Chapter 666 He is working hard
In the next few days, Xiao Peng's life was really not as others imagined, a happy life with girls on every side: he hid in his room every day and never went out.
"Felix! What on earth is your master doing?" Marlene asked, "Aren't you going to go check it out?"
"Ah? Are you talking to me?" Felix took off his headphones: "Marin, what did you say?"
Marlene said angrily, "What has your master been doing these days? I can't see him except for eating. Doesn't he like racing cars or something? Why doesn't he go out?"
Felix said, "Marin, you don't know my master yet? He's usually careless, but when it comes to critical moments, he works harder than anyone else. He's been looking up information there these days."
Marlene was clearly not convinced by Felix's explanation: "Is he looking up information or is he avoiding me?"
Felix spread his hands. "Marin, I said my master was sensitive the other day, and now it seems you're almost the same. Why is he avoiding you? Why is he so charming? Isn't it because of this? Sister, no one's success is accidental! Look at me, am I not working hard every day? Hey, is it time for piano practice? I'm going to practice first!"
Marlene was about to go upstairs: "No, I want to ask him what he really thinks!"
Felix stopped and said, "Marin, I still suggest you don't do this. I'd be very angry if someone interrupted me while I was practicing, not to mention my master. This is four or five hundred years of historical materials, he has plenty to work with. If you interrupt his train of thought, he'll be angry!"
Marlene stopped walking after hearing this and snorted coldly, "Is it okay if I go back to my room and change into my swimsuit? I want to learn from Yasmine and enjoy life every day!"
Now Yasmin is the standard of "enjoying life". Every day she either studies music with Felix or basks in the sun by the swimming pool... She is the most comfortable person in the whole room.
Watching Marlene scurry up to the second floor, Felix shook his head. "Love really can make people blind. How could someone who used to be so smart become so childish? I really don't want to call someone like that sister!"
Bo Ke, who was standing nearby, heard this and asked, "So you like older women?"
"..." Felix's face was filled with black lines: "Can we not talk about this matter? Be careful or I won't help you talk to my master about your situation!"
Boko quickly raised his hands in surrender.
Boko had a purpose for coming this time. He'd been having a rough time lately, so he'd come to join Xiao Peng. But he knew his limits. Xiao Peng's business was growing. He had dozens of people on his ship who depended on him for their livelihoods. As a bodyguard, he couldn't keep up with Walter and the others, and as a sailor, he couldn't keep up with the crew. So, he hoped Felix would speak up for him.
Felix smiled and said, "Alright, Boko, I think my master will use you. After all, this isn't a big deal to him. Of course, my master hates betrayal the most. Don't be like his old bodyguard. If that ever happens, I won't be able to save you."
"Of course!" Boko responded quickly.
Felix, however, imitated Xiao Peng's usual tone and said, "My master always said, don't listen to what a person says, but watch what he does."
Boco laughed. "Felix, you may not have noticed, but you're becoming more and more like your master. The tone of his voice and the way he thinks about things are very similar."
Felix nodded and said, "Of course. Hey, what's wrong with my master? Why doesn't he have any attraction to my sister? He's just avoiding my sister! You said my master is not that kind of innocent person, he's not a fool. He can't see what my sister is thinking, so why doesn't he have any attraction to my sister? I really don't believe you when you say he has no thoughts! My sister is a great beauty. No man would refuse such an active offer! And when my sister and I celebrated his birthday, he was so excited that he wasn't pretending. But in the end, nothing happened. After we left, he went out to fool around! Boko, what do you think he was thinking?"
Boko thought for a moment and said, "I think it's because of you."
"Because of me?" Felix's eyes widened. "What do you mean? You're saying my sister can't find happiness because of me? I'm not taking the blame for that!"
Boko said, "Felix, you keep saying your master is fooling around outside, but have you ever seen him do it with your own eyes?"
"Huh?" Felix was stunned.
Bo Ke continued, "Whether you're a man or a woman, everyone has a sense of shame, just to a greater or lesser degree. You must have things you do secretly that you don't want others to know! And there are some things that you can let some people know, but there are also people you absolutely don't want him to know. To Mr. Xiao, you are such a person. Look, even though Mr. Xiao and I are just ordinary friends, which is far worse than your relationship with him, there are some things he will do with me but definitely not with you. Don't be disappointed, this is a good thing, it means he values you and doesn't want to ruin his image in your mind."
Felix curled his lips and said, "As if I wouldn't understand unless he told me..."
"You understand, that's your problem," Boko said. "Look, he and you have a good relationship after all. If he and your sister didn't make it to the end, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for you? I know what you're thinking. You think it doesn't matter. You are you, and your sister is your sister. But you forgot one thing: your master is from the East, and their culture is different from ours! I heard him say that when couples break up there, most of them become hostile to each other and never talk to each other again."
"Why do you have to do this?" Felix's eyes widened. "Isn't it better to still be friends after breaking up?"
"Have you ever thought that this is because of the seriousness of their love when they were together?" Boko asked, "Will you still see your 'her'?"
Felix said hurriedly: "Don't mention her anymore!"
Bo Ke spread his hands and said, "Isn't that the answer? You won't meet her either. So when you meet her children and your classmates, will you still be the same as before?"
Felix fell silent and did not answer the question. He just shook his head. After a while, he raised his head and said, "So I am the biggest stumbling block between my sister and my master!"
Boko said, "It's a bit of an exaggeration to say it's a stumbling block, but it's definitely your problem."
"Oh, my master is so stubborn!" Felix sighed. "I really should have a good talk with him! But unfortunately, he's working hard right now, and I can't disturb him at this time. What should I do?"
