Chapter 30
"I just want to focus on my studies right now."
When Qiao Nan heard this, he quietly pursed his lips.
A trace of inexplicable dissatisfaction rose in his heart, especially when he looked at Pei Xu, he felt that his brother's handsome face had become hideous, and he didn't want to look at it for a second, so he stood up suddenly and said: " I'm sleepy, I'm going back to my room to sleep."
Then, without waiting for Zhou Ruo and Pei Xu to react, they stomped upstairs.
"This kid, just let him fall in love and lose his temper." Zhou Ruo laughed and shook his head.
Pei Xu glanced at his back, chatted with Zhou Ruo for a while, and then followed him upstairs.
Seeing that the two entered different rooms, Zhou Ruo was stunned for a moment, and called Uncle Wang to ask, "Why did Nan Nan and Pei Xu sleep in separate rooms?"
Uncle Wang laughed and said: "After hearing that the young master has a girlfriend, he moved out arguing, saying that he can't always stick to the young master."
Zhou Ruo also laughed: "I thought he was going to be jealous of his future sister-in-law, but he is more sensible than I thought."
She recalled her previous suspicions in Guibei, and thought that maybe she had been a lawyer for a long time, but she became suspicious because of the little intimate behavior of the two brothers.She and Qiao Shi'an are often not at home. The two brothers grew up relying on each other, and their relationship is better and closer than other brothers, which is normal. On the contrary, she thinks too much.
Pei Xu stayed at Qiao's house for three days. After Qiao Shi'an and his wife returned to Yanjing, they returned to Boting Mansion.
On the way back, he asked old K to send the photos during this period to his mailbox, and when he got home, he went to the study to check the email.
Since he hasn't asked old K for a photo for a long time, the email this time is very large.
It took a few minutes to download the attachments, and Pei Xu clicked on the photos to look at them one by one.
At first he still had a slight smile on his face, but when he saw the photo on September [-], the expression on his face faded.
The scroll wheel of the mouse slides slowly, and the photos keep flipping back and forth. Xie Ruanruan appears almost every day.
Or take a walk on campus, or eat together, or go to the studio together...
There was no intimate physical movement between the two, but at the same age, just standing together between a youthful boy and a girl was enough to be eye-catching.
Pei Xu thought of Zhou Ruo's words again.
Similar age, similar family background, and the same major in the same school... No matter how you look at it, they are very suitable.
The treasure that he had cherished for a long time was suddenly coveted by others, and uncontrollable hostility rose from the bottom of his heart, making him eager to destroy something in order to relieve the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart.
I want to see Qiao Nan more.
During this period of time, he forced himself to stay away from the other party, not to spy on the other party's whereabouts, and he didn't even dare to reply to the WeChat messages. He thought that this would bring back his sanity that was on the verge of collapse and maintain the usual relationship.But the result is that Qiao Nan is stepping towards a situation beyond his control.
He meets new people, may start a relationship, may even marry and have children, and start a happy family with someone else.
This is what he expected, the path he had envisioned for Qiao Nan.But when it really came, he didn't accept it as calmly as he expected.
Pei Xu stared at the photo of the two eating together, and the mouse in his palm made an unbearable creaking sound.Because of too much force, horrible blue veins protruded from the back of his hand.
He stared at the photo for a long time before he stood up, took off his glasses, loosened his tie, and walked to the gym.
This time the venting was more intense than ever.
He took off his shirt, did not wear protective gloves, and punched the sandbag with the most primitive attack method.
The muscles of the exposed body are tense, and the veins on the side of the neck are distinct.He wantonly vented the destructive desire in his heart, but the pain from his knuckles didn't make him back down, it only made his suppressed emotions more turbulent.
After an hour of uninterrupted violent beating, the sandbag finally exploded, and the filling material inside leaked all over the place.
Pei Xu gasped and stopped, his fingers were scratched due to lack of protection, his body was red from excessive exercise, sweat dripped down his forehead, and even his calm narrow eyes seemed to be stained red.
He lay slumped on the cold floor tiles. The cold temperature of the floor tiles dilutes the hotness in his body. After he calmed down for a long time, he called Zhao Bo.
"Have you found the person you were looking for?"
Zhao Bo: "I found it."
"Where is the person now, drive over to pick me up, I want to go there."
After hanging up the phone, Pei Xu went to take a cold shower first, then changed into a new set of clothes, tied his bow tie into a double Windsor knot meticulously, put on his glasses before going out.
Zhao Bo had already driven downstairs and waited.
Seeing him coming, he noticed the injury on his hand first, and was shocked: "Boss Pei, your hand?"
Pei Xu glanced down, but did not explain: "It's okay, let's go."
Seeing this, Zhao Bo didn't ask any more questions, and drove to Helens.
Helens is a KTV located near the Nanjiang Academy of Fine Arts. It's not high-end, and most of them are gangsters who come and go. The four gangsters Pei Xu asked him to find often come and go here.
A black Bentley stopped at the door, welcoming the two of them in.
Pei Xu asked for the biggest box, opened four more bottles of wine, and asked Zhao Bo to invite someone.
Those four gangsters were the ones who harassed Xie Ruanruan before, they were released after being detained for fifteen days, and they happened to be in Helens today.
When Zhao Bo went to invite people, the leader called Brother Mao was still a little confused: "Who is your boss? Why do you want us?"
Zhao Bobo said politely: "Our boss's surname is Pei, you will know when you go to meet him."
The other three were a little timid, wondering if they had unintentionally provoked some important person, and the other party came to make trouble.But considering that they were all reformed in the detention center during this period, they shouldn't mess with anyone.Moreover, there were a few princesses accompanying the wine in the box, they were also regular customers, and they didn't want to lose face in front of women, so they followed Zhao Bo out.
Along the way, Brother Mao still wanted to inquire about some news, but Zhao Bo only politely detoured and didn't reveal a word.
When he reached the door of the box, he pushed open the door and gestured for him to come in.
Brother Mao and the others looked inside and saw that there was only one person inside, so they immediately walked in with confidence.
Zhao Bo thoughtfully closed the door and stood guard outside.
After entering the door, Brother Mao carefully looked at the person sitting there, and confirmed that he didn't know him, and he shouldn't have had a grudge against him.Looking at the other party's suit and leather shoes and wearing glasses, he looks like a refined elite, and I'm afraid that there is something unclean that I want to ask them to do.
Taking another look at the wine on the coffee table, they were all good wines starting at [-] a bottle, and they seemed to be pretty decent.
So he sat down on the sofa in front of the other party, and raised his posture: "What can Boss Pei want from us?"
Pei Xu didn't answer, got up and opened the song list of the karaoke station, played a few explosive rock songs slowly, and turned the volume to the maximum.
"No big deal, just have an old account to settle with everyone."
"What?" The suddenly high-pitched music covered his voice, and Brother Mao said loudly, "What did you say?"
Pei Xu remained silent, took off his glasses and put them aside.
Several people finally realized that it was not good, this person didn't look like he was going to talk about business.
Someone wanted to walk towards the door, but before his hand could touch the door, a bottle of wine suddenly hit the door and exploded with a "bang"——
Zhao Bo outside the door first heard the "bang" of the door leaf, and then heard the faint fighting sound coming from inside. He resisted looking in through the hollowed-out glass gap.
During the period, some waiters passed by, but they were all dismissed by him in a few words.
Half an hour later, Pei Xu opened the door and came out.
He didn't look any different from before, except that his immaculate suit was a little wrinkled, and his overall demeanor was no longer gentle, like a knife with a sharp and cold edge, which made people dare not look directly at him.
"Send people to the hospital, and the medical expenses will be taken from my private account."
Zhao Bo didn't dare to look directly at him for a moment, he lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Yes."
Pei Xu left first.
After the [-]th holiday, Qiao Nan resumed his two-point and one-line life at school and at home.
Xie Ruanruan also officially started classes, and she also intends to enter Lao Li's first studio, so she has more time to come to Qiao Nan's studio with her homework to gain experience.
In the past, he was told by his mother that he regarded Xie Ruanruan as his little sister, and he didn't think too much about it.But after Zhao Yutong and his mother misunderstood one after another, Qiao Nan also reflected on it, and felt that no matter what he thought in his heart, the two were not brothers and sisters after all, and it was better to keep some distance so that people would not misunderstand him. Not good.
He began to deliberately keep a distance from Xie Ruanruan. Sometimes Xie Ruanruan asked questions, but he pushed them to Zhao Yutong.
Zhao Yutong was naturally happy to guide the beautiful school girl, but Xie Ruanruan was obviously not stupid, and it didn't take long for him to notice Qiao Nan's intentional or unintentional alienation.
Although she looks quiet and well-behaved on the outside, she is actually a bold girl.
Taking advantage of the time when it was only her and Qiao Nan, she said bluntly: "You have been avoiding me on purpose recently, don't you like me?"
Unexpectedly, she was so straightforward, Qiao Nan paused, and chose to tell the truth: "I like you, I have always regarded you as my younger sister, and my mother also asked me to take care of you."
This was already a very tactful refusal.
Xie Ruanruan sighed: "But I quite like you, don't you really want to try with me?"
She counted with her fingers and said, "I'm pretty good-looking. Aunt Zhou and Uncle Zhou also liked me very much when we met last time. We have similar family backgrounds. If we want to fall in love, I think we are quite suitable." She rolled her eyes as she spoke. Turn around: "Or do you already have someone you like?"
Qiao Nan couldn't talk about relationship issues with the opposite sex as frankly as she did, so she blushed in embarrassment and said, "No, I just want to concentrate on my studies at the moment."
Xie Ruanruan laughed instead, not looking very distressed: "Forget it, I have always been chased by others, I don't like to chase after me, and beautiful women also want face."
Qiao Nan said "sorry" again.
"Don't say sorry, as if I was rejected by you." Xie Ruanruan waved his hand and asked again: "Then I can go to your studio from now on, right?"
Seeing that she looked calm and didn't look sad, Qiao Nan relaxed a little: "Of course."
Xie Ruanruan laughed: "Then let's pretend that what happened today never happened."
The author says:
Big Brother Pei: Angry, jealous and misses his wife.
Nannan: I don't want to fall in love, I just want to concentrate on my studies.
Brother Pei: .
