, do you plan to find another job?"
Pei Ruowei lowered her head and smiled wryly: "Let's talk about it."
Many companies in Yan City were greeted by Mrs. Li and were not allowed to hire her. She had no choice but to hide in her hometown for the time being and relax by the way.
It would be great if you can find a stable job.
"If you don't dislike it, why not come to our company. I am really short of people now. You can help me when you come to our company. Our company's salary is not low, and it is close to you, so it can serve multiple purposes."
Duan Shutong really wanted to hire her, such a talent is not rare in the Li family, and receiving the Chunqiu Hall will win both birds with one stone.
He has a sincere attitude, and it can be seen that the hiring is not for emotional reasons, Pei Ruowei is also quite moved when he heard this.
It's just... She touched her abdomen, she still hasn't decided whether to keep this little life.
