Xie Ruiyu couldn't see Pei Xianglin sad and wronged the most.

The people watching the excitement next to him even discussed: "Miss Pei is really filial." ”

"Yes, after all, it is a relic of the elders, if it is really lost, then Miss Pei will definitely be sad."

Qiao Ran was firmly blocked by Chu Junbei, and she couldn't see Pei Xianglin's expression at this moment, but she could also imagine how weak she was now.

"Miss Pei," Chu Junbei said in a light voice, "There are some things that others can't understand, it doesn't mean that I can't understand them, don't say it, everyone's faces are good-looking, what do you say?" ”

Pei Xianglin stiffened, raised her head suddenly, and happened to meet Chu Junbei's eyes with a little warning.

What does Chu Junbei mean by this? Do you see something?

Although she had such a guess in her heart, she couldn't show it, so she could only pretend to be confused: "Mr. Chu, what are you talking about?" I don't understand ......."

Without waiting for Chu Junbei to speak, she took another breath abruptly, frowned and said, "However, since Mr. Chu wants to vouch for Miss Qiao, then I can't insist anymore." That's it. ”

Her words sounded generous, but Chu Junbei could hear it, and it was even more unrelenting.

She made such a generous appearance, as if she was oppressed and had to hold her hand.

Qiao Ran also heard it, she poked out her little head from behind Chu Junbei, and defended herself very seriously: "I really didn't take it, I don't know why it was in my bag." ”

Chu Junbei smiled faintly, "Did you hear that?" ”

These four words, he said to Pei Xianglin.

Pei Xianglin hated her teeth so much that she wanted to scratch Qiao Ran's innocent little face with one claw.

I originally wanted to clean up Qiao Ran and give her some color, but I didn't expect Chu Junbei to protect her so much.

The worst thing is that she has to pretend not to care on the surface.

But she didn't want to just let go of this opportunity, if she missed it, she didn't know when she would find it.

When she was thinking about what to do, a person came in at the door, almost trotted in front of Xie Ruiyu, bowed down and said, "Mr. Xie, Pei Lao is here." ”

Hearing this, Pei Xianglin's eyes lit up, and Xie Ruiyu hurriedly went to the door to greet Pei Lao.

Pei Lao was on crutches in his hand, his hair was full of luxury, and his back was already bent, and when he saw Xie Ruiyu coming to help him, he smiled kindly: "Ruiyu, I'm late, and I want you to come out to pick me up in person." ”

Xie Ruiyu responded humbly: "Don't say that, Pei Lao, it's my honor for you to come." ”

Over there, Pei Xianglin also hurriedly walked over and said in a loud voice: "Grandpa, you have to help me make the decision!" ”

She is the eldest lady of the Pei family, Pei Lao is her backer, even if Chu Junbei doesn't give her face, she must give Pei Lao face.

Pei Xianglin made this calculation in her heart.

Sure enough, as soon as Pei Lao saw her so aggrieved, he asked, "Xianglin, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I ......" Pei Xianglin was even more aggrieved, and even choked up, "Grandpa, I almost lost this bracelet." ”

Pei Lao has a very good relationship with his deceased wife, and this bracelet was left to Pei Xianglin by his deceased wife, when he heard that he almost lost it, he was also anxious and asked, "What's going on?" ”

This time, without waiting for Pei Xianglin to speak, Lin Weiwei trotted over, "Old Pei, a thief came to today's banquet and stole Miss Pei's bracelet, if Miss Pei hadn't found out earlier, the thief would have run away." ”

Qiao Ran's eyelashes, who were hiding behind Chu Junbei, trembled, and she whispered to defend herself: "I'm not a thief......"

Although her voice was not loud, every word was heard into Chu Junbei's ears.

When he turned around, Chu Junbei saw that Qiao Ran's body was small, his head was hanging down, and his whole body was tense.

For no reason, my heart suddenly felt like someone had grabbed it, it hurt.

Frowning, Chu Junbei grabbed Qiao Ran's wrist.

His palms were warm, and his fingertips were covered with a thin layer of calluses.

He shook it suddenly, Qiao Ran's wrists trembled, a thin layer of goosebumps appeared on his arms, and when he looked up, he saw Chu Junbei's dark eyes looking at him, and he also saw his own figure reflected in Chu Junbei's eyes.

It's embarrassing, it's embarrassing...... Just like when he first appeared in front of Xie Ruiyu, it was so ugly.

"Chu Junbei ......" Qiao Ran's nose was sour, knowing that this person believed in him, and he didn't need to explain himself, but he still couldn't help but say, "It has nothing to do with me." ”

Chu Junbei's eyebrows frowned, and then he said, "I know." ”

The voice was very low, as if he was deliberately suppressing some emotions, but the trust in it was very strong, and Qiao Ran could feel it.

Before Qiao Ran had time to be happy and grateful, she was pulled forward, and Chu Junbei's clear and beautiful voice floated into her ears: "Follow me." ”

She was already being pulled, and she uncontrollably followed Chu Junbei's footsteps.

She originally thought that Chu Junbei should have dragged her to escape from this place of right and wrong and send her home.

But he didn't expect that Chu Junbei actually pulled her and went directly to Pei Lao, "Pei Lao, this matter is ...... Pei Lao? ”

Before Chu Junbei's words were finished, he saw Pei Lao staring at Qiao Ran, and a pair of cloudy old eyes actually exuded fine light.

Men are sometimes like beasts, they have a strong desire to possess people or things that belong to them.

Once you are marked with your own mark, then when others look at it, they will feel whether the gaze is not good and whether it has a purpose.

And Chu Junbei is more possessive than ordinary men in this regard, so as soon as he came into contact with Pei Lao's gaze, he pulled the person behind him.

Frowning slightly, Chu Junbei's tone became a little heavier, with a little reminder: "Pei Lao." ”

Seeing Qiao Ran disappear from his sight, Pei Lao came back to his senses, looked at Chu Junbei and asked, "Junbei, are you here too?" ”

Chu Junbei: "......"

I'm not just here, I just spoke to you.

After cleaning up his emotions, Chu Junbei coughed dryly to relieve the embarrassment, and thought about helping Qiao Ran explain.

However, before he could say anything to explain, he heard Pei Lao's voice first: "That girl just now, is it your friend?" ”

Pei Xianglin felt that Pei Lao's reaction seemed a little wrong, but she couldn't care about it so much, she just wanted to seize this opportunity to teach Qiao Ran a lesson, so she hurriedly answered in front of Chu Junbei: "Grandpa, she stole my bracelet." ”

At this moment, Pei Lao's face changed slightly, and the light in his eyes dimmed a little.

Thinking that Pei Lao was angry, Pei Xianglin immediately added fuel to the fire: "Fortunately, there are Miss Lin and Miss He, they helped me find the bracelet, otherwise-"

Before she finished her words, she listened to Pei Laodao: "It's nonsense!" ”

Lin Weiwei and He Yuanyuan, who originally wanted to come forward to invite credit, stopped at this time, and even Pei Xianglin was stunned, and only after two seconds did she blink her eyes and ask, "Grandpa, are you...... What do you say? ”

Pei Lao turned his head and glared at her directly, "How could she steal your bracelet?" ”

"How could it be?" Pei Xianglin subconsciously retorted, "My bracelet was found in her handbag, who would it be if she didn't steal it?" ”

Chu Junbei didn't believe that Qiao Ran would steal things from the beginning, and now when he heard Pei Xianglin say this in front of Pei Lao, he said lightly: "Miss Pei, if there is no evidence, you'd better not talk nonsense." ”

The voice was faint, but it had a clear warning meaning.

Pei Lao looked behind Chu Junbei, "Little girl, come out and let me see." ”

Qiao Ran swallowed and walked out from behind Chu Junbei.

She could feel that Chu Junbei didn't want her to come out, maybe she felt that something had changed, or maybe she felt that it was not the right time for her to come out at this time.

But she came out anyway.

The bracelet was not taken by her, and now that the elders of the Pei family are here, she should also make it clear that she doesn't want to be treated as a thief by others wherever she goes in the future.

So she came to Pei Lao's face, looked at the other party and said, "Hello, Miss Pei's bracelet is not from me, I don't know what's going on, please believe me." ”

Pei Lao's eyes that had just darkened lit up again at this moment, and he didn't know if it was because of his age, but he was still a little moist.

He trembled and stretched out a hand to touch Qiao Ran's face, but Qiao Ran was frightened and quickly took a step back.

Chu Junbei blocked in front of her in an instant, frowning and said, "Old Pei, you ......"

"Junbei, you let me." Pei Lao's voice was a little hoarse, "Let me see...... Let me see my granddaughter. ”

As soon as Pei Lao's words came out, everyone was in an uproar, whether it was Pei Xianglin, He Yuanyuan, Lin Weiwei, Chu Junbei, Xie Ruiyu, all of them had unbelievable expressions on their faces.

Even Qiao Ran's eyes widened.

What did Pei Lao say? Say she's his granddaughter? How is this possible?

She froze in place, and before she could recover from such a change, Pei Lao had already bypassed Chu Junbei to her face, took her hand, and stared at her face with a pair of eyes.

The more I looked, the wetter my eyes became, the redder my eyes became, and even in the back, two lines of old tears rolled down in front of so many people, and I muttered: "It's really like...... You look like ......."

In the past few years, Pei Lao has been looking for his granddaughter, but there has been no clue, but he didn't expect to meet here today.

This is fate, this is Pei Rong forgiving him, right? He thought to himself, his heart, which had been gloomy for many years, seemed to be suddenly shrouded in a piece of sunshine, warm.

Over there, Pei Xianglin couldn't accept such a change the most, and suddenly said, "Grandpa, what are you talking nonsense?" How can it be? She's a thief! ”

Chu Junbei frowned suddenly, his eyes swept towards Pei Xianglin coldly, and covered her in it, "Miss Pei, please be careful!" ”

Pei Xianglin opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but when she saw that Pei Lao was also dissatisfied with her, she swallowed back the words unconsciously when she came to her mouth.

Staring at Pei Xianglin for a while, and then staring at Qiao Ran, Pei Lao asked, "Xianglin, you said that she took your bracelet?" ”
