The Epic Revenge Chapter 1426: Are you a driver?
Pei Cheng gave Si Qiongzhi two books.
Si Qiongzhi brought it over and found that it was the original signed book in English by the author Dante. When she looked carefully, it was not only the signature, but the first edition.
This kind of first edition signed book has long been hyped up to sky-high prices.
"Is it your collection?" Si Qiongzhi asked him, "Do you have nothing else besides these two books?"
"The value of a book lies in the spirit of delivery, otherwise it is a pile of paper and some ink. These are paper and ink, and those are also, how to distinguish between noble and inferior?
Therefore, the book itself has no particularly significant value, and the value is the author's thought. Since they are all ideas, the ideas expressed in the first edition and other editions are the same, what is the difference? " said Pei Cheng.
Si Qiongzhi held it in his hand and weighed it for a moment.
She wasn't really excited.
As a young lady of the Yuecheng Governor's Mansion, Si Qiongzhi has been accustomed to all kinds of rare treasures since she was a child. If she wanted the first edition, she would have sent someone to collect it.
Even if her father and brother retired to Singapore, her family's wealth would be more than enough to buy the whole of Singapore.
These two books must be Pei Cheng's favorite.
He gave it to her, which is to show her sincerity. If he doesn't accept it, he will definitely be disappointed.
But the gift is too precious, and it was specially treasured by him, so Si Qiongzhi is reluctant to take people's favor.
She was in a dilemma, and when she looked up, she saw the nervousness in Pei Cheng's eyes behind the lens, and her heart softened for no reason.
"Thank you." Si Qiongzhi took over.
The corners of Pei Cheng's lips curved slightly.
He is always introverted, his emotions are light, and he can't see anything.
Si Qiongzhi felt that he was a little indifferent at the moment according to his usual eyes, but if you look closely, you will see the tiny curvature of his eyes.
That's an unnatural arc.
It's like the unnatural feeling of wanting to laugh, but pressing it too hard.
He was at least ten times as happy as he showed on his face.
Si Qiongzhi didn't know why, but he also smiled, and his ears were hot, and he lowered his head and brushed the broken hair.
"See you at the reading meeting that weekend." Si Qiongzhi said.
Pei Cheng nodded.
For the next two days, he walked with wind. Although he didn't talk or laugh, everyone in the department, including the patients, could see Dr. Pei's good mood.
Dr. Pei was as cold as the gloomy sky all year round, but suddenly the dark clouds dissipated and the sun shone brightly.
The sun is not strong enough, like winter in Singapore, warm and warm, everyone can feel it.
"Dr. Pei, is there a happy event?" a bold nurse asked.
Pei Cheng said: "No."
Although he said that, he gave an extra smile, which made the nurse's cheeks hot. I don't know what Dr. Pei's suaveness was doing today.
Si Qiongzhi also saw it.
Pei Cheng didn't look at her, but Si Qiongzhi clearly saw his happiness.
She also seemed to have a flower in her heart.
On the way home, she couldn't help laughing when she remembered all the things during the day.
The adjutant knows her very well. She is not very old. She is two years younger than Si Qiongzhi. Although he is tall and mighty, he is like a lively little brother. He asked Si Qiongzhi, "Miss, why are you so happy?"
He often chats with Si Qiongzhi.
Si Qiongzhi said: "It's fine."
"Miss, is someone pursuing you? Girls will be radiant when they are in love with someone they like." The adjutant said.
Si Qiongzhi's cheeks are inexplicably hot: "Nonsense, how old are you!"
The adjutant felt that the young lady was trying to conceal herself, so she smiled and stopped asking.
The next day is Saturday.
Si Qiongzhi and Pei Cheng don't need to work overtime this week, and there is a book club at ten o'clock in the morning on Saturday.
Si Qiongzhi got up early to pick clothes.
She made the bed full of skirts and tried seven or eight sets in a row, but she was not satisfied.
Just at this time, Gu Qingzhou came.
"...Are you going out?" Gu Qingzhou looked at her grand gesture, "Is this a date?"
"No, it's the book club that Dr. Pei said last time." Si Qiongzhi said, "It's this morning, I'll go take a look. I've heard of many colleagues, and I want to make a good impression."
Gu Qingzhou can't help laughing.
Si Qiongzhi seemed to know what she wanted to say, and immediately said, "Don't say it."
Gu Qingzhou spreads her hands: "I didn't say anything."
Si Qiongzhi's ears turned red.
She was very nervous and nervous, and wished she could run away.
"Sister-in-law, which one should I wear better?" Si Qiongzhi asked.
Si Qiongzhi has grown now. She was very beautiful when she was fifteen or sixteen years old, and now she is even more delicate and charming.
This beauty looks beautiful in anything she wears.
"The light green one. You are very fair, and you don't look like a Nanyang girl. Light green can make your white look brighter and more energetic." Gu Qingzhou said.
Si Qiongzhi's wardrobe is full of all kinds of dresses, more complete than department store shelves.
She has more than 20 sets of light green clothes.
Gu Qingzhou chose a sleeveless long skirt for her, and asked the servant to bring her a pair of white leather shoes.
Si Qiongzhi was well-tied and took a selfie in the mirror, feeling very satisfied.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Si Qiongzhi picked up the handbag, "I have to go, it will be too late."
"Don't rush back." Gu Qingzhou smiled, "Have fun."
Si Qiongzhi's face turned red again.
The weather was still hot, and when she walked to the gate, a thin layer of sweat formed on her forehead.
She didn't wear makeup today, just wiped her sweat, and when she put away her umbrella and was about to get into the car, she heard a whistle.
Only then did Si Qiongzhi realize that a black car was parked across the street from her house, under the yellow shield tree.
When the car door was opened, Pei Cheng, who was wearing black trousers and a brown long-sleeved shirt, walked down.
The weather is hot, his shirt is rolled up halfway, revealing his still sturdy forearm, the lenses seem to have melted, and his eyes are particularly intense.
"Miss Si, will you take my car?" Pei Cheng pushed down his glasses subconsciously, "If you don't mind..."
Since Si Qiongzhi decided to go out with other people, she didn't want to stick to this little detail and seemed coy, so she said, "Okay, thank you very much."
Pei Cheng opened the car door for her.
Si Qiongzhi was amused when he saw him pull out the back seat.
She turned her head to the side and laughed silently for a few seconds before she pulled it away and said, "Are you going to be a driver for me?"
Pei Cheng understood.
He closed the door with stiff arms and pulled the driver's seat open, his face tensed as hard as he could, but the corners of his eyes were bent again.
Si Qiongzhi got into the car.
The car drove out, and Pei Cheng and Si Qiongzhi gradually eased from their discomfort. The two of them chatted with each other without embarrassment.
"...I'm a little rusty, and I'm not very comfortable." Pei Cheng said to Si Qiongzhi, as if to explain his embarrassment that he had just opened the door.
Si Qiongzhi thought about it for a while, and felt that most men who were at ease were social masters, not as single-minded and devout as Pei Cheng.
She said: "I don't appreciate a man who is in a good mood."
The topic is here, which is a great improvement. Pei Cheng and Si Qiongzhi both thought at this moment: Do we have to go further?
