The cat that wakes up and becomes a rival

Chapter 23 ◇ "Oh? How do you want to compensate me?" [3 chapters in 1] (1)

To unlock the electronic screen, put warm fingertips on the cold touch panel, and press the digital passwords one by one.

After the sound of beeps, a series of prompts sounded, and the door lock was unlocked.

"You don't need to change your slippers, you can just come in." Shen Du unscrewed the handle and pushed the door open, turning sideways to lead the policeman behind him into the room.

The noodles in the bowl had been completely cooled, and they seemed to have swollen a lot since they left. The soup in the bowl was completely absorbed, and the noodles were plated together, forming a large lump.

Shen Du stood in the living room and looked around suspiciously. He always felt that when he opened the door, he seemed to see a shadow floating past.

And he seemed to hear a "bang", wondering if Yao'er knocked over something again.

Turning around in the living room, Shen Du did not see Yao'er.

The young policeman noticed that Shen Du seemed to be looking for something, so he immediately cheered up and paid attention to Shen Du's actions.

"What is Mr. Shen looking for?"

Shen Du said embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, my cat seems to have bumped into something—"

Before the words were finished, the closed bedroom door was opened from the inside to the outside, and a slender figure came out of the bedroom, with his hands in his trouser pockets, leaning against the door frame, with a standard smile on his mouth.

The delicate little suit was covered with tiny folds, the well-tailored white shirt was also stained with dust, and the bow at the neckline hung loosely on the side of the neck. Merry energy.

Pei Zhao raised his forearm, pinched the buttons under the cuffs with his pale fingers, and tidied things up slowly.

Lifting his lazy eyes, he looked at the shocked Shen Du standing at the door, and the policeman who didn't know why.

Shen Du never expected that a big living person would come out of his bedroom, and this person was actually Pei Zhao.

"Why are you here?" Looking past Pei Zhao at the bedroom behind him, Shen Du turned his eyes back to Pei Zhao's face.

All kinds of emotions piled up in the corners of his eyes, Pei Zhao raised the corners of his mouth and winked at the two of them.

"You didn't close the door yourself. I came in when the door was open. Who knew you were not at home." Pei Zhao tilted his head and shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression. Looking at his expression, it seemed that Shen Du had made a mistake.

open?Shen Du frowned in thought.

He has no impression of the fact that the door was not closed, but logically speaking, it is impossible for him to go out without closing the door.But if the door is closed, it is impossible to explain how Pei Zhao appeared in his house out of thin air.

Could it be that he left in such a hurry that he forgot to close the door?

The young policeman looked at Shen Du, then at Pei Zhao, confused by the two of them.

"Who is this.."

Pei Zhao straightened out his chest, walked neatly in front of the policeman, bowed slightly, and extended his right hand politely.

"Hello Mr. Police, I'm Pei Zhao."

"Pei Zhao?" Isn't Pei Zhao the one who was reported missing just now?The young policeman wondered, "What the hell is going on? Didn't you disappear?"

Pei Zhao pretended not to know, and said blankly: "Missing? I think there may be some misunderstanding."

"..Ah this?"

-

The young policeman brought Shen Du and Pei Zhao back to the police station together. Pei Zhao's cell phone shut down automatically because it ran out of power, so he temporarily borrowed a charger from the policeman and found a corner to charge it.

While waiting for Ding Zishen to arrive with Pei's father and mother, Pei Zhao was called into the house by the police for questioning. After confirming that there was no problem, he reprimanded him with a straight face.

"You're such an adult, no matter what happens in the future, you must remember to inform your family and don't let them worry about you." The policeman wrote the record, turned the paper around, and pointed to the lower right corner, "Sign here, and You can go out and wait."

"Thank you, I'm really sorry." Pei Zhao signed his name neatly, and Pei Zhao couldn't remember how many times he said sorry tonight, and how many times he bowed.

Rubbing the corners of his mouth that had stiffened from laughing, he went out of the office, the benches in the corridor were empty, Pei Zhao looked around but did not see Shen Du's figure.

The door at the end of the corridor was pushed open by the person who came in, and the moment it closed, Pei Zhao saw a familiar figure from the back through the narrow gap.

Shen Du walked to the trash can, groped and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pants pocket, opened it and found that there was just the last one left.

Pulling out the cigarette and pinching it between his fingers, the cigarette case crumpled up and drew a parabola in the air, and it was thrown into the trash can accurately.

He took out the lighter from the other pocket, flipped off the metal cover with his thumb, pressed the flint, the lighter made a sting, and Shen Du lowered his head to light the cigarette.

He lowered his head and just took a few breaths, when he was bumped inexplicably behind him, Shen Du thought he was blocking someone's way, subconsciously said sorry, and then moved to the side.

Turning his head and looking back, Pei Zhao was staring at the cigarette in his hand.

Pei Zhao sniffed, turned his head and coughed lightly.

Holding the middle of the cigarette butt, Shen Du extinguished the cigarette that he hadn't had time to take a few puffs, and threw it into the circular groove above the lid of the trash can.

Half of the white cigarette lay among the many yellow butts, which was particularly conspicuous.

Turning his head to exhale the smoke from his mouth, Shen Du asked.

"Is it over inside?"

"Yes." Pei Zhao nodded.

Shen Du's lips moved, as if words came to his mouth and were swallowed by Sheng Sheng.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Du still asked, "Where have you been these few days? Why did you come to my house?"

There was some reproach in Shen Du's tone.

In his eyes, Pei Zhao should be the kind of person who would walk around the downstairs of his house when passing by.

"I dropped my mobile phone at your house, and I just stopped by to pick it up. I didn't expect that you were not at home, so I went in on my own." With an apologetic smile on his face, Pei Zhao added, "I'm sorry!"

Shen Du was surprised by Pei Zhao's sudden apology. After seeing him for just a few days, the proud young master seemed to be a different person.

Pei Zhao didn't notice Shen Du's shocked expression, and fiddled with the bow tie around his neck.

When I was at Shen Du's house just now, I was too impatient, grabbed the bow tie and wrapped it around my neck, the tie was crooked and uncomfortable, Pei Zhao turned the bow tie to the front, looked down hard, but still couldn't open it.

He couldn't take it off after pulling it several times with his hands, Pei Zhao was so strangled that he couldn't breathe, so he raised his neck and asked Shen Du for help.

"Did I entangle this thing to death? You quickly help me take it off."

The buttons on the top of the shirt were open at will, and the collarbone under the slender neck was clearly defined. With his neck held high, Pei Zhao hooked his fingers around the thin rope around his neck, and took the initiative to get under Shen Du's eyelids.

Shen Du turned his head and looked around, not even a police dog could be seen in the courtyard in front of the police station.

Pei Zhao... is he asking for help?

Shen Du hesitated and refused to reach out.

According to Pei Zhao's character, he would rather be strangled to death, how could he ask him for help.

"Shen Du? Hurry up and help me, it's going to make me feel uncomfortable." Pei Zhao pulled down harder, the more tangled the rope behind him, his face turned red.

"Shen Du?" Pei Zhao raised his eyes, only then did he realize that Shen Du's expression was a little strange.

Shocked, but with some inquiry.

Shen Du pursed his lips, and finally took a step forward, taking the tie from Pei Zhao.

"Don't move."

The black ribbon was wrapped around the fair neck, like an exquisite gift box in a festival, waiting for the owner to open it.

The faint fragrance of shower gel penetrated into the nostrils, and Shen Du's fingering became more and more flustered, and the vibrating Adam's apple in the corner of his vision attracted more attention than the knot at hand.

The knot wrapped in the bayonet seemed to be cast by magic, and kept jumping between the fingers to escape, but refused to be caught by Shen Du.

Pei Zhao held his head and neck a little sore, kicked the stones aside in frustration, and frowned, looking a little frustrated.

"Shen Du, can you do it?"

A black line was drawn across his face, and Shen Du was at a loss for words.

"Don't move around all the time."

Forcing himself to fix his eyes on the knot, Shendu's Adam's apple rolled, and he held his breath and seriously wrestled with the knot in his hand.

"I didn't move." Pei Zhao muttered dissatisfiedly, and stood there honestly.

The end of the knot was originally a delicate buckle, and I don't know how Pei Zhao tied it, but the rope got stuck in the buckle, no wonder it couldn't be untied no matter how hard I tried.

"It's entangled, and I can't open it." Shen Du's nails were neatly manicured, and it was difficult to pinch the tie that was stuck in the clasp.

Pei Zhao's face turned red from being strangled by the bow tie, his supple brows were tightly knit together, his long eyelashes blinked flickeringly, his breathing was rapid and restless.

"Don't move around." Shen Du sighed, holding the knot with both hands, and moved his face closer.

Pei Zhao was taken aback by Shen Du's actions, subconsciously took a step back, and asked nervously, "What are you doing?"

"Bite off." Shen Du looked indifferent, "Do you understand? If you don't understand, just take it with you."

Shen Du let go of his hand, turned around and wanted to go outside.

"Excuse me." Pei Zhao frowned. "Be careful, don't bite my neck."

"There are so many things." Shen Du looked at Pei Zhao in front of him, and unconsciously thought of his little ancestor at home.

It's as difficult to serve as the one in front of you.

Pei Zhao grabbed Shen Du's sleeve and took the initiative to lean his neck up.

"Bite, bite, I'm about to be strangled to death."

Shen Du turned around helplessly, pulled out his hand in his pocket, pinched the two ends of the knot with his thumb and forefinger, spread the other three fingers, and stuck them to Pei Zhao's neck to prevent his hands from trembling without effort.

Turning his head and slowly approaching Pei Zhao's neck, Shen Du opened his teeth and bit the buckle.

Getting along day and night these few days made Pei Zhao get used to Shen Du's existence, that's why he subconsciously asked Shen Du for help just now.

No wonder Shen Du looked a little strange when Pei Zhao spoke just now.

The distance between the two of them was almost close to each other, making Pei Zhao's breathing a little disordered.The warm breath sprayed on the side of the neck, even if Pei Zhao wanted to regret it now, it was too late, so he could only raise his hands and rest on Shen Du's chest.

Shen Du held his breath, trying to ignore the large white neck in front of him, and concentrated on grabbing the buckle with his teeth. After a few attempts, he found that the small buckle seemed to have two feet, and it could always slip through the gap between the teeth smoothly. .

The longer it took to unbutton the button, the more torture it would be for the two of them. Shen Du gritted his teeth and took a step forward. The tip of his nose rested on the side of Pei Zhao's neck. His tongue hooked the buckle and sent it down his teeth, biting hard.

With a click, the clasp collapsed in his mouth.

Shen Du held the bow tie he had just removed, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Pei Zhao standing opposite him, who was pink from his neck to his cheeks.

Like a small boiled crab.

"Cough cough! Cough cough!"

A coughing sound broke the awkward atmosphere, and Pei Zhao, who was standing aside and touching his neck, shivered suddenly as if someone caught him doing something wrong.

The two looked towards the source of the sound together, only to see three familiar faces standing not far away.

Ding Zi looked deeply at the sky, Ge Qiu looked at the ground, Pei Yi beside him had a dark face, shaking his head angrily, his eyes rolled around, not knowing where to land.

"Cough." Shen Du coughed lightly, and stepped back.

Pei Zhao touched the neck where he was able to break free, but he didn't know that even the tips of his ears were smelling pink.

Ding Zishen walked unsteadily to Shen Du's side, tiptoed and provocatively bumped him on the shoulder.

Shen Du gave him a sideways look with a cold face.

"Okay, it's quite deep?" Ding Zishen gave a thumbs up and put it in front of Shen Du's eyes, "Looking at how anxious you are these days, being a designer is useless, you should be the movie king! "

"He's really not at my house, and we just met." Shen Du frowned and explained.

"Tut tsk tsk." Ding Zi shook his head deeply. "If you believe me again, I'm a fool."

If it had been 10 minutes ago, Ding Zishen might still have hesitated and wondered whether Shen Du was telling the truth.

Now, even if Shen Du said that he was going to marry Pei Zhao in situ, he would immediately go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and recite it.

"In broad daylight, brighten the world, show affection in front of future father-in-law and mother-in-law, awesome! Really awesome!" Ding Zishen stood next to Shen Du as if he was talking about stand-up comedy.

Shen Du took a deep look at Ding Zi, and asked with a half smile, "Want to die?"

Pei Zhao didn't pay attention to Ding Zishen's words, and focused all his attention on his parents. He thought he would never see them again in his life.

"Dad, Mom." Pei Zhao felt sore, and stepped forward to hug Ge Qiu.

"You..." Pei Yi widened his eyes, and was about to speak when Ge Qiu pulled him aside.

"Let's wait in the car first, and come to us after you finish your work."

After finishing speaking, Ge Qiu meaningfully glanced at Shen Du who was standing not far away.

"No need, I'll just give him a call when I get back." Pei Zhao shook his head as he turned the cold back of his hand against his cheek to cool down.

He needs to quiet his mind now, there is too much information, and he doesn't know how to explain it to Shen Du for a while.

"Where have you been these few days? Why didn't you answer the phone?" Ge Qiu raised his face for the first time to talk to Pei Zhao, and his stern tone was more concerned.

"The phone is out of battery." Pei Zhao pursed his lips, thinking about how to use the simplest way to describe the bizarre experience of the past few days, "I'm staying at a friend's house these days."

Pei Zhao didn't lie when he said this, he did live in Shen Du's house.

Pei Yi, who was standing aside with his hands behind his back, was so angry that his nose was not his nose, his face was not his face. Hearing Pei Zhao's explanation, smoke was coming from the top of his head.

"Since you have the ability to go out through the window, why do you come back? I think he is so capable, you just let him go out and fend for himself." Pei Yi trembled with anger when he thought of the scene he saw when he came here just now.

When Pei Zhao was in junior high school, he made it clear that he liked boys.

Regarding this matter, Ge Qiu has seen a lot in the circle, and his attitude is more open.

After having a long talk with Pei Zhaoche all night, Ge Qiu told him not to rush to express his thoughts.

After all, children at that age have just begun to grow emotionally, and it takes a long time to settle.

Moreover, their views on many things are relatively shallow, and they are easily influenced by novel things from the outside world.

"No matter when and where, regardless of gender, you only need to remember one thing." Ge Qiu educated Pei Zhao, "Respect others and love yourself."

The young Pei Zhao nodded seriously.

Ge Qiu can accept it, but it doesn't mean that Pei Yi can also accept it. This incident always seems to be a knot in the heart of the father and son, and they often use other reasons to vent it.

Knowing that his son likes boys is one thing, but seeing Pei Zhao intimate with a man is another.

With no place to vent his anger, Pei Yi walked towards Shen Du with the low air pressure all over his body.

Seeing Pei Yi walking towards him from a distance, Shen Du stood up straight and greeted him respectfully.

"Hello, Uncle Pei."

Pei Yi nodded, his lips opened and closed again, as if he wanted to speak, but he didn't know where to start.You can't spread your anger on your own children and spread it on other people's children.

Looking around, Pei Yi straightened his waist and looked Shen Du up and down.

Shen Du's deep facial features don't seem to fit the characteristics of Asians. The browbones on the eye sockets are three-dimensional, the eye sockets are deep, and the bridge of the nose is high. If you pick any part and put it on the face of a European, it will not feel disobedient. and.

But with such sharp features on this face, there is a kind of Asian softness.

Taking his eyes away from Shen Du's face, Pei Yi suffered from an occupational disease and began to inspect Shen Du's clothes.

The slender figure is slightly taller than Pei Zhao, and he is wearing a long black coat.

Except for the beige sweater inside, Pei Yi could tell at a glance that the brand was of high value, Shen Du's coat and trousers did not have any traces of the brand.

The size of these two pieces is very suitable for Shen Du's figure, they look more like custom-made models, and the style is more like the handwriting of a young designer.

Pei Yi thought for a long time, but he couldn't remember the name of the young designer.

Ge Qiu was in charge of the design, and Pei Yi had little contact with it, so the impression was not too deep.

After evaluating Shen Du in his heart, Pei Yi spoke coldly.

"How long have you known Pei Zhao?"

Shen Du replied: "We are classmates in high school."

We've been together since high school?Pei Yi's eyes widened in disbelief, and he looked at Shen Du.

"Hmph." I didn't expect that brat Pei Zhao to be affectionate and have a strict mouth.

Shen Du didn't know why, so he could only purse his lips and remain silent, acting neither humble nor overbearing.

Pei Yi nodded and continued: "I heard from Pei Zhao that he has been staying at your house for the past few days."

Although what Pei Zhaoyuan said was living in a friend's house, Pei Yi has already acquiesced that the so-called friend in Pei Zhao's mouth is Shen Du.

With the tails of his eyes raised, Shen Du looked up from a distance, and Pei Zhao, who was being pulled by Ge Qiu to speak, went around several times in his mind, and finally agreed.

"Ah."

Hearing the answer with his own ears, Pei Yi's head started to smoke again.

"Do your parents know about this?" Pei Yi changed the subject and fixed his eyes on Shen Du.

?

Shen Du raised his eyebrows, realizing that Pei Yi seemed to have misunderstood something.

"My parents have lived abroad all year round, and I'm the only one here." Shen Du lowered his head, with a standard elementary school student's posture of being scolded, and took the blame on himself in a muffled voice.

"The two of you are already adults, and you are not children. You should be responsible for your actions. Even if there are some things you don't want to tell your family, you shouldn't just play and disappear without saying a word, and let so many people surround you. .”

Pei Yi frowned, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, and the volume also rose unconsciously, until Ge Qiu walked behind him and pushed him, then he stopped talking.

"Old Pei!"

Pei Yi was about to get emotional when he was interrupted by Ge Qiu who came up behind him.

"Hello, Auntie." Seeing the person he admired since childhood, Shen Du felt a little more nervous.

Ge Qiu wore a thick pure white woolen coat over the cyan-colored platycodon long skirt, which looked calm and playful at this age without being too rigid.

The slightly curled curly hair is scattered on both sides of the shoulders, and the soft facial features make people know that he is a gentle and easy-going person at a glance.

Compared with Pei Yi, Pei Zhao's appearance is more like Ge Qiu's. His facial features are less feminine and more masculine. His watery eyes are exactly the same. No matter how many winds and snows he has gone through, they are still clear and agile.

"You are Zhaozhao's friend?" Ge Qiu felt that Shen Du in front of him looked familiar.

Shen Du likes to keep a low profile and rarely shows up in public, so it's not an exaggeration for Ge Qiu not to recognize him.

"Yeah." Shen Du nodded, "I'm really sorry, I made uncle and aunt worry these days."

"Zhaozhao has caused you trouble these days." Seeing Shen Du's clothes, Ge Qiu showed some approval.

"No trouble." Shen Du said with a smile.

"Why don't you go home with us later, Auntie will cook something for you." Ge Qiu waved to Ding Zishen who was standing beside him, "Xiao Shen is here too."

Ding Zishen was already familiar with the matter of going to Pei's house to eat and drink, so he stupidly tiptoed to grab Shen Du's shoulder.

"No need, Mom, Shen Du is quite busy, and he has things to do when he goes back." Pei Zhao was not surprised by Ge Qiu's enthusiasm, but he didn't want Shen Du to go to his house for dinner.

Pei Zhao was grateful for Shen Du's care these past few days, but it didn't mean that he forgave Shen Du.

It can only be said that the relationship between two people has transitioned from old age and death to strangers.As for Shen Du's kindness, Pei Zhao will repay him in other ways in the future.

Shen Du clenched his fists to cover up the smile at the corner of his mouth, tilted his head and coughed lightly.

He was not surprised by Pei Zhao's attitude at all, this was the original Pei Zhao.

With a smile in the corner of Shen Du's eyes, he glanced at Pei Zhao, retracted his gaze and said to Ge Qiu: "As a junior, you should visit your uncles and aunts with gifts. I won't bother you this time."

"What's the trouble with having a meal? It won't delay you for long, so don't be polite to Auntie." Ge Qiu pulled Pei Yi out and pushed Pei Zhao with his elbow.

"Go and drive your dad's car over, what are you doing standing there?"

Pei Zhao squinted his eyes suspiciously, always feeling as if something was weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.I had no choice but to take the car keys from Pei Yi, and nodded in agreement.

The group divided into two cars, Ding Zishen drove Pei Yi and Ge Qiu, and Pei Zhao drove Pei Yi's car to Shendu.

The car door opened, Shen Du bent down and sat in the co-pilot, and stuck the seat belt into the groove.

"When you get to my house, try to eat more and talk less." Pei Zhao started the car and told Shen Du.

Shen Du's eyes darkened, and he said, "I should at least know where you have been these few days? Otherwise, when uncles and aunts ask, how should I answer?"

"When they ask, I will naturally answer, you just need to eat silently." Pei Zhao had already given up the idea of ​​confessing to Shen Du. No one would believe such a thing.

"Whether you're sad because of a broken relationship, or you have a new target, as a scapegoat, I think I should have the right to know the truth."

Shen Du looked at Pei Zhao's side face, his complexion was clear, his expression was natural, his eyes were piercing, there were no dark circles under his eyes from staying up all night, and no signs of crying, except that his hair looked messy, There is nothing different from before.

It must have been quite moist these days.

If he hadn't gone to heal because of a broken relationship, where would he go these days?

Shen Du glanced at Pei Zhao's neck without a trace, and then naturally moved his gaze out of the window.

"No need." Pei Zhao refused.

Shen Du ticked the corner of his mouth, and said in a disdainful tone: "Is this your attitude of asking for help?"

Pei Zhao knew he was in the wrong, but he would not easily confess to Shen Du. There are some things that he has not figured out yet, so it is better to speak slowly.

"I owe you a favor for this matter, and I will definitely make it up to you when I have a chance in the future."

Pei Zhao has always kept his word.

Shen Du propped his elbows on the edge of the car window, his slender fingers kept playing with the pack of cigarettes he had snatched from Ding Zishen before getting in the car.

"Oh?" Shen Du raised his eyebrows, "How do you want to make it up?"

The small cigarette case was twirled and thrown into the air, caught, spun upwards, and caught again.

The loose cuffs reveal a wrist with a healthy complexion. The raised wrist bones look strong and powerful, and the blue blood vessels are buried under the skin, beating at the same frequency as Pei Zhao's heartbeat.

Pei Zhao's Adam's apple rolled uncomfortably, and the hand holding the steering wheel also tightened unconsciously.

Seeing Shen Du's hands, he could always think of when he was a cat a few days ago, these hands had lightly poked his forehead and rubbed wantonly on his soft belly.

There is also Shen Du's gentle gaze, and a face that is completely different from when he was outside.

There was a sense of laziness in his body, and the desire to be rubbed by Shen Du became more and more intense in his heart. He even felt that a big light gray, fluffy tail had grown behind him, spreading towards Shen Du's direction, circling around him wrist.

The signal light turned from green to red, Pei Zhao slammed on the accelerator, and pressed the button to lower the surrounding windows.

He probably needs to calm down.

Shen Du was pulled back to his seat by the seat belt, looked at the cold winter of March [-]th outside the car window, and turned his suspicious eyes to Pei Zhao.

What happened to this ancestor?

Pei Zhao said nothing, and drove the car all the way home with a sullen face. When the car arrived, his expression eased a little.

Pushing open the car door, two people with red noses and looks about to be torn apart by the wind stepped out of the car with stiff expressions.

"Isn't it, Boss? Old Pei is crazy and you are going crazy too?"

Ding Zishen changed his address to Shen Du every day, and it was quite easy to call him.

Shen Du rubbed his cold nose, and whispered in Ding Zishen's ear: "When we eat later, please help warm up the scene."

"Hey, it's up to you to say, I'll definitely praise you to the sky and wrap you around me." Ding Zishen thought that Shen Du was nervous when he saw his father-in-law and mother-in-law for the first time, so he patted his chest without shame.

Taking out something from the trunk, Shen Du followed Pei Zhao into the room.

"How did you get here?"

Ge Qiu has already changed into a suit of more comfortable clothes, with an apron hanging around his neck, and his hands are knotted behind his back.

Putting the things in his hand on the ground, Shen Du put on the prepared slippers.

"I passed by a store just now and it looked pretty good, so I went in and bought some things. It's my first time to visit with empty hands. I'm really embarrassed." Shen Du said, "The preparations were rather hasty, and I hope uncles and aunts don't mind."

Pei Yi was sitting on the sofa, holding a fashion magazine in his hand, his heavy eyes rested on the bridge of his nose, but he didn't glance at the magazine at all.

"You kid, I told you that you don't need to buy anything. Hurry up and get in the house to warm up. I'll cook something for you." The ingredients in the refrigerator are all fresh, and Ge Qiu's cooking skills are superb. Disaster.

"Mom, let me help you." Pei Zhao put on her slippers, walked behind Ge Qiu, and bent down to help her tie the straps of her apron.

"You?" Ge Qiu looked at Pei Zhao incredulously, "Why did our young master change his sex today? Is the sun coming out from the west?"

Pei Zhao opened his mouth from his clothes, and stretched out his hands after dinner.In Ge Qiu's eyes, he is a handicapped tenth level of self-care ability, who does not help the soy sauce bottle when it is poured in front of him, and today he even took the initiative to say that he was going to the kitchen.

"Can you stop thinking that your own son is so useless?" Before, Pei Zhao really wouldn't do this kind of thing, but after this experience, he always wanted to stick behind Ge Qiu.

Even Pei Yi's stern reprimand was extremely pleasing to the ear.

"Okay, it's enough to have your dad's help, don't make trouble with me." Ge Qiu pushed Pei Zhao away, and called Pei Yi over, "Go and accompany...accompany..."

After a long time, Ge Qiu still didn't know Shen Du's name.

"Auntie, my name is Shen Du." After standing by the fireplace for a long time, Shen Du's facial features finally regained consciousness.

"You are Shen Du?" Ge Qiu's eyes lit up, and she finally remembered why she always felt that the young man in front of her was familiar.

Ding Zishen squeezed forward eagerly, knowing that the time had come for Shen Du to need himself, and he must appear in this kind of flattery.

"That's right, auntie, it's him!" Ding Zishen had a happy look on his face, and those who didn't know thought he was Shen Du, "My brother won many awards when he was in school, especially the one that became a hit. This work is actually my brother's graduation project."

"It's a pity that I always talk about you. You are so capable at a young age, and I always want to find a chance to meet you." Ge Qiu said pleasantly, "Pei Zhao is really a kid, and he has kept it from his family for so long. , I don’t know how to bring you back to me earlier.”

I really can't blame Pei Zhao for this matter, everyone around me knows that Pei Zhao and Shen Du are at odds with each other, give them a hundred courage, no one dares to go to Pei Zhao to mention Shen Du, of course he doesn't know about these things .

What's more, Pei Zhao deliberately avoided Shen Du. When eating at home, whenever Ge Qiu mentioned Shen Du's name, Pei Zhao would use the excuse of feeling uncomfortable, put down the dishes, and go back to the room alone.

Ge Qiu has been curious about Shen Du for a long time, and today he finally has the opportunity to meet, so he must have a good chat.

Seeing that the meal was going to fail, Pei Zhao walked to the sofa where Pei Yi was sitting, squatted down and whispered, "Dad, is my mother not going to cook for us?"

Pushing the glasses on the bridge of the nose, Pei Yi said in a low voice, "Order for takeaway, just call your mother's favorite restaurant."

".."

When the takeaway was delivered, Ge Qiu suddenly realized that he had been chatting with Shen Du for too long, so he patted his forehead and hurried to the kitchen to cook some dishes.

"Auntie, don't bother." Shen Du stopped.

"No trouble, just sit and wait for a while, I'll be ready soon." Ge Qiu was happy today, and while walking to the kitchen with his apron on, he asked Pei Yi to take out the red wine locked in the cabinet.

"Which bottle do you want?" Pei Yi stood in front of the cabinet.

"Just take the bottle that Yao'er wanted to drink secretly before, but you caught him and locked it in the safe." Ge Qiu was overwhelmed by joy, and forgot to change his address for a while.

"Hey hey, Yao'er." Ding Zishen arched Pei Zhao's shoulder fearlessly.

"roll!"

Pei Zhaote admired Ding Zishen's skill in adding fuel to the fire, but he himself didn't know it, he didn't have a little vision, and he grew up so big that no one was beaten to death, so he was considered a fool.

Hearing the name Yao'er, Shen Du suddenly thought of the little boy at home.I don't know if the little boy had a good meal today without his company.

Pei Yi opened the red wine and poured it into a decanter, while Pei Zhao was beside him with a heartbroken face.

"Mom! Didn't you say that this bottle of wine is reserved for the future daughter-in-law?"

The place of origin and the villa of this bottle of red wine are very famous, and the annual production is rare, which is hard to come by.

Pei Zhao has been coveting it for a long time, and failed to succeed several times. He didn't expect to open it so easily today.

"If you don't have a daughter-in-law, it's the same for your son to drink." Ge Qiu responded.

Oh, it turned out to be for me to drink!Pei Zhao held the empty cup and waited anxiously.

Waiting and waiting, he suddenly realized that this sentence seemed a bit wrong.

The son Ge Qiu mentioned doesn't seem to be referring to him, does it?Otherwise, why didn't you take it out and give him a drink earlier?

Turning his head to look at Shen Du who helped unpack the takeaway boxes and set the dishes, Pei Zhao's hair exploded.

"That's right, it doesn't matter whether his son or daughter-in-law is the same! Anyway, we are all one family, aren't we?" Ding Zishen pushed Shen Du with his elbow, and his eyebrows were so raised that he was about to fly out of the sky.

"En." Shen Du bowed his head in agreement, with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"Wait." Pei Zhao put down the cup in his hand, "Did you misunderstand something?"

No wonder he felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong from the very beginning, they probably thought that he and Shen Du had some ulterior secret, right?

"Hey, there's nothing wrong with that."

Ding Zishen walked into the kitchen, helped Ge Qiu bring out the fried dishes, and said to Pei Zhao, "But then again, it's okay for you, Lao Pei, to keep it from your uncles and aunts, and even me, so that's a bit meaningless." , thanks to the fact that we are buddies for more than twenty years."

"No, you..."

Pei Zhao stood up and wanted to explain, but Ge Qiu, who came out of the kitchen after cooking, pressed his shoulders and pressed back to his seat.

"Sit down and eat honestly. You are welcome to come to Xiaoshen, eat more vegetables, and try Auntie's cooking."

Shen Du smiled and picked up the rice bowl with both hands, took the dish that Ge Qiu gave him, and took a sip of the rice.

"Auntie's craftsmanship is really good."

Shen Du's own cooking skills are also good, but because he lives alone, he spends most of his time ordering takeout, or else he's just fooling around. Sometimes when he's busy with work, he doesn't even have time for fooling around.

"Eat more if it tastes good, don't be polite with auntie." Ge Qiu said.

Sitting at the dining table, Pei Zhao felt like an isolated outsider, gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Du who was sitting next to him eating with his head down, and squeezed out two words viciously from between his teeth.

"Shen? Cross?"

Without changing his expression, Shen Du picked up a piece of pure carrot and put it into the bowl in front of Pei Zhao.

"Don't always be picky eaters, eating more carrots is good for your eyes."

The tone is gentle, as if coaxing a kitten who can't eat well.

"Are you courting death?" Pei Zhao gritted his teeth and whispered in Shen Du's ear.

Shen Du turned his head indistinctly, and whispered in Pei Zhao's ear, "If you don't want to continue acting, you can tell the truth to your uncle and aunt right now."

to be honest?How to say?

That's right!I am indeed staying at Shen Du's house these few days!But there is nothing between the two of us, except that I have become a cat.

Listen, does this speak like a human?

Pei Zhao forced the breath back into his stomach, picked up the carrot in the bowl, stuffed it into his mouth without thinking, and chewed it as if he was biting on Shen Du.

It was the first time Ge Qiu saw Pei Zhao take the initiative to eat carrots. If it wasn't for the fact that the sun had already set outside, she would really have to run to the window to see if the sun really came out from the west.

Shen Du smiled like a spring breeze. Seeing that Pei Zhao was "happy" eating, he thoughtfully picked up a piece of carrot and put it in Pei Zhao's bowl.

"Here, let's eat."

Pei Yi looked at the table, Pei Zhao and Shen Du flirted with each other and wanted to have a heart attack,
