C328 I Don't Want to Hold onto Hope
Li Xi learned a little more about Zhan Mu Si's background from Zhou Zhuo Yun. It turned out that apart from controlling the best killers and operating a considerable amount of firearms, Zhan Mu Si was also controlling the weapons. He was also controlling more than 60% of the international jewelry business. No wonder he could enjoy everything so extravagantly. Looking at the castle behind him, she did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.
"Why didn't Pei Shao accompany you?" Zhou Zhuo Yun couldn't help but ask.
"He had some urgent matters to deal with in America. I didn't tell him I wanted to come here." Li Xi did not forget her promise to Pei Jun Yong, although she chose to hide it not entirely because of this promise.
"You will scare him." Zhou Zhuo Yun did not think that such courage should be rewarded.
"So I did not plan to let him know immediately." Li Xi smiled and curled her lips, then frowned. "I still did not understand why he brought you here. I hope everything will go smoothly tomorrow."
"Rest early. I'm afraid I can't sleep casually tomorrow." Zhou Zhuo Yun sent Li Xi back to her room.
"Good night." She felt a lot more at ease when she saw Zhou Zhuo Yun and Li Xi.
"Good night." Zhou Zhuo Yun closed the door for Li Xi. He did not know what Zhan Mu Si was thinking, but when he saw Li Xi, the confusion in his heart disappeared.
Li Xi looked at her phone for a long time before she fell asleep, as if she was looking forward to something. But she did not want to think about what she was looking forward to. The only way she did not want to be disappointed was to let herself not have hope at all. In the end, Li Xi still turned off her phone. She and the baby both needed a full sleep. - - -
When Li Xi entered sleep, Pei Jun Ting and Su Yan were already sitting in the dining room. It was Su Yan who made it personally, and it was her best spaghetti. In the past, when they were racing, they would often eat this kind of meal first. The red mince meat represented red and fiery. It indicated that they could have good results.
"What should I do? My culinary skills haven't improved in all these years. You can't laugh at me." Su Yan was a little embarrassed.
Pei Jun Ting did not say anything. He picked up the fork and took a big swig. "It still tastes the same. Not bad."
"Junting, will you blame me for hiding my identity as my bodyguard from you?" Su Yan smiled and curled her lips, but she still did not seem to be able to relax.
"Bodyguards are just your job. It does not affect us being friends." Pei Jun Ting raised the goblet in his hand.
"Thank you." Su Yan also raised the goblet. There was a flash in her eyes.
The dinner was a little dull, but Su Yan did not feel anything. Everything seemed to have returned to the feeling in the past. Men still had a cool feeling. Her satisfaction came from this kind of company and looks. It was already a very happy feeling for him to be able to stay by her side like this. One had to know that it was always her who followed behind him like a tail.
Su Yan did not know that Pei Shao basically spent most of his dinner with Li Xi. With Li Xi's dinner, there would never be silence. Little women would always let men participate in all kinds of topics. That kind of atmosphere also gave Pei Jun Ting a lot of feelings. He could not deny that he relied on women and that family. That was his and her family. He really cherished it.
"Su Yan, do you want to go back to the country?" Pei Jun Ting put down the fork in his hand.
"You want to take me back?" The woman's eyes were full of expectation.
"My focus is now leaning towards the country. This will make it easier for me to take care of you." Pei Jun Ting picked up the napkin, but he did not look at the anticipation in the woman's eyes.
"I will listen to you." Su Yan wanted to live well for herself now. She was no longer the bodyguard that was arranged, was she not?
When he heard that she was still alive, he could not wait to fly over. He had never forgotten about her. Was this not enough to explain the problem? This man had never known what love was. It was good that he could stay by his side. Presumably, that so-called wife is also a form of marriage, she doesn't want to mind. They could have different kinds of waiting.
"Then I'll go back tomorrow to help you arrange it, then arrange for an assistant to come and pick you up." Pei Jun Ting took out his phone as he spoke.
"Junting." Su Yan's expression stiffened. "Are you leaving tomorrow?"
"There are still a lot of things in the company that I need to take care of. I will ask Lan Yu to help you deal with all the details here. Is there a problem?" Pei Jun Ting placed his phone on the table.
"I want to go back with you." Su Yan's fingers were no longer red.
"Then I will ask Lan Yu to arrange the Private aircraft. This will make it more convenient for you." Pei Jun Ting called Lan Yu as he spoke.
"Yes." Su Yan's lips once again wore a faint smile, carrying the sweet taste of a young woman.
"Mr. Pei, Miss Su, there is a young lady called Jin Yu here to visit." The housekeeper walked over in a low voice.
"Jin Yu?" Su Yan looked surprised, "Quickly let her in."
"Yes." The butler answered and walked out.2
"How did she find this place?" Su Yan looked at Pei Jun Ting. She did not know if it was because of his arrangement.
Pei Jun Ting shrugged and did not think it was a question he could answer. He gave the special guard a color and let the special guard push Su Yan to the living room. The phone in his hand had not been hung up yet.
"Older sister Su Yan, is it really you?" Jin Yu was so excited that she almost cried when she saw Su Yan. "I heard Brother Song Han say that you did not believe your ears when you were still alive. I did not think that there would be such a miracle. That's great!"
"Our Little Feather has grown up into a big girl. I almost can't recognize her." Su Yan also excitedly grabbed Jin Yu's hand. In the past, she was just a small tail.
"Where is Brother Jutinol? Brother Song Han said he wants to bring you back with him, right?" Jin Yu put down her bag and sat beside Su Yan.
"He is already arranging the Private aircraft. We will leave tomorrow." Su Yan's face was always wearing a smile. It was faint and sweet, as if ten years had never passed by her.
"That's good." Jin Yu held Su Yan's hand, "Sister Su Yan, can we talk?"
"Okay. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I really want to hear you talk about things that I don't know." Su Yan saw that Pei Jun Ting did not have any intention of coming out, so she brought Jin Yu to her room.
Pei Jun Ting was not in the mood to come out and greet anyone. He looked at the stars in the night sky. Pei Jun Ting felt an indescribable loneliness in his heart. He did not know when he could not hide anything from Li Xi anymore. But Su Yan's matter always felt a little heavy. He did not want Li Xi to feel pressure. He also did not want her to fall into a predicament that she had to face and bear.
