Chapter 13: Another Year of Chinese New Year's Eve
After a rain, Nandu entered the late autumn, getting colder and colder day by day, and when I went out, I had to put on a windbreaker that was wrapped around my feet, and I felt at ease when I put on a scarf, otherwise I always felt that a gust of wind would be cold from head to toe, Nangong Pei'er lay on the sofa in Si Shao's office and looked at Si Shao, who was immersed in work, and asked: "Second brother, when will the eldest brother come back?"
Si Shao replied without raising his head: "I don't know."
"Second brother, do you say that when the eldest brother comes back, will he find the fourth child?"
"Maybe."
Si Shao's female secretary knocked on the door and came in, she was already accustomed to Nangong Pei'er lying on the sofa, and walked straight to Si Shao's desk and handed the document to Si Shao and said, "Mr. Si, this document needs your signature."
Si Shao glanced up at the secretary, stretched out his hand to take it, quickly signed and handed the document to the secretary again, and when he saw the secretary's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he couldn't help but ask: "Is there anything else?"
"Mr. Si, Miss Zhang said that she made an appointment with you for dinner tonight, but she didn't determine the time, she just called and asked what time is tonight's appointment?"
Nangong Pei'er heard the secretary's words, got up from the sofa, and walked towards Si Shao.
Si Shao suddenly remembered this matter, raised his watch and glanced at it, and said to the secretary: "You tell Miss Zhang, at seven o'clock tonight, Moran will live in Box No. 1."
Before the secretary could answer, Nangong Pei'er walked to Si Shao's side and naturally stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around Si Shao's neck, and asked him unhappily: "Second brother, do you have a date tonight?"
The secretary next to him was a little embarrassed when he looked at Nangong Pei'er's sudden movements, although he knew that Nangong Pei'er was Si Shao's sister, but he didn't see any sister who seemed to be intimate between lovers to her brother.
"Business matters." Si Shao was flustered by Nangong Pei'er, and immediately went to push Nangong Pei'er, who knew that she would not let go even if she used her strength, and pouted: "Second brother, can you go to dinner today and take me there, I haven't been to Moranju for a long time."
"Miss Nangong, Si always goes to talk about business, not to play." The secretary smiled and quipped, but attracted Nangong Pei'er's cold eyes, smiled awkwardly at the moment, and stopped talking.
"Second brother, is that Miss Zhang beautiful?" Nangong Pei'er let go of her hand, and asked as she walked to the sofa, her tone already cold.
Si Shao knew that Nangong Pei'er was angry, so he waved his hand to the secretary at the moment, and the secretary nodded and turned around and went out and closed the door. Si Shao saw Nangong Pei'er take her schoolbag and go out, so he shouted: "Pei'er, are you going home?" I'll ask Aze to come and pick you up, and you wait for Aze to come before leaving. ”
"No, I know the way." Nangong Pei'er refused coldly, and when she went out, she slammed the door a little louder than usual, Si Shao looked at the closed door and smiled helplessly.
Nangong Pei'er got out of the NSP building and took a taxi and went straight to Moranju. On the way, she called Nangong Ze again and asked Nangong Ze to come over and eat with her. When she got off the car at the door of Moranju, she saw Nangong Ze waiting at the door.
"Why are you thinking of coming here for dinner today?" Seeing her expression, Nangong Ze stretched out his hand and put his arm on her shoulder and walked into Mo Ranju, saying as he walked: "Even if this is opened by the eldest brother, it is too luxurious for the two of us to come for a meal."
"Third brother, let me ask you a question?" Nangong Pei'er suddenly stopped, turned her head and looked at Nangong Ze with a serious expression.
Nangong Ze saw that Nangong Pei'er was different from usual today, so he got up seriously at the moment, let go of her, stood aside and looked at her, and asked, "What's the problem?"
"Do you think grandpa loves grandma?"
"That's for sure."
"Does Dad love Mom so much?"
"Definitely."
"Big brother also loves Yi Xiaosi?"
"That's right."
"Then do you think the second brother loves me?"
"That's for sure, our three brothers love you very much."
"I'm talking about love between men and women."
"......" Nangong Ze was blocked, and suddenly found that he had stepped on a pit, how could he answer this question, shouldn't he ask Si Shao directly?
Seeing that Nangong Ze was silent, Nangong Pei'er turned around with a cold face and walked out: "Don't say it, I know."
"Skipping meals?" Nangong Ze chased after him and asked.
"I don't want to eat it, I don't want to wait until I see Si Shao in the middle of the meal."
Nangong Ze looked at Nangong Pei'er's back in surprise and panicked in his heart, Nangong Pei'er had never directly called Si Shao's name, and now he should be so angry when he directly called Si Shao's name. He began to wonder how Si Shao provoked Nangong Pei'er again, and sent a text message to Si Shao at the moment.
And Si Shao, who received the text message, was on the way to Moranju, when he saw a text message suddenly flashing in his mobile phone: Second brother, why did you offend your little sister today, she was so angry that she called your name directly. Si Shao smiled bitterly, he really didn't mess with Nangong Pei'er today, I don't know why she was suddenly unhappy.
Nangong Ze also wanted to ask Nangong Pei'er why he was squatting behind the Roman pillar and didn't leave, when he saw a car driving not far away, it was Si Shao's black Cayenne, Nangong Ze was about to go over to say hello when he was stopped by Nangong Pei'er.
Si Shao's car came over with a white Audi, the owner of the white Audi was a woman wearing a white suit, her long straight black hair lined with her delicate and elegant face made people very comfortable, Nangong Pei'er heard her shout: "Ah Shao." The voice is crisp and gentle like water.
Si Shao smiled and nodded at the woman, made a gesture of false invitation, and walked with the woman to the Moran House. Seeing this, Nangong Ze asked Nangong Pei'er in a low voice: "Little sister, who is she?" It seems that he is very familiar with the second brother. ”
"Ask your second brother to go!" Nangong Pei'er yelled angrily, but she cared more and more about the word A Shao shouted by the woman, which was extremely unhappy.
Nangong Ze was confused by Nangong Pei'er's inexplicable anger, touched the back of his head and asked tentatively, "That's the second brother's girlfriend?"
As soon as Nangong Ze's words fell, he saw Nangong Pei'er glaring at him resentfully, which made him furious, thinking of the question Nangong Pei'er asked, he couldn't react anymore, what happened to the person in front of him, he was really an idiot.
"Pei'er, you really like the second brother." As soon as Nangong Ze asked about his birth, Nangong Pei'er kicked at him, he suddenly felt a pain in his knees, and watched Nangong Pei'er walk away with bared teeth, cursing himself in his heart, knowing why he still teased the tiger's whiskers.
"I don't like it." Nangong Pei'er strode away and said a word without looking back. Nangong Ze rubbed his knees and immediately followed her.
That night, Nangong Pei'er took out the NVE contract and read it over and over again, but the pen in her hand did not sign in the column of Party B for a long time. At the beginning, she used the stage name Liangpei to participate in the singer selection competition, and she didn't want to go this way all the time, she just wanted to use the opportunity of that competition to come back, so that she didn't reply directly when an agent in NVE wanted to sign her.
But after thinking about it, I thought about it for almost a year.
In the end, she heard a noise coming from downstairs, except for the room when she walked to the staircase and heard someone talking on the first floor, it was Si Shao who came back.
She didn't know what mood she was in at the moment, it seemed that it was reasonable for Si Shao to fall in love with someone, and even get married and have children, but she couldn't understand why this person couldn't be her?
Since the day she came back, Si Shao really just regarded her as a younger sister to her, and never showed other thoughts, so she was complacent and didn't dare to take that step, until she saw the woman next to Si Shao today, she realized that she was very unhappy.
Si Shao went upstairs, and at the staircase on the third floor, he saw Nangong Pei'er looking at the ground in a daze, and stopped at the corner of the stairs in surprise and looked at Nangong Pei'er and shouted: "Pei'er, why haven't you slept yet?"
Nangong Pei'er heard Si Shao calling her, raised her head slowly and looked at Si Shao with a calm face, she didn't speak for a long time, Si Shao saw this and took steps up to the third floor, walked to Nangong Pei'er and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Sullen? Is it because I didn't take you to dinner today? My dinner today is about business, not dating......"
"Second brother, you don't have to explain to me, I just want to go downstairs and find something to eat." Nangong Pei'er interrupted Si Shao's words, lifted his steps and walked downstairs, Si Shao watched Nangong Pei'er go downstairs, and didn't say a word for a long time before turning around and walking to his room.
Nangong Pei'er stopped at the staircase on the second floor and smiled bitterly, waited for ten minutes before going upstairs back to the room to sign the contract of NVE, and called the agent again, proposing that his only condition was not to show his face under any circumstances, just like when he participated in the competition before.
The agent agreed to Nangong Pei'er's request, and hung up the phone after saying some precautions and information to be prepared for going to NVE.
Nangong Pei'er walked to the dressing mirror and stretched out her hand to pull off her high-necked shirt, looking at the slap and hideous scar, a sneer pulled up at the corner of her mouth, and she felt very ahorny when she reached out to cover it, and she didn't understand why she chose to leave this scar in the first place? Although it was kept, it was never exposed, what is the picture?
She remembered the time when Yi Yan went to Chengdu to save her, and when she saw the scar on her neck, her eyes were red, and she choked up and persuaded her: This scar should be removed back to Nandu.
At that time, she shook her head and said, "No, because that scar is also part of her experience." But now that I think about it, I don't necessarily have to remember what I have experienced, and it is not the best thing that remains, perhaps, the unknown is worth looking forward to.
Early the next morning, Nangong Peier went to the plastic surgery hospital to inquire about the scar removal, and after the doctor formulated a treatment plan for her, she signed and left the hospital.
Nangong Pei'er started as a trainee of NVE, and a group of newcomers kept attending classes every day to improve themselves, in addition to this, she also continued her professional schoolwork every day, busy with her feet not touching the ground, Nangong Pei'er knew that Nangong Pei'er did not object when she signed the agreement with NVE, on the contrary, they encouraged her to do what she liked, and she didn't know if she liked singing, but in addition to singing and taking classes, she felt that she had nothing to do, and she was very lonely.
Time always passes quietly unconsciously, on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone in Nangong Old Mansion was happy and just had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and laughed in the living room, someone rang the doorbell, Nangong Peier stepped out first to check the situation, and when she arrived at the gate, she didn't see a figure, and when she turned around in confusion and heard a loud cry, she trembled all over.
