Yan Qiao absentmindedly bit the straw, sipping her juice intermittently.
Having lived through so many lifetimes, she was so focused on completing her missions that she had no interest in romance.
Now that she's back in Anding, she suddenly feels that having a sweet romance wouldn't be bad.
If that person were the man in front of you, that would be even better.
So this is what it feels like to blush and have a racing heart.
"Pei Bingjun."
"Um?"
"I am very rich."
Pei Jingzhan: "..." Shut up.
"If you're looking for a rich woman to keep you as a mistress in the future, consider me first. I'll definitely treat you well."
Pei Jingzhan: "Heh."
He put down his knife and fork and looked up at Yan Qiao.
The girl's pupils were so pure, without a trace of impurity.
If she hadn't used the word "sugar baby".
Why do you want to be my sugar daddy?
Yan Qiao bit her lip. "Is this something I can say?"
"able."
Yan Qiao smiled and pursed her lips. "I want to sleep with you."
Pei Jingzhan tightened his jaw. If this were his daughter, he would definitely make her taste bamboo shoots stir-fried with pork today.
"Qiaoqiao, you're still young and haven't been in a relationship yet. When you go to college and meet younger, more energetic guys, you'll realize I'm nothing special."
Yan Qiao: "You may have misunderstood..."
Pei Jingzhan: "?"
Yan Qiao's face was full of complicated emotions. "I don't need to go to university to know this kind of thought. I mainly like your face."
And body shape.
As for that dog-like personality, the old-fashioned cadre's temperament and style, she now knows it's nothing special.
Pei Jingzhan took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Hold back, or he'll strangle Yan Qiao.
"Furthermore, has Mr. Pei Bingjun ever been in a romantic relationship?"
Pei Jingzhan said calmly, "No."
It's best to say less.
Every word she said to Yan Qiao could have made her furious.
Yan Qiao pouted, "Then when you see prettier and younger girls in the future, will you like them instead of me?"
Almost instinctively, I answered, "Of course not."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Qiao smiled slyly and concluded: "So, you like me."
This conclusion pleased her but surprised Pei Jingzhan.
Do you like Yan Qiao?
This concept is completely unfamiliar to me.
He gave an ambiguous answer: "It's hard not to like you."
Including him.
"But a normal romantic relationship is not maintained by money."
Yan Qiao released the straw that had been bitten flat and said, "You can't deny that money is indispensable."
Pei Jingzhan remained noncommittal, ending the conversation: "Shall we go?"
Yan Qiao felt a little disappointed that she couldn't get more out of him, but she decided to save it for next time.
Back home, Yan Qiao started a giveaway on Weibo.
It's still limited to fans who have followed for more than a month. You participate today and the draw is tomorrow. The main feature is that it's quick and easy.
While she was busy drawing lots, Pei Jingzhan sat in the pavilion, gazing up at the moon.
On a rare sunny day, the crescent moon peeked out, smiling down.
Born into the Pei family, he has always advocated for marriage alliances, believing that a union of strong forces is the way to ensure long-term survival.
As he said before, only marriages between equals can last.
Now, things have gone off track.
He looked down at his palm, realizing for the first time that something had escaped his control.
JZ: [When you were dating your wife, how did you realize you liked her?]
Chen Wu: [Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Pei Laosan, you can't be serious, you've fallen for someone? It's rare to see someone's heart flutter only after thirty years!]
The flower on the high mountain is about to bloom.
JZ: [It wasn't me, it was my friend.]
Chen Wu sent a voice message directly: 【Hahahaha, making friends out of thin air? With your social skills, besides me, who else would be your friend?】
JZ: [Don't be rude to your Uncle Pei [smile]]
Indulging in idleness: [...]
Chenwu: [Liking someone is simple. When you look at her... oh no, when your friend looks at her and smiles, he wants to smile too. In short, she can affect your... oh no, your friend's emotions.]
Pei Jingzhan scoffed and tapped the screen a few times.
When Chenwu sent him another message, he received a red exclamation mark.
The message has been sent, but the recipient has rejected it.
Chen Wu cursed angrily: "Pei Laosan, you're a real dog!"
Not long after WeChat went quiet, Pei Jingzhan received a message from Li Qiao.
Li Qiao: [Third Master, I heard you've fallen for Yan Qiao? Oh no, no, no, it's your friend who's fallen for Yan Qiao?]
JZ: [...]
Li Qiao: [The Complete Guide to Romantic Chatting Techniques]
Li Qiao: ["A Collection of 100 Flirting Phrases!"]
Li Qiao: [“A Love Guide I've Collected for Years – Save It Now!”]
Li Qiao: [Third Master, after all, she's my first love after 30 years of life. We need to be careful and not fall head over heels in love. We need to keep an eye on her!]
JZ: [Very good [smile]]
JZ: [Year-end bonus halved.]
Li Qiao hurriedly replied: 【These are for your friends! Not for you to see!】
What should I do if my cycad won't admit to flowering? Urgent! I need help online!
Pei Jingzhan ignored him, closed his phone, and stayed quietly.
Yan Qiao came out at some point and sat down next to him.
"Freshly brewed milk tea, 30% sugar."
Her 30% sugar level was different from the 30% sugar level at the milk tea shop; it was less sweet and better suited Pei Jingzhan's taste.
Pei Jingzhan took it and took a small sip.
It has a rich milky aroma, a very authentic tea flavor, and a warm, slightly sweet taste.
"I used to enjoy watching the moon alone when I was unhappy. Pei Bingjun, are you unhappy?"
Pei Jingzhan chuckled, "No."
Rather than saying I'm unhappy, I'd say I'm confused.
This feeling is so rare; he needs to think about it carefully.
Being with Yan Qiao would hinder his thinking.
"I thought liking me was something that would be difficult for you."
The girl's sweet, innocent voice rang in my ears, devoid of any lust.
He gazed at her profile, thinking that her rosy lips must be very soft.
Pei Jingzhan closed his eyes, feeling ashamed of the thought.
He's already thirty; how can he be attracted to a girl who's not even twenty yet?
"Yan Qiao, you are still too young."
Yan Qiao pouted and suddenly reached out and snatched the milk tea from his hand.
"I'm young, not stupid, not someone who doesn't even know who they like. I've never been in a relationship, but I know that love isn't just sweet; it's a mix of all sorts of flavors that make up the myriad aspects of life, isn't it?"
Pei Jingzhan felt a rare pang of regret.
Age is certainly not a problem, but their beginnings are like a ticking time bomb, ready to be detonated at any moment.
Without Shiloh, he wouldn't have deliberately approached her, much less had much interaction with her.
This beginning filled him with apprehension.
"Yan Qiao, I don't want to be the reason you look at the moon alone."
Yan Qiao was taken aback, suddenly remembering what had just been said.
In the past, when I was unhappy, I liked to look at the moon alone.
"Then just don't be the reason I'm unhappy, okay?"
Pei Jingzhan smiled faintly and did not respond.
