On how to avoid being cannon fodder

Pei Xiu sat on the sofa, watching TV absently.Wu Jin brought over a plate of fruit, endured the uneasiness in his heart and forced a smile, "Ah Xiu, why are you wearing the clothes you went out with?"

Pei Xiu glanced at her casually, and said vaguely, "I have an appointment with someone later."

The smile on Wu Jin's face couldn't be maintained anymore, she bit her lip and said, "With Mu Wei again?"

Pei Xiu's hand holding the remote control paused for a moment, was silent for a few seconds and then said "Hmm".

Tears welled up in Wu Jin's eyes, and he complained in a trembling voice, "Pei Xiu! Why do you keep looking for that Mu Wei? You almost always go out to look for him whenever you have time, either at his work place or at a party. , do you remember how long it has been since you went out to see a movie with me? Since the end of the last year, you have spent less than half of the time you spent with Mu Wei, do you love me or not?"

Pei Xiu turned away from looking at her, and said in a perfunctory tone, "Don't think too much, of course I love you."

Wu Jin's tears rolled down her fair cheeks uncontrollably: "But do you still remember that today is my birthday?"

Pei Xiu's body froze for a moment, he turned off the TV with a snap, and walked out of the living room with a sullen face.

At this time, the door just opened, and a man with eyebrows and eyes somewhat similar to Pei Xiu came in with a dish. Seeing the oppressive atmosphere in the living room, he immediately raised his eyebrows: "Yo, what's going on?"

When Pei Xiu saw him, a smile appeared on his face: "Cousin."

The man put down the dishes, looked at Wu Jin who was sobbing and then at Pei Xiu, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, he waved, "Xiao Xiu, come here, I'll ask you something."

Pei Xiu pursed his lips and walked over obediently.

The man pulled Pei Xiu out of the door, closed the door and said in a low voice, "Xiao Xiu, tell your cousin the truth, who do you really like?"

Pei Xiu lowered his head and said as if reciting a formula, "Of course it's Wu Jin."

The man rewarded him with a stern face, and scolded him in a low voice, "You're going to die, you lied to me even your brother! How do you like Wu Jin?"

Pei Xiu defended in a low voice: "I didn't lie."

The man laughed angrily at him: "Didn't lie? Your brother, I brought you up since I was a child, and I still don't know what you think? You don't tell me. I can tell that you must like Mu Wei."

Pei Xiu was a little flustered, and immediately denied it: "Brother, don't talk nonsense!"

When the man saw his reaction, he understood immediately, and lowered his voice even lower: "Don't be nervous, high-level supernatural beings have privileges now, and you, a top seven-level expert, can't be controlled by anyone. A man, if you like it, go after him. Mu Wei is the Minister of Defense, if you can really unite with him, it will be a great thing for our family."

Pei Xiu's expression was a little shaken.This man was his cousin Pei Yong, and they only got in touch after the end of the world.Pei Yong had been hiding in a city before, relying on his cautious character and level [-] ability to successfully survive until the end of the world.Pei Yong is Pei Xiu's most trusted person, and his support obviously holds a lot of weight in Pei Xiu's heart.

Pei Yong continued to persuade him: "Xiaoxiu, if you don't love Wu Jin, don't force yourself. You were with her before because you were young and ignorant. You are a high-level supernatural being, and your life span is much longer than that of an ordinary person like her. , when she is old and you are still in the prime of life, you are not suitable in the first place."

Pei Xiu lowered his head and said nothing.

Pei Yong pushed him and said with a smile: "Okay, don't babble here, didn't you have an appointment with Mu Wei, go quickly."

Watching Pei Xiu go away, the smile on Pei Yong's face disappeared, and he pushed open the door violently.Wu Jin, who was eavesdropping behind the door, was pushed to the ground, her eyes were red and swollen, her lip was bitten by herself, and she looked extremely embarrassed.

"Have you heard everything?" Pei Yong looked down at her with a sneer.

Wu Jin trembled all over and didn't speak.

Pei Yong's tone was sarcastic and mean: "You useless guy has eaten our family's rice for so long, you should give up now, hurry up and get out, don't let Xiaoxiu make it difficult."

Wu Jin cried, "Why did you treat me like this? Did I do something wrong?"

Pei Yong stared at her, and said disdainfully: "Are you still asking what you did wrong? Don't you understand? Your biggest mistake is that you have nothing but your face. Can you bring power to Pei Xiu? Or wealth? Power? No. , you can't do anything, you can't even make Xiaoxiu happy. Don't mention your superficial foreign language skills to me. For so long, have you made a penny for our family with this skill? No. What are you It's useless, and you are blocking Xiaoxiu's way to find a good match. What's the difference with a parasite? Let me tell you, I've seen a lot of women like you who want to rely on a face, oh, no, just like you I really haven’t seen many people who don’t know how to flatter.”

Hatred flashed in Wu Jin's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by fear and helplessness.

At this time, on the other side, Ji Wenyuan put the dishes on the table and greeted: "Dean Han, it's time to eat."

Han Yanghao walked into the restaurant, rolled his eyes and said, "Don't call me the dean, it's annoying to hear."

Ji Wenyuan shook his head and smiled, "If you really don't like it, just resign."

Han Yanghao sat down at the dining table, picked up the chopsticks, put the meat of the chopsticks into his mouth, and chewed viciously: "Impossible! These guys used my vaccine for free, and I have to spend it back from the research funds they gave!"

"You are really..." Ji Wenyuan picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on, saying: "Eat slowly, Pei Xiu and I have made an appointment to have lunch together today, so we are leaving first."

Han Yanghao frowned and said, "Dinner again? Why is this kid always clinging to you?"

"Don't you always come to me? I want to find you a nanny, but you don't even want to come to my house for dinner." Ji Wenyuan joked.

Han Yanghao snorted twice, and took a mouthful of food again: "Who told you to cook so delicious food, I feel that after cutting off your bangs, your cooking skills have improved a lot, how can those nannies compare to you. "

Ji Wenyuan said helplessly, "It's up to you."

He always felt that Mu Wei's bangs were quite in the way. When the will of the world collapsed, he cut his hair short according to his preference.Fortunately, his personality is not very different from Mu Wei's. Even if Han Yanghao finds that he seems to have become more calm and introverted and doesn't like to joke, he just thinks that he was hit by the death of his family.

Han Yanghao bid farewell to Ji Wenyuan seemingly indifferently, but only 5 minutes after Ji Wenyuan left, he pushed the bowl away with a gloomy face, took out a microcomputer from his pocket to hack the community monitoring, and followed Ji Wenyuan with a dark face.

As he was walking, Ji Wenyuan suddenly had the feeling of being watched by someone. He stopped and frowned to sense it, and found that it seemed to be coming from the monitoring facilities of the community.But since he didn't feel any hostility, he just pretended he didn't notice it and didn't care.

When he arrived at the restaurant with the feeling of being watched all the way, Pei Xiu was already waiting for him at the reserved spot.

"Senior, here!" Pei Xiu waved, his eyes sparkling.

Ji Wenyuan walked over and sat down on the seat opposite him, and said with a smile: "You called me before and said you have something to talk to me face to face, can you talk now?"

There was nothing Pei Xiu had to say in person before, it was just an excuse to ask Ji Wenyuan out for dinner.But just now he was encouraged by Pei Yong before going out, now he really has something to say in person.

Pei Xiu was a little nervous, and he still couldn't say anything after deliberating for a while.He lowered his eyelids, not daring to look directly at Ji Wenyuan, and whispered, "Well, senior, let's eat first, and we'll talk after we're done."

Ji Wenyuan raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything.Since they made an appointment at a restaurant, they always said they wanted to eat the meal.Since Pei Xiu wasn't in a hurry to say it, it probably wasn't something important, and he wasn't in a hurry to hear it either.

After the two finished their meal, Ji Wenyuan wiped his mouth with a tissue while admiring Pei Xiu's fidgeting expression.Pei Xiu's eyes wandered around for a while, and finally took a deep breath, then clenched his fists to encourage himself, staring at the rice bowl in front of him and whispered: "Senior, I, I, I like you!"

Ji Wenyuan paused, and suddenly doubted his keen sense of hearing, which had never made a mistake: "What did you say?"

Pei Xiu was about to cry, and repeated with all his strength: "Senior Mu Wei, I like you!"

Ji Wenyuan: "..." This confession came so unexpectedly.

Ji Wenyuan calculated the time silently in his heart, and found that today is far from the April Fool's Day of any country in the world. He frowned and said, "Are you serious?"

Pei Xiu was so frightened that he almost shrank under the table, but he still responded firmly, "Seriously!"

Ji Wenyuan: "Don't you like Wu Jin?"

Pei Xiu said weakly, "No...no, I later found out that I like you, senior."

Ji Wenyuan: "...Oh." So those affectionate, mentally disabled, physically disabled and determined people who would rather die than save Wu Jin before him were all forced by the will of the world?No wonder he acted like he was worried about Wu Jin for a while and then forgot about her. It turned out that every time the will of the world hinted that he would "fall in love with Wu Jin" once.

Pei Xiu looked up at Ji Wenyuan expectantly: "Senior, you, can you accept me?"

Ji Wenyuan simply and calmly refused: "No, you are not my type."

Pei Xiu: "Ah..." Ruthless and ruthless, without euphemisms, your heart is broken, okay?But why does he still think that senior Mu Wei is so attractive? He is really hopeless.

Over there at Ji Wenyuan's house, Han Yanghao, who had hacked all the surveillance cameras and now hacked the restaurant surveillance, stared at Pei Xiu's mouth and understood what he was saying, and a murderous smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Pei Xiu, hehe .”

But immediately after seeing Ji Wenyuan's direct rejection, his face calmed down a bit.He narrowed his eyes, stroked his chin with his index finger, and looked at Ji Wenyuan thoughtfully.

Not the type you like, which means you can accept male partners?
