There was not much ambiguousness at all, but Pei Zhi was shocked.

She squatted down and pretended to be calm in the posture of packing the coffee table: "It's nothing, after talking about work, do good things for good people."

"Good people and good things?"

Pei Zhongnan's eyes swept across the coffee table and landed on Pei Zhi's helpless fingers, his heart as clear as a mirror.

The girl has been guilty since she was a child and couldn't get along with her fingers. I'm afraid that when she comes back, she will indeed break something good.

Pei Zhongnan made a conclusion in his heart, and he had been cautious in his words and actions since he entered the house, leaving only his eyes to circle between the two.

His eyes fell on the small medicine box, and Xie Xing explained first: "Sister Pei applied me medicine, and I broke a little skin."

Continue to fall on the familiar T-shirt on Xie Xing.

"Sister Pei saw that I was in the rain. I borrowed your clothes to change. Oh, so was the bath towel."

Her eyes continued to turn around, and before she could reach the next place, Pei Zhi interrupted with her temper: "Dad, what are you doing?"

"No, why didn't you do it? I'll take a look." Pei Zhongnan retracted his gaze and repeatedly emphasized: "Just take a look."

He had just stopped for a while and couldn't help it. He took advantage of the time when Pei Zhi collected the medicine box and said again: "Where did you get injured? Why did you get hurt? Let me see. When I was young, I ran a report and interviewed a famous surgeon. Maybe I could still remember something."

The wound soaked in water was very ferocious, and there was such a large area.

Xie Xing would not want others to see it, nor would Pei Zhi want to.

The two spoke in unison.

"Small wounds, I won't bother you."

"Dad, I'm traumatizing a little bit of injury, what's there to see?"

The sudden tacit understanding made the two subconsciously look at each other.

Pei Zhi glanced at him lightly and said nothing. When he withdrew his gaze, he just lowered his eyes.

Pei Zhongnan seems Buddhist. He has been struggling on the TV station for so many years. He can't see any secret actions. In the past, he just pretended not to see it. Now the scene is happening under his nose, which has attracted his desire to explore.

He coughed, as if he was not concerned: "If you don't look, don't look. What are you all so nervous about doing?"

“…”

Xie Xing looked calm while wearing a bath towel. On the other hand, Pei Zhi was really nervous. She didn't even pay attention to the used cotton swab and put it in the medicine box.

Seeing that Pei Zhongnan wanted to test, Xie Xing stood up first: "It's a little late today. Teacher Pei, then I'll go back first. I'll take the bath towel away first, and I'll return it to you after washing it another day."

"Oh, I'm going back. Why did you drive here?"

It seems like I'm back on the day of my first meeting.

Pei Zhongnan asked: "Xiao Xie, it's raining, have you brought an umbrella?"

He glanced in Pei Zhi's direction and shook his head: "No."

Because I didn’t bring an umbrella, the story followed was created.

After only a moment of recollection, his first reaction was to observe Pei Zhi, and then pursed his lips and shook his head: "I didn't drive."

"It's still raining so late, how can I get a taxi?" Pei Zhongnan's tone was unreasonable: "Let's do it, stay at the teacher's house today."

In the end, Xie Xing was forcibly left by Pei Zhongnan.

The reason is high-sounding, out of safety reasons.

Some things are unreasonable for Pei Zhongnan, a father who has to take care of the face of young people, but it does not prevent him from having eyes that can observe. Leaving people is to give himself a chance.

He has been a journalist all his life, and he can only do a few twists and turns under his nose.

Unexpectedly, he thought Pei Zhi would object. But she didn't seem to have a big reaction when it came to Xie Xing's residence.

But he looked at him helplessly and went upstairs to go back to the room early.

When his daughter is grown up, he can't go to the room to ask questions, so he naturally aims to Xie Xing.

The topic should not be too straightforward. Pei Zhongnan thought of ways to talk about his career from his studies, and then to his career to love. As he was about to get to the point, Xie Xing's mobile phone lit up.

Pei Zhongnan looked over. The boy sat on his black leather sofa with his legs half open. He was obviously quite upright, but his bones were emitting a lazy atmosphere. The young master was so angry that he made the sofa several times more expensive.

He glanced at his phone and suddenly showed an insignificant smile.

When I look up again, my eyes look even more lazy.

"Teacher Pei, it's too late today. I'm a little sleepy. Can I go up and go to bed first?"

Pei Zhongnan swept the clock and poked the pointer straight towards the number one.

He also felt that he had been overwhelmed. He finally got embarrassed to ask again after a kick, so he had to nod: "Okay, okay, go to bed quickly."

Xie Xing went upstairs wearing a bath towel, his eyelids drooped lazily, but the curve of the corners of his mouth became deeper.

My fingers stroked the new message on the screen over and over again.

It was Pei Zhifa.

Two years later, she said: [It's so noisy, but it's still not allowed to sleep]

***

A wall is separated by a sleepless night.

When Pei Zhi went downstairs with sleepy eyes, Pei Zhongnan was already sitting at the dining table with Xie Xing and had breakfast.

This is the second time after returning to China, I saw these two people sitting together early in the morning, but it felt more subtle than the last time.

She didn't sleep well at night, and once she closed her eyes, she seemed to see the winding and ugly scars. When she sat at the dining table, her face looked bad, and she seemed to have been getting up for a whole year.

Pei Zhongnan observed the atmosphere back and forth, and saw that she looked bad, but she couldn't find the opportunity to ask about yesterday.

Except for Xie Xing's side, the entire dining table continued to be low.

Breakfast ends in a silent and wonderful atmosphere.

Pei Zhi is going to the magazine to finalize the cover today. If she had been a few days ago, she would have left without fear, but after experiencing last night's incident, she inexplicably felt that it was not a good idea to leave Xie Xing alone to Pei Zhongnan.

She stepped up and down the duplex building several times, but she didn't go out and found a suitable opportunity to ask Xie Xing to go with her.

After waiting, the doorbell sounded loudly.

She watched Pei Zhongnan get up and open the door, and then watch Xu Bei appear at the door. Her eyes passed by someone in the living room for a moment, and soon put away her surprise and returned to normal.

He always maintained a gentle smile: "It was too late to reopen the stall last night, and Teacher Pei's car parked at the entrance of the hotel. I came to pick him up to work."

Pei Zhongnan put on his coat and turned around and asked her: "Don't you have reissue your driver's license yet? You can just ask Xiao Xu to take you to the magazine."

"I don't need it."

Pei Zhigang had refused. Pei Zhongnan didn't know if he was old and had a boring life, so he insisted on giving himself some excitement, and said to Xie Xing: "Xiao Xie didn't drive last night, right? I'll bring you with me."

Pei Zhi almost died of anger.

Before she recovered from her sleepiness early in the morning, she was forced to cheer up with her head pressed down.

It's so exciting to be in the same car with her ex-boyfriend, suitor and her seemingly know nothing. What's more, her ex-boyfriend is still a firecracker who can go crazy at any time.

Pei Zhi was determined to resist, but was afraid that Pei Zhongnan would see something, so she could only lightly hand it to Xie Xing.

I thought that past relationships would allow him to have the minimum tacit understanding with me, but she waited quietly, but she waited for a calm and self-controlled voice: "Okay."

“…”

A car of four people each had their own ulterior motives.

When passing by the entrance of the community, Pei Zhongnan pressed the window and looked at the shop along the street.

He vaguely remembered that when he came back last night, he seemed to see a familiar silver-gray sports car there. When he came out again this morning, the car was gone.

Since I read it wrong, I pressed back to the car window without any hesitation, and hummed a small song on my own as if I was covering my eyes and ears.

The soothing music in the car is intertwined with the humming tunes.

Pei Zhi leaned lazily in the back seat, seemingly closing her eyes and resting without any concern for herself, but she was very focused on her spirits, listening carefully to all the noises in the car.

Pei Zhongnan seemed to be tired of humming, and when he was halfway through, he suddenly stopped humming the song and changed to chat.

The voice was close to the ears, and Pei Zhi could even imagine her uneasy father turning around and turning to Xie Xing with her eyes closed.

"Hey, Xiao Xie. Where are you going in a while?"

Another voice sounded beside me, and I couldn't hear the emotion: "I'll go to the magazine too."

Once the topic was opened, two seconds later, Xu Bei said in the front row again.

"I saw you downstairs in the magazine last time. Are you and Azhi colleagues?" His voice always smiled, "I look quite young."

Xu Bei is very strange.

He clearly stated Xie Xing's identity to him, but he also made a special move.

Moreover, his name is Azhi...

This is the commonly used terminology by Jiang Ruizhi and Chi Yan.

Pei Zhi's breath was disordered. If she got closer, she must have known that she was pretending to be asleep.
To be continued...
