gentle fairy tale

Chapter 65 65

On the way back from Huxin Park, the rain gradually lightened.

Pei Songxi parked the car on the side of the road.

The glass windows are lowered, and the wet and fresh smell of rain pours in, adding a little more freshness to the spring.

Wei Yi's call came in at this moment: "Mr. Pei, I have checked everything you want me to check."

Pei Songxi looked at the water droplets rolling down on the windshield, and said softly, "Got it."

"Are you still coming to the company today?"

"I won't come. You have something to do. Buy me two boxes of melatonin and sleeping pills."

The phone was cut off, and she sat quietly for a long time before restarting the car.

The tires splashed the rain all the way and went far away.

Sunday.

Pei Songxi flipped through the information that Wei Yi handed her: "Misappropriation of public funds, sale of company equity, bribery of officials... plus the issue of illegal drugs, Pei Linmao has been involved in so many unclean things."

Wei Yi nodded: "Mr. Pei probably thinks that he has done a good job. In fact, we have already mastered some materials, but you...have never said that you want to read them, so these materials are all in the file."

Pei Songxi smiled faintly: "Very good."

She is by no means a person who sits and waits to die. She endures again and again, but she is not without a bottom line.

Whether she is called cold-blooded and ruthless by others, or accused and abused by her family, she doesn't seem to care that much, and she will definitely not be soft-handed.

"Where is Yu's house?"

"Yu Anzhou and Mr. Pei seem to have always had a personal relationship, but he does things more safely and cleanly, so we haven't found any problems with him for the time being; Ms. Yu Anqing's husband passed away two years ago, and she didn't have any children. The new widow rarely goes out when she returns home. The husband seems to trust her very much, and even has a hint of handing over the family business to her."

"Oh," Pei Songxi concluded, "it's not even clean."

However, any stakeholder cannot speculate on the other party's position from the good side.

"Yes, we don't have other information yet, it may take another two days."

"Look up, where did the illegal drugs sold by Pei Linmao come from?"

Wei Yi's eyes lit up: "Yes... I almost forgot. You reminded me!"

Pei Songxi nodded: "Yu Anzhou is doing medical research and development, ethical issues, patent issues, legal issues, it is absolutely impossible to be too clean; also, check his competitors, there must be a lot of people who want him dead. We don't have to If you do it, someone will send him to jail, do you understand what I mean?"

Wei Yi wrote it down in his notebook: "Okay, I understand, I'll do it right away, you wait for me for two or three days."

Pei Songxi paused: "Go out."

Two or three days... is really too long.

The phone vibrated lightly on the table.

Pei Songxi focused her eyes, took the phone, and felt disappointed after seeing the caller: "Is there something wrong, Qingyuan."

Zhou Qingyuan's tone was cheerful: "It's okay. I just wanted to ask you, how are you?"

Pei Songxi said it was okay: "After taking melatonin, I slept better."

Zhou Qingyuan heard an empty echo from her side: "Are you back to the company?"

"Well, there's something to take care of."

"Are you in a better mood?"

"I'm not in a bad mood. I'm just... Qingyuan, I don't think my emotional state is right. You said a word to me before called excessive attachment. I thought about it. I might have a little bit. But I didn't last night Insomnia, I have now adjusted back."

Her tone was flat and straightforward, as if she was the usual cold-hearted and irrational person.

Zhou Qingyuan didn't quite believe it, but felt that it was too difficult to chat on the phone: "Take some time these few days, let's talk again."

"Okay. Hang up first."

"Hey, you started again. Why are you so impatient? You said that the little girl grew up beside you, so you didn't kill her?"

"Her," Pei Songxi couldn't help showing a faint smile, and his tone became softer, "I shouldn't have offended her...No, once, she got into trouble with me, and I said stop, and her eyes were red .”

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Qingyuan paused, and after a few seconds, he said quietly: "Okay, Songxi. Remember to spare time for me, let's have a chat."

"OK, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Pei Songxi remembered the few seconds when Zhou Qingyuan paused just now.

She is such a sensitive person, and she has dealt with Zhou Qingyuan before, so she knows that she is a person who can't hide her words. Her hesitation shows that she senses a serious problem, and she doesn't know how to speak. question.

Is it the 'over-attachment' just mentioned?

But this doesn't seem to be a big problem.

The phone vibrated a few more times, some trivial calls.

Pei Songxi lowered his head, tapped the phone screen a few times with his fingertips, thought for a moment, and set a new call reminder.

on Monday.

Wei Yi's work efficiency is very fast, her eyes are full of bloodshot eyes, she is not tired after staying up all night, but excited: "Mr. Pei! You guessed it right, Mr. Pei's medicine is taken from Mr. Yu Anzhou's hand Yes, it’s a secret route. If you don’t think in this direction, it’s quite difficult to find out this relationship.”

Pei Songxi said calmly: "As expected. Is there any special harvest?"

Wei Yi lowered his voice: "There is another piece of news. Mr. Pei has been in contact with many shareholders in private recently..."

"I know. It's clear at a glance what he wants to do, let alone. Where are his illegal drugs? Have you found the warehouse?"

"I found it, but it's not Mingchuan. In the small fishing village in the neighboring city, our people have already passed."

Pei Songxi tapped the screen lightly with her fingertips: "Wait a minute. What time is the meeting at Maoxiu in the afternoon?"

"Yes, we are ready to go."

Wei Yi called two assistants and was telling them some things, Ming Ran caught up and didn't know what he said to her.

Pei Songxi looked at the raindrops floating in the sky. When it was warm and cold, it cooled down after it rained, and it was a bit cold outside.

She put on the beige long windbreaker that was hanging on her arm, and just reached out to catch a little rain, when she saw a taxi stop by the side of the road.

She froze: "... Mianmian?"

The young girl wearing a white sweater and sneakers stood in the foggy spring rain, and soon saw her, her eyes lit up instantly, and she ran towards her in the rain without even bothering to open the umbrella.

She didn't care that there were people nearby, so she threw herself directly into her arms, into the windbreaker she hadn't had time to button up, and said in a quick and cheerful tone, "I'm back, Aunt Pei... I'm back!"

Pei Songxi subconsciously reached out and hugged her, almost wrapping her whole body in the windbreaker. After a few seconds, he let go of his hand, and his tone was very restrained and calm: "Why are you wearing this dress?"

Yu Mian raised her head in her arms, and subconsciously wrapped her arms around her waist, her tone was complaining and reproachful: "Aren't you happy to see me come back? Why do you still have the mood to care what I wear..."

Only then did Pei Songxi smile, took off the windbreaker and put it on her shoulders, gently embraced her with a natural movement, and brought her into his arms, lowered his head, and gently tapped on her eardrums with a pleasant voice: "Okay, wait for me, I'll say a few words to Wei Yi."

Yu Mian's cheeks that were blown cold by the cold wind suddenly felt a little hot: "Oh... okay, I'll wait for you."

The clothes on her shoulders seemed to still have a little heat that didn't belong to her. She lowered her head and sniffed lightly like a kitten. She could smell a little familiar good smell, which was cold and long-lasting, which she missed.

Wei Yi and Ming Ran were silent for a while behind, and exchanged glances quietly several times.

From the moment the girl threw herself into Pei Songxi's arms, they stopped talking. Whether it was the movement of Pei Songxi taking off his coat or the movement of embracing Yu Mian's shoulders, it felt... a bit weird.

Not only them, but even the two assistants holding memos and computers behind them were surprised... It is said that Mr. Pei has many suitors, but he has never seen her date a man. It turned out that it was because... I like it The person is a young and beautiful girl.

"Wei Yi, I will reject the afternoon session," Pei Songxi had already walked back, "Ming Ran, you can go if you want, this project is fully authorized to you."

Ming Ran froze for a moment: "What?"

Wei Yi reacted first: "Okay, Mr. Pei, I will report the specific work content to you later."

Pei Songxi nodded: "I need to contact you."

She simply explained and walked out, Ming Ran hesitated to speak, Wei Yi quietly pulled down the corner of her clothes: "Shh...don't ask."

Outside the gate of the company, Yu Mian was wearing her long windbreaker, leaning her head down through the puddles on the ground, um... this sweater is really not very good-looking, it looks a bit too loose, fat, it is too bloated up.

Alas...isn't it ugly?

When Pei Songxi approached, she just heard her sigh softly, and an umbrella quietly opened above her head: "What are you sighing? It's still raining, and I don't even know how to open an umbrella."

Yu Mian turned her head and smiled pleasantly when she saw her: "How are you?"

Pei Songxi embraced her and walked forward, continuing to ask the question just now: "What were you sighing just now?"

Yu Mian pursed her lower lip: "Because you dislike my ugly clothes."

Pei Songxi smiled helplessly, and reached out to touch her wet bangs, but her tone was very serious: "You don't wear too much, and you only wear a sweater and sneakers, are your hands cold? .”

Yu Mian said no, and took off her windbreaker and returned it to her: "I'm not cold!"

Pei Songxi pressed her hand: "Don't move. Don't take it off. Stand here and wait, I'll go get the car."

"Okay... hey, I'm really not cold."

She quickly drove the car out of the garage, and Yu Mian sat in the co-pilot happily.

When the heater in the car was turned on, she put her hand on the air outlet and shivered slightly: "It's still a little cold. I came out in such a hurry that I didn't even think about it, you don't know..."

Pei Songxi's voice was very soft: "I haven't explained to me yet, why did I come back suddenly, and didn't tell me, and there is nothing..."

Nothing... Called me.

For more than a week... She turned her mobile phone, which had always been on silent, to ring. In the first few days, she was always disturbed by some irrelevant social software messages. Later, she turned on 'Silent Do Not Disturb' for everyone, but She did not wait for her news.The phone is also... The ringtone she set for her never rang.

Yu Mian finally waited until she asked this question, and blinked at her: "You don't think that if I really leave, I won't come back, do you?"

"I...of course not."

In fact, there is such a moment, only a short while.

Yu Mian frowned, and turned her head to look at her: "It's good that you don't think so."

"Okay, now it's time to tell me."

Yu Mian nodded: "That day when I came out of Teacher Fang's house, I met the driver next to my aunt waiting for me. He said he wanted to invite me to a place. I thought about it, and I will go with him or not. I was tied up by him, so I went."

Pei Songxi looked ahead and listened intently to her: "Well, then..."

"Then……"

While talking, Yu Mian lowered her head a little embarrassedly: "Let's talk about it when we go home..."

When Pei Songxi heard her say 'go home', the corners of her lips curled up silently: "Okay."

There were no fresh ingredients in the kitchen, so Yu Mian ordered delivery in the car using fresh food software, and when he got home, he just picked up fresh meat and vegetables.

The refrigerator was empty, with nothing in it. She put the meat and vegetables she just bought into it, and it was only half full.

She frowned, looking a little fierce: "Pei Xixi! Have you not eaten properly these days?"

Pei Songxi just found a clean bed sheet and quilt cover, and was about to go upstairs, she pursed her lips and smiled: "...Fortunately, I have work meals."

Yu Mian was very dissatisfied with this answer, went back and forth at home a few times, opened the window to let in the wind, and saw the wrinkled oranges, it was a pity: "This one is spoiled, why don't you eat it?"

"Hmm... forgot."

Pei Songxi lowered his head and smiled.

She is not very old, and she still manages things in a way.

But... as soon as she came back, her lively and cheerful tone, the sound of her footsteps running upstairs, and the unconcealable freshness in her eyebrows and eyes seemed to quietly fill up the empty things in this house up.

When Yu Mian went upstairs to inspect, Pei Songxi went into the kitchen and made the simplest tomato and egg noodles.

No way, after so many years, she seems to only know this.

After the two bowls of noodles were brought to the table, Yu Mian had finished looking around the house, and just as she came down, she asked a bunch of questions: "Student Pei Xixi, I think you need to reflect on yourself."

Pei Songxi nodded: "Yes. But before I reflect on it, do you want to tell me why you promised to leave that day, and now it seems that you came back secretly?"

"Cough..." Yu Mian bit the noodles, paused, her cheeks blushed a little, "Then let's talk while eating, don't be so serious, okay?"

Pei Songxi pursed her lower lip, not knowing who was so serious just now.

Yu Mian poked the eggs in the bowl with her chopsticks: "Actually, before that day, my aunt came to look for me at the school gate."

"Well, I talked to you."

"Yes, I talked to me for a while. I felt that she was very familiar and kind, so I knew she was not lying to me. But... I was very confused at the time. Hey... do you know about this?"

Pei Songxi gave her all the eggs in the bowl: "I know."

Yu Mian let out a cry, her face turned red, and her voice lowered: "...how do you know. I didn't deliberately lie to you that day. I was just... just a little messed up, and wanted to tell you about it, but I was afraid that you would directly say that you would send me back."

Pei Songxi froze for a moment, then hummed lightly.

So... is Mianmian so afraid of her sending her away?

"I went to Teacher Fang's class the next day. I made up my mind and told you when I came back. But as soon as I came out, I saw my aunt's driver. He said they were waiting for me. There was no one around at that time. I took the initiative to go with him or not, and seeing that he meant to go or not, I secretly wrote down the license plate number and got in the car."

"I should give you that day..." Pei Songxi lowered his head, "I didn't think about it."

Yu Mian finished eating the eggs, and found another poached egg hidden under the bowl: "Not anymore, this incident was too sudden. I continued to talk, and then I found that Uncle Pei was there, I met him My aunt is here, and the person who said it was my uncle is also there. I know that Uncle Pei has not had a good relationship with you for so many years, so I secretly listened to them. "

"What did you hear?"

Yu Mian rubbed her ears annoyed: "I didn't hear it very clearly, but I guess they were going to do something to you. I was not at ease. When I saw you later, I... I was very entangled. This time I can Refuse to go back with them, but I can't not go back forever, so you will be very embarrassed. So I agreed, and I want to know what they want to do..."

She may have been confused for a while, but after thinking about it clearly, it was not that difficult to make a choice.Although reluctant, she still wants to know what Pei Linmao and Yu Anzhou want to do. She can't escape forever, let alone watch others want to hurt her most important person.

She didn't know why the strange relatives appeared at this time, but the only thing that was certain was that they wouldn't do anything to her, otherwise they wouldn't need to pick her up at all, just find someone to kidnap her.

But now thinking of this, she lowered her voice: "The time left for me was so short, I didn't have time to talk to you, so I followed them away. My aunt could see that I was nervous, she kept talking to me, But I can't believe her either. After returning home, grandpa seems to miss me very much, but... I always feel that someone is watching me secretly. I dare not call you. "

Only then did I realize my impulsiveness belatedly, and I would also be nervous and afraid.

Fortunately, what Yu Anqing said was right, Mr. Yu treated her very well and attached great importance to her, and later specially assigned her a bodyguard.

As she spoke, she suddenly became nervous: "By the way, Aunt Pei, I secretly listened to it once. Later, Uncle Pei called my uncle and seemed to be talking about medicine. Then..."

Pei Songxi stared at her a little deeper: "Did you eavesdrop?"

"Your focus... what medicine are they talking about, do you know, do you want sister Wei Yi to pay attention to this matter?"

Pei Songxi smiled deeply, staring at her with obvious warmth: "Well, good. Are we Mianmian so powerful now?"

Yu Mian felt even more embarrassed when she saw her, and wanted to bury her face in the bowl: "Wuuuuuu, don't look at me like that. I know I'm wrong, it's too risky, and it's not safe at all. But I... "

Pei Songxi turned her head: "But what?"

Yu Mian sighed softly, raised her head, covered her face with her palms, her ears were still pink, only a pair of clear and shy eyes were exposed, her expression was tense, and her tone was serious: "But I want to protect you."

There are still so many things left unsaid, hey...she actually couldn't sleep these few days every day, she would miss her, worry about her, be afraid that she would be angry, and be afraid that she really didn't want her anymore.

Pei Songxi met those clear and dust-free eyes, and read all her unspoken words, and read her restless heart.

Nervous, anxious, uneasy, but always trust, attach, and believe in her wholeheartedly.

After Yu Mian finished speaking these words in one breath, she didn't hear her response after several seconds. She couldn't sit any longer, so she pushed the chair away and ran upstairs: "I, I'll go back to the room to have a rest, I'm too sleepy !"

Only then did Pei Songxi come back to her senses, and smiled lightly... It seemed like she hadn't had time to ask her why she came back alone.

For a moment she didn't know what to say.

Mian Mian is a girl who hasn't grown up yet. If she meets this kind of person in the workplace, Pei Songxi will only laugh at her naivety, but... But she is the girl she watched grow up, the little rose she planted by herself , Warm and beautiful, simple and pure, she has never seen the darkness of the world, but she only wants her well with all her heart.

She always seems to be able to easily pinch the most tender ground at the tip of her heart, so precise...that her whole heart collapses easily for her.

She seemed to be... burnt by this pure, hot, hot heart.
