Ch10 - Visiting (2)

Special thanks to Random Stranger for proofreading.

…………. 

Pei Xian stayed alone in the huge main hall. The luxurious and dazzling decorations were not foreign to him. He went directly to the rest area under the floor-to-ceiling windows and poured a cup of fragrant rose tea. As he drank his tea he quietly watched the deer jumping and peacocks walking outside the window and sparrows running here and there. 

Today it was hot and the sun was bright and warm- the weather was surprisingly good. Pei Xian felt like a wonderful layer of warmth was laid on his body. 

Wen Zhuo walked down the stairs arrogantly, watching this quiet and beautiful picture painted by Pei Xian’s side profile. He noticed how Pei Xian looked more like Xiao Yuhang. No wonder Gu Han was fascinated by this guy. He was suddenly jealous. His eyes were about to bleed. 

It wasn’t until someone came to the table that Pei Xian pulled back his chaotic thoughts from the blue sky and white clouds, and looked up at Wen Zhuo with a dull expression with “Who is this?” written all over his face? The protagonist of this book is Zhou Kai, and even Mrs. Gu doesn’t have many opportunities to show her face, let alone other passers-by in the Gu family.

Wen Zhuo understood his expression condescendingly and said coldly: “You don’t need to know who I am. Either way, you won’t have anything to do with the Gu family after today. Why don’t you take a look at this beautiful place? After all, it will be hard for you to see such a marvellous place again.”

After his transmigration, to recuperate his injured soul, Pei Xian seldom used his brain. It took him a while to realise that the other guy was probably here to find fault. Thinking about it, he can understand – Xiao Yuhang is far away in a foreign country. If he wants to pick something, he has to travel across the ocean. If a counterfeit product is finally delivered to his door, the whole family will have to send him out and bury him grandly, to make an example for others. 

But Gu Han’s attitude was very clear- he would take care of his mother, and he cared less about others. Hmm… Anyway, he was to serve five tigresses on this trip, and the males were not included in the bill.

Pei Xian refilled his tea gracefully and quietly, then propped his chin and turned his head to continue admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window, as if nothing had happened. 

Wen Zhuo was a little dumbfounded, he was so embarrassed to be left on the spot like air, he was at a loss for what to do. He gritted his teeth and unbuttoned his suit, and sat down gracefully across from him, “How long have you known Gu Han? Brother Gu Han and I have been friends since childhood.”

Pei Xian sighed in his heart, this guy is too annoying to ignore. He would have to answer eventually. “I have known Mr. Gu for two weeks.” 

“Hehehe…” Wen Zhuo laughed and thought, “A dumb little mouse that hasn’t been out of the sewer for two days.”

He hit his hand on the tea table to reveal a beautiful watch, “You may not know, Brother Gu Han is very good at loving people, he specially came when I graduated three years ago and gave me this famous watch. Does it look good?” 

Pei Xian was bored, and slowly slid his fingers across the tea table, “Jaeger’s master series, ranging from 70,000, 170,000 to 870,000 have the same appearance, so some people always say the one they brought is the Billion.”

Hearing this, Wen Zhuo felt embarrassed, and slowly withdrew his arm. It’s impossible. Does the sewer boy know how to look out for a famous watch? This guy must be kidding. He probably doesn’t even know where the store door opens! 

Thinking like this, Wen Zhuo stubbornly said “Brother Gu Han gave me the billion of course.”

“Mr. Anonymous, then I suggest you kill Gu Han on the spot later.” Pei Xian raised his closed right hand unintentionally. Since he was left-handed, his right wrist had a jaeger ultra-thin top-notch moon phase. “He probably likes you so much, he specially sent you last year’s launch model three years ago.”  

This morning, Gu Han asked Pei Xian to choose a watch from his collection to wear. Thinking about facing five aunts and a mother, he didn’t want to be too showy, so he chose Jaeger, which was relatively low-key.

“Yes, what’s wrong with it?” Pei Xian answered frankly, leisurely. He leaned on the sofa and didn’t even look up at him.  

This was the other side of Pei Xian that Gu Han had never seen before. In his eyes, cold and mean outsiders are all rubbish, and it is worthless for him to take a hard look.

“You, you… aren’t you using a broken watch?” Wen Zhuo was still too tender to speak coherently because of Pei Xian’s provocation, “Brother Gu Han has given me so many things here since I was a child, it really can’t be compared with someone with no name!” 

Pei Xian reluctantly gave Wen Zhuo a look, took out the black gold card that Gu Han hadn’t had time to take back, accidentally flipped it to the back, stamped with Gu Han’s signature in gold, and then cut out a piece of rose spice paper with the card.

Wen Zhuo instantly felt like he had been hit by a thunderbolt, his father didn’t have an unlimited black gold card, but his uncle had one and his aunt He Manyun was not even allowed to use it. 

Giving this card to someone is like saying the recipient can bankrupt them and they will also recognize it. It is unconditional and unlimited love and trust. Wen Zhuo felt that he had been dumped more than 200 times in the same place, and his face was burning hot.

Xiao Yuhang’s stand-in can get this kind of treatment, but he, a dignified young master of the Wen family who grew up with Gu Han since he was a child, is not a fart in the end!!      

Wen Zhuo completely tore off his pretentious face and jumped over the small round tea table, grabbed the black gold card, and threw it on the table, yelling, “You thief! Thief! Did you steal it? I want to call the police!”     

“Noisy! What’s the noise all about?” Mrs. Gu, who came down the stairs, stopped Wen Zhuo sharply.      

The second younger sister He Manyun who stood behind her had a livid face. She doubted her husband’s family’s IQ. How could they produce such an idiot who couldn’t stay calm?     

“Mrs. Gu, he stole Brother Gu Han’s credit card.” Wen Zhuo went crazy, he ignored the signals his aunt kept sending him.  

He Manyun couldn’t bear it anymore, “Wen Zhuo, you are in front of elders, is this how to talk in front of them?”     

Mrs. Gu looked back at her thoughtfully, and the other three sisters also stopped whispering quickly.      

“Who is talking nonsense here? I gave him the card.” Gu Han was punished for kneeling by his mother, the door of the Buddhist hall was not closed and he hurriedly ran down when he heard the noise outside.     

“Gu, Gu…Brother Gu Han.” Wen Zhuo gnashed his teeth when he saw him soften immediately, and called out cautiously. 

Gu Han glanced at him coldly, and walked straight to Pei Xian, “What’s going on?” 

Pei Xian, who was originally arrogant and mean, didn’t have many expressions on his face, but his sharp eyes receded, looking soft and calm. He said indifferently, “It’s okay we were just having a conversation. Young Master Wen is just a little excited.” 

Pei Xian rolled his eyes in his heart and pretended to be obedient. He had been working hard for more than 20 years. He knows when to show his cards. This time he smartly remained an amenable person.

This child is a master. He Manyun’s heart skipped a beat. Before she could figure out how to save the situation, Wen Zhuo had already jumped into the hole that Pei Xian dug. 

“What conversation? You are a second-hand counterfeit!” Wen Zhuo didn’t care about everyone’s face at all. He scolded Pei Xian like this, which was like scolding Gu Han and Mrs. Gu – Gu Han found second-hand counterfeit goods, and Mrs. Gu treats second-hand counterfeit goods to dinner without any prejudice. 

Since they were very close, Wen Zhuo yelling at Pei Xian looked extraordinarily fierce, as if he was about to strike in the next second. 

Pei Xian took advantage of the situation and leaned into Gu Han’s arms as if he was frightened. His expression was always small and flat, but the tears in his eyes were very pitiful and innocent. He took the opportunity to look sideways at the crowd, raised his head, and winked at Gu Han in an extremely concealed manner.

Gu Han knew to close his arms and take him back two steps, suppressing his anger, and calmly said: “Mom, aunts, I’m sorry to make such a mess. I’m afraid I won’t be able to eat today’s meal. We will be going home now. We will invite everyone another day to eat.”      

Mrs. Gu seemed to see the small actions of the two of them, but she didn’t expose them nor did she persuade them to stay. “Gu Han, remember to go back and kneel enough.”     

Gu Han has already embraced Pei Xian walking out of the door, he turned his head and said respectfully, “Got it.”      

“Wen Zhuo, are you crazy?” He Manyun saw Gu Han turn his face, the elder sister was unpredictable, knowing that this scene was completely screwed up so she hurriedly made this idiotic nephew return. 

Mrs. Gu sat on the sofa drinking tea with her elder sister, third younger sister, and fourth younger sister as if she had nothing to do, and waited for lunch. It was not until He Manyun confronted Wen Zhuo and sent him back that Mrs Gu said, “In the future, don’t invite outsiders to come home for dinner. It will make Hanhan unhappy. And never try to act like this again.” Mrs. Gu put down her teacup and directly looked at the second sister. 

What He Manyun said to Wen Zhuo was both true and false. Mrs. Gu didn’t like Pei Xian who came out of nowhere, but neither did she intend to marry her child to the Wen family. To put it bluntly, it was wishful thinking between He Manyun and the Wen family.

“Sister, you can’t say that. If I didn’t give you the lead, would you know that this person is powerful today? Wen Zhuo just has a straightforward personality and doesn’t rub the sand in his eyes. He’s still a good child.” He Manyun was not a stupid person. In the beginning, when everyone was chatting about it, she had proposed to bring Wen Zhuo to dinner to join in the fun, and the eldest sister had just put on a noncommittal attitude, wanting him to test Pei Xian.  

(TN:- rubbing Sand in one’s eyes :- like having a pretentious personality. If I am correct) 

“I think this kid is unusual. You saw how easily he can make Wen Zhuo angry?” The Third Sister had seen everything clearly and shook her head. 

The fourth younger sister couldn’t help persuading: “Elder sister’s children and grandchildren have their blessings. Don’t we need to take care of young people who love to come and go (who are frivolous)? (as in don’t we need to get rid of PX)”

Mrs Gu gently rubbed the pattern on the cup body, “Being strong has great benefits.” 

The four younger sisters: “???”

“I’m afraid that Hanhan’s heart for Xiao Yuhang is still alive, and it would be nice if there is a big fuss.” Mrs. Gu sipped her tea very gracefully, “Is his name Pei Xian? I think he is okay.” 

He Manyun was convinced her elder sister’s rank was not comparable to that of ordinary people. Does this mean that the snipe and the clam will compete for the fisherman’s benefit?!

The black Rolls-Royce Phantom drove steadily on the expressway around the city. The two people who escaped from the drama collapsed in their leather seats. In front of their mother and four aunts, it was so fucking exciting to run after pretending to be aggressive! 

The two were sweating profusely. Though Gu Han had a system that forcibly made him bound with Pei Xian, he could admit that Pei Xian was admirable.  

“It’s so exciting, my heart is beating so fast.” Pei Xian leaned on the seat and opened the neckline meticulously. 

Gu Han gave him a look of “what a coincidence”, “Me too, if you don’t believe me, touch it.”

The two people crossed their arms and touched each other’s chest, their hearts beating in the palms of their hands, like a pair of desperate mandarin ducks. 

“The guy almost beat me up.” Pei Xian sighed with lingering fear, “Mr. Gu, next time there is this kind of business, please outsource it. My ability is too limited.”

“Sorry, I don’t know how Wen Zhuo got there. He was not like this when he was a child.” Gu Han rubbed the soft hair on Pei Xian’s forehead and said, “Little Pei, don’t be scared.” 

After sweating so much, Pei Xian’s forehead was a bit cold, and Gu Han’s warm hands felt very comfortable when he touched him. Pei Xian squinted his eyes and seemed to want to sleep again.

Seeing that Pei Xian was about to fall asleep, Gu Han added maliciously: “This matter is probably not over yet.” 

 “Ah???” Pei Xian woke up completely startled, jumped up and hugged Gu Han’s arm, “Brother, can we discuss this? Can I refund the money back to you?”

“Keep dreaming!” Gu Han let out a sinister laugh. He raised Pei Xian’s tender chin, “I want you to refund 27.03 million cents, so if you have it then you can do it!” 

Pei Xian, who was greedy for money, mistakenly boarded a thief boat. 

Throwing away Gu Han’s arm, he lowered his head in silence for a while and took out Gu Han’s cell phone.

 “Are you angry?” Gu Han leaned over to look at it.

Pei Xian was chatting with the customer service of the famous high-end online takeaway Duck Club.

【Hi, may I ask if you have a duck that looks like Xiao Yuhang? It has to be good-natured, thick-skinned, and capable of tearing things up, and the price has to be good, I have the money to keep it for a long time.]

“Pei! Xian!” Gu Han’s head was aching. He really wanted to hang him up and beat him up.

Pei Xian dodged left and right in the narrow car with an innocent face, “You don’t want to refund the money, can I subcontract the project?!”
