After wearing the book, I attacked the villain boss

Chapter 401 Extra Story, Prosperous Fireworks 1
Pei Xiao visited Xiling Base again, seven years later.

In the past seven years, Pei Qing came forward for any meeting and communication, and Secretary Jin made a record and came back to discuss with him.

Now, a new order has been re-established, and Pei Qing is slowly letting go, handing over the power of the Pei family to him.

This was Pei Xiao's first time attending a meeting at the Xiling Base after taking over the job of Patriarch.

Time passed silently. In the past seven years, the Xiling base has changed a lot, but it seems that nothing has changed.

The Shen family is still in power in the association, and many new families have risen.

There will always be various troubles in the dispute between old and new families.

It's the same in the East, Beichen, and South County, but there is no major disturbance in the Xiling base, no matter the old or new family, they are all obedient and peaceful.

The reason is that Professor Si stayed at Xiling base for the past six years and didn't go out to wander around.

Those who wanted to cause trouble, or those who moved their minds, were all bluffed by his violent means.

Moreover, the Shen family also has a Qin Huai who doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement... Anyone who has come from the end of the world will know the vicious reputation of these two people.

However, Si Xu has a high prestige in the hearts of the people and the supernatural beings. If you want to make trouble with him, you have to worry about whether you will be drowned by everyone's saliva... In short, he is a person who cannot be offended.

Pei Xiao did not comment on this review.

The Patriarch of the Pei family, the base of the Eastern Dynasty, came to visit, and the Shen family arranged for the second young master, Shen Bai, to receive the distinguished guests.

I haven't seen him for a few years. The man doesn't seem to have changed, but his temperament is more stable than before.

Seeing Pei Xiao, the corners of his mouth curved obviously. When someone approached, he said helplessly: "The Patriarch of the Pei family is really busy. After so many years, it is our good fortune that he is willing to come to Xiling to have a look."

When old friends meet, they feel less restrained, and Pei Xiao also smiles: "I haven't seen you for a few years, and you make fun of me as soon as we meet. Your welcome ceremony is really special."

"No, after all, it impressed you deeply, so I will think about coming again next time."

The two joked a few words, and Shen Bai took him to visit the rebuilt Xiling City.

"Whether the virus has been completely cleaned up is still in the investigation stage, so the city wall is temporarily reserved, just in case.

"The laboratory was refurbished and changed to the West Ridge Research Institute.

"Schools have reopened, there are not many students, and teachers are hard to find...After the disaster, only a few people survived.

"I heard that you are coming, the elder brother took his sister-in-law out - he knows very well what he owes you, no, it should be said, our Shen family owes you something."

Hearing this, Pei Xiao, who had been nodding with a smile, suppressed his smile, frowned, and interrupted Shen Bai: "You don't owe me anything."

Just like Jiang Ran said, before Pei Wan'er passed away, none of their relatives gave her any warmth, but after her death, they all threatened to avenge her...

Pei Wan'er was a victim of the intrigue between the two elders, and also a victim of the power struggle between the Shen family and the Yu family—these people who are alive now are all her debtors, so how can there be any distinction between closeness and distance?
Unexpectedly, he would answer like this, Shen Bai smiled unexpectedly, and did not continue this topic.

There are people coming and going on the street, and there is a lot of noise.

The two chatted while walking, and soon arrived at the residence arranged by the Shen family for the distinguished guests.

"You have traveled a long distance, take a good rest today, there will be a fireworks display in the evening, I will ask Yaoyao to pick you up."

Pei Xiao and Shen Yao are college classmates, and their relationship is even closer.

Pei Xiao nodded his thanks: "I'm sorry to trouble you, that..."

"Ok?"

"...It's nothing." After a pause, he added, "We'll talk tonight."

Seeing that Shen Bai was about to leave, he agonized over the question in his heart for a long time, but he still couldn't ask it out after all.

……

After resting for two hours at noon, before Shen Yao came to pick him up, Pei Xiao went out alone - he was very familiar with the Xiling base, and he didn't want to bother others right now, and planned to go outside by himself.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there is a fireworks display at the Xiling Base.The street is very lively, and small vendors have already started to set up stalls in the square.

Standing on the side of the road, Pei Xiao watched the children run past with cotton candy in their hands, letting out a series of playful laughter.

There was harmony—as if the catastrophe had been but a dream.

"uncle."

While contemplating, someone pulled his sleeve lightly, and Pei Xiao lowered his head.

Pulling his sleeve was a little girl who looked four or five years old, with two braids and a Tang suit. When she looked up at him, her beautiful peach eyes were as clear and bright as black agate.

"Uncle." When he looked at her, she shook his sleeves again and asked softly, "I want to eat cotton candy."

The child I met for the first time asked him to buy cotton candy... Pei Xiao was taken aback, squatted down, looked the little girl in the eye, and said softly, "My little friend, where are your parents?"

"Hush——" She put her finger on his lips, looked around like a thief, and whispered, "Mom and Dad don't allow me to eat candy. Mom said that it will cause tooth decay, and the teeth will fall out~"

With her white and tender little hands on her lips, Pei Xiao stepped back a little: Why is this child so familiar?Or have they met before?

"Uncle, I," the little girl smiled sweetly, coquettishly, "I want to eat cotton candy..."

Before she finished speaking, a figure rushed towards her in the distance.

The man moved very quickly, obviously aiming at the little girl, but Pei Xiao was not slow either - when the man reached out to grab the little girl, he picked up the child first and avoided the man's hand.

When the visitor failed to catch him, he stopped and said angrily, "Jiang Wanyou! You kidnapped someone to buy you cotton candy again!"

The little girl was held in Pei Xiao's arms, and made a grimace at the visitor, triumphantly: "The wind stops, you can't catch me, just a little~"

The wind stopped?Pei Xiao looked at the man opposite - oh, it was the guy who successfully transformed from a zombie to a human.

The person Feng Ting came to arrest, whose surname is Jiang?Pei Xiao stared blankly at the little girl in his arms—this child...

"Jiang Wanyou, don't be complacent. I'll tell Jiang Ran later that you ate cotton candy again today!"

Feng Ting's words confirmed Pei Xiao's guess.

This child really belonged to Jiang Ran and Si Xu...

"You're talking nonsense! I haven't eaten yet!" The little girl protested, shaking her fist. "The wind stops, I have witnesses! I haven't eaten yet!"

She looked at him, aggrieved: "Uncle, you have to prove for me that I haven't eaten marshmallow yet."

The tangled point for children is that they haven't eaten candy yet.

The corners of Pei Xiao's mouth twitched, and he bent over to put the child on the ground.

"Your name is Jiang Random?" This name is quite similar to the naming style of those two people.

"Yeah." The child looked up at him, "Hello, Uncle, you are Jiang Shuran, Jiang He's Jiang, Shuran Shuran."

The little girl was cute when she introduced herself well - just like her mother.

However, grabbing a stranger and asking him to buy cotton candy is not like what Jiang Ransixu would have taught her.

He was silent, she insisted on looking up at him, blinking her peachy eyes, seriously: "I know you, you are Uncle Pei Xiao——Mom showed me your photo."

The child's eyes were pure and flawless, Pei Xiao was surprised, with a gentle smile in his eyes: "Your mother...why did you show me my picture?"

"Mom said, you are my father's relatives, and also my relatives." Jiang Yiran was serious, "Mom also said that you and your father seem to have a bad relationship on the surface, but in fact they are in love and kill each other. They are people who care about each other."

Pei Xiao: "..." Is that how Jiang Ran commented on him?

The man smiled wryly.

Taking advantage of the gap between his daze, Feng Ting jumped up, grabbed Jiang casually and was about to leave.

"Let you run again! Come back with me!"

"Go back, go back, who is afraid of you!" The child kicked his legs, bluffing, "The wind stops, you remember, I haven't eaten cotton candy today, you are not allowed to complain to my mother!"

"..."

After being caught under the arm of the man, she walked a certain distance, and she turned her head and waved to him: "Uncle Pei Xiao, let's watch the fireworks together at night!"
