Zhang glanced quickly at Bai Mengfei's figure and had a general idea of what size clothes would suit her.
After he hung up the phone, Bai Mengfei couldn't help but ask, "You seem to know a lot about girls. You can tell what clothes I should wear just by looking at me?"
"No, actually I just saw your information in some documents before," Zhang Jie explained with a smile.
Bai Mengfei was skeptical, because her information shouldn't have been entered yet, especially such private information. Even if it had been entered, it wouldn't be as accurate as the chapter described. "Don't be modest. I can tell you have a keen eye."
Zhang Jie grinned and leaned closer, saying, "Would this give me some extra points at work?"
"What kind of bonus points?" Bai Mengfei immediately stopped smiling and asked seriously.
Zhang quickly dropped his playful demeanor and said seriously, "In terms of work, could this ability be a plus?"
“Yes, having sharp eyes is definitely an advantage; it’s called insight.” With that, Bai Mengfei turned around and slowly walked upstairs.
Just then, a girl rushed in, shouting as she ran, "Xiaojie!"
Zhang Jie and Bai Mengfei turned their heads at the same time.
A pretty girl ran in, but her clothes looked a bit old-fashioned and dowdy, and she seemed to be a little older than usual.
Bai Mengfei thought to herself, given the extent of Zhang's understanding of women, if they were related, why would Zhang let her dress like this?
In an instant, Bai Mengfei became suspicious and looked at Zhang Jie with suspicion.
Zhang hurriedly explained to Bai Mengfei, "She is my sister, and she probably came to borrow salt from me."
After saying that, Zhang walked over quickly and blocked the girl, almost preventing her from entering the house.
The puppy in the chapter seemed to really like the girl, and immediately ran over and jumped into her arms.
Bai Mengfei noticed that the girl had a good impression of Zhang Jie, so she slowly walked downstairs and said, "We can get to know each other."
The girl was scrutinizing Bai Mengfei with a critical eye, unaware that Bai Mengfei actually harbored no hostility.
The girl walked in slowly and asked Zhang Jie, "Who is she?"
“Zhang Ting is my mentor. I transitioned from a police officer to a criminal investigator, and she's the one guiding me now,” Zhang explained.
Bai Mengfei nodded politely to the girl and said, "Hello, my name is Bai Mengfei."
"Hello, my name is Xia Yun, the Yun in 'all living beings'."
“Ms. Xia, hello. He and I are just ordinary colleagues. I am staying here temporarily because I have nowhere else to live.”
Zhang Que hurriedly explained to Bai Mengfei, "She and I are just ordinary neighbors."
“What ordinary neighbors? We’ve been playing together since we were kids!” Xia Yun said excitedly.
Chapter rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "It's true we grew up together, but you played at your house and I played at mine."
Xia Yun shrugged and said, "What's the difference?"
"I can't explain it to you. It's very late now, you should go home as soon as possible," Zhang Jie said.
Xia Yun seemed reluctant to leave, pointing at Bai Mengfei and saying, "If she can stay here, why can't I?"
Zhang took a deep breath and lowered his voice, saying, "Because she is my colleague and my mentor."
“But I’m your friend too. Your house is so big, I can stay here too.”
Bai Mengfei had absolutely no interest in the emotional entanglements in the chapters, so she shook her head helplessly and turned to go back upstairs.
Seeing that Bai Mengfei was ignoring him, Zhang Jie suddenly became angry at Xia Yun and said, "If you don't leave, I'll arrest you!"
"Don't be so fierce!" Xia Yun frowned and said pitifully, "You know it's not safe outside lately, how can you bear to let me go back alone? Why don't you take me home?"
"Since you know it's not safe, don't run out alone!" Zhang Qun tried his best to persuade Xia Yun to leave.
But when Xia Yun left, she kept turning back, looking reluctant to leave.
As soon as Xia Yun left, the delivery guy brought the clothes Zhang Jie had bought. "There are three sets in total, all here, for a total of 5030 yuan. There's also a 100 yuan delivery fee, so it's 5130 yuan. Would you like to pay in cash or something else?"
"I'll transfer it to you." Zhang Jie said, and then transferred the money.
Then, he excitedly took the clothes and ran upstairs, thinking that he would be very happy to give them to Bai Mengfei.
But he really didn't know Bai Mengfei very well.
Bai Mengfei is different from other girls; she doesn't care much about material things.
At this moment, she was immersed in her memories, recalling everything from her past lives to her present one. And in every fragment of her memories, Xiang Yuntian's figure seemed to be present.
She had to admit that she was deeply in love with Xiang Yuntian.
But what can be done now?
After all, no matter how powerful she is, she cannot control someone else's heart, let alone win back a man who has already changed his mind.
Just as she was lost in thought, there was a knock on the door.
Knowing it was Zhang Qu, she composed herself and called out, "The door's unlocked, come in."
Zhang pushed open the door, holding the three sets of clothes in his hand, and said with a smile, "I don't know if you'll like them."
"Just leave them there." Bai Mengfei didn't care about the clothes at all. In her opinion, clothes were fine as long as they were wearable. After all, once you put on a protective suit and a mask, wouldn't everyone look the same?
Moreover, she felt that the body she was in was no longer her true self.
Zhang hoped she could change her clothes quickly and see how it looked, but he couldn't just stand there watching her change. So he gently put the clothes down, smiled to himself, and slowly backed away, saying as he did so, "Then you can try it on. I'll go out now."
"Okay, go ahead," Bai Mengfei said softly.
After leaving the room, she didn't even glance at the clothes, but instead gripped her phone tightly. Deep down, she felt that Xiang Yuntian owed her an explanation.
Perhaps we owe her a formal explanation?
But she also felt that Xiang Yuntian wasn't the kind of person who would be irresponsible and leave no room for explanation, so she was willing to wait for that call, which might come at any time. She even mentally prepared herself that when that call came, it might bring "good news" that felt like bad news.
Perhaps Xiang Yuntian will tell her something like that he is going to marry Kelly.
Bai Mengfei silently prepared herself for all these possible scenarios. But she was determined to wait for Xiang Yuntian's call, no matter what.
She waited for a long time, but the phone never rang.
More than an hour later, the knocking sounded again. Needless to say, it was probably another chapter.
"Is there anything else?" she asked.
Then Zhang asked, "Do you want to take a shower? If so, I can adjust the water temperature in the room for you."
"No need, I can do it myself."
After she finished speaking, she waited until she felt the chapter had left before getting up, locking the door, and going into the bathroom.
Actually, she wasn't very good at adjusting the water temperature.
