Schumann Xue, who was sitting next to him, raised the corners of her lips lightly, and there was a hint of watching a good show in her eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Looking directly at Lei Mu's sharp eyes, Bei Xiaorou pursed her lips and shook her head, "Since I have received the payment, I must finish the work before leaving." ”

Lei Mu stood up suddenly, glaring at her angrily, her chest rising and falling violently, it was obvious that she was very angry. Bei Xiaorou bit her lip tightly, and her pale face was stubborn and unwilling to back down.

The atmosphere in the living room was tense, as if it was about to break out at any moment, and the servants passing by were so frightened that they all walked around with their heads down.

Lei Mu was even more annoyed by her ignorance, pointed at her hand and trembled slightly with anger, and said loudly: "Uncle Li, get her out for me!" ”

Lei Ziqian, who walked into the door, heard his mother's angry words, frowned and walked to the hall, and saw the petite figure standing alone in the center at a glance.

His dark eyes darkened suddenly, and he turned his eyes to look at his mother, who was full of anger, his face was slightly cold, "Mom, she is the pastry chef I specially invited, please give me the least respect." ”

Bei Xiaorou turned her head to look at him, biting her lip and her face was pale, her eyes were full of shock, her hands holding the corners of her clothes trembled slightly, and finally lowered her head.

Shu Manxue also looked at him with a displeased face, and the hand hanging by his side was quietly clenched.

Seeing the little woman standing there alone with her head down, her thin body like a weak willow swaying lonely in the wind, a trace of distress flashed in Lei Ziqian's eyes. He walked up to her without a trace, blocking his mother's view, and his broad shoulders felt reassuring.

Bei Xiaorou looked at the delicate leather shoes that suddenly appeared in front of her, blinked, and suddenly felt a surge of grievances, and her eyes were slightly red.

Lei Mu pursed her lips and glared at her son who suddenly appeared, his protective words made her even more annoyed, "Why should I respect her for this kind of person......

"Mom" Lei Ziqian's face turned cold, his dark eyes were cold, and he looked at his mother's gaze with a warning meaning, "Don't insult your identity!" ”

Lei Mu was stunned, her face was full of anger and shock, as if she didn't expect him to say this about her for an outsider. blushing in annoyance, he felt that the anger in his heart could not be relieved, and he looked at the half of his body that was slightly exposed behind his son, and his eyes were even more disgusted.

Shu Manxue on the side pursed her lips, watching the man's protective actions, her eyes were full of resentment.

Lei Ziqian turned around, looked at the woman who had always bowed her head and was silent, stared at her eyebrows, reached out and gently broke away her cold hands that were tightly holding the corners of her clothes, frowned, and gently held them in her hands.

Bei Xiaorou looked up at him, the warmth from the palm of her hand spread to her heart, her heart trembled, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand. The man looked at her deeply, pursed his lips and called Uncle Li on the side to take her back to work in the kitchen.

The man was dressed in a dark blue custom dress, which made him more elegant, with handsome facial features, outstanding posture, and dazzling as the stars in the sky. Obviously standing not far away, Pei Xiaorou felt that between them, there was a long distance that she would never touch.

There was a sour and irresistible abruptness in her heart, she turned around and walked out of the living room behind Uncle Li, Lei Ziqian looked at her gradually disappearing figure, and there was anxiety in her eyes.

Night soon fell, and the Thunder House was brightly lit, and the dispute was soon forgotten in the back garden.

The sky was full of stars, the night sky shrouded like a huge curtain, and on the side of the wide and quiet road, Pei Xiaorou stopped and turned her head to look at the mansion that was shining like a pearl in front of her.

Those two worlds are completely different from her, and that man is really too far away from her. She lowered her eyes, only to feel as if her heart had been pressed on a thousand pounds of burden, and she couldn't breathe heavily.

A car speeding past her, the sound disturbed her thoughts, and with a bitter smile, she took a step and continued to walk forward, pulling a long shadow out of the road.

The Lamborghini that had just driven by slowly retreated, and finally stopped beside her, the car door opened, and the handsome man got out of the car and walked to her, staring at her with eyes shining like stars, "Why are you here?" ”

Some unexpectedly ran into him, Pei Xiaorou blinked lightly, "There is a birthday party, and I was hired to make a cake." ”

His eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was a hint of weirdness in Zhuo Yuanhang's eyes, but he just nodded, didn't say anything, and then took her hand, "If you can't get a taxi around here, I'll send you back." ”

Bei Xiaorou was slightly stunned, looking at the dark and long road in the dark night ahead, thinking that he had just walked all the way down, sparsely populated, and indeed there was no taxi, so he did not refuse his send-off, nodded and said thank you.

The corners of Zhuo Yuanhang's lips lifted slightly, and after settling her down, he turned around and walked back to the driver's seat, and the sports car drove forward with a clatter.

Lei Ziqian withdrew from the banquet and went to the kitchen to look for Pei Xiaorou, but was told by Uncle Li that she had left. He lowered his face and asked him why he didn't inform himself, Uncle Li was a little surprised, bowed his head and said sorry.

Slightly irritated, he pulled his bow tie, and Lei Ziqian took out his mobile phone to call Bei Xiaorou.

In the car, Pei Xiaorou looked at the mobile phone that kept ringing in a daze, took a deep breath, and picked up the phone. At the other end, Lei Ziqian's low noise came into the eardrums, "Where are you?" Stop where you are, and I'll send you back. ”

"No need." She hurriedly refused: "I'm almost home, you can attend the banquet." That, I wish my aunt a happy birthday, goodbye! ”

Lei Ziqian frowned tightly, looking at the phone that had been cut off with a depressed face, his black eyes were as dark as the sea, making people unable to see his emotions clearly.

After hanging up the phone, Pei Xiaorou turned her head to look out the window, and her melancholy and lost expression was reflected in the window. Zhuo Yuanhang glanced at her sideways, his brows furrowed slightly, the steering wheel turned, and the car drove in another direction.

When the car slowly stopped, Bei Xiaorou realized that she had come to the beach, and she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Zhuo Yuanhang in surprise. He unbuckled his seat belt and looked at her: "It's been a long time since I've been to the beach, don't mind going down with me." ”

She nodded, and the two got out of the car.

The salty and damp breath rushed into her nose, and the sea breeze blew in the night, lifting the long hair on her shoulders, fluttering unbridledly, her clothes rattled gently, she shrunk her shoulders slightly, and rubbed her hands around her chest.

Zhuo Yuanhang turned his head to look at her thin clothes, reached out and took off the coat on his body and draped it over her.

The warm breath suddenly shrouded her, Bei Xiaorou was slightly stunned, looked up at him, shook her head, and just wanted to speak, but the man stretched out his finger and touched her lips, "Obedient, clothed, I don't want you to catch a cold tomorrow." ”

Unable to refuse, she had no choice but to reach out and pull over her wide coat, nodded and thanked softly, the corners of Zhuo Yuanhang's lips were lightly raised, and the two walked side by side along the coast.

At night, the sea is deep and dark, the sound of the waves crashing is clearly heard in the ears, the stars twinkling overhead are bright and bright, and the sea with no end in sight is even wider and farther.

Bei Xiaorou stood on her feet, closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the sea tide, and the sound came into her heart, as if she could wash away all the troubles in her heart, and her mood suddenly relaxed a lot.

Zhuo Yuanhang's tall figure stood beside her, his eyes as bright as starlight, staring at her delicate side face with extraordinary concentration.

The two stood quietly like this, and I don't know how long it took, Zhuo Yuanhang said, "How is it, are you in a better mood?" ”

The corners of Pei Xiaorou's lips lifted lightly and nodded. After a moment, he opened his eyes and turned to look at him in surprise.

Helping her tuck the coat on her shoulders, as if seeing her doubts, he smiled slightly: "Don't be so surprised, your emotions are all on your face, you can see through it at a glance." ”

A warm current slowly surged in her heart, she pursed her lips, and looked at him gratefully with clear watery eyes, "Brother Zhuo, thank you!" ”

With a smile on his lips, Zhuo Yuanhang reached out and rubbed her head lightly, turning his head to look at the dark sea. The always lazy look was replaced by a touch of seriousness, and his eyes were as deep as the sea and shining as stars.
