Deluge - Chapter 26

[Chapter 26]

Since the last time I saw Yue Xuelin, Xu Juan had something hidden in his heart and wanted to discuss it with Pei Yu.

In fact, he knew that Yue Xuelin might be deliberately tricking him, but it didn’t matter. For a shameless person like him, it didn’t matter what the woman thought. No matter how much he has done after marriage, he can stand on the moral high ground.

This is a trick used by scumbags. Do you think they are stupider than you? too naive.

But Xu Juan had a Pei Yu in his heart.

Frankly speaking, if Li Mengzhou was with him now, he would agree to Yue Xuelin on the spot without any hesitation.

What’s the big deal about getting married? The red flag at home does not fall, and the colorful flags flutter outside. It is too simple. Even if he wants to give birth to a child, what does Xu Juan need to pay?

If Yue Xuelin can’t think of it, or thinks that it is better to have children out of family interests, then she is willing to give birth, what hardship will it have for Xu Juan? Men take advantage of sex and he doesn’t care.

It is true that Xu Juan is not only selfish, but also cruel, but this is the truth.

Everyone comes to a fork in life. When making a choice, they should sort out the facts first, and then calculate. How many weights are on the left side of the scale and how many weights are on the right side. Which is more important in the end?

Xu Juan went back and forth, and on the right is: as long as he agrees to get married, the so-called major life event that he has been tortured by his parents will be completely resolved. After passing the village of Yue Xuelin, he might not be able to find a more suitable store.

On the left, there is only one Pei Yu.

——Is Pei Yu important?

If it wasn’t important, Xu Juan didn’t have to think so deeply.

If it was important enough, he would not hesitate. He knew that Pei Yu would be sad, and the best thing to do for Pei Yu was to reject Yue Xuelin directly.

But besides that, Xu Juan had another emotion in his heart – when he started adding “Pei Yu” to his life balance, he had to admit that Pei Yu had a special place in his heart.

It’s not a development he likes.

Xu Juan thought about it for a few days, and wandered for a while between “self-control” and “just be happy with the flow”, and finally felt that he was thinking too much.

What is he afraid of? Afraid of being planted on Pei Yu?

Even if you think about it, you know it’s impossible. Jiangshan is easy to change and his nature is hard to change. To put it in a nasty way, a dog can’t change and eat shit.

So, Xu Juan gave up the psychological struggle, eat and drink, and picked a suitable time to confess to Pei Yu about the engagement.

It was the day before his birthday.

Monday, September 9.

Pei Yu didn’t have class this afternoon, and came back before one o’clock. Xu Juan just didn’t go to the company and was playing with the pots of flowers under the window at home when Pei Yu suddenly walked into the door and hugged him from behind.

“What are you doing?” He was tightly wrapped around his waist, and Pei Yu was blowing hot air against his ear, “You didn’t steal the leaves behind my back, did you?”

“…”

Xu Juan laughed: “No, don’t put it on your back. Can I be the villain who murdered plants? I’m so loving, so I can help you water the flowers.”

He turned around and kissed Pei Yu: “I came back so early, have you eaten yet?”

“Eat, how about you?”

” I’ve eaten it too.” Xu Juan broke free from Pei Yu’s arms and went to the bathroom to wash off the flower mud on his hands. When he came out, Pei Yu had just cut a plate of oranges and stuffed a slice into his mouth.

Xu Juan bit and said vaguely, “Pei Yu, I have something to tell you.”

“What’s the matter?” Pei Yu handed him the fruit plate and went into the bedroom to change his clothes. When he came back from get off work every day, the first thing he did was take off his suit and change into comfortable home clothes, and then went to the study to work overtime and write papers Or preparing for classes, in short, very busy, rarely rest.

Xu Juan stood in the living room and looked at the open door of the bedroom. For a moment, his mouth seemed to be sealed and he couldn’t open his mouth, but he still chose to speak.

“I had a talk with Yue Xuelin that day.” As soon as he said that, Pei Yu’s unbuttoning movement suddenly stopped, and he slowly turned his head to look at him.

Xu Juan said: “What she said surprised me. She meant that if I wanted, she could marry me and deal with my parents. What she wanted was the benefits brought by the marriage, as long as it was helpful to their Yue family, and the rest It doesn’t matter.”

Pei Yu’s expression froze: “What do you mean?”

“I’m discussing with you.” Xu Juan said, “What do you think?”

“…”

Pei Yu looked away from his face and landed on On the wardrobe door, then he silently changed his clothes, repeated the same words, and asked Xu Juan: “What do you mean?”

Xu Juan took the fruit bowl and walked to the bedroom door: “I mean, if you agree with me and her If we get married, I can easily solve my family’s problems, and we won’t have any other troubles together in the future, and no one will interfere with us.”

Pei Yu didn’t answer.

Xu Juan could only see the profile of his face, his expression was rather unsightly, as if a scoop of ink had suddenly been splashed on a flat, clean and white piece of paper, the smudges penetrated into his eyes, making his eyes dry, and then turned to look at Xu Juan. When the trickle, the eyes are a little red.

“I don’t understand.” Pei Yu whispered, “What do you mean, you lied to me that day, you didn’t reject her at all, and you discussed the countermeasures in private? Then why didn’t you tell me these days and keep it a secret? I, I don’t know anything, I’m happily preparing a birthday present for you, you… but you want to marry her?”

“Not really.” Xu Juan emphasized again, “Do you agree, Pei Yu ?”

“I don’t agree.” Pei Yu said firmly.

He came out of the bedroom, pushed away Xu Juan who was blocking the door, walked for a while, and suddenly turned around again, his face was full of anger and disappointment: “What is a form marriage? Can you explain it? Don’t get a certificate? No A wedding? Not public?”

“…”

“No way, you will get the certificate, and you will invite all your relatives and friends to attend the wedding. They wish you a hundred years of marriage. She is your righteous wife! And you let me be yours. Underground lover?!”

“That’s not what I meant.”

“What do you mean?!”

“…”

Pei Yu rarely gets angry, and almost never speaks loudly to Xu Juan, he is so gentle, Xu Juan can bully him and tease him at will He, made him sad, just coax him casually.

But the more this is the case, the less Xu Juan seems to take him seriously, thinking that he has no bottom line and can accept anything.

“I—” Pei Yu took a deep breath, “I don’t quite understand, is today April Fool’s Day, Xu Juan? Are you kidding me?”

“…No.”

“Then why do you say this? What are you talking about? Are you serious? Do you really want to marry her?”

“No, I’m discussing with you.”

Xu Juan put the fruit bowl on the cabinet next to him and walked to Pei Yu’s side, but Pei Yu said: ” I don’t think it’s necessary to discuss this matter, if I marry a certain woman, I tell you, don’t worry, I’m just married to her, can you accept it?”

“…”

Of course not.

Xu Juan felt a headache, he stretched out his arms to hug Pei Yu, lay on Pei Yu’s shoulder, and whispered, “I only like you, not her.”

“That’s not good, what do you think of me? You don’t care about me at all. Do you feel it, Xu Juan?”

“I care.”

“You don’t care.”

“…”

“You just don’t care.” Pei Yu lowered his voice again and said in a deep voice, “When you pursued me, I think you like me very much, I know you In fact, I couldn’t sleep at seven o’clock, but you insisted on sending me good morning every day. After we got together, I couldn’t feel how much you loved me. The more time passed, the more I felt… You don’t seem to like it that much. Me, only when I’m sad will you give me a little love, and you don’t seem to want to do anything for me anymore.”

Pei Yu cupped Xu Juan’s face in both hands: “Have I wronged you, do you think Do you think you treated me like this?”

“Really?” Xu Juan said innocently, “I didn’t mean to, I still like you very much, even more than before.”

He kissed Pei Yu’s finger in this position. : “I want to solve the problem. As long as you can accept it, a formal marriage is just a superficial marriage. Yue Xuelin and I each take what we need, and neither one owes anyone anything. You are my true love.”

Pei Yu suddenly took his hand away: “You See if you are discussing with me now? You are trying to persuade me to agree! Since you have already made a decision and have a choice in your heart, why ask me again?!”

Xu Juan choked.

“I have a question.” Pei Yu said again.

“What?”

“You also like women, right?”

“…”

“You like men and women, then you marry her, and after you get married, don’t you live with her for a day? If The family wants you to have children, do you want to sleep with her?——You get married with someone else, hold a grand wedding with someone else, have sex with someone else, and have a child with someone else, but in the end, you still have to say that I am you ‘Real lover’? Xu Juan, do you think I’m eighteen years old this year and can’t understand clearly?!”

Xu Juan was speechless.

His dirty thoughts were all selfish desires. He wanted the best of both worlds, and even wanted to enjoy the blessings of Qi people in disguise, but Pei Yu was unwilling.

No matter how stupid Pei Yu is, he is not really a fool.

“Do you really love me?” Pei Yu asked suddenly.

Xu Juan nodded.

Pei Yu stared at him for a few seconds. In addition to being angry, love still prevailed, and he was willing to talk to him: “Since you love me, why can’t we solve the problem well? The real solution is not to convince your parents. Well, why do you have to listen to the arrangements at home, you are an adult, Xu Juan, why do you want others to guide your life? Can’t you resist?”

Xu Juan was stunned, his expression a bit complicated.

Pei Yu didn’t understand, he took Xu Juan’s love that came from his mouth too seriously, thinking that he could say anything, and every sentence came from the bottom of his heart: “I don’t know if what I think is right, maybe… you are because Is it a financial problem, because you live in a house given to you by your mother, drive an expensive sports car, every item in your wardrobe is a luxury item, a pair of shoes is worth someone’s salary for a month, and you open a bottle of wine at a meal, and you’re just fine. Enough for half a year of expenses for ordinary people. You spend your family’s money, so you have to listen to their arrangements, is that so, Xu Juan?”

“…”

Xu Juan’s face became a little embarrassed for a moment, the so-called being stabbed in a sore spot , but nothing more.

But Pei Yu still wanted to talk to him: “Do you want to change? You can live your own life, go to work well, you—” “Okay

.” Xu Juan interrupted, “I know, I know you I don’t agree.”

He took two steps back, a little further away from Pei Yu.

His sudden indifference made Pei Yu stunned, and they looked at each other for a few seconds in silence.

Xu Juan suddenly felt boring.

Pei Yu likes him so much, but what he likes is not the real him. Revealing the charming disguise, he himself is extravagant, scumbag, and does not seek to make progress. Pei Yu doesn’t like him like this.

Everything is meaningless.

What the hell is he doing?

In the living room, the floor-to-ceiling windows were so bright that the floor reflected light, and Xu Juan suddenly felt a pain in his eyes.

He avoided Pei Yu’s outstretched hand and made a random excuse: “I have something to go out and come back later.”

Then he left Pei Yu and left home in a hurry.

“—Xu Juan!”

He didn’t even hear the voice behind him.
