Chapter 20 Encountering an Enemy (Update)

Private cars are convenient and they don’t check IDs, but they are prone to being late and not punctual.

Pei Lang waited at the bus station for more than an hour. The driver of the bus he had arranged said he had something urgent to do and would not leave, so he asked Pei Lang to find another bus.

The sky seemed to be painted with a few lines of oil paint. The gorgeous sunset accompanied the low-hanging setting sun, playing a long and silent sound. The willow branches above his head were swayed by the gentle evening breeze. Seeing that the night was about to fall, Pei Lang had waited for such a long time to get this news. His mentality was a little bad. He called the driver to ask if he had the contact information of other drivers. After all, they all had an operating chain for this job. Who knew that the driver turned off his phone directly.

It's not like he hasn't encountered emergencies before, Pei Lang sighed. After going through a lot of trouble, he finally found another car, but it didn't leave until 8 o'clock in the evening, which was still two hours away. It would be too late to rush home. He didn't know if Yan Han would be angry because he didn't give him a massage.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that if I go back too late, there will be no food. I didn’t tell Aunt Lin that I wouldn’t be going home for dinner today.

Finally, Pei Lang decided to find a restaurant to eat and wait for the driver.

The sun went down, and the sunset glow in the sky struggled with the night sky, and finally, it was also drowned by the darkness. The street lights illuminated the entire city. The moonlight was beautiful tonight, and the stars in the sky were connected with the city lights. Pei Lang always went with the flow, so he just treated it as a short trip.

The city is a slow-paced place where even tourists can’t bear to disrupt the leisure and tranquility. There are many people but it’s not noisy. Even the restaurants are full of atmosphere and diners only talk in low voices, sharing what they have seen and heard today.

Pei Lang entered an antique restaurant, asked for a private room, ordered two side dishes and a bottle of local specialty rice wine, and began to enjoy his dinner. After dinner, he waited for a while. The driver hadn't called yet, so Pei Lang thought about paying the bill first and then waiting.

When he stepped out of the private room, a man walked towards him. He just glanced at him and thought that the man was quite good-looking. When they were about to pass by each other, the man suddenly grabbed his arm.

The force was great, the speed was fast, and the incident happened suddenly. Pei Lang was stunned for a moment, frowning and tilting his head. "What are you doing?"

"Pei Lang!?" The man was Yan Xiuyuan. Pei Lang had never seen him before, so he couldn't recognize him.

Oh no, it’s someone I know…

Pei Lang thought to himself that something was wrong, so he relaxed his brows, put on a smile, and pretended to know her. "Oh, it's you. Long time no see. What have you been busy with recently?"

There was nothing wrong with this way of greeting, but Yan Xiuyuan's eyes were filled with anger, and the strength in his arms increased a little, as if he wanted to break his bones.

Pei Lang was certain that this was an enemy.

Yan Xiuyuan never expected that the person he had been looking for for so long would actually meet here by chance. When he just came out, he thought the face looked a bit similar, but the dress and temperament were completely different. He was just tentatively pulling him, but he didn't expect that it was really the same person.

"I was wondering why I couldn't find you. So you've learned how to behave yourself during this time. Is this your way of avoiding me? Or do you think I'll like you if you become like this? Pretending not to know me, how long will you keep using this trick of playing hard to get? It just so happens that Ziqing is here too. If you kneel down and apologize now, I'll forgive you." Yan Xiuyuan was vicious and ruthless, like an erupting beast, wasting this handsome face. The voice on the phone is a little different from the voice in person. The tone is clearly that of the brain-dead male protagonist.

Pei Lang stopped smiling and grabbed Yan Xiuyuan's wrist and twisted it with his strength. There was a snapping sound, and the sound of the bone being dislocated was accompanied by a huge pain. Yan Xiuyuan's face turned ashen and he grimaced. "You are tired of living! How dare you fight back!"

He picked up his other fist and punched over, but Pei Lang moved and deftly deflected the attack, his punch hitting the air. Yan Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was just too angry and that Pei Lang was just lucky.

"Yan Xiuyuan, I find you a little childish, tsk tsk tsk~~" The claws on his arm loosened, and Pei Lang rolled up his sleeves nonchalantly to see the blood-red hand marks on his fair and tender skin, and he immediately felt bad.

Yan Xiuyuan was so angry that he almost exploded when he was called childish at the age of 25.

Being humiliated by Pei Lang time and again had already touched his scalp. He thought Pei Lang was just being arrogant on the phone, but he didn't expect him to dare to say that in person. "What did you say!?"

"Look at you, you don't look like a CEO at all, you look like a vicious dog controlled by emotions, baring your teeth, howling, not only do you have no brains, but you also spit in my face." Pei Lang spoke earnestly, like an elder, looking at Yan Xiuyuan as if he were a waste, a hopeless waste. Pei Lang sighed and shook his head. "As for me, I am three years older than you. According to age and etiquette, you should follow Pei Ziqing and call me brother, although I may not respond. If you are not childish now, what is it? I remember that I have made it very clear. If you want to make trouble for me again, I will not be polite."

"Brother... why are you here too? What a coincidence." Pei Ziqing saw that Yan Xiuyuan was taking a long time to return to the private room. He came out and saw Pei Lang. He was stunned at first, and then excited, because there was something interesting to watch.

Pei Lang just smiled calmly and said teasingly, "Your little baby has appeared."

She no longer had to pretend in front of Pei Lang, but in front of Yan Xiuyuan, she still had to maintain her good persona. "Xiuyuan, did your brother make you angry again? Please don't be angry."

"not good!"

"Xiuyuan..." Pei Ziqing's little face was filled with worry, but Yan Xiuyuan was extremely angry, and Pei Ziqing's appearance just added fuel to the fire.

"Ziqing, I gave him a chance, but he didn't cherish it and provoked me again and again. What kind of family is this? It's fine if I don't recognize a family like this. I have to teach him a lesson today, otherwise he will be lawless. He doesn't even take me seriously, so how can he respect you?" No matter what, Pei Lang can't escape tonight.

Pei Lang didn't know when he had turned on the recording function. Although it might not be enough to deal with Yan Xiuyuan, there was evidence to prove that Yan Xiuyuan was the first to attack and he was just defending himself normally.

"Xiuyuan..." Pei Ziqing wiped his eyes with tears, but did not say anything else, which was considered as his tacit consent.

Because it was in the corridor and there were not many customers at this time, it did not cause a commotion. Yan Xiuyuan raised his fist and hit Pei Lang hard. Pei Lang easily dodged by leaning to the side and couldn't help but applaud with a smile. "Wow~ Your relationship is really enviable. You are really a perfect match."

"Do you need to tell me?" After missing one punch and being ridiculed, Yan Xiuyuan threw another one. After missing again, he kicked his leg in anger. Pei Lang dodged it with a side flip on the ground. Anyway, no matter what moves Yan Xiuyuan used, Pei Lang could easily dodge it, causing Yan Xiuyuan to become more and more angry. His movements were rough and powerful, but he kept missing.

What's even more infuriating is that Pei Lang didn't forget to use his sweet and gentle voice to speak venomous words during this period.

"Ah~ It missed. This punch should have gone three centimeters to the left. Don't lose heart. Do as I say and try again."

"Your legs are not good, they are weak! Your legs can't be weak at this time, right? Did you get squeezed dry last night?"

"Oh, you are a president, but you are so barbaric. You are like a gorilla swinging your fists with the most primitive strength, showing off your power without any skills."

"You just arrived at the restaurant and haven't eaten yet, right? Try harder, your baby is watching you. It's the most embarrassing thing to lose face in front of the person you like. How about this, how about I cooperate with you and let you punch me a little? Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to save face and won't be able to end it."

"Pei Lang! Tear your mouth apart!" Yan Xiuyuan was very unconvinced. He rushed forward with pent-up anger and pounced on Pei Lang. This time Pei Lang was not stubborn. His steps were a little messy and he barely dodged. Then he kicked Yan Xiuyuan's neck with his legs raised.

"Stop!" A chilly and unquestionable voice came, and Pei Lang's feet stopped abruptly one centimeter away from Yan Xiuyuan's neck. He turned around in confusion and saw Yan Han and Su Jia.

Why is Mr. Yan here too?

Pei Lang was puzzled and put away his feet. He took two steps to the side, moved away from Yan Xiu, and stood aside obediently without saying a word.

Pei Lang was caught beating up the male protagonist by his uncle. Although they were not on good terms, they were related by blood. Pei Lang was frightened and tried his best to behave well.

Yan Xiuyuan was angry and surprised. "Uncle?"

Seeing this, Pei Ziqing hurried to Yan Xiuyuan's side and called him "Uncle" like a little white rabbit.

Yan Han was very angry, pursed his lips, and had a strong aura. "Come here."

Yan Xiuyuan walked over slowly, but Yan Han gave him a cold look. "I didn't call you." His eyes fell on Pei Lang and he said again. "Come here."

"Mr. Yan, what a coincidence." Pei Lang walked over with a smile, a bit of flattery. Yan Han was very scary when he was angry, even the little man on his shoulder stood in a serious military posture, not cute at all.

"I'll take the person away." Yan Han gave the order. Yan Xiuyuan disagreed. He was still a little afraid of Yan Han, but when he heard that Yan Han was going to take Pei Lang away, his fear was replaced by anger.

"No!" He raised his voice and glared at Pei Lang fiercely. "Uncle, this is a personal grudge between him and me. Please don't interfere."

Yan Han glanced coldly, looking at Yan Xiuyuan without any emotion, even less than when he looked at Pei Lang. "If I don't intervene, someone else will intervene."

Yan Han called his grandfather right in front of him and explained the situation in a simple and clear manner. "Father, your good grandson Yan Xiuyuan wants to attack Pei Lang. Do you want to take care of this matter, or should I take care of it myself?"

Yan Xiuyuan didn't understand why his uncle called his grandfather and didn't take the matter seriously at all.

The father and son had a brief conversation, and two minutes later, Yan Xiuyuan's father called and scolded him, saying that he was not managing the company well and was causing trouble everywhere. He ordered him to return to the company immediately, otherwise he would forget about the position of president.

Yan Xiuyuan was so ashamed after being scolded that he left with Pei Ziqing. Before leaving, he did not forget to speak harshly to Pei Lang. He never thought that it was Pei Lang himself who caused the scolding.

Pei Lang just smiled and nodded in acceptance of the other party's harsh words, without saying a word, as if he was going to infuriate the other party to death.

The world finally quieted down. Pei Lang glanced at Yan Han, then at Su Jia, and found that Su Jia's eyes were not right. Compared with the previous dislike, tonight, there seemed to be a little more admiration.

??? Is Su Zhuozi ill again? What does this admiring look mean?

"Have you finished eating?" Yan Han asked.

"I've finished eating." Pei Lang replied.

Neither of them mentioned what happened just now. Yan Han glanced at Pei Lang's shirt, which was wrinkled on his arms, with deep eyes. "Let's go after we finish eating. Su Jia, go drive the car over."

"Okay boss."
