"Brother Pei, why don't you join me? I'm not afraid!"
Liang Yunfei blurted out on impulse.
Pei Wen doubted, "You?"
"What can you do?"
Since it was already said, Liang Yunfei didn't dwell on it and continued speaking to Pei Wen.
"Start a company, what does the content matter?"
"It's what I learned in the library before."
She would discuss any future matters with Xiao Xi.
"It's not that I look down on you, after all, I don't have that ability myself yet."
"But you don't seem like you're from this major. You look like a novice who doesn't understand anything."
"Even if you do, it's just superficial."
Pei Wen's words instantly left Liang Yunfei speechless.
It wasn't for any other reason than that he was speaking the truth.
She had been ambitious at first, but after a month of engagement, she found that everything was not as simple as she had imagined.
In short, every hurdle was harder to overcome than the last.
Pei Wen understood. This girl had been reading books on management and various studies in the library, a very mixed bag.
Just based on the points she couldn't articulate, it was destined that her path would be difficult.
"You're right about everything, but none of that matters to me because I have a partner."
"My partner is no ordinary person. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have wanted to do this, because I know my own level."
After being stunned for a while, Liang Yunfei's spirits immediately lifted.
After all, she trusted Xiao Xi. In all the time she had known her, she hadn't seen anything Xiao Xi couldn't accomplish.
Coupled with Uncle Shen's help, she was even less afraid.
People grow gradually; she could wait, and she would see it through!
"These are just your rose-tinted glasses. You're so young; you should focus on your studies."
"The future is very bright!"
Although I might not see it, you can...
"Everything you're saying is nonsense, we already know."
Seeing Pei Wen in such a state, his two brothers finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Aren't they being foolish for not trying to break out of this?
Or has reading books for so many years made their brains go haywire?
"Xiao Ting, Xiao Yun, you two, say less."
Although Liang Yunfei didn't think highly of him either, she could understand.
If he could get through this, it would just be a low point in his life; if he couldn't, it might be his burial ground.
"..."
Although the two brothers were very angry, they obediently shut their mouths.
They were afraid that if they couldn't hold back, they would directly beat him to wake him up.
"I won't force you. Here's a contact number. If you change your mind, you can call her."
Liang Yunfei felt that she had nothing more to say.
So she simply wrote down Xiao Xi's contact information and handed it to Pei Wen.
Pei Wen didn't say anything and took the slip of paper.
"Think about it carefully yourself. I'm sure you, a well-read person, understand the principle of 'those who are close grieve and those who are distant rejoice.'"
"I've said all I can."
With that, Liang Yunfei pulled her two younger cousins and prepared to leave.
"Sister Yi, I'll be leaving for today. Let's chat again another day."
Zhou Yi smiled faintly, "You're welcome~"
As soon as they stepped out of the coffee shop, the brothers couldn't help themselves. "Sister! Are we just leaving?"
"What else?"
"What about that fool inside?"
"..."
As soon as Xiao Yuting finished speaking, he was hit.
"What fool! He's much smarter than you!"
"Hmph!"
"I think my brother is right, who else could be a fool if not him!"
"He's not even as insightful as the two of us!"
"..."
"You two are quite good at praising yourselves!"
"But we came today precisely to figure out why so many coincidences are happening to me, and whether this person has ulterior motives."
"But now it's very clear that in the library, he was just responding subconsciously to my casual remarks, and as for anything else, it's just that what I've been learning recently is his specialty."
Although it seemed a bit coincidental, there was indeed no danger.
"Sister, can we go back now?"
The mission outside was completed, can they not go to the library anymore?
Thinking this, her mood improved considerably!
"Hmm... let me think about it again..."
Liang Yunfei drew out the sound, making the two brothers' hearts jump into their throats.
Finally, she heard a "Okay."
Immediately, the two of them beamed, ready to go back and play!
Liang Yunfei originally intended to return to the library, as she had only looked at a little bit when she arrived, and she had much more to see!
But considering she had given away Xiao Xi's contact information again, she might as well go back and give Xiao Xi a heads-up...
She had spoken impulsively earlier, and looking back, there were many inappropriate points.
So she had to hurry back and explain this matter to Xiao Xi, so she could be prepared.
Although she wasn't sure if that guy Pei Wen would call, she had done what she did, and she had to take responsibility for the follow-up.
So in a hurry, Liang Yunfei pulled her two younger cousins home.
...
Coffee shop.
After Liang Yunfei left, Zhou Yi looked at Pei Wen for a long time before finally leaving a word.
"Crawling at someone's feet does not necessarily pave a smooth path."
Do not advise kindness without experiencing another's hardship; even if you have experienced another's hardship, it does not mean you are necessarily kind.
Zhou Yi had witnessed it firsthand, so she greatly admired Pei Wen for reaching this point. At least he was still alive and had left a glimmer of hope for his family.
"Just stay alive!"
Shaking the thoughts from her head, Zhou Yi said this with a smile again before turning to leave.
Pei Wen was left alone, sitting there blankly, thinking about something, and stared at a piece of paper for an entire day.
It wasn't until the coffee shop was about to close that he was called away by the waiter.
Honestly, if he wasn't the owner, they would have asked him to leave long ago.
His sitting there was really affecting the shop's business.
Pei Wen was like a wandering soul now, ignoring the waiter's disdainful gaze.
As soon as someone spoke, he immediately stood up and staggered out.
He looked like he had drunk fake wine, not at all like a normal person.
After walking for an unknown distance, he stopped, looked at the paper in his hand again, and then tore it back and forth with both hands.
Finally, at the entrance of a gloomy alley, only a pile of small paper scraps and a lonely receding figure remained.
