Chapter 218 If We Had Been Together Already ⑦
After meeting in the billiard room, Shen Zhiyi didn't see Pei Yu in school for a few days. Qin Xiaoran told her that he was taken abroad by Pei's father again.

Shen Zhiyi increasingly felt that these people did not live in the same world as him. Although they were still students, many of them had begun to get involved in family businesses to a greater or lesser extent, and Pei Yu was the most conspicuous one among them.

She studied quietly, gradually keeping up with the pace, and her relationship with Qin Xiaoran became better and better. The two were almost inseparable.

Walking on the campus path, Qin Xiaoran chatted with her about gossip. Shen Zhiyi held a stack of notes in her arms, listening while pondering an unsolved problem in her mind.

Qin Xiaoran suddenly grabbed her and said, "Hey, it's Qin Fang."

Where Qin Fang is... Shen Zhiyi stopped and looked forward.

Several teenagers walked out of the teaching building, wearing neat standard school uniforms. Qin Fang said something and tried to put his arm on Pei Yu's shoulder, but was glanced at by his cold eyes and withdrew his arm awkwardly.

"Your habit of not wanting others to touch you is getting worse and worse." Qin Fang muttered in dissatisfaction.

Pei Yu was too lazy to pay attention to him. He took a few steps out of the shadow. The falling sunlight blurred his outline. The young man squinted slightly, looking a little relaxed and casual, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Until Qin Fang suddenly talked about another thing, "...I heard that you are going to get engaged to Huo Anan?"

Family marriages were very common among them, and Pei Yu's brothers all married the daughters of family partners.

Pei Yu glanced at him with a slightly cold expression.

"Qin Fang!" Qin Xiaoran suddenly trotted over.

"Call me brother." After being interrupted by her, Qin Fang shifted his attention and stopped talking about the engagement. "Have you heard the results of your midterm exam?"

"Why are you bringing this up?" Qin Xiaoran immediately changed the subject. "Zhiyi did really well in the exam! She..."

"Eh?" Qin Xiaoran turned his head and looked at the place where he had just stood, "Where is she?"

Pei Yu's gaze paused there and he frowned slightly.

Shen Zhiyi went back to the classroom without waiting for Qin Xiaoran. She sorted out the papers she had finished recently and stared at the difficult problem she had not solved.

got engaged……

To her, this was really a very distant thing. It turned out that rich people like them got engaged so early.

She was thinking about all sorts of random things. Because she had made an appointment to go to Qin Xiaoran's house to do homework with her, she got in the Qin family's car after school that day.

"We have to wait for Qin Fang," Qin Xiaoran sat in the car and brought some snacks to Shen Zhiyi, "He will be out soon."

Shen Zhiyi was sitting near the window and inadvertently glanced at the school gate. Qin Fang's figure appeared in her sight, and next to him was Pei Yu. The boy lowered his head to look at his mobile phone. The lines of his profile were particularly beautiful, and he had a kind of cold and deserted temperament.

Relying on the fact that he was in the car, Shen Zhiyi was able to look at him boldly. The boy was well-appeared in every way. Even when he was just standing, he looked tall and handsome, with eye-catching long legs.

Qin Fang was talking to him when he suddenly looked back. Then a girl with long curly hair ran over, greeted him with a smile, said something to Pei Yu, and walked towards the Pei family's car with Pei Yu.

Shen Zhiyi withdrew his gaze and stopped looking.

She turned up the volume of her headphones and her phone vibrated. It was a message from Pei Yu, asking her where she was.

Not knowing why he asked this, Shen Zhiyi didn't think too much about it and told him that she had already returned home.

But in fact, she agreed to stay at Qin's house today.

On the other side, when Pei Yu saw the message, his brows slightly frowned and his mood turned cold.

He hasn't seen Shen Zhiyi for several days.

"Pei Yu," the girl next to him called his name in a low voice, "Uncle Pei invited me to your house for dinner. Are you unhappy?" The engagement was indeed not groundless. Pei's father had this plan, but Pei Yu knew very well that his brothers and sisters would not agree. He was already highly valued by Pei's father, and if he found a powerful Yue family, he would be more competitive than them.

So this marriage will not happen, and I'm afraid someone will take action tonight.

Pei Yu didn't answer. The girl looked at him for a while and stopped talking.

Everyone knows that the young master of the Pei family has a bad temper and doesn't like to talk to people. When he was young, he was not valued and no one wanted to please him. Now that he has grown up, it has become a very difficult thing to please him, even girls, as he does not show sympathy to women.

Qin family.

Shen Zhiyi helped Qin Xiaoran finish his homework and played with him for a while. She had a regular schedule and would feel sleepy at a certain time. She couldn't stay up late with Qin Xiaoran, so she went to bed after washing up.

Tomorrow is the weekend. Qin Xiaoran played to his heart's content until midnight. He ran into Qin Fang coming back from outside and it was obvious that he was drunk.

"Tsk, you've become an alcoholic at such a young age," Qin Xiaoran taunted his brother with his arms crossed, "If you keep drinking like this, your face will fall apart before you're twenty."

Qin Fang's eyelids twitched. "I only drank a little! Song Zhi drank too, why don't you say anything about him?"

Fu Songzhi was standing next to him. He had his coat on his elbow and looked quite sober. "He didn't drink much. He said he wanted to come back to drink."

"You stole Dad's wine again," Qin Xiaoran said, but he quickly took out a few bottles of good wine and said, "Will you play games with me for a while?"

"Okay," Qin Fang picked up a game controller, "I'll make you lose so badly that you'll call me brother for mercy."

The three of them played downstairs for a while, and just when Qin Fang was feeling sleepy, he received a text message.

"Brother Pei is coming."

He stood up quickly, "Let the alcohol out. He's been particularly annoying drinking lately."

Pei Yu had been taken to several drinking parties by his father, and he was annoyed by the sight of alcohol recently.

"It's so late," Qin Xiaoran was eating snacks, "It's really rare."

"Maybe he's in a bad mood," Qin Fang guessed randomly, "Aren't he and Huo Anan getting engaged? He doesn't like girls like Huo Anan."

"Then what kind does he like?" Qin Xiaoran became interested.

"Huo Anan is too reserved. If Pei Ge'er likes someone, he'd prefer the outgoing type, like me." Qin Fang said shamelessly.

"..." Qin Xiaoran rolled his eyes, "I would be crazy to ask you this."

Not reliable at all.

Several people were making a lot of noise in the living room, playing games and singing. Even though the soundproofing was good, Shen Zhiyi was still woken up by the noise.

She checked the time. It was two o'clock in the morning.

After sitting on the bed for a while, Shen Zhiyi slowly got out of bed and planned to go downstairs to see what Qin Xiaoran was playing. She seemed to hear Qin Fang's voice.

As the door opened, the sound of Qin Fang's singing became very clear, covering up the sound of Shen Zhiyi's footsteps coming down the stairs. She was still sleepy and walked down the stairs in a daze.

The people who were playing all had their backs to her, except Pei Yu.

The young man was wearing a snow-white shirt and black trousers, with a casual and relaxed posture. He raised his eyes slightly and met her gaze.

Shen Zhiyi stayed where he was.

Why is he here?
