Chapter 12 Pei Jian, he is still looking at the girl!
What kind of evil fate is this?
Nianxi had clearly tried her best to avoid Pei Jian, and even ignored her brother's talk about the Imperial College at home. She had already started a new life and met a new man, but in the end she found that her old love and her new love were a pair of good brothers.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and it was so hot that people were sweating, but Nianxi felt a cool breeze on her back.
If she had known about their relationship earlier, she would never have allowed herself to have any contact with Gu Ci.
But things have come to this, Pei Jian will be here soon.
Is she going to run away?
Cut off contact with Gu Ci again?
Not worth it!
Nian Xi slowly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the kumquat snow bubble prepared by Gu Ci and took a big sip. The cool, sour and sweet taste calmed her heart.
Pei Jian was now just a stranger whom she had never met before, so there was really no need for her to panic.
"What a fate," Nian Xi sorted out her emotions and when she looked up again, she had calmed down, "You actually live so close to my brother."
Now it was Qin Lang's turn to be stunned.
"What, what do you mean?!"
"My little cousin and Wen Qingheng's sister are actually the same person! Gu Ci, you hid it really well!"
Qin Lang was still in shock when he saw a figure suddenly appear from the side and rush into the flower hall.
It’s almost like a residual shadow——
I never thought that Wen Qingheng, who is usually so gentle, could run so fast!
Qin Lang sighed as he stepped forward to stop the fight, "Jinghe, Jinghe, what are you doing? Today is a good day for Qingye, don't scare our sister!"
Wen Qingheng and Pei Jian were walking slowly behind him before he said, "My sister has been cute since she was little. Not only is she lovable, but even cats and dogs on the street like to play with her..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw his so-called adorable sister sitting in the flower hall, looking up and talking to Gu Ci with a smile.
Not only were the two of them very close to each other, but Gu Ci even reached out to pick the fallen flowers from his sister's hair!
Even a saint can’t stand it!
"Gu Ci, where is your little cousin?" Wen Qingheng was half a head shorter than Gu Ci, but the momentum of grabbing Gu Ci's collar completely overwhelmed him.
"Now you come to mess with my sister again, what kind of man are you!"
He has always been kind and gentle, and unless he was extremely angry, he would hardly show his manic and furious side.
Gu Ci had been feeling guilty, so he had not dared to be honest with Wen Qingheng. But when Wen Qingheng questioned his loyalty as a man, he immediately became angry.
"My family is related to the Marquis of Pingyang. The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Guangping is Nian'er's cousin and married to the son of the Marquis of Pingyang. So Nian'er is my distant cousin! When did I ever lie to you?"
When it comes to talking, Gu Ci is much more eloquent than Wen Qingheng.
Wen Qingheng said "You, you..." for a long time, and then he shouted, "You dare to call me Nian'er!"
He stepped forward to throw a punch, but he just stood up and let him hit him. The servants didn't dare to step forward to persuade him. Qin Lang was simply overwhelmed. He held Wen Qingheng and shouted outside the flower hall, "Shi Zhang, what are you doing? Come over here and help!"
Nian Xi was originally sitting, and when she heard Qin Lang's words, she turned her head naturally, and her eyes collided with Pei Yan's.
Their eyes met.
Nian Xi calmly withdrew her gaze, as if she was looking at a stranger.
…
Pei Jian felt a tightness in his chest when he was looked at by that strange gaze.
From the moment he gave up on Nianxi, he thought that she would have a brand new life.
He didn't intend to avoid her. The capital was so small that they would always run into each other. He was just her brother's classmate, and they would not have any other intersections.
He had planned everything.
But when he heard the names of Nian Xi and Gu Ci behind the flower wall, he felt that fate was playing a ridiculous joke on him.
Pei Jian could never have imagined that Gu Ci's sweetheart would be his ex-wife, Nian Xi.
And they will meet in this way.
There was a lot of commotion over there, but Pei Jian's mind was blank. At this moment, he was like an outsider, guarding his secrets and being out of tune with the bustling world.
"Shi Zhang, Shi Zhang!"
"Pei Jian!"
Qin Lang called him loudly, but Pei Jian seemed to be immobilized and could not move. His eyes were fixed on Nian Xi, who was beside Gu Ci.
Qin Lang only felt a "click".
Pei Jian is calm and composed, but he has never lost his composure like this before.
Wen Qingheng's sister looks like a fairy, but staring at her for so long is too rude!
Let Gu Ci, the jealous person, see this and not go crazy.
Qin Lang turned his head and saw Wen Qingheng was still entangled with Gu Ci and had not yet noticed Pei Jian. Nian Xi lowered her head, her long eyelashes drooping, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
OK, OK.
Qin Lang turned his head again. Pei Jian, he was still looking at the girl!
Die!
Qin Lang, with his man's intuition, was able to detect that something was wrong with Pei Jian today. After living in the same courtyard for so long, Pei Jian's eyes when looking at Nian Xi were very different.
It was completely different from his usual look.
Thinking of this, he decisively withdrew from the flower hall battlefield. He walked to Pei Yan and patted his shoulder, "You don't know yet? Gu Ci's little cousin and Wen Qingheng's sister are the same person!"
Pei Jian seemed to come back to his senses and turned to look at the other two in the flower hall.
Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to himself, "Wen Qingheng's sister is indeed pretty, otherwise it's still Gu Ci who has a sharp eye and a quick hand."
Pei Shizhang, you are already one step too late. It is impossible to see it now.
Who knew that while he was talking, Pei Jian's eyes turned back to Nian Xi. Qin Lang complained bitterly, why was Pei Jian so stubborn even though he had said so much?
"But no matter how pretty my sister is, she's still not as good as cousin Xu... Hey, hey, I haven't finished what I'm saying yet!"
Pei Jian thought Qin Lang was sick. Why was he comparing Nian Xi with others for no reason?
I was stunned just now because I saw Nian Xi unexpectedly and was caught off guard.
After he had calmed down, he didn't bother to listen to what Qin Lang had to say anymore and walked up the stone steps.
In the flower hall, Wen Qingheng had also stopped talking. After all, he was a kind person, and even though he was extremely angry, he could only say a few words:
"You are so despicable to deceive people like this."
"A gentleman should keep his word. Your actions are shameful."
Gu Ci just lay there and let himself be mocked. No matter what Wen Qingheng said, he would always add, "But I mean it sincerely."
In fact, he had more disgusting words to say, but he felt embarrassed because Nian Xi was present.
Wen Qingheng: ...
When Pei Jian walked into the flower hall, Wen Qingheng had already realized Gu Ci's sinister intentions. He became even angrier when he saw Gu Ci's eyes glued to his sister and his smile full of affection.
He immediately said, "Nian'er, go back to your mother first, I will come to look for you later."
Nian Xi immediately stood up obediently.
Gu Ci stood up immediately and said, "I'll take you there."
Wen Qingheng said coldly, "No need."
The atmosphere was a little tense for a moment.
Nian Xi turned around and gave Gu Ci an appeasing smile. Just as she was about to speak, Pei Jian spoke:
"I haven't paid my respects to Madam Wang yet. Why don't you come with me, Miss Wen?"
