The ancestors of Xuanmen stayed in the boss's room and didn't leave

After Tong Li left the company, she didn't go back to Jing's house, but went to the medicine hall that Qu Rui mentioned before.

She wants to ask some questions.

Qu Rui happened to be in the store, and when he saw Tong Li coming to him, he couldn't contain his excitement.

"Tong Li, you're here." He couldn't hide his excitement in his tone. After looking forward to it for a few days, he finally got someone to come.

"Yeah." Tong Li looked him back and forth a few times, and hummed softly, unable to tell whether she was in a good or bad mood.

"I have something to ask you."

Qu Rui looked at her with a smile, all kinds of warmth came to his head, no matter what happened, he nodded first.

The two then found a restaurant, ordered some snacks, and sat face to face.

Tong Li didn't look at the dishes on the table, but stared closely at his eyes. Her indifferent gaze created a great sense of oppression on the other party.

"What's the relationship between Pei Jiuyin and me?"

"..."

Tong Li's question was caught off guard, and the air stagnated for a moment, and the flowers decorated on the table clicked, and a petal fell off.

The smile on Qu Rui's face disappeared completely, his complexion turned pale slightly, and the muscles on his body tensed up unconsciously, probably because of guilty conscience, he slightly dodged Tong Li's eyes.

"Why can't you say it?" Tong Li's expression was still very indifferent, and he naturally observed that his reaction was not right.

She didn't know who Qu Rui was, but as a good friend between the two of them, she should be very clear about what happened between her and Pei Jiuyin, so why didn't he ever mention them to Pei Jiuyin?

This man has big problems.

"you……"

Qu Rui was silent for a long time, his expression became more and more uncomfortable, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Did you hear something?"

"En." Tong Li didn't talk much, but this word was very important.

Qu Rui clenched his fists and stabilized his mind. He didn't know how much Tong Li knew, but he must know something if he could come and ask him.

After all, can paper wrap the fire?

Should I say it?
He hesitated.

If this matter came out of his mouth, it would be a violation of the agreement between him and Mr. Pei, and the consequences were not something he could bear. If he didn't say it, he would be sorry for his two good friends.

What's more, with Tong Li's temperament, he knows that this matter is suspicious, and he will definitely not give up unless he investigates it clearly. The real truth will still surface in the end.

Qu Rui was caught in a dilemma for a while, it was wrong for him to say or not to say.

He glanced at the passing vehicles on the street, thought about it, and then smiled self-deprecatingly.

During this period of time, he was tortured for this secret, and he lived under the condemnation of his conscience every day. It can be said that life is worse than death.

He kept saying that he was their good friend, but he separated their accomplices for his own self-interest.

Maybe it's too late to tell the truth, but it's better than nothing.

After figuring it out, Qu Rui felt a big stone drop from his heart. He sighed heavily, looked directly at her with firm eyes, and said slowly, "You used to be a very happy couple."

Qu Rui's eyes dimmed slightly, and he began to fall into memories, describing their daily relationship with each other word by word.

In fact, he didn't know much, but Pei Jiuyin often chatted with him a few words, and his ability to imagine something from superficial words.

The two of them didn't know each other for a long time, and they didn't spend much time together, but the feeling they gave him was that you fell in love with me, and I fell in love with you.

Pei Jiuyin's love for Tong Li transcends everything. You must know that he is a high-ranking and wealthy son who can't find any woman, but he breaks his bottom line again and again, just to be able to get along with Tong Li. Li together.

He is very fortunate that he can see his brother in his lifetime, learn how to love someone, and he is also grateful that there is someone who loves his good brother.

But the world is too unfair to them, let them suffer so much.

"Why?" Tong Li didn't quite understand, if the two of them really loved each other, why...

Qu Rui frowned and looked at her, pondered for a while before saying: "I heard it's because..."

"Because you can't have children."

This is nothing to ordinary people, but it is indeed a capital offense to the Pei family.

The three generations of the Pei family are single-handed, and there is a huge family to inherit. They will never let the bloodline be cut off in Pei Jiuyin's generation.

"Child!" After Tong Li heard this sentence, a crack appeared on his face, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Indeed, for ascetics, children are an unattainable opportunity, especially the higher the level of cultivation, the lower the chance of having children, which is almost impossible for her.

if so……

Tong Li's eyes dimmed a little.

No, has she talked to that man about the child?

Qu Rui continued: "So Mr. Pei has spoken in the circle, and no one should tell Pei Jiuyin what happened between you two."

"He wants to take advantage of this gap to choose a suitable woman for Jiuyin..." Qu Rui thought of what his sister had done, and he had no face to say the rest.

"I'm sorry, I should have told you these things as soon as possible."

Tong Li kept a cold face and said nothing, not knowing what she was thinking.

Seeing her like this, Qu Rui felt even more heavy in his heart, moved his mouth, wanted to speak but didn't know what to say.

And Tong Li began to sort out this clue. It was nothing more than the love affair between her and Pei Jiuyin. Because she couldn't have children, she was opposed by her elders.

But: "What's the matter with Pei Jiuyin's amnesia?"

Qu Rui frowned and pursed his lower lip lightly, as if he was suffering a lot in his heart.

The biggest culprit here is his sister. Tong Li is okay with friends, basically ignores strangers, and is afraid of enemies... .

Seeing his perplexed face, Tong Li asked, "What? Is it convenient to say?"

Qu Rui shook his head with stiff neck: "No."

Forget it.

"I only know what medicine my sister took back from Jing Beichen. After they gave Jiuyin to drink it, he forgot some things."

"Especially you."

Qu Rui lowered his head and didn't dare to look at her. He felt ashamed for his sister to do such a thing.

"Your sister?" Tong Li's expression changed several times.

"Ok!"

"she……"

Qu Rui was a little embarrassed to say: "Because she also likes Jiu Yin, the two of them grew up together, my sister's obsession with Jiu Yin is too deep, and her thoughts can't be slowed down, so she does some wrong things."

Tong Li snorted coldly, and the girl she saw in Pei Jiuyin's room that day came to mind: "So she will do whatever she can to get Pei Jiuyin?"

Qu Rui's head was as heavy as a thousand catties, and he couldn't even lift it up. He didn't even have the courage to continue talking.

"sorry."

He didn't know what else to say other than sorry.

Tong Li stood up, her eyes fell on the top of Qu Rui's hair: "I see."

She got what she wanted to know and didn't want to stay any longer.

When she passed by Qu Rui, Qu Rui said something.
