When they met again, the boss' eyes turned red, kissed her and said sweet words to her

"Last year, Aunt Fang passed away. Yinyin was in pain for half a year. She had just gotten back on her feet, and you showed up again!"

Lin Sitian was annoyed: "How are you going to hurt her this time? Are you going to force her to death again?"

When Pei Jingmo heard the word "death", a layer of gray mist seemed to cover his eyes. Through this layer of mist, he looked at Xu Nanyin quietly and cautiously.

She is so thin.

Standing on the empty roadside, it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow her away from his sight.

She used to be as greedy as a pig, so why did he forget to ask her why she became so thin?

"You selfish bastard! You only care about your own pleasure and keep pestering Yinyin. Why don't you ask her if she wants to see you again? Thinking of those painful memories..."

Pei Jingmo opened his lips, but he clearly had so much to say, yet he couldn't utter a single word. His usually bright mind and sharp tongue were completely out of function.

"Sisi, let's go."

A low and soft voice sounded, and no special emotion could be heard in it, but it was like a soft knife piercing his heart.

Xu Nanyin grabbed Lin Sitian's hand and was about to leave when a man's hoarse and slow voice suddenly came from behind her, "Xu Nanyin, I..."

He seemed to be trying hard to endure something. "You have to believe that no matter in the past or now, I would rather get hurt than hurt you at any time."

She was stunned for a moment, suppressed the sour taste that suddenly surged in her nose, and walked forward quickly.

"That sounds nice! Then go die first and repay Yinyin..."

***

Lu Ye held the little Pomeranian in his left hand and pulled a cart with his right hand. On the cart was a huge bouquet of 1314 red roses and flowers made of hundred-yuan bills. He hurried to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

It was getting dark in the evening, but I could still see Brother Mo sitting on the steps with his legs open and his head lowered, motionless, as if he exuded an aura of decadence and negativity.

He approached cautiously: "Brother, what's going on...Isn't the sister-in-law I got going to fly away?"

His brother Mo seemed to be unable to hear anything. He cleared his throat and said, "Xu Nanyin!"

The man who was like a stone statue just now slowly raised his head, his eyes searching.

"Sister-in-law is not here, Ono is here..."

Pei Jingmo narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at him coldly. He wanted to scold him but couldn't muster the energy. "Do you have any cigarettes?"

"Aren't you going to quit smoking?"

Lu Ye took out a cigarette case and a lighter and handed them to him in surprise.

"Click!"

Pei Jingmo bit a cigarette between his thin lips, lit it, took a deep puff, and blew out smoke rings.

After smoking one, I smoked several more...

Lu Ye didn't dare to breathe, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, where is my sister-in-law? Didn't you say you were going to get your marriage certificate today? I prepared all the red roses for you, and I also bought a little Pomeranian for my sister-in-law. I specially permed its fur in rainbow colors and named it Rainbow Fart..."

"Woof woof..." Rainbow Fart barked twice in cooperation.

"No wonder."

Pei Jingmo paused smoking, as if he couldn't hear anything. He muttered to himself, "No wonder she pretended not to know me at first and was so resistant to me. No wonder her personality changed so much... It's all my fault."

He put out his cigarette, and with difficulty, he stood up slowly and stiffly. "Where are the things I asked you to bring?"

"Here." Lu Ye took out a box from his pocket and handed it over.

Pei Jingmo took it and opened it. Inside the box was a ring inlaid with pink diamonds, which was dazzling and beautiful.

Last year, he saw it at a foreign auction and decisively bought it for over 100 million yuan. That day happened to be Xu Nanyin's birthday, and he was thinking of waiting for her to come back and use it as a wedding ring.

He carefully put the box into the pocket where he kept the little red book and told Lu Ye, "Call Gu Tingxuan and have a drink."

He walked forward, then thought of something: "Pick up the cigarette butts on the ground."

So Lu Ye was talking to Gu Tingxuan on WeChat while squatting on the ground to pick up cigarette butts. He also had to drive away the flatterers who were sniffing the cigarette butts on the ground: "You want to smoke after getting your hair permed? Do you want to drink two more taels of wine?"

A dark and noisy bar.

Pei Jingmo sat in the booth and poured himself a glass of wine.

"Brother Xuan is here." Lu Ye shouted.

Gu Tingxuan sat down, glanced at Pei Jingmo, and said in a gloomy tone: "Your and Xu Nanyin's child is already a month old so soon?"

Pei Jingmo was at ease: "What about you? Did you castrate yourself according to Jiang Xu's words?"

The corner of his eye twitched, and Lu Ye closed his mouth to avoid being contaminated by the smell of gunpowder.

There were three people at the table, two were unhappy, one was brainless, and the other was silent.

Finally, Lu Ye found a topic to talk about and asked Gu Tingxuan, "I heard that Su Xinyue didn't break up with you, and you are getting married in three months?"

Gu Tingxuan tilted his head back, took a sip of wine, and hummed.

"What about Jiang Xu?"

"I'm keeping her."

Pei Jingmo, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly put down his wine glass and asked, "Have you asked her if she's willing to be supported by you?"

"You have to be willing even if you don't want to. I won't let go." Gu Tingxuan's face was cold and without a trace of emotion.

Pei Jingmo didn't know why, but he suddenly exploded, "Then don't fucking marry Su Xinyue. She's a good girl, why should you keep her like your secret lover?"

"I won't treat her badly, whether it's a house, a car, a diamond ring, or anything else. I just owe her a name." Gu Tingxuan's expression was too calm, seeming ruthless: "She won't be able to find a man with better conditions than me."

"Then let me ask you, would you sleep with Su Xinyue? Would you give birth to an heir with her?"

Gu Tingxuan paused, "This is unavoidable."

Lu Ye listened and understood it very well. After all, in their circle, marriage was not based on some illusory love, except for the rare exceptions like his awesome Brother Mo.

On the other hand, he felt his brother was a complete jerk. They say when it comes to dating, a newspaper finds a newspaper, a white paper finds a white paper. He just looks for a gold digger and pays her, and that's it. But Jiang Xu, that girl, is clearly far from pure.

Just as he was lost in thought, the table was suddenly overturned!

Pei Jingmo punched Gu Tingxuan in the face, "Selfish bastard! Do you really love her, or do you only love yourself? If she was after your money, would she commit suicide?"

"Either you let go, or you love her wholeheartedly and don't end up hurting both yourself and others!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Tingxuan's fist hit him back, "Do you think everyone is as awesome as you, that you can control the entire consortium in four years? I'm a fucking scumbag. I can't bear to give up the wealth and status brought by my background, nor can I bear to give up her..."

The two fought together.

Lu Ye held the trembling Rainbow Fart in his arms, poured himself a glass of wine, and patted its head, "Don't be afraid, they will fight each other and won't fight us."

With a soft howl, the rainbow fart showed that the sister understood, and the little paw dug into the empty wine glass on the table, as if to say: "Fill a glass for me too."

Lu Ye picked up the wine and symbolically poured it a glass.

After a while, Pei Jingmo and Gu Tingxuan both had bruises on their faces. They sat down facing each other and drank silently.

Lu Ye snorted, "You two living fathers! Keep fighting! Who can beat you two? I'm ready to call an ambulance."

"Shut up!" Two gloomy voices shouted at the same time.

***

In the middle of the night, Xu Nanyin was woken up by the vibrating alarm clock.

She glanced at the caller ID, then at Lin Sitian who was sleeping soundly next to her. She carefully got out of bed and went to the balcony outside.

Hesitantly answering the call, he heard the man's vague, drunken voice: "Honey, today, I just... helped us defeat the Scumbag Alliance and made an outstanding contribution. Do you want to... praise me?"

Who to attack? Gu Tingxuan?

Xu Nanyin's mouth twitched, but she didn't ask. She remained silent, not knowing what to say.

"How can I have the nerve to ask you to praise me?"

Pei Jingmo paused, then asked in a hoarse voice, "About jumping into the river..."

He choked up.
