Chapter 101 He has never been a gentleman.

After Meng Qiming asked, the whole room fell silent. Duan Jiaze didn't understand, while Shen Zhiyi was stunned by the question and didn't react for a while, "I didn't raise you..."

Of course, she couldn't have raised him.

Meng Qiming hesitated, "Excuse me for being so abrupt, but his father is——"

Four years ago, Shen Zhiyi had not yet made her relationship with Huo Heng public, so Meng Qiming ruled out this possibility first. After thinking about it, he felt that the other person was more likely. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he always felt that this child had some similarities with that person.

Shen Zhiyi was even more confused, "I don't know."

Meng Qiming immediately misunderstood and apologized, "Sorry, I——"

He was just imagining some tragic past for Shen Zhiyi when the door was suddenly pushed open again. Before the adults turned their attention away, the fat boy Duan Jiaze had already run over and hugged him happily, "Uncle!"

It was definitely not an exaggeration to say that Duan Jiaze was fat. His collision almost knocked Pei Yu back. He raised his leg in disgust, pushed the kid back, and put him aside by the shoulder straps of his dungarees.

He was so careless that his clothes were wrinkled.

Duan Jiaze didn't feel the disgust from his uncle at all, and excitedly raised his two fat arms, "Uncle, uncle, uncle——"

Amazing lung capacity.

Pei Yu glanced at him and said, "Duan Jiaze, shut up."

The child immediately shut his mouth.

Meng Qiming finally figured out the situation. The good news was that the child was not Shen Zhiyi's, but the bad news was that the child seemed to be related to Pei Yu. Since he was a relative of Pei Yu's family, why was he given to Shen Zhiyi to raise? Did their relationship improve?

Meng Qiming stood up without showing his inner thoughts on his face, smiling flawlessly, "Mr. Pei, long time no see."

With Shen Zhiyi's intention, Pei Yu had to put in some superficial effort. He nodded indifferently with a cold attitude.

Neither of them seemed to notice anything about the scene, but Shen Zhiyi felt awkward. She waved for Duan Jiaze to come over and put the schoolbag on his back. "Your uncle is here, go home with him."

Originally, I was just taking care of the child temporarily for the parents. Now that Pei Yu has come to pick him up, I have to return the child.

"He won't leave."

Pei Yu took the schoolbag. It was quite heavy, full of snacks. It showed how much she spoiled this kid. "I have to stay at your place for a few more days."

"Ah?" Shen Zhiyi didn't understand what he meant, "Isn't he going to live in Hua Ting?"

The security system of Huating is more effective than that of any other community, and there is a housekeeper to take care of it, so it is more appropriate for Duan Jiaze to stay there.

"He can't live in Hua Ting," Pei Yu said seriously, "their horoscopes are not compatible, and that place is unlucky for him."

Shen Zhiyi: "..."

How should I put it? This reason is a little reasonable despite its absurdity.

She lowered her eyes, unable to tell whether she believed it or not, "It's up to you. Hua Ting is not the only place to live."

This was the first time that Pei Yu felt that having many properties under his name was not a good thing.

He frowned slightly and spoke a long paragraph in French to Duan Jiaze.

As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Jiaze immediately hugged Shen Zhiyi tightly, looking up with tears in his eyes, "I won't leave. I want to follow my uncle - and Zhizhi!"

Shen Zhiyi looked at Pei Yu suspiciously, "What did you say to him?"

"Tell him that he has to live with me for the next few days," Pei Yu said calmly, "He doesn't want to."

Shen Zhiyi didn't quite believe it. The French he just spoke didn't seem to be just about this, but she couldn't find any evidence.

No matter what Pei Yu said, Duan Jiaze was very determined. He just held Shen Zhiyi tightly, sobbed pitifully, and used his not-so-standard Chinese to act like a spoiled child to Shen Zhiyi. The chubby child looked like a wrinkled dough when crying, which was particularly pitiful. Shen Zhiyi had no other choice but to ask Pei Yu for help several times, asking him to say something to coax the child away, but every time he finished speaking, Duan Jiaze cried even harder.

Pei Yu seemed helpless, "He didn't listen to me."

In the end, Shen Zhiyi compromised and agreed to let Duan Jiaze stay with her for two more days.

After dealing with this, he finally found the time to ask Meng Qiming why he came to see him.

"Nothing, I just heard that you were injured and have been worried about you. I happened to be free today, so I came to see you."

Meng Qiming was gentle and sensible. Even though he had made it clear that he wanted to pursue Shen Zhiyi, he always gave her room to maneuver, did not get into annoying entanglements, and spoke to the point.

It was also because of this that Shen Zhiyi couldn't be cold to him and had to treat him politely as a friend.

"I'm fine now, please don't bother me with this trip."

They had already been delayed for a while and she still had to film, so she couldn't say much and gave the lounge to the two uninvited guests.

"It will take me a while to finish my work, Mr. Meng, you——"

It's not good to ask people to wait here all the time.

Understanding her concerns, Meng Qiming said sympathetically, "I'll be leaving soon. I still have some things to deal with. You don't have to worry about me. We can meet again when we have the chance."

Shen Zhiyi nodded, "Okay."

While the two were talking, Duan Jiaze, who was tired of crying, snuggled up to Pei Yu and looked up for praise.

"Uncle, did I behave well just now?"

Pei Yu responded perfunctorily, "Yeah."

The child smiled happily and treated himself to his fifth bag of potato chips today. While chewing, he listened to Shen Zhiyi talking to the bad uncle who said he was fat.

Unable to understand what they were saying, Duan Jiaze wanted his uncle to translate for him.

"Uncle, what is he talking about?"

Pei Yu rubbed his head, his eyes dark, and said coldly, "He wants to kidnap your aunt."

Duan Jiaze's eyes widened. Wow, he is indeed a bad guy!

After a few simple words, Shen Zhiyi left the lounge. Meng Qiming didn't want to stay any longer, so he asked politely, "Don't you want to leave with us, Mr. Pei?"

Pei Yu sat still, without raising his head, "I need to look after the child."

He is the child's uncle, so it seems reasonable for him to do so. However, Meng Qiming is not a fool, so he naturally knows that Pei Yu's purpose is the same as his own.

I've always heard that this man is pure-hearted, has high standards, and has never had a woman around him. I never thought that he would have such a scheming day.

Because they are both competitors, Meng Qiming cannot take it easy and cannot just watch the fun.

He stood up, nodded and smiled, as if joking unintentionally, but with a hint of meaning, "Boss Pei, using the child as an excuse is a bit too dirty."

He could see that Shen Zhiyi was actually somewhat avoiding Mr. Pei, and Pei Yu was using this child to get a natural opportunity to get close to Shen Zhiyi.

Pei Yu raised his eyelids, his expression indifferent, without any annoyance. He curled his lips nonchalantly and admitted frankly, "So what?"

He has never been a gentleman and will do anything to achieve his goals, let alone the fact that the other party is Shen Zhiyi. Even if he uses all his tricks, he wants to be the one who gets the beauty in the end.
