He's killing me again

==========================

weekend.

The luxuriously decorated banquet hall, the crowd toasting toasts, is glamorous and lively.

Ning Lan, who was wearing a water blue dress and delicate makeup, was sitting on the sofa, smiling gently, talking to Ning Ci in a low voice: "Are you nervous?"

"Don't be nervous, many of these people are your Uncle He Zhen's business partners, and you may have to deal with them in the future."

She was so comforting, Ning Ci's mood did not ease.

He didn't like this kind of crowded occasion, he just felt oppressed. Fortunately, Ning Lan didn't ask him to go anywhere, he just needed him to sit quietly on the sofa here and watch, but even so, Ning Ci was a little bit discomfort.

He nodded slowly, avoiding the eyes of others looking in their direction.

A seemingly young and beautiful woman, a clean and beautiful boy will always attract the attention of others.

Ning Lan has long been used to this kind of gaze. She was very popular when she was young, and it is the same now. Seeing that Ning Ci is not willing to talk, she thought for a while, "What are you thinking? Didn't you finish your homework?"

"I'll send you back when it's over."

Ning Ci wasn't actually thinking about it, he just didn't like it, but he heard what Ning Lan said, and Ning Lan said that he would bring him to the reception, so he followed. Come on, it can be regarded as a recognition of Ning Lan's identity.

He didn't refute Ning Lan's words, so he hummed in a low voice.

Seeing that he was obedient, Ning Lan smiled: "Then laugh?"

Ning Ci frowned, at least with Ning Lan by his side, he could still feel a little more at ease.

After a while, someone came to chat with Ning Lan. Not long after Ning Lan and He Zhencai got married, Ning Lan seemed to have completely entered the circle.

Ning Lan held up her wine glass and followed them away. Ning Ci was sitting here alone. Although she was wearing a dress that didn't fit very well, she still didn't fit in with this place. In order to ignore the gazes of others as much as possible, Ning Ci opened I installed the learning software and started to write questions.

But I can't calm down, and I still feel those gazes, like thorns.

He closed his eyes, and suddenly remembered what Pei Jin said, everyone is a clown.

Ning Ci was stunned for a moment, it had been more than a week since he saw Pei Jin last time, during this time, he had been very peaceful.

"Ning Ci?" Lu Rang was a little surprised.

Brother Pei hasn't come to class for more than a week, which is considered normal. I don't know if Brother Pei broke up with Ning Ci. Brother Pei didn't mention it. If he didn't mention it, they wouldn't ask. Met Ning Ci.

Unlike Chen Fang, Lu Rang talked a lot, but he was a little bored when he was idle, so he said too much: "Brother Pei is here, have you seen him?"

Ning Ci didn't quite know what the occasion was today, let alone seeing Pei Jin, he didn't even know Pei Jin was there, so he shook his head honestly.

Lu Rang smiled: "Do you know what's going on today?"

Seeing that Ning Ci wears like this, he should be the young master of some family, but even if he is alone, Ning Ci's character is quite normal.

"Today is Brother Pei's father's birthday." Lu Rang said in a calm tone, feeling like he stopped talking halfway.

Ning Ci was stunned.

No wonder, when he came in, there was a happy birthday sign on it. He was too nervous at the time, so he didn't look at it. He only took a quick glance, and only knew that Ning Lan took a very delicate box, saying it was a gift. Give someone a gift.

"Then, happy birthday to Uncle Pei."

Ning Ci didn't know what to say, so he could only maintain basic politeness.

"Don't say that in front of Pei Jin." Lu Rang just said a few more words. Recently, Pei Jin is not in a good mood. Every time he sees them, it's like eating explosives.

He should be regarded as a kind reminder?

After all, Pei Jin didn't say whether he broke up with Ning Ci.

When he said this, Ning Ci could guess that Pei Jin probably didn't have a good relationship with his family, but this had nothing to do with him, and it wasn't something he should care about.

Ning Ci pursed his lips, and Lu Rang didn't plan to stay here any longer, so as not to cause Ning Ci any trouble later, he was about to leave when the host began to speak on stage.

A whole lot of crap.

What is the scene of celebrating Mr. Pei Yuan's happy birthday.

When the lights dimmed, Ning Ci subconsciously glanced at the direction Ning Lan had just left. The person was no longer there, and he didn't know where he went.

"Then finally, let's invite Mr. Pei Yuan..."

Rich people like to do things on this kind of scene.

"and many more."

The familiar languid tone.

Ning Ci froze for a moment and raised his eyes.

Pei Jin was dressed in black. It didn't look like a birthday suit, but rather a suit like a funeral. The lights were just above his head, and the crowd was quiet, and he was the center.

Snatching the microphone from the host very politely, Pei Jin said with a serious expression, "Welcome everyone to my father, Mr. Pei Yuan's birthday party." Like a dutiful son, "I will present a song to my father, happy birthday."

After he finished speaking, several waiters with pained faces brought up a pure white piano.

The crowd gradually started talking.

The corner of his mouth froze on the way he wanted to leave: "It's over."

Ning Ci was puzzled.

Lu Rang: "Brother Pei has a lot of fun."

Ning Ci: "?"

Ning Ci thought that he had misunderstood the meaning of Lu Rang. Didn't Pei Jin play happy birthday to his father on purpose?

However, the second the music started, he knew something was wrong.

What Pei Jin played was not "Happy Birthday", but funeral music.

How bad is this relationship?

Ning Ci was already in a daze, while the other guests were almost flustered.

They knew that the heir of the Pei family had a bad temper. Pei Jin's biological mother had passed away a long time ago, and Pei Yuan's reputation in the circle was actually not very good. Since his wife passed away, he didn't hide it much. He likes men and changes men every now and then. The object is always taken out to play. At that time, his wife was hardly seen by anyone except for marriage.

But no one thought that his son could do this at Lao Tzu's birthday party.

Pei Jin played quite sadly, and the atmosphere in the originally cheerful place became weird.

Until Pei Yuan rushed onto the stage angrily.

Pei Jin didn't stop, and smiled coldly at Pei Yuan: "Happy birthday, father."

Pei Yuan was about to die of anger. He was locked in the lounge by Pei Jin, and he found the door broken by the bodyguards. As soon as he came out, he was punished like this.

But he couldn't lose face in front of so many guests. Although the Pei family had a great career, at most it was because of this kind of thing that everyone talked about it for a few days.

"You come down with me."

Pei Yuan hooked the corners of his lips, not intending to move at all, and rarely smiled gently at Pei Yuan: "It's not over yet."

Pei Jin can still focus on two things, and the song is nearing the end, becoming more and more sad, as if mourning, Pei Jin stared at Pei Yuan and curled his lips, "Did you forget that today is also my mother's death day."

It is ironic that the birthday and death day are on the same day.

As soon as he mentioned this, Pei Yuan froze, which was also the reason why he didn't celebrate his birthday for so many years.

Listening to the increasingly mournful song, Pei Yuan's face turned livid. Before he couldn't help it, Pei Jin pressed the last note and stood up neatly. He was a little taller than Pei Yuan, and looked down at him, condescending The moment they passed each other, Pei Jin sarcastically said, "Father, happy birthday."

"A birthday present for you, I hope you like it."

Pei Yuan: "You..."

The ballroom seems to have been pressed for silence.

After a few seconds, someone clapped their hands in bewilderment, clapped them, and put them down again.

"I'm so sorry……"

Pei Yuan and the host immediately started to maintain the scene.

Like a farce.

Ning Ci's eyes fell on Pei Jin involuntarily.

The light was still not fully turned on, only a little light could be seen in the corner, and Pei Jin's figure disappeared into the darkness without turning his head once.

It looks a little lonely.

It's different from the usual Pei Jin.

But think about it, it seems that only people like Pei Jin can do this kind of thing.
