Chapter 315: Childish
Pei Wei quickly stepped forward to pull him back: "I was just joking with you, why are you taking it so seriously?"
"Pei Wei, you know I never joke about anything." Mu Chaohuan’s eyes were crystal clear.
Even after ten years, time had changed his appearance, but his nature and character remained impeccable.
"Brother, it’s my fault! I’ll punish myself with three drinks!" Pei Wei pulled him over to sit down.
After drinking three cups, seeing Mu Chaohuan still didn’t pick up his glass, he called two girls who were accompanying them to leave.
When only the two of them were left in the room, Pei Wei immediately complained to him: "I’m sorry for not picking you up today, brother, I was wrongly accused at the airport."
"No need to apologize, I left with Third Brother and Little Sister." Mu Chaohuan was straightforward as usual.
In fact, Pei Wei had already found out that the three siblings left together.
He even suspected for a while that being caught at the airport must have been a trick by Mu Shaochen and Mu Anhan.
However, he had no evidence to accuse those two.
"Perhaps I got wrongfully accused because your Third Brother falsely reported me!" Pei Wei tentatively said.
Mu Chaohuan looked at him calmly: "Why would my Third Brother do such a thing?"
"Because he’s Gu Xiaozhan’s trusted lieutenant, and Gu Xiaozhan ordered him to do it! Of course, he probably didn’t want to!" Pei Wei quickly explained.
Mu Chaohuan put down his glass: "Why would Gu Xiaozhan want to do that?"
"He imprisoned your little sister, knowing that as soon as you returned to the Imperial City, he’d give you a scare." Pei Wei told him.
Faced with Pei Wei’s flawed explanation, Mu Chaohuan wasn’t interested in listening, "How exactly would you assist me? What do you need me to do?"
"Listen to you..." Pei Wei still tried to get closer to him, "We’re classmates, good brothers, talking like this is too distant, as for dealing with Gu Xiaozhan, I naturally have ways. Your little sister is like my little sister, I won’t let her get wronged."
Mu Chaohuan disliked his evasive talk, he always disliked such grandiose words.
"How about we just drink today?" Pei Wei poured him another drink.
Mu Chaohuan refused: "Find me when you’ve figured out how to deal with Gu Xiaozhan! I’m leaving now!"
Pei Wei still wanted to keep him, but he insisted on leaving.
Pei Wei needed to utilize his professional knowledge anyway, so couldn’t force him to stay.
He watched as the oblivious Mu Chaohuan walked away, then called in a hostess again, having a great time with them on both sides!
...
Tianqin Residence.
Mu Anhan finished her bath and was lying in bed playing games.
She received a message from Mu Shaochen: [Big Brother found out about our setup for Pei Wei at the airport.]
Mu Anhan: [It must be Pei Wei who told Big Brother, is he angry?]
Mu Shaochen: [Big Brother asked why, I told him about Pei Wei blowing up Sanwan Bridge with a bomb and also told him Pei Wei absolutely can’t be a friend.]
Mu Anhan: [Big Brother is a person of clear rights and wrongs, hopefully he listens!]
She stared at her phone in a daze when Gu Xiaozhan came over after his bath: "What’s wrong?"
Mu Anhan didn’t hide it from him and told him what happened at the airport.
In fact, Gu Xiaozhan had already known, after all, Lie Huo was his man.
Their every move was firmly under Gu Xiaozhan’s control.
"That action was really quite childish!" Gu Xiaozhan glanced at her with sharp eyes.
Mu Anhan glared at him, knowing he would look down on it.
