Chapter 161 Dare to do it but not to face it
At night, private club.
Qin Mingfan followed the waiter to the private room on the second floor. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a man sitting on the leather sofa.
The man was dressed in a suit, with a tall and slender figure and excellent proportions. His three-dimensional and deep facial features were even more striking under the light. His narrow eyes were drooping, and he exuded a cold, noble and elite aura that kept strangers away.
Hearing the voice, the man looked down at the phone screen without even looking up.
Qin Mingfan walked over and saw a video on the screen that looked like a surveillance video. He coughed.
"What are you looking at? You're so fascinated."
Pei Yanchuan immediately turned off the screen and said calmly, "Nothing."
Qin Mingfan didn't care. He took a sip of the wine on the table and said, "Is there any new progress? Is Pei Yushan unable to hold back anymore?"
"……No"
Qin Mingfan paused, then looked up in surprise: "No?"
Then why did you suddenly call him here?
Pei Yanchuan stroked the phone with his fingertips, and his tone was normal: "I just asked you to come out for a drink."
Qin Mingfan: “…”
That's even more rare.
Apart from talking about serious matters, he had never drunk the wine offered by Pei Yanchuan. It was difficult to meet this man normally. When asked, he knew he was accompanying his girlfriend.
Seeing the man frequently looking at his phone with an absent-minded look, and thinking of what Grandma Li had recently said to him, Qin Mingfan raised his eyebrows and leaned back.
He said casually, "By the way, don't you have a girlfriend? When are you going to bring her over to meet you? After all, as your uncle, I'm going to give her a red envelope."
Pei Yanchuan paused: "Next time."
Qin Mingfan glanced at him and said bluntly: "Pei Yanchuan, Grandma Li told me that you locked him up."
The man lowered his eyes and said nothing, his lips stretched into a straight line, but his fingertips pressed against the edge of the phone so hard that their lips turned white.
Qin Mingfan took a sip of wine, thought about the past, and sighed carefully: "Pei Yanchuan, your mother used to be like this. This won't solve the problem, and it will only make things worse."
"It's different, Porcelain is different."
Pei Yanchuan suddenly interrupted.
He raised his eyes, with no discernible emotion in them, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's just that there have been too many things going on lately. When I'm done with all this, she will get back together with me."
“…”
Qin Mingfan actually had complicated feelings about this nephew who suddenly came to him.
After his sister died, the Qin family suddenly declared bankruptcy, and Qin Mingfan went from being a rich second-generation to a pauper overnight. Fortunately, he had some savings, so he didn't starve to death.
He hurried back from abroad and looked for his nephew, wanting to take away his sister's only blood. After all, Pei Yushan was a very selfish person.
But when he went over, the young Pei Yanchuan just looked at him indifferently, as if he were a stranger, and said in a cold voice: "I don't need you to take care of me."
Compared to following his impoverished uncle, following his wealthy father obviously has more prospects.
So Qin Mingfan did not force him.
Until these few days, when he just came back from get off work, he saw a man standing at his door.
The other person had a refined and noble temperament, wearing a custom-made suit and an expensive watch on his wrist. It was obvious that he came from a wealthy family, and most importantly, he was extremely handsome.
He didn't recognize him at first, until the handsome guy suddenly glanced at him and called out softly, "Uncle."
Qin Mingfan was stunned at that time.
Damn, his eldest nephew is so grown up and still so handsome.
After hearing that Pei Yanchuan planned to let him manage the Pei Group, he became even more confused.
He had previously suspected that Qin's bankruptcy was related to Pei Yushan, but he had no evidence. Over the years, his initial enthusiasm had long been shattered by reality.
I just didn't expect that Pei Yanchuan would know everything.
What he didn't expect was that Pei Yanchuan was in exactly the same state as his sister when they were in love.
Qin Mingfan turned his head and took a sip of wine, then glanced at the man on the sofa. After a moment of silence, he said:
"You're not planning on waiting until your girlfriend falls asleep before going back?"
Pei Yanchuan paused, raised his eyelids and glanced at him, without saying a word, as if to agree, then lowered his head to look at his phone again.
Qin Mingfan: “…”
You kid, you dare to do it but not to face it.
Inside the villa, Yang Cici looked up at the time.
The servant placed a glass of milk on the table and said softly, "Miss Yang, the young master has an appointment tonight. You can go upstairs and rest first."
"He didn't say when he would be back?"
"No, I just said it might be late." The maid replied gently.
"Really?" Yang Cici smiled and sat on the sofa, her eyes slowly falling on the table.
She picked up the milk and drank it, then got up and went upstairs. "Okay, I'm going to bed first."
Back in the room, Yang Cici lay on the bed, stretched out her right hand, looked at her empty fingers, and muttered.
"It's quite quick to get the ring."
How could she possibly throw away something so expensive?
Not sure if it was the medicine in the milk taking effect or if Yang Cici was just sleepy, but she yawned and closed her eyes.
But being in an unfamiliar environment, Yang Cici could never sleep well.
In the past, in Pei Yanchuan's apartment, she could at least hold Pei Yanchuan while she slept, but here she slept alone.
My consciousness seemed to be floating on the surface of the sea, drifting up and down, unable to fall into a deep sleep.
Half asleep and half awake, the maid's voice sounded outside the door.
"...Master...you are back."
Then came the man's low voice: "Are you asleep?"
"I've already drunk it. According to the schedule... I'm already asleep."
The chatter was intermittent. Yang Cici felt like she was dreaming, yet it also felt very real. Her eyelids trembled but she couldn't open her eyes.
The next second, the door was opened, and the sound of soft footsteps and clothes being taken off filled the air.
A slender finger hooked the hair away from her face and gently touched her face.
The footsteps gradually moved away from the bed, and then the sound of dripping water came from the bathroom.
After a while, the sound from the bathroom stopped.
The quilt was lifted, and a cool breeze blew in. The bed beside her sank, as if someone was sitting next to her. A familiar scent of shower gel reached her nose.
Yang Cici was in a half-asleep state at this time, unable to distinguish the situation clearly, but subconsciously determined that the person next to her was Pei Yanchuan.
Thinking back to the fact that she hadn't seen anyone today and that he didn't even hug her when she slept, she let out a soft groan of grievance.
Pei Yanchuan was holding a tablet and looking at the photos and games the girls had taken during the day. Suddenly, he heard a faint hum. He was stunned for a moment and subconsciously lowered his head.
Seeing the girl frowning and looking uncomfortable, he put down the tablet, touched the girl's face, and called out hesitantly, "Ci Ci?"
I saw that the girl was still frowning slightly and was not sleeping very well.
He paused, slowly lay down and hugged the girl in his arms, protecting the back of her head with his palms, and bent down to kiss the girl's eyes.
The familiar feeling returned, and Yang Cici's brows relaxed instantly.
Looking at the girl's peaceful sleeping face, Pei Yanchuan lowered his head and rubbed her face silently, his eyes drooping.
The next day, Yang Cici woke up from her dream.
She opened her eyes and looked at the empty seat next to her.
“…”
It seems that this is not going to work.
What's going on? I can't see anyone.
