The real fortune is not lost, change the start to train the dog

Chapter 411 Meeting Gift

At first glance, Song Yanming's words seem to be very problematic.

If you think about it carefully, it’s not a small problem.

It’s even a little scary when you think about it.

There is obviously nothing wrong, yet there are problems everywhere.

What do you mean by 'not doing it in recent years'? What about doing it in previous years?

What are the years in the past few years? Is it seven or eight years? Or one or two years?

It was also the first time that Pei Jin saw someone who could make a legal position sound like an outlaw or a fugitive suspect.

The more you explain, the more counterproductive it will be.

It's like a safe place will never actively use safety as a gimmick. The reason why it promotes safety must be based on the impression that it was once unsafe.

Places with good public security will not specifically emphasize "there are no criminals here."

Similarly, people like Song Yanming who say there is nothing wrong with them the more they say they have problems actually have more problems.

Ignore these numerous and dense complaints that make it difficult to find a priority point to complain about.

Pei Jin shifted his gaze away from Song Yanming's certificate with a black background and gold-embossed patterns, engraved with "Special Operations Service".

He still remembered Bai Yuan's previous special instructions and did not waste too much time on these details, nor let too much of his attention be diverted.

Instead, he politely called Song Yanming "Brother".

There was even a hint of sincerity in his tone.

It was precisely because of Song Yanming's words, which seemed serious but were actually half a joke, coupled with the long passage of endorsement about the Song family that Bai Yuan had just told him.

After having a deeper understanding of Song Yanming and the Song family in Beijing, Pei Jin felt less restrained and distant when facing this famous eldest son of the Song family who had both good and bad reputations.

Much more relaxed and comfortable.

After getting rid of the filter brought by the rumors, Pei Jin can also look at the way Bai Yuan and Song Yanming get along with each other with a more normal attitude.

After comparing Song Yanming and Wen Yiche one by one, he quickly came to the conclusion:

did you see!

This is the atmosphere that should exist between proper siblings!

What is a proper sibling?

This is what we call a proper brother and sister!

They would make up some stories behind people's backs no matter what, and even if they were complaining, it would be a legitimate complaint.

A bit like enemies, and a bit like nemesis.

Every moment and every second is spent trying to find a way to kill the other party, or to bully the other party.

But no matter what, the final relationship is mostly indulgence, mixed with a bit of difficult helplessness.

Everything was right there, and Pei Jin could see it clearly.

Obviously, he is not comparable to Wen Yiche, who is selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton.

Since this is Bai Yuan's real "brother", Pei Jin naturally had to be more respectful and polite, and quickly put away all the nonsense in his mind.

Young Master Pei has a good face. As long as he wants, he can use this unique advantage to please anyone. Now, once he has restrained his arrogant and domineering appearance of the past, he looks like a different person, and is unspeakably well-behaved.

Song Yanming raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then looked up at Bai Yuan.

This glance means: Is it too early to change the catchy phrase?

Then he raised the corner of his mouth in an ambiguous manner.

This is another joke to Bai Yuan: So well behaved? Has he been trained? He doesn't seem to be very active at all?

Of course, all he got in the end was Bai Yuan's expressionless stare.

If it weren't for maintaining his demeanor and decency, Bai Yuan would even add a finger between the index finger and the ring finger.

"Oh, the kid is quite polite." Seeing this, Song Yanming responded to Pei Jin's "brother" with a smile in his eyes and praised him jokingly.

Then, he half-closed his eyes and looked away. He casually reached into his arms and took out a pack of cigarettes. He first took one out and held it in his mouth, then passed it to Pei Jin. His movements were smooth and fluent, as if he had practiced them several times beforehand. "Want one?"

Pei Jin was stunned for a moment, and the look he gave Song Yanming became subtle.

I didn't expect that with Bai Yuan's obsession with cleanliness, he could find a smoking "brother". How could he tolerate secondhand smoke?

How can this be the childhood friend I grew up with?

My brother is no more than this, right?

Pei Jin shook his head and said, "No, brother, I don't smoke."

Song Yanming didn't care much, "It's okay, she doesn't care about me here."

As he said this, he looked up at Bai Yuan again as if to confirm.

It sounded like Song Yanming's words were nothing more than his worry that Pei Jin would not be able to accept the situation due to Bai Yuan's strict supervision. With him here, Bai Yuan would always be more accommodating to him as his "brother", so it wouldn't matter whether it was possible or not, or whether it was accurate or not.

Normally, if someone is a regular smoker, he would be shaken when hearing what was said.

Even if you say "no, no", when faced with cigarettes being handed to you again and again, no matter how much you can endure and hide, your true colors will be revealed.

While taking it, you might even try to justify yourself by saying "Brother has already said it, so I can't refuse."

Song Yanming looked at Pei Jin leisurely, waiting for his reaction.

Pei Jin remained unmoved and refused again, "I really don't smoke."

As he spoke, his brows slightly frowned, and a hint of hesitation and embarrassment flashed in his azure eyes, as if he was weighing how to say it so as to achieve his goal without offending or offending Song Yanming.

"Brother..." Pei Jin said, "Smoking is harmful to your health. You should smoke less."

He looked at Song Yanming's bag and saw that it was deflated and there were only a few pieces left in it.

Pei Jin added: "I'm fine, but Bai Yuan...she can't stand the smell of smoke."

Of course, the first half is false.

Young Master Pei has had a pointed nose since he was a child and a picky mouth. There is not a single part of his body that does not resemble a noble young master, and he is extremely picky about everything.

Even when he hangs out with his craziest friends, no matter how wild the party is, smoking is prohibited at the party.

Since you have joined Pei Jin's game, if you want to get closer, you have to abide by the rules of Young Master Pei.

If you really can't hold it in, go find a well-ventilated corner and get rid of the smell before coming back.

Because of this, people around him often laughed at him and called him a pampered "young lady".

As a man, how can you not smoke?

They sound high-sounding, but in fact, they are still young boys who are just trying to imitate adults to act cool and mature. What kind of men can they be called?

So much so that at the beginning, there were still many people who didn't believe it. Not only did they pass the cigarettes to Pei Jin, they also urged him to take a puff to try it.

He even said in a nice way: "Everyone smokes, how can we not smoke at a party? Master Pei, are you really putting on airs to make all of us accommodate you? The minority obeys the majority. If you really go out, there won't be many people left in this room. Don't you think this is the truth, Master Pei?"

This statement is somewhat inappropriate.

Such idiots are rare.

Pei Jin didn't tolerate it either. With his temper as a young master, how could he tolerate such humiliation?

That day, the person who was speaking learned what it means to be "pretentious".

Since then, no matter whether it was Pei Jin who set up the bureau or not, as long as this young master was around, there was no trace of "worldly atmosphere".

Everyone felt that they could hold it in if they could, and those who couldn't would find an excuse to leave first. The previous ignorant and incomprehensible things never happened again.

Therefore, Pei Jin's first half of the sentence "I'm fine" was actually said against his will because of Bai Yuan and his identity as "Bai Yuan's brother".

After all, Song Yanming on the opposite side had offered him cigarettes twice, and it would be somewhat ungrateful for him to refuse again.

As for the later mention that Bai Yuan used her as an excuse to talk about current affairs, it was purely using Bai Yuan as a shield, taking shelter under a big tree and borrowing some light.

Even if Song Yanming doesn't give him face, he should at least give some face to Bai Yuan, right?

Of course, the main reason was that he didn't want Song Yanming to think that he was "troublesome", "pretentious" and "pretentious", leaving a bad impression on Bai Yuan's friends.

It's just that Master Pei felt wronged because he had never been so condescending in giving advice to others in his entire life.

After racking my brains, I could only come up with the following sentence: "Smoking is harmful to your health."

Even though I wanted to say a few more words, I just didn't have anything to say.

On weekdays, the flattery from his followers around him went in one ear and out the other, as if it was nothing.

At this time, Pei Jin actually still had a feeling of "regret not having enough when needed".

If Song Yanming were to make trouble for him behind his back and say something unreasonable to Bai Yuan because of this, he would be so wronged!

Therefore, when Pei Jin looked at Song Yanming again at this time, his heart was beating like a drum.

I felt that the slight bit of reserve and distance that I had finally gotten rid of was now returned completely without any loss.

This is not much different from "meeting the parents".

Whether you can pass the test or not depends on this one move.

Thinking of this, Pei Jin even made full use of his greatest natural advantage.

Those azure blue eyes became more moist and clear, looking at Song Yanming without a trace of impurities, trying to make herself look more sincere and honest, waiting for Song Yanming's verdict.

Fortunately, Song Yanming did not force it anymore, as if he was really moved by Pei Jin. He took back the cigarette in his hand and put it in his arms.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

As for the cigarette in his mouth, he didn't spit it out, but he didn't take out a lighter to light it either.

Instead, he just bit it with his mouth, looked at Pei Jin with a half-smile, and took out from his arms again -

Pei Jin felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. He swallowed unconsciously, fearing that he would try to get something out of him that he couldn't accept.

At this moment, Song Yanming suddenly chuckled and handed the thing in his hand to Pei Jin.

"Here, take it. It's a fee for changing your words. I can't let you call me brother for nothing. This is a gift for you."

Pei Jin looked down and his eyes fell on the palm-sized, rectangular, red, envelope-shaped paper bag in the other person's hand, and he was stunned.

——This is a red envelope.

Pei Jin thought about it a lot, but he never thought that Song Yanming would give him this thing. However, it was not a festival, and besides, weren't these things given after paying respects to the two elders at the wedding?

For a moment, his brain was frozen and he couldn't think straight, so he turned his eager eyes to Bai Yuan.

It's like a dog who is faced with food given by a stranger but can't make up his mind whether to eat it or not, and can only look back at his owner, trying to get help and advice from her.

Song Yanming was not in a hurry either. He just held the red envelope in the same posture as he handed it over, and looked at Bai Yuan leisurely.

Facing the simultaneous gazes of the two, Bai Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at the "red envelope" in Song Yanming's hand, and guessed what was inside based on its size and weight.

Bai Yuan turned to look at Pei Jin and said to him, "Take what my brother gives you."

After hearing Bai Yuan's approval, Pei Jin took the red envelope given by Song Yanming and held the so-called "change of words fee" in his hand.

As soon as he took over, Pei Jin noticed something was wrong.

This heavy weight feels like neither cash, nor a bank card or any other "anytime swipe" card.

Considering its shape and hardness, it looks more like... a thin piece of metal.

Pei Jin temporarily suppressed his doubts, the urge and curiosity to open the red envelope on the spot to find out what was inside, and thanked Song Yanming politely.

Pei Jin: "Thank you, brother."

"polite."

Song Yanming pulled the corner of his lip, put one hand in his pocket, took out the cigarette from his mouth with the other hand, and held it between his fingers. While posing, he did not forget to use his peripheral vision to see how he could throw away the cigarette.

He was just pretending to be mysterious and creating a certain persona.

He doesn't want to smoke, and he can't put it back in his mouth!

The last time Bai Yuan caught him in the compound, he just lit the cigarette and held it between his fingers. He tried several times but didn't dare to put it in his mouth.

After returning home, I washed the hand that I used to smoke several times, and almost rubbed it bald.

Bai Yuan has mysophobia and can't smell the smell of smoke, but he is not much better than her!

Come to think of it, Bai Yuan's mysophobia was transmitted to her by Song Yanming. If she really gets sick, Bai Yuan has to stand aside.

In order to help Bai Ou test the character of his future sister-in-law and whether she has any bad habits, he risked all his money.

It's not easy for him, a person with advanced mysophobia!

Work injury!

This has to be considered a work injury!

Fortunately, apart from the fact that Song Yanming was relatively useless, the final result was still good.

Song Yanming looked at Pei Jin with a lot more satisfaction in his eyes, and continued:

"We're all family, don't be so formal with me."

"One family"...

Hearing this word, Pei Jin paused while holding the red envelope, and felt his face getting a little hot.

Even the red envelope in his hand seemed to become extra hot because of these three words, and it made his palms feel hot and numb like needles.

Pei Jin used a lot of effort to prevent himself from turning his head to look at Bai Yuan again, and his hand holding the red envelope clenched even tighter.

I think I have successfully passed the stage of meeting the parents, right?

After taking in Pei Jin's reaction, Song Yanming curled his lips again, turned to look at Bai Yuan, and continued what he had not finished saying when he entered the room:

"Your brother Sheng will be discharged from the hospital today. Come with me to pick him up from the hospital later."

After saying that, he looked at Pei Jin in front of him and invited him in the same way: "It's just right, you can come too, to meet the new "Boss Zhou" of Shenghua Entertainment. If nothing unexpected happens, he has been in Haiqi in recent years, so we will inevitably have dealings in the future..."
