Pei Yue suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and responded: "Mrs. Qi is my aunt, who are you?"
The girl smiled and said, "My name is Xie Ziyi. My father works in the provincial government and also lives in this compound."
A deep meaning flashed in Pei Yue's eyes, and she smiled: "Hello, my name is Pei Yue."
Xie Ziyidao pointed to Pei Yue's equipment and asked, "Are you going out?"
Pei Yue nodded: "Well, I plan to go shopping around."
Xie Ziyi smiled: "Just in time, I plan to go out too.
If you don’t mind, can we come together?”
She further explained: "Don't get me wrong, for some reason, I fell in love with you as soon as I saw you, so I took the liberty to come over and ask you."
Pei Yue was very surprised, like a little girl who was inexperienced in the world: "How could it be? It's too late for me to be happy." t
She scratched her head: "Actually, I also think this sister is very kind at first sight!"
She took Xie Ziyi's hand, as if she was familiar with it: "To tell you the truth, I just came here yesterday and I'm not very familiar with this place.
Now it’s good, you made me a friend as soon as I left home!”
There was a fleeting sarcasm on Xie Ziyi's lips. Like a big sister, she smiled softly and said, "Maybe this is what people call fate."
So, the two people who met for the first time went shopping together arm in arm.
Xie Zi seemed to accidentally ask Pei Yue about the affairs of the Pei family and the Qi family. Pei Yue seemed to be really innocent and told her everything with a smile, except for her and Qi Jinzhi's affairs.
Looking at Pei Yue's crescent-shaped smile, Xie Ziyi felt something strange about her "unreserved" words.
Seeing the conspicuous signboard of "Alluring Time" right in front of her, she had no choice but to put her thoughts aside and said: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, do you want to prepare some new clothes?"
Pei Yue looked at the clothing stores on both sides of the street and responded, "Okay."
She paused: "It's just that I think these clothes are more ordinary."
She was used to seeing big international brands, so even Lin Hailu's clothes were hard to catch her eye.
Xie Zi pointed to the front: "Hey, there seems to be a newly opened shop in front. It looks pretty good."
The direction Xie Ziyi points to is the alluring time.
Pei Yue looked over with surprise in his eyes: "Let's go and have a look."

Xia Qingyuan sat at the counter of Qingcheng Time with a sad expression. From time to time, she raised the corners of her lips and nodded to the guests who came in.
Now it’s mid-January, and there are almost ten days before the Chinese New Year.
Qingcheng Time opened more than a month ago, taking advantage of this good opportunity for people to buy new clothes during the New Year.
In addition, Xia Qingyuan and Lao Dai made full use of their unique vision to purchase many high-quality clothes that follow the trend.
The target customer group has also changed from female customers to mainly female customers, supplemented by male customers, and the female customer group has also expanded to older women - brought by their own daughters or daughter-in-law.
Men naturally don't go shopping for clothes themselves, but their wives will buy them for them.
Not to mention respectable people, even families of workers working in workplaces and factories are willing to dress their men better when they go out, so that they can look good on themselves, right?
So nearly a month after Qingcheng Time opened, Xia Qingyuan rarely became tired of making money.
She touched her flat but slightly thickened lower abdomen and sighed. It was probably because the two children were making trouble and they were no longer interested in making money.
Now that my belly is more than two months old, it is the time when morning sickness is most severe.
She often vomits in the middle of eating, then rinses her mouth very calmly and continues eating.
The child needs nutrition and she must eat it.
Fortunately, the nutrition doctor adjusted her diet formula every day. In addition to Aunt Wu, Lin Dongxiu and Shen Yizhou also learned to make various snacks, just to make them for her when she wanted to eat.
The wind chime hanging at the door rang, and two more guests came in.
Xia Qingyuan raised her eyes while saying hello: "Welcome..."
When she saw the person clearly, the smile on her face froze.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Xie Ziyi and a strange girl.
Now, are there still girls from good families willing to play with Xie Ziyi?
Xie Ziyi had a calm expression and looked at her with a meaningful look that made people shudder.
On the other hand, the girl next to her smiled kindly at Xia Qingyuan: "Hello, boss lady!"
As the saying goes, don’t hit someone with a smiling face, so Xia Qingyuan also smiled back: “Hello!
Are you here to buy clothes? The store happened to have a new batch of clothes a few days ago, why not take a look?"
After saying that, he stood up and led Pei Yue to look at the clothes.
As for Xie Ziyi, Xia Qingyuan seemed not to see her.
I had to get nervous and let her get better, but she was too lazy to take care of it.
Xie Ziyi didn't care, his eyes were blank, he didn't know what he was thinking, and followed him.
Pei Yue looked at the furnishings in the store and at the hanging clothes, her eyes sparkling.
She praised: "Madam boss, your store is so beautifully decorated."
She stretched out her arms and said, "I just looked at the entire street, and no one's store is as good-looking as yours."
She gently touched the row of clothes in front of her and gave Xia Qingyuan a thumbs up: "There are also these clothes, which are fashionable enough and of good quality."
Xia Qingyuan couldn't help but smile at Pei Yue's unstinting praise: "I'm very honored to be liked by you."
Even if he appears with Xie Ziyi, anyone will feel happy after hearing such words.
Moreover, Pei Yue's eyes were clear, and she didn't feel like she was complimenting for the sake of complimenting.
Pei Yue smiled and approached her: "The boss lady is also pretty, she is as beautiful as a fairy."
Xia Qingyuan couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud: "When you say that, I'm a little suspicious of who arranged it to deliberately make me happy."
Pei Yue also laughed: "Absolutely not, I am telling the truth."
The customer picking out clothes on the side also smiled and said, "Yes, the lady boss is as beautiful as the shop owner!"
Xie Zi heard the comment, coughed slightly, and said to Pei Yue: "Didn't you say you want to see the clothes? Is there anything suitable?"
Only then did Pei Yue remember his original intention and responded: "I want what I want."
Then she turned to Xia Qingyuan and said, "Madam boss, can I take a photo of the store later?"
Xia Qingyuan nodded: "Of course it's okay."
Seeing that Xia Qingyuan readily agreed, Pei Yue was very happy: "Thank you, boss lady."
Xie Ziyi picked up a maroon dress and placed it on Pei Yue's body and said, "You have to choose some beautiful clothes this time. When the time comes, people will not be able to take their eyes away when they see it."
She looked at Xia Qingyuan again and said, "Look at me, I even forgot to introduce you."
She pulled Pei Yue: "This is Mrs. Pei's niece." Then she pointed at Xia Qingyuan: "This is the wife of the new Secretary Shen."
As soon as Xie Ziyi's words came out, people who didn't know the relationship between Xia Qingyuan and Shen Yizhou all looked at Xia Qingyuan.
They didn't even know that Secretary Shen's wife opened this shop, no wonder they were so proud!
Xia Qingyuan ignored Xie Ziyi's malicious joke, smiled at Pei Yue and said, "Hello, I am Xia Qingyuan."
Pei Yue also hurriedly stretched out her hand: "I am Pei Yue, just call me Xiaoyue."
Xie Zi agreed with the two of them to say hello in a friendly way, and said quietly to Pei Yue: "By the way, there is one more thing that you may not know yet.
Your cousin has a very good relationship with Secretary Shen's family.
Especially with Mrs. Shen, we are still old friends."
Xia Qingyuan: "..."
She was already scolding her mother in her heart.
Pei Yue seemed surprised: "Boss Xia, did you know my cousin before?"
