Chapter 102: Hidden Feelings
Pei Shaobei quickly changed the topic and rescued me from the predicament. I looked at me with gratitude, knowing that if I really wanted to escape, it was not the way to go, but I still had luck in my heart, hoping that we would not embarrass each other when we met for the first time, and never wanted to see each other again.
Pei Shaobei's mother is indeed a cold king, she doesn't seem to be very interested in Pei Shaobei's father's lively chatting about the current situation of work, just sitting on the sofa coldly, but from time to time a sentence or two pops up, sometimes it is to interject Pei Shaobei's father and son's conversation, and sometimes it is very abrupt to ask me about my physical condition.
I was creepy by her, and my whole body was so nervous that I almost cramped. Pei Shaobei has tried his best to ease the cover for me, but I still can't relax.
Originally, Pei Zile was watching TV after eating, and he didn't care about the conversation between the few of us at all, and occasionally glanced over a few times because of what Pei Shaobei's mother said to me, and the rest of the time he didn't squint, with a cold feeling of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
"Teacher Gu, I'll take you outside!" When Pei Shaobei's mother told me about her child's problem for the third time, Pei Zile suddenly stood up and said loudly. Pei Shaobei and I were both stunned, but Pei Shaobei's parents still looked the same as usual, and there was no difference in the slightest.
I saw Pei Shaobei wink at me, so I got up and said hello and followed Pei Zile out of the living room. It was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was shining warmly on people's bodies, which made me a little tired and began to feel sleepy, and I wanted to find a place to lie down and sleep for a while.
Pei Zile walked in front with his head down, and he didn't look at me to keep up, I wanted to speak several times, and I felt a little powerless when I looked at the black back of his head. Ask him about the babysitter, or if he passed that dependence on me.
I smiled bitterly, this really shouldn't be a topic that teachers and students can talk about. And as his brother's future wife, it seems a little inappropriate to discuss this.
The curiosity in my heart became not so sharp because of the silence at the dinner table just now, and it seemed to be a dispensable topic, since Pei Zile didn't want to speak, then I didn't need to speak first. After all, this thing is not something to be happy about, either for me or for Pei Zile.
"Teacher Gu!" Just when I was thinking to myself, Pei Zile in front of me suddenly stopped and looked back at me, he was standing on the first stone steps of the garden pavilion, and the already tall height of the stone steps was even more oppressive. I looked up at him a little helplessly, and instantly felt that this posture was not very good, so I subconsciously moved two steps back, and finally opened up the distance and the momentum of being oppressed.
"What's wrong?" I asked calmly.
"Do you see clearly!" Pei Zile said this inexplicably, my heart suddenly became furious, what can I see clearly? see clearly his parents' attitude towards me, or see clearly the gap between Pei Shaobei and me, or, see clearly why Pei Shaobei, who is so good, would choose me?
"What, see what?" I swallowed, and took a step back, my eyes subconsciously looking around, there were no gardener servants, and the garden was silent except for the occasional chirping of insects, which was mostly muffled by the other sounds of the day.
"Hmph, didn't you see clearly?" Pei Zile smiled coldly, the coldness and indifference in his eyes were exactly the same as his mother's.
I was shocked in my heart, here, I couldn't see Pei Zile as my student. The indifferent boy in front of me is not the shy and sunny boy I know, and I can't pose like a teacher, or I don't have the confidence to do it at all. This is not my home field, and I am still so arrogant and disparity on other people's territory, and I have a sense of weakness and powerlessness in my heart.
"Pei Zile, I know what you want to say. But I still say that, this is all a matter between me and your brother, we will bear what the final result is, you still have to focus on your studies, you don't have to worry about other things!" I tried to explain in a gentle tone, not wanting to arouse Pei Zile's rebellion against me.
"Do you know what I want to say?" Pei Zile suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled, revealing his small tiger teeth, and for a moment it seemed to be back when he was in school.
"You don't know!" Pei Zile quickly hid his smile, but no longer stood on the stone steps to look at me, but turned around and walked into the pavilion and sat on the rattan chair.
I had no choice but to follow him and sit across from him, I didn't expect to get rid of his complicated feelings and obsession with the little nanny, but I wanted to reduce his resistance in a peaceful way.
"Pei Zile, if you have anything to say, just say it! Except for the relationship between teachers and students, we are still friends!"
"Except for the relationship between you and my brother, are we still friends?" Pei Zile followed up and asked, I was stunned for a moment but nodded quickly. "yes, we've always been friends!
Pei Zile finally smiled, his expression was not as indifferent as just now. He turned his gaze from my face into the distance and opened his mouth lightly, "Teacher Gu, you just said that these things are between you and my brother, and you can take responsibility for it no matter what the outcome is." Then tell me, do you have no inner mind about what the future holds?"
"There will be many possibilities for thinking about the future now, Pei Zile, we can't imagine the future, that's irresponsible!"
"Yes, Teacher Gu, do you dare to ask yourself a question? Do you really love my brother, can you lose all your self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-love, even if you are not admitted, ridiculed, and ignored, are you willing to be with him?" Pei Zile suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly, and added, "Even if one day someone takes something that you will never be able to reach and asks you to leave my brother, will you firmly refuse?"
I have some sympathy in my heart, what did this child go through back then, so that he is full of pessimistic feelings about the future.
Is the little nanny who left really that important to him?
Or is it that the maternal affection that was replaced by the little nanny made him so paranoid?
Of course, I didn't dare to ask these words, and I looked at him, not knowing for a moment how to persuade him.
Pei Zile saw that I was silent, and began to press step by step, "You're not sure, isn't it?" Teacher Gu, you don't love my brother that much at all. You're just lonely, hurt, and looking for comfort! You're an adult, how can you explain your future so casually? Why don't you think about who is really right for you? Why can't you see clearly, a career-oriented man like my brother won't give you happiness at all? Why do you just ......?"
Pei Zile's words came to an abrupt end, and the white little face was also flushed with emotion, as if he was shy in the sun, seemed to be forbearing, seemed to be unwilling, but he didn't have the courage to go down impulsively.
I looked back at him in a daze, but after half a sound, I couldn't help but smile and shook my head, "Zile, you're not me, how do you know what I want?"
"But I know you! I know you better than anyone else!" Pei Zile suddenly became excited, couldn't help but get up from his seat, looked down at me, the hand hanging down his side clenched into a fist, and the next moment it seemed that he was about to do something out of the ordinary.
I was in a hurry, and immediately shouted with a dark face, "Pei Zile, you sit down for me!"
Pei Zile was stunned for a moment, as if he had just reacted, took a deep breath, and slowly sat back in his seat. I sighed, I really didn't know how to talk to my child. But aside, I'm worried that he's really getting into the horns.
"Zile, I know about that little nanny!" I tried to keep my tone as calm as possible, and my eyes were fixed on Pei Zile's face, for fear that he would have any panicked and evasive looks, but he was listening to me mention this matter, and his response was deeper and deeper indifference. It seems that the protagonist of that story is not him at all, and it seems that it is not him Pei Zile who is shrouded in the shadow of his childhood.
"Your brother told me!" I continued, seeing that he was not disgusted, "I don't know if you think I'm snooping on your privacy, but I don't mean it. At the beginning, Lin Dong went to my school to make trouble, and you stood up for me, I felt that it was the friendship between teachers and students who liked their teachers, and I was deeply moved by this. Later, you had a fight with Pei Shaobei, and you came to me covered in injuries, I was really worried at that time, but your behavior made me mistakenly think that you had something to think about me. I used to run away in a panic because of this, and I didn't even dare to tell your brother that you had been to my house, for fear that my existence would cause dislike between your brothers. Originally, these emotions were pressed in my heart, and I know that they still exist today. But just now, before eating, I saw a photo of you and the little nanny in Pei Shaobei's room, and at that time I knew why you kept defending me alone. I'm a lot like her, don't I?"
Pei Zile stared at me, and nodded after a while, "Yes, it's very similar! Actually, I can't remember what that person looks like, it's been ten years, I was so young at that time, I really don't remember anything about my facial features." But you breathe the same as she makes me!"
"So you said that all your dependence on her was transferred to me, didn't you? You protect me and hold grievances for me because you were powerless about her departure back then, but Pei Zile, that incident has passed, and you have grown up!"
