Chapter 17 That Friend Seems Interested in You

There was a sound of ping-ping-pong-pong in the room, and Aunt Jiang went up to take a look, only to see a piece of glass in the room was broken, Xue Yu smiled apologetically at her, "Accidentally swept it down with my elbow. "

He wanted to bend down to pick up the shards of glass on the ground, but Aunt Jiang hurriedly stopped him, "I'll do it, be careful not to cut your hands."

Aunt Jiang hurried to get a broom to sweep away the debris, every bit of scum would come out from the cracks in the ground carefully, for fear that Xue Yu would hurt the soles of her feet when she walked by, "Are you dizzy?" Aunt Jiang asked.

"A little dizzy." Xue Yu leaned against the back of the swivel chair, seeming a little tired.

"Does the headache hurt? Shall I call the doctor over to see—"

"It's okay, I'll be fine just lie down for a while," Xue Yu's voice gradually became weaker, "It's just a small problem..."

After cleaning the floor completely and changing a floor mat, Xueyu has already closed her eyes and leaned on the back of the chair, breathing evenly. There are still half-finished business on the computer desk, probably because she is really tired up.

Aunt Jiang was a little sad.

Xueyu's health is really bad, he suffers from illness every two days, like a porcelain doll in a glass window cabinet, but Xue Dongqing wants him to take over all the company's affairs, and requires him to do everything by himself, which is very frustrating.

Aunt Jiang exited from the inside, and when she just closed the door and turned around, a person suddenly appeared in front of her, which shocked her. Aunt Jiang narrowly swallowed her screams: "Mr. Xue? You're off work. ah."

Xue Dongqing nodded slightly.

He was tall, with white hair on his sideburns. He had a stern face and a cold demeanor, which made people feel inaccessible. The well-tailored suit made him look tall and straight. Just standing there made people feel oppressed. feel.

"Is Xiaoyu in the room?"

Aunt Jiang hesitated for a while, "Yes, but he was probably too tired to deal with work, and just fell asleep on the swivel chair."

Xue Dongqing frowned, "Just sleep on the chair, isn't he afraid of catching cold?"

Aunt Jiang couldn't answer, and saw him unscrew the handle of the door, and walked in lightly.

The door was not closed, leaving a gap. Aunt Jiang saw Xue Dongqing walk to the chair and leaned over. The faces of the two seemed to be very close. After a while, Xue Dongqing carefully picked up the person on the chair , and gently put it on the bed a few steps forward.

Xue Yu didn't wake up, he had taken medicine and fell into a deep sleep.

Xue Dongqing stood by the bed and stared down at his face, without making a sound.

Aunt Jiang looked at it, and suddenly felt that the scene looked very weird.She didn't dare to guess too much, and took the broken glass downstairs.

This time Xuesong was really hardened, she hadn't called her home for two months, and she stayed in the boot camp for so long without making a sound.

Lin Mizhi has long forgotten his bold ambition to stand upside down and be busy with various jobs. His popularity has risen rapidly, and most of them are fans. He came here for the role of the proprietress, and his fan base has increased. There are many but unstable, and there are all kinds of negative comments about him on the Internet.

Lin Mizhi smiled and held the phone in his hand to say something, his yin and yang skills were even better, and he even took it as fun, guarding his comment area to find happiness, which saved a lot of time to harass Lu Mingzhou.

"Hmm... so you are all good friends?" Pei Xiqing looked out the window, stirring the coffee in the cup carelessly,

"Forget it," Lu Mingzhou picked up his coffee and took a sip, "After all, I used to take them with me when they were young. Lin Mi has a big heart, and Xue Song is irritable. The two of them can get together because they grew up together. There is a big reason, otherwise we really can’t get along.”

"There is no overnight feud between brothers. They had many fights when they were young, and Xuesong won every time. Lin Mizhi was pressed and beaten. After the fight, he told his parents to cry and forgot about it the next day. For the matter of being beaten, I ran to mess with Xuesong so cheaply."

The cafe is very warmly decorated, Pei Xiqing propped his chin by the sunny window, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Sounds very interesting."

Lu Mingzhou laughed, "What's so interesting about this, the two kids are shaking their fists, their noses and tears are flying, and there is no one who will let the other say when they fight." So Xue Lan would call him when she couldn't control the two of them. In the past, the two children would be a little more honest.

Pei Xiqing: "I haven't experienced it, nor have I seen it. It really sounds interesting."

Lu Mingzhou raised his eyebrows, "Don't you have a younger brother?"

As soon as he said that, he regretted it, because he forgot that the relationship between Pei Xiqing and his younger brother seemed normal.

"Brother," Pei Xiqing smiled, "I haven't fought him before, so I can't fight." When Pei Jiajun wanted to hit him when he was a child, he could only stand and let the opponent hit him, and he would never fight back.He was under someone else's roof, so it was impossible for him to attack Pei Jiajun.

Oh, no, in fact, he once slapped Pei Jiajun, and he slapped Pei Jiajun so hard that the side of the other's nose and mouth were bleeding, but that was not a memory worth remembering, and he didn't want to think about it.

Someone walked towards the seat here, and a camel-colored windbreaker stopped by the table, accompanied by a slightly surprised "Xiaoqing"?

Pei Xiqing looked up and saw Jiang Tan pulling up her long hair behind her head with a hairpin, revealing a beautiful face, holding a cup of coffee in her hand, looking at him in surprise: "I didn't expect to meet him here." You."

Pei Xiqing nodded: "What a coincidence."

"Who is this……"

Lu Mingzhou stretched out his hand first, and said politely: "Hi, Lu Mingzhou, I'm Xiqing's friend."

Jiang Tan then shook his hand and said with a smile, "Hello, Jiang Tan."

Not long after he returned to China, he followed a group of aunts to climb the mountain to meet Pei Xiqing, but he didn't expect that the first person he fell in love with after returning to China seemed to have a master now, which could also explain why Pei Xiqing, who was constantly short of money, Youth Club rejected his part-time model.

Jiang Tan sighed: "Seeing that you have changed a lot now, it seems that life should have improved a lot. I was still wondering when I could ask you to be a model again. The few people I found later were not what I wanted," He looked at the half-drinked coffee between the two, "I just stopped by to buy a cup of coffee, but I didn't expect to meet you, how are you doing now?"

"pretty good."

Jiang Tan smiled, "That's it," he looked at his watch, "Ah, I have something to do, so I won't bother you, let's talk next time I have a chance."

"See you."

"Goodbye."

Jiang Tan's camel-colored windbreaker walked out of the store and slowly disappeared from sight.

Lu Mingzhou added a candy cube to the coffee, "Are you friends?"

"It doesn't count, I just worked part-time with him."

"It looks very artistic."

"Yes, he seems to be a painter, but I don't know the details." Jiang Tan's figure is very youthful. When he wears his hair, he is a bit indistinguishable from male and female, and he is also more particular about his clothes. The whole person really looks very good There is an artistic atmosphere.

Pei Xiqing didn't continue talking about him, and took out his phone to read the documents. The sunlight outside the window shone in, making him drowsy due to the comfort.

Lu Mingzhou propped his chin, his eyes stopped on his eyelashes trimmed with gold rims.

Pei Xiqing has whitened a lot, and there is a visible difference from his appearance a few months ago. Just outside the window behind him, an advertisement is playing on the huge LED screen on the wall of a high-rise building. Close-ups of Zhao Songhuan's recent photos are switched and played in turn. , he heard the excited "ahhhhh" voice of a girl in the cafe.

Pei Xiqing suddenly opened his eyes, "Are you still going to the company this afternoon?"

"No, I'll take a rest." Lu Mingzhou's posture was very loose, "I worked too much overtime a while ago, so I need to take a rest."

Pei Xiqing put away her phone, "Want to go back early? I don't have class this afternoon either."

Lu Mingzhou was still wearing a suit, and when he heard this, he lifted his coat, "Then let's go."

The two of them had just gotten into the car, and the seat belts hadn't been fastened yet. Lu Mingzhou suddenly pulled his chin and kissed him, with a strong smell of coffee in his breath: "That friend of yours just now seems to be interested in you."

Pei Xiqing fastened his seat belt, and half-jokingly said: "What, is Mr. Lu jealous?"

Lu Mingzhou clicked his tongue, "It's a bit."

As soon as he backed away from the co-pilot, the cramped feeling caused by the narrow space also faded a lot. Pei Xiqing saw his red lips from being sucked in the right view mirror, and pursed it, feeling a little numb.

It's probably because he has been holding back for a long time, and Lu Mingzhou occasionally moves with a force of desire, desire and dissatisfaction, and he may not have noticed it himself.However, Pei Xiqing admired his endurance.

When he was by Lu Mingzhou's side, he also learned some rumors.

It is said that Mr. Lu has a romantic nature and has never had a fixed partner. He has changed lovers one after another. Even when he was in the cafe just now, he took out his mobile phone to read information, and the screen of the mobile phone reflected the LED display on the high wall outside the window. The star above was Zhao Songhuan, and when he raised his eyes, he happened to see Lu Mingzhou looking up at the display screen.

This is not surprising at all, isn't it, it's just that he really didn't expect that Lu Mingzhou would spend so much patience with him.

Maybe it's because of certain qualities in me that the other party is so calm and treats him like a pet?Such as being down, such as being pitiful, such as having nowhere to go, such as thinking that he is alone and helpless... It's like keeping a stray cat in captivity for a while, it doesn't necessarily put much effort into it, just provide it with a good environment, every day After returning home, feed the cat food, comb the hair, and then carefully stroke it. When the cat opens up and completely relies on it, the subconscious will feel a sense of accomplishment.

Even so, Lu Mingzhou is still the only person who has treated him best in the past 21 years.Even though he knew it was just a deal, the balance in Pei Xiqing's heart would still uncontrollably tilt towards him, and it had nothing to do with love.

So he cooperated with Lu Mingzhou's kindness to him.

Lu Mingzhou sometimes worked overtime until very late, and he worked overtime continuously. He was really tired a while ago. When he got home in the afternoon, he took a shower and basically fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed.

The room of the two of them was in the master bedroom. Pei Xiqing sat on the bay window reading a book and did a lot of homework. He was also a little tired, so he just lay down on the sofa, squinted his eyes, and fell asleep unknowingly. past.

The afternoon sun was strong, the air conditioner was turned on to 21 degrees, but the nap was destined to get hotter and hotter, and he even had an uncharacteristically beautiful dream.
