Chapter 1248 I Still Hope You Will Be My Brother-in-law
The reception returned to normal, as if the conflict had never occurred. Instead, Pascal became the focus of attention. Who was this guy? He was too aggressive, wasn't he? He couldn't tolerate bad behavior in a place like this!
But everyone knew why he was so arrogant: he was rich and confident! Everyone was curious about what he did for a living. Many people tried to chat him up, but were met with rebuffs. He and Kiki were happily enjoying a variety of pastries, completely ignoring everyone else.
This guy is so cool!
Xiao Peng on the balcony had no idea what was happening here. He was still on the balcony.
"Felix, why are you here?" Swan asked in confusion.
But Felix ignored him and hugged Xiao Peng and said, "Master, it's been a long time since we last met. I missed you so much!"
Xiao Peng touched Felix's head beside him and said, "Let go, let go. You're such a grown-up, why are you still acting like a little brat?"
Felix, dressed in a suit, twisted his head to avoid Xiao Peng's clutches. "Master! I just got my hair done, and I have a performance here soon! I heard you were here, so I rushed over to see you. You almost forgot about me, didn't you?"
Xiao Peng pouted and said, "You little bastard! I've been video chatting with you all day, why didn't you tell me about your sister's engagement?"
But Felix said: "My sister is my sister, I am me, and besides, I still hope you will be my brother-in-law!"
Swan on the side coughed dryly and said nothing.
Xiao Peng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid?"
But Felix said, "Swan is good, but he's nowhere near as good as you, Master!"
Xiao Peng covered his face.
Swan said, "I've already sensed this from my conversation with Mr. Xiao. Felix has said more than once that I'm not as good as you. I used to be very unconvinced, but after our conversation just now, I understand why he said that."
Xiao Peng hurriedly said, "Swan, stop flattering me."
But Felix said, "Master, Swan is telling the truth. You are the best!"
Xiao Peng said angrily, "You're here just to make enemies for me, right?"
Swan waved his hands hastily after hearing this and said, "Xiao, you're worrying too much. How could I possibly be hostile to you?" At this point, his eyes rolled, "Felix, have you let your master see your girlfriend?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Peng became interested. "Girlfriend? Felix, why didn't you tell me about this?"
After hearing this, Felix hurriedly said, "Master, I'm not trying to hide it from you. For such a small matter, I will..."
"What's a small matter?" Xiao Peng said angrily, "It's not like you just met me now. You're grown up now. It's normal for you to have a girlfriend! What's the problem with this? You even hid it from me! When can I see him?"
But Swan said, "His girlfriend is here too. You'll see her soon."
Felix glanced at Swan resentfully, but Swan pretended not to see him - come on, let's hurt each other!
Xiao Peng was very interested after hearing this: "Huh? Felix! Call your girlfriend over quickly, I'll help you check it out."
Just as Swan was about to speak, the balcony door was opened again. This time it was Marlene who came in, but she was looking for Swan. She waved at him and said, "Swan, come out for a moment!"
I don't know what they talked about outside, but soon Swan came in and said, "Xiao, I'm so sorry, I have something urgent to deal with here. See you inside later."
Xiao Peng nodded: "What's there to be embarrassed about? It's more important for you to get your business done."
Swan apologized to Xiao Peng again and left with Marlene.
Felix shook his head: "Ah, woman!"
"What's wrong with the woman?" asked the little evil woman in confusion.
Felix said, "You said my sister loved you to death back then, but now she changes so suddenly. She didn't even look at you twice just now."
Xiao Peng asked, "What do you mean by that? Do you want your sister to break up with Swan and throw herself into my arms after seeing me?"
"Is it possible?" Felix's eyes lit up after hearing this.
Xiao Peng rolled his eyes at him. "The primary responsibility for your sister and me being like this isn't hers, it's me. Think about it, I've been gone for so long, what woman could accept her boyfriend being like this? And you know I have so many other women around me, how could I possibly give her a sense of security? If you're truly doing this for your sister's own good, you should be glad she's separated from me!"
"But I just think that Swan is not as good as you." Felix said.
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "That's what you think, not what your sister thinks. As her brother, you should hope that she is happier, instead of interfering with her for your own preferences. I can say that even if Swan is not as good as me in every way, as a boyfriend, he is much better than me. We should all wish your sister the best."
Felix blinked. “Master, are you saying this because you’re tired of playing with my sister?”
Xiao Peng nearly lost his temper after hearing this: "Do you really need a beating, kid? Is it because I haven't beaten you in the past two years that you don't know how terrifying your master is?"
Felix stuck out his tongue and said, "Master, I have a performance soon. If you want to beat me up, wait until I'm done. Otherwise, I'll embarrass you!"
Xiao Peng was amused: "I can see that he has grown up a bit and learned to be smooth-talking!"
"Master, you teach me well!" Felix said directly.
Xiao Peng rolled his eyes at him and said, "When did I ever teach you this?"
"Master, have you forgotten the time you asked me to play the piano as your 'wingman'?" Felix said, "I'm a grown-up now, okay?"
"Yes, yes, yes. You've grown up." Xiao Peng said, "Where's your girlfriend? Let me see what my grown-up apprentice thinks."
Felix hurriedly said, "Master, I have to go to the performance. Can we talk after the performance?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Alright, you can't escape from my grasp! Go quickly!"
After hearing what Xiao Peng said, Felix ran away with a bitter face.
Watching Felix run away, Xiao Peng looked puzzled: "Why is this guy running away after finding a girlfriend? He's so shy? Who taught him to be so shy?!"
He was just about to go out to find out what was going on, but when he reached out to open the balcony door, the door suddenly opened.
An unusually strong old man with white hair walked in. Xiao Peng thought he was here to smoke, so he stepped aside to let him in first. However, the old man smiled delightedly when he saw Xiao Peng. "Mr. Xiao? You're here too?"
Xiao Peng blinked: "Sorry, I don't know you."
He is still gossiping about Felix's girlfriend, so why would he have time to waste here?
The white-haired old man grinned after hearing this: "Mr. Xiao, you don't know me? Oh, that's right, we have only talked on the phone and never met in person."
"Um?"
