Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

Chapter 18: Becoming the President's Sickly White Moonlight 18

Mr. Pei’s birthday banquet was held in the old house of the Pei family. Pei Zhisheng specially hired craftsmen to build the venue in several days.

Pei Yu did not ask Butler Li to drive him there. When he arrived, there were already many cars parked outside the Pei residence.

"Hey? Whose car is that?"

The little girl in pink pulled the girl in black dress next to her and asked in a low voice.

The girl in the black dress shook her head: "I don't know him."

"That person must be from a small and unknown family. You must know all the rich kids in this circle, Sister Wanwan."

Xia Anwan said nothing and clenched her fingers.

It was a low-key Rolls-Royce Ghost. Xia Anwan stared at the car, waiting for the person to get out of it.

The first thing that appeared was the long legs of the car owner sticking out of the car, followed by the whole body, and then a face with eyebrows and eyes as delicate as an ink painting, handsome and elegant.

As if sensing Xia Anwan's gaze, he turned his head and looked over with a friendly smile on his face.

Xia Anwan's breath was choked, and she squeezed her sister's hand hard, causing her to cry out in pain.

"pain!"

Xia Anwan loosened her grip and said, "I've decided. I don't want to get engaged to Pei Liang!"

The little sister was in pain: "Ah?"

Xia Anwan snorted softly: "A rotten cucumber is not worthy of me, at least it should be the man just now!"

She frowned and pointed at Pei Yu's departing back.

Sister: "How can you be sure that this person is not you?"

"He's definitely not!"

Xia Anwan took her little sister's hand and walked into the Pei family's old house.

"Uncle Zhang."

Pei Yu raised his hand and hugged the short middle-aged man, who nodded with tears in his eyes.

Butler Zhang touched Pei Yu's hand and said, "It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back!"

Pei Yu smiled and asked: "Where is grandpa?"

"The old man is practicing Tai Chi on the rooftop of the third floor. I'll take you in."

Butler Zhang wiped his tears.

When Pei Yu went up, he saw an old man in shorts and shorts practicing Tai Chi in the cold wind. His moves were neat and powerful.

As the old man moved, his muscles tightened into smooth lines, and he looked stronger than most young people.

Hearing the sound of someone coming up, the old man suddenly stopped his movements and turned around to face Pei Yu.

Old Master Pei's eyes lit up, he strode over, raised his hand and hit Pei Yu hard on the chest, which made Butler Zhang tremble with fear.

Pei Yu was helpless: "Grandpa!"

Old Master Pei said cheerfully: "Okay, you have recovered well after so many years abroad! You can tell from your training that you have such muscles! Come and show them off to me, an old man!"

"Forget it, grandpa. If I hurt you, my dad won't let me go." Pei Yu sighed.

"Hey!"

Mr. Pei blew his beard angrily and stared.

He looked at Pei Yu for a long time, and finally, after a moment of silence, he decisively gave up the proposal.

When he was young, he had seen too many people on the battlefield. Pei Yu's muscles were different from those piled up in the gym. They were all trained by real fighting. Not to mention his old bones now, even if he was young, he probably wouldn't be able to do anything to Pei Yu.

Mr. Pei glanced at Butler Zhang and said, "Go down. I want to chat with my grandson for a while."

Butler Zhang nodded.

When there were no outsiders on the rooftop, Mr. Pei walked to the recliner with his hands behind his back and lay down.

Pei Yu also followed and sat on the recliner.

Mr. Pei glanced at him and said, "Tell me, what do you want your grandfather for?"

"What? I just want to talk to grandpa."

"You little brat, stop playing dumb with your grandfather. If you have something to say, just tell him. Don't learn from your good-for-nothing uncle."

Pei Yu smiled when he heard this and said, "I can't really hide anything from you, Grandpa. Then I'll tell you straight away."

"I want to know something about Mrs. Qu."

"Mrs. Qu? The mother of that kid Qu Shenyi?" Old Master Pei was stunned.

Old Master Pei looked Pei Yu up and down, puzzled: "Why did you think of asking her?"

"I have recently encountered some things related to Mrs. Qu. I have some doubts and would like to ask you, Grandpa."

Old Master Pei picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Mrs. Qu is also Zhou Jing. I held her in my arms when she was a child. She was a serious little girl who was as hard as steel. She couldn't stand being teased at all!"

"Later, she married that wooden-faced boy from the Qu family. Oh my, they were really two pieces of wood put together! Boring! Extremely boring!"

At this point, Mr. Pei's expression immediately became much more serious: "The couple are both research geeks, and have always been immersed in the laboratory. Later, the kid from the Qu family was suddenly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and soon died of bone metastasis. After that, Zhou Jing also left the laboratory.

The couple were the backbone of the laboratory, but soon the laboratory was completely disbanded, and later due to fire detection issues, the laboratory was also demolished. "

Mr. Pei paused, his voice tinged with sadness: "A few months later, Zhou Jing went to the hospital for a checkup and was diagnosed with leukemia. She then went abroad, and not long after that... Alas, the couple left behind this little guy, Qu Shenyi."

Pei Yu was silent for a moment, then said, "Then Zhou Jing gave her jade necklace to collector Campbell abroad. After the auction ended a few days ago, Qu Shenyi, who had bought the necklace, was stalked and attacked."

"Ridiculous! These people are so bold!"

Mr. Pei slammed the table suddenly and gasped for breath.

Pei Yu raised his hand and pressed down on Mr. Pei's shoulder, allowing him to sit down safely.

Mr. Pei gulped down a cup of tea and said, "Is the boy okay?"

Pei Yu shook his head.

After confirming that Pei Yu had not concealed anything, Old Master Pei let out a long sigh and pondered for a while.

"So you think this matter has something to do with that laboratory?"

Pei Yu nodded and said: "Because the laboratory was demolished a long time ago, many things were hidden, so I want to ask you for help, after all, you have close relations with the military."

Pei Yu praised Mr. Pei appropriately.

Old Master Pei hummed in a smug manner: "Of course! Leave it to your grandfather, don't worry! I'll give you the information you want within ten days... no! Within five days!"

"Okay, I'll leave it to Grandpa then."
