Chapter 16: Foolish Man-Sheep Comes to the Jiang Home
The Jiang home, a little past 1PM.
What seemed to be happening downstairs? Out of curiosity, Wei Han and Jiang Chengrui also walked to the window and looked down from the third floor.
A dark blue Audi was parked by the curb. Pei Yuyang stepped out of the car with his shiny leather shoes. He was dressed in a purple suit, shirt collar freely opened, and the purple earrings on his ears were eye-catching as always.
Wei Han saw that Pei Yuyang came after carefully dressing up, and this new car probably came from his garage. When he opened the trunk, there were actually all kinds of hats inside.
What the hell was this?
The hair in front of his forehead moved with the wind. Pei Yuyang’s just perfect features suited his fair face, born handsome, elegant and outstanding. At this moment, hand holding roses, he faced the third floor window and continuously blew kisses.
Wei Han: “……”
Dang, really one flirtatious, weirdo of a man.
Little Yi’s face was filled with excitement. “Wow, Purple Sheep came to throw his life away again.”
Jiang Chengrui saw this and had a burst of goosebumps, angrily cursed, “Fuck! This man actually came again, really is ‘wounds healed, pain forgotten’.”
Words finished, Jiang Chengrui intended to go downstairs to drive Pei Yuyang off again. He silently vowed that this time, he must not be soft-hearted and lenient with his feet again: best would be to kick him flying.
Wei Han saw through Jiang Chengrui’s heart and hurriedly pulled him. “Little Jiang, calm down. Since Pei Yuyang has been pestering you for so long, it’s reckoned that if you rely on force, you’d only settle it temporarily. In my opinion, it’s better to let him come up, and you sit down and have a proper discussion.”
“Exactly, I agree! Big brother, you see, Purple Sheep also specially bought you so many hats,” Little Yi also smiled and persuaded.
Jiang Chengrui immediately gave his little brother a cold stare. “I see you’re thinking about the snacks and toys, right? Thinking of letting him come in and give them you? Clearly, I’ve told you: don’t accept anything.”
Little Yi a bit angry: “Hmph! Big brother, you’re always like this. The snacks and toys from before, Purple Sheep clearly gave them to me. I accepted them willingly, so they’re my stuff. But you took everything and insisted on returning them to him.”
“And, although you kept it hidden and didn’t tell me, but I know: you also paid Purple Sheep for the money spent on his hospitalization and shots. Obviously, the person has an awful lot of money and this little bit of money isn’t rare at all, but you’re so stubborn! Everyday you’re busy working, making yourself work to death, but also hurting your body…”
“Little Yi!”
Jiang Chengrui shouted, suddenly interrupting his brother’s words, his brows tightly knitted together.
Seeing the situation on the brink of domestic warfare, Wei Han hurriedly blocked in front of Little Yi, protecting him, and amiably placated Jiang Chengrui.
“Little Jiang, Little Yi sometimes isn’t sensible, and some things you need to slowly teach him. Don’t be bothered too much by it. Listen to me: let Pei Yuyang come up first. If your and his affairs can be resolved peacefully, wouldn’t it be to everyone’s satisfaction?”
Soon after, Pei Yuyang entered the house, face flushed with success. He didn’t know that because of him, he’d almost provoked a fight between the two brothers of the Jiang family.
“It turns out that Wei Han, you’re also here. I also thought it strange that Curlie agreed to let me come up today, haha, it seems to be your credit. Thank you so much,” Pei Yuyang leaned closer to Wei Han, patted him and whispered softly in his ear, lightly laughing.
“Uh, can you stay a little further away from me? It’s too dangerous to stand together with you.”
Wei Han forced a smile. Pei Yuyang, this guy coming in was a complete thorn in the sides of the five Chihuahuas. Eager to protect their owner, they seemed ready to attack at any time.
But Pei Yuyang, even after being bitten once, was still indifferent as before. After saying a few courteous words to Wei Han, he went to stick to Jiang Chengrui.
“Curlie, did you see just now? I bought so many hats for you, aren’t you happy?’ Pei Yuyang asked with a huge ripple of laughter.
Jiang Chengrui’s complexion was obviously very bad: “Mr. Pei, I don’t need them. Please take them away.”
Pei Yuyang shrugged his shoulders. For Jiang Chengrui to not appreciate his kindness, he’d long been accustomed to it. “Alas, then I can only put it in my family home first, together with your clothes, cars, flowers, and so on. I’ll give them all to you when you come to my house.”
“Fuck! You damned pervert, I’m not going back,” Jiang Chengrui couldn’t help but shout.
Pei Yuyang automatically filtered it out. Attracted by the fragrance, he came to the dining table. “Eh, are you still eating? It looks very delicious. Do you mind if I join you for lunch?”
The owner, Jiang Chengrui, was about to oppose, when the peeved Little Yi deliberately expressed a different view from his big brother, “Of course I don’t mind, I warmly welcome you with both hands and feet.”
“…Uh, it’s not good to be hungry, and the food is getting cold. Let’s finish eating before we start talking again,” Wei Han finally inserted a sentence. Dragged on for so long, his stomach was already starved flat.
“……”
Jiang Chengrui couldn’t help but hold his forehead. How could things have developed to this?
At the dining table, Pei Yuyang barely moved his chopsticks, staring at Jiang Chengrui opposite to him the entire time. Wei Han, sitting next to him, was unable to stand the burning eyes and quickly changed positions with Pei Yuyang.
Once again, Pei Yuyang’s whole body stuck to Jiang Chengrui.
“Please don’t eat so close to me,” Jiang Chengrui glanced at Pei Yuyang.
“OK, understood.”
“Also, don’t talk so close to me,” Jiang Chengrui stepped on his foot.
“Uh-huh.”
“Don’t pick food for me,” Jiang Chengrui hit his hand with the chopsticks.
“Oh oh.”
“Stop staring at me!”
“This servant [1] can’t do it,” Pei Yuyang wailed. He took out his cell phone and pleaded, “Curlie, please let me take a photo, okay? This way, I can still look at you when I go back. I want to look at you when I go to sleep.”
“Fuck off!”
Wei Han and Little Yi: “……”
After the meal, Wei Han was dazzled blind by these two men, and was very certain now that Pei Yuyang wasn’t just here for his family’s baby pig, but actually liked Jiang Chengrui, okay? And it’s already to the abnormal, idiotic fool stage, this Foolish Man-Sheep, tch tch…
After clearing up the dishes, Pei Yuyang very attentively helped to wash the dishes with a smiling expression lingering in a pair of eyes. However, because all of his attention was on Jiang Chengrui, Pei Yuyang accidentally broke two bowls, and inevitably ate two of Jiang Chengrui’s fists.
“How in the world will you let me go? I really don’t want to have anything to do with you.”
“NO, Curlie, these words aren’t true oh. You’re friends with Wei Han, right? I’m also, so that’s how we’re also friends. How can there not be any association?”
“When did I become friends with you!” Jiang Chengrui was speechless. Rich people’s brains were different from ordinary people.
To the side, Wei Han felt a little awkward, always feeling like a big light bulb. In fact, he really wanted to pull Jiang Chengrui aside and tell him that Pei Yuyang fancied him and was obviously pursuing him.
But Jiang Chengrui looked like a straight man. Wei Han was afraid of provoking him.
“Big brother, it’s been so long, can’t you see that Purple Sheep likes you ah?” Little Yi straightforwardly said.
The other three people: “……”
“Bang!” The sound of the door opening broke the awkward atmosphere. The five bouncing and vivacious dogs also immediately shrunk into the corner. Standing at the entrance was a tall, long-haired woman, approximately twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. It was Jiang Chenghui.
“Sis…sister! Why are you suddenly back? You didn’t tell us in advance.” Jiang Chengrui’s face changed, immediately greeted her and hurriedly took the bag from her hand.
“……” Jiang Chenghui didn’t speak, but her face was taut. Unlike her two younger brothers, she had a totally indifferent atmosphere, a repelling people from a thousand miles distance look, and seemed difficult to approach.
Wei Han was completely unable to associate her with the smiling girl in the photo.
“I’m sorry, Silly Han, can I bother you to leave first? My sister prefers it quiet, so she’s not…too fond of having other outsiders in the house.”
“Yeah, Brother Wei Wei, Purple Sheep, you…you guys should go home first today.” Little Yi’s face also showed some difficulties.
So soon after, Wei Han and Pei Yuyang [2], the two outsiders, were “invited” out of the Jiang home.
Downstairs, Wei Han looked up at the third floor and was a bit worried. “Hey, Pei Yuyang, I feel that their sister seemed very upset. I don’t know whether something would happen to Little Jiang and Little Yi.”
Pei Yuyang didn’t reply. With a rare serious and solemn expression, he was turning something over in his mind. After a while, he said, “There shouldn’t be anything. Wei Han, I’ll send you back home.”
“Mm, let’s go.”
After two days, Wei Han called Jiang Chengrui to ask about his situation. About that day’s events, he smiled and said nothing, and just complained that the two days of cramming for the exams were exhausting. Wei Han encouraged him with a few words, telling him that anyway, after the exam tomorrow, he’d be liberated.
Because of the remarriage, Mother Wei came to the new city, so she quit her original job and planned to be a housewife at home.
But the big son Wei Han, didn’t know how much more virtuous he was than her, usually not mentioning cooking, but basically all of the housework were done by him. Qi Hao was often not home, and she was even more idle. Fortunately, she recently found a job and helped in a friend’s flower shop.
This afternoon, it just happened that the lady boss wasn’t in the shop. There weren’t enough staff, and Mother Wei called the two sons of her family over to help sort out the fresh bouquets that had just been delivered.
Approximately busy for three hours and knowing that they had exams tomorrow, Mother Wei also let them go home first. But Qi Zhifan seemed to have other things to do. He went with Wei Han a way and then changed directions.
“Qi Zhifan, where are you going? In that direction, I remember that taking the side streets and passing through two, three alleys would be near Chengyu Academy.”
Qi Zhifan nodded. “I just want to go there to deal with something.”
Wei Han heard and his eyes lighted. “Can it be, you slag gong, you suddenly repented and plan to get Lu Yan back?”
“…I have nothing to do with him.” Qi Zhifan had an indignant expression between his brows. His brother seemed to really care about Lu Yan. Was he really interested in him?
“Okay, okay, just pretend I didn’t say anything. Then godspeed; I won’t send you.” Wei Han waved his hand, actually turning around and walking away first. He was going to buy some food on the way and then take the bus home.
Qi Zhifan stared at his back for a while and thought about going together. He was planning to buy some egg tarts and cream puffs to bring back and give to his foodie older brother.
When he came to the corner, Wei Han was suddenly slammed into by a brawny man and couldn’t help but step back a few steps. With an aching shoulder, Wei Han glared around, raising his head to see which guy was walking around without eyes. The result was that with one glance, he was frightened.
The brawny man was born with a fierce look, and there were also terrible tattoos on his arms. He was followed by five or six rogue hooligans behind him. The group of people, no matter how one looked at it, didn’t look like they came from a good crop. Wei Han naturally shrunk his neck and obediently gave way.
These people didn’t care about Wei Han at all, discussing matters while walking.
“Big Brother, Brother Tao asked around and this afternoon, that pretty boy will definitely go to Chengyu to handle some affairs. He’d already sent a group of people to wait in the alley long ago,” a tall and thin younger brother said to the brawny man.
“Yeah, we’ll immediately block the back. Attacking from front and back, for sure that kid can’t escape,” another fat man gave a sinister laugh.
The leading brawny man listened and showed a cruel sneer, “Hmph, we must give that kid surnamed Qi a small lesson today, dared to bully our Brother Tao’s little cousin.”
What? Surnamed Qi! Wei Han was instantly stupefied in place.
