I accidentally messed with a wealthy family, and my blind date was the CEO.

As the footsteps of Pei Jingchuan and Pei Yanqing gradually approached, Pei Tianxiong and Uncle Pei came out of their thoughts and turned their eyes to the two young men coming downstairs.

Under the light, the faces of the two young people looked a little tired, but their eyes shone with excitement and satisfaction that could not be concealed.

Pei Tianxiong nodded slightly, with a faint smile on his face, and his eyes were full of his father's unique tolerance.

Uncle Pei also nodded, with warmth in his eyes. He gently put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, then leaned more comfortably, ready to listen to the young man's night talk.

"It's so late, what are you two doing down here?" Pei Tianxiong's voice was low and calm. He tried to sound relaxed and didn't want to put pressure on the children.

Pei Yanqing was the first to answer, "Dad, my brother and I couldn't sleep, so we just wanted to come down and get some air." There was a hint of relaxation in his voice.

After hearing Pei Yanqing's words, Pei Tianxiong took a deep breath of smoke and turned his eyes to the night sky outside the window, as if looking for the disappearing fireworks.

His voice was filled with the vicissitudes of time and a hint of light humor: "As I get older, I will have to leave it to you to stay up late on New Year's Eve."

Uncle Pei also smiled. He patted Pei Tianxiong gently on the shoulder, as if conveying a tacit understanding silently: "Yes."

Pei Jingchuan and Pei Yanqing looked at each other and smiled. They felt a kind of inheritance in the words of their fathers.

As the conversation in the living room gradually came to an end, Pei Tianxiong and Uncle Pei both stood up, their movements showing a bit of slowness and calmness.

Pei Tianxiong gently pressed out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray. Thin smoke lingered in the air and then dissipated.

Uncle Pei also put out his cigarette, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of the deep friendship they had been with each other for many years.

"It's getting late, it's time for us to rest." Pei Tianxiong's voice was low and full of magnetism. He turned his head and looked out the window. The night was like water and the stars were dotted.

Uncle Pei nodded in agreement, and the two of them walked towards the stairs one after the other, walking slowly.

Their figures stretched under the light, as if time had become extraordinarily slow in this quiet night.

When he reached the stairs, Pei Tianxiong looked back at Pei Jingchuan and Pei Yanqing, who were still standing in the living room, and said calmly: "Remember to go to bed early." His tone was full of unspoken instructions.

Pei Jingchuan and Pei Yanqing nodded and watched the two elders slowly go upstairs until their figures completely disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Pei Jingchuan and Pei Yanqing looked at each other and smiled. As the elders left, the living room returned to their world again.

Pei Jingchuan walked to the sofa and sat down casually, and Pei Yanqing also sat next to him.

The figures of the two looked particularly harmonious under the soft light of the living room.

In front of the TV, the program of the Spring Festival Gala has come to an end. The excitement on the stage is in sharp contrast with the tranquility of the home.

Pei Jingchuan looked at the TV. Although the picture was still lively, his mind didn't seem to be there.

There was no awkwardness in the silence between the two, but more of an unspoken understanding.

Pei Yanqing occasionally caught a glimpse of Pei Jingchuan's profile, which showed a tired but satisfied look. It was obvious that tonight's activities had given him a lot to think about.

Pei Yanqing looked at the TV screen quietly, but his eyes seemed to have passed through the bustling scene in front of the TV and landed on the vague memories in the distance.

His voice was low and somewhat emotional, breaking the silence in the living room: "Brother, tell me, have we grown up in the blink of an eye?"

Pei Jingchuan's eyes were still on the TV, but it was obvious that his mind was not on the content of the program.

He was silent for a moment and did not directly answer Pei Yanqing's question.

Under the soft light of the living room, Pei Yanqing's words flowed slowly, with a little nostalgia and a warm smile.

His eyes sometimes fell on Pei Jingchuan, and sometimes drifted to the dim light on the TV screen, as if that light could take him back to those carefree days.

"Do you still remember? That time at grandma's house, you secretly put me in a big bucket, and then told me that the bucket would walk on its own." Pei Yanqing's voice was full of joking, and he gently pushed Pei Jingchuan's shoulder, trying to Get his attention.

Pei Jingchuan then turned his head, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a faint smile flashed in his eyes, as if he recalled that scene.

"The bucket really moved, and you were so scared that you cried." His voice was low and powerful, with irrepressible tenderness.

Pei Yanqing glared at him pretending to be angry, "That's because you were pushing from behind. I really thought that bucket was magical."

As they spoke, both of them couldn't help but laugh. The warm memories seemed to bring them back to their carefree childhood.

Pei Jingchuan put away his smile, and his eyes fell softly on Pei Yanqing, with a hint of guilt in his eyes, "I was really naughty when I was a child, and I always liked to tease you."

Pei Yanqing shook his head and interrupted him with a smile, "Brother, those things are in the past, and it is precisely because of those little fights that our relationship is stronger. You have been my hero since childhood, no matter how many times you bully me, I know that when I encounter difficulties, you will always be the first to stand up and protect me."

After hearing this, Pei Jingchuan recalled the scene in his mind, as if he could vividly remember it.

He reached out and patted Pei Yanqing's shoulder gently, his voice slightly choked, "Yan Qing, no matter how old we are, you will always be the little brother in my heart who needs my protection."

The conversation between the two was filled with deep feelings for each other.

Those years, whether it was laughter or tears, have become precious memories in their hearts.

Pei Jingchuan's voice was slightly aged, but full of power: "In those years, we experienced a lot together. You grew from a little kid who always followed me to a strong supporter by my side."

Pei Yanqing felt the emotional fluctuations in Pei Jingchuan's words, and a warm current surged in his heart: "Brother, that's because you are in front of me to show me the way, letting me know that no matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I will not be afraid."

The two were silent for a while, and then Pei Yanqing's eyes suddenly lit up and he said mischievously: "Speaking of embarrassing things, I remember the time you accidentally fell into the river while trying to catch butterflies for me, and your grandma slapped you hard. Got a lesson."

Hearing this, Pei Jingchuan showed an embarrassed and funny expression on his face, and shook his head helplessly: "That time was so embarrassing, I don't even want to mention it."

Pei Yanqing couldn't help laughing when he saw Pei Jingchuan's reaction, and the atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.

The laughter between them echoed in this warm night, like a continuation of those beautiful memories.

Proving that no matter how time passes, their brotherhood will always remain strong.

At that moment, the tranquility of the living room was broken by a sudden noise from upstairs, and the two of them were instantly pulled back to reality from the relaxed atmosphere immersed in past memories.
