Thinking of this, Duan Xuchu turned on the laptop at hand, and when he entered the web page, he just saw Pei Yanjie walking out of the Pei family's chaebol company surrounded by a group of subordinates and media reporters.

Wei Wei sat beside Duan Xuchu, "Hmm......", she pointed to the computer screen, "Isn't this woman the one we saw in the Western restaurant that day?" We all thought she was Pei Tingqing's woman, but it turned out that she was actually his daughter. It's just that you didn't know Miss Pei Jiaer at the beginning? ”

Duan Xuchu explained: "She was sent abroad since she was a child, and I have no intersection with her, but I just heard Yanqiao say that Pei Yanjie is very familiar with me. It's no wonder that he thinks Pei Yanjie is like a certain woman, and now he looks like Pei Yanjie is indeed like her mother Ning Menglian.

"The second miss of the Pei family secretly pays attention to you?" Wei Wei raised her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Duan Xuchu's extremely handsome side face, and she said sourly: "With my sixth sense as a woman, she should have had a crush on you for many years. ”

Duan Xuchu curled the corners of his lips when he heard this, and said in a disapproving tone, "The second brother is worth this kind of value, this kind of look, there are countless people who have a crush on the second brother, but you have to eat this vinegar, it has nothing to do with me, don't hurt your own body." Duan Xuchu turned around and raised his finger to touch Wei Wei's face, "Good, I don't like other women, and I don't have an affair with any woman, don't think too much." ”

Of course, Wei Weiyi believed in Duan Xuchu, and seeing that Duan Xuchu was so serious, she held the back of Duan Xuchu's hand that was placed on her face, "I'm joking with you." But then again, ......", Wei Wei refocused her attention on the bright and pretty woman on the screen, and she sincerely admired, "Miss Pei Jiaer is so young and beautiful." ”

Duan Xuchu closed the laptop when he heard this, leaned over his forehead against Wei Weiyi, his hot thin lips pecked at the tip of her upturned nose, and said affectionately in a low magnetic voice: "In my eyes, except for Wei Wei, women all over the world look the same, and there is not much difference." ”

This is false, but it is too beautiful, Wei Wei was immersed in Duan Xuchu's sweet words, and forgot that Li Ao was still there, she laughed softly, and after a while, she remembered one thing, "Let's not talk about what happened, but Pei Yanjin is dead, and the third brother has such a good relationship with him, he will definitely be very sad." Wei Wei broke away from Duan Xuchu's embrace, frowned and said worriedly: "Last night, he also said that he would bring news early this morning, and now he hasn't even called us back, is something wrong?" ”

This is also what Duan Xuchu was worried about.

Don't look at Pei Yanqiao who doesn't care about anything on the surface, cynicism and poison, in fact, Pei Yanqiao is very dependent on people in his bones, he longs for many people to be good to him, in addition to Duan Xuchu, Pei Yanqiao also cares about Pei Yanjin, now that Pei Yanjin is dead, it is impossible for Pei Yanqiao not to suffer.

"Don't worry, I'll give him a call first." After Duan Xuchu finished speaking to Wei Wei, he called Pei Yanqiao, but no one answered after waiting for a long time, Duan Xuchu's slender eyebrows furrowed.

Seeing this, Li Ao hurriedly said: "Second brother, Pei Shuyi should have been admitted to the hospital because of excessive sadness, and Pei Tingqing was also in the hospital to accompany Pei Shuyi, will the third brother go to take care of his mother?" You call and ask Pei Tingqing. ”

Duan Xuchu nodded, probably because Pei Tingqing was too busy, he occupied the line for a long time after he called, and Pei Tingqing replied to him, without waiting for Duan Xuchu to ask, Pei Tingqing said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Ah Chu, I don't have time to tell you so much, you forgive me." Yan Jin committed suicide, and you should be able to guess the reason. ”

"Yes." Duan Xuchu is such a smart person, he has understood in a moment, and he replied in a low voice, "Please also ask the instructor to mourn and take care of your body." If there is something that needs Ah Chu's help, the instructor said. ”

"There's nothing to trouble you for the time being, I can handle it alone at the moment, and you're injured yourself." Pei Tingqing paused for a long time when he said this, and he muttered: "If you can, I hope you can go to the house to see Yan Qiao in person, he ......"

Duan Xuchu responded: "I know, the instructor can rest assured that he will hand over Yanqiao to me, and you don't have to worry about him anymore." ”

"I've always trusted you, from being on Infernal Island until this moment, I don't even know who else I should trust besides you." Pei Tingqing laughed, but this laughter was heard in Duan Xuchu's ears, but it made his heart glow with a slight bitterness and pain.

The polite arc of Duan Xuchu's lips stiffened a little bit, turning into a thick helplessness, but all he could say was a simple sentence, "Instructor, take care of your body, I will take time to visit you." ”

Pei Yanjin's death is not a big blow to Pei Tingqing, after all, he is a son who has spent hard work and affection to raise, even if he is not biological, losing Pei Yanjin, as a father, Pei Tingqing may be more sad than anyone else.

After Duan Xuchu hung up the phone, he got up and went to the inner room to change clothes, and said to Wei Weiyi, who came up behind him: "Let's go to Yan Qiao now to have a look, Uncle Pei said that Yan Qiao's state is not very good." ”

Wei Wei nodded, thought for a while, and said, "You stay in the hospital to recuperate, I'll go over to see the third brother." ”

Duan Xuchu put on a black shirt, his slender fingers buttoned and turned around, he said to Wei Wei solemnly: "You are not familiar with Yan Qiao, according to his temperament, if you go to him, it is estimated that you will see a playful and casual Pei family Sanshao, you can't stabilize him." ”

Wei Wei thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case, so she had no choice but to nod in compromise, walked over to help Duan Xuchu take out her coat, and after changing her clothes, the two walked out of the hospital together.

Duan Xuchu held an umbrella in one hand, put one arm on Wei Weiyi's waist, and sat in the car with Wei Weiyi in his arms, Li Ao drove to Pei Yanqiao's residence and galloped away.

On the way, Wei Wei only remembered Duan Xuchu's name for Pei Tingqing, and she suddenly realized, "The instructor who wears a mask and is responsible for teaching you various skills on Infernal Island is actually Pei Tingqing, the controller of the Pei family's chaebol. When Yan Qiao mentioned the instructor to me yesterday, I could see that he admired the instructor very much, but in fact he hated his father, so he must not know that the instructor was his biological father, right? ”

Duan Xuchu nodded, "Except for me and Li Shaochong, among the people who are still alive, no one knows that Pei Tingqing is the instructor on Infernal Island, but there is one thing you are wrong." Duan Xuchu pulled Wei Wei's wrist and said helplessly: "Yan Qiao's heart is very eager for Pei Tingqing to love him. ”

"When he was still on Infernal Island, he regarded the instructor as his father in his heart, and in addition to training, the instructor was really kind to the two of us in private, and sometimes when he was punished for a day and couldn't eat, he would secretly bring us food in the middle of the night. Later, I learned that those sumptuous supper snacks were actually made for us by himself. ”

Wei Wei leaned her head on Duan Xuchu's shoulder, "The place full of blood and killing on Infernal Island, and such a deep love, just since it's so ......", she said and turned her face to look at Duan Xuchu, "Why didn't Uncle Pei let Yan Qiao know what he did for his son, but let Yan Qiao misunderstand him so deeply?" ”

"Instructor, he has always been a person who only does not speak, no matter what others think of him or how he understands it, he will not deliberately explain it." Duan Xuchu stretched out his arm to wrap his arms around Wei Weiyi's shoulder, and put his palm on the hair on Wei Wei's back, "In his opinion, people who really understand him don't need to explain." ”

Wei Wei couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "If you have a father, you must have a son, you were raised by an instructor, no wonder your personality is similar to him in many aspects, especially in your style." For example, the desire to control is to never allow anyone or anything to get out of one's control. ”

Is that so?

In fact, for Pei Tingqing and him, the current situation is completely unexpected, and it is slowly getting out of control, right?

Duan Xuchu didn't say anything more, and the atmosphere in the car was a little depressed and solemn.

Wei Wei saw Duan Xuchu's sad look, she bit her lower lip, "Are you worried about the death of the eldest son of the Pei family's chaebol, and the situation of the entire Pei family's chaebol will change, right?" ”

Without Pei Yanjin's support, Pei Tingqing is equivalent to losing his right-hand man, he is powerless alone, maybe it won't be long before the Pei family chaebol changes hands.

Seamless coincidences, from Jiang Qian to Lian Zihan and then to Pei Yanjin, these three things will be connected in tandem and you will find that it was actually a shocking conspiracy from the beginning.

Needless to say, the Jiang family's chaebol will run out in a short time, and once the Jiang family falls, it means that Wei Shisheng will also come to an end, and maybe the case of framing Wei Chengshu will be turned over again, and the Duan family will also be implicated.

As a result, the four major chaebols of Pei, Jiang, Wei, and Duan all suffered heavy losses, and Pei Wei's two major chaebol families suddenly changed hands, at least Li Shaochong's annexation plan was half successful.

Everything was exposed because of Pei Yanjin's death, and it was also developing towards a situation that Duan Xuchu couldn't control, and before he knew it, he still came to this point.

Duan Xuchu fell into a long silence.

Wei Wei was worried that he would annoy him, so he didn't speak again along the way, snuggled up to Duan Xuchu's chest, and held one of his big hands tightly with both hands, so as to tell him that no matter what happened, she would be by his side and never leave.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped at Pei Yanqiao and her mother's residence, Duan Xuchu helped Wei Wei get out of the car, and when he walked over with his arm around her waist, Pei Tingqing's subordinates were waiting for them outside, and when they saw someone, their subordinates opened the door and respectfully told Duan Xuchu that Pei Yanqiao was still upstairs in Pei Yanjin's bedroom.

Duan Xuchu and Wei Wei walked up the stairs one after the other, and when they stood in front of the door, Xuchu thought that the door was locked, and was trying to open it while holding the doorknob, only to find that it was not locked.

Duan Xuchu and Wei Wei glanced at each other, then Duan Xuchu gently pushed open the door and walked in, facing a bloody aura that had not yet dissipated, due to the gloomy weather outside and the fact that the lights were not turned on in the room, the light was very dim, and the whole atmosphere seemed gloomy.

It's just that Wei Wei didn't show any fear, and looked around the huge room with Duan Xuchu, and found Pei Yanqiao in front of the window.

He sat on the cold ground, his two long legs bent up, buried his face in them, his arms held his head, the window was open, and the rain outside spilled in and poured on Pei Yanqiao's body, Wei Wei felt cold when he stood there, but Pei Yanqiao maintained that posture and didn't move for a long time.

Wei Weiyi's heart hurt as if he was being poked by a sharp knife, and he walked over and whispered to him with tears in his eyes, "Third brother." There was no response for a long time, and in the dead room, only the curtains were blown by the wind.

Duan Xuchu squatted down in front of Pei Yanqiao's knees, raised his palm and put it on Pei Yanqiao's shoulder, only to find that his whole person was stiff, and it is estimated that he has not even moved since last night.

"Yanqiao, listen to me." The temperature in Duan Xuchu's palm passed to Pei Yanqiao through Pei Yanqiao's soaked clothes, he stared at Pei Yanqiao, and said in a low voice, "Yanqiao, this is the path Yan Jin chose by himself, I think he must have died without concern and regret, so ......"

Before the words were finished, Pei Yanqiao, who had been stiff and motionless, shook his head and made a hoarse and suppressed voice, "No ......", he raised his face from his knees, and Wei Wei, who was squatting in front of him with Duan Xuchu, noticed that under the not very bright light, Pei Yanqiao's eyes were red, and something flashed in his inky pupils, shiny.

Duan Xuchu knelt on one knee on the ground, the palm on Pei Yanqiao's shoulder tightened a little, and sensing the tremor of Pei Yanqiao's muscles, he pursed his lips and did not answer.

The rain dripped down Pei Yanqiao's hair and slid down his pale face, he seemed to be out of focus, and seemed to be staring at Duan Xuchu and Wei Weiyi very seriously, "I told him that night that if he wants to ask for my forgiveness, he must pay for what he has done to you. ”

"But I was just talking at the time, I didn't want him to die, he knew me so well, why didn't he understand my unintentional words, but really paid with death?"

Duan Xuchu was speechless.

He felt that he could understand the reason for Pei Yanjin's suicide.

For Pei Yanjin, Pei Yanqiao's unforgiveness is what hurts him the most and makes him the most painful, and from Pei Yanjin's point of view, Pei Yanjin is unwilling to follow Pei Tingqing's arrangement to marry other women, and a series of counterattacks are actually not wrong.

If Duan Xuchu was in a situation like Pei Yanjin, Duan Xuchu also didn't want to marry a woman he didn't love, he might use more extreme means and hurt more people.

But it's all for yourself, pursuing what you want, and wanting to live better, who is right and who is wrong, you can't really judge, right?

Pei Yanqiao asked Pei Yanjin to pay the price, so Pei Yanjin chose to commit suicide.

Pei Yanjin may have thought that as long as he died, Pei Yanqiao would forgive him.

Too self-righteous thoughts.

Wei Weiyi's heart was very painful, and the tears in her eyes suddenly welled up, she reached out and pressed on Pei Yanqiao's shoulder on the other side, and whispered: "If it's really uncomfortable, don't hold yourself." ”

Duan Xuchu's subordinates exerted a little force, and silently took Pei Yanqiao over, hugged Pei Yanqiao's head with both hands, and said in a low voice: "Second brother is ......"

Pei Yanqiao's head was pressed against Duan Xuchu's chest, and after a while, Duan Xuchu felt that one by one hot liquid smashed on the back of his hand that was soaked in rain, Pei Yanqiao's low and suppressed crying sound came into his ears, and Duan Xuchu only felt that some kind of hot liquid in his eyes was about to rush out.

No matter how violent Pei Yanqiao is in the eyes of his subordinates, how eccentric and changeable his temperament is, and how elusive he is, in Duan Xuchu's heart, Pei Yanqiao is always the little child who woke up from a nightmare at night when he was a child, and cried alone with a photo of his father and mother.

After a while, Wei Wei raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and after giving Duan Xuchu a look, she got up and walked downstairs to the kitchen, and found ingredients in the refrigerator to make breakfast for the three of them.

More than half an hour later, Duan Xuchu and Pei Yanqiao walked into the restaurant side by side, Wei Weiyi put breakfast in front of the three of them, and ate his own silently with his head down.

Pei Yanqiao still sat motionless.

Duan Xuchu thought that Pei Yanqiao was in grief again and couldn't extricate himself, he had a warm smile on his lips, and asked Pei Yanqiao in a gentle voice like coaxing a child: "What's wrong Yanqiao, I don't like the breakfast you made by your sister Yiyi is not delicious?" So, whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you. ”

Pei Yanqiao said in a trance: "The night I was eighteen years old, I went to my eldest brother's house for the first time, and the next morning he made me a fried rice. ”

"I see, you sit down for a while." Duan Xuchu got up as he spoke, walked to the kitchen and quickly brought a fried rice and put it in Pei Yanqiao's hand.

Wei Wei glanced at Pei Yanqiao eating fried rice very quietly, and at this moment she suddenly felt that this man with many facets and people who couldn't see through his heart was actually very simple and simple.

It turns out that what Pei Yanqiao lacks is only care and love from family affection, and the reason why he cares about Duan Xuchu very much is precisely because Duan Xuchu gave him family affection like fatherly love.

After eating breakfast, Pei Yanqiao gradually eased up from his grief, but the whole person suddenly became very lonely overnight, no longer as lazy and leisurely as usual, and turned his head to look at Duan Xuchu, the pair of dark brown eyes were calm and calm, "I'll go back to Pei's house to see my eldest brother." ”

Seeing this, Wei Wei got up and persuaded softly: "It's better for you to rest for a while and go to see it in the afternoon." I guess Brother Pei should be in the funeral home now, and it wasn't convenient before that, right? ”

Pei Yanqiao frowned, and wanted to say something, but his shoulder was pressed heavily by Duan Xuchu, "Be obedient, otherwise I will stun you." ”

Pei Yanqiao was speechless.

Duan Xuchu took his mobile phone and glanced at it, "Uncle Pei should have something to do with me, I'll go over and help you see your aunt by the way." After finishing speaking, Duan Xuchu didn't wait for Pei Yanqiao to agree, turned his head and said to Wei Weiyi: "You either stay here, or I will send you back to the beach, in short, I can't go all the way, take you all the way, right?" ”

Wei Wei was also a little embarrassed, and nodded with a slight sigh, "Then I'll stay with the third brother, and you will pick me up in the afternoon." ”

Pei Yanqiao was immediately unhappy, "I don't need you to accompany me, I want to be alone and quiet." ”
