Chapter 28 Re-investigation
Autumn fell overnight in Dongsu City. After the short vacation, the students were not in high spirits, after all, the next long vacation would be the Chinese New Year.
The Pei family has been very busy recently. The servants in the garden are weeding and turning the soil, and the mistress brought back some new flowers and plants from London.
Pei Yuzhi now lives a life with both a father and a mother. He spends all his time drinking and hanging out with those playboys in nightclubs with his mother.
Pei's granddaughter Tu looks very young, and looks to be in her thirties.
Pei Yuzhi accompanied her shopping, and some people even mistook him for her boyfriend.
Granddaughter Tu smiled happily and secretly ordered another sports car for her son.
"Your aunt Cui's son also likes to play with cars. You have the same interests and hobbies, so you can interact more often."
"Mom, don't meddle in the affairs of young people."
"How do you talk to your mother?"
"Husband, why are you so fierce to your son!"
"Tsk."
Pei Yuzhi laughed, "Mom, Huo Qiao was notoriously cold in school. He studied art and I studied science, and our circles were not similar."
The granddaughter's eyebrows moved slightly with some sadness: "Your aunt Cui also said that Huo Qiao is a cold child. He grew up in his grandparents' home and was not close to his father and mother. Later, he ignored his father's opposition and insisted on studying sculpture, which made the relationship between father and son very stiff." What does Huo Qiao's coldness
have to do with him? He was too lazy to coax him.
"Baby, just think of this as helping mommy and contact Huo Qiao more often when you have time, okay? Your dad said you've added Huo Qiao on WeChat."
Pei Yuzhi fiddled with his coffee cup nonchalantly and said, "Mom, we're the same age, both in our 20s, he doesn't need a friend like me, and besides, there are so many people around him."
The pretty boy named Xu Jiang and the short guy named Zhong Lin both looked at Huo Qiao with unclean eyes.
Tsk.
Huo Qiao was still complaining about him in his heart, saying that he liked boys like Bai Xi and Su Su, and didn't Huo Qiao do the same?
The granddaughter didn't know why her son's face suddenly turned black.
Pei Xinyan was not used to him, and tapped the table with his finger and said: "Do as your mother says. In the future, all the business of the Pei family will be handed over to you, and you will need to maintain all the relationships in the family. In the future, the Pei family's business will have more intersections with the Huo family. It is very important to have a good relationship with Huo Qiao in advance."
The granddaughter said angrily: "Why are you so snobbish? Children can only make friends if they get along well. What business are you talking about?"
Pei Yuzhi suddenly asked: "Dad, the business you are talking about is the project to develop the waters of Tanshui Bay? Is Yuanchun owned by Chang Fengyuan or the Huo family?"
Pei Yuyan frowned: "Where did you hear that? The last time Chang Fengyuan came home to get the documents, you peeked "
Pei Yuzhi complained to his granddaughter with an exaggerated expression: "Mom, look at Dad, he said such harsh words, how can you say I was peeking?"
The granddaughter glared at Pei Xinyan: "That's right, the Pei family will be handed over to my son in the future, so I can watch openly, but..."
Pei Yuzhi had a bad feeling and stood up immediately: "I have classes in the afternoon, so I will go back to school first. Mom, I will go shopping with you on the weekend."
The granddaughter laughed: "After the New Year, go to the company with your dad, and also, the relationship with Huo Qiao, just consider it as you helping mom, okay?"
Pei Yuzhi walked quickly, waving his hands with his back to the Pei couple, without saying whether he agreed or not.
After he left, the smile on his granddaughter's face fell.
Pei Xinyan patted her hands and said, "I know you want to help Cui Xianyue and her son, but the Huo family has been too powerful in recent years. The Cui family has been hiding from the limelight and has been holding back. The more urgent it is, the more we will take over the project of Tanshuiwan, so that Cui Xianyue's situation will not be too difficult."
Sun Nu Tu leaned on his shoulder and sighed, "The Huo family will take revenge for every grievance. Even for us and our son, we can't let Huo Qiao be marginalized by the Huo family."
Pei Xinyan smiled, "Okay, you are going to have afternoon tea with your sisters today, it's time to change clothes."
His wife is kind and has no twists and turns in her mind, so she never doubts Cui Xianyue, her best friend in college.
But Pei Xinyan knows that Huo Qiao is not a second-generation ancestor who seems to have no desires.
And Cui Xianyue also has her own little tricks.
Pei Xinyan has done his best to participate in the Jintanshuiwan project. Pei Yuzhi's inability to get along with Huo Qiao is exactly what he wants, so as to avoid being too involved with the Huo family and getting into trouble.
*
Pei Yuzhi did have classes in the afternoon.
When his car stopped at the west gate of Soochow University, he saw a familiar figure.
"Bai Xi? What are you doing here? No classes today?"
Pei Yuzhi's eyes moved slightly. He has been busy recently and he hasn't seen Bai Xi for several weeks.
"Senior Pei? Long time no see!"
Bai Xi seemed surprised too. He was wearing a loose long sweatshirt that exposed his collarbone. His face looked smaller against the loose clothes.
He didn't wear a necklace around his neck, but Pei Yuzhi was wearing the familiar black five-star earrings on his earlobes.
Pei Yuzhi's eyes lingered on it for a moment, and suddenly he thought of something.
In the restroom of the club, he and Huo Qiao were very close, and he clearly saw a very obvious ear hole on Huo Qiao's earlobe.
It can be seen that Huo Qiao also likes to wear earrings.
It's just that Pei Yuzhi has never seen it.
"Senior Pei?"
"Huh?" Pei Yuzhi quickly came back to his senses, "Waiting for Huo Qiao here?"
Bai Xi was a little embarrassed: "Well, we agreed to watch a movie together today."
"Oh." Pei Yuzhi touched his upper jaw, "You and him are getting along better and better."
Bai Xi opened his mouth, and it was a rare moment when he was at a loss for words.
Pei Yuzhi averted his eyes and said, "Well, I'll go in first."
When they passed by, Bai Xi said shyly, "Senior, are you blaming me for not contacting me during this period?"
Pei Yuzhi paused slightly: "Why do you think so?"
"Last time I mentioned the hot spring hotel, senior, you saw..."
"Bai Xi!"
Huo Qiao's stern voice sounded behind them.
Bai Xi's body shuddered violently and he turned around hastily, "Huo Qiao!"
Oh no, did Huo Qiao hear it?
Pei Yuzhi frowned and looked at Bai Xi's face which turned pale in an instant, and couldn't help but look at Huo Qiao.
What's the matter? Bai Xi is so afraid of Huo Qiao, could it be that Huo Qiao already knows about what happened between him and Bai Xi in the hot spring hotel?
Huo Qiao clenched his fingers tightly, and looked at Bai Xi vigilantly with cold eyes: "Are you done talking? It's time to go."
Pei Yuzhi spoke up to save the situation: "Hey, Bai Xi and I just happened to meet at the door and said a few words, you..."
Huo Qiao suddenly turned his head and looked at Pei Yuzhi.
[How dare this jerk Bai Xi mention the hot spring hotel again? He is really shameless if I don't throw the photo in his face! And Pei Yuzhi, sooner or later I will let him see Bai Xi's ugliness! 】
His eyes were full of coldness and anger, and his heart was full of indignation. Pei Yuzhi was stunned.
..What kind of temper did this young master have?
And what photos?
Could it be that Huo Qiao used what happened between him and Bai Xi that night as a handle, so Bai Xi had to stay with Huo Qiao and couldn't break up?
Bai Xi followed Huo Qiao into a car like a little quail.
Pei Yuzhi watched the car drive away and then made a phone call.
"Hello, Uncle Sun, it's me. I want you to check something for me. Don't let my parents know about it."
"Well, it's about the hot spring hotel. Didn't they say that all the hotel surveillance is gone? See if there is any other way."
"Okay, I'll wait for your news."
