Chapter 391



391 Chapter 391:

Jiang se smiled and bade Feng Nan farewell. The few of them revealed their identities as invited guests and entered the banquet hall. Feng Nan stood outside and could still feel everyone’s gaze on her.

The people who had come tonight were all celebrities from all walks of life. They were well-bred and cultivated. No one looked at her with ridicule, nor did anyone whisper about the cold treatment she had received in front of PEI Yi.

However, Feng Nan felt more vexed than being pointed at by others. Everyone entered the inner hall one after another, but she found it difficult to even straighten her back.

There were not many people in the venue at the moment. Xia Chaoqun checked the time and graciously gave Jiang se and PEI Yi some alone time.

Jiang se was wearing high heels. Since the time for the social event had yet to come, she simply found a sofa in the corner and sat down.

A Steinway piano was placed in the middle of the venue.

PEI Yi touched her hand and asked, ”

“Are you cold?”

She was wearing a sleeveless dress today. The length of the dress reached her knees, revealing a pair of beautiful curved calves. Jiang se shook her head and leaned her head against his arm as she spoke to him.

After chatting for a while, more and more people arrived. PEI Yi held Jiang SE’s hand and played with it in his palm.

Whether it was before or after her rebirth, her pair of hands had been well taken care of. They were thin but not firewood, and her fingers were slender and cute. They were white, like tender bamboo shoots that had been peeled layer by layer. They were soft as if they had no bones, and he could knead them as he pleased in his palms, bringing with them a faint fragrance.

When he saw Jiang SE’s hand, he could not help but laugh.

“Sese, do you still remember what I liked to play with you when we were young?”

She raised her eyebrows and looked up at him.

“Of course I remember.”

He was very active and had been very naughty since he was young. He was also the eldest grandson of the PEI family and the Apple of old master PEI and old lady PEI’s eyes. The family doted on him a lot.

Back then, when Feng Nan followed Feng Zhongliang to visit the PEI family for the first time, he had broken one of his father’s favorite antiques and caused a lot of trouble. After that, PEI jinhuai was furious. The elders held him down, but they could not hit him. He was punished to stand against the corner of the wall in a military posture for two hours. Other than drinking water and talking, he was not allowed to sit or walk around. He had to raise his head and stand straight.

Such a punishment was almost fatal to PEI Yi when he was young. He had a long face and looked rather pitiful.

No one in the family dared to speak to PEI jinhuai after he had greeted them.

He must have cried by then, as his face was covered in tears. Old master PEI felt sorry for him, but he also found it funny. When Feng Zhongliang asked about PEI Yi, he told him about the trouble PEI Yi had caused. The adults laughed loudly, while the child looked angry.

At that time, he was not as handsome as he was now. He had baby fat on his cheeks, which was similar to his mother’s. His eyes were like obsidian that had been washed, and they were shockingly bright.

She looked at him being laughed at and felt a little sympathetic.

When Feng Nan arrived, he had already been standing for more than half an hour. No matter how much he cried or made a fuss, it was useless. Once he was tired and leaned against the wall, he would be scolded by PEI jinhuai.

At that time, she was also a child, younger than him by less than five years. She did not have much experience in coaxing children. He had been pampered and spoiled since young, so he had seen all kinds of good things. When she used things to tease him, he did not care.

In the end, she chose to play with him, playing the simplest hand game.

This way, he wouldn’t disobey PEI jinhuai’s order to not move, but he wouldn’t stand in the corner like a fool either.

He wasn’t afraid of falling and hitting, but he was afraid of being ignored like this.

The two of them played rock, paper, and scissors, and he won every time. Gradually, his anger turned into joy.

It was also from then on that he liked Feng Nan the most. He liked her very much and always wanted to keep her at home and not let her return to the Feng family.

She was the only one who was willing to play such a simple game with him in a corner for nearly two hours. She was neither impatient nor grumbling, and she kept him happy.

When Feng Zhongliang wanted to bring her back, he cried and rolled on the ground, pointing at Feng Zhongliang and calling him a ‘bad guy’. This almost made old master PEI angry and he asked his men to carry him back into the house.

“Every time I play with you, I always win.” PEI Yi was still a little smug when he mentioned the past. you only like to make cloth every time. There had never been an exception.

He lowered his head, his voice was a little low, and his tone was intimate.

Jiang se raised her head to look at him and their eyes met. The deep love in his eyes could drown anyone. His thick and long eyelashes cast a deep shadow on his eyes.

When she saw his smile, she couldn’t help but reach out to touch his chin. He lowered his head and rubbed his chin against her palm like a spoiled child, then lowered his head to kiss her gently.

“That’s because you only like to use scissors every time.”

From this, one could tell PEI Yi’s personality. He was not the passive type and liked to take the initiative. He always liked to play rock-paper-scissors the most. After playing it a few times, Jiang se could almost figure out his personality. She could make this simple boy happy just by following his temper.

He did not expect to hear something like that. He was stunned for a moment, and his gaze gradually softened. Just as he was about to speak, Jiang se noticed someone walking toward them from the corner of her eye. Before she could turn to look, the person had already stopped in front of them. Then, she heard a female voice call out, ”

“Brother Yi.”

The smile on PEI Yi’s face faded a little. Jiang se looked up and saw PEI Rui, who was wearing a light yellow dress, standing in front of them with a girl.

Before Jiang SE’s rebirth, she was rather familiar with the PEI family. Her relationship with PEI Rui was not too good, but it was not bad either.

However, after her rebirth, the PEI family was not a place where she could move around as she pleased. She had only met PEI Rui once during the new year when PEI Yi brought her back to the PEI family. The two of them were not familiar with each other.

She did not seem surprised to see Jiang se. She greeted her with a smile, ”

“Miss Jiang,”

Her tone was polite and distant. Compared to the PEI Rui that Jiang se remembered a few years ago, she was undoubtedly much quieter and taller now.

She was wearing a light yellow dress, which showed off her slim figure. The color made her skin look very fair. PEI Rui’s Black hair was tied into a ponytail, and she had light makeup on. She had the playfulness of a young girl, but also the elegance.

The girl standing next to PEI Rui looked almost the same as her. She also had a ponytail, her skin was a healthy honey color, and she was nearly 1.7 meters tall. At such an event, she did not wear a dress but a white t-shirt with a sports skirt and pants, looking extra energetic.

At this moment, she was frowning and glaring at PEI Yi with her arms crossed in front of her chest, looking a little displeased.
