hold peck

Huijia has guests today. The guests' family name is Qin, and the other family's surname is Ji.

When Xu Peck came out of the private elevator, it was Qin Zheng who came to open the door for him.

Young Master Qin's casual clothes were always wrapped from head to toe with famous tags. He had just finished the exam, and he had already dyed a few strands of dark red on the top of his head.When Xu Peck changed his slippers and got up, Qin Zheng was still standing at the door looking at him with complicated eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xu Peck waited, and heard him say coldly: "Your uncle called me yesterday, and I said that we stayed in the hotel together after playing too late, and it was the Four Seasons in the south of the city, so don't make a mistake and trouble me. "

Xu Peck nodded and repeated: "Thank you, Qin Zheng."

He was so polite, but Qin Zheng rolled his eyes and walked away as if he heard some fragrant words.

I don't know why the mother and son of the Qin family and the Ji family are visiting today. Ji Chen is sitting at Xu Peck's house and dares to say in his voice that Xu Peck has no tutor. Thanks to his big house and good sound insulation, otherwise he would be carried by his mother Kick your ears to death.

Xu Peck originally planned to say hello to the adults and then go back to the room, but when he walked into the huge living room where the sun was shining all over the floor, he was stumped by the weird atmosphere in the air.

Liang Yan was not a born noble lady, even before she got married she was considered a well-known intellectual in the city, but she had no family background.However, Liang Yan is very smooth, and she is not noble. All the wives in the Xu family's social circle like to play with her, except Mrs. Qin.

Their husbands are the most important partners in the business field. Although the wife tried her best to maintain the harmony on the surface, Liang Yan could tell that she looked down on herself.

Until three years ago, when Xu Si's incident happened, Xu Ji'an was furious, and Mrs. Qin rushed to the hospital overnight, knelt down in front of Liang Yan and begged her for mercy.

At that time, this Mrs. Xu, who had never been really accepted by her current class, probably felt complicated and strange in her heart.

Of course she hated the family who hurt her son, but now, this woman who she could only look up to before was kneeling in front of her without self-respect, and Liang Yan couldn't help feeling a strange sense of satisfaction in her heart.

She could accept that Xu Ji'an finally chose to forgive the Qin family, or she could continue to live in harmony with these wives, but all of this was based on the premise that the eldest son of the Qin family would never appear in front of her again.

The atmosphere in the living room was eerie.

Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Ji sat on one side, complimenting the decoration of Xu's house with each other, their son sat silently on the side and played with the mobile phone as if nothing had happened, while Liang Yan sat dignifiedly on the chair by the window Trimming the bouquet on the table.

She was very calm, like a noble lady, until Xu Peck walked in, she raised her head to look at the child she didn't like the most, and a very faint pleading flashed in her eyes.

She had a fierce fight with Xu Ji'an last night, and this time she was determined not to give in, but she had no ally.

It can only be about one person who can make her look at Xu Peck like this, Xu Si.

Xu Peck sat down on the sofa.

"Hello, Aunt Qin, Aunt Ji."

"Hello, little peck. It's been a long time. This exam must be the first in the grade again. I always ask Xiaochen to play with you more and get close to Zhu Zhechi, but this kid is just too shy."

Not just shy.Mrs. Ji was smiling, and she didn't even blink her eyes when she said nonsense.

"Mom..." Ji Chen gritted his teeth and mumbled a word out of his mouth, but no one responded to him.

Qin Zheng was lying on the back of the sofa with his earphones on. Xu Peck sat not far from him and took an orange from the coffee table.

He said, "Aunt Qin, is Qin Yuan coming back?"

"..."

There was a dead silence in the room, Qin Zheng's eyelashes trembled, but his eyes were still tightly closed.

Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Ji looked at each other for two seconds, looked at Xu Peck who was peeling oranges in a leisurely manner, and then looked at Liang Yan who was pretending to be deaf by the window. Mrs. Qin gritted her teeth and said softly: "Little Peck, It's been three years, and your elder brother Qin Yuan has suffered a lot abroad alone, and he has sincerely repented a long time ago, isn't Xiao Si now much better and can go to school, how about..."

"Aunt Qin," Xu Peck lowered his eyelids and gently interrupted the adult's suggestion, "Do you know why a central divider must be set up on the road when the speed of the car exceeds 50 kilometers per hour?"

"..."

No one answered him, Xu Peck peeled off the oranges one by one, asked himself and answered calmly: "Because once there is a car accident, it is the critical line of impact that life and death can bear."

"Little peck..."

Xu Peck raised his head, his eyes were as peaceful as two pools of still water: "But the difference between life and death is not the same as what most people imagine. In fact, it is death, and death is better than life."

People who have experienced a serious car accident may lose their sound limbs, or replace their artificial skulls with low intelligence for a lifetime. There are many, many kinds of costs, including all the injuries that Xu Si has suffered over the years.

Xu Peck looked at the speechless Mrs. Qin, and smiled: "I am the adopted son of the Xu family, and I have no part to speak in this family, but I have to remind you that it is precisely because Xu Si is the only one in this family. Son, so it should be obvious to whom the Xu family's business will be handed over in the future."

In order to allow the heir to return to the country smoothly, the Qin family even did not hesitate to set off the rotten sores that were concealed a few years ago, but who can guarantee how long this whitewashed peace can last.

Xu Ji'an will not sit in that seat forever.

Mrs. Qin's face was pale.

Liang Yan was still fiddling with her flowers by the window, as if she couldn't hear anything.But before Xu Peck came back just now, she was not as leisurely as she is now.

"Little Peck," Mrs. Ji interjected with a stiff smile, "Your uncle has said more than once that you are also an important part of the family. If you talk like that, your uncle and aunt will be very sad."

"You're right," Xu Peck chuckled, "but it's all the same, after all, Xiao Si and I don't like Brother Qin Yuan."

Mrs. Qin couldn't bear this undisguised aggressiveness any longer, she picked up her clothes in embarrassment and stood up.

Xu Peck threw the orange peel into the exquisite crystal ashtray on the table, raised his head, and gave her the final blow with a smile: "The Xu family only has Xu Si, but the Qin family does not only have Qin Yuan, don't you think so?"

"Xu peck!"

Qin Zheng opened his eyes and looked at him coldly.

This attitude is still better, there should not be any relationship between them other than tit-for-tat and strangers.

Xu Peck didn't even lift his eyelids.

"...Let's go, Xiaozheng." Mrs. Qin closed her eyes, and left without hesitation with her last self-esteem and temperament.

There is no need for his mother to mention, Ji Chen has long been on pins and needles, Qin Zheng has not moved yet, he has already rushed out of the huge living room of Xu Peck's house.

But Qin Zheng was still sitting on the sofa without moving.

Mrs. Ji couldn't hold back her smile: "Xiaozheng..."

Qin Zheng stood up and walked to Xu Peck step by step, bent down, and leaned over to his ear.

For a moment, Xu Peck felt that Qin Zheng probably wanted to bite off his ear.

But in the end he said nothing, did nothing, and left.

The door was slammed shut, and only the master's living room was left silent again.

Xu Peck finished the battle in 2 minutes and got up to go back to the house.

"Little peck." Liang Yan suddenly stopped him.

"..." Xu Peck turned his head and looked at her quietly.

Liang Yan doesn't like Xu Peck, a large part of the reason may be that she is actually a little afraid of Xu Peck in her heart.

This child has been like this since she was very young, her eyes are dark and bright, very beautiful, but she always feels that those eyes are like a pair of whirlpools or some kind of abyss, people can't help but want to stay away.

Xu Peck is a lunatic who is not afraid of anything, but it's nothing. After all, whoever lives in this house is not crazy.

"Last night, we had a meal with the Qin family." Liang Yan put down the flower scissors, her voice very soft.

As usual at the banquet, the men exchanged cups and glasses, and the women smiled and exchanged the jewelry of the season, but in the middle of the walk, Qin's father suddenly pretended to be unintentional and said, "Ji'an, my body has also grown in size these past few years. It’s not as good as before. Qin Zheng’s kid doesn’t live up to expectations, and he gets into trouble with me every day at school. But the one from abroad has learned a lot about how to behave in the world recently. I see that although he is far inferior to the two kids in your family, he is still good. Barely a little better than his brother."

The scene at that time was as quiet as it is today, Liang Yan's face turned pale suddenly, and after a long silence, Xu Ji'an just smiled, held up the wine cup and clinked glasses with his friends, and changed other topics very naturally .

Liang Yan raised a hand to cover her eyes in discomfort.

"Your uncle, he is too weak."

As soon as the dinner with each other's ulterior motives was over, Liang Yan quarreled with Xu Ji'an in the car returning.

She could accept that they continued to live in peace with the Qin family, but she couldn't bear Qin Yuan's return like this - he didn't receive any price at all from the beginning to the end.

Xu Ji'an hadn't come home since last night, he made a detour to the company, and Liang Yan was brought back by the driver alone.

But is he really weak?

Xu Ji'an is a natural businessman, but he is also a man, a father, he will also feel angry when he hears that almost unreasonable temptation, and wants to vent, but he can't just release it without reservation like that.

The Xu family and the Qin family have had inextricable entanglements of interests since the previous generation.Just like the Qin family cannot be separated from the Xu family, the Xu family also cannot be separated from the Qin family. Xu Ji'an cannot tear himself apart from them.

But as a father who deeply felt sorry for his son, he was unwilling to let the culprit who hurt Xu Si return to Yancheng unharmed, so he deliberately showed that kind of ambiguous and ambiguous attitude, deliberately causing Liang Yan and him to become hysterical.

A woman's tears are the most unreasonable weapon in the world, and he is forcing his wife to win for himself in this silent temptation.And Liang Yan was smarter than he imagined, because she realized the moment Xu Peck came back that what is more effective than a woman's benevolence is Tong Yanwuji.

Does Xu Ji'an know that Liang Yan will ask Xu Peck for help.Maybe he didn't know it at first, but Xu Peck called him this morning, and Xu Ji'an, who knew who was visiting at home, was silent for two seconds and did not inform him in advance.

Maybe they don't feel like they've done anything wrong.

"Thank you" is on the lips, but I can't say it.Liang Yan opened her mouth several times, and finally picked up the flower scissors again, and said in a soft tone: "You don't need to say that last sentence."

Xu Peck raised the corners of his lips, and put the orange pulp in his hand on the table.

Of course he will.

That was the only sentence that Xu Ji'an wanted to tell the Qin family through his mouth.

Mrs. Qin's visit today was just another trial. Although the result of the trial did not represent Xu Ji'an's opinion, it determined his attitude - Qin Yuan could not come back, the Qin family had better support the second son as soon as possible, The eldest son is useless.

The words of condemnation were handed over to a child to speak out.The grown-ups will not pay any price for this. When they walk out of the house, they are still the most respected chairman and one of the noble wives in Yancheng. Even the Qin family who almost broke their faces today will still laugh when they meet again Be as close as a family.

But Xu Peck is not.

He can speak without any scruples, but once he leaves the shelter of the Xu family, he will be torn to pieces immediately.

Perhaps neither Xu Ji'an nor Liang Yan thought that this would be unfair to Xu Peck. They might still be silently comforted by this family fighting side by side, but no one had ever thought that Xu Peck actually wanted to leave. this home.

He was willing to always respect Xu Ji'an and protect Xu Si, but he very much hoped that he would no longer have the status of an adopted son.

But he has no choice, after all, he is just a picked child.

"What I just said is true. No matter what my uncle said, I don't want anything."

Xu Peck slightly bowed to Liang Yan who suddenly raised her head and opened her eyes wide at him: "Good afternoon, Auntie."

Or, good afternoon, Mrs. Xu.

Huijia's door was closed again.

In the backyard on Qingnan Road, He Zhi was trying to teach the parrot to talk, but unfortunately even the birds didn't like him.

The little bastard barely resisted the urge to turn this dead bird, which was useless except for its cute appearance, into a dead bird. As if aware of something, he turned around and saw Xu Peck who had just been sent home by him at the gate of the yard.

"Yuanyuan."

Why are you crying, Yuanyuan.

Who bullied you.

Xu Peck shook his head, without saying a word, walked over and slipped into the little gangster's open arms with nostalgia.

He just suddenly missed He Zhi very much.

In this world, there is only one person who loves and protects Yuanyuan just because he is Yuanyuan.
