Chapter 68: Too Much Deception
Zhou Ruo was so frightened that his shoulders shook, and tears fell straight down.
She took a step closer and raised her hand to touch Pei Che's arm: "Ah Che, when did you know?" ”
"Are you all taking me for a fool?" Pei Che's heart hurt too much, and his voice was hoarse as if he was tearing cloth, "I hid it from me when I was abroad, and I will continue to hide it from me when I return to China, if I can't contact Xiao Nian and send someone to investigate the cause of the accident in the Shen family, do you plan to hide it from me for the rest of my life!" ”
Zhou Ruo stroked his arm one by one, wanting to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start for a while, and his words turned pale: "Ah Che, the matter has passed......"
"I can't get by!"
It was not early, and all the servants of the house went to sleep, and the silence was terrible, and the roar echoed in the huge living room, like a beast bound by ropes, unable to break free.
Zhou Ruo wiped his tears and was powerless to explain: "I didn't know about it in advance, I never asked about the company's affairs, you know." There may be something hidden in it, don't be sad yet, okay? ”
"I can't find Xiao Nian! Do you know how I feel? Pei Che was really powerless, his eyes were full of sadness and depression, "After the accident in the Shen family, did you care about Xiao Nian?" Have you ever wondered where she would go if she was alone? Haven't you always treated her like a daughter-in-law? ”
Every question was asked so that Zhou Ruo was speechless, and his conscience was even more uneasy.
"What's the noise at night?"
The door of the study was pulled open from the inside, and Pei Fengnan walked out, dressed in dark blue plaid pajamas and a black thin plush jacket on the outside, his brows furrowed deeply, and the majesty of the head of the family could not be shaken.
Zhou Ruo turned her back and quickly wiped away her tears, she knew her husband's temper, if he knew that tonight's quarrel was caused by Ah Che, he would inevitably punish him.
Ah Che is the only son of the Pei family, the only heir, the Pei family will depend on him in the future, and her husband has always been strict with him, not allowing him to make mistakes in any aspect.
"Dad, you're just in time." Pei Che vented the dissatisfaction in his heart through the smell of wine, "Tell me, why did you attack the Shen family?" Uncle Shen treats you like a brother and sister, thinks about you in everything, and even takes you to do big projects to make money, you calculate him behind your back, kill him, and indirectly kill Aunt Yin, have you ever thought about how the couple can rest in peace under Jiuquan? ! ”
"Ache!"
Zhou Ruo shouted anxiously and fearfully, trying to stop him from continuing, but he was higher and sharper, with a strong smell of gunpowder.
Pei Fengnan's face changed, and his clenched fists trembled with force, obviously angry.
"Ache, apologize to your dad." Zhou Ruo's face turned pale, blocking between father and son, for fear that her husband would be so angry that she would act, so after talking to Pei Che, she turned her head and persuaded her husband, "My son has drunk too much, don't be like him, and when he wakes up, he will regret it." ”
Pei Che is not afraid at all, he has been patient since the day he returned home, and today he finally broke out: "I am not drunk, I know what I am talking about, I just feel sarcastic, my father taught me to be honest when I was young, but he is a treacherous villain who kills his brother." ”
"Ache!" Zhou Ruo shouted again, and the tears that had been stopped instantly rolled out of his eyes, and he couldn't help shaking his head, "Don't say it, don't say it!" ”
Pei Fengnan pushed away his wife who was in the middle, raised his hand and slapped Pei Che.
His hand strength was very strong, and Pei Che's face immediately swollen, and there were traces of five fingers.
"Old man, what are you doing here?!"
Zhou Ruo hugged her husband's arm tightly with both hands, the clothes draped on her shoulders fell to the ground, and she stepped on a few feet in a panic, not bothering to pick it up.
Pei Fengnan pointed at Pei Che's nose and scolded angrily: "Uneducated things, if you say such a rebellious thing to your father, it's better to be killed." ”
Zhou Ruo couldn't persuade him, so he cried vigorously, crying with begging: "Ah Che, tell your father that you were wrong, and beg him to forgive you." ”
Pei Che didn't say a word of apology, and left this suffocating home.

The second half of the night was spent in the bar, the day was about to dawn, the city was waking up, and the son of the Pei family fell down like a puddle of mud and planted in the leather card seat.
When he returned to China, he was handsome and introverted, and he did not take over as the president of Pei's Group.
On the first day of the New Year, several hot searches brought Pei Che's name.
Pei Fengnan had not slept all night, and when he got up in the morning and saw the newspaper of the day, the front page was a negative report on his son, and he was so angry that he had high blood pressure. I didn't eat breakfast early in the morning and took medicine first, so I forced myself to call my assistant and contact the crisis public relations to deal with it.
Recently, for the group's lost projects and customers, Pei Fengnan held meetings and tried his best to remedy it.
In the bar, Pei Che woke up that night, and he had a dream after getting drunk.
I dreamed that summer, he took Xiao Nian to the resort mountain villa to escape the summer, he climbed the tree to pick yellow peaches, she stood under the tree wearing a white dress, looked up at him, smiling like a flower, so innocent and beautiful.
She stretched out the white skirt with both hands, using it to pick up the peaches he had dropped, and she didn't care if the skirt was stained by the juice, and bent her eyes to direct him.
The sunlight sifted through the cracks in the leaves and swayed on her.
"Ah Che, over there, there's the biggest one over there, I'm going to eat that one. Be careful, don't fall. ”
Pei Che closed his eyes, and her voice echoed in his ears and head, but he couldn't find her anymore.
After waking up, Pei Che took a sip of ice water in a daze, recalled the details of the dream over and over again, and longed to go back in time.
Suddenly, he remembered an important detail that he had overlooked. That summer, there was another girl who followed them to the resort, who seemed to be Xiao Nian's cousin, who lived in other places and rarely interacted with the Shen family, only coming to Beicheng to play during the long vacation.
Which city does that girl live in, Pei Che hadn't asked before, and he didn't pay attention to girls other than Xiao Nian.
But it may be a clue.
Pei Che rubbed his face, his head hurt very much after a hangover, and when he thought that it was possible to find Xiao Nian, he was full of strength, and he didn't want to wait for a moment, so he immediately called the people under his hand and asked them to check Shen Jianian's cousin's phone and address.

After the Yin family was acquired by the Qin Group, it was integrated into a department responsible for building materials and decoration.
Yin Chengde couldn't even get a position as a supervisor, let alone contact the management of the group, the Qin family sent him an idle position, he was depressed for days, and he relied on alcohol to numb himself.
What is called a bamboo basket to draw water, he has experienced it.
Originally, the abacus sounded, as long as his daughter married into the Qin family, he could use the power of the Qin family to bring the crumbling Yin family back to life, and in the end, he was gnawed to the bones.
Yin Shuyao also had an unsatisfactory life, and was angry with Qin Fan at home, so she ran to her mother's house twice in three days to complain to Hu Yuzhi.
Hu Yuzhi was also very distressed, and she was in no mood to go to the beauty salon, and she was focused on maintaining her daughter's marriage.
On this morning, the doorbell rang, and the maid went over to open the door and politely called out, "Miss, you are back." ”
"Where's my mom?"
Yin Shuyao cried, her voice was hoarse, and her makeup couldn't hide her red and swollen eyelids.
Less than two months after getting married, she already felt that this life was too long to go on.
Hu Yuzhi was wearing a purple cheongsam, with a shawl of old flowers on her shoulders, and had just come down from the upstairs in high heels, ready to go out to play mahjong.
Yin Shuyao ran in without changing her shoes, threw herself into her mother's arms and cried: "Mom, Qin Fan is too deceitful!" ”
"What's wrong again?" Hu Yuzhi patted her shoulder to reassure, "Isn't it only a few days since you coaxed?" ”
"The old lady wants me to add Ding to the Qin family, I told Qin Fan, he said that even if he made an illegitimate child, he would not let me give birth to him, is this what people say?" Yin Shuyao disregarded her image, crying and making trouble, "He took women home every once in a while, and pestered me shamelessly in my bed, so as to humiliate me, and I can't live my life!" ”
Hu Yuzhi can't go out to play mahjong is a little annoying, after all, she is the only daughter, no matter how irritable she is, she has to endure it, and patiently explain her: "It's easy to do things for children, don't cry first, mom will teach you." ”
The mother and daughter went back to the room to talk privately, Yin Shuyao's bag fell on the sofa in the living room, and the mobile phone rang several times.
The maid was afraid that someone else would have something important to find Yin Shuyao, so she took her bag upstairs and knocked on the door: "Miss, someone has called you several times." ”
Yin Shuyao was comforted by her mother in her arms, and felt much better, when she took the bag from the maid, the bell was still ringing, and she took out her mobile phone.
There is no note on the number displayed on the screen, and the attribution is Beicheng.
Yin Shuyao hesitated and connected: "Hey, which one?" ”
"I'm Pei Che."
The voice of the person on the other side of the phone was mellow and beautiful, compared with Qin Fan's daily sarcastic tone, it was simply a heaven and an earth, Yin Shuyao was stunned for a moment.
"Is that the Pei Che I know?" Yin Shuyao couldn't believe that Pei Che would take the initiative to contact her.
When she first fell in love, she fell in love with Pei Che at first sight in Beicheng, but unfortunately that man's eyes were never on Shen Jianian, and she couldn't see anyone else.
"Yes, we've seen it." Pei Che didn't go around in circles, explaining the intention of making this call, "Do you know Xiao Nian's whereabouts?" I've been looking for her for a long time, and you're her cousin, so you should know. ”
