Chapter 087

Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu washed up and went downstairs.

Huanghou City is the last stop of the recording of "Travel", and today is also the last day of the recording of "Travel". With the end of today's live broadcast, the recording of "Travel" has also ended.

When we arrived at the restaurant, Pei Yubai was already waiting at the table.

Yesterday's events seemed to have no effect on him at all. He prepared breakfast for Zhou Qingyu as usual. Zhou Qingyu looked at Pei Yubai with a dazed look. If Pei Yubai hadn't had a plaster cast on his arm, Zhou Qingyu would have thought that what happened in the canyon yesterday was just a dream.

Breakfast was the same as the previous two days. Zhou Qingyu has been trying to control her weight recently, so she had a light salad for breakfast.

Yan Xi's breakfast is richer, with specialties from Country X, such as white fish cakes and oatmeal porridge.

As soon as the two of them sat down, Pei Hanli and Zhou Yanci also came downstairs. The two of them traveled together and chose the same route as Zhou Qingyu, inviting a special travel consultant to take charge of everything.

At this moment, Zhou Qingyu was chewing on vegetable leaves, Yan Xi was eating dry white fish cakes, and they watched eagerly as the chef brought freshly cooked breakfasts to Zhou Yanci and Pei Hanli.

Zhou Qingyu was dazzled by the array of delicious food: white truffle benedict egg sandwich, vanilla butter baked lobster, pan-fried venison, buttered black gold abalone grilled breakfast...

Zhou Qingyu swallowed her saliva and suddenly felt that the vegetable leaves in her hand no longer smelled fragrant.

She pointed at Pei Hanli's breakfast, "Pei Yubai, I don't want salad anymore, I want this!"

Pei Yu smiled with a straight face, "I'll go and help you prepare!"

He immediately went to the kitchen to call the chef, but the chef just took a look at the food on the table and shook his head, "These are all high-end ingredients, not that easy to get!"

"I can add more money!" Pei Yubai said quickly.

"I have to prepare!" the chef said helplessly, "Even if I get the ingredients, it will take a while to cook. If you are willing to wait, that's fine."

But Zhou Qingyu still has to record a variety show, so she doesn't have the time to wait.

Pei Yubai could only come to the restaurant and tell Zhou Qingyu the unfortunate news.

As soon as we arrived at the restaurant, we saw Zhou Qingyu and Yan Xi sitting next to Pei Hanli and Zhou Yanci, eating happily.

"Miss, this baked lobster is good. It's high in protein and won't make you fat easily."

"You can also try the shrimp. The white meat is very suitable for people who want to control body fat..."

Pei Hanli served the food to Zhou Qingyu with a smile, and put the delicious food on Zhou Qingyu's plate with the serving chopsticks, without any sense of superiority as the president.

"No!" Zhou Qingyu complained, "Even if it's seafood, I can't eat too much, or I'll get fat!"

"It's okay. If you can't finish it, I'm here for you," Pei Hanli said with a smile. "If Miss wants to try something new, you can have a bite. The rest won't be wasted."

Zhou Qingyu smiled happily, "Pei Hanli, you really understand~"

He knew that Zhou Qingyu was a female star and couldn't eat high-calorie foods, so he prepared a lot of seafood. He also knew that Zhou Qingyu wanted to try something new and wouldn't eat too much, so he took the initiative to take charge of the finishing work.

"If you apply to be my butler, I will definitely choose you!"

Pei Hanli lowered his eyelids, blocking his cunning fox-like eyes. His dark pupils seemed to be restraining something.

"Miss, as long as you are willing, I will always serve you."

【Ahhhhhh I want to buy stocks, Brother Pei! 】

[There aren't many little wolfdogs who are so proactive and service-minded~]

[I saw it last time at the ski resort. President Pei definitely likes big

Miss~】

[Isn't President Pei much better than Pei Yubai? I've never seen any gossip about President Pei! ]

[Good men are all clean! Get out of here, you big pig! ]

Zhou Qingyu was also quite satisfied with Pei Hanli. At least he made her feel comfortable.

She turned her head and looked at Zhou Yanci, her tone provocative, "Even Pei Hanli knows to prepare breakfast for me, don't you know how to prepare it for Yan Xi?"

Zhou Yanci slowly cut the pan-fried venison with a knife and fork. Hearing this, he looked up at Zhou Qingyu and said, "Pei's company doesn't even have any business in Country X. Where do you think Pei Hanli would have found such an authentic chef if it weren't for me?"

Then he pushed the cut venison in front of Yan Xi.

Yan Xi blinked and said, "I can cut it myself!"

"You drank so much last night. Do you have a headache?"

Yan Xi's face turned red, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Zhou Qingyu raised her head, "That's because of my hangover medicine! Besides, I know who Xixi's crush is!"

Yan Xi quickly held down Zhou Qingyu and shook her head wildly.

Zhou Yanci clenched the knife in his hand, "Who is it?"

Zhou Qingyu said proudly: "I will tell you if you let me join the Zijin Garden project!"

"good."

Zhou Yanci responded too quickly, and Zhou Qingyu was unable to react in time, and almost choked on the milk. She coughed twice, and Yan Xi took the lead in helping her to calm down.

Zhou Qingyu looked at Zhou Yanci, "Are you serious?"

The Zijin Garden project has been basically completed, and the subsequent construction, decoration, sales... are all stages of reaping results. Zhou Yanci now allows Zhou Qingyu to join, and her identity is definitely the second-in-command of the project, so she can reap the fruits of her labor.

"Who is it?" Zhou Yanci asked again.

Yan Xi gestured to Zhou Qingyu frantically.

Zhou Qingyu mouthed to Yan Xi and said, "This is hundreds of billions!"

Yan Xi’s eyes widened. If Zhou Qingyu told Zhou Yanci now, she would definitely dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it!

Zhou Qingyu just smiled and said to Zhou Yanci arrogantly, "If you want to know, I won't tell you!"

Zhou Yanci remained silent and cut the venison silently.

Pei Hanli took a glance and saw that the venison had been diced and there were flashes of swords and sabers.

——

In the restaurant, Pei Yubai stood aside silently.

He knew that he had already lost to Pei Hanli at breakfast. He didn't think Pei Hanli would love Zhou Qingyu. Zhou Qingyu was arrogant and looked down on others. Apart from that face, what else was there to recommend her?

Pei Yubai was more inclined to believe that Pei Hanli's intervention was to prevent him from getting Pei's shares. If Pei Hanli could catch up with Zhou Qingyu, the 3% betrothal gift from his grandfather would fall into his hands.

Pei Yubai secretly clenched his fists, and while Zhou Qingyu was eating breakfast, he handed her the travel brochure, "Qingyu, today is the last day of the variety show, do you want to have fun?"

Zhou Qingyu was boredly flipping through the travel brochure. It was too cold and she had no interest in most of the items in it.

"Xixi," Zhou Qingyu called Yanxi, "What do you want to play?"

Yan Xi flipped through two pages but still had no idea.

The most fun thing about Queen City is the snow, but the snowstorm two days ago gave Yan Xi PTSD, and now she has no interest in anything related to snow.

Pei Hanli suggested, "Miss, hunting is legal in Country X, why don't you go hunting?"

"Is it a real gun?" Zhou Qingyu's eyes lit up.

Pei Hanli nodded, "You need to apply, but you can use real guns. Yanci and I plan to play this today."

As he spoke, he put his arm around Zhou Yanci's shoulder familiarly, looking like a good brother.

However, Zhou Yanci was obviously impatient and shook off his hand.

Zhou Qingyu is interested in this activity. Although gun ownership is prohibited in China, it is legal in some places abroad. Zhou Qingyu does not have many opportunities to own a gun, so she is eager to try it.

Yan Xi was also very curious. She had touched a real gun during military training before, and the recoil hurt her shoulder, but that didn't stop her from wanting to play.

Zhou Qingyu ordered Pei Yubai, "Pei Yubai! I'm going to hunt later, hurry up and get ready for me!"

Whatever the young lady wants to play, she must play it. Isn't this the responsibility of a travel consultant?

If Zhou Qingyu wants to buy a big sailboat, Louis can get one in minutes; if Zhou Qingyu wants to hold a concert, Park Baoyuan can organize a high-quality concert in a few hours.

In Zhou Qingyu's opinion, hunting is easier than getting a sailboat or holding a concert, and a qualified travel consultant should not be unable to do it.

But Louis and Park Baoyuan are both professional travel consultants, backed by American Express Bank and have a rich and deep resource network. Pei Yubai is obviously not qualified.

Contacting the hunting club, renting a helicopter, applying for firearms, ordering hunting clothing... all of these take time. When Zhou Qingyu and Yan Xi finished breakfast, Pei Yubai had just contacted the hunting club.

Zhou Qingyu frowned, "With your efficiency, I'll never be able to play!"

Pei Yubai cursed in his heart. It had only been ten minutes since Zhou Qingyu proposed hunting! He was not a superman. If he was given more time, he could do it!

Pei Yubai hurriedly took out his mobile phone to contact the hunting club. He spoke fluent English, but there were too many things to negotiate and he was a little overwhelmed.

Zhou Qingyu stood at the door of the villa, folding her arms in dissatisfaction, "You're so slow. You can't even do this. Pei Yubai, you're so useless!"

Pei Yubai's face was gloomy, but he could only continue to contact the hunting club.

"If Miss wants to play, why not join us?" Pei Hanli walked out.

Zhou Yanci followed beside him. Both of them had changed into jungle camouflage uniforms. The uniforms fit their bodies tightly, perfectly showing off their broad shoulders and solid chests.

Zhou Yanci was dressed neatly with his clothes buttoned up to the top, giving him an inexplicable sense of abstinence; Pei Hanli's sleeves were neatly rolled up, revealing the muscular lines on his forearms.

[How about these two debut together? They'll be the president of novels now! 】

[The real boss and the fake boss in the TV series, a dimensionality reduction attack! ]

[To be honest, Pei Yubai is also the president, CEO of Tianhui...]

[Don't mention Pei Yubai, he's like a headless fly now! ]

Pei Hanli walked up to Zhou Qingyu. The snow at the door wet the tips of Zhou Qingyu's shoes. Pei Hanli squatted down neither humbly nor arrogantly and wiped the water stains off Zhou Qingyu's shoes.

He raised his head. Although he was a head taller than Zhou Qingyu, he still looked up at her.

"Miss, would you like to join us?"

Zhou Qingyu is 1.73 meters tall, which is considered tall among girls. But when she is next to Zhou Yanci, she always has to look up at him. The same is true when she occasionally looks at Pei Yubai.

Pei Hanli's height made her feel much happier.

The eldest lady is like a smooth-furred ragdoll cat. When she is in a good mood, she is easy to talk to.

"OK!"

Pei Hanli had already made an appointment with the hunting club, the guns had been registered, and the helicopter had been rented and parked in the spacious square outside the villa.

Pei Hanli stood up and clapped his hands again. A large logistics truck slowly drove over and stopped in front of the villa.

The rear door of the logistics truck opened, and the saleswomen in neat suits came out of the storage box of the logistics truck. The rear compartment opened up, and the boring storage box suddenly turned into a dazzling array of clothing racks filled with various camouflage uniforms, windbreakers and other hunting clothes, all of which were women's.

"Miss, would you like to try it?" Pei Hanli made a gesture of invitation.

Zhou Qingyu glanced at him and said, "You are well prepared. What if I don't want to hunt?"

"There must always be a plan B. We can't let the young lady wait."

Pei Yubai came back in a hurry, "Qingyu, I have already contacted the hunting club for you, and they will send a hunting guide here soon..."

Looking at the helicopter in front of him and a carriage full of camouflage uniforms, Pei Yubai was stunned.

Zhou Qingyu looked at him with a smile, "Pei Yubai, is there anything else?"

Pei Yubai choked. Compared with Pei Hanli's sufficient preparation, the hunting club he had temporarily contacted was like a makeshift team and was not even worthy of being on the stage.

He remained silent, but clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh.

A glass heart fell to the ground and broke gently.

[Is Pei Yubai really a travel consultant? The arrangement is too bad! ]

[Yeah, I feel annoyed just looking at him. I'm beginning to miss Louis and Park Bo Won. I feel like they are the ones who can do anything. They can handle any request from the young lady! ]

[Pei Hanli is also good~]

[I agree! I feel like Pei Hanli is more like a young lady’s travel consultant~]

Zhou Qingyu didn't care whether Pei Yubai's defense was broken or not, she happily held Yan Xi's arm.

"Let's go change clothes~"

The two chose the same camouflage uniform, paired with military boots that were convenient for jungle hiking, and combed their hair into handsome high ponytails.

After changing clothes, the helicopter was ready and we could go directly to the primeval forest.

Pei Hanli opened the door of the helicopter for Zhou Qingyu. After Zhou Qingyu got on, Pei Hanli instinctively wanted to follow and sit next to her.

Zhou Yanci grabbed Pei Hanli by the collar.

"Get lost."

Zhou Qingyu ignored Pei Hanli and pulled Yan Xi's hand, "Xixi, come up!"

Yan Xi held her water bottle and skipped to Zhou Qingyu's side.

"Here I come~"

Pei Hanli looked at Zhou Yanci angrily, "Zhou Yanci, don't be so stingy, I just want to sit next to the eldest lady."

Zhou Yanci said coldly, "So, get lost."

Pei Hanli looked at him with a smile, "Isn't the relationship between you and your sister not good?"

"That's my sister too," Zhou Yanci raised his eyes and glanced at Pei Hanli, "What the hell are you? Do you think I don't know?"

You can be Zhou Qingyu’s travel consultant.

As a boyfriend, no.

Honest service, yes.

Sticking is not allowed.

[Hahahaha! It turns out that the brother looks down on those who covet his sister! ]

[I read gossips saying that these two siblings don’t get along, but I think it’s okay. It’s so fun to see them bicker with each other~]

[Discord within, unity outside! ]

[My brother is the same, he always criticizes me, but when he knows I have a partner, he will be very picky about the other person! ]

Yan Xi poked her head out of the helicopter door in shock.

Pei Hanli is the villain of the novel after all. Zhou Yanci's action was to grab him by the collar. Where could he put the villain's face?

But Pei Hanlisi was not annoyed at all, and still had an elusive smile on her face, "Brother, believe me, I will treat the young lady well!"

Zhou Yanci: ???

He frowned, "What did you call me?"

"Brother!" Pei Hanli was very practical. "You are the eldest lady's brother, and from now on you will be my brother. There is an order of seniority, and I have always been very polite!"

Zhou Yanci: "..."

"I will really treat the young lady well!" Pei Hanli repeated.

Zhou Yanci threw him behind him and said, "I don't believe your ghost."

——

Pei Hanli only rented a four-seater helicopter.

Yan Xi knew that Pei Hanli did it on purpose. He knew to prepare dozens of sets of clothes for Zhou Qingyu to choose from, and even Yan Xi's clothes were prepared. How could he not consider carefully about renting a helicopter?

But Pei Hanli got on the helicopter last. After everyone was seated, he looked at Pei Yubai and said, "My dear brother, there are not enough seats. You will have to find a way to get there by yourself!"

Pei Yubai looked extremely bad and he clenched his teeth in anger.

He called out to Zhou Qingyu unwillingly, "Qingyu, my helicopter will be here soon. We only need to wait another ten minutes! Let's take our own helicopter!"

Zhou Qingyu was sharing gossip with Yan Xi. After hearing this, she looked up and looked at Pei Yubai coldly, "Pei Yubai, my time is so precious. I hate waiting the most. Why don't you catch up by yourself!"

After saying that, Pei Hanli got on the helicopter swiftly and slammed the door shut, not caring at all about Pei Yubai's ashen face.

…

The helicopter slowly flew towards the primeval forest.

The primeval forest near the Queen City is very quiet in winter. The roar of the helicopter broke the tranquility of the forest. Looking from the helicopter, the continuous treetops are like a white ocean, connecting with the distant sky. The sunlight is like broken gold, and the snow on the branches falls down.

The helicopter slowly landed on a clearing at the edge of the forest. The hatch opened, and Pei Hanli and Zhou Yanci jumped out first, followed closely by Zhou Qingyu and Yan Xi.

Zhou Qingyu did not plan to go with Pei Hanli, mainly because there were too many people, including the staff of the program team, and it would be inconvenient to hunt with too many people. So after the guests arrived at the primeval forest, they were divided into two groups and entered the primeval forest through different paths under the guidance of the hunting guide.

Zhou Qingyu was very excited, holding a real gun loaded with bullets in her hand.

Yan Xi also took one, but she still remembered that during the military training, she was knocked all over by the recoil of the 54 rifle. This thing is different from CS, so Yan Xi only took a lighter one, focusing on participating.

In fact, only Yan Xi was slacking off.

Two hours later, Yan Xi was stunned when she saw Zhou Qingyu hunting a wild boar.

"What are you standing there for?" Zhou Qingyu happily kicked the wild boar twice, "We can eat roasted wild boar tonight~"

After hiking in the forest for two hours, the young lady was tired.

The guide took out some health tea and handed it to Zhou Qingyu.

Zhou Qingyu took a sip and said, "It tastes good. Does your club also prepare this for guests?"

Guide: "It's not the club that prepared it. It's President Pei. He knows that we will probably be separated after entering the forest, so he specially asked us to prepare tea for you."

"Pei Hanli?" Zhou Qingyu shook the health tea. "He actually thought of this."

[Pei Hanli really thinks of the young lady in everything! Even if he is not around, he still considers the young lady! ]

[I’m so happy, I’m so happy~ Miss, look at Pei~! I like this kind of marriage between wealthy families! 】

[A talented man and a beautiful woman! Master Pei is ten thousand times better than Pei Yubai~! Let's be together~]

Yan Xi is full of a sense of crisis.

Compared to Pei Yubai, Pei Hanli is so talented!

She approached Zhou Qingyu and whispered to her, "What do you think of Pei Hanli?"

Zhou Qingyu thought for a moment, "Very good, good-looking, good personality, and sensible and obedient."

Yan Xi's heart was filled with alarm. This evaluation was extremely high for Zhou Qingyu, who was no longer in love!

Zhou Qingyu asked Yan Xi, "You don't like Pei Hanli?"

Zhou Qingyu could feel that every time she and Pei Hanli got close, Yan Xi would become particularly nervous.

Yan Xi nodded reluctantly.

How could she possibly like him? Pei Hanli is a villain!

"Pei Hanli is so cruel and ruthless!"

Zhou Qingyu asked back, "Isn't Zhou Yanci cruel and ruthless?" Considering that the Lin family's market value has evaporated by half, no one would think that Zhou Yanci is not cruel and ruthless, right?

"Pei Hanli is very scheming and is very careful in every step!"

"Isn't Zhou Yanci also very scheming and calculating at every step?"

"Pei Hanli's family relationships are a mess, the Pei family is in chaos!"

"The Meng family brothers and sisters are fighting for power and raising their grandson as their own son. Isn't this a mess?"

"Pei Hanli took advantage of your breakup and took advantage of you!"

"Didn't Zhou Yanci take advantage of our cold war and sneak in?"

Yan Xi was speechless.

Zhou Qingyu felt like a winner in an argument. She chuckled for two seconds, then suddenly felt something was wrong and became serious.

She lowered her brows, pinched Yan Xi's little face, and made her look directly at her.

"The person you talked to me about before the concert last time was Pei Hanli?"

Yan Xi's face was squeezed, and her words became incoherent. "The man you reminded me to be wary of last time... was Zhou Yanci?"

Zhou Qingyu was silent.

Yan Xi also fell silent.

The primeval forest gradually fell into an eerie silence.

Could it be that they spent a lot of time trying to persuade each other last week, but in vain?

Both of them held their foreheads helplessly.

"Alright," Zhou Qingyu pinched Yan Xi's face, "Pei Hanli is different from Pei Yubai. I know my limits. The Pei family is nothing to worry about. Don't worry!"

Yan Xi originally wanted to say a few more words, but after thinking about it, she remained silent.

The system squatted on Yan Xi's shoulder: [Host, are you not going to break up the eldest lady and Pei Hanli? Pei Hanli is the villain! ]

Yan Xi sighed in her heart, "She likes it, what can I do!"

To be honest, if it weren't for the character setting, Yan Xi wouldn't dislike Pei Hanli. In her opinion, Pei Hanli was very good to Zhou Qingyu and she couldn't find any fault with him.

She was just a little worried.

"Pei Hanli and Ye Luoyi have no direct relationship, so how come he is defined as the villain?"

[It is probably because Pei Yubai, the male protagonist's opponent, is naturally also the female protagonist's opponent! ]

Yan Xi stroked her chin and thought for two seconds, "According to what you said, if Pei Yubai is not the male protagonist, then does that mean Pei Hanli is not the villain?"

【？ ？ ？】

[Host, what are you talking about? How could Pei Yubai not be the male lead! ]

Yan Xi chuckled, "Didn't you say it earlier? This is a world formed by romance novels. Romance novels are of course female-centric. Although there are male and female protagonists, Ye Luoyi is the center of the world."

"Also, this is a popular novel. In this type of novel, the hero is not born a hero, but the heroine chooses him among many men, so he is the hero."

"When a novel is serialized, if readers make a fuss, the author may change the male lead. Now that Pei Yubai is like this, why is Ye Luoyi still obsessed with him?"

The system was terrified, and the small light ball kept circling around Yan Xi. Changing the male lead was simply the opposite of what Tian Gang was supposed to do. How could this be possible?

[Yesterday you proved to Ye Luoyi that Pei Yubai loves her to the point of madness and is willing to risk his life for her! How could Ye Luoyi give up on him!]

Yan Xi didn't care, her eyes were deep, "Love is love, hurt is real hurt, if a man's only value to a woman is 'love her', then what's the point of such a man?"
