Chapter 61 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 60Next chapter: Chapter 62 Mrs. Xiao was not surprised that her eldest son would behave like this.
The contrast between the eldest son and the second son is very extreme. If she hadn't given birth to both children, she would have doubted whether they were biological brothers. Their personalities were so different. One was too responsible and the other was not. Heart.
In Cheng Xiu's heart, there may be nothing more important than the glory of the Xiao family and the Xiao family. Without discussion, without any response from the Xiao family, the Sang family announced the termination of their relationship in advance, which would definitely have a certain impact on the company and the family. Of course, in her opinion, the Sang family should do this. Speaking of which, it was the Xiao family that felt sorry for Yaoyao.
Mrs. Xiao thought for a moment and decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with her eldest son.
You can't be too defensive about your shortcomings. It was Jingqiao who was wrong, not Yaoyao. You can't have negative emotions towards the Sang family and Yaoyao.
Mrs. Xiao thought so in her heart, but comforted Sang Yao: "No, your eldest brother has always been like this. In fact, he still cares about you very much. He was very concerned about you and Jingqiao's affairs before, and even made a special call. After asking me, maybe there have been a lot of things in the past two days. Jingqiao has caused him too much trouble. Your uncle has a careless temper. This family relies on your eldest brother. He is not unhappy. Really. Don't think too much."
Sang Yao listened on the surface, but she didn't dare to relax at all. This time she didn't inform him in advance, and the Sang family didn't discuss it with the Xiao family, so she just published it in the newspaper. Wouldn't she misunderstand the Sang family and she deliberately wanted to slap the Xiao family in the face?
This is a huge misunderstanding!
No, her relationship with Xiao Chengxiu has improved at a speed visible to the naked eye due to her efforts. She cannot be affected by this incident. She must find a chance to explain it to Xiao Chengxiu and throw away all the blame. Go to Xiao Jingqiao.
When Mrs. Xiao saw Sang Yao packing her luggage, her heart ached, thinking that Yaoyao was leaving the Xiao family, and how much less laughter and laughter this family would have in the future.
Seeing Mrs. Xiao's expression, Sang Yao hurriedly said: "Aunt..."
Mrs. Xiao corrected her with a smile, "Now you are still calling me aunt, you should call me mom."
Sang Yao was a little embarrassed, "Mom..."
"This That's right." Mrs. Xiao was still a little disappointed. After all, she had watched Yaoyao grow up. She was sad to lose such a daughter-in-law, but she quickly cheered up again, "Yao Yao. Yao, grandma will be back in a while. She will definitely be sad if she sees you not at home. You don't have to move, this will always be your home."
Although Mrs. Xiao was very sincere, Sang Yao said . She is not so shameless. Before she and Xiao Jingqiao broke off their engagement, she still had reason to live in the Xiao family. Now that they have broken off their engagement, if she still hangs on, others might think she is trying to refuse but still welcome her. .
She smiled and shook her head, "I will come back to see you and grandma often. The house my parents bought for me is a bit far away from the company, and I don't plan to live there yet. My parents want me to rent a house while watching If you find a suitable house, buy it. I have already contacted my mother's assistant and asked her to help rent a large flat floor for you and grandma. If you miss me, you are always welcome to live there. "
Xiao . Madam also knew that it was inappropriate for Sang Yao to live in Xiao's house anymore. She felt regretful and said, "Stop renting a house. You can't live in other people's houses as comfortably as your own. It just so happens that I have a house in my name." , Chengxiu also lives in that community, but it’s just in a different building in the same community. It’s very convenient. You can live there temporarily. You and Chengxiu also have mutual care. If you have any questions, you can go to him directly and I’ll help you. Find an aunt to take care of your daily life, but you have to promise me to come back often to have dinner with grandma and me. "
Live in the same community as Xiao Chengxiu?"
This can be done! As the saying goes, those who are close to the water, first get the moon, no, no, no, this sentence seems inappropriate when applied to her and Xiao Chengxiu, but as they live close to each other, the relationship will naturally become closer. In the future, there will be a big brother like Xiao Chengxiu. Being a backer makes me laugh out of my dreams.
Sang Yao is not a shy person. After all, Mrs. Xiao is her godmother. Thinking of this, she nodded, "Okay, I feel safe living in the same community with my eldest brother."
She originally wanted to tell Mrs. Xiao I wanted to say thank you, but thinking that they were already considered acquaintances, saying thank you would be too disrespectful, so I gave up.
Mrs. Xiao thought for a while and then said: "The impact of the dissolution of your engagement with Jingqiao is still a bit big. Don't worry, after the storm is over, I will hold a recognition banquet and invite many people in the circle. It is announced in public that you will be my daughter from now on. After that, if you move back to live with me, no one will talk about it. What do you think?"
Of course Sang Yao has no objection, she is eager to do so, although she no longer wants to. How to interact with the original owner's former friends, to a certain extent, it is a unilateral break away from the circle of celebrities in the capital, but there is no shortage of people in this world who flatter others and add insult to injury. There must be someone waiting to see her joke. The marriage recognition banquet had only advantages and no disadvantages for her. She liked to make a big splash when others thought she had lost power.
"Okay." Sang Yao said gratefully, but she was a little embarrassed. In order to worry that Xiao Jingqiao, a fool, would interfere with her, she did not forget to remind Mrs. Xiao, "I'm afraid Jingqiao won't agree."
After all, her fiancée turned into a younger sister. , it’s really a little exciting.
Mrs. Xiao didn't care about this: "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with him."
After hearing what Mrs. Xiao said, Sang Yao felt completely at ease. With Mrs. Xiao as her godmother and Xiao Chengxiu as her elder brother, her future journey will be much smoother.
***
Just when Sang Yao was about to ask Xiao Chengxiu for a good explanation, she found that the other party had already gone abroad on a business trip.
Xiao Chengxiu is really busy. He feels like he has no rest all year round. I heard from Ada that he might stay abroad for more than half a month this time. For more than half a month, Sang Yao was anxious. Some things must be explained as soon as possible and at the time. If explained after this time period, the effect will not be very great. It was impossible for her to go abroad to find Xiao Chengxiu. After much deliberation, she decided to explain to Xiao Chengxiu online, but found that she only had the other party's mobile phone number and didn't even add him on WeChat!
Careless!
She cautiously sent him a text message first: "Brother, I have something to tell you. Can you add your WeChat account?"
There was no reply after sending it. There was a time difference between home and abroad, so she guessed that he might be sleeping.
Sang Yao will accompany Mrs. Xiao to a dinner party today. Mrs. Xiao seems to be very concerned about this dinner. She has been giving her instructions on what clothes to wear, what jewelry to wear, and what shoes to match since yesterday.
Since the last time she wore a cheongsam, Mrs. Xiao has often asked a tailor to come to her home to measure her measurements and have someone design a cheongsam for her. Now she has five or six cheongsams in her wardrobe. Today she wore a light apricot-colored cheongsam. Winter had officially entered. Fortunately, there were heaters wherever she went. A long coat was enough to keep her warm.
Her skin was originally very white, and she had also improved her complexion during this period. She put on a slim-fitting cheongsam, which showed off her figure. On her thin white wrist was a jade bracelet of good color, which made her look gentle and dignified. nice.
Sang Yao came down the stairs with a bag in one hand and a coat in the other. Mrs. Xiao felt happy and melancholy when she saw her like this.
"Our Yaoyao is so beautiful." Mrs. Xiao looked at her and praised her sincerely, "Whoever marries you in the future will be lucky. I have seen so many girls, but I have never seen anyone wearing a cheongsam. It’s more suitable and beautiful than Yaoyao.”
Sang Yao is very self-aware. This cheongsam is specially designed and made by heavy workers. Every detail is very particular. The fabric and the embroidery work are different from the cheongsams that cost hundreds of yuan outside. Sometimes they are not worn by people. , but the clothes flatter people, she feels that wearing this cheongsam magnifies the advantages of the figure and hides the shortcomings.
"Then let's go." Mrs. Xiao held Sang Yao's hand and warned carefully, "Today is Mrs. Pei's dinner party. When you were young, your mother and I took you to Pei's house, but you must I don’t remember.”
Sang Yao certainly didn’t know about things that the original owner might not remember.
Looking at Sang Yao's face as white as jade, Mrs. Xiao sighed in her heart. After all, she was the child she watched grow up. Her best friend's physical condition was not very good. Those in the Sang family couldn't care about Yaoyao. She can only help Yaoyao worry more.
In fact, Sang Yao is still young now, and will only be twenty-three when the new year comes. However, Mrs. Xiao does not dare to delay. On the one hand, she wants to help her get out of the shadow of her last relationship, and on the other hand, she wants to introduce her to this new relationship. Excellent men in the circle.
No matter which circle you are in, there are always very few truly outstanding men. Yaoyao doesn't have many friends of the opposite sex. Even if she doesn't want to develop a relationship, it's not a bad thing to get to know more friends of the opposite sex and get along more with her. She has thought about it, and while she still has the strength and energy, she must help Yaoyao choose the most suitable and outstanding one, so that she can rest assured and feel less guilty.
Mrs. Xiao took Sang Yao's hand and sighed in her heart, what a good girl, why didn't she have this fate with the Xiao family.
Chapter 62 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 61Next chapter: Chapter 63 Sang Yao thought this was a gathering between noble ladies. When she got to the private room of the club, she was a little surprised when she saw that there was only a graceful middle-aged woman inside.
"Yao Yao, this is Mrs. Pei. You call her aunt. She hugged you when you were a child." Mrs. Xiao smiled and said to Sang Yao, and then said to Mrs. Pei: "This is Yaoyao. You may not even recognize her." Well, I have been staying abroad for the past few years and refused to come back. What's the matter? Is the moon rounder abroad?"
Mrs. Pei glared at Mrs. Xiao deliberately, then took Sang Yao's hand and looked up and down, exclaiming, "What a great woman. Ba Bian, she was chubby when she was young, but she is so beautiful now. I think female celebrities are not as good-looking as our Yaoyao. It makes people like her! How can Ruan Wan have such a good life and be so good at giving birth? I'm so jealous. "
Ruan Wan is Mrs. Sang's name. It seems that Mrs. Pei, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Sang were good friends before they got married.
In response to this enthusiastic elder-like compliment, Sang Yao bowed her head and smiled shyly with a very experienced expression, her mouth was also very sweet, "Thank you, aunt, I also think that aunt is very beautiful and has a very good temperament."
Mrs. Pei was overjoyed after hearing this. Sheng, holding Sang Yao's hand and refusing to let go, "Good boy, my aunt just came back from abroad. She has not been in the country for the past few years. In the future, your godmother will come to my house to play more often, but your godmother will take advantage of her." , otherwise I would like to recognize you as my daughter. I really dream of having a daughter."
Mrs. Xiao pushed her, "Don't snatch it from me!"
Mrs. Pei said cheerfully. "It's okay if we don't want to be my daughter. Maybe we'll all be a family from now on."
? ?
? ? ?
How come you are so fat? ? Could it be that these two noble ladies had made some deal that she didn't know about? ?
Why did it feel like a blind date, but she didn't see the male protagonist.
Before Sang Yao could express her doubts, Mrs. Pei raised her head and looked at the time again, and said slightly apologetically: "It's the rush hour for work now. There may be a traffic jam on the road. I'll call Pei Chi later to remind him. Him. "
Who is Pei Chi?"
Since the surprised expression on Sang Yao's face was too obvious, Mrs. Xiao felt that it was necessary to explain it to her, so she pulled Sang Yao up and said to Mrs. Pei: "I'll whisper something to Yaoyao and come back later."
Xiao Madam is not an ungrateful person. It seems that the relationship with Madam Pei is definitely good to a certain extent, otherwise she would not be so "letting go".
Mrs. Pei was also a little surprised, but she quickly realized that her good friends were probably also "killing them first and telling them later". Yes, parents nowadays are so humble.
She immediately nodded with understanding, "Go, go, Pei Chi probably won't arrive for a while."
So, Mrs. Xiao took Sang Yao to the empty box on this floor, closed the door and , Mrs. Xiao said to Sang Yao with some embarrassment: "Yao Yao, you should also be able to see that I want to introduce you to a friend. Don't get me wrong. I really have no other intention. I just think that you are with me now." We don’t keep up with the friends we used to have. A young man’s life would be more colorful if he had more friends, don’t you think?”
Sang Yao: “?”
It seems that he wants to introduce someone to her. This is too fresh and refined. Alright!
Mrs. Xiao took Sang Yao's hand and sat down. After clearly explaining her purpose, she said seriously: "Yao Yao, listen to me, this Pei Chi is the child of the second wife of the Pei family. The Pei Chi just now is Madam is a friend of your mother and I when we were young. She is Pei Chi's aunt. Pei Chi is a poor child. His parents are gone. Now he is alone and can be considered as independent. He is very capable and his company has been listed on the market. , All in all, he is a very good child." When
Mrs. Xiao saw that Sang Yao was just silent and showed no disgust or rejection, she felt reassured and said, "Speaking of which, Pei Chi and your eldest brother are still friends. They are about the same age. I know that he is a bit old for you, but Yaoyao, it is not a bad thing for this man to be older. He will be more tolerant of you and more mature mentally. Pei Chi has a successful career, is mature and stable, and has a simple family relationship. He is the only one who can make the decision on everything. Your elder brother has said before that Pei Chi is very good. I believe in your elder brother's vision. Of course, Yaoyao, you don't need to feel pressure, just get to know him and make friends. "
Sang Yao knows that she cannot avoid this kind of thing. If the plot is really the same as the original work, after she and Xiao Jingqiao received the certificate, Xiao Jingqiao lost his life to save the heroine. In sadness and despair, she decided to die alone, and no one would There was nothing she could do about it, but it was different now. She was no longer tied to Xiao Jingqiao, and she still wanted to live a leisurely life by herself with the original owner's savings. She felt that she was fanciful.
If it were an ordinary family, she could be tough and ignore the original owner's family and still be able to live with it, but even if the Sang family went downhill, it was still a wealthy family. After enjoying excellent material conditions, wouldn't they still want to contribute to the family? It’s really hard to explain.
Since you can't avoid it, take the initiative to accept it.
She believed that Mrs. Xiao must have carefully screened for her before selecting such a person. It can be concluded from Mrs. Xiao's words that Pei Chi is thirty years old this year, has a successful career, excellent abilities, has no father or mother, and has a simple family relationship. He can make the decision himself. If she can marry him in the future, she will do it as soon as she gets married. The hostess has no pressure from her parents-in-law, and has the support of the Xiao family and the Sang family. As long as Pei Chi has a clear head and is not a fool like Xiao Jingqiao, he will treat her well.
Birds of a feather flock together, just as Mrs. Xiao said, Pei Chi is a person that Xiao Chengxiu recognizes, so there is nothing to say. After thinking about it, Sang Yao nodded, "Okay."
If they are not suitable for each other, then When friends are in the same place, if it's suitable, a rich, handsome person like Pei Chi is someone she could never reach in her previous life, so why not.
Mrs. Xiao heard Sang Yao's answer and breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of her heart. She was afraid that Yaoyao would get into trouble.
That was Jingqiao's fault, not Yaoyao's fault. Yaoyao shouldn't punish herself for other people's mistakes.
In the box, Mrs. Pei also looked carefully at Pei Chi, who had just arrived, and was very satisfied. Pei Chi was tall and tall, and his appearance was similar to that of her deceased sister-in-law. Although she was not as good as the two sons of the Xiao family, she was In Beijing, this kind of appearance and bearing can also be ranked high.
"Come on, come on, straighten your hair and tie." Mrs. Pei took out a mirror from her bag and handed it to him, "The good looks your parents gave you are not such a waste. Look at the tie you match. , No, I have to find a stylist for you."
Pei Chi felt something was wrong when he heard this and asked, "Are you going to arrange a blind date for me again?"
Although it was a question, he was already very sure and helpless. "It's really not necessary. I'm very busy with work every day now, and I don't have the time or the mind to think about these things."
Mrs. Pei pulled him to sit down again and said kindly, "No matter how busy you are at work, You can't ignore your life-long affairs. Your uncle has urged me several times to help you pay attention to suitable good girls in your circle. Forget about the ones you didn't like in the past. This time, I guarantee you will. I like it, which means you're lucky enough to catch up. I'll make an appointment for you now. After a while, you won't even have the chance to get to know each other on a blind date! "
"You said the same thing last time." Chi said.
Mrs. Pei glared at him, "I guarantee you will like it this time. Let's do this. If you don't even like this person, then probably no one in this circle will be able to catch your eye, and I will never do it again." I’ve arranged it for you, okay?”
"I hope you're not just talking this time." Pei Chi also became Buddhist about this. When he is over thirty, it seems that not having a girlfriend or getting married is a sin. He can't help but envy Xiao Chengxiu, who is both single in his thirties. Dog, why doesn't he have to face these troubles?
Just as Pei Chi was thinking about what kind of excuse he should give to refuse after the meal was over, someone came in. He sat on the couch and subconsciously raised his head to look. The first person to come in was Mrs. Xiao. He quickly stood up. He stood up and said hello to Mrs. Xiao: "Hello, Auntie."
Pei Chi didn't expect to see Mrs. Xiao, and his mind was spinning rapidly. Could it be that his blind date was related to Mrs. Xiao? It couldn't be Xiao Yayin. After all, She is only eighteen years old, could she be Mrs. Xiao's niece?
Before Pei Chi could remember what Xiao Chengxiu's cousins looked like, Sang Yao appeared in his sight.
The heating in the club was fully turned on. She was not wearing a coat. She was wearing a light apricot cheongsam. Her hair was pulled up. Her earrings and jade bracelets were a set. This kind of dress gave her a gentleness that was reserved for ladies during the Republic of China period. .
Sang Yao raised her head and met Pei Chi's eyes.
Sang Yao guessed that this person should be her blind date today. Among the rich second generation, people with such looks and temperament are no longer common. It can be seen that Mrs. Xiao really put a lot of effort into finding such a suitable person for her. object. She was not shy, nor was she coy. She smiled at Pei Chi.
Her eyes are the most beautiful, and when she smiles, they seem to be filled with autumn water, gentle and clear.
Pei Chi was stunned, unable to recover.
When Mrs. Pei saw her nephew like this, she knew something in her heart. She just said that men like beautiful women. Even a middle-aged woman like her would be surprised and fall in love when she saw little Yaoyao from the Sang family, let alone the elders. Pig trotters.
Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Pei looked at each other, both satisfied, knowing that if nothing unexpected happened, these two people would definitely have something to play for.
At their age, as long as they can create a couple, they will feel a sense of accomplishment.
Mrs. Xiao still felt a little melancholy, always feeling that this good cabbage was going to be eaten by the pigs from outside her family.
The author has something to say: I went to the hospital a few days ago to check on my hair loss problem. I went to get the results today. The doctor said that I didn’t have hair loss (I hope he didn’t comfort me). It was mainly due to seasonality and physical weakness = = Having said that, I Both my parents have very nice and thick hair. Now that they are fifty, their hairline is perfect. Why did it happen to me like this? 2333 Now a lot of hair falls out after washing.
Chapter 63 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 62Next chapter: Chapter 64 Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Pei were both familiar with it. After introducing the two of them, they wisely found reasons and excuses to leave. Walking into the elevator, Mrs. Pei saw that Mrs. Xiao didn't seem so happy. After thinking about it carefully, she knew why, so she comforted her: "This is actually the mentality of marrying a daughter. I can only say that Yaoyao and Jingqiao are not the same." Suitable. If two inappropriate people get married reluctantly, wouldn't it be a disaster? Although Yaoyao is no longer your daughter-in-law, she has become your daughter. How can a daughter-in-law be compared with a daughter? She is still a daughter. More considerate."
"Oh, that's right." Mrs. Xiao was a little worried and asked, "How is your private life? Yaoyao is too young. Although the older one can be caring, I always feel that Yaoyao will be on the weak side. "
Older men are mature, stable and successful in their careers, but they also represent shrewdness and deep thinking.
Men who are too young are sometimes unreliable. In this circle, the private lives of those who are similar to Yaoyao's age are not ordinary, and each of them has not yet been determined.
Mrs. Pei held her hand and smiled: "You still can't trust me? I watched Pei Chi grow up. He lost his parents at a young age and his temper is precocious compared to his peers. Don't worry. I won't push Ruan Wan and your daughter into the fire pit just to promote my nephew. Pei Chi dated a girlfriend three years ago. I have also seen that the two people broke up due to personality differences, and there was always a gap between them and all the messy things. He won't do it either. Anyway, don't worry."
Seeing that Mrs. Xiao was still frowning, Mrs. Pei approached her again and whispered: "As for being older, it's not a problem for this older man. I just like the younger ones. Maybe Yaoyao will control Pei Chi to death in the end. Let me tell you something you don’t want to hear. This Yaoyao is really beautiful. What man wouldn’t like it? I think Yaoyao will. She doesn't seem to be a person without opinions, she understands in her heart. "
The reason why she can cancel the engagement with the Xiao family so decisively means that Mrs. Xiao has a filter and thinks that Sang Yao is very simple and innocent. At least she knows what she wants. What do you want? How many people in this circle can let go of the power and aura of the Xiao family.
Only Pei Chi and Sang Yao were left in the box. Although Sang Yao was not good at socializing, he was not shy when facing strangers. Relatively speaking, Pei Chi was a little reluctant to let go.
Fortunately, Pei Chi's age and experience were at hand, so he quickly relaxed. He was a gentle person with a bit of humor, and he always took care of Sang Yao's emotions. After the meal, even Sang Yao couldn't help but give this blind date a good review.
Whether it is an ordinary person or a rich second generation, the process of blind date is the same. If there is drama, they will exchange contact information, and the man will take the initiative to send the woman home. Sang Yao is sitting in the passenger seat, still cheering up and talking to Pei Chi. While chatting, her cell phone rang. She took it out of her bag and saw that it was an overseas number. She guessed it was Xiao Chengxiu, so she quickly picked it up. When Pei Chi saw that she had a call coming in, he politely stopped talking. .
"Hello?"
"It's me."
Sang Yao was a little happy, with a surprised smile on her face, "Brother, I heard that you are on a business trip abroad now."
"Well, I just saw the text message you sent. If you have anything to do in the future, You can call me directly." Xiao Chengxiu also just got up, his voice was a little lazy.
Sang Yao just thought it was a polite comment, "Okay."
"You said you had something to tell me. What was it?" Xiao Chengxiu asked.
Now that there was an outsider around and he was her blind date, it was definitely inconvenient to explain Xiao Jingqiao's affairs to Xiao Chengxiu. Sang Yao didn't want to make Pei Chi feel embarrassed, so she said, "Brother, if it's convenient for you, I'll add you on WeChat "Okay."
Xiao Chengxiu said, "My WeChat ID is my mobile phone number."
"Okay, I'll add it when I get back in the evening. Please remember to pass it." Sang Yao thought for a while and said, "Brother, be careful when traveling abroad. Pay attention to your health and eat regularly. Don't forget to eat."
"Yes, I know." Xiao Chengxiu paused and asked her, "I will be back next week. Do you need me to bring you anything?
" She didn't have the nerve to ask Xiao Chengxiu for a gift. Just when she was about to decline, it suddenly occurred to her that her relationship with the boss was different now. They were both brother and sister in the future. Asking for gifts from a younger sister was also a sign of closeness to her older brother.
What else are my sister and brother embarrassed about?
"I want a woolen scarf." After all, Sang Yao was not so shameless, and quickly added, "Brother, if it's inconvenient, forget it."
Scarf?
"Okay. What else do you want?"
"No, no, no, I have everything. Brother, I don't know what time it is over there now, so I won't delay you. We can chat after adding WeChat."
"Yeah . ."
After hanging up the phone, Sang Yao breathed a sigh of relief. From what Xiao Chengxiu said and his tone, she could tell that maybe he was unhappy that day, but now he has forgotten the villain. Her explanation is of course the best, it is the icing on the cake. Without explanation, it doesn't seem to matter. The boss is the boss, his mind is different from others, it is very open-minded.
Just when the stone in Sang Yao's heart fell and her mood improved, she heard Pei Chi ask with a smile: "Is the person who called you Lao Xiao?"
Lao Xiao?
Sang Yao suddenly remembered that Mrs. Xiao had said that Xiao Chengxiu and Pei Chi were friends.
"Yes." Sang Yao nodded.
Pei Chi drove the car with a relaxed expression, "Lao Xiao is on a business trip abroad. He is a workaholic. We don't like to call him when we have gatherings now. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Firstly, I can't call him; secondly, Seeing that someone who is several times better than him is working so hard and can't keep up, how can he not be anxious?" Pei Chi added, "Speaking of which, don't your family arrange a blind date for him or urge him to find a girl? Friends?"
Pei Chi said "your family" and already regarded Sang Yao as a member of the Xiao family, which made Sang Yao very comfortable.
"I don't know about this." Sang Yao felt that she had to be a sensible person. Although Pei Chi and Xiao Chengxiu were friends, she couldn't tell the world about Xiao Chengxiu's personal affairs. "My eldest brother is very busy at work and rarely comes back." "Home."
Pei Chi nodded, "He is really busy, busy at school and at work. We are all very curious about whether he will get married in the end."
In fact, Pei Chi is not a gossip. After all, he is thirty years old, and he really doesn't care whether others are in love or married, but he wants to get closer to Sang Yao. The other party is a little girl, and it seems that it is inappropriate to talk about this kind of topic when they are not familiar with her. appropriate.
Sang Yao felt that she didn't know Pei Chi very well, so it was a bit strange to discuss Xiao Chengxiu's affairs with such a relationship.
She was not too keen on this topic and had no intention of gossiping about Xiao Chengxiu with Pei Chi to get closer.
Pei Chi saw that Sang Yao was not interested in this topic, and unexpectedly felt some unexplainable appreciation. You must know that he and Lao Xiao have been friends for 20 or 30 years, and they are old acquaintances. However, Sang Yao is still very cautious about talking to him about Xiao Chengxiu, and even actively avoids it. This means that she has a very sense of propriety. people. It's just that he hasn't been in love for a long time, and he hasn't been in contact with such a young girl for a long time. He really didn't know how to get close to her for a while. After sending Sang Yao back to Xiao's house, Pei Chi took out his cell phone and prepared to Call Xiao Chengxiu.
He didn't have any other intentions. The entire circle knew about the breakup of Sang Yao's engagement with Xiao Jingqiao. Now the elders in the family and Mrs. Xiao had arranged for him to go on a blind date with Sang Yao. He admitted that he was very vulgar. Seeing Sang Yao's face It was a bit emotional. After this brief contact, he found that the other party had not touched his point of view yet, so of course he wanted to get along well with him. With this mentality, he wanted to find out what was going on between Sang Yao and Xiao Jingqiao.
On the surface, they say that they spend less time together, that they don't get along, and that they have decided to return to the relationship of friends and relatives from lovers. This kind of rhetoric is more official than the one used when breaking up in the South Korean entertainment industry. In private, you only need to use your brain. , you know that things are definitely not that simple. After all, Sang Yao and Xiao Jingqiao are childhood sweethearts who have known each other for more than 20 years. Why do they just say that they don't get along at this juncture?
Just as he was about to dial the phone, Pei Chi thought for a moment, but still didn't make the call.
Forget it, asking Lao Xiao about his younger brother was quite embarrassing. He had better not assume his identity too quickly. He only had dinner with Sang Yao, so he shouldn't be too pretentious and think he was hers. As a quasi-boyfriend, it's better to wait until the relationship gets closer and take the initiative to ask Sang Yao. If he wants to understand her and understand the whole story, it's better to hear it from her mouth. This also represents his full sincerity.
***
The next thing went much smoother. Pei Chi felt that Sang Yao was good and very sincere. He was very conscious and knew that he was older than Sang Yao. This man should take the initiative and not be too mother-in-law. As for Sang Yao, she believed in Mrs. Xiao's vision. After contacting her, she did find that Pei Chi's personal conditions and qualities were excellent. It's quite sad to say that after such a fool as Xiao Jingqiao, this man was a little bit If it were normal, she would feel good about it. Fortunately, the circle she is in now and the people she comes into contact with are not ordinary in terms of personal conditions. Otherwise, if it were before time travel, she would really be ruined and her views on mate selection would be subverted.
Pei Chi and Sang Yao are both very decent people, and they don't need their parents to deal with them. After going back and forth, in just one week, they had two dinners together, went to see a movie together, and chatted on WeChat. Frequently, in this fast-paced era, as long as two men and women are willing to get acquainted, it can only take a matter of minutes.
The day before the move, Pei Chi volunteered and said he would come to help her move the next day.
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Xiao came to Sang Yao's room with a cup of hot milk. Seeing that Sang Yao was clearing the dressing table, she walked over, handed the cup to her hand, and said with a warm smile: "I It seems that Pei Chi is doing well. How do you two get along?"
Sang Yao sat on the dressing table with a cup in her hand, lowered her head and smiled, "It's not bad."
Before Mrs. Xiao could be happy, Sang Yao became serious again. She told the truth, "But I don't have that feeling for him."
She felt that it was difficult for her to have feelings of love for anyone.
It seemed that she and Pei Chi were having a heated fight during this period, but only she knew what she was thinking.
It's like completing a task. Why should I have dinner and watch a movie with Pei Chi? Because he is good. Why should I get in touch with him? Because he has good conditions in all aspects and is suitable for being both a boyfriend and a husband.
To be fair, many couples in this world are not married because of love, but because of suitability.
Of course, she was not naive enough to pursue love. Even if Mrs. Xiao asked her, she wanted to answer truthfully.
Mrs. Xiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Feelings can be cultivated slowly. Love at first sight is rare in this world. Which couple doesn't fall in love with each other over time? You don't need to feel pressure. After all, you are still young and can do it." Take your time, if you really feel it's not appropriate, that's okay. I just want to make you happy, so I thought of introducing you to a friend. It's not easy for you, a little girl in your early twenties, to accompany me after work every day. Old lady?"
"You are not an old lady." Sang Yao took Mrs. Xiao's arm and said coquettishly, "When I went shopping with you, others thought we were sisters."
"Hey, Yaoyao, I'm sorry. Mrs. Xiao said again after she had laughed enough.
Sang Yao seemed not to understand and quickly changed the topic.
In the past, she needed Mrs. Xiao and even Xiao Chengxiu to feel guilty, but now, comparing their feelings, this family was good enough to her, and they did not feel sorry for her. Guilt is an emotion that is uncomfortable for anyone. She didn't want to make Mrs. Xiao sad. It was also because of this that she tried to contact Pei Chi, saying that she had tried her best to get over her last relationship. .
Pei Chi drove here early the next morning. The moving of rich people is different from the moving of ordinary people. For ordinary people, moving once is really tiring physically and mentally. Just packing up the house and luggage is tiring enough. Rich people It was different. When they finished their lunch slowly and walked outside, the movers had finished everything.
Although Pei Chi didn't have to do anything, not even give instructions, he just stood here and stayed. Mrs. Xiao was very satisfied with him in her heart. She felt that he was a warm-hearted child and cared enough for Yaoyao. It seemed that This time she chose the right person for Yaoyao.
Pei Chi brought a housewarming gift, which was a bottle of red wine and some potted succulents. The gifts were not expensive. Sang Yao looked at the pots of succulents and liked them very much.
Mrs. Xiao really hoped that Pei Chi and Sang Yao could get along well. She recognized Pei Chi's character very much. So, after accompanying Sang Yao to the flat-floor apartment, she found an excuse and left first, wanting to give some advice to others. These two people have more time and space together.
Winter evening comes very early, and around six o'clock it is already dark.
Just as Mrs. Xiao was about to start dinner, Xiao Chengxiu came back.
Mrs. Xiao was very surprised. While asking her aunt to add dishes and chopsticks, she said to Xiao Chengxiu: "Didn't you say you won't come back until next week?
" Look, it seems that he is looking for someone. Later, when he saw that his own mother did not answer his questions as expected, he pretended to ask casually: "Where is Sang Yao?"
Mrs. Xiao sighed, "She said it is not suitable to live at home. , has moved out, and now lives in the same building as you, in the building next to you."
"Have you moved there?" Xiao Chengxiu asked.
"Well, we just moved today."
Xiao Chengxiu said to his aunt, "No need to prepare my dishes, I still have something to do."
After that, he said to Mrs. Xiao: "Mom, I still have something to do in my company. I'll leave now. I'll be back with you tomorrow." You eat."
"Oh, okay, why are you so busy and you don't have dinner? You have to pay attention to your health.
"
After Xiao Chengxiu left, Mrs. Xiao sat at the dining table and started eating. A piece of ribs, thinking of something, he slapped his forehead, "Hey! I'm so old and forgetful, I forgot to tell Cheng Xiu!"
Yaoyao should be with Pei Chi at this moment, right?
It didn't matter, her son was going to the company to do some work at the moment, and she would have time to tell him when he came back tomorrow evening.
It just so happens that he is familiar with Pei Chi, so maybe he can be a check.
The author has something to say: I saw in the comments that some cute readers are also facing the problem of hair loss
. If the hair loss is serious, it is recommended to go to the hospital. I am deficient in calcium, iron, and lack of qi and blood... The doctor prescribed nourishing blood. Hair growth medicine, and multivitamins... Of course, I also use it with anti-hair loss essence (I use the anti-hair loss ampoule essence from Kérastase). The most important thing I think is that I still need to pay attention to rest and not stay up late~
In addition, some readers said that there was too little interaction between the male and female protagonists. I was indeed a little constrained when writing it (I thought it was a bit weird that the heroine and the two developed a relationship without breaking off the engagement). From now on, I will officially enter the Jiangjiang stuffing. I have a lot of emotions. To tell you the truth, when I was sorting out the outline and details, I really felt like an old mother is very happy ~ There
Chapter 64 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 63Next chapter: Chapter 65 Mrs. Xiao's intention to create opportunities for them to be alone was so obvious that Sang Yao saw it. Even though she had done nothing today and was just instructing others on how to place things, she still felt tired and wanted to She went to take a bath and have a good rest, but she still managed to cheer up and took the initiative to ask Pei Chi what he wanted to eat at night. She came to treat him as a thank you for his housewarming gift and today's help.
Pei Chi thought for a moment, looked at the kitchen in the flat-floor apartment, and said with interest, "Why don't we go to the supermarket to buy food and come back to cook. It's been a long time since we had home-cooked food."
Hello? ?
? ? ?
Sang Yao thought she had heard wrong. In her impression, after these few contacts, Pei Chi was not the kind of person who didn't understand sense of propriety. It was not that she couldn't cook, but they had only known each other for a long time, and he was... Has he already asked her to wash his hands and make soup for him? You know, although she was a little poor girl before time travel, after all, with her appearance here, there is usually no shortage of attentive people. So far, she has not met any man who asked her to cook.
Pei Chi saw Sang Yao's troubled expression and thought she didn't know how to cook, so he added, "I mean, I'll cook it for you."
For a girl like Sang Yao, she has never been in the food industry. Pei Chi also believes in the kitchen.
"Can you cook?" Sang Yao looked at Pei Chi suspiciously, her tone deeply questioning.
Although Pei Chi is not a top second-generation rich man like Xiao Chengxiu and Xiao Jingqiao, he can definitely rank high in this circle. How can such a young master know how to cook? Sang Yao felt that her current expression might be like the emperor in The Legend of Zhen Huan: I don’t know how many surprises you have.
Even in the world of ordinary people, it is not uncommon for this man to cook, but it is still considered a bonus, let alone one from a wealthy family.
Pei Chi nodded matter-of-factly, "I used to study abroad, and sometimes I didn't want to eat out, so I did some research on my own. Anyway, it's just an ordinary home-cooked meal. I told you in advance, don't have too much expectations for me. The expectation. "
Okay!
Since he was so eager to give it a try, she would make it happen for him.
But it can be seen that Pei Chi still has a strong interest in her. For a busy man like him, he now takes time to chat with her almost every day, and even invites her to dinner and movies. Now he even washes his hands and makes soup. ...
The housing prices in this community are prohibitive. Before Sang Yao traveled through time, it was a bit difficult to buy or rent the houses here.
The location is good, the scenery is good, and there is a large supermarket not far away. Sang Yao and Pei Chi are not hard-working people who can go to the vegetable market for fresh ingredients, so they adopted the principle of proximity and went to the nearby Wal-Mart. Pei Chi pushed the shopping cart consciously. Sang Yao felt that he would be cooking later, so she couldn't stay out of it. After discussing the recipe with Pei Chi, she also helped to select the ingredients. Pei Chi asked someone to help him cook. After buying seabass and pushing the shopping cart to find Sang Yao, she was carefully selecting bell peppers in a corner of the vegetable section.
She seems to be out of tune with the atmosphere of human fireworks that fills this supermarket.
I always felt that someone like her would not do these things, but seeing her comparing two bell peppers with such a serious expression made Pei Chi a little stunned.
In fact, even he didn't know how he could be so patient with Sang Yao.
He admitted that he was a member of the Appearance Association, but he had seen many beautiful women over the years. What was very strange was that he wanted to pay attention to this girl who was seven or eight years younger than him.
Maybe it's because she's always been calm, maybe it's because of her clear eyes when we first met.
Pei Chi is not a person who likes to be vigorous and vigorous, nor does he yearn for it. At his age, people like him who are used to working hard in the mall actually want a sense of stability and peace. He likes Sang Yao, who looks small, has an indifferent expression, and seems not very interested in anything, but her eyes are gentle and clear. A few days ago, the office secretary brought a bouquet of lilies and placed them in the conference room. When he saw the lilies, the first person he thought of was Sang Yao.
He felt that Sang Yao was like a lily, neither fighting nor grabbing, elegant, gentle and peaceful.
Although there were only two people eating, there still had to be a sense of ceremony. Pei Chi and Sang Yao planned to make a total of four dishes. After buying the dishes, Pei Chi helped Sang Yao pick yogurt and fruits, and finally settled the bill. At that time, after filling a big bag full and walking out of the supermarket, Pei Chi said casually: "If you want to purchase anything in the future, you can always come to me."
Sang Yao just smiled, and Mrs. Xiao hired an aunt for her to take charge. All her daily life, such as going to the supermarket to buy groceries in person, obviously does not fall on her, but Pei Chi's subtle way of showing courtesy made her feel very comfortable and not offensive at all. This makes Sang Yao doubt from the bottom of her heart whether Pei Chi is, as Mrs. Xiao said, too busy at work and has never been in love. The last relationship was three years ago...
Rather than doubting that Pei Chi is a veteran, now She is "older" and wants to find an "honest person" to live with. Sang Yao prefers that the person is really gentle and considerate, so that at least it won't drive her crazy. After all, no one wants to be a "takeover", and no one wants to Being regarded as a "takeover" by others.
When they returned to the apartment, Pei Chi and Sang Yao had a tacit understanding of each other. Sang Yao helped wash the vegetables. When she was about to cut the vegetables, Pei Chi stopped her and said, "You'd better not touch the knife. I'm nervous just looking at it. I'll do it. If you want to do something, just wash the fruits. I'll show you my hand later and make you some fruit. I also bought
some yogurt." "Okay," Sang Yao had to admit. She still likes this, and it’s not for anything else. These rich, handsome people who she couldn’t reach before time travel now enter the kitchen for her. This gives her a sense of accomplishment and allows her to get the most. When she saw that the other party wanted to "live a good life" with her, she was really simple and direct.
Pei Chi put on an apron, holding a spatula and frying vegetables in a very decent manner. He turned his head and looked at Sang Yao washing apples and grapes beside him, and the corners of his lips curled up.
He actually likes the smell of fireworks.
Winter itself is cold and lonely, but the kitchen is steaming and fragrant. The husband and wife work together to cook a dinner, eating the most ordinary home-cooked food, chatting about the interesting things they encountered today or their worries. Well, this should be the atmosphere that a home should have, right?
For a moment, Pei Chi wanted to tell Sang Yao that they should give it a try.
The words came to her lips and she swallowed them back. She was not him, her family was happy, and she was still so young. That kind of warm family life is actually very ordinary, maybe she doesn't yearn for it now.
Better take your time. Pei Chi looked at the beef stew with carrots in the pot and thought, these were all raw at the beginning, weren't they also slowly stewed over low heat?
After three dishes and one soup were finished, Pei Chi took them to the dining table. Sang Yao went to the bathroom. He felt that something was missing. In order to show the girl that although he was already thirty, he still pursued romance in his heart, he decisively decided to take it today. The red wine arrived, and when I was about to pour it, I heard the doorbell ringing at the door.
Pei Chi wondered, could it be Mrs. Xiao?
But Sang Yao had just moved here today, and he might be a neighbor. Pei Chi put down the red wine bottle and didn't have time to take off his apron. Of course, he did it on purpose. After all, it was still not safe for a girl to live alone. Whether it was a neighbor or a property owner, he Wearing an apron also hints to the other party about his relationship with Sang Yao. In this way, many potential problems are solved.
Pei Chi walked to the door and saw through the screen that the person standing outside turned out to be Xiao Chengxiu.
Why did Lao Xiao come here at this time? Wasn't he on a business trip? This doubt flashed through Pei Chi's mind, but he quickly realized that although the Xiao family has not announced it to the outside world, Lao Xiao and Sang Yao are indeed brother and sister now, not to mention that Lao Xiao also lives here, so come and pay a visit. Sister, this is completely normal.
With this idea in mind, Pei Chi opened the door with a smile on his face, "Old Xiao, what kind of wind brought you here."
Xiao Chengxiu was holding several paper bags in his hand. He didn't know what style and color Sang Yao liked. Basically, he bought all the scarves he thought looked good. He thought he would see Sang Yao when the door opened, but he never expected that he would see someone who shouldn't be here in the first place.
Rao, who was as calm and calm as Xiao Chengxiu, was a little surprised at this moment, "Why are you here?"
Pei Chi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yao Yao is moving today, I'm here to help. I was cooking just now, come in. "
Yao Yao? "
This was probably the first time in the past thirty years that Xiao Chengxiu had fallen into confusion.
He clearly knew every word of what Pei Chi said, but how come they were put together so that he couldn't understand them?
Just when Xiao Chengxiu was doubting, Sang Yao came out of the bathroom and tied her hair into a ponytail. Seeing Pei Chi standing at the door, she walked over out of curiosity. She stood next to Pei Chi and saw that the person outside the door was Xiao Chengxiu. , very surprised and pleasantly surprised: "Brother, why are you back? Did you come back early?"
Pei Chi was wearing slippers and an apron, and Sang Yao was standing next to him. Outside the door, he seemed to be in two distinct worlds.
Xiao Chengxiu had always been smart, but when he came to his senses, his expression was gloomy and unclear. He clenched the paper bag tightly, feeling for the first time that this world was simply ridiculous.
The author has something to say: Copywriting for the next chapter~
I saw a comment that made me very confused, saying that it is even weirder for the male protagonist to be online now because the female protagonist is in love...
The female protagonist is not in love! ! ! This is just a normal contact on a blind date. She is single or not. She has either gone on a few blind dates and had dinner or is in a relationship! ! !
Chapter 65 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 64Next chapter: Chapter 66 Sang Yao felt guilty when she saw Xiao Chengxiu's expression of incomprehensible joy and anger. After all, more than half a month ago, she was his future sister-in-law, and now she was dating other men and even got hit by him. Upright. Although she and Pei Chi were arranged by Mrs. Xiao, and even though their relationship was at best just friends, she didn't know why she felt guilty. Thinking about it carefully, it was probably because she used to play the infatuated dog-licking character in Xiao Chengxiu. It’s over!
Pei Chi was more familiar with Xiao Chengxiu and pulled him in directly, "You are really in a hurry. This dish has just been prepared. Lao Xiao, let me tell you, you are in luck today. I cooked it myself."
Xiao Chengxiu pushed him away without leaving a trace, but followed him in.
On the log dining table, there are three dishes and one soup, namely stewed beef brisket with carrots, steamed sea bass, stir-fried vegetables and winter melon clam soup. It is simple but full of the warmth of home.
Sang Yao still had a strong desire to survive, so she took the initiative to sit on the seat next to Xiao Chengxiu.
Pei Chi felt that he and Lao Xiao were already so familiar, not to mention the true nature of a man, who of course put more emphasis on sex than friends, so he took care of Sang Yao throughout the whole process, picking up vegetables for her and reminding her to be careful of fish bones.
He knew what kind of relationship Sang Yao had with Xiao Jingqiao before, and he also guessed that Lao Xiao might have a grudge, but it didn't matter. Men, just go have a drink and talk about it after dinner. I believe Lao Xiao is not that stingy.
Sang Yao was really surprised to see Xiao Chengxiu coming, so she asked: "Brother, didn't you say you won't come back until next week? Are you finished with the things over there?"
Xiao Chengxiu was not in the mood to eat at all. When he heard her say this , and just nodded lightly.
Although she was not afraid of slanting shadows, Sang Yao was still a little worried. After all, she had just terminated her engagement with Xiao Jingqiao, and then came into contact with Pei Chi. If she was someone with divergent thinking and a bigger brain, she might be in trouble. I thought she was cheating on me too.
Sang Yao couldn't figure out what Xiao Chengxiu was thinking. Seeing that he had no intention of chatting, she wisely stopped looking for topics.
After dinner, Pei Chi said he wanted to go out for a drink with Xiao Chengxiu. The two went out together. Pei Chi said to Xiao Chengxiu, "Old Xiao, wait for me. I'll go have a word with Yaoyao."
Xiao Chengxiu's face was expressionless . Expression, he turned sideways and saw himself in the mirror wall of the elevator.
He originally thought it was ridiculous for her to call him brother, but he didn't expect that something even more ridiculous was waiting for him.
Pei Chi turned around before Sang Yao closed the door and smiled at her: "Don't touch the bowl and chopsticks. I'll let the hourly worker clean it up."
Sang Yao shook his head. Today was an exception because she She had to move, so she let him in, and let him cook this dinner, but her relationship with him was, at best, just a blind date during the observation period. In fact, they were not even friends, but just parents. They go around in the middle, and each other thinks that the conditions are suitable. It's just a short period of getting along under this premise. This kind of relationship is very fragile. Maybe tomorrow he or she will feel that the other person is not suitable and they can never contact each other again.
"I have an aunt here, so I don't need to trouble you." Sang Yao thought for a while and said politely, "I really didn't treat you well today. I obviously wanted to treat you to dinner, but I asked you to cook instead. Next time Don't mind if I treat you to a meal again when I get the chance."
Pei Chi smiled and said, "You are too unreasonable. It's just a simple meal. You are tired from the day. Go to bed early. We will meet again tomorrow. Contact us."
When he was about to leave, Sang Yao stopped him again and said hesitantly: "Well, if you drink, don't drink too much. Take it easy. Brother, he just got off the plane and didn't have much dinner. I'm afraid he'll feel uncomfortable again tomorrow when he's drunk."
After all, Xiao Chengxiu was hospitalized for stomach bleeding not long ago. Drinking can be avoided if possible, but he should drink less if he can't avoid it, otherwise he will still be the one who suffers.
Pei Chi made an OK gesture to show that he understood, "You two have a pretty good relationship. Don't worry. I'm with Lao Xiao. Drinking is second, talking about things is the main thing."
"Yes."
***
Pei Chi and Xiao Chengxiu went to a nearby bar. They sat on high stools and listened to the singer playing and singing. It was very comfortable.
"Old Xiao, I told you before, I want to have a family." Pei Chi picked up the wine glass and sipped it lazily, "I used to feel that I was still young and had not worked hard to achieve this career. I have never met the right person, but relationships and fate really depend on timing. If the person is right, but the time is not right, we still have to break up. In the past two years, the time has been right and the conditions have been met. I didn't meet the right person. You think it's a shame or not? This time my aunt also arranged a blind date for me without telling me. As soon as I went there and saw the attitude, I knew I had been fooled. I was about to find an excuse to escape. Your mother and Yaoyao came in."
Xiao Chengxiu didn't say anything. He seemed to be immersed in his own world, drinking in silence.
Pei Chi was used to him like this, and added: "After several contacts, although there is a difference in age, I feel that I am quite young, so it is not a problem to pretend to be someone of the same age. In short, I feel that I am I met the right person at the right time."
After rambling on for a while, it was not clear from his expression whether Xiao Chengxiu was happy or unhappy. He had always been expressionless, but in fact he had endured it to the extreme.
"You go back first." Xiao Chengxiu said, "I want to be alone."
Pei Chi couldn't understand. Logically speaking, this matter had nothing to do with Lao Xiao. I had never seen him treat his younger brother very well before. Shangxin was very concerned. The eviction order had been issued. He was not an ignorant person. When he picked up the car keys and was about to leave, he said to Xiao Chengxiu solemnly: "I know Jingqiao is your brother, but he You and Yaoyao have been separated. I heard your mother say that she has accepted Yaoyao as her daughter. In this way, she is also your sister..."
Before Pei Chi could finish speaking, he heard Xiao Chengxiu say in a cold tone. : "First, I only have one sister, Yayin."
"Second," Xiao Chengxiu glanced at Pei Chi, "Are you familiar with her?"
Pei Chi was speechless, "I think you are in a bad mood today, okay? Let’s talk again in two days.”
The two broke up unhappy. Pei Chi felt that Xiao Chengxiu was stupid at work. Although he didn't ask specifically, he still heard some things. There is also a rumor in the circle now that Sang Yao and Xiao Jingqiao broke up because of a woman. He fell in love with another woman and made trouble. It was ugly. No matter how you look at it, it is Xiao Jingqiao who is wrong. Does it mean that just because they are brothers, it doesn't matter whether he is right or wrong?
Sang Yao was out of trouble. She was a girl in her early twenties. How could she be expected to pay for other people's mistakes and not fall in love or get married in order to save the face of the Xiao family? This is too overbearing.
What Xiao Chengxiu is showing now makes Pei Chi very dissatisfied. Even if he is not Sang Yao's blind date, he is just a passerby and can't stand it.
After Pei Chi left, Xiao Chengxiu drank a lot. When he walked out of the bar, he was blown away by the cold wind and regained his clarity. He called for a driver.
The driver was a middle-aged man in his forties. Seeing that Xiao Chengxiu had drunk too much, he helped him get into the car, fastened his seat belt, and praised: "Good car."
Xiao Chengxiu sat in the back seat and said nothing. Opening the car window, the night in Beijing was undoubtedly freezing to the core, and the wind on my face was like a dull knife cutting flesh, causing pain.
The driver likes to chat with people. Even if Xiao Chengxiu doesn't agree with him from beginning to end, he can still talk with gusto.
In the past, Xiao Chengxiu hated people who were too noisy. Today, he thought it was good to have someone talking to himself like this, making him seem less quiet. Now he hates environments that are too quiet even more.
When he finally returned to his room, he was half sober. Even though he had been drinking to the point of stomach bleeding, he actually had a pretty good drinking capacity. It's ten o'clock in the evening, and he also has a lot of work. In his plan, after giving the gift to Sang Yao, he will come back and work overtime, but now he can't calm down at all, and he doesn't know why in the end. Psychologically, he went to the study, opened the wine cabinet, took a bottle of wine, and drank alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Alcohol cannot solve any problems.
He knows many things very well.
Just like now, just like this moment, why would he drink when he comes back.
Xiao Chengxiu smelled of alcohol and was still somewhat conscious, but his steps were a little unsteady as he left the house. He went downstairs and walked on the road to the community. He also met the patrolling security guard. The security guard knew him and asked him if he wanted to help. He didn't. After paying attention, he went directly to the building where Sang Yao was located and walked into the elevator. He watched the numbers on the stairs rising from the first floor to the first floor -
he was not a timid person. When he took over the company, he also acted in the same way. If one person insists on reform, how much pressure he withstood at the beginning will not be understood at all unless it is the person involved. In fact, the pressure back then was much less than it is now. So, what is he afraid of? He was just following Meng Zheng's words, not afraid of anything but even her retreating away.
Sang Yao had just finished taking a shower and was blow-drying her hair. She had been living in Xiao's house from time to time. From now on, she would probably have to live alone. She was still thinking about whether to get a dog or not. Let your aunt live at home, otherwise when you get home from work, you will be alone in such a big house...it will still be a bit lonely.
Hey, I don’t know what Pei Chi and Xiao Chengxiu are talking about. I don’t know what Xiao Chengxiu thinks of her...
How should I explain to him? Could it be that I don’t want to disappoint Mrs. Xiao? Wow, this kind of statement would be a scapegoat. Suspected of being a bitch, she still looks like a bitch.
Before my hair was dry, I heard the doorbell ringing at the door.
At first she thought she was hallucinating, so she turned off the hair dryer and listened for a while to make sure that someone was ringing the doorbell. Then she carefully walked out of the bedroom and came to the entrance to the living room. It was already this hour. Who could it be? If Unless she was sure that she lived in a wealthy area, she wouldn't have the guts to look at the display.
When she saw that the person at the door was Xiao Chengxiu, she breathed a sigh of relief, then became nervous again. What was he doing at this point? Are you here to ask questions?
Sang Yao opened the door and smelled the smell of alcohol.
This must be how much wine you drank.
"Brother, what's the matter?" Sang Yao asked cautiously, her mind spinning rapidly. She was thinking about how she should answer when Xiao Chengxiu questioned her so that she could remove herself in a fresh and refined manner.
Xiao Chengxiu did not enter the house, but leaned against the door. He was very tall, and she was wearing slippers at the moment. He lowered his eyes to look at her, his eyes a little blurry.
"Brother?" Seeing that he remained silent, Sang Yao tentatively called him again, thinking, could he be drunk?
"I'm not drunk." Xiao Chengxiu suddenly said as if he could hear her thoughts.
He stared at her, and Sang Yao subconsciously took a step back. Xiao Chengxiu looked so weird that she had the urge to run away.
After being quiet for nearly a minute or two, Xiao Chengxiu said in a low voice: "Xiao Jingqiao, Pei Chi, what do you like about these two people? I can give you what he can give you, and I can give you what he can't. So, do you want to consider me?”
The author has something to say: I have read everyone’s comments, including comments and complaints.
Long-winded writing and slow progress are indeed shortcomings of writing in recent years, and I have found a way to correct them for the time being. In fact, I am not very satisfied with the writing of this article, but I have had a certain degree of obsessive-compulsive disorder in the past few years. Even if I am not satisfied, I will continue to write = =
Of course, I will try my best to write the rest well, and the plot will be better Be more compact (don’t worry, the emotional development will not be skipped).
