Chapter 889: Pique's Choice (Part I)
"It's none of my business whether he's bitter or not," the glitz was silent, and then stared at Peake, "it's better not to mention his name in front of me." ”
"Let's go." Peake shook his head, noncommittal.
The conflict between their father and daughter is not a day or two, and he has no choice but that the relationship between the two has not eased. It's just that after persuading him for so long, he can't do anything about it.
Seeing that Xintong had entered the guild on his own, Pique was very curious about Allure's appearance here, so he listened to him ask as he walked, "Why are you with Xintong?" ”
Allure replied, "Because we're friends." ”
It's not that Allure doesn't know what Pique's question means, it's just that she doesn't feel like she has to confess everything to him.
Behind Pique is that man, and Allure doesn't want to reveal too much about himself.
Peake saw her evasive answer, and knew that she was unwilling to tell herself.
In his heart, Allure is like his sister, but he knows that in her heart, he is afraid that he is just a person who spies on her.
"Allure, I know that you have always been wary of me because of Uncle Hua's matter." Peake said sincerely, "It's just that I really care about you from the bottom of my heart, and I don't tell Uncle Hua many things." ”
His words caused Allure to turn his head to look at him. She knew that she had a grudge against that person in her heart, so she couldn't kiss Pique and Jingzhi all the time.
Allure has very few friends, and in her heart, there are only so many people who can be called, and the relatives who are counted are probably Pique and his mother Jia Ling in front of her, as well as the righteous son Jingzhi adopted by that person.
It's not that she doesn't understand Pique's words, she just pretends to be confused, and in order to keep her distance, she is always very indifferent to him.
It's just that she also knows that if she really has something she can't handle, she will definitely ask him for help as soon as possible.
Pique is someone she can trust, but she can't control herself from being reserved about him. Because every time she talked to him, she always felt that there was that person standing behind him.
It was like a nightmare that haunted her and made her unable to let go.
"Actually"
Peake's voice interrupted her musings, and she listened to him: "Xintong and I are also good friends, I just asked about your relationship with her, not to inquire about your privacy, but, if you can, for the sake of our acquaintance, if Xintong asks, can you say something good about me." You can forget all about my previous absurdity, and most importantly, don't tell Xintong about those things. ”
Flashy Allure looked at him incoherently, and suddenly felt that he was really thinking too much just now.
People are just afraid that they will tell the ridiculous things he had before, and they are not trying to explore their privacy at all.
"Don't worry," the glitz said to him, "I'm not going to talk nonsense." ”
Seeing that she agreed, Peake said, "Then can you tell me everything you know about Xintong." ”
If his words were said to others, it would indeed be a bit rude, but because this person was Allure, he didn't feel that his requirements were too much.
"I'm sorry," Glitz declined, "no comment." ”
"Why?" Peake still didn't give up, "Just by our relationship, this is related to the happiness of the rest of my life, and you won't help me?" ”
Allure squinted at him, she knew very well who he was, he was really not trustworthy emotionally, and she had a good impression of Xintong, of course she would not push her into the fire pit.
"There's no why," Allure replied, "I've also met her for the first day, and I'm not very familiar with her. ”
Pique didn't expect Allure to meet Xintong today, originally he thought that they met when Xintong joined the Canglan Guild.
At this time, Allure had already walked away, he caught up with her in a few steps, and shouted behind her: "How come you only know each other now, wasn't she also in the Canglan Guild before?" ”
Vanity Allure was annoyed by his relentless pursuit, stopped and said angrily: "Are you checking your household registration?" It's all said that you just met, if you want to know, you can ask her yourself, you're Peake, Jayo's nephew, when do you need a helper to chase girls? ”
Seeing that she was impatient, Pique made sarcastic remarks about herself, and suddenly felt that she was indeed a little tasteless in this matter.
But he also knew that Allure was right, he really didn't know what to do with Xintong, and his reputation for so many years of wandering flowers was ruined in her hands. Peake didn't know much about her, especially after the update of the Dust Character system, and she stayed away from herself.
If it weren't for the Demon King quest, Pique knew he would have needed more time to find her.
And that's it, he still doesn't know anything about her on the planet Abula.
The Demon King's quest allowed him to recognize her in the dust, but it didn't stop there.
Growing up, he Pique never wanted something that he couldn't get, and a large part of this was due to the relationship between his uncle Jayo. The other thing is that he lacks a kind of attachment to everything.
His interest always runs out quickly, never for long.
And all this was refreshed when I met Xintong.
He teased again and again, and was invisibly dissolved by her, even if he knew that she belonged to her, he didn't feel that he was inferior to others.
Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger was his usual method, and he thought he would always be the victor, and until this moment it was no exception.
He shrugged his shoulders helplessly, since Allure didn't want to say it, of course he wouldn't be stupid to ask Xintong.
Xintong is too similar to himself, and he needs to be very rigorously planned.
The two of them didn't say anything anymore, and the Phoenix Restaurant was close at hand.
"Young Master, you can count it." A man in uniform in the Phoenix Restaurant said flatteringly the moment Peake came in.
Makuku City is the central city of the Western Continent.
The Phoenix Restaurant here is of course the most luxurious place in the whole dust, and of course, the employees who work here are also the most loyal in the Jayo Group.
These employees also know Pique, the invisible person in the group, very well. Even if he doesn't hold a position in the group.
Before Pique entered the Phoenix Restaurant, the employees who learned that he was coming stood in two rows under the leadership of the shopkeeper.
"It's all gone," Peake waved his hand, "I'm not an uncle, I don't like the kind of greeting, you can save it later." ”
The man in uniform had a smile on his face, let his subordinates disperse, and came to Pique's side and said, "Young master, the boss hasn't been here for a long time, for the sake of his subordinates' dutiful face, can you just say to me when the boss is coming, so I'm so prepared, right?" ”
After he said these words, Peake's eyes widened, and he looked at the man in front of him in disbelief.
