The cannon fodder girl is rebellious, and she is a fool to catch ghosts and win.

After returning home, Jiang Li searched the Internet for the August 15th case.

Probably the previous director Pei Chengyun was retaliated by the evil forces. His wife and the daughter of the mayor of the imperial capital were held hostage at the same time. The gangsters asked Pei Chengyun to choose one of the two to save.

In the end, Pei Chengyun chose to save the mayor's daughter, causing his wife to be shot dead by gangsters.

The young Pei Qi witnessed his mother's death and hated his father.

Later, Pei Qi never called his father dad again. As an adult, he rarely returned home, let alone after work.

After reading what happened, Jiang Li understood why Pei Qi avoided talking about going home.

After saving the mayor's daughter, Pei Chengyun had a prosperous career as an official. In just a few years, he reached a position that others could not occupy in their lifetime.

In Pei Qi's eyes, his father climbed to heaven by stepping on his mother's corpse, and hatred is normal.

Jiang Li turned off the computer, thought for a while and then sent a message to Pei Qi:

[Tomorrow, on New Year’s Eve, Lin Xi has to go home to be with her parents. If you don’t go home, come over and be with me! 】

Pei Qi quickly replied: [Okay! 】

Jiang Li couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and then quickly got out of bed to clean up the house.

Lin Xi happened to be here too, and he brought a lot of ingredients from home.

"Sister Li, are you sure you don't want to go to my house to celebrate the New Year? My parents welcome you, and my grandparents, uncles and aunts are all here."

"You and your family are celebrating the New Year together, why should I join in the fun!"

Jiang Li knew what Lin Xi was thinking, and also knew that Lin Xi's parents wanted her to be with Lin Xi, but that was why she couldn't go.

She has no feelings for Lin Xi between men and women, and going there would only add to the misunderstanding.

When Lin Xi saw Jiang Li persisting, she gave up:

"Okay then! I'll come and give you New Year greetings on the first day of the new year!"

Jiang Li: "Come on! It's so cold in the morning, please let me sleep a little longer!"

Lin Xi chuckled: "That's right, I may not even be able to get up."

After helping Jiang Li put all the ingredients in the refrigerator, Lin Xi went back.

The next day, Jiang Li was awakened by the sound of fireworks. Fireworks were not allowed to be set off in the imperial capital, but everyone could not avoid this custom and ran to the designated places to set off.

When he heard the doorbell ringing downstairs, Jiang Li wrapped himself in his nightgown and went down.

She thought it was Lin Xi coming again, but when she opened the door, she saw Pei Qi.

"Jiang Li, Happy New Year!" Pei Qi shook the freshly baked sweet-scented osmanthus roast duck and the snacks from Shifangzhai in his hand.

Jiang Li's sleepy eyes lit up instantly:

"smell good!"

"Go and wash up quickly, I'll fillet the duck."

Jiang Li hurriedly ran to the bathroom to wash up. By the time she was ready, Pei Qi had already taken care of the duck and put the hot snacks on the plate.

Jiang Li took a piece of pancake skin, wrapped the roast duck and stuffed it into his mouth. The aroma overflowed, and his taste buds were instantly satisfied.

"Hmm... delicious!"

Seeing Jiang Li eating so happily, Qiongqi was so anxious that he kept wagging his tail at her feet.

Jiang Li gave it a piece of duck meat, but it didn't eat it. It just stared at the pie crust on the table.

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows: "You want to wrap it up and eat it?"

Qiongqi: "Woof woof!"

Jiang Li wrapped the roast duck into the crust, and Qiongqi immediately opened his mouth wide and caught it in one bite.

Pei Qi couldn't help but laugh when he saw this:

"Qiongqi is quite smart. He knows that roast duck must be wrapped in pancake skin to be delicious."

"Why are Captain Pei here so early in the morning? Are you just here to deliver breakfast to me?" Jiang Li asked with a smile.

Pei Qi brought the freshly made coffee to Jiang Li:

"You guessed it right, I really came here today just to bring you warmth."

"We are only celebrating the New Year today and will not talk about the case."

Jiang Li took the cup and clinked it with Pei Qi's cup:

"Okay! Let's celebrate the New Year together today!"

After breakfast, Pei Qi took Jiang Li to the park, built snowmen, and had snowball fights. They played for a long time before going home.

In the evening, Jiang Li washed vegetables and Pei Qi was in charge of cooking. They were very busy.

The New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous. Although there were not many people, Jiang Li and Pei Qi were very satisfied.

Because they had spent the Chinese New Year alone in the past, but this year there was one more person. Even if there was only one person, it would be a comfort to each other's souls.

Jiang Li poured red wine for Pei Qi and raised his glass to him:

"Thank you Captain Pei for coming to celebrate the New Year with me!"

Pei Qi replied: "Thank you for spending the New Year with me!"

Maybe it was the heat, or maybe it was the alcohol, but Jiang Li's face quickly turned red, and his eyes became increasingly blurry.

Pei Qi never lets himself get drunk due to work reasons. He also has a body that never gets drunk, so he is still sober at the moment.

Jiang Li staggered to his side and lay on his shoulder:

"Pei Qi, can I discuss something with you?"

Pei Qi: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Li grinned stupidly and touched Pei Qi's chest muscles dishonestly:

"Can you show me your abs? You can't even see them through your clothes."

Pei Qi's throat tightened and his voice was slightly hoarse:

"Jiang Li, you are still a little girl, don't make trouble!"

"What's wrong, little girl? I'm already eighteen, don't I even have the right to see my abs?"

Jiang Li frowned in annoyance, and she was so drunk that she went straight to tear off Pei Qi's clothes.

The heating was on in the room, so Pei Qi took off his down jacket and only wore a shirt. One of the buttons was quickly ripped off by Jiang Li.

Half of his chest muscles were exposed. Jiang Li's eyes widened and he kept swallowing.

"So lovely!"

Jiang Li's hands covered her, and Pei Qi wanted to stop her, but he was afraid that she would lose her footing and fall, so he could only let her set fire to him.

"Jiang Li, you're drunk, stop making trouble, I'll take you upstairs to sleep!"

"I don't! I won't sleep until you touch me!"

Pei Qi had no choice but to tie Jiang Li's hands in his arms and carry her upstairs.

Qiongqi looked at the situation in front of him and hurriedly returned to his kennel, covering half of his eyes and peeking with the other one.

Pei Qi spent a lot of effort to get Jiang Li into the room, but Jiang Li firmly grabbed his collar:

"Don't leave! I haven't touched enough yet!"

Pei Qi sighed helplessly: "Are you going to sleep if I touch you?"

Jiang Li nodded: "Yes!"

"Okay, let me touch it for you!"

Pei Qi put Jiang Li's hand on his abdomen. As soon as he let go, Jiang Li pulled hard and all the buttons on his shirt were instantly broken.

The shirt was open, and her abdominal muscles and chest muscles were clearly visible.

Jiang Li swallowed and stretched out his fingers to trace the shape of the muscles.

"Captain Pei, your abs are so beautiful!"

Pei Qi's body trembled with Jiang Li's movements, and just when her hand was about to move to Hong Doudou, Pei Qi immediately caught her.

"Okay! I've seen it and touched it. It's time to go to sleep!"

Pei Qi pulled Jiang Li to the bed, but Jiang Li held his neck with great resistance:

"No! I don't want to sleep! I still want to stay vigil with you!"

“You little liar, you don’t keep your words!”

Pei Qi reluctantly and lovingly flicked Jiang Li's forehead.
