Chapter 111: Love
There are three people on Infernal Island who wear masks and use fake names to hide their true identities, one is Duan Xuchu and Pei Yanqiao's sworn brother, the second is Tang Rouqing, and the third is the instructor on the island who is responsible for training and teaching them, that is, the Pei Tingqing in front of him.
Duan Xuchu first discovered Pei Tingqing's true identity when he was 16 years old, and later Pei Tingqing told Duan Xuchu everything, because at that time, Pei Tingqing, the person who founded M2K, wanted to choose Duan Xuchu as the next heir of M2K.
In fact, according to Pei Tingqing's identity as the controller of the Pei family's chaebol, there is no need for Pei Tingqing to go to the island to bend down to them as instructors, but for the sake of Pei Yanqiao, Pei Tingqing still did it.
Pei Yanqiao didn't know that his father, who had abandoned him on the island since he was three years old, had actually been guarding him for the years when he was growing up, raising him and teaching him.
Duan Xuchu retreated half a step back, bent down slightly and bowed, neither humble nor arrogant, with proper manners, "Uncle." In the 12 years from Duan Xuchu's age of 8 to 20, Pei Tingqing took care of Duan Xuchu to a large extent, and he admired Pei Tingqing, as his father, for silently paying so much for Pei Yanqiao, not asking for Pei Yanqiao's return, nor caring about Pei Yanqiao's misunderstanding and resentment of him.
Fatherly love is great.
In Duan Xuchu's heart, Pei Ting cleared out the instructors who were common to several of them, and they were also the elders he respected and loved.
"I heard that Nannan is here for her birthday today, so I came to give me a gift." Pei Tingqing said this, but he didn't go in immediately, his face was still cold and calm, "Last time, Shao Chong almost leaked Yanqiao's secret, thanks to your help." ”
Pei Tingqing is referring to the fact that Li Shaochong hid everything about Pei Yanqiao in the chip, and it is obvious that Li Shaochong wants to design Pei Yanqiao and the Pei family.
The current M2K forces are divided into three parts, of which Li Shaochong has the largest power, the second is Duan Xuchu, and the third is Pei Yanqiao, these three people all want to gather the scattered three major forces, and the fight between Duan Xuchu and Li Shaochong in the background over the years can be described as wonderful.
Duan Shu Chu bowed, "Uncle is very kind to me, this is what I should do." After a slight pause, Duan Xuchu looked at Pei Tingqing and asked in a low voice, "I want to know where Li Shaochong is now." ”
"He's not dead." After all, they are all moral people, and Pei Tingqing can only say in a low voice: "And it's right next to you." Ah Chu, remember what I taught you, don't trust anyone easily, including Nannan's biological mother. ”
Duan Xu was stunned when he heard this, and when he lowered his head, the inky hairline on his forehead hung down, and a pair of eyes loomed, and his head quickly slid over a touch of astringency, and he pursed his lips and said, "I know." After speaking, he pushed the door open for Pei Tingqing, and the two walked in together.
When Pei Yanqiao saw Pei Tingqing coming in, his face sank suddenly, and he was about to stand up, but Sheng Qizhou on his side held down his shoulder and reminded in a low voice, "Your family affairs, solve them at home, don't ruin Nannan's birthday party." ”
Pei Yanqiao's smooth chin tightened, and finally sat down, his fingers gradually pinched.
Nan Nan was fighting with Wei Wei, Duan Xuchu walked over and led Nan Nan to Pei Tingqing, he touched Nan Nan's head and said softly: "This is Grandpa, Nan Nan says hello to Grandpa." ”
Nan Nan nodded obediently, and then gestured to greet Pei Tingqing.
Pei Tingqing stood there and looked down at Nannan, his slender eyebrows and eyes furrowed tightly, "Am I that old?" But her slender eyes glanced at Pei Shuyi who was sitting there, and saw that her eyes were on the floor-to-ceiling window, and she didn't even seem to notice him coming in, which made Pei Tingqing's lips float with a self-deprecating smile.
Just as she was out of her trance, the corner of her clothes was pulled by Nannan, she raised her head and gestured to Pei Tingqing, "Grandpa is not old at all, he looks as good-looking as my father, but I don't know why Dad asked me to call it that, just like the beautiful young Aunt Wei, I should actually call her sister." ”
Duan Xuchu said in a deep voice: "Nannan, don't be so big and small. ”
Nan Nan pouted, but Pei Tingqing couldn't help laughing, squatted down and touched Nan Nan's hair, and said softly: "This kid is so likable......
Speaking of which, he only hugged and approached Pei Yanqiao when Pei Yanqiao didn't remember, and his adopted son Pei Yanjin rarely stayed in Pei's house since he was sensible, and was mostly taken care of by Pei Shuyi.
This is the first time he has been close to other children except Pei Yanqiao.
When she heard Pei Tingqing praise her like this, she squinted her eyes and laughed, leaned over and kissed Pei Tingqing's handsome face.
Pei Tingqing was stunned.
Seeing this, Duan Xu hurriedly wanted to pull the girl back, but Pei Tingqing laughed out loud first, took out the prepared necklace from his pocket, and put it on the girl's neck, he held the girl's shoulder and looked at it for a moment, and then kissed the girl's face.
Duan Xuchu breathed a long sigh of relief.
He was really worried that Nan Nan would anger Pei Tingqing, and if Pei Tingqing started a fire, he would definitely scare Nan Nan.
Pei Yanqiao glanced over, and happened to see the pity in Pei Tingqing's eyes, and his fists clenched even tighter.
Several other people also came over to say hello, Pei Yanqiao naturally sat there with a blue face, Pei Shuyi nodded lightly, her eyes did not meet Pei Tingqing, and she treated him detachedly and politely, as if it was a polite greeting in a social situation.
Pei Tingqing didn't say anything, walked over and sat on the sofa diagonally opposite Pei Shuyi, with a lazy posture, one arm on the edge of the sofa, and also didn't pay attention to Pei Shuyi.
Duan Xuchu cut a piece of cake and handed it to Pei Tingqing.
Pei Tingqing took it and tasted it, "It's delicious." ”
When Duan Xu first heard Yanyan, he glanced at Pei Yanqiao, who seemed very quiet in the past, "The whole cake was made by Yan Qiao himself." ”
"Oh?" Pei Tingqing raised his eyebrows, he was not interested in tasting a bite, and when he heard that he was going to put it back, he withdrew it and ate a lot in silence.
The atmosphere has eased a lot.
Duan Xuchu's mobile phone vibrate, he got up and walked to the side to connect, and after listening to his subordinates' words, he said lightly: "Tell them that I am on my way back from a business trip, and I will be over in 1 hour." ”
After hanging up the phone, Duan Xuchu sat beside Sheng Qizhou again, and whispered to Sheng Qizhou about some business matters, during which Jiang Zhentian called directly, but he didn't answer, and then simply turned off the phone.
An hour later, Pei Tingqing got up and said hello to a few people before leaving, and Sheng Qizhou and Ling Yueqiong also went back together soon after.
Duan Xu seemed sleepy when he first saw Nan Nan leaning on Wei Weiyi, Pei Shuyi was present, and it was inconvenient for him to ask Wei Wei to send Nan Nan home, so he had to let his subordinates take Nan Nan back first.
Duan Xuchu returned to the room and was just about to say something, Pei Shuyi stood up and said to Pei Yanqiao: "I'll go to the bathroom, you wait for me for a few minutes, we should almost go back." ”
Pei Yanqiao nodded, "Okay." ”
So there were only three people left in the room, Duan Xuchu, Pei Yanqiao and Wei Weiwei, and Duan Xuchu's phone vibrated again.
After Duan Xuchu hung up, he walked over and sat beside Wei Wei, and said in a low voice: "You wait for me for a while, I'll go out to do something, and then come over to send you back to the beach, or go to me." ”
Wei Wei nodded, "Hmm." ”
Because of the fact that Pei Yanqiao has not left yet, their behavior is not intimate and ambiguous, and they are not close, but when the two of them talked, they stared at each other, and that affection flowed out from the corners of their eyes, as if they were ten thousand years at a glance, and stabbed Pei Yanqiao's eyes hard.
Nannan's birthday, but he was too uncomfortable.
First of all, Pei Tingqing's attitude towards other people's children, and then compared with Pei Tingqing's 14 years of abandoning him on the island, which made his heart very unbalanced; Moreover, Duan Xuchu and Wei only showed their affection in front of him, these people all have their own happiness, what about him?
He suddenly felt lonely like never before, as if the whole world had abandoned him.
Pei Yanqiao got up and was about to leave, Duan Xuchu walked over, and put his palm on Pei Yanqiao's shoulder, "Yanqiao, thank you tonight for making Nan Nan spend the happiest day since she was born." ”
Pei Yanqiao's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, but he said coldly: "Don't thank me, it was the woman who loves you who invited me to accompany you to act, she came up with the idea of setting off the fireworks, and the cake was also made by her own hands, I just took all the credit from her for nothing." ”
This lie is really not true.
Wei Wei was still on the beach with them in the afternoon, how could he have time to make such a big and delicate cake?
Duan Xuchu didn't expose Pei Yanqiao, he suddenly hugged Pei Yanqiao with a bend of his arm, and there was a relaxed smile in his voice, "Then thank you for being willing to accompany us in this scene." ”
Pei Yanqiao turned his face away, let go of his clenched fist, and responded almost inaudibly, "Hmm." Only then did he push Duan Xuchu away, turned around and opened the door and strode out.
Duan Xuchu looked back.
Wei Wei's slender figure stood there, with a slight smile on her lips, and behind her was the neon lights outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, lining her whole person softly and gracefully.
Duan Xuchu strode forward, grabbed Wei Weiyi's waist with one hand, and at the same time touched Wei Weiyi's face with the palm of his other hand, he lowered his head and kissed her, and whispered over and over again, "Wei Wei...... But ......"
***
After Pei Shuyi received the message, she found Pei Tingqing in front of a fountain in a pool.
He stood there with his back to her, his body crisp and slender, the evening breeze blowing through his hairline, the silhouette of his face looming, just as she had stared at him from behind so many times in those years.
Pei Shuyi took a deep breath and walked over, standing not far from Pei Tingqinghan, her face was pure, "Which woman do you want Yan Qiao to marry at the end of next month?" ”
Pei Tingqing turned around at this time, and a sneering smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "I don't tell you this, will you meet me?" ”
Pei Shuyi was stunned for a few seconds, and after reacting, she turned around and left, but was suddenly hugged hard from behind by Pei Tingqing, who stepped forward a few steps.
He said hoarsely in her ear: "How long do you have to hide from me Pei Shuyi?" Are you really going to spend our lives like this? With a slight force, he pulled her emaciated body into his chest, letting her back press against his tight muscles, his face buried in the hair on her shoulder, and his voice was dyed depressed, "Shuyi......"
Pei Shuyi shuddered and slowly closed her eyes.
