"This is the wife book I have saved since I was a child."

Pei Xu's body was slightly stiff, and he slowly raised his hand to press on the back of his head, his five fingers running through the soft black hair, his movements were very gentle, but there was an invisible sense of control.

This is a very dangerous position, as long as his palm is lightly applied, Qiao Nan will be forced to cling to him, unable to move.

And maybe struggling and crying out of panic and fear.

Pei Xu stared at him deeply, his Adam's apple rolled slowly, but Qiao Nan didn't notice it.

He always liked such intimate gestures.

After a long time, Pei Xu's palm moved down the rounded back of his head, landed on his back, and patted him lightly a few times, signaling him to get up: "Don't be angry."

Not angry words.

But Qiao Nan didn't make any excuses, he sat up and said, "I'm going to take a shower."

He rushed upstairs in three steps at a time. Pei Xu sat where he was, took a deep breath and calmed down for a while, and then walked upstairs slowly.

At the corner of the stairs, he bumped into Zhou Ruo who was going downstairs.

Zhou Ruo glanced at the direction of his room, and said with a smile, "Nannan still likes to cling to you as much as she did when she was a child." She shook her head, "You're such a grown-up person, and you're still like a child."

Pei Xu's heart sank suddenly, then he stopped, and answered calmly: "It's been more than ten years, and I'm used to it."

"Yeah, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye..." Zhou Ruo said with some emotion: "Your Uncle Qiao and I were busy with work in the early years, and we didn't have much energy to devote to Nannan. Uncle Wang and the babysitter are responsible for everything big and small. I'm worrying." She made a gesture: "I remember that Nan Nan was only a little older at that time, every time I went home, he would trot and throw himself into my arms to call mother, and act like a baby and pester me to spend more time with him... The next time I was about to leave, although he wouldn't cry, he would look at me eagerly and ask my mother when she would come back next time." Her eyes were slightly red: "Then I don't know when, he will I stopped chasing and asking when my mother came home, and I didn't act like a baby with me anymore..."

"From childhood to adulthood, he has always been more sensible than other children... I always want to come back to spend more time with him after I have been busy for a while, but when I want to come back, I will always be caught up in various things... In the blink of an eye, he was already this big."

"Nan Nan will understand." Pei Xu took out a handkerchief and handed it to her.

Zhou Ruo took it, lowered her head and wiped her tears, shook her head and said: "It's different, many things missed that time, and it will be difficult to make up for it." She looked at Pei Xu and smiled: "These years I have done the most The right thing is that I took you back to Qiao's house at that time. Thanks to you for taking care of him for me all these years. "

Pei Xu remained silent for a while, focusing his eyes on the bridge of her nose, avoiding staring at her: "If you hadn't come forward to deal with my parents' funeral, I don't know what I would have fallen into. I have always regarded you as Mother, Nannan is my younger brother, I should take care of him."

"Anyway, I still want to thank you." Zhou Ruo calmed down his broken emotions for a moment, patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and continued to walk downstairs.

Pei Xu turned sideways and watched her back.

In his memory, Zhou Ruo has always been the strong woman who took care of his parents' funeral for him.She is undoubtedly a powerful, elegant and beautiful woman, and the years have treated her very favorably, and have not left too many marks on her body.

But at this moment, he suddenly realized that Zhou Ruo was getting old before they both realized it.

Pei Xuding stood there for a long time before turning around and walking back to the bedroom with heavy steps.

There was the sound of splashing water in the bathroom, obviously Qiao Nan was taking a shower.

The sound of water disturbed people, Pei Xu pushed open the sliding door and went to the balcony, looking at the deep night outside, he suddenly wanted to smoke.

In fact, he has no habit of smoking. He only smokes one when the desire in his heart is hard to be satisfied.

Strong nicotine can numb the turbulent emotions and let him find peace for a while.

When Qiao Nan came out of the shower, he saw his brother standing on the balcony in a daze.

He approached lightly, jumped on his back, and called in his ear: "Brother!"

The young man who had just bathed was still entangled with fragrant moisture. The fragrance melted into the air and penetrated into Pei Xu's nostrils, making his eyes even darker.

He put one hand in his pocket, twirled his two fingers vigorously, managed to maintain his composure, and patted him with his backhand: "Don't make trouble."

But what the palm touches is not the fabric, but the delicate and smooth skin.

—— Qiao Nan didn't dress properly after taking a shower.

Pei Xu withdrew his hand like an electric shock, closed his eyes forcefully, and said in a deep voice, "Go and get dressed."

His tone was a little heavy, and he seemed a little stern.

"Why are you so fierce?"

Qiao Nan let go of him resentfully, and while going to the closet to find pajamas, he muttered, "I'm wearing a bath towel, and there's no one else."

Pei Xu never turned to look at him.

It was getting late, Qiao Nan got into the quilt after changing his pajamas, he didn't hold any grudges, turned off the headlights and said "I'm asleep, good night" to Pei Xu, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

His sleep quality has always been very good, and he almost fell asleep with his eyes closed.

Pei Xu stayed on the balcony for a long time before entering the room.

He walked to the bed and looked down at Qiao Nan, but Zhou Ruo's slightly red eyes flashed in his mind.

A heavy sense of guilt overwhelmed him like a tidal wave, making him unable to breathe.

Unable to face Qiao Nan anymore, he took out the cigarette case from the bedside table and went to the balcony again.

The thin smoke lingered all night, and Pei Xu stayed up all night.

The next day was Qiao Nan's birthday party.

As the protagonist of the banquet, he was called up early in the morning to do styling to prepare for the upcoming banquet.

When it was finally packed, it was already noon.

The banquet suit was chosen by Pei Xu.

A dark blue and near-black notch lapel casual suit jacket with the same color suit pants, a light blue shirt inside, no bow tie or tie on the neckline of the shirt, the two buttons on the top of the collar are unbuttoned, and the stand-up collar of the shirt is open to both sides at will , showing a bit of casualness, without being rude because it is not formal enough.

Matching the style of the suit, Qiao Nan's slightly long bangs were not combed with hairspray, but were treated in threes and sevens, and slightly parted towards the sides of the forehead, half-covering the full forehead and beautiful eyebrows.

Qiao Nan looked in the mirror and affirmed his brother's taste.

Pinning a diamond brooch of the same style as Pei Xu's on the neckline, Qiao Nan asked Pei Xu, "Where's my brother?"

"It seems to have gone to the lobby on the first floor." The designer said.

Qiao Nan stomped downstairs and looked around before finding Pei Xu who was still confirming the process of the banquet.

He leaned forward, forced his face between Pei Xu and the tablet, and asked happily, "Where's my gift?"

Pei Xu put down the tablet helplessly, and pointed to the password box that was carefully placed in the corner of the hall: "It's over there."

Qiao Nan couldn't wait to open the birthday present.

The painting has been mounted in a picture frame, and the four corners of the picture frame are protected with anti-collision materials, and the bottom is covered with dark red velvet cloth.

Qiao Nan wanted to take out the painting by himself, but was afraid of damaging it, so he called two servants to come over to help, and then carefully moved the painting out.

He admired it fascinatedly for a while, and he was very happy: "I have to hang it up, and let everyone see it later!"

Pei Xu looked helpless, and could only watch him happily pick a place to hang the painting.

The birthday party was in the evening, but since noon, relatives and friends of the Qiao family and the Zhou family have arrived one after another.

Qiao Nan and Pei Xu received the guests together with Qiao Shi'an and his wife, laughing so that the muscles on their faces became stiff and sore.

It wasn't until after the dinner officially started that Qiao Nan finally found a gap to breathe, and sneaked upstairs to find Qian Chuan and the others.

But when I went upstairs, I was in vain. When I asked Uncle Wang, I realized that those people had all gone to visit his birthday present.

Qiao Nan went downstairs to look for someone again, and when he got there, he saw that Qian Chuan's face was almost stuck to the glass of the picture frame, and he was still tsk-tsk, and he didn't know what he was sighing.He quickly pulled people away: "What are you doing so close? When did you know how to draw?"

Qian Chuan was full of jealousy, and said sourly: "I don't know how to paint, but I know this." He squeezed his thumb and index finger and middle finger together, making a "money" gesture.

At this moment, Xiao Rang interjected, "Is this the real work?"

"Of course it's true, why should I put up a fake one?" Qiao Nan was puzzled, and then couldn't help showing off: "This is my birthday present from my brother."

Qian Chuan's face became more and more ugly, and he even started to hate the rich: "Why doesn't my brother learn from your brother?!"

Qiao Nan was stared at by him with hatred for the rich, and he was even more inexplicable: "I remember last year for your birthday, your brother gave you a Porsche 918." He patted Qian Chuan on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Being a human being should not Too competitive."

Qian Chuan was so angry that his face was distorted: "You can buy ten Porsche 918s for just one painting of yours."

Qiao Nan was taken aback: "So expensive?"

He remembers that the highest price for one of Lai Ying's paintings was 500 million, and the price of other paintings ranged from 2000 million to 5000 million.

Seeing that he didn't even know, Xiao Rang pointed at him and asked, "Didn't your brother tell you the price?"

Joan shook his head.

Qian Chuan couldn't help but interjected: "An insider broke the news about this painting, and it was also on the hot search. It is said that it was originally going to be auctioned, and the starting price was 5000 million. But a big guy found Lai through his connections. Ying, I made a default decision directly. Do you know what the default price is when it comes out?"

Before he could answer, Qian Chuan said, "1000 million to [-] million. Because of this painting, Lai Ying's worth has now reached the level of hundreds of millions."

"Your brother has spent a lot of money." Qian Chuan was beyond recognition with jealousy: "My parents are not willing to spend [-] million for me."

Qiao Nan blinked his eyes, and pretended to be "ah", "But no matter how envious you are, he is also my brother."

Before Qian Chuan could get angry, he said "I'll go find my brother" and ran away.

In the corner of the hall, Pei Xu was talking with Qiao Nan's second and third aunts.

Although Pei Xu is only an adopted son, Qiao Shi'an and his wife have not been stingy about cultivating him these years. According to Qiao Shi'an, he originally wanted Pei Xu to help Qiao's after graduation, but Pei Xu is more promising than everyone imagined. Instead of relying on Qiao's group, he entered the drone industry that Qiao's was not involved in at all, and made a fortune by himself.

Young people with outstanding abilities are welcome wherever they go.

Qiao Nan was still young, and the aunts who had nowhere to vent their enthusiasm for being a matchmaker focused their attention on Pei Xu, who was in his prime.Pei Xu has been dealing with it for a long time because of his affection.

It wasn't until Qiao Nan rushed over suddenly, pulled Pei Xu and ran out of the yard, that he was finally rescued.

Seeing the young man running with his bangs scattered, Pei Xu raised his hand and pushed his forehead to one side: "What's wrong?"

"Qian Chuan said that the default price of "Wildfire" is 1000 million."

Pei Xu gave a light "Oh": "Although I entrusted some connections, many people wanted Lai Ying's paintings, so I raised the price up."

"Why not wait for the auction?"

After "Wildfire" came out, many people guessed the final auction price, but none of them exceeded [-] million yuan.

When Pei Xu was in graduate school, he founded Xunan Technology by himself without borrowing from Qiao's, and it was not easy at the beginning.It was not until the domestic market was developed in the past two or three years that Sunan Technology quickly occupied 80.00% of the entire market, and then it was able to charge forward.

Although Qiao Nan didn't know exactly how much money Xu Nan Technology had made in the past few years, a working capital of [-] million yuan was definitely not a small amount for his brother.

"The auction was originally scheduled for June [-]th, and it may not be in time for your birthday after the auction process is completed." Pei Xu didn't think there was anything wrong, and explained in a slow voice: "It's not a surprise if the birthday present is late."

Qiao Nan felt sorry for his brother's wallet, but couldn't help being happy because he valued it.

The smile on the corner of his mouth could hardly be suppressed, and finally he said seriously: "This is my favorite birthday present."

After talking about something that came to mind, he took out all the bank cards in his pocket and stuffed them to him: "These are all pocket money given by relatives and elders, and I give it all to you. I haven't touched the ones my parents gave me before, just Put it in the bedside drawer, and give it to you too. You don’t want your parents’ money, so you can use it when the company’s turnover is tight.”

Naturally, Pei Xu would not use his money, and patted his head with a smile: "Don't worry, I can still support you."

Qiao Nan didn't listen, and kept stuffing the bank card into his pocket, whispering like a whisper: "Then you save it for me, and treat it as my investment in Xunan." He lifted his chin and said proudly: "These are all my wife books that I have saved since I was a child."

The author says:

Nannan: I leave it to my wife to take care of it, it's completely OK;

Brother Pei:?Again, who is the wife;
