"Grandpa, are you serious? Will you really help me?" Pei Chen really had no doubts and looked innocent and harmless.
Pei Yizhou sighed as he saw this, sooner or later this stupid boy would fall on a woman's head.
"Well, please help me make an appointment alone, and then send me the address directly."
"Okay, okay!" Pei Chen couldn't help but nodded happily, but still warned uneasily, "But I told others that you are my friend, so you must not reveal the truth."
If An is asked to know that Pei Yizhou is his great-grandfather, the result can be imagined.
Pei Yizhou waved his hand impatiently.
He giggled a few times, not daring to waste his great-grandfather's precious time anymore, and skipped out of the office.
After school was over in the afternoon, Pei Chen went to the milk tea shop again.
"Sister Anxiang, are you free on the weekend?!"
The young man has a lively voice and undisguised joy in his eyes.
"On the weekend?" An Xiang tilted her head in thought, "Maybe I'll go to the real estate agency and have a look."
"You don't have to look, I've already made an agreement with my friend." Pei Chen promised, patting his chest, "He will talk to you in person and sell the house to you if it's suitable."
An Xiang's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Really!" Pei Chen said, "But he wants to meet you alone. If it's not convenient, I can help you take care of Zimo."
An Xiangzheng was worried about how to arrange her son, and this directly helped her solve the problem.
***
The weekend comes in the blink of an eye.
In order to leave a good impression on the other party, An Xiang rarely put on light makeup. She didn't dare to dress too casually, nor did she dare to dress too formally. After thinking about it for a long time, she chose a simple and elegant knee-length skirt to change into.
[Pei Chen: Sister, you can go out now. I’ll wait for you downstairs.]
As soon as she finished packing, Pei Chen sent a text message.
An wanted to take her handbag and go downstairs with An Zimo.
The sun was shining brightly in May, and the young man waiting downstairs was wearing a peaked cap and a large black sweatshirt that accentuated his tall figure.
"Pei Chen." An Xiang called him from a distance.
After hearing this, Pei Chen turned around and stared at her for a moment. His handsome face turned red and he stammered in praise: "You, you look very good today." After that, he secretly glanced at her again.
An Xiang sensed something strange inexplicably. She ignored the slight discomfort and asked, "Where is your friend going to meet me?"
"It's not far. There's a coffee shop downstairs in his company. There happens to be a game arcade next to it. I can take Zimo in to play." After saying that, he pressed his big hand heavily on An Zimo's head, "What do you want, Mo Mo?"
Playing with my brother?"
[Ah, I still want him to call me dad.]
[It’s really not cute for a stinky kid to make a stinky face all day long. Forget it, sooner or later he is my son and I have to forgive him.]
His thoughts had nowhere to escape. An Zimo waved his arm away, his expression irritated.
The cafe is only a road away from the apartment.
An wanted Pei Chen to temporarily take An Zimo to play in the game hall next door, and then went into the coffee shop alone.
She randomly found a seat by the window and sat down, resting her chin on her hands while waiting and staring at the passers-by outside the window in a daze.
At this time, the cafe was empty and quiet, accompanied by melodious and gentle piano music, and the wind chimes hanging at the door made a crisp sound when the door opened.
"Welcome, do you have an appointment?"
An wanted to turn around and look.
The man he looked at came back against the light. He had clean and elegant skin and a dignified temperament. He looked around, and the two people's eyes intersected across the distance. They had the same astonishment in each other's eyes.
No...it can't be such a coincidence, right?
An looked behind him relentlessly, but no one else came in except Pei Yizhou.
She bit her lower lip, slowly stood up from the chair, and carefully tested: "Excuse me... is Mr. Pei introduced by Pei Chen?" She paused slightly, "The friend he mentioned."
"..."
That little bastard.
Pei Yizhou put one hand on his forehead and instantly felt a desire to kill.
He racked his brains and made countless calculations, but he never figured out that An Xiang would be the object of Pei Chen's love.
In other words... the person he rejected that day was not some random woman, but...
Pei Yizhou's thoughts were complicated, but his expression remained calm, showing no signs of inner anxiety.
He took a few steps forward, pulled out his chair and sat across from An Xiang.
Looking at the man's cold and outstanding facial features, An Xiang still had an unreal and illusive feeling, so he couldn't help but take out his cell phone and dial the number Pei Chen gave him earlier.
Ding.
The cell phone rang at the opposite table.
Pei Yizhou looked into her eyes and connected: "Hello, I think you are not mistaken."
An Xiang was speechless, hung up the phone blankly, and sat down again.
There was silence between the two of them.
An Xiang lowered his head and stirred the green-white fingers on his knees.
If the friend who came today was really the friend Pei Chen said, she wouldn't have any doubts, but...
Pei Chen probably didn't expect that she had met Pei Yizhou before in kindergarten.
An Xiang thought slowly and reacted slowly, but he was not really a fool. How could he not know the purpose of doing this?
"I didn't have time to ask last time. Is it convenient for me to know your name today?"
Pei Yizhou stared at her, holding the coffee cup with both hands and gently rubbing the smooth body of the cup.
In fact, it is not difficult for Pei Yizhou to investigate a person.
But only for the girl in front of him, he didn't want to.
Any presumptuous interruption may become a weapon that hurts her. Rather than doing this, Pei Yizhou wants to take it step by step, get to know her bit by bit like opening a gift, and slowly try to get closer to her.
This kind of relationship is much better.
"An Xiang, my name is An Xiang." An Xiang raised his head and quickly lowered it, "I think I miss that thought..."
"An Xiang." The man's voice was cold and cold, and her name was entangled on his lips and teeth, revealing a hint of affection for no reason.
"Pei Chen said that your house is being demolished and you need a place to live."
"Yeah." An wanted to answer, but said nothing.
Pei Yizhou leaned slightly on the back of the chair, his eyes deep and gloomy.
The girl under her eyes has obviously been carefully groomed, with black hair, fair skin, and full lips. She wears a slim-fitting sleeveless dress that wraps around her well-shaped body curves.
An Xiang lowered her eyelashes, with a few strands of hair covering her cheeks, as quiet as a painting.
He stared at the pair of crystal lips for a long time, turned his eyes away, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.
The silky warmth lingered between his lips and teeth. Pei Yizhou's Adam's apple rolled in a circle and his tone was unhurried: "I have several houses in Lijing Jiangshan. If you are free in the afternoon, I can take you to see them."
An Xiang had seen the housing listings in Lijing Jiangshan on the app, and the price of 150,000 square meters per square meter was beyond her personal affordability.
"It's a bit expensive over there, I might..."
"It's okay." Pei Yizhou interrupted softly and found an excuse without thinking, "Nono likes you very much and says your food is delicious. If you like something, I can sell it to you cheaply."
All for free.
It's best to give it for free.
It would be best for her to seize the opportunity and use some tricks to covet his money.
Pei Yizhou had his own little calculation, tapping the cup with his fingertips, waiting patiently for the girl's answer.
An Xiang was only surprised.
The media often describe Pei Yizhou with words such as "decided in killing" and "inhumane".
Even if An Xiang didn't have close contact with him, he could still see that he was not someone who could be easily persuaded, let alone for such an inexplicable reason.
Something's wrong...
"Perhaps you'd like another position?"
"No." An Xiang took a deep breath, "It's not a matter of location."
"Huh?" Pei Yizhou narrowed his eyes, "Price?"
"It's...it's not the price either." She raised her eyebrows in distress, "Anyway, I would like to thank Mr. Pei for his kindness. I may have to think about the house again."
Barely giving Pei Yizhou a chance to reach out to stop him, An wanted to say this before picking up his things and leaving quickly, not forgetting to pay for the coffee before leaving.
After An Xiang left, he was alone in the huge cafe.
Pei Yizhou faced the empty table for dozens of minutes. Finally, he picked up his phone, wrote down the number, and added the other person as a friend.
[Ding.]
[Good Mom refuses to add you as a friend.]
"..."
Pei Yizhou stared at the rejection page on the screen and made no move.
He regretted it.
