let me smell the pheromones

Chapter 114

Lin Chengxuan did what he said.

He asked Lin Pei to leave for a few days because he was unwell, and he didn't know what Lin Chengxuan said to the director. Lin Pei didn't know the outside situation at all.

Lin Chengxuan even confiscated his mobile phone.

Chris has been unable to contact him, and he only said that he was sick and resting when he came to find someone. He was worried about what happened to Lin Pei. One day, when his aunt was out shopping for groceries, he squatted downstairs at Lin Pei's house and beat the window with stones as an excuse. signal.

However, as soon as the connection between the two was established, Chris' cell phone rang before they had chatted for 2 minutes——

It was his dad calling.

It was only later that Lin Pei found out that there was surveillance outside their house. His father's assistant had been watching the situation at home these days, and told Lin Chengxuan when he saw Chris contacting him through the camera.

Lin Chengxuan didn't say anything, just called the other party to catch up on the old days, and soon, Chris never appeared under his window again.

Even Song Xun and Lin Pei failed to contact him.

On the third day of recuperating at home, when Lin Chengxuan came home from get off work, his aunt had just finished cooking and called Lin Pei to eat.

At the dinner table, the aunt accidentally mentioned that when she got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, she saw a light in Lin Pei's room.

"Since Xiao Pei is resting at home, he doesn't need to read any more. Anyway, if he has time now, he can go to the balcony to watch it during the daytime. The light is the best."

Auntie didn't know that Lin Pei was locked up by her father, and she was concerned about it, "If you can't sleep, I'll take that Chinese medicine bag tonight, and you can soak your feet, so that you can sleep better and relieve your fatigue."

If you can't even go to school, why are you tired?

Lin Pei was full of slander, and hummed vaguely.

Lin Chengxuan was silent for a while, seeing that he ate very little food, and said, "Don't be picky about your food, you can eat whatever you want. Are you like this at school?"

"..." Lin Pei flipped over the grains of millet with the tip of his chopsticks, glanced at the emerald green vegetables on the table, and replied in a low voice, "I haven't exercised much these days, I'm not hungry, and I can't eat. The school cafeteria sometimes Cooking is greasy, and I often eat it casually in small restaurants outside."

"You should pay more attention to hygiene when eating outside." Lin Chengxuan said, "Your stomach is not good, so eat less greasy meat."

Lin Pei didn't answer, but the aunt chimed in and said, "I don't know, sir. Children of this age are growing up. Isn't there a saying that a half-sized child eats a poor old man? Sir, he is also 1.8 meters tall, maybe? Little Pei Nu can grow so tall even if he works hard."

Then he asked: "Has Xiao Pei grown up now?"

"Yeah." Lin Pei nodded slightly, "177."

He has grown two centimeters in a year, and it is estimated that he will be 1.8 meters tall when he graduates. This height is also very outstanding in Omega.

The auntie started rambling again, saying that Lin Pei has good genes, looks like his mother, and his height is like his father, and she has taken up all the advantages of both of them.

Lin Chengxuan listened silently for a while, and said, "Go and get back the milk tea from last time. After it's warmed up, let him take a bath and go to sleep."

When he was at home, these fashionable gadgets were rarely seen at home. Once Lin Pei was greedy for curry rice, but forgot to turn on the range hood after cooking. Lin Chengxuan came back from get off work and hated it for a long time. Not used to the taste of that curry.

At this moment, I asked my aunt to make milk tea because she thought she was too nagging, so I found a reason to dismiss her.

Auntie responded.

After she left, Lin Chengxuan said: "Go to school tomorrow, don't cause trouble at school, study hard."

Lin Pei pawed at the rice in the bowl with chopsticks, and asked in a low voice, "Then what happened last time..."

Lin Chengxuan didn't answer, and after a while, he suddenly mentioned another matter, "Today your homeroom teacher called me and talked about something."

Lin Pei raised his head and looked at him.

"He told me about your recent study status, and we happened to talk about recommending you." Lin Chengxuan said: "He said that parents and students should be consulted for their opinions, and that if they are willing now, they should make preparations as soon as possible."

"I do not need."

Apart from the national level competitions, their school can also participate in the recommendation as a 'foreign language special student', but these are of no significance to Lin Pei, "The college entrance examination is not that difficult for me... Anyway, I am bored at home , might as well stay in school for a while longer."

After finishing speaking, he put down the bowl and chopsticks, turned around and went upstairs.

Lin Chengxuan looked at the stairs for a while, then turned over the screen of the phone pressed on the table, and Sheng Mingyu sent him a message.

Make an appointment to meet him at the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.

He replied yes, then swipe left to delete, deleting all contacts with this number.

·

When Lin Pei returned to his room, a third-rate youth school drama on TV that hadn't had time to turn off was reaching its finale.

The hero and heroine broke up after graduation and met again in a foreign country many years later. They looked at each other affectionately. fade out.

Lin Pei touched his stomach, knelt on the ground and groped in the box under the bed for a long time, only found a small bag of seaweed——

This thing melts in the mouth, as if you didn't eat it.

The hamster food reserve was a serious failure.

Lin Pei couldn't help sighing.

His father has been watching him closely these past few days, and he gets off work at [-]:[-] pm every day, because his taste is very light, and it is not good for the aunt to cook a small stove for Lin Pei alone, so she can only let the children eat grass and tofu together, and after a few days, They've all lost weight.

It is also not easy for him to ask his aunt and the driver to buy snacks for him, because he is afraid that the news will reach Lin Chengxuan's ears and add a few days of confinement to him.

Bear with it, you can go back to school tomorrow.

Lin Chengxuan said he wanted the head teacher to keep an eye on him, but it's impossible for the teacher to sit in the class 24 hours a day.

As long as he can go back, it means that the sea is wide and the sky is high and the birds are flying. He can roll around as he wants, and his father can still manage it in the school?

But speaking of it, if it weren't for Zhang Wenhui, he wouldn't have resorted to such a bitter trick.Depending on Lin Chengxuan's personality, Zhang Wenhui might still be able to live in peace at school, but after returning home, he would never have a quiet time.

It's just that he has made himself tired. He hasn't been able to eat well or sleep well these past few days. He has been deprived of all recreational activities, and he's bored to death.

Lin Pei sighed, and thought of the discussion between him and Song Xun in the car that day. Both of them had an intuition that Zhang Wenhui was not the gossip spreader. He could say it was an illusion alone, but if two people thought so, it was somewhat Credibility too.

If it wasn't Zhang Wenhui, who could it be?

And Song Xun...

I don't know how he is.

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from outside the window.

Lin Pei's thoughts were interrupted, and he frowned slightly.

The security management in the villa area where they live is very strict, and they have to scan their faces when entering and leaving, and even deliver food with registered familiar faces.For the sake of aesthetics, the windows were not equipped with anti-theft bars. An iron locked gate was installed at the door of the house, and there was an electric grid hidden under the ivy on the courtyard wall.

There won't be thieves who don't want to steal their house, right?

Lin Pei made a decisive decision, and immediately pulled out a [-]cm long fruit knife from the drawer, and carefully hid to the side, so as not to let his figure appear on the window.

He heard a soft rustling sound from the long ladder, like the sound of plastic bags rubbing against each other, and a few small gasps that could hardly be heard unless he listened carefully.

The fuzzy shadow was illuminated by the light, and the man raised his arm and slowly waved towards the window——

Lin Pei held his breath and gripped the handle of the knife tightly.

The next second, a familiar low voice came from outside the window.

"Lin Pei."

That was Song Xun's voice.

The fruit knife fell from his hand and fell to the ground. Lin Pei hurriedly opened the window, and the fresh air outside the window rushed into his room like a rapidly leaking balloon.

Song Xun was lying on the window sill outside the window, the crescent moon hung on the top of the cypress tree behind him, his black hair blended into the night, and the wind lifted his broken hair slightly, revealing a beautiful forehead, and Extraordinarily deep eyebrows and eyes.

There is still a little crystal sweat on the forehead.

Lin Pei's mind went blank.

The person who was just talking casually in his mind just now suddenly appeared in front of his eyes... It was like magic.

At that moment, the brain shut down, as if something had cut off the connection between the vision and the nerves, everything seen in the eyes seemed to have been pressed the pause button, and the existing information could not be processed at all.

"Why, you haven't seen me for so long, are you stupid?"

Song Xun waved his hand and urged with a smile, "Get out of the way, I'll sit in."

Lin Pei gave a dumbfounded oh, and subconsciously stepped aside. When Song Xun sat on the window sill of the house with his hands on the window frame, and then bent down to reach something on the tree, Lin Pei suddenly reacted and rushed forward She hugged him around the waist to prevent him from falling, and then snapped: "What are you doing!!"

Song Xun was also stunned, and Lin Peixin jumped out of his fright. He didn't dare to let go, and scolded him loudly, "Are you crazy? Even the second floor is several meters away. What if you fall and become paralyzed?" manage?!"

What if, what if it's like before...

"Hush! Shh!!"

Song Xun was so frightened that he hurriedly looked at the door of his room, and he was relieved when there was no movement, "Keep your voice down, don't wake your dad up."

Lin Pei tried to pull him, "You, you come in first—"

"Don't worry, wait for me."

Song Xun raised his hand, stroked Lin Pei's hair, pressed his arm against the wall behind him, found a strong support point, then bent down to fish——

There was another rustle, and when he sat upright again, Song Xun hung a takeaway bag on his fingers.

At the same time, the olfactory nerves that had been blocked by the brain for a long time finally restarted, and the smell of barbecue wafted into the room along the wind. Before Lin Pei could react, his nose had already sniffed instinctively.

Like a kitten.

At the same time, his stomach let out a long, long-lasting grunt.

Lin Pei: "..."

Song Xun couldn't help laughing, put the takeaway on the table, unwrapped the package, broke open the chopsticks, and stuffed them into his hands, "I knew you wouldn't eat well in the past few days, and I didn't know that your father When will you go back to school..."

This was all he could do, taking advantage of the dark night and high winds, to deliver a takeaway to Lin Pei.

"stop laughing."

Lin Pei looked angry, "Do you know how dangerous it was just now, if something happens to you..."

Before he finished speaking, his gaze had already fallen on the tin foil box.

There were pork belly and chicken wings.

OMG, and roasted cauliflower.

It is impossible to say that you are not hungry. Even after eating grass for a few days, the sheep may not be full.Although he was still a little angry in his heart, Lin Pei's fingers and mouth were very honest, and he put a piece of roasted pork belly into his mouth, and the fat juice and meaty fragrance immediately flowed into his mouth——

what.

Lin Pei asked vaguely while eating: "Are you alone? Are you afraid that the thing will fall?"

"I've dealt with the stuff, it's very strong, don't worry, eat yours." Song Xun fumbled again, and took out two bottles of ad calcium milk from his trouser pocket, "I wanted to bring you milk tea, but it's too big. Take it, just..."

"It's okay, that's enough."

Lin Pei tore open the packaging of the straw, poked on the cover, snapped, and took another sip, "Ah—don't talk about milk tea, you don't know what my life is like, now you can pour some rock sugar into plain water and I can do it Drink it with relish."

As he said that, he suddenly thought of another thing, "Did you see the camera when you came?"

Chris was caught by the camera. After him, Lin Chengxuan seems to have adjusted the angle of their camera, and specially replaced it with a 360-degree infrared camera, which can take pictures of people's faces clearly at night.

The father and son's rooms are not far apart, especially Lin Chengxuan's study is diagonally opposite Lin Pei, and he is probably working at his desk right now.His father wouldn't wait to kick open the door and rush in to beat Song Xun...

"Don't worry." How could Song Xun not be prepared to look through the window of Lin Pei's house, "Before your dad comes back, I asked my dad to call his assistant and find someone to stick the camera on. I'll uncover that later, and then I'll say it's a machine failure, no problem."

"You really..."

Lin Pei couldn't help giving a thumbs up, "If you don't work as a technician, it's a pity to study finance."

The smile on the corner of Song Xun's mouth froze for a moment, but he recovered quickly before Lin Pei noticed, "What's so regrettable? Don't you think it's cool to aspire to be the next Buffett and stir up the world's stock market? It's going to happen every minute." A deal of [-] million, isn't it very bossy?"

"I'm bullying you, what about Buffett? I think you're a Brazilian turtle." Lin Pei snorted, and asked quickly, "By the way, I haven't been to school these days. Is there any movement over there? How is Zhang Wenhui?" gone?"

Song Xun was stunned for a moment, not knowing where to start, "I can't explain a sentence or two about the school... Zhang Wenhui's matter now, let's talk about it in detail when you come back tomorrow."

Also.

After all, the old father is still at home, and every second the two of them talk is dangerous, so it is better to save some time, and it would be a pity to waste it on Zhang Wenhui.

Lin Pei told Song Xun about the conversation between the father and son that afternoon while gnawing on the chicken feet, and then said sullenly: "I really don't understand why my father suppressed me like that. You don't know how terrible the atmosphere was at that time. I have never seen it before." When he was so serious..."

He ate until his fingers were covered with oil. Song Xun took a wet towel from the side and wiped it carefully for him, "And then?"

"Then? How can there be then." Lin Pei leaned his knees on his knees, complaining sadly, "I don't know what happened, I couldn't say a word at that time. When it's time to replay afterward, think about it carefully. , I’m not that bad, am I? Many people of my generation are not as good as me in study and study, and music is not as good as me. Even if I am not as good as he imagined, I will not be mediocre..."

"Yeah, you are indeed outstanding. You are even one of the best in Omega."

Song Xun wrapped the wipes with paper and put them in his pocket so as not to leave 'evidence', and asked calmly, "Then why do you think uncle treats you like you are worthless?"

Lin Pei shook his head subconsciously, "How would I know..."

"Do you know teacher Zhang Wenying from our school?"

Song Xun suddenly talked about another topic.

"I know." Lin Pei thought for a while, "She has a weird temper, and she doesn't do well in class. Didn't she also say that students always complained to her? The teachers in the same batch as her have already been appraised as seniors. She still seems to be doing nothing."

Song Xun smiled, "But before she was teaching, she was also the number one student in the provincial college entrance examination that year. She was recommended for a master's and doctoral degree in her senior year... She is also an absolute leader among the students in the same class."

Lin Pei was stunned.

Song Xun asked again: "If Chris told you that he wanted to study finance, would you agree?"

Lin Pei understood what Song Xun meant, and he frowned slightly, "But I'm not Chris..."

"But to him, you are Chris."

Song Xun nodded between his eyebrows, and said softly, "Think about it, what would happen if you obeyed his conditions?"

"You will work in your own company, and the staff will be at your disposal. He can cultivate the best right-hand man for you from now on, and can lay any brick you need for your tomorrow. You don't have to try and make mistakes , it's absolutely safe here."

"It makes sense, we've all played him like you did with Chris, right?"

"What's the difference?" Lin Pei looked away and interrupted reflexively, "I'm not Chris's father..."

"At least, the feelings of concern for you are not the same." Song Xun smiled, "Have you forgotten? When you told Chris about your plan, he didn't agree. How did you react?"

Lin Pei thought for a while, "He said his, I will do mine."

"That's right." Song Xun said, "Suppose we all oppose you to do it, but if you really want to think about it and feel that this is the most meaningful and valuable thing you can do in your life, then you will ignore it." Our objection, continue to do it?"

Lin Pei hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

"I...you know, I was very independent when I was young. Others disliked me as an Omega and thought that Omega was inferior to Alpha, so I worked hard to get their approval."

His voice was very slow, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, "At that time, some people said that I was a dodder flower, maybe it was like this... The things I did that I thought were right were just blooming in their eyes. But, I will never Can't get other people's approval, always doing what they want to do..."

"I can compromise with others again and again, but what about after everything is compromised? What about my own life?"

Lin Pei's gaze gradually became firmer, "If there are many things in my life that I want to do, and changing one of them will make my father happy, then I am willing to do it. But if there is only one thing I want to do, then I Hope he changes for me."

"So you understand now?"

Song Xun smiled and rubbed his hair, "Don't focus on the result of 'fighting', you can do it regardless of anyone's objections, but you only hope to get his approval, no? ?"

"what do you mean……"

Lin Pei took a deep breath and had an epiphany, "I understand."

What Song Xun meant was that what he needed was not a spear to protect the name, but a shield to protect Lin Chengxuan, so that Lin Chengxuan could truly believe in him. This was what he should do, a meaningful thing.

Instead of wasting energy in other useless places.

What Lin Chengxuan said was actually correct, but he used an inductive language to lead Lin Pei to a wrong direction.The quarrel between Lin Pei and his father would only lead to one result—doubling his choice was proved wrong.

It was just a random move by the old fox who had been in the shopping mall for decades. Lin Pei fell for it and lost.

Song Xun could see clearly from the outside, but he couldn't afford to offend this big Buddha, so he couldn't say bluntly, 'Your father is very bad', so he could only give Lin Pei a few pointers.

Fortunately, Lin Pei is not stupid, so he quickly understood.

"Then I won't do anything in the future. Anyway, he doesn't agree with what I say, so I'll just do what I should do. Study hard, eat well, and sleep well."

Song Xun snapped his fingers, "That's right."

"It's getting late." He glanced at his watch, "If I don't go back, my mother will be worried."

Lin Pei: "...Huh?"

He glanced at the clock on the wall, it was actually only nine o'clock.

At another point of time, if it was daytime, it would be hard for him to imagine that he would have this... feeling of reluctance.

In particular, the object of reluctance is still Song Xun.

As for the meaning of the word 'farewell', Sheng Mingyu taught him half, and Song Xun filled in the other half.

The time they really spend together is not very long, and Lingling may even be less than a year after all, but in this six-year timeline, marks have been drawn one after another.

It seems that on their line, there will never be a focus.

Song Xun looked at Lin Pei quietly, and stroked his hair after a while.

He likes this kind of little tricks very much recently. Sometimes Lin Pei can't understand it, but unexpectedly, he doesn't feel disgusted, and is even willing to accept it.

"I have to go now."

Song Xun repeated.

"you……"

Lin Pei thought for a while, but still didn't say anything.

Auntie may come to bring him milk tea later, although she will not talk too much, but if Lin Chengxuan sees Song Xun here, it will be bad.

Anyway, anyway, we'll meet tomorrow, won't we?

"I'll turn on the light for you later, be careful not to fall." Lin Pei turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, opened the window again, and the cold air was drawn into their breaths, and the wind blew away excess emotions.

Song Xun sat on the window sill again, and threw the finished takeaway box into the bushes in a very soft voice.

He waited to get it.

"What happened today," Lin Pei rubbed his palm, paused for a long time before raising his eyes again, "Xie xi—"

"Don't tell me thank you."

Song Xun said suddenly, "I don't like hearing you say this."

Lin Pei was stunned, "But..."

"If you really thank me..."

In the cool breeze, Song Xun bent over and squatted by the window, pressing one hand on the window frame, and brushing Lin Pei's hair away from his forehead with the other.

A dry, warm kiss.

"Then this is today's reward."
