Chapter 363: Young Master Jun is Troubled

fierce effort, Qiao Bao'er winced in pain as a bright red line of blood slid across her pale neck, strikingly visible.Gu Ruyi looked at them, her heart pounding in fear. She stammered, "Ye Wei, we'll...The scene suddenly became very awkward.

Qiao Bao'er treated Jun Zhimu as a stranger. She turned away and left with a sullen face.

Mrs. Pei gestured for Xiao Zhu to change his clothes and go out to see what was happening with Qiao Baoer.

Pei Haoran smiled helplessly, he was more than just angry.

A long day had passed, and night was falling. The Flaming Bar at midnight was bustling with activity. The upbeat music pulsed as handsome men and beautiful women danced wildly in the center of the floor. This place was where you could let loose all the stress you built up during the day.

"Thought you were on the top floor."

Pei Haoran had changed into casual clothes. The manager of the bar led him to the bustling bar counter where Jun Zhimu was sitting alone, drinking.

Generally speaking, Jun Zhimu doesn't much care for going to the bar lounge. As the sole proprietor of Firelight, he prefers the spacious and quiet ambiance of the top floor.

"It's too quiet upstairs."

Junzhi Mu took a half-glass of brandy, raised it to his lips and drank it down in one gulp.

Pei Haoran saw that he was in a bad mood and raised his eyes to signal the manager to drive some people away from the area, lest someone ignorant of the situation come over to disturb them.

Of all the brothers they knew, Lu Qinan was the most talkative and best at warming up the atmosphere. However, today, Master Lu seemed unwilling to come over.

Lu Qinnan recently has a lot of opinions about Jun Zhi牧.

Pei Haoran, the most rational among them, could only sigh helplessly at this time, "Zhi Mu, I also think you're being a bit too much by using the child to deceive her."

"If you're really worried, just have someone watch over you secretly. There's no need to go this far..."

"Is there a need"

Jun Zhimu looked at him with a glance and said softly, “ Qiao Wenyu and Gu Ruyue have always been hostile to the Jun family. She relies heavily on Gu Ruyue, and she has Tang Yu by her side since she was a child…”

The bartender poured him another half-glass of brandy. Jun Zhi Mu's eyes were cold as he stared at the liquor in his hand, "If she wants a child, she has to go back to the Jun family."

The child became his trump card.

Pei Haoran understood his methods of handling things, but this time he always felt that he was being too forceful and too stubborn.

Threatening Qiao Baoer with the child will make her hate him.

Once a crack appears in the relationship between two people, it may be impossible to repair forever.

This approach is very irrational.

In fact, Jun Zhi Mu wouldn't tell anyone because he was actually afraid of losing.

Jun Zhi Mu drank the remaining half cup of brandy, after a long silence, he whispered to himself, "If I could choose again, I would still do the same."

Pei Haoran looked at him for a while, feeling that he was actually in a very conflicted state of mind.

The bartender served Pei Haoran a glass of strange juice. There was no way around it; recently, Zhu Xiaowei had been very strict and always worried about him getting sick from stomach problems. Sometimes, having someone looking after you can be quite blissful.

Pei Haoran took a sip of the sweet and sour juice, watching Jun Zhimu drink one cup after another beside him, looking very agitated.

As a brother, or should I say something to comfort him.

It's even necessary to comfort the Shepherd of Jun.

Pei Haoran thought about it for a moment and found it very funny, almost something to experience in a lifetime.

Jun Zhimu turned his head and saw him smiling inexplicably, his mood extremely bad. "Pei Haoran, did you come to the bar just to drink juice"

Pei Haoran smiled and agreed, "My wife said I have a stomach problem and I'm only allowed to drink juice."

Flaunting their affection openly.

"Oh." Junzhi Mu's face darkened further, responding with a deep and meaningful "oh."

Of course Pei Haoran didn't want to anger him, lest he be punished with a drinking penalty. He quickly smiled and comforted him, "Zhi Mu, you don't have to worry so much. We all know Qiao Bao'er's personality. She doesn't hold grudges. After a while, she'll get over it. She has a really good temper."

Is Qiao Bao'er nice

Upon hearing this, Junzhi Mu suddenly burst into laughter.

Although no one came near them, all the women around looked at Jun Zhi Mu. Pei Haoran also felt that his brother was too hard to approach on a usual day. Jun Zhi Mu's attitude towards people was always strict and cold. He chuckled, and it was really charming.

Many noblewomen admired him, but in fact, this grandson of the Jun family did not have many women he came into contact with.

Junzhi Mu had a strange quirk from childhood: he disliked women.

In work relationships, most women accepted are treated as subordinates to be commanded and scolded, with no regard for gender distinction.

Pei Haoran sipped the strange juice in his hand, and he had a feeling that Jun Zhimu seemed to lose his confidence whenever he met Qiao Bao'er.

"Zhimu, you should have more faith in her," Pei Haoran said, rare opportunity to educate him, "In a marriage, trust is very important for couples."

Jun Zhi Mu's brow furrowed immediately, as if he were seriously considering the question.

Pei Haoran saw his expression and immediately became interested, curiously asking, "Zhi Mu, has Qiao Baoer ever told you that she loves you"

Upon hearing this, Jun Zhi Mu's expression grew even more solemn.

Pei Haoran couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing, "Hahaha…"

He bet that Qiao Baoer definitely didn't say it.m, leaving him feeling guilty. The old man had been staying at Beiyuan and hadn't ventured out much. He even started practicing Buddhism by fasting and meditating.As Gu Ruqing, the guest's relative, h...
