"do not you?"
When these words are spoken by a beautiful woman, and when you think about Pei Yue's previous words, it seems a bit charming. However, she used to always hold her head high and act cold, but now she has changed from her normal state and seems to have become a different person.
Pei Yue couldn't confirm whether she had really changed or was just putting on a show in front of him, but he was always willing to use the worst possible intentions to speculate on this woman who didn't know the details.
He said calmly and indifferently: "Whether or not I am that kind of person has nothing to do with you."
It's not surprising that the man in front of him is so wary and resistant. If he suddenly becomes gentle to him, Chen Xizhi will fall into fear and suspicion.
She said "Oh" lukewarmly, and then habitually shrank into the chair, like an insecure cat.
"To this day, I still think that killing you is more in my interest." Pei Yue said in a deep voice.
Chen Xizhi didn't seem to care, nodded and said: "Liu Zheng's trust in you is not strong. If he and Wang Pingzhang know that I am still alive, what you did in Lingzhou will have the opposite effect, and everything you have will be in danger."
The ending of disappearing into smoke.”
It is natural to worry less when talking to smart people, but this does not mean that Pei Yue can feel relaxed.
Whether it was because of the original blood feud or his own safety in the future, it was difficult for Pei Yue to have a good look towards Chen Xizhi. How could he not know the danger if he left such a time bomb beside him? It’s just that this matter has something to do with Ye Qi. For this
After devoting all his sweetheart to him, Pei Yue will eventually make some concessions.
Ye Qi is not his accessory, she is an individual with an independent personality, and she has her own past and life.
The relationship between her and Chen Xizhi is difficult to describe in precise words. They have the same master and grew up together when they were young. Even if they later parted ways due to their ideas, this cannot completely erase the friendship.
No one can truly forget their feelings, there will always be an inch of softness in their heart.
Putting himself in his shoes, if Pei Yue and Gu Fan had a falling out, it would be difficult for him to accept the idea of killing him again after the other party committed suicide in front of him.
Thinking of this, Pei Yue calmed down slightly. Although his tone could not be called friendly, it was not as depressed as before: "It's good that you understand, and I don't want to be mysterious in front of you. You are alive because of Ye Qi's kindness. I don't
I need you to be grateful to me. At least you should be nice to her and know what you can and cannot do."
Chen Xizhi tilted his head slightly and asked, "Is this a warning?"
Pei Yue said in a deep voice: "Yes."
Chen Xizhi didn't speak, just sighed.
The impression Pei Yue had on her kept changing. From the initial cautiousness to the later decisiveness of killing, only one thing remained consistent. This guy dared to kill and was good at killing. He was completely different from those playboys who were strong on the outside but tough on the inside.
Pei Yue looked calm and changed the topic: "Ye Qi said that you must meet me before you are willing to give her advice and help her take care of the manor she is laying out. I think you should have something to say to me, or make some suggestions.
Requested, so here I am.”
"I know that your intention in making this arrangement is just to let me keep my peace and stop causing trouble for you like before. Now life and death are in your hands. The so-called man is a knife and I am a fish. There is nothing to say about such a fate. But if you want
I work hard, and you need to agree to my three requests, otherwise I would rather be imprisoned by you for the rest of my life."
"you say."
"First of all, I don't want to continue living here. Old Chen's family is doing their duty and is worried every day. If things go on like this, there will be problems."
"Okay, I will help you arrange a house in Xicheng as soon as possible."
"Second, no matter what you want me to do, you can only come to me through Ye Qi, or you can come in person. I don't accept orders from anyone else."
"no problem."
"Third, I need a trustworthy person by my side. Nongyu is just a weak maid after all."
"who?"
"You should know or know that I call him Uncle Nong. He used to help me take care of various affairs in Lingzhou. After I faked my death, Nongyu gave you the list of my cronies. You did not kill them.
Pei Yue, I don’t care about other people, but Uncle Nong, like Uncle Fish, is the old man next to my mother, and I don’t want him to suffer in the rest of his life.”
Pei Yue looked at her quietly.
The first request is not too much. It must be very frustrating for Chen Xizhi to live in this small courtyard and see only three feet of sky above her head every day. The second request is also understandable. No matter what kind of situation a person like her is in
In this environment, being arrogant and arrogant is engraved in her bones. It would be more difficult for her to accept it than to kill her if she had to run around all day long and be shouted at.
Just this last request...
Facing the silent Pei Yue, Chen Xizhi hesitated in his eyes and smiled miserably: "Pei Yue, I have fallen to this point, what are you worried about?"
Her appearance was inherited from Chen Qingchen, but she was usually suppressed by her cold and aloof temperament, so people would stay away from her. Now her temperament is no longer sharp, but she shows a bit of natural and romantic attitude. In addition,
The soft look between her eyebrows made her look even more pitiful.
Pei Yue was unmoved, shook his head slightly and said: "There is no room for negotiation on this matter, I will not agree."
Chen Xizhi looked disappointed, turned around and said, "I understand."
"Is there anything else?"
Chen Xizhi remained silent.
Pei Yue stood up and said, "Farewell."
Chen Xizhi said without looking back: "I won't send it away."
After Pei Yue left, she kicked off her shoes, wrapped her feet in white socks and stepped on the edge of the wicker chair. Then she opened her arms and hugged her calves, rested her chin on her knees, wrinkled the tip of her nose and murmured to herself: "It's hard or soft."
Eat? I don't believe you can always be so calm."
The door was suddenly pushed open again.
Pei Yue stuck his head out and said with a smile, "I suddenly remembered something."
"Huh?" Chen Xi subconsciously curled up his feet and turned his head.
Pei Yue asked: "Are you born in the 13th year of Jianping?"
Chen Xizhi's dark eyebrows gradually frowned.
Pei Yue shook his head at her, frowning as if regretfully, and sighed: "So you are twenty-four years old this year."
"Pei Yue, get away from me!"
Chen Xizhi's gentle gesture that he had maintained for a long time was swept away. He leaned over, picked up a shoe and threw it towards it.
Pei Yue smiled wildly, and then hit his shoe on the closed door.
Chen Xizhi's chest heaved violently. This guy actually despised his age, echoing what he had said before, "I won't be interested in you." It was simply unbearable!
She only hated that she was weak and powerless now, otherwise she would have to tear that guy's mouth out even if she risked her life.
After a long time, Chen Xizhi gradually calmed down and bit his lower lip gently.
His eyes are extremely bright.
