[Rebirth to the Future] Diplomacy

Rong Pei soon found out that Gao Jingting had read his own information.

The central database sent a notice to An Zhihong when he took the information, informing him that the relevant information had just been copied by his fiancé.

Rong Pei was a little unhappy at first, but he felt relieved after thinking about it.

If Gao Jingting saw something in the past, he would definitely try his best to get it, and he couldn't wait for a moment.

It's amazing that he can endure it until now.

Rong Pei is calm and composed, but the people around him are different.

Recently, Le Tang, who was far away in Baizhou, heard about the scandal between Gao Jingting and Qu Ming, and cautiously reminded Rong Pei: "Brother...you have to be careful with him!" Then speak out about the threat to yourself.

Le Tang thinks that Gao Jingting is too unreliable. He keeps saying that when he likes you, he can do anything for you. Once he has a more desirable goal, he will immediately turn his face and be ruthless.

If the matter of Gao Jingting and Qu Ming was true, it would be terrible.

Who knows if he will torment his brother because of Qu Ming?

Le Tang had a sad face.

Tao An also listened all the time, and after Le Tang finished expressing his thoughts, he pursed his lips and hummed, "It's better if they make it real."

Le Tang fell silent.

For his elder brother who suddenly had a younger brother beside him, he was actually very uncomfortable—especially after learning about Tao An's previous bad deeds through other channels.

Both men glared at each other.

The younger brothers were at odds again, but Rong Pei didn't care.

He instructed Le Tang to cut off the call after a few words.

Tao An was also very dissatisfied with Le Tang: "I really don't like him, he looks a lot like those guys who follow Tao Xi, timid and cowardly."

Rong Pei said: "Le Tang is just naturally introverted."

Tao An didn't want to continue talking about this topic, he grabbed Rong Pei's arm and said, "Brother, let Mao Qiu go out with me today, okay? There are people coming from the house, and they want me to go to the banquet tonight, you let Mao Qiu accompany me." Me! Otherwise, I will be suffocated to death..."

Rong Pei rubbed the hair on his forehead: "If you don't want to go, don't go."

Tao An looked angry, but insisted: "I said I would go, and I will go."

Looking at his appearance, Rong Pei still doesn't know who he has fallen into.Although Tao An was intentionally frustrated, Rong Pei didn't want to see him suffer too much: "Xiao Zhou is not by your side, you have to grow up."

Tao An nodded.

Unexpectedly, Tao An stumbled that night.

Even Tao Xi, who coaxed Tao An to come to the scene, was really beaten with a sap.

Several seniors representing the Xu family came together with the Tao family. They looked at Tao An for a long time with the eyes of evaluating the goods. The fourth Tao family announced on the spot: "Tao An, go home and prepare, you and Xu Lang will get engaged next month."

Tao An jumped up and shouted, "Fourth Uncle, did you make a mistake! Tao Xi and that guy are also going to get engaged..."

The fourth child of the Tao family said, "It's you and Xu Lang."

Tao An's expression changed.

This news made him a little hard to accept. He glanced at the elders with frozen faces, and couldn't help but backed away from Tao Xi.When he bumped into Tao Xi, he grabbed Tao Xi's arm as if he had hit a life-saving straw: "Tao Xi, tell them...you and Xu Lang have already..."

Tao Xi pulled him behind him, and faced the piercing eyes of the fourth uncle of the Tao family: "Fourth uncle——"

The fourth son of the Tao family said: "Xizi, there is no room for you to intervene in this matter. You should take care of yourself. Last time you changed the plan without authorization, the Patriarch is already very upset."

The Tao family was originally optimistic about Gao Heng, and they had a lot of bargaining chips, but after Tao Xi chose Gao Jingting, the previous investment was wiped out.

It's no wonder that this can make the Patriarch of the Tao family, who puts interests first, happy.

After Tao Xi understood the meaning of his fourth uncle's words, his whole body trembled.

If he knew that the family would do something like this, he would never have tricked Tao An over!

Tao An was very close to Tao Xi, and could clearly see Tao Xi's body trembling.He was a little puzzled, but he could tell that Tao Xi was arguing for him, while his fourth uncle took the opportunity to beat him.

He also wanted to meet his family's requirements and compete with Tao Xi, but his father's ruthlessness when he was in trouble with the Xu family made him see many things clearly.

Watching Tao Xi block himself behind, Tao An vaguely sensed something.

Tao An came out from behind Tao Xi and said, "Engagement is engagement!" He sideways protected Tao Xi, and sneered, "But do you dare to let that guy who is behind the scenes come out and say something himself?"

Xu Langyin waited for Tao An to respond, and walked out slowly after hearing Tao An's thorny words.

He looked at Tao An, then at Tao Xi, then turned to the fourth uncle of the Tao family and said, "I'll talk to them."

The fourth uncle of the Tao family nodded.

Xu Lang pulled Tao An to the room closest to the main hall, and said to Tao Xi seriously: "Tao Xi, I want to explain to Tao An what happened at that time..."

Tao Xi was silent for a moment, but still said: "There is nothing to explain, that is, that time... nothing happened to us."

Tao An was taken aback.

Tao Xi didn't speak any more.

Xu Lang's sudden move caught him off guard, but since the family opened their mouths, the engagement must be inevitable.

Rather than leaving Tao An and Xu Lang with a thorn in their hearts, it's better to speak clearly.

As for my own selfishness, it doesn't matter whether I mention it or not.

Tao Xi explained it himself, and Xu Lang relaxed, grabbed Tao An's hand and said, "Tao An, talk to me."

Tao An tried his best to shake off Xu Lang's hand, but he couldn't let go of Xu Lang's grip.He gritted his teeth and said, "What do you want me to say? Say I'm very happy—you're laughing!"

Xu Lang said, "Tao An!"

Tao An's voice was colder than ever: "Let me go."

Xu Lang involuntarily let go of his hand.

Tao An took several steps back, and finally stood by the door and said, "Let me know when the engagement time is set. It's best not to bother me about other things, I'm very busy."

Xu Lang was annoyed by his cold attitude, and strode forward: "What are you busy with? Are you busy walking around behind that Zhao Yang's ass?"

Tao An was led by Tao Xikeng to the Wild Wolf to participate in the autumn competition. After thinking about it, he felt sorry for Zhao Yang, who had been patiently teaching him, so he followed Zhao Yang around in his spare time and showed great hospitality. People call him "little follower".Hearing Xu Lang's accusation, Tao An couldn't react at first, and then said angrily, "What do I have to do with you..."

Xu Lang said: "There will be a relationship soon!"

Tao An was delighted by his righteousness.

He turned around and opened the door and walked out. If he stayed with this kind of person for too long, his IQ would drop several levels sooner or later!

Tao An originally thought that what they were worried about was the matter of his drugging, so they did have a reason to hate him.

Unexpectedly, nothing happened at that time!

Then what are they fussing about?

He confessed if he wanted revenge, and he confessed if he wanted to accept punishment. What kind of engagement is left at this moment... Do you want to see each other and hate each other for a lifetime?

Tao An slammed the door.

He raised his head and met his fourth uncle's gaze abruptly.

Tao An didn't say goodbye to the elder, bypassing him and leaving the house directly.

When Tao An returned to Rong Pei's house, Rong Pei was sitting in the study and reading a book. He heard Zhou Xuyu say that the municipal administration was very busy recently, but he seemed more and more calm.

Tao An felt that his elder brother was really a contradictory person. He was obviously ambitious and worked hard, but he felt very relaxed when he was by his side.

It's completely different from home...

Even the light shining on his body seemed to become extra soft.

Tao An suddenly didn't want to bother Rong Pei with his troubles.

Rong Pei has too many things to do.

He was about to tiptoe away, but Rong Pei had already noticed his existence: "What's wrong?"

Tao An sniffed, the tip of his nose felt a little sour.He didn't have much hope for this brother, he even just wanted to get Gao Jingting's line through him.

But now that he has been wronged, he really wants to be comforted by Rong Pei.

—what a disgrace!

But shame is shame...

Tao An threw himself into Rong Pei's arms and shouted, "Brother..."

Rong Pei was taken aback.

Although Tao An has a childish temper, he rarely does this kind of clingy behavior.

He raised his hand and rubbed Tao An's head: "What happened?"

Tao An buried his head in Rong Pei's arms, shook it slowly a few times, and didn't say anything about Xu Lang's almost coercive approach.

Thinking of Xu Lang's words "it will be related soon", his chest felt tight and panicked.

With Xu Lang's current personality, his life will be difficult after the engagement.

Rong Pei saw this from the newsletter the next day.

The Xu family and the Tao family acted very quickly, as soon as the engagement was confirmed, there was an overwhelming publicity.The two parties involved are second to none. Numerous reports have focused on describing the broad-mindedness of Xu and Tao's family members, who can laugh away even the greatest enmity.Some columns dug up the clips of Tao An and Xu Lang getting along, spent a lot of space to overturn the incident that was judged as malicious kidnapping, and praised the sincere and warm feelings between them.

After reading it, Rong Pei smiled and said, "It seems that a large number of storytellers have poured into Yunlaigang during this period of time."

One and two write the news ups and downs and fascinating.

Tao An pondered all night last night and he has figured it out.Although he is protected by his elder brother right now, his elder brother can't influence the decision of Xu Tao's family. If he insists on intervening, he will only make enemies for nothing.

He glanced at the reports in the newspaper, and snorted: "Engagement is engagement, what does it matter." He dug out one of the reports and handed it to Rong Pei, "This one is very interesting!"

Rong Pei took it and looked, it turned out to be "Celebrities".It also reported the upcoming engagement of Tao An and Xu Lang, but only two sentences were mentioned in this content.

He put the focus on the following content: "Predict the next couple of Hong Kong celebrities who will get engaged to Yao."

This topic has attracted widespread attention, and gossip people from all walks of life have put forward their own speculations.

The guesses focus on Gao Jingting and Qu Ming who have been in the limelight recently.

Because anyone with eyes can see that Qu Ming and Gao Jingting are interacting more and more.

Qu Ming brought Gao Jingting into his circle during this time.

Qu Ming has a lot of friends in the capital, and there are also many friends scattered in various places. She is considered a veteran in several small circles, and it is not difficult to bring a newcomer to join.

Qu Ming did this because she saw Gao Jingting's excellent talent.

Since Gao Jingting made up his mind, he has become more and more devoted to things. After he has a new circle of friends, he will not let go of any opportunity to learn.

Gao Jingting felt that everything was slowly getting on the right track.

Just when he finally freed up time to go to Rong Pei, he saw the popular speculation on "Celebrities".

Gao Jingting was in a hurry, originally he wanted to ask Xu Lang to help suppress such unreliable rumors, but Qu Ming stopped him: "You look like a guilty conscience."

Gao Jingting was silent.

Qu Ming changed the subject: "There is a party tonight, can't you make it?"

Gao Jingting originally wanted to go to see Rong Pei at night, but when he heard Qu Ming say that, he fainted again.

Recently Qu Ming arranged a lot of gatherings, saying they were gatherings with friends, but in fact they were trying to hook him up.

If he refused, it would be in vain to blind Qu Ming's heart.

So that night, a large number of newspapers and periodicals reported on the Gao Qu family's joint venture, and those who care about it are guessing when the marriage master Gao Rongcheng will take down the most difficult Qu family.

It was also on this night that Rong Pei threw the birthday present for Gao Jingting into the trash can.

He knows Gao Jingting's character very well. This person's enthusiasm comes and goes quickly, and he will throw aside the new gadgets he got after trying every means.

The scandal with Qu Ming was well known to everyone but he didn't give him half a word of explanation from the beginning to the end. He knew that he cared about his family most but allowed Xu Lang to attack Tao An. In the end, he even chose to spend his birthday with Qu Ming— —When you look at these things together, Gao Jingting's attitude is obvious.

Although it's a bit harsh to say it, in a sense, he has already been acquired by Gao Jingting, and he has had enough fun.

Rong Pei was sitting on the armchair in front of the bed reading a book, the light was orange and it was very warm under the light.Looking at the lines of familiar and beautiful words on the page, Rong Pei's heart suddenly became very peaceful.

Peace like never before.

No matter how unwilling to admit it, he had to face his "distrust".

Almost from the time of Gao Jingting's "awakening", his heart has never been at peace.

He has been waiting for Gao Jingting's enthusiasm to subside.

So when he realized that this moment had arrived, not only did he not feel any discomfort, but he also completely calmed down.

Too fanatical love is not suitable for him in the first place.

He still believes in everything he has paid for.

Rong Pei read the book quietly for a while, and was about to go to bed when the door was opened carefully.

Gao Jingting, who came back from the party, saw through the crack of the door that Rong Pei was still awake, and immediately went into the room and closed the door: "Ah Pei, why aren't you asleep?"

Rong Pei said: "I was thinking about whether I should contact you and say happy birthday to you."

Gao Jingting was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that this day turned out to be his birthday.He didn't have any friends before, and his new friends had only met not long ago, so naturally they didn't know about it.

So he almost forgot about it.

Realizing the reason why Rong Pei went to bed late, Gao Jingting was both happy and guilty: "A Pei, are you waiting for me? Because today Qu Ming—"

Hearing Qu Ming's name, Rong Pei suddenly interrupted Gao Jingting: "I didn't prepare a gift."

Gao Jingting said: "What does that matter, you are so busy!"

Hearing that he really didn't care, Rong Pei was quiet for a moment and said, "I have something to tell you."
