Chi Yue's face was colorful and dazzling in an instant, and finally stayed in the color of the roasted prawns.

"You, you!"

Meng Yuning did not wear glasses, narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at the wonderful facial expression changes of the young man leisurely.

Chi Yue drank too much today, and he just did that in the bathroom. It was entirely because of alcohol. When people were alone, their brains would sometimes suck, and they would unconsciously do things that were confused and stupid when they recalled, such as just now.

He subconsciously wanted to explain that he was just drunk.

But I swallowed it again when I got to my mouth.

He explained to Brother Pei Xuezhu!

Any explanation!

Chi Yue pretended to be calm and leaned against the wall to force himself to recover his steady breathing.

There was also the sound of Xuezhu's father talking to Xuezhu outside the door. Neither of the two men spoke, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

After Chi Yue recovered from the awkwardness to death, he asked the man with an upset expression on his face: "Why are you here?"

Meng Yuning couldn't see his mouth clearly, and walked closer with his eyes narrowed.

Chi Yue pressed against the wall in fear, and the Adam's apple was trembling: "What are you doing? Fight?"

He felt a little strange. Pei Xuezhu, a brother who works in finance, looked like he was the same as his military man when he stood face to face.

Meng Yuning said calmly: "I'm myopia and can't see clearly what you're talking about."

Chi Yue: "..."

He had to use Qiyin to repeat the question just now: "Why are you here?"

Meng Yuning's voice was extremely low: "Look at Xiaozhu."

"Nonsense!" Chi Yue's interjection was not shocked by the way in Qiyin, "I'll ask you what is the purpose of seeing Pei Xuezhu."

Meng Yuning did not answer directly, and played roundabout words with him, with a smile on his lips: "What do you think? Come and cheer yourself up like you?"

Chi Yue finally recovered, and he was sent to hell by one word.

He murmured in pain, covering his forehead and feeling uncomfortable.

Meng Yuning raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled slightly.

"...You don't tell Pei Xuezhu."

After a while, Chi Yue whispered and asked in a low voice.

Although he was asking Meng Yuning, his majestic and incomparable look looked particularly like he was forced to give up his attitude.

Meng Yuning has been immersed in the Vanity Fair for many years, and even his opponents can smile.

Now Chi Yue is the first to express his resistance and disgust in the face of him.

He chuckled, and said in a gentle tone: "Of course."

The answer was too straightforward, and Chi Yue's intuition began to cause trouble again.

Men's intuition is sometimes unexpectedly accurate, especially those related to women.

"Are you--" Chi Yue paused and chose a more implicit question, "Are you and Pei Xuezhu a simple sibling relationship?"

If you don’t have blood ties, you are just neighbors.

My brother and sister have been calling me for so many years, but I don’t know that I really think they are brothers and sisters.

Chi Yue didn't believe from the bottom of his heart how pure this so-called brother-sister relationship is.

Meng Yuning tilted his head slightly, his eyes were smiling, and he expressed his affirmation of his IQ: "You are quite smart."

Chi Yue was not happy at all because of being praised.

"Then are you..."

His throat stuck, his ears were slightly red, and he couldn't say that word.

Meng Yuning simply nodded: "Yes."

Chi Yue frowned: "I haven't finished asking yet."

"I guessed it," Meng Yuning said, "I like Xiaozhu."

Chi Yue's fox eyes suddenly opened, his expression slightly shy. I don't know why Pei Xuezhu's brother admitted that he liked Pei Xuezhu so simply, and he was embarrassed.

After thinking for a long time, he could only condemn the beast brother in front of him from a moral level: "You have watched Pei Xuezhu grow up since childhood, so why are you embarrassed to attack her?"

Meng Yuning didn't care and asked softly: "My sister is popular, how can you like her? I, the brother, can't?"

Chi Yue was dumbfounded.

In terms of sophistry and showing off, he is really no match for the man in front of him.

Chi Yue didn't say anything for a long time, and his tone was no longer as sharp as before when he spoke: "Since you have been in the bathroom, why didn't you stop me from confessing?"

"Everyone has the right to speak. Unless Xiaozhu doesn't want to listen to you, no one is qualified to stop you from confessing to Xiaozhu."

Chi Yue was slightly stunned, his expression was a little dull.

But immediately after the next sentence, Meng Yuning added politely and superiorly: "And I don't think it's that necessary."

Chi Yue's face was gloomy, and he regretted the change he had just made about him.

He didn't know what Pei Xuezhu thought about this man.

But in her heart, she must not be able to compare with him.

Chi Yue suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly.

***

Xuezhu saw that there was no movement in the bathroom for a long time.

She was still naively fantasizing that at this time, Meng Yuning and Chi Yue were behind the shower curtain and the other was in front of the shower curtain, and no one saw the peaceful scene of each other.

Pei Lianyi was still knocking on the door, and the more he knocked, the more he became more suspicious: "Don't open the door yet? Is there really someone else in your room?"

"No, really not."

Before she could think about it, she quickly opened the door for Pei Lianyi.

Pei Lianyi was very rude. Relying on his role as Pei Xuezhu's father, his posture was like a leader's inspection, he walked in directly, which was much more arrogant than Meng Yuning and Chi Yue.

"Why didn't the door open for a long time?"

Xuezhu had no choice but to say, "I drank too much today and I was sleeping in the room."

Pei Lianyi frowned immediately: "You are drinking? Didn't your father tell you not to drink casually outside? If someone asks you to drink, you will say you won't drink."

Xuezhu smiled awkwardly.

Pei Lianyi saw her expression and guessed that she must have been persuaded to drink, and then she was not able to refuse others.

"Xiao Zhu, you are a girl, and you don't drink outside, you can easily suffer a loss," the old father said earnestly, "You can't drink even at a class reunion. You have not contacted classmates for several years, how do you know if they have any other thoughts in their minds?"

Chi Yue in the bathroom twitched the corner of his mouth.

Xuezhu scratched her head: "It's not that exaggerated. Dad, you're thinking too much."

"Not that exaggerated? Xiaozhu, now you have graduated from college, and your father cannot watch you anytime and anywhere. You work and live outside and you must be prepared for others, especially for men. Young men are fine. The older men have more routines. You can deceive the little girl into being unstoppable in just a few words. At that time, you will only suffer."

Meng Yuning in the bathroom sighed silently.

Pei Lianyi walked around again and found that there were no men's objects. He felt relieved and waved his daughter to pack her luggage.

"Pack up and let's go home."

"oh."

Xuezhu had no choice but to say slowly to pack up.

The old father was exhausted and his body was a little overwhelmed. Pei Lianyi sat on the sofa to rest. Seeing that his daughter was packing things too slowly, he couldn't help but stand up again.

"Why are you so slow? Dad helps you clean up."

The father and daughter were talking while packing their things.

Pei Lianyi asked: "Is grandpa in good health?"

"Fortunately, my grandma said she would be discharged from the hospital after staying for a few more days after the examination, but--" Xuezhu lowered her head and said in a very gentle tone, "Grandpa can't remember much. When I went back this time, he asked me if I was taking the college entrance examination."

Pei Lianyi smiled and said, "The old man is like this. He is old and has a bad memory. If you spend more time with his grandfather, he will remember it."

Xuezhu nodded: "Yes."

"Also," Pei Lianyi stopped talking, and finally asked, "How is your mother?"

Xuezhu turned her head and looked at her father without saying anything.

Pei Lianyi coughed: "What are you doing?"

Xuezhu curled her lips: "Mom is pretty good. She can eat and sleep. She is younger than she looked a few years ago."
