Chapter 116: It’s Very Scary for an Old man to Fall In Love for the First Time

Back in the room, Pei Huai went to the bathroom to take a shower.
As a clean freak, it was normal for him to take a shower before going out and after going home every day.
When he came out of the shower, his hair was still slightly wet. Water droplets slid down his ears to his neck, and he wiped them off with his fingertips.
His skin was very fair and his exquisitely sculpted silhouette was as perfect as a Greek G.o.d. His amazing figure hidden under his gentle appearance was jaw-dropping.
He took out his phone and saw a WeChat message from the psychiatrist.
“CEO Pei, if you’re free now, can we talk?”
Pei Huai picked up his bathrobe and draped it over his body before calling him.
Lin Shen was waiting by his phone the whole time. When the phone rang, he picked it up in a second.
After receiving the WeChat message from his historian friend the other day, he had asked his friend to double-check it many times.
However, his friend confirmed with him, “I specialize in the history of the Shang Dynasty. Didn’t you watch my episode of ‘h.e.l.lo, Sunday’? How could I have misheard?”
Logically speaking, if one dreamed of a language that they had never heard before, it should not exist in reality.
However…
“CEO Pei, try to recall if you’ve ever heard the language of the great Shang Dynasty.”
“The great Shang Dynasty? Why do you ask?” Pei Huai narrowed his eyes.
“The ancient language you described to me last time has been verified by professional historians. They confirmed that it’s the language of the great Shang Dynasty…”
Pei Huai’s hand, which was tying the bathrobe belt, paused, “are you sure?”
“Yes,” Lin Shen was very certain.
“Do you know what it means?” Pei Huai asked.
This historian friend did explain to Lin Shen, but he felt that there might be subtle differences in the interpretation, because it was translated literally to “Sis, you’re so fair…”
“…”
Both of them fell into silence.
After a full minute, Pei Huai sighed, “alright, let me think about it.”
It sounded like it was spoken by a girl. Did he really make up those words based on the girl’s personality in his dream?
However, one thing was for sure. He was indeed proficient in many languages, but it didn’t include the ancient language of the great Shang Dynasty.
The tomb in his dream was from that era, and so was the language.
Now, even she had entered his dream.
What did all these mean?
This was getting more and more interesting…

The next morning, Shen Mu received a message from the CEO.
Finally, there was no need for a meeting today!
Pei Huai was dressed in a cla.s.sic tailored suit today. The matte watch on his wrist was low-key, but he looked cla.s.sy.
As he was going out, he saw Pei Xingxing eating a bun in the dining room.
Pei Huai was reminded of the little boy from the Si family.
He addressed Su Ji as “sis”, but he called him…”uncle”.
“Xingxing.”
PEI Xingxing turned around and was mesmerized by Pei Huai’s handsomeness, “what?”
“What do you call Su Ji?”
Pei Xingxing’s big, bright eyes blinked, “pretty sister…”
“And me?”
“Uncle?”
“If I wasn’t your little uncle and was someone you didn’t know, what would you call me?”
Pei Xingxing put two fingers on his head and tried to understand what he was trying to say. Then, he replied, “the same I guess!”
The veins on Pei Huai’s forehead twitched.
“So, you think I’m very old?”
Pei Xingxing smugly waved his training chopsticks at him, “of course, Ms. Su is young and you are a 30-year-old man! Dad said that it’s very scary for a 30-year-old man like you to fall in love for the first time!”
Pei Huai’s face was as dark as charcoal. Fortunately, Pei Song appeared in time and took him away. “You little brat! How dare you sell your own father out! Are you tired of living??”
He turned around and met his brother’s frightening gaze. Pei Song knew that he would not help with the prescriptions for the next year and a half…
Poor him!

In the morning, Liu Yiqing came back from the dance cla.s.sroom. She was tall and slender, and her long hair was tied up behind her head. She looked very elegant.
The moment she entered the office, she was surprised.
Usually, there would be five or six teachers in the office, but it was surprisingly quiet today.
Just as she thought that she had forgotten about a meeting, she glanced at the corner and saw a man in a suit sitting on the chair opposite her desk.
Even if Liu Yiqing was not interested in other people’s business, she knew who this man was just by looking at his face, which was even more unique than Pei Song’s.
Liu Yiqing had a bad feeling. She closed her eyes, turned around, and returned to her desk, pretending not to see him.
As the head of the Pei Corporation, Pei Huai had never been treated so coldly.
But for Su Ji’s sake, he was happy to do so.
“Ms. Liu, can we talk?” he smiled gentlemanly.
Liu Yiqing put the pen in her hand into the holder and straightened her neck arrogantly, “if I say no, will you leave immediately?”
“I heard that you asked Su Ji to promise you not to date anyone from the Pei family?” Pei Huai smiled.
He went straight to the point, and Liu Yiqing’s eyes drifted a little.
To be honest, it did sound strange to make such a request to a student, but now that Pei Huai came to her about it, it proved it was necessary for her to take action!
“Yes, that’s right.” Liu Yiqing was never married. She was a very strong-willed woman. “CEO Pei, please don’t take it to heart. I already have a student who has been destroyed by someone from the Pei family. I have high hopes for Su Ji. I don’t want her to become the next…”
Liu Yiqing’s heart ached and she didn’t want to continue.
Pei Huai crossed his long legs and changed his sitting position. “Ms. Liu, you’re being too harsh. Sonya is a star now and her future is bright.”
Liu Yiqing snorted, “what’s the use of being successful now? Her marriage, as well as her taking a break from school to give birth, were all time bombs! If the media finds out about it one day, no matter how successful she is now, it will destroy her!”
Regarding what happened between Sonya and Pei Song back then, there was no right or wrong.
Pei Huai chose the fastest way to sell his brother out. “I’m ashamed of my brother’s lack of self-control back then. But don’t worry, Ms. Liu. I’m different from my brother…”
