Chapter 365 - 365 He’s In Love
Pei Huai ate a simple meal. While waiting for Su Ji, he took out a book and read it seriously.
His expression and posture were calm. The waiters around him passed by several times, but no one dared to look at the book he was reading. When they saw him reading, they assumed that he was reading an academic book.
Even Su Ji thought so. When they were almost done eating, she took a curious look and almost choked on the soup.
!!
Pei Huai frowned, put down his book and patted her back.
After Su Ji recovered, she pointed at the book with a rare look of surprise, “you…”
Pei Huai was not reading any academic textbook. It was the erotic book that he took from her!
His face was too calm, and no one suspected anything even though he was reading it openly.
How could someone read that kind of book without blushing?
Pei Huai followed her line of sight and picked up the book. His voice was still steady as he said, “oh, I was reading the part about Prince Huai and the devil concubine in the military camp. It was quite interesting.”
That was the only part of the book that was innocent.
Su Ji looked at the page. He was right. “Are you interested in history?”
Pei Huai furrowed his brows noncommittally.
Su Ji said, “why won’t you buy a proper history book? What’s being said there is very different from the real history.”
Pei Huai’s gaze fell on her. After a moment, he raised his eyebrows with interest, “and you know that.”
“….”
Su Ji retracted her gaze and continued to drink the remaining half of the soup.
For some reason, Pei Huai was particularly interested in the book recently. He felt that every character depicted in it was very vivid. Although he knew that the content was not real history, he was still interested.
After hearing what Su Ji said, he became even more interested.
He closed the book without a sound, and the X-rated cover was revealed.
Su Ji couldn’t be bothered anymore.
However, Pei Huai asked her, “you mentioned that you’re not you…”
Su Ji glanced at him. His slender fingers tapped on the book, “do you know who they are?”
Su Ji felt that it would not take long for him to figure out her true identity.
Even so, Su Ji was not worried. At most, she would just lay her cards on the table, and it would be easier for her to settle scores with him later.
She would not forgive him for digging up her grave.
“Have you ever heard of the saying…” Su Ji squinted her eyes, “curiosity killed the cat?”
After receiving her warning, Pei Huai pondered for a while and then changed the topic, “do you have any plans in the afternoon?”
Su Ji shook her head and continued drinking the soup.
Pei Huai smiled, “then come with me to pick up Xingxing.”
Su Ji paused. She seemed to know where they were going later.
“I heard that he’s been going there a lot recently?”
Pei Huai nodded.

The Lute Association and the Calligraphy Association used to be the two high-end places for rich middle-aged and elderly people in A City to hang out. However, because of Su Ji, the Calligraphy Association had a large influx of young people in the past few months.
It became fashionable all of a sudden.
On the other hand, the Lute Association still maintained its classical and old-fashioned vibe.
At this moment, people were gathered in groups of two or three, talking about lute-playing techniques.
On the central stage, there were also part-time university students hired to perform.
Most of the time, the members were minding their own business. Their performance was more like a background music that could enhance the atmosphere.
At this moment, the one performing on stage was a student from Kyokushin, Cao Zhuzhu.
She was playing a song that she had adapted herself, a song that used to belong to a girl group. She added some new elements, and the older members were not very happy with it.
As for the younger members…
At this moment, a loyal fan was sitting in front of her. He had been listening to her play for two hours without moving.
In the morning, he came with a few young masters. Later, those young masters could not stay awake listening to the music and were taken away by their nannies. In the end, he was the only one left.
Recently, he would come to the Lute Association whenever there was no class in kindergarten.
He was the first to listen to all her adapted songs. It was as if he was the only one in a small concert.
Cao Zhuzhu’s classmates teased her, saying that she had caught the attention of a big boss. Although he was still in kindergarten, he would eventually grow up.
After playing the last song, Cao Zhuzhu looked at her most loyal fan, “done~”
Pei Xingxing immediately changed his intoxicated expression and took out the tea that Su Ji gave him. He raised his two short arms and handed it to Cao Zhuzhu, “drink this!”
Cao Zhuzhu took it and took a big gulp. After singing for a few hours, the first thing she wanted to do was to drink water. She rubbed Pei Xingxing’s chubby little face and said, “why are you so cute?”
Pei Xingxing was in love. She called him a cutie!
Cao Zhuzhu held his little hand and led him out of the venue. He didn’t know why, but every time he was with her and listened to her play the lute, Pei Xingxing always felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
He hadn’t had this feeling for a long time.
...
He really liked the songs she played. His friends in kindergarten did not like them, but he listened with relish, as if he had heard those songs before…
She said that those were the songs of a girl group. However, she adapted their songs not because she liked them, but because the background music was produced by the lute, so it was easy to adapt.
Pei Xingxing’s memory was very good. He tried hard to recall, but his great-grandfather had never listened to this type of lute music. So where did he hear it before?
Could it be…
Pei Xingxing suddenly thought of the answer.
He must have heard of it in his previous life!
In his past life, she played it for him!
It was fate!
Cao Zhuzhu walked fast. She pulled Pei Xingxing and strode out of the door. However, when they were close to the door, she suddenly realized that the little boy was standing still.
He looked down and saw that he was looking behind him.
He seemed to have met an acquaintance.
...
Cao Zhuzhu also looked over.
There were three women there. She knew the older one, who had her face exposed. She was a very famous actress. The two people next to her were wearing masks, but they took off their masks at the same time. They were also celebrities…
