Chapter 161 Robbing people in broad daylight?
Pei Zhensheng walked out of the mountain gate disappointedly, not knowing which master to hire next.
Pei Zhiwan walked behind him, and she asked Qin Ming if he really wanted to learn Bagua and I Ching.
Qin Ming definitely told her that he liked this, so he was in Qingfeng Temple, where there were many such books.
Pei Zhiwan quietly asked him for his contact information, and then followed Pei Zhensheng
and the others down the mountain. Back in the imperial capital, Pei Zhensheng didn't even care about the land opening project in the north of the city, and handed it over to Pei Qiheng, while he and Xu Qinghe mobilized all their connections to help find a new master.
The unexpected return of the old house of the Pei family fulfilled the long-cherished wish of the ancestor. This was a big deal for Pei Zhensheng. Moreover, he became the new head of the Pei family and restored the Pei family to his direct bloodline. Naturally, he felt a great responsibility and wanted to take it on.
Pei Qiheng was used to being a playboy, and suddenly took over the family business and was overwhelmed.
He was a man who could bend and stretch, and asked Pei Zhiwan for help.
Pei Zhiwan was naturally happy. It was the biggest happy event for the Pei family and the hope for the future of the Pei family that her eldest brother could get better.
In addition to attending classes, she tried her best to help him do this step, which was the most difficult step in everything.
At the same time, the jewelry store that Shang Guanyun was in charge of was also being prepared intensively.
Pei Zhiwan naturally had to participate, and for a while she felt a little overwhelmed with so many things to do.
Fortunately, Fu Yansheng always showed up in time to help her, which saved her a lot of trouble.
Pei Zhiwan finally had some free time that day. Pei Qiheng was getting on with the business, and Shang Guanyun was also selecting goods in the store, so she invited Fu Yansheng to have a meal to thank him.
The two sat in a newly opened stir-fry restaurant and ordered a few side dishes.
"Yansheng, do you still remember those home-cooked meals in the countryside? I have to say that the aunt next door is a great cook. I was lucky enough to eat there, but after you left, they moved away. I heard that they went to live with relatives in the southern city."
"I have never eaten those delicious home-cooked meals again. You know that my adoptive parents don't care about my life or death. Our family is poor. When I took the college entrance examination, I couldn't even have a bowl of stir-fried pork that haunted my dreams...."
Pei Zhiwan fell into the original owner's memory, muttering about her past sufferings.
In fact, she didn't do it to get Fu Yansheng's sympathy, but just to tell that experience and feel sad for the original owner.
Originally, she was the eldest daughter of the Pei family, but she became the poor girl of the Pei family in the countryside. She still had a bad ending when she returned to her parents in the city. It was really hard to accept.
Pei Zhiwan had no chance to tell anyone about these things, not even her family members, as they would cry to death.
Outsiders could not tell them, as they would only become a joke.
But Fu Yansheng was different. They had a common memory in the countryside, supported each other, and could empathize with each other.
Fu Yansheng felt very distressed when he heard this. He sighed softly, "If I had known this, I would not have left and would have stayed with you until you returned to your original family."
Pei Zhiwan shook his head and smiled, but he had no choice because his body would not allow it.
And she didn't say these to hear his words of comfort.
She chuckled: "Yan Sheng, in fact, everyone has his own life trajectory, which cannot be changed, right? Now I think it has become the past, an experience, and it has also made me the unique character I am today."
She changed the subject and paved the way for her future personality, so that he would not be surprised by her in the future.
"Yan Sheng, I accidentally discovered this small stir-fry restaurant. The dishes feel like the ones made by the aunt next door. I wanted to invite you to try it. It is inevitable to think of the past and feel a little emotional. But after all, it is the past. You and I have different new lives. Let us toast to the future and each walk towards the life we want."
Pei Zhiwan raised the wine glass, leaving no trace to indicate that there is no possibility for the two of them to be together.
These days, she felt his passionate feelings for her.
But she really had never thought about becoming a boyfriend and girlfriend with him, and she didn't have that feeling at all.
Love, no matter in the past or present life, is an important topic for her, and the key is to touch the heart.
But so far, she hasn't met someone who can touch the heart.
How could Fu Yansheng not hear it? He just pretended not to understand, smiled and nodded: "Okay, wish us a bright future. Thank you, let me also taste the taste of aunt's home cooking. Zhiwan, you are a caring person. After the bitterness, there is only sweetness."
He slammed the wine glass
against Pei Zhiwan's glass and drank it all. Pei Zhiwan liked that he was always so gentle and humble.
He was like a warm light. Even if he pursued her, he didn't put pressure on her, but just warmed her.
"Yan Sheng, you are not young anymore, don't be like my elder brother, who is greedy for the freedom of single life. Hurry up and find a girlfriend, isn't it better to start a sweet love life?" Pei Zhiwan poured another glass of wine for him and himself.
They drank the farmer's homemade rice wine, which was not strong.
Fu Yansheng didn't seem surprised by her urging him to get married. His face was still gentle, and he asked softly, "What about you? Wouldn't it be nice to find a boyfriend and start a sweet life? There's someone to accompany you when you want to cry, laugh, and confide."
Pei Zhiwan shook her head and smiled, "I've always been used to digesting things alone, or I'm used to being alone, and it's hard for me to accept someone around me for a while. Let's not talk about this, let's enjoy the deliciousness of these side dishes. What else do you want to eat? I'll order it for you. The price is very affordable."
Fu Yansheng nodded readily, made an OK gesture, picked up the menu and smiled, "Okay, I'll see if there's anything else I need."
"Pei Zhiwan, you made it hard for me to find you, come with me immediately."
Suddenly Di Chen came, grabbed Pei Zhiwan's arm without saying anything, and said in a deep voice.
Pei Zhiwan struggled subconsciously, how could he do this?
She was having dinner with her friends, and he grabbed her right away!
Di Chen grabbed her tightly.
Pei Zhiwan couldn't shake his hand off, and asked unhappily.
"What's the matter!"
Fu Yansheng also asked unhappily, "Boss Di, Zhiwan and I are having dinner, how rude of you to do that?"
Di Chen didn't even look at him, and snorted coldly, "What's going on between Zhiwan and me is none of your business."
As he said that, he exerted force on his hands and directly pulled Pei Zhiwan up from her seat.
The original owner was petite, while Di Chen was tall.
The power difference between the two was huge, and Pei Zhiwan was immediately half-grabbed by Di Chen and taken away by the belt.
Fu Yansheng chased after him and shouted angrily: "Di Chen, you are too much, robbing people in broad daylight?!"
Di Chen still warned him with a sullen face: "Go away, you have no right to interfere with what happens between Zhiwan and me."
Pei Zhiwan knew that Di Chen was a domineering boss, and guessed that it might be that the grandfather was sick again, so he was so anxious to take her away, so he turned his head and smiled at Fu Yansheng: "He is like this, don't worry, I will be fine, you continue to go back and eat, I will go with him."
