Quick Wear: Love still depends on two love brains

Zhong Liqi looked at Quan Jiuxi, and a hint of imperceptible contempt quickly flashed across her face. She was just the adopted daughter of the Pei family.

And he is at the same level as her cousin, so he is not to be feared at all.

Then, she picked up the juice beside her, and a seemingly friendly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Sister Xiaoxi, please take care of me in the future."

Quan Jiuxi smiled back, but his eyes were extremely cold.

Leng Mei turned her gaze to Pei Zhi, with a clear hint in her eyes, "Xiao Zhi, your sister Zhongli loves to eat fish. You are close to her, so take a piece."

Pei Zhi paused with his hand holding the dish, and the chopsticks hung in the air, without moving for a long time.

At this moment, a sharp and piercing pain came from under my feet.

He raised his head slightly, his gaze piercing Quan Jiuxi's deep eyes where no emotion could be seen.

For some reason, at this moment, he was extremely certain that if he dared to pick up the piece of fish, the girl in front of him with a stern face would definitely overturn the table on the spot.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

He directly picked up the plate with the fish and placed it in front of Zhong Liqi.

Seeing this, Leng Mei glared at him fiercely, full of anger and frustration.

Zhong Liqi bit her lip, trying to force a smile, and said softly, "Thank you."

Then he stretched out his chopsticks and carefully picked up a piece of fish.

After dinner, Leng Mei still refused to give up the idea in her heart, and said in a firm tone, "Xiao Zhi, send Qiqi home and come back."

Pei Zhi nodded slightly, stood upright, and walked towards the door with an expressionless face.

Leng Mei gently patted Zhong Liqi's hand, with a friendly smile on her face, "Come and visit us often when you have time."

"Okay, Auntie." Zhong Liqi nodded obediently.

The two figures slowly walked out of the door and disappeared into the night.

Leng Mei sat in front of Quan Jiuxi and said expectantly, "Xiaoxi, look at them. They are such a perfect match."

Quan Jiuxi looked up and saw the man was tall and had long legs, while the woman was walking gently and obediently behind him. Her petite figure looked even more fragile against the man's backdrop.

But in Quan Jiuxi's eyes, this scene did not seem beautiful at all. She narrowed her eyes slightly and coldly spat out two words, "A good match."

"Xi girl, it's your turn." Pei Chengguo was concentrating on playing chess with Quan Jiuxi, stroking the warm jade chess piece that Quan Jiuxi gave him as a gift.

The chess pieces feel cool, delicate and warm to the touch.

She withdrew her gaze, thought for a moment, and then made her next move.

When Pei Zhi came back, Quan Jiuxi was still playing chess with his grandfather intently.

"Xiao Zhi, your niece is amazing and very smart." Pei Chengguo waved his hand at Pei Zhi and beckoned him over.

Pei Zhi looked up and saw Quan Jiuxi holding the black chess pieces. Her moves were vigorous yet sharp, which was inconsistent with her usual arrogant and willful character.

Pei Zhi nodded slightly, "Not bad."

"Didn't you teach him privately?" Pei Chengguo asked doubtfully.

Pei Zhi poured a cup of tea for the two of them, his movements graceful and calm. "I'm away from home all year round and very busy, so I haven't touched it in many years."

Pei Chengguo stood up and said, "Then you guys play a game. I need to rest my old bones."

The two men hurriedly stood up and respectfully watched Pei Chengguo leave.

Pei Zhi looked at the chessboard that had not yet been finished, with a hint of interest in his eyes. There was another reason why he didn't like playing chess, which was that he had never met an opponent of equal strength.

"Let's play a game?" Pei Zhi asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Okay." Quan Jiuxi said with a chuckle, bright and charming.

The atmosphere was unusually quiet. If it weren't for the fierce chess game, it seemed as if time had stopped.

……

On the second-floor balcony, Pei Chengguo quietly looked at the two figures downstairs.

Butler Sun took the blanket and gently draped it over Mr. Pei, then followed the old man's gaze.

"Master, who do you think will win, Master or Miss?"

A smile suddenly flashed across Pei Chengguo's wrinkled yet dignified face.

"This Quan girl is very secretive, like a child raised by our Pei family."

Butler Sun couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the undisguised praise in the old man's words.

You know, among the younger generation, except Pei Zhi, the old man has never been so fond of anyone else.

"They are both very interesting." Old Master Pei smiled meaningfully.

At the dinner table, he saw clearly that the way Quan Jiuxi looked at Pei Zhi was not the look one gives to an elder.

It’s just that this eldest grandson is good in everything except his emotional aspect.

"Uncle, how about whoever wins this round agree to a condition from the other party?"

Quan Jiuxi looked at the chessboard, which was already halfway done, and spoke casually with a relaxed expression.

Pei Zhi said calmly, "Okay."

In the end, Pei Zhi was slightly better and won one and a half pieces.

Quan Jiuxi stood up and stretched his body, causing his clothes to move up, inadvertently revealing his delicate waist.

She picked up a chess piece, took Pei Zhi's hand, gently placed it in his palm, and then closed it, "Uncle, you must cherish this condition."

After leaving these words, he walked towards his room in the old house.

Pei Zhi stared at her departing back for a long time without coming back to his senses, holding the chess piece in his hand.

……

In the study, soft light shines on the wooden desk. Pei Zhi is concentrating on his work, with documents piled up like a mountain.

Leng Mei walked in quietly and sat quietly aside. She didn't speak for a long time, but her expression was slightly anxious.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Pei Zhi didn't even raise his head, and the pen in his hand kept writing.

Leng Mei finally couldn't help but speak, with a hint of complaint in her voice, "I asked you to meet Qiqi before, but you stood her up. Now you invited her to dinner today, and you still have this attitude. I'm really worried about you..."

Pei Zhi stopped writing, rubbed his brows, and said helplessly, "Mom, I won't get married."

Leng Mei stood up abruptly upon hearing this, her expression changing drastically, "Why? You...you can't..."

Seeing Leng Mei's shocked expression, Pei Zhi's face darkened, "I'm in good health."

"I know this. What you mean, Mom, is that you like boys?" Leng Mei said anxiously.

Pei Zhi felt a sharp pain in his temples and asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone, "What do you think?"

"Then why don't you get married?" Leng Mei stared at Pei Zhi closely, determined not to give up until he got a reason.

Pei Zhi looked at Leng Mei's serious expression and said lightly, "I'm allergic to women."

"Allergy? How could there be such a problem?" Leng Mei widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

"It's been like this since I was a kid."

Leng Mei looked at Pei Zhi. From his resolute eyes, she knew clearly that her son was not lying. She still asked persistently, "No exceptions?"

Pei Zhi's mind flashed with the little hand that had just held his, but he didn't frown at all and said without hesitation, "No."
