Deluge - Chapter 25

[Chapter 25]

Xu Jiren is a serious entrepreneur and does not need to use his children to get married to gain benefits, but like ordinary families, they also tend to be well-matched in marriage. The woman’s family can be slightly worse than the Xu family, but Xu Juan’s wife must be Bai Fumei who grew up in a superior environment, with vision and atmosphere, otherwise she will not be able to make it to the top.

——This is what He Xiangzi said to Xu Juan on the phone today.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Juan almost rolled his eyes. He wanted to retort: “According to your standards, my father was a poor and white Phoenix man back then, is he not worthy of you?”

But he only dared to think, not to say.

He Xiangzi counted Yue Xuelin’s goodness again. He was beautiful, sensible, well-behaved and cute, and his education was not bad. He was admitted to a certain famous school by himself, not a rich second-generation who spent money to make a living.

Xu Juan had a headache, and he said on the spot, “Pei Yu also meets these standards. Pei Yu is prettier, cuter and more educated!”

He Xiangzi was stunned: “Who is Pei Yu?

” My boyfriend.”

He Xiangzi: “…” The

ending can be imagined, Xu Juan was scolded for a scolding, his mother angrily threw the sentence “You wait for me” and hung up the phone.

Xu Juan did not expect that he would see Yue Xuelin tonight before he could wait.

In the splendid box, a row of waiters filed in and served the dishes one after another.

At a round table, Yue Xuelin sat next to Guo Shao, Xu Juan and Pei Yu sat opposite, and Hou Shijie and several others sat in the middle.

It was a pretty bad dinner, and Pei Yu was in a bad mood.

Xu Juan’s original plan was to bring him into contact with his social circle a little, so that he could have a bottom line, and the main purpose was to make him happy.

But Xu Juan did not expect that such a situation would develop, and now the eyes of people all over the table are “eat melon”.

Obviously, everyone here knows about Xu Juan and Yue Xuelin, and everyone is in the circle, and they all understand the “rules”. Who doesn’t know that Mr. Xu’s changing objects is like changing clothes?

Although everyone kept their dignity, no one said it clearly, and would not deliberately stare at them, but the subtle atmosphere in the box made Pei Yu feel like he was on a needle.

He vaguely felt that there was a tacit understanding among the group of people, and he was the only one left in the dark.

“Xu Juan.” Pei Yu couldn’t swallow, and took Xu Juan’s hand under the table.

Xu Juan helped him with the dishes: “What’s wrong?”

“I’m full.” Pei Yu said, “I want to go back early.”

“…”

Their conversation was so low that only he could hear it. Xu Juan paused: “Okay, then let’s go.”

He put down his chopsticks, wiped the corners of his lips with a tissue, and Guo Shao and Yue Xuelin immediately looked over.

Xu Juan said: “I’m sorry, I’m in a hurry, so I won’t be with you.”

His expression was cold, and he didn’t even bother to find a decent excuse.

Guo Shao could actually understand him, but he was a little embarrassed to be caught in the middle. He was hesitating whether to speak to keep him again, Xu Juan got up and left the table, saying goodbye to everyone present: “I’ll invite you for this meal, you all take your time. .”

He smiled politely: “Mr. Pei and I will go first, see

you later.” “Okay, next time I’ll treat you to a drink, Mr. Xu!” Guo Shao waved at the door.

The parking lot of the hotel is on the negative floor. Xu Juan and Pei Yu left the box together and went straight to the elevator.

They got out of the elevator, just entered the parking lot, and hadn’t gone far, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps chasing after them, and a female voice shouted, “Wait a minute!”

Xu Juan turned around, and it turned out that Yue Xuelin was chasing after him.

Yue Xuelin may be chasing too fast, her hair is a little messy, and her breath is slightly panting: “Mr. Xu, can I have a few words with you alone? It takes you two minutes.”

“…”

Xu Juan glanced at Pei Yu, she His gaze also fell on Pei Yu, Pei Yu was silent, but the fingers he and Xu Juan held together couldn’t help but tighten.

Xu Juan hesitated for a while.

He was inclined to solve problems. Anyway, the main contradiction in this matter was his mother. He didn’t need to slap Yue Xuelin and embarrass her too much.

“Wait for me, okay?” Xu Juan handed the car keys to Pei Yu and whispered, “I’ll be right back.”

“…”

He said so, how could Pei Yu refuse?

Xu Juan watched Pei Yu walk into the car, turned and walked towards Yue Xuelin.

Yue Xuelin was wearing high heels today. When they stood together, Xu Juan was still a head taller than her. As Guo Shao said, Yue Xuelin was a little interested in Xu Juan, otherwise, he wouldn’t have rushed to the banquet. They were all Jin Gui’s young masters and young ladies. Who would be ashamed?

They walked some distance, to the back of a load-bearing column in the underground car park.

“What does Miss Yue want to say to me?” Xu Juan said first, “Let’s make it clear at once, so as to avoid future troubles.”

He smiled softly at Yue Xuelin.

Xu Juan’s flower peacock’s nature is imprinted in his bones, with his gestures and gestures, the corners of his brows and eyes are full of unconcealed elegance.

Yue Xuelin stood close to him, and when he stared at him from a close distance, his face turned red with a “swish”, but he was so courageous that he raised his head and looked at him directly.

“I know you don’t want to marry me.” Yue Xuelin said, “but… maybe you can reconsider.”

“What are you thinking about? No need, you should have heard about what kind of person I am, and marrying me is not a good choice, so you should consider it carefully, Miss Yue.”

“I have considered it carefully!

Yue Xuelin clenched her skirt tightly, her fingers turned white: “I know why you don’t want to get married, you haven’t had enough fun, and you don’t want to be bound. But sooner or later you will face this day, unless you are single for the rest of your life-how can your family allow it ? Are you single for the rest of your life?”

“…”

“If I say, you marry me, I will help you deal with your parents, but I won’t care about you, you can do whatever you want, you still have freedom outside, why? Like? Do you think I’m suitable to be your wife?”

Yue Xuelin looked so well-behaved, and when she opened her mouth, she was so shocking, Xu Juan said after a long time, “Why? We don’t seem to know each other, do you like me so much?”

“No, It doesn’t count.” Yue Xuelin’s face turned red again, she lowered her head and chose to tell the truth, “I’m different from you, I can only listen to the arrangements of my family, no matter what, I have to choose a powerful and powerful husband who can help The kind that my family brought help… I’m sorry, I was too direct, but you should understand.”

Xu Juan expressed his understanding.

She added: “This kind of marriage itself is for profit, no matter who I marry, I can hardly guarantee that my husband will be loyal to me. In this case, it is better to choose the one you like. It doesn’t matter if you like me or not, at least you He looks handsome and has a good figure.”

Xu Juan: “…”

Oh my god.

Xu Juan has always claimed to understand women very well, but now he suddenly feels that he doesn’t understand much, what is this? Picture him pleasing to the eye?

Indeed, although he is romantic and has a bad reputation, who is better than the other men in their circle? To put it horribly, all men are not good things, and Pei Yu is one in a thousand.

Then since you can only choose among a group of scumbags, it is better to choose someone who is rich and good-looking, so that you can talk about it in advance, and you can play each other after marriage, so as not to cause bitterness and hatred.

Xu Juan couldn’t help laughing: “You’re cuter than I thought, and you’re not stupid at all.”

Yue Xuelin raised her head after hearing this.

Her words were eloquent, but in fact she was still a little flustered, not as aggressive as she had shown: “Then do you like me?”

“No, I have someone in my heart.” Xu Juan patted her head, as if Literally speaking.

Yue Xuelin’s face was almost familiar, and he couldn’t help but get closer to him: “Is that the one just now?”

Xu Juan did not deny or admit it.

Yue Xuelin asked again: “Then can you accept my proposal? If you don’t object, Aunt He said that she wants to announce the news of our engagement at your birthday party.”

“…”

Xu Juan was silent.

Frankly speaking, he only cares about whether his life is going well or not, and does not care whether the column of the household registration book is “married” or “unmarried”. The reason why he resists so much is because he does not want to shoulder the responsibility of a family.

But Yue Xuelin told him now that she didn’t need him to be responsible, and they each got what they needed.

Xu Juan was a little moved – if getting married can solve the troubles at home, it won’t bring him any other troubles after marriage, why doesn’t he get married?

But he thought of Pei Yu.

——Will Pei Yu be sad?

“I’ll think about it.” Xu Juan gave an unclear answer, and then added WeChat friends with Yue Xuelin before ending the conversation.

When he was walking

back, Xu Juan took a long time to find his car.

He walked over to the co-pilot and knocked on the window, but he was surprised to find that there was no one in the co-pilot and no one in the main driver’s seat.

Xu Juan was stunned for a moment: “Pei Yu?”

The parking lot at night was very dark, and only a few small lights in the distance were dimly lit.

Xu Juan’s eyes looked in through the car window, and Pei Yu was actually sitting in the back seat with his head down, his face very silent.

“Why are you sitting here?” Xu Juan opened the car door and sat beside him.

Before he could sit still, a sudden force grabbed his waist and dragged him over.

“…”

Xu Juan was dizzy for two seconds, and leaned into Pei Yu’s arms in a very awkward posture. Then, the dim vision pressed down. Pei Yu did not kiss him, but buried his face in his neck. , took a deep breath.

“Xu Juan.” Pei Yu finally said, “I’m a little uncomfortable, please let me hug me for a while.”

“…Where is it uncomfortable?”

“I feel uncomfortable.”

Pei Yu’s voice became deep, and suddenly asked: “You What did you talk to her about? You rejected her, right? Did you make it clear, will she find you again in the future?”

“…”

Xu Juan originally wanted to reveal to Pei Yu that he and Yue Xuelin had agreed to marry A few words to test Pei Yu’s acceptance, but now is obviously not the right time to speak.

Xu Juan responded ambiguously.

Pei Yuan hugged him quietly, and his emotions were calmed down.

After a while, Pei Yu said again: “I don’t want to know your friends anymore, I don’t like them.”

“It’s okay.” Xu Juan also hugged him back, “It’s fine if you like me.”

“Then you too Do you like me?”

“Well, I like you very much.” As soon as Xu Juan said that, he immediately received a sweet kiss.

Pei Yu’s mood finally cleared up.
