Pei Shuyi was still hesitating, Pei Yanqiao pushed her, and said coquettishly: "Mom, go quickly!" I would love to eat my mother's ravioli. ”

Pei Shuyi had no choice, got up and glanced at Pei Yanjin with concern, and finally walked to the kitchen.

Pei Yanjin suffered a gunshot wound on the shoulder, and her mental state was not very good, but she still sat there very upright, her face was pale, but she was always cold and calm, and she didn't answer Pei Yanqiao's question for a long time.

"Don't say it?" Pei Yanqiao raised his good-looking eyebrows, leaned back with his long figure, he raised one leg, put his arm on the armrest of the sofa, and was high, lazy and leisurely, "Then let's change the question!" In a casual tone, he raised his strange dark brown eyes to look at Pei Yanjin, and his lips were curled with a smile that seemed to be a smile, "What is the matter between you and Lian Zihan?" Do you really like men, or is everything just a façade for Ah Chu and the others? ”

Pei Yanjin was shocked when she heard this, her face fluctuated, and she looked up at Pei Yanqiao suddenly, "I ......", before she spoke, Pei Shuyi, who was supposed to be in the kitchen, stood not far away, raised her hand to cover her mouth, and looked at Pei Yanjin with shocked eyes, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses, "Yanjin, you ...... Like men? ”

Pei Yanjin lowered her head, and the hand on her knee slowly clenched into a fist, "Yes." ”

"So your father forced you to marry because of ......"

Before Pei Shuyi finished speaking, Pei Yanjin pursed her lips, and her voice was full of hardship, "Auntie is not wrong in her guess. ”

Pei Shuyi trembled when she heard this, only to feel that it was dark in front of her, which made her feel dizzy, and she was held by Pei Yanqiao's arm when she almost couldn't stand, "Mom, what's wrong with you?" ”

Her son's worried look came into her hazy vision, and she slowly eased up, shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's just a little difficult to accept for a while." Don't worry about Mom, keep talking! Mom won't eavesdrop anymore. ”

Pei Yanqiao smiled disapprehantly: "Mom, what do you say about eavesdropping or not, I just don't want Mom to know some bad things." He looked at Pei Shuyi's pale face and touched her forehead with his palm, "Is it really okay?" Do you want me to call a doctor or go to the hospital? ”

"Nothing." Pei Shuyi pulled out her arm, and without waiting for Pei Yanqiao to say anything, she turned around and walked to the kitchen in a trance, and closed the door with a "bang".

Pei Yanqiao stood in place for half a minute, sat back on the sofa expressionlessly, took out a cigarette and lit it, and said without raising his head: "There's nothing to say, wait for Pei Tingqing to come and take you back!" He will definitely give me and Ah Chu an explanation. ”

Then there was silence between the two, and it was raining outside the window, except for the sound of rain hitting the glass window, crisp and pleasant.

Pei Yanqiao held a cigarette in his mouth, supported half of his face with the palm of one hand, lazily looked at the water droplets that fell on the glass wall, and pulled out clear water marks after sliding, he seemed to be very engrossed, until Pei Yanjin called his name, his pupils slowly turned to Pei Yanjin.

"Yanqiao, will you discriminate against me, or ......" Pei Yanjin said very slowly, his fists clenched and released, released and clenched, and finally he looked up and looked directly at Pei Yanqiao's exquisite face, "Or do you think people like me are disgusting?" ”

Compared with Pei Yanjin's anxiety, Pei Yanqiao still had that casual attitude, lifting his eyelids and casually glancing at Pei Yanjin, "I don't discriminate, and I won't feel disgusting." Seeing that Pei Yanjin's originally dark eyes suddenly lit up, Pei Yanqiao hooked the corners of his lips, "But I'm sorry, I won't accept your feelings, because you are my eldest brother." ”

"Big brother?" Pei Yanjin's thin white lips filled with a smile, but she was so bitter and self-deprecating, "If you treat me as a big brother, you won't shoot me without hesitation for the sake of Duan Xuchu." Between me and Duan Xuchu, you chose Duan Xuchu, didn't you? ”

Pei Yanqiao nodded, "That's right." People are very greedy, for me, you and Ah Chu are my most important relatives, I don't want to lose either, but I have to force me to choose only one of them, my answer is undoubtedly Ah Chu. Don't say I'm ungrateful, you have indeed taken good care of my mother over the years, but in the final analysis, that's what you should do as a junior, Ah Chu is different. ”

"To be honest, I didn't want to save him when I was five years old, I was just too lonely and wanted a playmate. Ah Chu took it seriously, in the 11 years on the desert island, Ah Chu was the only one who was good to me. The deepest impression is that once the instructor asked us to run, and the last one had no food, I should have been the first, but there was a little accident halfway, and among so many so-called brothers, only Ah Chu came back alone and helped me walk the whole way. You won't know how important a meal is to us after three days of training in a row and we are physically exhausted......"

Pei Yanjin lowered his head and listened silently, it was the first time in so many years that Pei Yanqiao had mentioned the matter of Infernal Island to him.

"Actually, he has done a lot for me, but I have been hating him self-righteously all these years, and I have forgotten a lot. Counting Yan Jin, you have been with me for a longer time, and our relationship should be more intimate, but someone told me that the relationship between people is not measured by the length of time they have known each other, and the so-called blood relationship, except for my mother, Ah Chu is the most important person to me in this world. ”

Pei Yanjin listened to these words very quietly, his pupils fluttered violently, and finally he buried his head deeply, covered his face with his palms, and a hoarse voice came out of his throat, "I'm sorry......"

Pei Yanqiao got up and walked over, raised his palm and pressed it on Pei Yanjin's stiff shoulder, and whispered: "You don't need to apologize to me, I like real things, pay the due price for what you did today, and I will consider whether to forgive you or not." ”

Pei Yanjin froze, and then a transparent liquid trickled out from between his white fingers.

That's when the doorbell rang.

Pei Yanqiao walked to open the door and saw Pei Tingqing with water droplets in his hair, he frowned, turned sideways and let Pei Tingqing in.

Just as he was about to close the door, Pei Yanqiao saw the back of the woman who had just opened the car door for Pei Tingqing and was sitting in at this moment, his slender eyes narrowed, and he strode forward and grabbed the woman's thin wrist, "Since everyone is here, why don't you go in?" Otherwise, don't be accused of 'poor hospitality' at that time. ”

The woman turned her head suddenly, and a charming and young face met Pei Yanqiao's eyes, and at this moment, her originally panicked eyes flickered, and then quickly buckled Pei Yanqiao's wrist, turned around and raised her leg to hit Pei Yanqiao's shoulder.

"I can't help myself." Pei Yanqiao said these four words softly, and there was a slight noise under the friction of the clothes of the two, and a few seconds later, Pei Yanqiao leaned over and pressed the woman against the car door, and a pistol was pressed against the woman's head, and at the same time, the pistol held by the woman also pressed down on Pei Yanqiao's forehead.

The rain was pouring down, and the two of them always maintained that posture and did not move for a long time.

***

After Pei Tingqing walked into the living room, he stood in front of Pei Yanjin condescendingly, "Two choices." ", his unquestioning tone, "At the end of October, I will marry the woman I chose for you step by step, but from now on, you can no longer fight the idea of the Pei family chaebol, but concentrate on helping the heir of the Pei family chaebol I have chosen, and only be the nominal Pei family eldest and youngest; Of course, you can not compromise, then I will give you a second way - leave the Pei family forever, and you will not be able to see Pei Yanqiao again in the future. ”

Pei Yanjin sat there, still silent.

Pei Tingqing raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "Think about the time for three minutes, if you don't choose, then-", said a black pistol and threw it on the coffee table, Pei Tingqing's voice did not carry any emotion and warmth, "Come on yourself, don't force me to do it." ”

The fate of the grasshopper shaking the tree is nothing more than that.

For him, the three choices Pei Tingqing gave him were actually equivalent to one.

If he marries another woman, it means that he will never have the opportunity to stay by Pei Yanqiao's side, and all his resistance will lose its meaning, what is the difference between living in such pain and dying?

Pei Yanjin reached out and took the gun, aimed it at her heart, closed her eyes and was about to pull down the trigger, Pei Shuyi ran over and grabbed the gun and threw it aside.

Then she pulled Pei Yanjin behind her, faced Pei Tingqing, and asked almost beggingly, "Can you please give him another half hour?" Let him calm down first, and this is not the result you want, otherwise, you will not give him two paths. ”

Pei Tingqing lowered his head and stared at Pei Shuyi's eyes for a few seconds, turned his back to her, and said lightly, "I know." I'll come back tomorrow night, and you guys should rest early! I went back. ”

Pei Shuyi asked people to send Pei Yanjin to the upstairs room first, and when she turned around and saw that Pei Tingqing was about to walk out, Pei Shuyi said softly, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." ”

Pei Tingqing paused, his tall and slender figure stood under the light of the living room, and the round drops of water on his hair dripped down one by one, "You have misunderstood me many times, I don't care for a long time." ”

Pei Shuyi stood behind Pei Tingqing, I don't know if it was because of the light, she found that Pei Tingqing had lost a lot of weight recently, and the whole person looked very lonely, more lonely than ever.

Her heart ached, she lowered her head and clenched her fingers, biting her lower lip, trying to justify, "You didn't tell me, I didn't know that Yan Jin liked men, and you let him marry to change his sexual orientation." I thought you were for the benefit of the Pei family's chaebol, in order to better control Yan Jin and make him your tool, I ......"

"I turned out to be wrong." Pei Tingqing interrupted Pei Shuyi, as if he was tired, his voice was hoarse, "I always thought that many things I could control and were irreversible, and I had to reverse them." ”
