Chapter 67
Pei Qingnian paused, his eyes wandering between the two of them, finally stopping at his son who was sitting lazily on the soft leather sofa in the distance.
Their eyes met.
The father and son had not seen each other for many days, no less than Shen Yizhi who was studying abroad.
We were in the same city, just a few kilometers apart, and the cars that had parked at our door countless times and then left had never crossed our paths.
Especially now that Pei Yanhe has grown up, he, as a father, seems redundant, and non-essential contact is almost zero.
"Zhizhi, Uncle Pei wants to talk to him alone, is that okay with you?" Pei Qingnian asked with a smile.
Shen Yizhi hesitated and looked behind him.
Pei Yanhe raised his chin towards her, as if to say, it’s okay, go out and wait for me.
"Okay, then you guys have a good chat." Shen Yizhi looked back every few steps with concern before leaving the meeting room.
After she left, the huge conference room fell into complete silence.
Pei Qingnian pulled out a soft chair and calmly sat down opposite him, folding his fingers on his legs and staring sharply at the pair of peach blossom eyes opposite him that were exactly the same as his own.
He is decisive and efficient in the workplace, and exudes an intimidating aura.
Pei Yanhe was calm and composed, supporting his chin with his hand, looking at him lazily with his head tilted, his tone neither cold nor hot.
"If you're not here to help solve the problem, then I suggest you leave quietly without saying a word, turn left, and leave."
"I'll just pretend you haven't been here, and I haven't seen you."
The already precarious relationship between father and son plummeted to a freezing point after hearing this sentence.
Pei Qingnian clenched his teeth, and cracks appeared on his meticulous face. He exhaled deeply, as if to cushion his breath, and then spoke.
"You were the one who started this?"
Since you asked, you are here to help.
Pei Yanhe responded frankly, "Yes."
Pei Qingnian's brow darkened a little, "Did he fight back?"
Pei Yanhe spoke in a casual tone, but his attitude was extremely arrogant. "No one dares to touch me."
In a place where no one noticed, Pei Qingnian's clenched fingers hidden under the table loosened a little, leaving only purple dents on the back of his fingers.
He still had a stern look on his face, "Have you heard of the He family in the south of the city?"
Pei Yanhe did not answer for a moment. He was silent for a while, as if he was searching for this family in his mind. After a long time, he spoke slowly.
"I only heard that Mr. He was a retired veteran who made great contributions in the Korean War. I don't have much other impression of him."
It seems that I haven't completely lost touch with Kyoto yet.
He must understand these things if he wants to inherit the Pei family in the future.
I thought he had given up his inheritance rights and was going out on his own, not caring about these things anymore.
Pei Qingnian's brows relaxed. "The boy you beat up is the only child of the He family. The rest are not a problem. It's just that there will always be a gap between the two families in the future."
Pei Yanhe yawned sleepily, his expression unpleasant. "That's your business. Since you can handle it, there's no need for me to do anything."
"Leave."
He stood up slowly, walked to the door, and just grasped the door handle.
"Don't bully Zhizhi. Be nice to her." Pei Qingnian said to him from behind with a serious tone like an old father.
The cold, hard touch of metal entered his palm, and Pei Yanhe curled his lips, "Don't bother with it."
As soon as I walked out of the meeting room, I saw a human-shaped mushroom squatting next to the door.
A shadow fell on his side. Shen Yizhi came back to his senses from counting the ants and stood up suddenly. Unexpectedly, his vision suddenly went dark and he almost fell to the ground.
Pei Yanhe held her forearms with both hands to help her steady her center of gravity, frowning slightly, "What's the rush?"
Shen Yizhi closed his eyes and recovered. He raised his head and glared at him, feeling that his kindness was being ignored. "Isn't it because I'm afraid that Uncle Pei will cut you into pieces and not even a single body will be left?"
Pei Yanhe couldn't help laughing out loud, and the haze hidden deep in his heart was swept away. His palm slid naturally from her forearm to her wrist, and he naturally took her hand and walked out.
"So now there's half a person standing in front of you."
Shen Yizhi was driven by inertia and followed him, "Stop making jokes."
She got back to the point, "So what's the situation now?"
Pei Yanhe said leisurely: "Since he is here, he can't go back empty-handed."
If I didn't know, I would have thought he was my father.
"I think you and Uncle Pei have been arguing for so many years. It's not a good idea to continue like this. It's better to find a time to talk it out as soon as possible."
Shen Yizhi was completely focused on the matter between him and Uncle Pei, and was taken out of the police station by Pei Yanhe without even noticing, "Pei Shanshan, are you listening to me?"
Pei Yanhe opened the back door and raised his chin towards her, "I'm listening. Get in the car."
He distracted himself to open the car door for her and even listened to what she said. It seemed like he was just being perfunctory.
Shen Yizhi sat inside, muttering, "Pei Shanshan, you are perfunctory to me again!"
Pei Yanhe pointed to an empty space on the other side and said, "No, sit inside."
Shen Yizhi: “…”
He looks so dead when it comes to serious matters.
The car door was closed, and Shen Yizhi glanced at the calm young master beside him, wondering: "You don't drive?"
The light was dim, and Pei Yanhe's outline was clearly highlighted by the dazzling light from the window. He still had that casual demeanor, "I have to give others a chance to work."
Shen Yizhi was speechless for a moment. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar figure passing by the window and hurried into the police station.
The figure from behind seems a bit like Cheng Zhuhan.
Why is she coming to the police station at this time?
As the car drove away, the outline of the police station became smaller and smaller.
A more scorching gaze from the side interrupted her thoughts. Shen Yizhi straightened up and looked at him, "Did you hear what I just said?"
"Which one?"
Pei Yanhe raised his eyebrows, looked at her, and said slowly, "Give me your answer in a couple of days?"
“…”
"Or, do you want to do lip friendship with me?"
“…”
Shen Yizhi leaned back in his chair, staring straight ahead with a hint of anger on his face, "Then let's just be lifelong friends."
A warm palm covered the back of her head, forcing her to straighten her head and look directly into his clear and charming peach blossom eyes.
Listen to him speak word by word with a sense of oppression.
"I don't agree."
His hot breath sprayed all over her cheeks, spreading all the way and burning her ears.
The strong, heavy mint scent silently invaded her territory until he completely possessed her in a deserted place, covering her with his scent.
Shen Yizhi lowered his gaze, with an expression that couldn't be more innocent, and said inappropriately: "Oh, what if I want to kiss you now?"
“…”
The back of his neck was pinched lightly, and Shen Yizhi shrank his neck unconsciously, pouting, "What?"
Perhaps he was laughing out of anger, Pei Yanhe's eyes were cold and dangerous, but a smile appeared on his noble face.
"You have a knack for this, so hire me."
