Chapter 265: Deep Love Talk at Lanyue Tower
Coming back here again, Jiang Shiyuan felt as if he was in another world.
She still felt scared when she thought about that dangerous moment, so her face didn't look very good. Pei Zisu noticed her discomfort, held her hand tightly, and then said with some concern.
"If you feel uncomfortable, why don't you go around? I'm going to see my cousin from the Su family."
"It's okay. I'll be living in Xijing City in the future, so this place is inevitable. It'll be fine if I come here a few times."
Pei Zisu nodded. In the eyes of outsiders, the current Lanyue Tower had changed countless owners, but only he knew that he was still the person behind the scenes, so it was even safer here than in Ning'an Garden.
That's why he invited people to Lanyue Tower.
Going up to the private room on the third floor, everything there was different. Jiang Shiyuan looked around and somehow, he seemed to feel inexplicably at ease.
"After the last incident, the boss who took over renovated this place, so there are secret passages in the private rooms that can be used to leave smoothly, so it is much safer than before. Moreover, every one of the people in this building is a fighter. They can be smiling at you one second, and injure those criminals the next second. So it is much safer. Don't worry, things like that won't happen again."
After hearing this, Jiang Shiyuan finally understood.
"It's amazing that the boss has such an ingenious idea, but the wool comes from the sheep, so the price will probably be much higher than before."
"It's more than three times, so we've carefully selected a group of customers. Now the customers who come here are of high status, so the business is more profitable than before."
"How does my husband know so much?"
Pei Zisu smiled and raised his eyebrows slightly, and Jiang Shiyuan reacted immediately.
Sure enough, he gave up all the titles and things of the Pei family, but what he had gained through his own abilities over the years was still firmly in his hands. In this way, supporting his family was not a problem.
"I was worried that I would have to rely on pawning to make a living in the future. Now it seems that my husband is still strong enough to rely on!"
"Don't worry, ma'am. You and the children will never starve!"
The couple joked with each other and then went in. Su Sheng had been sitting inside for a while with tea and snacks in front of him, and he didn't move much.
"Let my cousin wait."
"No way, I just arrived too, the tea and snacks have just been served, I haven't had time to eat yet."
As he said that, he took one of the pieces and started eating. His expression didn't change much afterwards, but he was talking.
"It's a bit too sweet, let's try something else next time."
"How about I ask them to order something else?"
"No need, I'm not here to taste your food, just say whatever you want to say."
He said this calmly, as if nothing special had happened, but only Pei Zisu understood that not many people knew that he was the owner of Lanyue Tower. The fact that his cousin could speak out about it could only mean that he either had great intelligence or was an accurate guesser of people's minds.
But no matter which one it is, it is a good thing for Pei Zisu. How can the person he wants to entrust his mother to be a good-for-nothing? So he smiled and said when he thought of this.
"Today, I am in a hurry, so I won't bother you, uncle. I will ask you to come over another day and give me some advice to see if there is anything I can improve."
"Easy to say, easy to say."
The two exchanged a few words, one admitted the incident, and the other acted as if it was insignificant.
Jiang Shiyuan saw that there was some calm before the storm, so he poured tea for the two of them and sat down. Then he heard his cousin from the Su family ask directly.
"Why did you invite me here today?"
"My cousin is a man of few words, so I won't hide anything. I have asked Aunt Wu about some situations in private, so I invited you here now. First, I want to express my gratitude. If you hadn't supported my mother silently for so many years, my three brothers and sisters wouldn't have achieved the reputation we have today. Second, I want to ask you sincerely, are your feelings for my mother as firm as a rock?"
Pei Zisu's words made Su Sheng a little silent.
He didn't care whether he was thanked or not. If he really wanted this, he wouldn't have kept so much to himself. Except for the last sentence, what does it matter if it's as solid as a rock? What does it matter if it's not as solid as a rock?
When the two looked at each other, one had complicated emotions and the other was frank.
After a long while, Su Sheng let out a long sigh and said.
"If I wasn't as solid as a rock, how could I have chased you from Xuanzhou to Hanzhou, and then from Hanzhou to Xijing City? But I have one thing that I don't understand. Your mother is unwilling to divorce and find a good partner. In the final analysis, it is for the sake of your three brothers and sisters' reputation. After all, Marshal Pei is still alive. If you take over the Pei family, your mother will divorce and remarry, which will make it difficult for you. Aren't you worried?"
Hearing this, Pei Zisu laughed instead of getting angry.
"Uncle, you worry too much. From the moment I decided to return to Xijing City, I gave up everything of the Pei family. Mother's misfortune over the years is all because of the Pei family. Since there are three of us, how could I let her be trapped in such a predicament for the rest of her life? Father is not a good man. It is not enough to be trapped in his life. Do I have to be enshrined in the ancestral temple with him for generations to come and suffer such grievances?"
His words made Su Sheng's eyes slightly red.
After traveling all over the country for so many years, Su Sheng has always been soft on the outside but hard on the inside. He can be gentle and kind, but he can also be ruthless and ruthless.
However, when facing his cousin Wu An, he could never bear to break up with her, nor could he bear to care about her, so he found himself in this predicament that lasted for more than 20 years.
He never thought of fighting for it because he didn't want to embarrass her.
But now, the child she cared about most had expressed his opinion. If she still hesitated, she would miss this opportunity and there would never be another one!
His eyes were freed from the complexity and soon became firm and unwavering, and he made a solemn promise to Pei Zisu.
"As long as my cousin is willing, I am willing to accompany her in all weathers, for the rest of my life and in the next life as well."
The promise of two lifetimes was made so easily. For people like Pei Zisu and Jiang Shiyuan who have actually lived two lifetimes, they knew how sincere and heartfelt the oath was, so they were happy to see it come true.
"Don't worry, cousin. I will change the attitude of my mother. I just hope that after everything is over, you can take her out for more walks. The sky is high and the sea is vast. There are neighbors and friends all around. There is a lot of freedom that cannot be trapped in this world. I hope you can see what we can't do for the time being."
"Don't worry about this. As long as my cousin is willing, I will follow you to the ends of the earth!"
Pei Zisu was disappointed by Su Sheng's affirmative answer. His father only had Aunt An and her children in his eyes and heart, and he had been at odds with his mother for many years. If his whole life was wasted on such a person, then as a son, he would not be able to bear it!
Therefore, there is the talk about Lanyue Tower today.
