Chapter 122 Going out
to sea Leaving the river in the Magic City, it takes less than half an hour to reach the estuary on the sea.
The sky has darkened, and the azure sea surface has long turned into a deep black.
The two stood hugging each other, watching the last ray of the sun fall from the sea.
Finally, this stretch of sea turned into an endless abyss of black, without a single ray of light left.
"When did you buy the yacht?"
"It was customized a long time ago, and it was just shipped here a few days ago. The original destination was Haicheng, where I have a holiday villa. I happened to be in the Magic City, so it was delivered here."
Pei Yuzhi's voice was lazy.
"How do you know my birthday?"
"Isn't it simple?"
Yes, this is a very simple thing. As long as you want to know, you can find out with a little investigation.
But in recent years, even Huo Qiao himself has tried to forget this day.
"-The cake is delicious."
"Really? Several young girls have applied for the new company. When they were talking about it in the office, I guessed that you would like it very much."
Huo Qiao smiled and rubbed Pei Yuzhi's face.
At this time, there was a noise behind him. Pei Yuzhi paused and said, "Do you want to eat outside or go in?"
Huo Qiao turned his head back. In front of him was the deep unknown darkness, but behind him was the bright and warm light.
A middle-aged man who looked like a chef stood under the light pushing a dining cart. The food was placed on a shiny plate, and the red wine was poured into a high-heeled glass.
"Let's go inside."
The sea breeze in this season is still very cold.
The two people walked in with the smell of sea breeze and cool air.
The violinist played a lingering tune, and the glasses made a crisp sound when they collided.
Huo Qiao was too quiet throughout the whole process. Not only did he speak little, but his heart was also unusually silent.
Pei Yuzhi noticed his abnormality but pretended to be calm and helped him cut the steak.
A dark yellow light walked alone in the vast ocean, illuminating the sea surface around the yacht.
It added a little brightness to the darkness.
About 80 nautical miles away from the yacht, the sound of clinking glasses and laughing music came from the sea.
There was a party here.
The yacht has three floors, each of which is brightly lit, with people moving on it.
There is only one large room on the top floor of the yacht.
It is completely different from the bustle on the first, second and deck floors.
The young man sitting at the top is silent and gloomy.
"Brother Bocheng, would you like to drink some more? The taste of this bottle of wine is mixed with a little sourness, which should suit your taste."
"Hmm? Okay."
Zhang Bocheng replied lazily, and his fingers fiddled with a white porcelain chopstick holder at hand.
The room was kept at a constant temperature, and the small chopstick holder in his palm was stained with the warm body temperature on his fingers.
He sat alone on a single sofa, and Xie Jinchuan moved closer to him to pour wine. The aroma of cedar mixed with a little bit of cigarettes penetrated into Zhang Bocheng's nostrils.
The fingers fiddling with the chopstick holder suddenly stopped.
He raised his eyes casually and happened to look at Xie Jinchuan.
Xie Jinchuan's face is quite good-looking, with deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, deep eyebrows, and a sharp and three-dimensional jawline.
He has a cold look, but maybe because of his identity, he always has a hint of gloom and sadness.
This makes his temperament very contradictory.
Xie Jinchuan smiled: "What's wrong, Brother Bocheng?"
Zhang Bocheng: "- Changed your perfume?"
Xie Jinchuan was a little surprised: "You can even smell it?"
Zhang Bocheng suddenly sneered and lowered his eyes and said lightly: "How come you have time to attend my party today?"
Xie Jinchuan narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing why he suddenly changed the subject.
Zhang Bocheng has been acting strange these days, and Xie Jinchuan can see that Zhang Bocheng has a good impression of him.
There is always pity and concern in his eyes when he looks at Xie Jinchuan, as well as some indescribable ambiguous feelings.
Xie Jinchuan certainly wouldn't point it out, let alone bring it up. He just pretended not to know, and he could get quite a lot of benefits from Zhang Bocheng.
But this time when he came to Shanghai, Zhang Bocheng seemed to have changed a little.
He was ambiguous with Xie Jinchuan, and even when he was with Xie Jinchuan, he was often in a daze.
Just like just now.
If it was the same as before, Zhang Bocheng should continue the topic of perfume, and have some ambiguity with Xie Jinchuan, and finally go home happily with Xie Jinchuan's helpless and seemingly defenseless surrender.
Xie Jinchuan knew Zhang Bocheng's preferences very well, and was already familiar with this routine.
But Zhang Bocheng suddenly became uninterested in all this.
Could it be that there was another man around Zhang Bocheng?
Pei Yuzhi?
Red wine spilled on the table, staining the dark red-brown wooden tabletop. It was not until the wine fell on the carpet that Xie Jinchuan seemed to come back to his senses.
"- Sorry."
Zhang Bocheng said casually: "It's okay, just let someone clean it up, you can go sit next to it."
Xie Jinchuan unconsciously gritted his teeth, but could only lower his eyes and put down the decanter.
A moment later, a beautiful boy in uniform carefully pushed open the door and came in to clean.
The sound of music and noisy play followed the beautiful boy in.
Zhang Bocheng raised his eyelids, "It's quite lively."
Xie Jinchuan's face had returned to normal: "Although Cui Xianyue has a very stiff relationship with the Cui family, she has been running the Huo family for many years and has a lot of shares. With her here, I can only take a part-time job, and I will have more time to accompany you to drink in the future."
He was responding to Zhang Bocheng's question just now.
Zhang Bocheng pinched the chopstick holder with two fingers and studied it carefully, saying lightly: "That's good, those guys always bring people with them when they drink, and they are very noisy."
Xie Jinchuan's eyelids twitched suddenly, but he gritted his teeth and held back.
In the end, he swallowed the words that almost came out of his mouth.
His current situation in the Huo family is very difficult.
And because he insisted on coming to the Magic City, he could not go back to the Xie family in Dongsu. Of course, there was no place for him there.
After he knew that his biological father was Huo Qiting, he discovered that his father Xie knew his identity from the beginning. No wonder he had no shares or funds in his name except some cash and several properties.
He had to consider himself.
Huo Qiting only has a son who studies art. Xie Jinchuan wants to go back to the Magic City to replace Huo Qiting's son and take back what belongs to him.
Everything was going smoothly.
Until...
thinking about what happened in recent months, Xie Jinchuan, whose eyes were covered by fog, finally saw some of the essence.
It was because of Pei Yuzhi.
He lowered his eyes to hide the cruelty and gloom in his eyes. Pei Yuzhi, he would make him behave himself.
Here, Zhang Bocheng finally got tired of playing with the chopstick rest. He took out his mobile phone and flipped through it boredly until he saw a certain page and finally took action.
"Brother Bocheng? Do you want to go down and play?"
"Yeah."
Zhang Bocheng seemed very anxious. He only replied with one word and strode out of the room.
Xie Jinchuan frowned and looked at the time.
At eight o'clock in the evening, according to the route set by Pei Yuzhi's yacht, his yacht should be less than 60 nautical miles away from Zhang Bocheng's yacht.
I wonder if I can see the good show on the deck.
If you can see it, it will be worth it for Jinchuan to prepare for so long.
—I
