Chapter 55 Don't you think I'm a bad person?
A few minutes later, Xu Wang wiped his face and struggled to move his body to the edge of the bed.
Before his feet even touched the ground, the bedroom door was suddenly and gently opened.
Pei Yanchuan walked in, and seeing Xu Wang preparing to get out of bed, he quickly went to him and stopped him.
"Don't move, I'll hold you. I've already prepared the food."
Pei Yanchuan held Xu Wang's upper body with one arm and hooked Xu Wang's legs with the other, lifting him steadily in his arms.
Xu Wang looked up at Pei Yanchuan's relaxed expression and thought, "No, Sister Li, why is it that I'm the one lying down and enjoying myself so much, while she's the one who's putting in the effort and looks radiant? Isn't that a bit unfair?"
Pei Yanchuan carried Xu Wang out of the room and gently placed him on a chair, which he had already placed a soft cushion on beforehand.
As Xu Wang smelled the aroma filling the air, his already empty stomach roared with excitement.
Xu Wang looked at the dining table expectantly, but his smile froze on his face the next second.
Why is there only soup and broth? Where's the braised pork?
Xu Wang looked at Pei Yanchuan with a resentful expression.
Pei Yanchuan served him a bowl of bright chicken soup and added a large chicken leg to his plate.
"This is also meat. I consulted the doctor, and he said you can't eat too much spicy food these days, it's bad for your health."
Xu Wang's eyes shone as he ate the chicken leg in his bowl. His roasted chicken leg, his hot pot, his whole roasted lamb... T_T
Just as Xu Wang was sadly drinking his soup, his phone rang in the bedroom.
Pei Yanchuan got up and went into the bedroom, taking out his phone and gently placing it on Xu Wang's desk.
Xu Wang put down his chopsticks and picked up his phone. The screen lit up, and a call he hadn't heard from in a long time appeared in front of him.
"Who?" Pei Yanchuan asked, puzzled, as Xu Wang remained motionless.
"My biased father." Xu Wang curled his lips. They hadn't been in contact since the last 50 million. This sudden contact was definitely not good news; it was probably related to money again.
Xu Wang gestured for Pei Yanchuan to be quiet.
Seeing this, Pei Yanchuan also put down his chopsticks and bowl.
Xu Wang swiped the call button.
"Hey, Xiao Wang," Xu's father's ingratiating voice came eagerly from the other end of the phone.
"Hey, Father, what made you decide to call me today?" Xu Wang looked surprised and touched, his voice almost choked with emotion.
Pei Yanchuan sat opposite Xu Wang, watching his lover's vivid and adorable expressions, and couldn't help but rest his chin on his right hand and quietly admire her.
Meanwhile, at the Xu family's small company, Xu's father's expression stiffened when he heard Xu Wang's voice: "Look at what you're saying, child. It's just that your mother misses you, so I'm calling to ask if you have any free time these days. If you do, come home for a meal."
Xu Wang glanced at Pei Yanchuan and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips: "Okay, you can choose a time, but I have to tell you in advance that Yanchuan is busy with things these days and may not be able to make it."
When Xu's father heard that Pei Yanchuan was not coming, he hesitated, but then he thought about how the company's income had been very low recently and how the payment of wages would soon become a problem. In the end, he made up his mind.
He and his company can't wait much longer.
Of course, Xu's father had recently heard about the programs Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan had been on. He heard that Pei's son was very obedient to his eldest son. Xu's father believed that as long as he got his eldest son under control, things would go very smoothly.
"It's okay, as long as you're back. Let's set it for next Monday evening, is that alright?"
Xu Wang glanced at the date. Next Monday was five days later, and his body should have recovered. He had to admit that his father knew how to pick a date, choosing the day when his fighting strength had recovered. He would have to play along with them and put on a good show.
"Okay, see you Monday then."
"Okay, see you Monday."
Xu Wang hung up the phone and looked up to see Pei Yanchuan staring intently at him.
"Are you sure you don't need me to come with you?" Pei Yanchuan put a piece of meat on Xu Wang's plate.
“These are all minor matters, no need for President Pei to take the trouble. By the way, Yan Chuan, does your company have any collaborations with particularly low returns? Like, a few million.” Xu Wang looked at Pei Yan Chuan.
Pei Yanchuan nodded. There were collaborations with small profits, of course, but he would almost never get involved.
"Then let's give the Xu family a chance." A sly glint flashed in Xu Wang's eyes.
Pei Yanchuan looked at Xu Wang's mischievous expression and smiled, "What are you planning to do?"
"My plan is to feed them a few bites first, then slowly whet their appetites, and finally starve them to death," Xu Wang said with a smile as he finished the last mouthful of soup in his bowl.
“That’s a good idea. Leave this to me, and I’ll definitely pick a few collaborations that will satisfy you.” Pei Yanchuan took the empty bowl from Xu Wang.
Xu Wang looked at Pei Yanchuan, who was still smiling, with some doubt: "Don't you think I'm a bad person?"
Pei Yanchuan paused in his hand as he ladled soup for Xu Wang. He looked up at Xu Wang reassuringly and asked, "Do you think what I did to my father's family was bad?"
Xu Wang shook his head without hesitation. Of course not. He even felt that Pei Yanchuan hadn't been ruthless enough.
"That's right, come on, have some soup."
This was the second bowl of soup Pei Yanchuan had served to Xu Wang.
Xu Wang snapped out of his daze, looked at the white soup in front of him, and asked with a bitter expression, "Can I not drink it?"
Pei Yanchuan chuckled at his lover's bitter face, but in the end he firmly shook his head: "Sweetie, this is the last bowl."
"Ah..." Xu Wang buried his head and drank bitterly.
