Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
It was just past noon, and the two brothers were drinking again.
There were a few light dishes on the table. The atmosphere was quite good.
When Pei Qingshen just arrived, Officer w.a.n.g was still worried. That troublesome matter had obviously not been resolved yet.
Later on, he felt much more relaxed.
This was how it was at work. If he did not do well, his future might be bleak. However, he was already old and had been doing things right all his life. He would just go with the flow.
Although Pei Qingshen and Officer w.a.n.g liked to bicker, at critical times, they were true friends.
“You should just retire. After w.a.n.g Yi gets married, you can spend time with the family. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Officer w.a.n.g chuckled. He wanted to, but when he thought of his grandson who lived in the laboratory, he felt that there was no hope.
He shook his head, and a stack of red notes appeared in his vision. He looked at it carefully. They looked like tens of thousands of yuan. Pei Qingshen pushed them to him while drinking.
“What is this?” Officer w.a.n.g was sensitive to this kind of thing. He didn’t even dare to touch it, let alone take it.
Pei Qingshen lifted his chin. “Look at how scared you are. w.a.n.g Yi bought me a computer last time. He said he wouldn’t accept my money no matter what. You should keep it for him.”
Officer w.a.n.g was even more puzzled when he heard this. “He helped you buy a computer?”
“Yes.” Pei Qingshen said, “my grandchildren are all busy. He happened to be at my house that day, so I asked him to buy it for me. He is so patient with the elderly. He helped me choose a computer according to my request and even helped me install and test it when it arrived. He also taught me how to use it.”
Officer w.a.n.g leaned forward, as if he had heard something fantastical. “Help you install it? And teach you how to use it?”
Are you sure that’s his grandson?
Officer w.a.n.g hardly saw his grandson. Who would have thought that he would go to Old Pei’s house every day to help him? His grandson had yet to fix his computer!
What was going on?
Why did it feel like Old Pei next door had seen him more than he did?
Pei Qingshen pushed the money towards him again. “Just accept it. If others see it later, it’ll be hard to explain. It’s okay if you lose your reputation now, but don’t implicate me.”
Officer w.a.n.g didn’t hesitate at all and pushed it back. “It’s just a computer. Take it back.”
Pei Qingshen said, “I won’t take it. You take it!”
Officer w.a.n.g said, “you take it!”
The two of them argued for a long time, but neither of them touched the wad of money.
At this moment, a soft little hand suddenly reached up from under the table and took the wad of money with a whoosh.
Officer w.a.n.g and Pei Qingsheng turned around at the same time and saw Pei
Xingxing carefully fold the wads of money and put them into his Ultraman bag.
Today, Pei Qingshen had brought Pei Xingxing along. Just now, when the two were chatting, Pei Xingxing was playing by himself. He ate half a plate of celery mixed with peanuts.
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Pei Xingxing blinked and took out the wads of money in embarra.s.sment…
But he didn’t return them immediately.
He raised his hand in the air, waiting to see what they would do.
“Hahaha!” Officer w.a.n.g looked at him. He was so adorable that he wished he could just tie him up in a gunny sack and take him with him. “Sure, Xingxing, you can keep this money.”
Pei Qingshen looked at his great-grandson in disdain. “Why are you such a money-grubber? Why do you need so much money?”
Pei Xingxing answered very seriously. It was obvious that he had planned this for a long time. “I’ll treat Ms. Su Ji and Ms. Zhuzhu to a drink!”
This time, even Pei Qingshen couldn’t hold back his laughter. He looked at Officer w.a.n.g and raised his wine gla.s.s. “Alright, alright. If Grandpa w.a.n.g wants you to take it, then take it.”
Pei Xingxing smiled slightly and took the money. He zipped up his bag and jumped off the chair as if he was afraid that his great-grandfather would go back on his word. He ran to the small sofa and played with his phone.
He swiped his finger across the screen.
“Ms. Su Ji posted a photo!”
He swayed his legs and shouted in a childish voice.
“Is that so?” Pei Qingshen put down his wine gla.s.s with a smile and took his pnone.
He had already added Su Ji and Cao Zhuzhu on WeChat.
He had to keep track of his future granddaughter-in-law’s activities.
Officer w.a.n.g put on his gla.s.ses and moved his chair closer to him. “Let me take a look too. Where did Su Ji go today? I saw that the news yesterday was all about our Su Ji.”
“Our Su Ji?” Pei Qingshen was a germaphobe and felt that he was too close.
“Aiya, I’ll give it to you after I’m done.”
As he spoke, he scrolled to Su Ji’s profile and clicked on the photo. A fawning smile gradually appeared on his face.
He looked at the photo and bragged to Officer w.a.n.g, “look at how photogenic she is.”
However, he did not give him the phone.
Officer w.a.n.g could not see what she posted.
This made him so anxious that he placed his hand on the back of Pei Qingshen’s chair and leaned over.
He almost hugged him.
Pei Qingshen turned around and looked at him.
A second later, he shivered and threw the phone on the table. He stood up. “She just took a photo with two elders, why are you so anxious?! ”
“I’m not sick, why are you so scared?” Officer w.a.n.g rolled his eyes. He really couldn’t stand him. When they were in the army together, Old Pei took eight showers a day!
He smelled the best in the entire camp!
The smell of high-grade shower gel could be smelled from thousands of miles away!
Officer w.a.n.g ignored him and pushed his gla.s.ses up to look at his phone.
A second later, he revealed the same doting smile.
“Of course she’s photogenic…”
As he spoke, he glanced at the person standing next to Su Ji in the photo.
Then, his eyes widened!
The photo was edited so much that she didn’t recognize him at first.
However, when he saw the middle-aged man, his expression suddenly froze!
A few seconds later, he grabbed the phone and jumped up from the chair.
Pei Qingshen was so frightened that he almost spilled a mouthful of wine. “Old
w.a.n.g, why do you always have such a big reaction?”
However, Officer w.a.n.g did not explain. He pointed at the man in the photo excitedly. “This is Su Ji’s friend??”
“I think so. Why?” Pei Qingshen noticed that there was something wrong. “Could it be…
Officer w.a.n.g heaved a sigh of relief.. “This is the man I’ve been looking for,
Officer Yuan “
