Bai Tao didn't expect that she could easily solve her ex-boyfriend's problem. On the way home, she hugged Pei Shi and kissed him: "Thank you, husband!"
Pei Shi glanced at Bai Tao and said, "That's it?"
"Um?"
Pei Shi glanced at Yuan Mu, then lowered his voice slightly: "Isn't it a bit too perfunctory?"
Well, now that the domineering president is so protective of his wife, it seems difficult to end the night without doing something.
Bai Tao was not ambiguous and immediately leaned close to the man's ear: "Then... tonight is fine."
She added: "It's about the recently unlocked dungeon scene in our CP fan comic last time... Is that okay..."
Because Pei Shi accidentally glanced at him, the man remembered various scenes from the previous fan comic and hinted at them many times, like a child who wanted to eat candy.
Although eating too much sugar can cause tooth decay, Bai Tao thought about it and realized that Pei Shi would be going abroad on a business trip in a few days, so it seemed okay to let him eat some sugar before the trip.
*****
Pei Shi's action was successful. Although it is not known what he did with the lawyer afterwards, Zhong Xiao finally stopped "promoting" his touching first love. He also turned down all the new variety shows he had previously claimed to join, citing his busy work schedule.
As for the previous marketing soft articles about Zhong Xiao's deep affection, they almost disappeared overnight.
Bai Tao worked out hard last night and felt a little tired, but her inspiration was flowing smoothly. She simply asked Sun Jing for a few days off and decided to sort out the outline of the subsequent plot at home and sort out the direction of the story.
When the pen finished a new one like a god, I looked through the comments on the previous series and naturally found another round of praise.
I am so amazing! Even though I traveled five years into the future, I still managed to handle everything with ease!
It’s okay if you don’t think about it. As soon as you think about it, Bai Tao becomes unhappy.
Originally, she just wanted to avoid messing up her life five years from now, so that she wouldn't have to travel back in time and be forced to take over the mess she had created. But now, even though she didn't want to admit it, Bai Tao couldn't deceive her heart -
She doesn't want to go back.
She doesn't want to give the life she has now back to herself five years later.
Feeling a little annoyed at the thought, Bai Tao fed the dog and then decided to take a walk in the yard to relax.
But this walk brought about a problem. Bai Tao had intended to water the peach tree in the yard, but when she took a closer look, she found that the fruit of her and Pei Shi’s love was about to be lost.
I haven't noticed it for a while, but the peach tree is actually infested with worms!!!
There is a small hole obviously eaten away at the bottom of the tree trunk!!!
As long as the tree is there, love is there! When the tree dies, people die!
This is not a good start!
Bai Tao immediately took out her cell phone and was about to call Pei Shi.
In the past, Bai Tao tried her best not to bother Pei Shi, but now when she encounters any small trouble, she seems to be so pretentious that she wants to find Pei Shi.
She was a little bit pretentious, but no matter how much she acted, Pei Shi was always patient and gentle, and every time he made Bai Tao feel loved. This feeling of being loved made Bai Tao feel more secure, and feel that everything she had was firmly in her hands, and it was truly her own life.
She wanted to hear Pei Shi's voice immediately and wanted to act coquettishly towards Pei Shi.

*****
Recently, Fiona said she had some personal matters to attend to, so she asked for some time off. At first, Sun Jing thought it was fine to just ignore it, but on the fourth day after Fiona was away, she began to miss her even more... Especially after she sent her a set of signed comic books by Bai Tao on her birthday, even though she didn't come...
Sun Jing was a little conflicted. On the one hand, Fiona must have had some unclear feelings with Mr. Pei before, but on the other hand, when they really got along, Fiona was not a bad person. It seemed that she had drawn a clear line between herself and Mr. Pei...
Of course, she is still far behind Teacher Bai Tao.
It is true that fans should share the same hatred with their idols, but now it seems that Fiona has put down her butcher knife and turned over a new leaf, so it is not wrong for me not to kill her, right? After all, if this person were the calm and gentle teacher Bai Tao, she would definitely choose to forgive and tolerate!
After a while, Sun Jing's thank you message to Fiona was finally replied -
"You're welcome. Happy birthday!"
Sun Jing called her immediately: "What are you doing? When will you come back to work?"
"I'm picking out a gift for my husband. I don't feel like going to work lately."
How can this be possible
Sun Jing said with some earnestness: "Women have to rely on themselves, men are unreliable." She chose her words carefully, "No matter how good a man is, he will occasionally be distracted. You should know this very well... If you don't have a career to stand on your own, what if your husband cheats on you in the future..."
Bai Tao made a prompt decision without thinking: "If my husband dares to cheat on me, I will divorce him, divide his money, kick him in the crotch, beat up his mistress, and go to his company to pull down his banners and throw him around!"
! So cruel
This Fiona is simply a street shrew, and is far inferior to the calm and peaceful teacher Bai Tao!
Sun Jing originally wanted to chat with Fiona, but unfortunately, Yuan Mu came to inform her about the meeting soon. Sun Jing immediately turned on the do not disturb mode and muted the phone.
The company has recently reached a critical period for listing, so there are quite a lot of meetings.
President Pei is very strong and focused at work. From the beginning to the end of a meeting, he will not answer any calls from the department. Therefore, he requires all participants to abide by the same standard. No matter how urgent or rushed the matter is, they can talk about it after the meeting.
But soon, Sun Jing found that it was too early for him to say this.
Halfway through the meeting, Mr. Pei's cell phone rang.
The first time, President Pei naturally didn't even look at the phone screen and continued with the meeting. However, the person on the phone seemed to be persistent. Soon, the phone rang for the second time, and then the third time...
Although President Pei had muted the sound, the lights in the conference room were off and the projector was playing, so the constantly lighting up mobile phone screen was enough to attract attention.
If a person doesn't answer a call, they will definitely infer that the other party is busy. If they want to call again, they will always wait for half an hour or an hour, not immediately. Those who can call Mr. Pei directly are all smart people in the business world. Therefore, this is the first time Sun Jing has encountered such a confused person. As expected, this is also the first time Mr. Pei has seen such an ignorant person. He frowned slightly and glanced at the phone screen.
This person is finished, he will definitely be put on President Pei's blacklist. Sun Jing almost felt sympathy for him in his heart.
As a result, President Pei took a look, frowned even more tightly, and even picked up his phone.
Then he pursed his lips and said, "Take a ten-minute break and continue after the meeting."
When President Pei left the meeting room with his phone, Sun Jing was still in a daze.
President Pei actually took a break in the middle of the first meeting
Maybe it's a really important call
For example, something related to listing
However, sitting for a long time in the meeting was tiring enough, so it would be nice to take a break. Sun Jing went outside to make a cup of coffee, then remembered that her mobile phone was running out of battery, so she quickly ran back to the office area from the meeting room to get the charger.
She was sitting at her desk, charging her phone and playing with it, when she noticed that President Pei had also returned to his office to answer a call.
Sun Jing swore that she didn't mean to eavesdrop, but her phone hadn't been fully charged yet, so she had to stay. Now that President Pei had started talking, it would be awkward and abrupt for her to suddenly stand up.
Fortunately, the large green plant in front of the desk completely hid her figure. At a glance, President Pei definitely couldn't see her. The large office area seemed to be completely empty, which also avoided embarrassment...
To her surprise, Mr. Pei, who was answering the phone in the office, had completely relaxed his brows, his lips slightly curved, and his voice and expression were very relaxed.
"Is there a bug?"
"No, it won't hurt. It can get rid of the insects."
"The tree is not as fragile as you think. I'll arrange for the pest control to come to your house. Please wait at home."
"The fruit of love will not die, I promise."
"There will be peaches to eat next year."
…
Although Mr. Pei's voice didn't change much, Sun Jing inexplicably felt it was quite gentle. It was a kind of patience that they, the working people, had never experienced before.
After listening over and over again, Sun Jing finally determined that President Pei was not talking about business at all. This was the first time he broke the rules and took a break during the meeting to answer the phone. He was talking about something completely unrelated to his personal life, and it seemed to be just a completely insignificant matter - getting rid of pests on the peach trees.
So the peach tree he planted for Teacher Bai Tao was infested with insects
After listening carefully, Sun Jing confirmed again that Mr. Pei was calling Teacher Bai Tao.
so…
So it seems that there is no problem with the relationship between Mr. Pei and Teacher Bai Tao!
Sun Jing felt a double stimulation from eavesdropping and excitement. After that, President Pei lowered his voice and she could not hear what he said until the end.
"Okay, love you."
"Is it ready?"
Mr. Pei's voice was a little unnatural, and a little helpless, but it was deep and sexy, and Sun Jing tasted the doting of "I can't do anything to you"...
Soon, the break was over, and Sun Jing returned to the meeting room with the secret that she had accidentally discovered.
President Pei was naturally calm and even cold, but Sun Jing, as a CP fan, was excited to the point of madness.
President Pei and Teacher Bai Tao, they bumped into each other!
Fiona has turned over a new leaf, and Mr. Pei and Ms. Bai Tao have reconciled and are still very loving. It’s great!
But what Bai Tao said in the comics is indeed true. A man really has two faces. Who would have thought that Mr. Pei, who is so cold and indifferent, would be like this to Bai Tao in private...
*****
When Bai Tao found bugs on the peach tree and called Pei Shi, it was actually a completely subconscious reaction.
She regretted it a little when the phone beeped.
This is a bit of an exaggeration.
Just hit it all...
She thought about it objectively, and it seemed that she wanted to hear Pei Shi’s voice today…
However, Bai Tao soon found that she didn't need to regret it, because Pei Shi didn't answer the phone at all.
I originally thought I should stop calling, but Pei Shi really didn't respond. Bai Tao became unhappy and irritated. She knew this was wrong, but her hand had already made a second call to Pei Shi...
When Pei Shi finally answered the phone, Bai Tao knew that the other party was holding a meeting related to the listing.
But he was still very, very patient and not angry at all. He also comforted Bai Tao one by one in response to all the questions she raised without saying any overly sweet words. However, this gentle treatment was enough to move Bai Tao.
Bai Tao was a little conflicted at first, but after hanging up the phone, she made a decision.
She planned to confess to Pei Shi.
She is herself, but she is not herself. She has traveled through time from five years ago. This sounds completely unreasonable, but Bai Tao still wants to tell Pei Shi.
Tell him that even though five years have passed, the me five years ago also loved him very much at this moment.
After Bai Tao made this decision, she suddenly felt relaxed. She hummed a song and suddenly got inspired. She sat down and wrote the outline of a new fantasy story...
Bai Tao finished writing the outline with great enthusiasm and processed a few contracts. Then Song Yan called her to inform her that a new batch of sample books had arrived.
"Teacher Bai Tao, is it convenient for you to come to the gate of your community to pick it up? I have to rush to the platform to attend a business meeting to discuss the cooperation on our next new comic book. I am a little pressed for time, so I won't send it to your community."
Bai Tao agreed and asked the property management to borrow a small trailer. She chatted briefly with Song Yan at the gate of the community, picked up a stack of sample books and prepared to go home.
Because Bai Tao was concentrating on appreciating the cover of her new comic, she was startled when a man on the side of the road suddenly jumped out and stopped her.
"Miss Bai, I finally found you!"
The other person was a middle-aged man with a pale face, a flustered and nervous expression, messy hair as if it hadn't been washed for days, and he was sloppy. He grabbed Bai Tao's small trailer.
Could it be the legendary illegitimate fan? !
Bai Tao subconsciously wanted to ask for help, but before she could open her mouth, the other party hugged Bai Tao's small trailer with a clang, and then burst into tears -
"Ms. Bai, you have to have a conscience! What did you say when we started working together? You are responsible for all legal risks. It's written in black and white in the contract, but now you've turned your back on me."
"We are really a small business! Now the first-instance judgment has come down, and we are required to pay so much! Isn't this going to kill us! Miss Bai, if you don't come forward to deal with this, I will hang myself on the tree at the entrance of your community with my employees!"
It would have been fine if the other party didn't speak, but when he did, Bai Tao finally vaguely remembered it.
Isn't this the man who blocked me in the parking lot the first time
The one who accused me of paying for the divorce papers and then turned against me
The other party was crying and waving something that looked like a contract in his hand.
"Although we have made a lot of money in the past two years under our long-term cooperation agreement, our profits are slim. We have only earned less than one million yuan in total, and you still have to pay the balance of 300,000 yuan. Now according to President Pei's lawsuit, we still have to pay another two million yuan!"
Wasn’t the only news released about cheating and divorce
How come he spent nearly a million? And still owes a balance of 300,000? This is a scammer!
Bai Tao was reluctant to believe it last time, and this time, after hearing what the other party said, she found it even more bizarre.
Just as Bai Tao was about to ask, she heard the other party continue -
"If you and Mr. Pei weren't so rich, I would have thought you were working together to defraud us!" The other party said with a bitter face, "One moment you want us to publish a love story, the next you want us to publish a cheating and divorce story. Now, you are united in your hatred of the enemy and are suing us for spreading rumors!"
"We are professional and ethical, and we never ask Miss Bai what you are thinking. After all, you are paid to work for others, but you can't just pat your butt and deny it after you've done the job!"
"Weren't all the love announcements you wrote about us polishing the wording?"
When the other party talked about this, his tone was quite aggrieved: "Look at how good the effect is? Now that you go out, everyone knows that you and Mr. Pei are a loving couple? Those details of your love, Mr. Pei's pursuit of you, everyone took it as true. Now that you have achieved the effect you wanted, why do you let Mr. Pei sue you..."
What... what...
Bai Tao was shocked: "What bullshit are you talking about! All the news I reported actually happened!"
When the other party saw Bai Tao's reaction, his face turned ugly: "Miss Bai, this is boring, right? Our editor wrote it word by word at the beginning, and revised it several times according to your ideas. We still keep all these versions, and we have them in our bag today!"
"I remember you thought the first versions you wrote weren't exaggerated enough, and that the editor didn't get your essence, so you wrote them yourself!"
The man was probably afraid that Bai Tao would not believe him, so he immediately took out a manuscript and said, "I still have the copy you wrote and revised!"
Bai Tao took advantage of his unpreparedness and snatched the manuscript from his hand. She didn't believe it at first, but after just one look at the manuscript, she couldn't refute it - that was definitely her own handwriting!
At this moment, Bai Tao was completely stunned by the other party's words. She was so shocked that she became dull. She said word by word with a blank expression: "So the love between Pei Shi and I is not true? Those reports..."
"Really, really, you and Mr. Pei are absolutely genuine." The other party nodded with a knowing look on his face. "Don't worry, we will keep it absolutely confidential. These are press releases. Apart from you and my company, who are the parties to the contract, we have absolutely never leaked them to anyone. We guarantee that once these press releases are released, you are genuine. You can't be more genuine."
Looking at the other person's face with an expression that said "I understand how you wealthy families are like this, it's normal to release some fake press releases, it's just a fake couple's business marriage", Bai Tao felt that how could she be at ease
She snatched the other party's contract and also took out various versions of the so-called love press releases from the other party's bag.
Without caring that it was at the gate of the community, Bai Tao sat on the small trailer and looked through the books -
Pei Shi sends flowers and waits, patiently waiting for his love
The man had stood up and sat next to Bai Tao. He pointed at the report and explained considerately, "You rejected this version because you thought it was too ordinary and not eye-catching enough. You said you wanted a more thrilling effect, like President Pei was willing to live and die for you..."
Bai Taomu turned to the next article with a gloomy face—
Pei Shi beats his chest muscles and yells loudly to woo his lover, fighting with his love rival in the rain just to win a glance from Bai Tao
"You thought this article described Mr. Pei as a primate who was fighting for territory with a female gorilla, so you didn't accept it..." The other party chuckled, "This editor is really not good. She used to be a subtitle writer for the Animal World program team and had been following the gorilla team... Later you mentioned it, and we also found that the manuscript she wrote had too much gorilla flavor, so we fired her. Now I heard that she has returned to the Animal World."
"… "
She glanced at the following scraps again—
Pei Shi shed tears and blood for love, torturing his body and heart
"Pei's Love Story: He is willing to dig out his heart and take his kidney for her"
This is written by a fucking new media writer, right? It's simply mental pollution...
…
After Bai Tao finished reading all the manuscripts and contracts, she pursed her lips tightly and was completely unable to utter a word.
Bai Tao felt that she could hardly catch her breath.
"So, Pei Shi's story of planting peaches for love is not true, and it was all written by someone you hired?"
"No, that's not it, you wrote it yourself! It's so good! If you weren't short of money, our boss would really like to recruit you to our company. Really, it's so good, it's sweet and romantic, and it combines reality and fantasy. I'm using this manuscript as a training material for our new employees! If the editors in our company were half as good as you, I'd be rich!"
Thank you so much for the compliment.
"But the loving photos you posted on Weibo in recent months were all photoshopped by our editor. Also, the recent jokes on Weibo were directly from the material library our editor sent you before. It seems that you are quite satisfied with our previous service recently. I see that those jokes are almost unchanged from our editor's."
Recently, what I posted were all previously stored in my phone's memo. Bai Tao originally thought that they were my casual records of my true love life, but it turned out to be...
The other party continued to argue how much effort their company had put in, but Bai Tao really didn't want to listen anymore...
She put down the manuscript with a blank face, and only two thoughts remained in her mind -
This is not right.
Still, I'm done for.
