Sole decision

Zhou Ce didn't realize what Pei Zhaoxue meant at first, but then he tilted his head, smiled abruptly, and asked Pei Zhaoxue, "What are you talking about? Why did I kill my third brother?"

"He's a waste, and he doesn't pose any threat to you. Even if you let him be an idler, it's fine, but let him live, okay?"

"Axue, I don't understand what you're talking about." Zhou Ce said, "Third brother is my only relative in this world, and it's too late for me to protect him. Why kill him? You are simply dreaming." His narration was very calm, but his heart was turbulent. It turned out that Pei Zhaoxue knew everything, "Since you care about him, I would like to know if you have a good relationship with him? When did it happen? Why don't I know?"

Zhou Ce seems to care too much about who is in Pei Zhaoxue's world. Pei Zhaoxue thinks that he helped Zhou Xiangyun to deceive Zhou Ce and left Zhou Ce with a deep sense of uneasiness. To reassure Zhou Ce, he had to say: "My dad He died to save Zhou Ang."

A picture of his childhood appeared in Zhou Ce's mind.

There were many people at home that night. My father was sitting on the sofa with his hand on the armrest of the sofa. There was a cigarette burning at his fingertips, but my father never smoked. Other uncles were having heated conversations. Zhou Ce didn’t remember the content. At the corner of the stairs, far away from the living room, his mother found him and wanted to put him to bed.

The eldest brother and the second brother stood aside, and Zhou Ce asked where the third brother was. His mother squatted down and stroked his hair and told him that the third brother was playing outside and would be back in a while.

The next day, Pei Zhaoxue came to Zhou's house, and Zhou Ce called him "sister" when he opened his mouth.Zhou Ang has been sleeping and didn't see him until dinner time.Zhou Ang's temperament became more cowardly after that day, even a little afraid of people.

Uncle Pei is also dead.

Zhou Xiangyun told them that Uncle Pei went to rescue the kidnapped Zhou Ang, but the other party suddenly changed his plan and caused a firefight. Uncle Pei was shot to protect Zhou Ang and died unfortunately.The brothers of the Zhou family must remember this kind of kindness for the rest of their lives, and treat Uncle Pei's only son, Pei Zhaoxue, as their own biological brother, caring and taking care of each other.

However, Pei Zhaoxue had little communication with Zhou Ang when he was a child. He knew the truth, but he didn't show any hatred or other emotions towards Zhou Ang. On the day his father died, he never cried.

On the contrary, she was teased by Zhou Ce later and shed tears.

Those are all memories that have been buried deeply by the dust of time.

"The person my father saved with his life." Pei Zhaoxue looked at Zhou Ce, "Can he survive?"

"..." Zhou Ce and Pei Zhaoxue looked at each other. Pei Zhaoxue's reasons were so good that Zhou Ce couldn't refute them. He should even be moved by such a humane story, but he didn't. He was only dissatisfied.He asked Pei Zhaoxue in a low voice: "Could it be that in your eyes... Is that so unbearable?"

Such a sentence has already admitted to Pei Zhaoxue everything he has done, but he wants to see how Pei Zhaoxue reacts.

Only Pei Zhaoxue replied calmly: "This is the path you and I have chosen, there is nothing to be embarrassed about."

Zhou Ce turned his back and remained silent. After a while, he said, "I promise you, Zhou Ang will live, and he will live well."

"Thank you, Zhou Ce."

"On the day he comes out, you should pick him up personally, let him rest well, and come to the banquet at night." Zhou Ce said, "He is always my dear brother of Zhou Ce, and cannot be underestimated by others."

"it is good."

When Zhou Ang left the detention center in the morning, he saw a row of cars waiting outside when he came out of the gate. The leader, Pei Zhaoxue, was dressed formally and stood straight beside the car.He drove the car himself, and Zhou Ang was flattered, but Pei Zhaoxue only said that Mr. Zhou asked him to pick up Zhou Ang.Zhou Ang subconsciously asked which Mr. Zhou it was, and Pei Zhaoxue told him it was Zhou Ce.

Zhou Ang sat in the back row and listened to Pei Zhaoxue's story of what happened during his detention. The important events of life and death were brought up in a few words. Zhou Ang lost his mind and began to cry bitterly.

"Don't cry." Pei Zhaoxue glanced at Zhou Ang who was covering his face in the rearview mirror, "At least you are still alive."

The convoy passed through the busy streets of Lucheng. Zhang Wenjie was leaning against the window in a daze when passing by the city hall. He opened the gauze curtain and looked out when he heard the movement outside. The long convoy was so impressive.He knew that it was Zhou Ce's handwriting. Since he came to work in the city hall, even though he was only a part-time job, he also helped Zhou Ce a lot.They are very good friends, he can see Zhou Ce's changes, but the strange thing is, he doesn't think there is anything strange, and he is a little envious of Zhou Ce.

Zhou Ce is such an excellent person, whether it is studying or running a family business, as long as he wants to do it, he will definitely be able to do it.Zhang Wenjie was much worse than that, perhaps his father also knew that he would not be able to survive the family struggle for too long, so he helped him find a job here.

"It's amazing..." Zhang Wenjie muttered silently.

Zhou Ce was waiting for Zhou Ang in the hall. As soon as Zhou Ang came in, when he saw Zhou Ce, he ran over crying and hugged Zhou Ce.Zhou Ce patted Zhou Ang on the back to comfort him, telling him that everything was over, it was all over.Then, Zhou Ce played tricks on Pei Zhaoxue who was behind Zhou Ang. Pei Zhaoxue pulled Zhou Ang away and sent him to freshen up to wash away the bad luck and haze of these days.

After a simple lunch at home, Zhou Ang said that he wanted to go back to his home, and Zhou Ce sent someone to take him back.His mistress also knew that he was coming back today, so she was waiting for him at home early, and the two of them were considered farewell to newlyweds.

After taking a nap in the afternoon, Zhou Ang got a brand new dress and took his mistress to the hotel where the banquet was held.

The hotel is the property of the Zhou family. It was originally the part that Zhou Jian was in charge of, but now it is under the management of Zhou Ce.He arrived at the scene with Pei Zhaoxue very early. After reading his speech script and the banquet process, he went backstage to rest.

Celebrities from all walks of life in Lucheng and the heads of big families were invited to the banquet, and even the Wang family was on the invitation list. However, due to the relationship between the two families before, it was impossible for Wang Shijin to come, but it was impossible for no one to come. Being able to send a junior symbolically, during this short and peaceful truce period, it can be regarded as not making things too ugly.

Zhou Ce closed his eyes and rested in the background, while Pei Zhaoxue entertained guests outside for him.When the time was almost up, Pei Zhaoxue came to the backstage to call him, but Zhou Ce seemed to have fallen asleep.

Pei Zhaoxue came a little closer, Zhou Ce closed his eyes and frowned, he didn't know what was in Zhou Ce's dream, and was about to reach out to touch Zhou Ce, when Zhou Ce woke up, the moment of vigilance and defense made him subconsciously He held Pei Zhaoxue's hand.

"It's me." Pei Zhaoxue said softly, "It's time to go out."

"it is good……"

Zhou Ce stood up and sorted out his clothes. Master Zhang's craftsmanship was really outstanding, and the tailoring was close to the body but not rigid, which outlined his figure tall and strong.Pei Zhaoxue stood behind Zhou Ce and looked at him, suddenly feeling a little dazed.The current Zhou Ce is like a majestic and majestic mountain, which he can't help but look up to, but it is unattainable.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Ce turned to ask Pei Zhaoxue.

"It's okay." Pei Zhaoxue said, "Did you have a dream just now? What did you dream about?"

Zhou Ce turned his head away without answering.Pei Zhaoxue said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked." Zhou Ce didn't seem to have heard it, and still didn't respond, which seemed that Pei Zhaoxue was a little sentimental.

Outside the door is a long corridor, and the door at the end is the banquet hall.There is only one door between the promenade and the bustle, but it seems too lonely.With Zhou Ce's pace, it took only a few dozen steps to walk through this corridor.Even in this mere dozens of steps, he walked dangerously and cruelly.

Zhou Xiangyun told him to remove obstacles, so his father and his elder brother disappeared on this road.Now, Pei Zhaoxue was the only one by his side.

It seems that from the very beginning, there was only one person—one who had lied to him.

Zhou Ce pressed his hand on the doorknob, and the moment he pushed the door open, he suddenly said, "What if I said I dreamed of you?"

The door opened, and the banquet hall was magnificent and bright, and everyone's eyes were focused on it. Pei Zhaoxue didn't follow even a step, and Zhou Ce melted into the light.Pei Zhaoxue blocked the light with her hands, and saw a smile on Zhou Ce's face, completely different from the silence in the corridor.
