The next morning, when Pei Shaoze woke up, a system prompt flashed through his mind.
[Plot mission: Bring Cheng Xia home for the Chinese New Year, yes/no].
He frowned and asked, "let me take Cheng Xia home for the New Year, what do you mean?"
The system explained: "The system only releases tasks according to time. Originally, you marked Cheng Xia in the first step, and Cheng Xia is your lover. At this time, you should take him back to see his parents during the Chinese New Year. Because of you The novice mission has not been completed, and the plot has gone wrong. If this mission is not completed, the player points will be deducted again.”
Pei Shaoze: "How much?"
System: "This task is 10 points."
Pei Shaoze: "Oh. Buckle it."
system:"… "
The system seems to have expected his answer. Anyway, Pei Shaoze has always ignored the system's notice. It is obviously a love script that cultivates feelings after occupying the protagonist.
System: "Friendly reminder, your player points are only 35 left."
Pei Shaoze asked indifferently: "I was asked to see Lin Qianshu in the previous plot task, but I was deducted 5 points for not going there. I saw it last night, can the 5 points be added back?"
The system struggled for a moment before whispering: "The task doesn't have a strict completion time, it seems that it can be added back."
With a "ding" in his head, the player's points returned to 40.
As long as the task points are not deducted into 0 points, it will be fine. Pei Shaoze continued to ignore the system tasks, got up and got dressed. Just after taking a shower, she received a call from her mother, Lu Manjing. The woman asked softly, "Shaoze, it's New Year's Eve today. Mom has prepared your favorite dumplings. Are you coming back for New Year's Eve dinner?"
Pei Shaoze: "Okay, I'll go home now."
On New Year's Eve, he really should go back to celebrate the New Year with his family in this world. As for bringing Cheng Xia... On such an important day as the Spring Festival, he has no reason to bring the company's entertainers to his home, not to mention that Cheng Xia also has to accompany his parents.
As the system said, since the plot has completely gone astray, let's keep going. He doesn't like being forced to do things, and he will personally control the plot of this world.
Pei Shaoze gave the driver a holiday and drove back in person.
When he parked the car in the garage, he saw a very cool red sports car parked next to him. He didn't know who it belonged to. Pei Shaoze opened the door with doubts and saw an 18-year-old boy playing games on the sofa.
The teenager's hair was dyed red, and he used a lot of hairspray, and his hair almost rose into the sky. He wore a row of diamond stud earrings on his ears, which gleamed in the light. There is a heater at home, and he only wears short sleeves, with a huge brand LOGO printed on his chest, and a silver skull metal chain hanging around his neck.
Pei Shaoze's face sank - this non-mainstream, middle-aged and second-ill dress looks like Pei Shaoze's younger brother in the original book.
The original book did not describe much about his younger brother, but only said that he was studying in a third-rate university, his grades were terrible, and he was drinking, clubbing and playing games with a group of friends and friends every day. With such a pair of sloppy sons, it is no wonder that at the end of the original, Mr. Pei's condition deteriorated and he died with hatred.
Pei Shaoze took off his coat and hung it at the entrance. He changed a pair of slippers and walked into the living room. He said casually, "Pei Shaoyan, how many subjects did you fail in this final exam?"
Pei Shaoyan, who was playing a game, stared at the TV screen and replied casually, "Just five or six subjects."
Pei Shaoze walked in front of him, blocking his view, and said coldly, "If you fail the class again, you will be dismissed from the school."
Pei Shaoyan, who was blocked, rolled his eyes, threw the handle on the sofa, raised his eyebrows, and said with disdain, "Aren't you the same as me? Back then, you couldn't even pass the three exams, and you were sent abroad by your father. At least three more exams!"
In the past, Pei Shaoze was indeed unsatisfactory, but now that he has changed, he will not allow his younger brother to be such a waste. Pei Shaoze got up and tore Pei Shaoyan's back collar: "Come with me."
Although Pei Shaoyan is also an Alpha, he is only 18 years old after all, and his strength is incomparable to that of his adult brother.
Pei Shaoze pressed him to the side of the bed and sat down, folded his arms around his chest, and said coldly, "Since you don't like to study, you will definitely be dismissed by the school if you fail so many subjects, so it's useless to get these three diplomas. After the Spring Festival, just follow me and be my assistant and learn how to manage the company. I will stop your credit card and pay you salary every month based on your performance.”
Pei Shaoyan widened his eyes: "W-what?!"
"Is that red sports car in the garage yours? I'll confiscate the car keys first." Pei Shaoze picked up a bunch of keys from the table, took out a few credit cards from his brother's wallet, and stuffed them all into his pocket .
Seeing him coming, Pei Shaoyan immediately jumped up from the bed: "Damn, why do you care about me! My parents don't care about me..."
Pei Shaoze interrupted him sharply: "Parents don't care about you, why do you think it is?! It's because they are completely disappointed with you and have a chill! Do you think it's something to be proud of when your parents have a chill with you, don't you?"
The man's eyes were as sharp as a sword, almost piercing holes in his brother's body. Pei Shaoyan was stared at by his cold eyes, and a chill went down his spine.
The elder brother's question was too sharp, and Pei Shaoyan was stunned, not knowing how to refute.
Pei Shaoze stared into his eyes and said word by word, "Pei Shaoyan, father is getting older and his health is getting worse and worse. Have you ever imagined that one day the Pei family will no longer be as beautiful as before, without his father's protection. , can you still be so arrogant? You are already 18 years old, so you should be sensible! You will come to work in the company after the Spring Festival, and there is no discussion."
He left this sentence and turned to go out, leaving only a cold back to his brother.
Pei Shaoyan: "???"
The younger brother, who was inexplicably disciplined, had a blank expression on his face.
Pei Shaoze sat in the dining room, poured a glass of water and drank it calmly, suppressing his anger.
The brothers of the Pei family in the original book were really muddy and could not support the wall. In the end, the Pei family lost their way, the company was seized by the vice president Cui, Pei Shaoze was stabbed to death by Cheng Xia, and the younger brother Pei Shaoyan had no good ending. Five years later, Pei Shaoyan was coaxed by the people arranged by Vice President Cui to bet on stocks and lost his fortune. He was even lured into drug addiction by those gang of friends and friends, and he died suddenly from overdose!
Although the current younger brother is stubborn, he still has time to tune-in.
Pei Shaoze didn't believe it. He couldn't take care of an 18-year-old middle school boy
Pei Shaoyan, who was in a daze in the study, didn't know what his elder brother was thinking. He thought that the elder brother was in a bad mood today and took anger at him. After recovering, Pei Shaoyan immediately came to the restaurant, ran to Pei Shaoze and sat down with a flattering smile: "Brother, who offended you? I asked some of my buddies to beat him up! My card... "
"I'll keep it for you." Pei Shaoze frowned and glanced at his brother's messy red hair, "I went to the barber shop with me after lunch to dye your ugly hair back. Also, I took off the earrings, it's too ugly. "
Pei Shaoyan shouted, "Do you understand fashion?"
Pei Shaoyan's voice involuntarily weakened after being stared at coldly by his brother: "If you have something to discuss..."
At this time, Lu Manjing just came out of the kitchen, and saw her two sons talking in the restaurant, she had a gentle smile on her face: "Shaoze is back, your dad is here, I'll go make dumplings for you first, and there will be a good year in the evening. For dinner at night, my mother will cook for you today."
Pei Shaoyan immediately went to his mother's side to act like a spoiled child, trying to put pressure on Pei Shaoze through his mother. Pei Shaoze saw through his careful thoughts, turned around to welcome his father into the door, and whispered, "Dad, I have something to tell you."
Pei Sheng now finds it pleasing to the eye when he sees what Pei Shaoze thinks. There have been many rumors in the company that "President Pei has become a workaholic" recently, and his son is willing to work hard. He is really gratified to be a father. So, when Pei Shaoze said he had something to talk to him, Pei Sheng agreed immediately and took his son to the study upstairs.
Pei Shaoze's words were simple and straightforward: "I want to stop all of Shaoyan's credit cards, and I will pay for his living expenses in the future. Parents don't give him pocket money in private. Also, let him come to the company to be my assistant after the Spring Festival. It doesn't matter if he doesn't go to that third-rate school, anyway, he hasn't passed a class since he went to college."
Pei Sheng was stunned for a while, but he didn't expect that Pei Shaoze would discipline his younger brother. In the past, the brothers used to cover each other and often went out to play together. He was dying of a headache. Now that the eldest son has gotten better and is still willing to take care of the younger son, Pei Sheng is so happy: "Okay, this is a good idea, this stinky boy Shaoyan has been spoiled by your mother, so he should take care of it!"
During lunch, Pei Shaoze announced the decision.
Pei Shaoyan looked at his mother with a painful expression: "Mom, brother, he's in a bad mood, he can't be angry with me! How can I not go to school? It's like being an assistant for him!"
Just as Lu Manjing was about to speak, Pei Shaoze looked at her and said solemnly: "Mom, do you want Shaoyan to live a life of nothing like this? He is 18 years old, and you will only harm him if you spoil him again! Going to school? One semester Failing five or six subjects, and hanging out with friends and friends every day, is this called going to school?"
Lu Manjing frowned tangled, and when she met Pei Shaoze's sharp eyes, her heart trembled, and she could only whisper, "Shaoyan, your brother is right, you can listen to your brother."
"..." Pei Shaoyan had a lifeless expression on his face.
After lunch, Pei Shaoze took his younger brother to a nearby barber shop, and said to the barber, "Dye his weeds back to black, and repair it by the way." Then he sat on the sofa next to him and put on a pair of " I watch you cut" gesture.
Pei Shaoyan was about to cry.
Seeing the barber coming over with scissors behind him, the young man closed his eyes as if dead...
An hour later, Pei Shaoyan's red hair was dyed black, his hairstyle was trimmed into crisp short pieces, and his ear studs were also removed. The young man in the mirror has handsome facial features and looks quite handsome. Pei Shaoze nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, this is like a person."
Pei Shaoyan was depressed: "Brother, this hairstyle is really ugly, I will be laughed at!"
Pei Shaoze glanced at him: "It doesn't matter, you won't be able to see your friends who laugh at you in the future."
Pei Shaoyan: "???"
No, I'm going to lose my personal freedom? !
Pei Shaoze took his younger brother home. The parents saw the young son who was cleaned up and felt that Pei Shaoze's approach was very effective. Pei Sheng fully supported it and promised that he would not give Pei Shaoyan a penny of pocket money in private in the future. Pei Shaoze acted resolutely and called the bank on the spot to stop all his brother's credit cards. The younger brother stood behind him with a face full of tears.
Until the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, the younger brother hadn't recovered his senses, his head was drooping, and he had an aggrieved expression of "I don't want to live anymore", but Pei Shaoze was in a happy mood. He turned on his mobile phone and found that there were a lot of New Year wishes in WeChat. Almost all the managers and artists of the company's C group had sent messages, and the phone was about to be overwhelmed with blessings.
He flipped his fingers down and slid for a long time before he turned to the chat record with Cheng Xia.
The record stopped last night on the topic of pastry. Strangely, Cheng Xia didn't send holiday wishes? What are you busy with
Pei Shaoze put Cheng Xia's chat history at the top, so that it would be easier to find in the future.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the family of four gathered around the table. This New Year's Eve dinner was quite warm. The meal prepared by my mother was very rich. After the meal, everyone sat in the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Although the original novel is an overhead ABO world, the novel comes from life, like the Spring Festival, Valentine's Day, etc., the people in the novel will also live in the same way. It's just that the Spring Festival Gala in this world doesn't have those sketch songs and dances that Pei Shaoze is familiar with. All the stars from the book world appear on TV. Among them, there are two signed artists of Tianxuan, both of whom are under Vice President Cui.
Pei Shaoze saw it dully, and simply took out his mobile phone and sent a message of blessing to Director Liu, screenwriter Xu and the author Lemongrass.
When it was almost early morning, the younger brother, who had slowed down, ran to the yard to set off fireworks, and Pei Shaoze walked to the window and looked out.
With the countdown of "5, 4, 3, 2, 1" on the TV, countless gorgeous fireworks suddenly burst out of the window. Fireworks are not prohibited in Rongcheng City, and the vast night sky is instantly occupied by colorful fireworks, which is much more lively than the city in his original world.
At this moment, the mobile phone suddenly "ding", and a WeChat message popped up.
Pei Shaoze picked it up and took a look.
"I wish Mr. Pei and his family a happy New Year and all the best! In the new year, everything goes smoothly!" There was also a New Year's red envelope with the words "Good luck" on the back.
A smile flashed across Pei Shaoze's eyes.
The fireworks outside the window are brilliant, and the deafening sound of firecrackers can be heard. The atmosphere of the festival is very strong. Today I received a lot of blessing WeChat-letters, but when Cheng Xia's blessing arrived, Pei Shaoze felt that this year was a complete success.
While sending blessings at zero o'clock, Cheng Xia's approach to details always warms Pei Shaoze's heart. He typed back: "I also wish you and your family a happy new year, and your wishes come true."
Cheng Xia gave him 66.66 yuan, and he sent a red envelope to Cheng Xia, and stuffed it back with 88.88 yuan as a courtesy.
Cheng Xia received the red envelope and sent a "Thank you boss" emoji, and joked: "Mr. Pei, this number is so lucky! Does it mean to wish me a big fortune in the New Year?"
Pei Shaoze: "Well, in the new year, I wish you a successful career and a lot of money."
Cheng Xia didn't mention how happy she was, and sent President Pei a "Thank you boss" emoji package.
The bells echoed over the city, and the new year officially began.
