Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

Chapter 227: Career-minded Professor x Gentle and Well-behaved Mermaid 32

Zhang Tai was taken to the research institute.

Pei Xun was sitting on the chair he usually sat on, without a white coat, staring at him coldly.

"Professor Pei." Zhang Tai called out.

The sense of oppression from Pei Xun was always strong. Even though Zhang Tai had decided not to say anything before coming here, he still couldn't overcome the fear in his heart.

"Pour him a glass of water." Pei Xun looked at Wang Jing, and then said to Zhang Tai, "You don't have to be nervous, drink some water first."

Wang Jing handed the glass over and Zhang Tai reached out to take it.

Pei Xun didn't say anything and seemed to have turned his eyes away from him.

This made Zhang Tai even more nervous. When people are nervous, they always want to do something, so Zhang Tai put the cup to his lips and took a sip of the clear liquid in the cup.

Pei Xun finally spoke up. He asked, "Where did you send the mermaid?"

Zhang Tai gripped the cup tightly with his fingers and clenched his fists, "Professor Pei, the mermaid belongs to the sea. We shouldn't be selfish and keep him."

Selfish?

Pei Xun smiled and said, "My dear stayed here voluntarily from the moment he was pulled out of the water. Can't you see that?"

Zhang Tai saw it, he knew that the mermaid liked Pei Xun.

The last time he went to see him, he was still thinking about Pei Xun.

"But you shouldn't use love to hurt him!" Zhang Tai was trembling. He didn't know what he would face next, but he still said tremblingly, "You will definitely be punished for doing this. You will lose him if you take advantage of other people's feelings!"

lose?

Pei Xun never thought about losing her. He just wanted to find the mermaid back. Zhang Tai was the only one who knew where the mermaid had gone.

"I want to ask you."

Pei Xun paused, "Where is the mermaid now?"

"You don't need to feel any burden. Just tell me a position and I can arrange a better job for you. Even your mother can come to live in the city if you want."

Zhang Tai's face turned red, not because of excitement, but because of anger.

After hearing this, he began to reflect on why he had regarded such a person as his idol and why he had regarded entering such a research institute as his lifelong pursuit.

Now every word Pei Xun said made him feel sick.

Pei Xun and Wang Jing were both waiting for his reply.

Maybe it was because of the anger, but Zhang Tai suddenly felt dizzy. He swayed and almost fell off the chair he was sitting on. Wang Jing stepped forward and held him up.

"Where is the mermaid?"

Zhang Tai could hear Pei Xun's voice, but his head was dizzy. He knew that he must not speak, but his mouth was out of control and he said the address slowly and mechanically.

And it's very detailed.

Pei Xun stood up and winked at Wang Jing.

Zhang Tai felt weak all over, and suddenly realized that there might be something wrong with the glass of water.

I only drank a little bit, but I didn't expect that I would still be tricked.

In this situation, it is too late for Zhang Tai to regret!

……

Pei He prepared shrimp skin for the crabs, and Xiaoyi ate it with relish.

Xu Bai couldn't eat anything. Pei He asked him what he liked to eat but he couldn't get the answer. In the end, he could only cook some noodles with sesame oil on them, which smelled delicious.

"You need to eat something."

Xu Bai's fingers clenched in spasm. There was nothing he could do. When he saw the chopsticks that Pei He had paired with the bowl of noodles, he thought of Pei Xun again.

Before he could even take a bite, Pei He's phone started ringing frantically. The caller was the detective who had been keeping an eye on Pei Xun. "Mr. Pei, you need to leave quickly. Your residence seems to have been discovered!"

Is it Pei Xun?

Xu Bai raised his head and looked over with a pair of eyes filled with anticipation, nervousness and panic.

Pei He didn't pack his things.

He has a car, and since he dares to be here, he is prepared for the worst.

"Pei Xun is here."

Pei He said to Xu Bai, "But we can't meet him at this time. Just listen to my arrangements, okay?"

Xu Bai had no choice but to follow Pei He's arrangements.

Pei Xun arrived quickly, but it was too late, and the place was empty.

Not only that, Pei Xun also received a call from the other side. The person using the voice changer grinned, "Professor Pei, you are really unkind. Now, I have decided to pull out the scales of the mermaid."

"no!"

Pei Xun finally began to show some emotions.

Pei He put his hand on Xu Bai's shoulder. He seemed to have noticed something and turned on the hands-free function.

"You can't do this." Pei Xun's voice came clearly.

Xu Bai: [Here it comes! ] It sounds a bit exciting.

Liu'er didn't understand what "coming" meant, and was about to ask when he heard Pei Xun speak.

"I have prepared the money you want."

"Besides, it's useless for you to take his scales. If you want, you can let me do it."

"Only scales taken out by someone he loves can maintain their original appearance."

It was already painful enough.

But the truth was ruthlessly revealed, and after the things used to cover up the truth were torn off, all that was revealed were smelly and dirty things.

——Only those who are loved by him.

Scales, blood...

So, so everything is fake.

Xu Bai wanted to scream, but suddenly a hoarse whimper broke out from his throat, crying blood and causing him to feel extremely painful.

The mermaid began to tremble, and a sound that was extremely broken uttered in the trembling, "What, what did you say..."

The voice was very small, but Pei Xun still heard it. He didn't expect that the "kidnapper" would let the mermaid listen next to him. The expression on his face changed again and again. He wanted to explain, but didn't know how to say it.

[Pei Xun's Favorability: 70]

Pei He knew that Pei Xun could not say anything nice, but the mermaid was shaking like a branch about to break in the wind and rain, and the guilt that had been suppressed was ready to surface again.

"80 million, let's meet somewhere."

Pei Xun was already standing in their previous house, especially in the bathtub. The sea water in the bathtub had not been completely drained yet, and a few scattered pearls at the bottom of the bathtub were held in Pei Xun's hands.

So cool.

Pei Xu has been trying hard to seize control of his body. He tried to explain to the mermaid, wanted to tell him "darling, it wasn't me", and also wanted to cut the person who made him suffer into pieces!

But I can't do anything and can only hide in a dark corner.

——Comfort him!

You comfort him!

Pei Xu was shouting desperately. Pei Xun noticed something was wrong with his body and tightly grasped the pearl in his hand.

"Wanning Cemetery."

These four words were spoken in a strange tone.

Pei Xun was stunned for a moment.

He didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and he didn't agree immediately, but just repeated the four words.

Pei Xu took back the body when Pei Xun was in a trance!

"Who are you?" Pei Xu asked.

"Give me the phone! I need to talk to him!"

Be good?

So this is how my own brother is called a mermaid?

"Tomorrow at ten o'clock." Pei He told him, "You know where to meet."

"I want to talk to him!" The voice on the other end sounded very anxious, "Let me talk to the mermaid!"

This tone made Pei He feel familiar.

The merman noticed something, and he tentatively called out in a low, choking voice, "...Pei Xu?"

"Wu... Pei Xu I..."

Then he burst into tears, like a child who had suffered a lot of grievances and finally found arms to shelter him from the wind and rain.

The call was hung up.
