Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!!

Chapter 23



Chapter 22

When these two words fell into the air, Luo Xiuyun seemed to be pricked by a needle, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

Yanyan called her auntie…

Maybe it was because the sunshine in the autumn afternoon was too dazzling, Luo Xiuyun gradually turned red, and looked at this child who was dependent on her in a somewhat bewildered manner.

The waiter who brought her over didn’t notice anything unusual, and said politely: “Madam, please sit here. This is the menu in the store. Do you need a recommendation?”

Luo Xiuyun gave a blank oh, took the menu after sitting down, and flipped through it quickly as if trying to avoid something.

On the beautifully printed menu, fresh and awkward nouns flashed before her eyes, glowing like phantoms, making her dizzy.

She never ate these things, and she couldn’t understand the difference between the two strings of similar-looking foreign characters, CARAMELMOCHA and CAPPUCCINO.

Pei Yan seemed to see that she was at a loss, and took the initiative to say: “The coffee here tastes very pure. You don’t like to drink too bitter things, so why don’t you try caramel macchiato?”

His words advance and retreat in a certain way, and there is an unspoken indifference hidden in his concern.

Such a tone is very similar to that graceful and beautiful woman who lives in Pei’s family.

This weird thought briefly crossed Luo Xiuyun’s mind.

She still didn’t know what a caramel macchiato was, but at least she understood the word caramel and nodded quickly. The waiter smiled and bowed to them and left.

Yan Yan still remembered that she didn’t like to drink bitter things. When she was sick, she would twist her nose and pour down the medicine, which made Yan Yan laugh at her. Why are adults still afraid of taking medicine.

The long and rich memories were torn open, and Luo Xiuyun suddenly forgot the sound of “auntie” and all the subtle strangeness, and hurriedly smiled at Pei Yan.

Pei Yan in front of him was wearing clothes of good material, with a cute and handsome appearance, and he was living a very prosperous life at first glance, his parents must have treated him well.

But at the same time, she also saw a trace of fatigue on Pei Yan’s face. His right hand resting on the table was unconsciously clenched. In the past, he would make similar small movements every time he was tired from studying.

Luo Xiuyun couldn’t help having a sore nose.

She whispered: “Don’t be too tired, take more rest.”

Pei Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, hesitated for a moment, and shook his head slightly: “I’m not tired, don’t worry about me.”

The awkward atmosphere at first gradually relaxed.

Luo Xiuyun took a sip of the caramel macchiato that was just served, and it really wasn’t very bitter.

A smile spread across her face: “We Yanyan have grown up and learned a lot.”

Hearing what she said, Pei Yan showed a substandard but more sincere smile: “Well, the outside world is really big.”

Next, Luo Xiuyun smiled and listened to him talking about what happened recently, and her heart was filled with indescribable comfort.

Until he mentions a name.

“…Brother Qing Yuan, is he still used to the life there?”

Speaking of this, Luo Xiuyun was worried and angry, and reflexively said: “I have never seen such a homeless child! Every day when I go out early in the morning and come back in the middle of the night, my home has become his hotel, and my attitude towards studying is still so unreasonable.” !”

Her dissatisfaction with Pei Qingyuan has not been a day or two, and Pei Yan alone has heard it many times.

Hearing her long and repeated complaints, Pei Yan suddenly remembered something: “I still had some old books that I didn’t take away when I moved last time. They take up a lot of space. You can sell them.”

“Those little books?” Luo Xiuyun recalled it for a while, and said indifferently, “Just put it there, it’s okay, in case you need it later.”

“Is it still there?” On the contrary, Pei Yan showed surprise, “Qing…is his bookcase enough?”

“It’s enough, he didn’t tell me.” Luo Xiuyun didn’t think about it, “If it’s not enough, he can clean it up by himself. It’s not a big deal. I gave him a cardboard box as a backup.”

In her understatement, Pei Yan was stunned for a while.

He finally realized clearly that Luo Xiuyun hardly cared about that long-lost biological son at all.

Pei Yan knew that he shouldn’t be grateful for this, but human nature seems to be so despicable, and being favored is always something that makes people secretly happy.

Besides, even he himself was worried about the possible preference of another person.

Pei Yan lowered his eyes and changed the subject: “Grandpa came back from abroad. I met him for the first time a few days ago.”

“Ah, you just came back?” Luo Xiuyun immediately asked nervously, “Is your grandfather good-tempered? Do you like you?”

“Grandpa is very kind and has a gentle temper. He is not at all like my dad. I heard that they always quarrel.”

Pei Huaishan was completely different from the serious and serious rich man Pei Yan imagined, more like an ordinary old man who would go to the market early every day to buy vegetables.

“That’s a good thing.” Luo Xiuyun breathed a sigh of relief, “Your father doesn’t seem to be close to you, and always keeps a straight face. You spend more time with grandpa. If you are so good, he will definitely like you.”

Does grandpa like him?

Pei Yan thinks that he should like it. When he first saw his grandson who had been living abroad for more than ten years, Pei Huaishan touched his head with a lot of emotion and asked a lot of details about his life. Has anyone bullied him in the past? I can’t adapt to the life at home, is there any gift I want…

Even Ye Lanting never asked him these questions.

But unlike the parents who never mentioned the other son, the grandfather still remembered Pei Qingyuan, and even criticized his mother because of his departure.

This made Pei Yan feel as if thousands of ants were eating at the bottom of his heart.

Because there is a word that is always circling in his mind repeatedly.

only.

At least with grandpa, he wasn’t the only grandson who was loved.

There was a faint shadow under Pei Yan’s eyes. He hadn’t had enough sleep for several days. He was either reading a book or suffering from insomnia.

At this moment, amidst the unreserved preference of the woman in front of him, Pei Yan finally couldn’t help but tell the truth of his heart that had nowhere to go.

“I’m afraid grandpa likes him more…” Pei Yan’s right hand clenched tighter and tighter, “I know I’m not as smart as him, even my tutor said so, but I’ve worked very hard.”

“I always have a nightmare these days,” he said in a low voice, “I dreamed that on my birthday, grandpa opened the door and led him in, saying that he would celebrate our birthday together, and then we stood side by side Be there and accept your blessings.”

“But then, no one looked at me anymore, everyone was smiling at him.”

“I was forgotten by everyone, and I didn’t even get a piece of cake in the end.”

Pei Yan didn’t mention that name again, and only used him, who was a little shy, to replace it.

Luo Xiuyun’s heart ached when she heard that, she simply got up and sat beside him, trying to comfort him.

But in the face of this deep fear, words seem meaningless.

She caressed the slightly thin back of her former son, the autumn leaves were quiet outside the glass window, and the passers-by on the street walked slowly holding the child’s hand intimately, as if time had returned to the past.

In this dense and melancholy mood, the corners of Luo Xiuyun’s eyes were slightly wet, and she blurted out: “I’ll celebrate your birthday, okay?”

The grand dusk poured down in the sky, and the colorful colors were overwhelming.

Ji Tong looked at today’s extraordinarily gorgeous sunset through the TV, and his tone was very excited: “Ruan Ruan, would you like to ride the roller coaster again?”

Pei Qingyuan sat on a bench in the amusement park, his face flushed slightly, he immediately shook his head when he heard this, and said firmly: “No.”

Ji Tong still didn’t give up: “Then take the pirate ship!”

“Don’t sit.” Pei Qingyuan walked outside the gate of the amusement park without turning his head, “Go back to the store.”

Ji Tong failed to persuade him to stay, so he had to watch regretfully that the host rode up on the bicycle and rode away as if fleeing from a magic cave.

He felt that it was too hard for the part-time host who went to bed late and woke up early even during the holidays, so he tried every means to lure the host to the amusement park today, wanting him to relax.

After playing a few more relaxing projects, Ji Tong was originally queuing up to ride the roller coaster with the host, only to realize that he was too young to ride, so only the host was hurriedly pushed in.

Ji Tong immediately found a place to change into a magical disappearance, returned to Pei Qingyuan’s consciousness, and experienced the feeling of a VR perspective roller coaster.

I have to say, very exciting.

It’s a pity that the host doesn’t want to play it a second time.

Ji Tong flipped through the photos he had just taken for the host, and couldn’t help but regret: “The host obviously had a good time, and even the expressions are very rich, and he looks more like a high school student than the usual cold one. For example, this one, you like-“

Pei Qingyuan: …

He doesn’t want to hear it!

No man, no matter how ruthless, wants to face a photo of himself being snapped while riding a roller coaster.

When he walked past the photo cabin that came with the roller coaster, he deliberately ignored Ji Tong’s call to go in and take a look at the photos, but he didn’t expect that there was a built-in photography system in his mind.

The boy who rode his bicycle into the evening wind resolutely interrupted him, emphatically saying, “I won’t come to the amusement park again in the future.”

Ji Tong stopped talking, and sighed in frustration: “Okay, listen to the host.”

The 100 kinds of flowers he planted around him have begun to take shape, and the flowers are in full bloom in the deep shade, and the scenery is particularly beautiful.

But looking at this extremely wide emotional zone, Ji Tong always feels a little deserted.

How about building an amusement park here, so that the future host can ride an absolutely safe roller coaster without leaving home.

good idea!

Pei Qingyuan seemed to hear his system humming a particularly cheerful tune again.

He had a vague sense of foreboding.

The evening wind blowing by his side gently brushed his cheeks, before Pei Qingyuan had time to ask, he heard Ji Tong’s happy voice.

“Ruan Ruan, look at the building on the right, it has a huge balcony!”

Pei Qingyuan followed the prestige, and the light beige residential building was bathed in the orange glow, illuminating the lush green plants on the balcony, and the clothes drying beside them were gently swaying in the wind.

“This balcony looks very warm. You can have breakfast while basking in the sun in the morning, and watch movies with hot pot barbecue in the evening. After eating, you can take a walk in circles to enjoy the night view.”

There was reverie and anticipation in the voice he was getting familiar with day by day.

“I found out that there are several houses for rent in the community, and the decoration and price are very suitable… Do you want such a home?”

The clean and fragrant white shirt on the balcony was blown up again by the wind.

Shrouded by the setting sun, the young man gradually slowed down his cycling pace, and looked up at the windows where the aroma of food was wafting out.

Gently respond to trickle into the wind.

“think.”
