Pei Zongyou also abides by the rules, if he doesn't go on business, he will come back for a meal on Saturday night.

At a table of four people, Pei Tingqing and Pei Shuyi were still sitting on one side, but this time Pei Tingqing restrained himself and did not give Pei Shuyi food, but just touched Pei Shuyi's leg under the table and motioned Pei Shuyi to eat more.

Pei Shuyi's heart was very sweet because of his childish little action, as if he didn't help her bowl pile up a mountain, she didn't know how to eat it herself, she was silent, bowed her head and ate quietly.

During this period, Huo Huiyuan mentioned Du Shixian to Pei Zongyou, "I bumped into each other that afternoon, and I learned that the eldest lady of the Du family and Chengshu had been together for a long time. Our Pei family does not accept this kind of innocent daughter-in-law, and the Du family also took the initiative to cancel the engagement. ”

"Hmm." Pei Zongyou nodded, he didn't say anything, he always wanted the result, he was not interested in the process, let alone as shrewd as he was, thinking about it, he knew that this matter had nothing to do with Pei Tingqing, but Pei Tingqing's game was exquisitely arranged, after all, the eldest lady of the Du family and Wei Chengshu were indeed in love, not Pei Tingqing intended to frame him.

Pei Zongyou was angry in his heart, but he didn't have a legitimate reason to scold Pei Tingqing, he just glanced at Pei Tingqing gloomily and let Huo Huiyuan watch it alone.

And Huo Huiyuan has long regretted arranging a marriage for Pei Tingqing without authorization, coupled with Pei Tingqing's cold attitude towards her like a stranger during this time, she doesn't want to lose this son, and tries to do something to save the broken mother-son relationship.

At this time, someone called Pei Zongyou, Pei Zongyou looked at the caller ID, and was hesitating whether to answer, when he noticed Huo Huiyuan's gaze, he paused and turned off the phone, "It's not an important person, let's eat." ”

Huo Huiyuan sneered in her heart, didn't say anything on the surface, but turned her gaze to Pei Shuyi, "Shuyi, you should have known about Chengshu and the eldest lady of the Du family for a long time, right?" In that case, why hide the eldest aunt? ”

"I .........." Pei Shuyi had already thought about how to reply to Huo Huiyuan, and she was going to admit to Huo Huiyuan that she didn't like Wei Chengshu, and after Wei Chengshu broke up with her peacefully, she fell in love with Du Shixian, in short, Wei Chengshu was not wrong.

However, as soon as Pei Shuyi spoke, Pei Tingqing interrupted her and said to Huo Huiyuan on her behalf: "Shuyi told me on the way back, and she only learned that Wei Chengshu and Du Shixian had a relationship. ”

Before that, Wei Chengshu stepped on two boats, and Shuyi was deceived by Wei Chengshu and was also a victim. At the beginning, I said that Chengshu was unreliable, but Mom, you couldn't wait to marry Shuyi. If you hadn't bumped into it, Shu Yi really followed Wei Chengshu, wouldn't her life be ruined? ”

Pei Shuyi trembled when she heard this, and Huo Huiyuan looked at her, "Is Shuyi like this?" ”

Pei Shuyi knew that Pei Tingqing didn't want Huo Huiyuan to blame her, and this could also cover up her relationship with him, so she could only selfishly let Wei Chengshu carry the black pot for her, biting her lip and responding: "Hmm." ”

Huo Huiyuan's face softened a lot, she ate the vegetables while she gently comforted Pei Shuyi, "Since Chengshu is at fault first, then Chengshu is not worth your sadness, it's just a loss of love, and you will find a better one in the future." You're about to take the college entrance exam, don't let that affect your mood. And ............", Huo Huiyuan said and raised her head, a complicated look appeared in her eyes, "Since you broke up with Chengshu, then you can't go to Japan together, Shuyi, are you going to go alone?" ”

Pei Shuyi suddenly clenched the chopsticks in her hand, and suddenly became a little speechless, "Aunt I'm ........", after strengthening her feelings for Pei Tingqing, she didn't want to go to Japan, it was not very convenient to be with Pei Tingqing, and it was really impossible for her and her eldest brother to go so far away from Japan, right?

She didn't want to give up.

Pei Shuyi clenched her fingers, her nails hurt in her delicate palms, she wanted to look at Pei Tingqing at this moment, but Huo Huiyuan's eyes were fixed on her, and cold sweat broke out on her back.

After a while, gritting her teeth and plucking up the courage to look at Huo Huiyuan, Pei Shuyi said with an uneasy look: "Auntie, I want to think about it again, after all, Chengshu doesn't accompany me, and I'm very scared alone in a foreign country." ”

"Really?" Huo Huiyuan heard that the smile on her lips sank a little bit, and she was very unhappy, but she still suppressed it and didn't show it, she glanced at Pei Tingqing, he didn't have any expression, Huo Huiyuan responded to Pei Shuyi perfunctorily, "It's only a matter of the last few days, you should think about which university to go to as soon as possible." ”

Pei Shuyi nodded, lowered her eyebrows and continued to eat in silence.

"I'm going on a business trip to South Africa in the middle of this month, Tingqing, you come with me." Pei Zongyou and Pei Tingqing's communication and talking time is limited to the dining table, if Pei Tingqing is called to the study, it will definitely be a very bad thing.

Pei Tingqing didn't react much when he heard this, "Hmm." ”

Pei Zongyou glanced at Pei Tingqing, "I am going to develop the medical career of the Pei family's chaebol over there, and I naturally need a controller." He said in an unquestioning tone, "Tingqing, you and the third uncle's son should go over together." ”

What the?!

Pei Shuyi's face changed greatly, and she suddenly raised her head to look at Pei Zongyou, and Huo Huiyuan obviously didn't know about it in advance, the soup bowl she was holding in her hand almost fell to the ground, and she turned her head to look at Pei Zongyou in shock.

Huo Huiyuan's voice trembled a little, "Zongyou, let's not talk about the environment in southern Africa, you can't bear to let Tingqing be so far away from home, right?" ”

"It's not that exaggerated, it's just three or five years, and it's not that he won't come back. Jade is not a weapon, I see that his mind is not very stable recently, let him go outside to sharpen and sharpen, and come back in five years, he will have the absolute strength to take over the Pei family chaebol, which is convincing both internally and externally. After Pei Zongyou finished speaking, he symbolically asked Pei Tingqing, "What do you think of Tingqing?" ”

Pei Shuyi's heart tightened, she felt that Pei Tingqing would definitely not agree, so she was very worried that Pei Tingqing would disobey Pei Zongyou because of this, and while waiting for Pei Tingqing's response, she and Huo Huiyuan both held their breath.

Compared with Pei Shuyi and Huo Huiyuan, Pei Tingqing was very calm and indifferent from beginning to end, just like going to South Africa just from here to Pei Shuyi's high school, he responded to Pei Zongyou lightly, "Well, you can trust me, just leave it over to me." ”

Pei Shuyi's mind was blank for a few seconds when she heard this, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Pei Tingqing, her face was pale and faded a little bit, the hand on her knee clenched again and again, and she murmured in her heart, "Big brother." ”

Why did he say yes?

If he goes to South Africa, does that mean they will be separated for five years? By that time, things will be different for a long time, right?

Sure enough, Pei Zongyou must have sensed something, so he got Pei Tingqing to such a remote and poor area, if this is the punishment for Pei Tingqing, then what can she do? If she had just said that her plan to go to Japan would not change, would Pei Zongyou not let Pei Tingqing leave?

She said that she would bear it with Pei Tingqing, but at this moment, she didn't seem to be able to do anything, or she was optimistic, this was just Pei Tingqing's delaying tactic?

Right.

It must be like this.

How could the eldest brother be willing to let her go alone, how could he be separated from her?

Pei Shuyi thought like this, but her heart was not relaxed at all, her eyes were misty, she set her eyes on Huo Huiyuan again, although Huo Huiyuan couldn't control Pei Zongyou's decision, but at least Huo Huiyuan persuaded Pei Zongyou, and Pei Shuyi also had a little hope.

Huo Huiyuan's eyes were also red, not to mention that after Pei Tingqing left, she completely lost her support and support, when the time comes, Pei Zongyou really wants to divorce her and bring that woman back to Pei's house, how much strength can she compete with Pei Zongyou?

And although Pei Tingqing is not her biological child, she has raised Pei Tingqing for so many years, and her mother-son affection for Pei Tingqing is no less than that of her biological son, she is reluctant to Pei Tingqing to go so far away to suffer, and she is even more reluctant to let Pei Tingqing leave her.

"Zongyou." Huo Huiyuan's eyes were hazy with tears, trying to change Pei Zongyou's mind, even if it was to exchange conditions with Pei Zongyou.

However, Pei Zongyou didn't give Huo Huiyuan this opportunity, "Since Tingqing agreed, let's prepare in the next few days." He stood up, took the coat handed by the servant, hung it in the crook of his arm, said hello and left.

Huo Huiyuan stared at Pei Zongyou's tall and indifferent back, she slowly collapsed on the dining chair, and looked at Pei Tingqing in a trance, "Tingqing." ”

Pei Tingqing also stood up at this time, he didn't comfort Huo Huiyuan, and said a little sarcastically: "Actually, you don't need to be sad, after all, you single-handedly contributed to this matter." You are too suspicious, and now that I have been in South Africa for five years, you should be at ease. ”

She was indeed too suspicious, thinking that there was something between Pei Tingqing and Pei Shuyi, but there was no substantive evidence, just to prevent trouble, she first got Pei Tingqing and Du Shixian engaged, and then tried to get Pei Shuyi to Japan.

In this way, even if the two have a little affection, they will be cut off from life.

However, in the end, it was self-defeating, almost making Pei Tingqing cut off relations with the Pei family, and the final result was that Pei Zongyou sent Pei Tingqing to South Africa.

She was wrong, now she is just doing it herself, and she has completely lost Pei Tingqing's support, and there is no room for recovery.

"I'll go upstairs first." After Pei Tingqing said hello, he walked upstairs.

Pei Shuyi went over to Huo Huiyuan's side, sat down and hugged Huo Huiyuan's trembling shoulders, "Auntie." Then Huo Huiyuan hugged Pei Shuyi and cried.

And after Pei Zongyou walked out of Pei's house, he got into the car, turned on the phone and dialed the phone back, after hearing what the woman over there said, Pei Zongyou sneered, "What is Mother Du looking for you to do?" What your son did, she has a reason to take revenge on you? ”

Besides, her daughter doesn't have any responsibility? I still think that her daughter seduced your son, Zhao Lanrong, what are you worried about? Pei Zongyou called the other party's name, the car was driving on the road, and the neon lights outside the window flashed rapidly, illuminating his eyebrows and eyes with a kind of tenderness, "Mother Du doesn't know that you are my woman, she has the courage to move you?" ”

Zhao Lanrong fell silent on the other side of the phone.

Unable to hear a response, Pei Zongyou looked at the time, "Are you at home?" I'm looking for you. ”

"Seung-ki is coming back soon."

Pei Zongyou nodded vigorously when he heard this, and there was a ruthlessness in his tone, "Wei Chengshu, right?" He's really capable. Pei Zongyou said coldly: "If he hadn't liked Pei Shuyi before, I would have let Pei Shuyi get engaged to the eldest son of the Jiang family's chaebol, and now he has a relationship with the daughter of the Du family and robbed me of the daughter-in-law of the Pei family's chaebol, I let him go for the sake of your face." Why, I can't even see you? Don't be ignorant Zhao Lanrong, you know what will happen if you anger me. ”

As soon as the voice fell, the phone was hung up, Pei Zongyou listened to the busy sound of "doo", pursed his lips to resist the urge to drop the phone, and he told the driver in front of him to go to the company.

Here, Zhao Lanrong put away her mobile phone, turned around and saw Wei Chengshu coming over, her light eyebrows and eyes were dyed with gentleness, "You're back?" ”

Wei Chengshu's face was pale, the past few days have been painful and long for him, smoking too much and causing his voice to be hoarse when he speaks, "I'm here to say goodbye." ”

"Farewell?" Zhao Lanrong was stunned for a moment, she walked over and asked with concern, "Have you already decided?" Where are you going and how long will you be back? ”

Wei Chengshu's tall figure stood there, keeping a certain distance from Zhao Lanrong, he shook his head and said coldly: "I don't know where to go, or whether to return it, in short, it will be abroad." Thank you for your years of nurturing and teaching, you can take good care of yourself, my sister doesn't have to worry about you. Wei Chengshu's eyes were faintly bloodshot, looking down at his mother, who was much shorter than himself, he said sarcastically and sympathetically: "I hope you can join the Pei family chaebol as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Lanrong's face suddenly became ugly, and with a sense of sadness, she stopped Wei Chengshu in a deep voice, "I don't care what others think of me, but as my son, I don't want to hear you say such things a second time." ”

"There will be no chance in the future." Wei Chengshu turned around and walked out, without even saying hello, he slammed the door shut.

Zhao Lanrong's thin figure stood under the bright light in the living room, the night outside was dark, and she was desolate all over.

After a while, her straight back collapsed little by little, Zhao Lanrong closed her eyes hard, those distant past flashed in her mind, and two lines of transparent tears suddenly rolled out.

***

Pei Shuyi accompanied Huo Huiyuan for more than half an hour, and after sending Huo Huiyuan to the room, she went back to her bedroom to take a bath, and then lay on the bed, thinking nonsense with her eyes open, and didn't sleep for an hour.

She misses her eldest brother and is used to sleeping on his chest, and now she can't sleep alone.

I don't know what Pei Tingqing is doing at this moment, is he thinking about each other like her?

Pei Shuyi thought that Pei Tingqing was in the room not far from her, but the two couldn't see each other, she felt very uncomfortable, and turned over on the big bed again.

She took her mobile phone from the bedside table and sent a message to Pei Tingqing, with a lot of things to say, but she only had the most affectionate call after typing for a long time, "Big brother." ”
