After wearing the book, I attacked the villain boss

Chapter 268, it is nature to protect one's weaknesses

He respects his father very much, and if he sees his father coming to welcome him normally, Pei Xiao will definitely go up to him.

But today... after glancing at the men and women beside the elder, Pei Xiao slowed down, and calmly said to Huo Lingyin: "Shi Yuji is a high-level gold-type superpower, please bear with him and don't go head-to-head with him. "

He knew the character of this cousin very well, and he was afraid that she would run to fight with the Shi family when she was excited - it would be fine if she won, and if she lost, wouldn't she lose the face of the entire Huo family, let alone support Huo Zhiqiang.

Huo Lingyin snorted: "Do you think I am such an impulsive person?"

Pei Xiao looked at her seriously: "You are."

Huo Lingyin: "..."

While talking, the four of them walked up to Pei Qing, and Pei Xiao spoke first: "Dad, I'm back."

"Well, I didn't stay outside for too long this time." Pei Qing smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Just come back."

Holding his son's shoulders, he looked at the girl beside Pei Xiao, and said in a gentle voice, "Listening is here too."

Huo Lingyin greeted politely: "Hello, Uncle."

Uncle?This woman is the young lady of Beichen Huo's family?What does the Huo family mean by sending people here at this time, in order to stop their plan?
Hearing this address, Shi Yujiao and Shi Yuji glanced at each other, the latter shook her head slightly to tell her to be calm.

Pei Qing nodded, then looked at Si Xu and Jiang Ran who were silent, feeling that this young man whom he had never seen before looked somewhat familiar.

Unable to remember where he met him, Pei Qing smiled and asked Pei Xiao: "Are these two your friends?"

Before Pei Xiao could speak, Jiang Ran took a step forward and introduced himself: "Hello Pei Shuai, this is our first meeting. My name is Jiang Ran. This is Si Xu. We are from Xiling base."

I've never heard of the name Jiang Ran. Si Xu...the veins on his forehead twitched. Pei Qing looked at the silent young man and asked in a deep voice, "Professor Si from Xiling Laboratory?"

Si Xu nodded slightly as a greeting.

The young man's lofty attitude made the Shi brothers and sisters beside him frown.

They are not like Pei Huo and others who are rich and powerful, and they know nothing about the development of laboratories and virus research before the end of the world. Naturally, they have never heard of the "notoriety" of Xiling Laboratory and Si Xu.

Shi Yujiao only felt that this young man was arrogant and rude, and guessed that his background might be the same as Pei Xiao's, and he was also a son of a family.

Shi Yuji paid attention to the Xiling Laboratory, and sensed that the young man was a space-type supernatural being, so he thought he was a researcher of the laboratory.

The two had their own thoughts in their hearts, and they didn't introduce themselves for a while.

Pei Qing's gaze was still on Si Xu, Huo Lingyin had already looked at the Shi family brothers and sisters beside him, and asked with a half-smile: "Uncle, are these two..."

Pei Qing came back to his senses, calmly looked away from Si Xu, and replied absently: "This is Mr. Shi Yuji, the person in charge of Zhaoyang Base, and this is his sister."

Huo Lingyin was thoughtful: "Zhaoyang Base? It turns out to be the Patriarch of the Shi family. He has admired his name for a long time. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Shi Yuji was about to reply when Huo Lingyin said again: "Uncle, where is my little aunt? She didn't come?"

Pei Qing glanced at Si Xu, and replied casually: "Your little aunt is not feeling well, resting at home."

"Rest at home?" Huo Lingyin pointed out, "I think the air outside here is not good, and the smoke makes people uncomfortable, so I don't want to go out."

Jiang Ran interjected: "The air is not good?"

Huo Lingyin smiled: "Didn't you smell it? It smells like a fox~"

Jiang Ran: "Oh..." Muttering, "Why didn't I smell it? There are no foxes here?" She also asked Si Xu seriously, "Did you smell Si Xu?"

After finishing speaking, continue to sniff on the left and smell on the right: "Hey, is there something wrong with my nose?"

As Jiang Ran kept mumbling, Shi Yujiao's pretty face became paler and paler.She bit her lips tightly, not knowing whether she should speak out to this woman of unknown origin.

She can be sure that Huo Lingyin came here for Huo Zhiqiang, that's why she is here to criticize and scold Huai. This stinky girl from Xiling base is probably with Huo Lingyin, otherwise why would she pretend to be stupid and help Huo Lingyin slander her?
I have already learned about Jiang Ran's ability to pretend to be stupid and cute. Pei Xiao twitched the corners of his mouth, looked at his silent father, and said in a low voice: "Dad, let's go back and talk——Professor Si and Miss Jiang are both from Xiling. The guests from the base come from afar, I want to arrange for them to live in our house..."

"No need." Hearing Pei Xiao's words, Si Xu said calmly, "We have already found a place to live."

Huo Lingyin was surprised: "You guys just arrived, how did you find a good place to live?"

Pei Xiao instantly remembered that Chu team, he glanced at Si Xu, and said: "I forgot, you have friends here."

Si Xu nodded slightly.

After listening to the conversation between the two juniors, Pei Qing finally gave up looking at Si Xu, and said, "Professor Si, Ms. Jiang, you two have taken good care of your dog along the way. Now that you have arrived at the base of the Eastern Dynasty, let me do my best as a landlord."

The implication is to invite the two of them to stay at Pei's house.

Si Xu's eyes grew a little impatient, but he just pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

Knowing that he didn't want to live in Pei's house, Jiang Ran thanked him politely: "Thank you Pei Shuai, but we haven't seen that friend for a long time, and our longing is like a surging river, endless..."

Pei Qing: "..." This girl looked calm and quiet, why did she talk so much.

Jiang Ran continued: "Furthermore, there are so many distinguished guests in Pei Shuai's mansion. Si Xu and I live in the laboratory and are not good at communication. It would be bad if we bump into your guests."

Pei Qing: "Ahem, since Miss Jiang said so, then—"

Jiang Ran blinked her eyes: "Pei Shuai, we haven't had lunch yet after walking all the way..."

Pei Qing: "..." Oh, so you don't want to live in their house, but you want to have lunch at their house?
The little girl's big eyes are clear and watery, and when she smiles, they bend like crescent moons, revealing a bit of playfulness, like a coquettish little fox, which makes people unable to bear to refuse.

Based on their identities, Pei Qing would not refuse her request.

He laughed heartily: "The guests come from afar, so naturally they should treat them well."

He looked at Pei Xiao: "Go back." Then he whispered, "Your friend, it's very interesting."

What's interesting is Jiang Ran, as for Si Xu... The man smiled wryly.

Si Xu——After hearing this name, he suddenly understood why he felt that this young man he had never met looked familiar.

This child looks very similar to his wife who has been with him day and night for nearly 30 years.

If it weren't for the young man's eyes being too cold, which diluted the first impression of that exquisite face, he would have guessed his identity at the first sight.

Secretary Xu.

It was this child who made Huo Zhihua, who usually lived in seclusion and didn't care about world affairs, insist on going to the Xiling base.

That's him.

Really like, really like.
