Chapter 594 She's Very Well-Behaved (Twenty-Three)
Shang Shang didn't believe it. She knew that Shang Shiyi and Bian Suxi both preferred a leisurely and quiet life, even though they really wanted her to stay there.
But if she actually moved in, it would disrupt their lives, and she didn't think that was a good idea.
Seeing that Shang Shang didn't believe her, Shen Fanxing grabbed her finger and forced her to make a pinky promise: "If you move there within a week, you have to buy me a new phone, an expensive one."
Shang Shang had no objection: "Sure, even if I don't move there, I can still buy it for you."
Shen Fanxing chuckled, "How come you have such a good personality?"
While the two were talking, Jiang Zhizhi called Shen Fanxing to ask if she wanted to come home for dinner that night.
It was said that his uncle, Shang Xingzhou, sent over a box of hairy crabs.
Shen Fanxing glanced at Shangshang: "Let's go back together. Shangshang and I are together."
Jiang Zhizhi was quite puzzled: "You're with Shangshang? Come back together then, be careful on the way."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Fanxing looked at Shang Shang and said, "Let's go buy a bouquet of flowers in a bit, then go home for dinner."
Shang Shang had no objection: "Okay."
Shen Fanxing went out to pick out clothes again, and Shang Shang felt that Shen Fanxing had a lot of energy every day, as if she had inexhaustible energy.
He's very quick-witted; he comes up with an idea in no time.
The two left the company early, since having Shen Fanxing as their boss was practically pointless.
On the way to buy flowers, Shang Shang told Shen Fanxing about Mengmeng: "If Mengmeng and Jia Ni are looking for partners, I'll bring them over so you can meet them and prevent them from being scammed."
Shen Fanxing was surprised: "Your adorable friend, are you really that naive? You've been fooled for eight years? Your brain has been completely brainwashed by the guy."
Shang Shang sighed: "Actually, we can't blame Mengmeng. Shi Jian is quite the actor."
Shen Fanxing shook her head: "She doesn't want to find out, but it's okay. She's still young, so it's alright if she makes a mistake."
Shang Shang laughed: "Fanxing, your tone sounds a bit old-fashioned."
Shen Fanxing chuckled: "Maybe it's because I'm a very clear-headed person in the human world."
The two went to buy a bouquet of flowers and went home. Jiang Zhizhi had already prepared the dishes. When she saw the two of them coming back with the flowers, she smiled and said, "I was just about to remind you to come back early."
Shang Shang wrinkled her nose and sniffed: "Mom, it smells so good."
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and said, "I stewed your favorite plum-flavored pork ribs, and I'll make pineapple shrimp that Fanxing likes later."
Shen Fanxing smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Mom. I wish I could come over for a meal every day."
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and said, "We would be even happier if you could come every day."
She urged the two children to wash their hands and eat some fruit first, saying they would be able to have dinner soon.
Shen Fanxing asked Shang Shang to arrange the flowers. She washed her hands and went to the kitchen to help: "Mom, I'll help you and learn some skills so I can cook for Zhou Zhiyun when we go to Tibet in a couple of days."
Jiang Zhizhi exclaimed in surprise, "You're going to see Zhiyun? Don't stay there for too long, the UV rays are too strong and it's bad for a girl's skin."
Shen Fanxing laughed heartily; "Okay, I'll go take a look and come right back."
...
Pei Yanli also went home that evening, and the atmosphere at home was completely different from that at Shangjia's.
With an overly serious expression, Old Master Pei looked at Pei Yanli, who was returning home for the first time since returning to China, and said with great dissatisfaction: "If I hadn't heard from Pei Che that you were back, I would have thought you weren't coming back from abroad."
Pei Yanli sat upright on the sofa, completely unconcerned about Old Master Pei's sarcasm: "The housekeeper called to say you weren't feeling well, but looking at you, you don't seem unwell at all."
Old Master Pei retorted angrily, "If I hadn't said that, would you have been able to come back?"
Pei Che quickly came over and patted Grandpa Pei's shoulder: "Grandpa, Grandpa, don't be angry. Uncle has finally come back for a visit."
Old Master Pei snorted coldly, then looked at Pei Yanli and said, "Stay for dinner tonight. I have something to say to you."
After saying that, he got up and went upstairs. He was proud of his youngest son, but also angry, because he simply couldn't tame him.
As soon as his grandfather left, Pei Che approached Pei Yanli and said, "Uncle, my chest still hurts. I've already dropped out of school."
Pei Yanli gave him a cold look: "What do you want to say?"
Pei Che hesitated, "Could you move back home? We're all family. Grandpa is very sad that you went back to China and didn't come back. Also, Grandpa thinks my dad and second uncle are useless and wants you to come back and manage the company."
Pei Yanli scoffed: "Indeed, you're a piece of trash. And you, you deserve to have chest pain. What you've done is enough to send you to jail."
Pei Che's face turned pale: "Uncle, I already know I was wrong. Besides, I found out later that Zhou Zhiyi's family is so powerful. If I had known, I wouldn't have dared to do it even if you gave me ten lives."
Pei Yanli frowned: "If it were an ordinary girl, would you be okay with it?"
Pei Che quickly waved his hand: "No, no, my buddy and I were just making a bet that day, we didn't really mean anything."
Pei Yanli glanced at him: "Can someone like this be called a buddy? But could you do me a favor?"
Pei Che's eyes lit up: "Uncle, just tell me, I can definitely do anything you ask."
Pei Yanli considered for a moment: "Steal the household registration book for me."
When he went to university, his household registration was transferred to the school. When he went abroad, Grandpa Pei secretly helped him transfer it back.
The old man knew very well that only by getting hold of Pei Yanli's household registration could he see him; otherwise, he would never see him again, not even on his deathbed.
Pei Che looked at Pei Yanli in shock: "Uncle, the household registration book is in Grandpa's safe. How could I steal it? Grandpa always carries the key with him. What opportunity would I have?"
Pei Yanli stood up: "If you can't do it, then forget it. If you see me on the street in the future, don't greet me, and don't call me Uncle."
Pei Che quickly stopped him: "Wait, Uncle, this isn't impossible. Give me some time, and I'll see if we can steal it."
Pei Yanli patted him on the shoulder: "I believe you can do it."
After saying that, he picked up his clothes and left...
Pei Che felt no pain in his chest anymore. His uncle had entrusted him with such a difficult task, which meant he trusted him a lot.
Suddenly remembering something else, he chased after her, calling out, "Uncle, Uncle..."
He chased after Pei Yanli until they reached the car, blocking his way as he was about to get in: "Uncle, I like Zhou Zhiyi. Do you think there's any chance if I pursue her?"
Pei Yanli stopped pulling the car door and turned around to look at Pei Che running towards him. Pei Che had blond hair that covered one eye and was wearing a tight-fitting suit with his ankles showing.
Pei Che thought his uncle was admiring him, so he quickly flipped his hair and covered his other eye instead: "Uncle, is this a good look for me?"
Pei Yanli frowned: "Aren't there any mirrors in the house?"
Pei Che was taken aback: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Pei Yanli coldly remarked, "Then take a good look in the mirror."
Then get in the car, start the engine, and drive away.
Pei Che stood there, stunned, still somewhat confused: "Uncle! What do you mean...?"
