Deluge - Chapter 3

[third chapter]

Pei Yu did not add Xu Juan, but Tang Sisi did.

Xu Juan was very stable. Since he decided to put a long line to catch big fish, he was not in a hurry at all, and returned to the clubhouse slowly and continued to drink.

He returned empty-handed, and Hou Shijie and the others would inevitably be amazed, asking what was going on, how sacred this man was, and why did you run away in vain. Xu Juan shook his fingers mysteriously, lay down on the sofa, and began to pretend to be asleep again.

In the evening, everyone had a meal together. Xu Juan didn’t continue to mess around with them, and drove home alone.

Back to his parents’ house.

Xu Juan’s father, Xu Jiren, is a well-known entrepreneur. He is not only rich, but also has excellent reputation. He is a good example for a large number of young entrepreneurs. To say that Xu Jiren has failed in his life, it may be that he gave birth to an unsatisfactory waste son.

But there is an old saying that the fault of a son is not a godfather. Xu Jiren still thinks that there was a problem with his education, which caused Xu Juan to go astray.

He remembered that Xu Juan was obviously not like this at the beginning. There were three children in the Xu family. Xu Juan had a brother and a sister. My sister is a pianist. She has an amazing musical talent since she was a child. In recent years, her artistic attainments have become more and more sophisticated, and she is highly sought after internationally.

And Xu Juan’s life was marked by the age of 20. Before 20, he was better than his older brothers and sisters. He had good grades, participated in various mathematics and physics competitions, often won prizes, and also knew how to draw, calligraphy, and play the piano. , proficient in several foreign languages, he is simply all-round development, doing everything well.

Back then, when the uncles and aunts in the upper class circles mentioned President Xu’s sons and daughters, they all looked envious, especially Xu Juan, who was both good-looking and good-looking, such a good baby son, he couldn’t even ask for it, the Xu family is really The ancestors are virtuous.

Xu Jiren is also proud, and the whole family dotes on Xu Juan.

Therefore, Xu Juan’s 20-year-old coming-of-age ceremony was a big event, and his mother personally prepared it and held it for him.

That day, Rili Wanji’s father and brother left work and rushed back from other places. My sister, who was giving a concert abroad, got on the plane immediately after leaving the stage and rushed home as soon as possible. A large number of relatives and friends came, all of them staring at the moon, watching Young Master Xu on stage, blowing candles, and making wishes.

Xu Juan said: “Today is my twentieth birthday. I’ve thought about it for a long time. Twenty years old is a boundary in life. I don’t know what my future life will be like, but now I only have one wish: from now on. In the future, be brave and be yourself.” The

audience burst into applause.

What a beautiful word to say, all night, everyone’s faces were filled with joyful smiles, and the birthday party ended successfully.

But within a few days, the Xu family couldn’t laugh anymore.

Because Xu Juan did what he said, he really went “bravely to be himself”, and the class didn’t go well, he didn’t practice the qin, and he didn’t draw anymore. He began to spend time and drink with Hou Shijie. The future pillar of the motherland” has transformed into “the second generation ancestor of the extravagant, greedy and wicked”.

At first, his father was almost mad at him, and his mother washed her face in tears all day, trying her best to reflect on herself, is she not caring enough for her younger son? Is the pressure on your child’s schoolwork too much, making him uncomfortable? Good boy, why did he suddenly become like this? It must be mom’s fault.

Xu Juan moved out from home and started a free and single life.

Now that five or six years have passed, and he is about to celebrate his twenty-sixth birthday, his parents finally looked at him and let him fend for himself.

But usually no matter what, if he makes a big fuss outside, he still has to be taught a few words.

Today is a typical one. The scandal between him and the entertainment star has become a hot topic, and the whole family has lost all face. Xu Jiren originally planned to return to China on the weekend, but he came back early today just to scold him in person.

In the living room, Xu Juan sat upright, and the nanny Aunt Zhao put the hot tea in front of him and gave him a sympathetic look.

Xu Jiren has been scolding for ten minutes, and is a little tired now, and seeing Xu Juan’s appearance that he doesn’t talk back but doesn’t give in, he’s really tired. He sighed, let go of his tone, and said to Xu Juan, “How is your company doing?”

Xu Juan started a company by himself, and is serious about making games, but these days, the game industry is not easy to do. Juan didn’t know whether it was because of his lack of ability or not. The company has been in business for several years and struggled on the brink of bankruptcy every year, but miraculously, it never went bankrupt.

Could Xu Jiren not know the situation? I asked this on purpose to express concern.

Xu Juan said: “It’s okay, there is a big project under development recently.”

“…”

It’s still a big project, the bigger the project, the more the compensation. Xu Jiren was so worried that he couldn’t help but say, “Do you need me to find a few people to help you?”

“No, thank you Dad.” Xu Juan smiled, with a very good attitude. He has always acted rebelliously and pretended to be good-natured, which made Xu Jiren unable to express his anger. In the end, he could only sigh and let him be happy.

But even if Xu Jiren doesn’t scold, Xu Juan has self-knowledge. He knew very well that when he was outside, he was not relying on the identity of the second young master of the Xu family? If he wasn’t Xu Juan, how could those Yingying Yanyan rush him to sleep?

Xu Juan yawned and became increasingly disillusioned.

When he was 20 years old, he shouted “Be brave to be yourself”, but this year he is 26 years old. In fact, he still doesn’t understand what “self” is.

But Xu Juan is not a sentimental person, he likes to make others sentimental for him.

He stayed at home, Xu Jiren went back to the study to work, he went up to the second floor alone and went back to his room to rest.

After washing up and lying on the bed, Xu Juan opened WeChat and first checked Tang Sisi’s circle of friends.

Tang Sisi is a typical delicate girl. She manages her circle of friends as beautifully as people. She shares delicious food, selfies, and scenery, and occasionally shares a few literary and artistic love songs.

Xu Juan opened Tang Sisi’s private chat: “Hi.”

Tang Sisi replied in seconds: “Yes, Mr. Xu, what’s the matter?” Xu Juan said: ” I

want to ask you something, don’t tell anyone else.”

A hunch: “What’s the matter, about Teacher Pei?”

“It’s really smart.” Xu Juan sent a smile, “What’s his name, Pei Yu?”

“Pei Yu.”

Before Xu Juan could ask other questions, Tang Sisi took the initiative to answer: ” Twenty-six, single, teaching Chinese. It is said that he skipped grades several times when he was in school. He is a man of our Hongda. After graduation, he stayed at the school to teach. This year is his third year of work.”

Tang Sisi is so attentive, Xu Juan does not Accidentally, he asked: “Have you ever been in a relationship?” “Have you

talked about it.” Tang Sisi said, “His ex-girlfriend is our dean’s daughter. The two have been together for half a year. They broke up at the beginning of this year.

“What’s the reason?”

“I don’t know the reason, but this is a popular gossip in our school. They all say that it’s because Teacher Pei doesn’t understand the style, like an iceberg, and can’t make girls happy. Every time they date, he is the His ex-girlfriend took the initiative to ask him out, and he was always busy today and not free tomorrow, which broke people’s hearts.”

“…”

Xu Juan smiled at the phone: “I heard that the university teacher is very leisurely, why? , is he very busy?”

“Yeah, he is not an ordinary university teacher.” Tang Sisi paused for a few seconds, and then sent a large string of text, I don’t know where it was copied, the dense text on it introduced Pei Yu Xu Juan glanced at the achievements, awards, and certain projects he participated in. He didn’t understand what some awards were. Anyway, he knew that Mr. Pei was very good.

Tang Sisi said, “Mr. Xu, you really don’t like girls?”

“Yes.” Xu Juan said.

Tang Sisi hesitated for a moment: “Then you said this afternoon…”

“Didn’t I tell you, Teacher Pei?” Xu Juan said euphemistically, “You should study hard, don’t waste Pei Yu’s hard work.”

“…”

Tang Sisi didn’t say anything, probably because she was discouraged. After a long time, she asked knowingly, “Why are you asking about this, do you really like our teacher Pei?”

“Of course.” Xu Juan calmly said, “Your school Is anyone chasing him?”

Tang Sisi said, “Yes, since he broke up with his ex-girlfriend, the people chasing him range from female teachers to female students, and they can line up from the back door of Hongda to the Nanmen bus stop.”

“… ”

But he’s hard to chase. He puts on a cold face every day, which can freeze people to death. He doesn’t accept gifts from others. If he knows who gave them, he will be punished. But whoever made him look good Well, the handsome guy has good morals. The more this is the case, the more difficult the suitors will be. Oh, every time he appears, there will be a crowd of onlookers on the side of the road, which is simply a beautiful scenery line in our school.

” I see, you give me his WeChat.” Xu Juan said, “I will meet him.”

Tang Sisi: “…”

Tang Sisi obeyed and gave Pei Yu’s WeChat account to Xu Juan.

In fact, Tang Sisi didn’t have any friends with Pei Yu, but she was in an official school group, and Pei Yu was also in this group. Tang Sisi clicked on Pei Yu’s profile and sent it directly to Xu Juan.

It is not difficult to add WeChat friends. Xu Juan wrote in the verification message: “Hello Mr. Pei, I have something important, can you talk about it in detail?”

He didn’t say who he was. Passed, and took the initiative to ask who he was.

Xu Juan introduced himself and said, “I’m sorry, I want to ask you about Tang Sisi’s follow-up.”

This message was sent, but Pei Yu didn’t reply for a long time.

Xu Juan understood that he had taken the initiative to take this step, and even the dullest person should realize that something was wrong.

Is it because he is a straight man, he is not very enlightened in this regard? Xu Juan felt the desire to quit for a moment, and being a straight man was actually a little tired. But he remembered Pei Yu’s face again, and his retreating intentions suddenly disappeared.

Finally, Pei Yu replied, not as slow as he thought: “What are you trying to do?”

“I don’t want to do anything.” Xu Juan didn’t speak, just typed.

Sometimes text is better to use than voice. He said, “If I say, I fell in love with Teacher Pei at first sight, would you believe it?” The

message was sent, but there was no reply for a long time.

Xu Juan stretched out on the bed and couldn’t help but guess at Pei Yu’s expression at this moment. When he thought of the cracks on that perfect face, the bad taste in his heart grew more and more.

I thought Pei Yu would scold him, but after waiting for a long time, he still didn’t reply.

Xu Juan sent a question mark over, and sure enough, a red exclamation mark popped up on the interface: The other party has turned on friend verification, and you are not his friend.

Xu Juan laughed out loud while lying on the bed, and decided to go to Hongda in person tomorrow to play with a formal script.
