Do you want to hitch a ride?

  Only the person in front of him, with his hands in his pockets, under his straight eyebrows and a messy fringe, had a mischievous smile on his face. His two sword-like eyebrows rippled with waves, his eyes shone with a hint of laughter, and his curved eye corners were like the bright crescent moon in the night sky. His jade-like skin reflected the cherry blossom lips, and a dazzling starlight sparkled on his left ear, adding a touch of unruliness to his handsome appearance.

  Lin Pei stood frozen, a memory that had been wrapped in thick layers of fencing in her heart was suddenly struck by a galloping horse from afar, opening up a crack that gradually spread and cracked, revealing the crystal clear red crystal inside. A name lingered on her lips for a long time before she finally whispered it out: Jin... Ge!

  "Beauty, want to hitch a ride?"

  A magnetic, slightly hoarse voice came, as if the ancient bell rang, and the lingering sound spread through time and space, stirring up ripples that shook the memories deep in the soul.

  Those fragments buried deep in memory, the past's every detail, like frame after frame of vivid photographs, like unbridled wild horses, emerge one by one before my eyes.

  It wasn't that I didn't want to think about it, but rather I deliberately buried the thought deep within my heart and built a thick wall around it, not letting others see it, nor allowing myself to catch a glimpse of it unintentionally.

  Perhaps it was because of the departure of Qin Feng's family back then, the feeling of thinking but not getting was too painful. When Jin Ge was about to leave, Lin Pei Pei subconsciously sealed all those past memories and deliberately forgot them.

  If it's said that Qin Feng's feelings for Lin Pei Pei came from the deepest tremors of his soul, like an innate mark, then Jin Ge's feelings for Lin Pei Pei were even more substantial, containing the childhood dependence on Qin Feng, the innocent friendship of sitting together at the same table, and the naive emotions of youth. How could he not miss her, how could he possibly not miss her?

  Beauty, want to hitch a ride? This is what Jin Ge often said to Lin Peipei during a not-so-short period of time. I don't know what madness he had at that time, and I don't know where he found an old-fashioned Shanghai Phoenix bicycle, saying that he wanted to use this car to take Lin Peipei to and from school, and was indeed ridiculed by Zhao Shitou.

  "I say, bro, if you have a heart, don't go looking for a 'Little Run' or even a 'Little Flying Dove', where did you dig up this rusty, old 'Big Horizontal Bar'? Can the young lady bear to sit in the back of this car? Tsk! I can't even stand it."

  Jin Ge gave Zhao Shi Tou a "you don't understand" look, "It's precisely because he is rustic and old-fashioned that Pei Pei would deign to sit on it. If you were to fix up the whole 'Little Flying Dove', she would still look down on it and say it's 'pretentious'! Don't believe me? Let's try!"

  No kidding, Brother Jin knew Lin Peipei well. The young lady glared at the "big crossbeam", blinked her long eyelashes for a while, raised her head, and sat down on the rear rack with great momentum, wrapping her arms around Brother Jin's slender waist, shouting, "Little Golden Boy, let's go!"

  "Good!"

  Jin Ge easily stepped over the car beam with his tall stature of over 170 cm, and with a push of his two long legs, the "big crossbeam" swayed back and forth as it moved forward. But before they had gone far, Lin Pei Pei loudly shouted to stop, and before the car had even come to a complete halt, she had already jumped down. What's going on? Can this rear seat be sat on?! The small iron rod welded to the rear frame was not padded at all, and it made her butt hurt and her thighs go numb. Moreover, Lin Pei Pei was wearing a thin skirt as part of her school uniform, and after sitting for just a short while, she felt like her butt was burning with discomfort. If they were to sit like this all the way to school, her two legs wouldn't be able to walk anymore.

  Jin Ge scratched his head for half a day, thinking of a solution. He took off his school uniform and used it to pad the back rack of the car, letting Lin Peipei sit on it. They would arrive at school first and think of another way later after school was over.

  After school, Jin Ge asked Lin Pei to wait for him at the school gate. Half an hour later, that kid came back with a huff and puff, sweating profusely, riding his "big horizontal beam" bike, which had been modified with a cushioned saddle on the rear rack, making it more comfortable, except for the lack of footrests, it was an improved version of a tandem bike.

  At that time, Brother Jin would shout at Lin Peipei's door every morning: Beauty, do you want to hitch a ride?

  Years have passed, and now hearing this phrase again, Lin Peipei suddenly became the middle school girl with pigtails from back then, only that the awkward young man from back then has now become a handsome noble gentleman.

  Lin Pei Pei gazed at the person in front of her, joy overflowing from her eyes, the corners of her mouth slowly curling up, rising higher and higher, as if about to burst into a smile. Just when it was about to rise, there was a 180-degree turn: her eyebrows turned upside down, her smiling eyes widened, the corners of her mouth drooped, and her eyes gleamed with ferocity.

  "Ah! You little scamp knows how to come back! You little scamp still remembers to come back! You little scamp still remembers big sister me!"

  Bang, bang, bang, a flurry of punches and kicks, elbow strikes, leg sweeps, shoulder tackles, and palm slaps, a series of swift and deadly close-range attacks, each move as fast as lightning, as if Jin Ge had a deep grudge against her.

  Jin Ge didn't expect such a reaction when they met, and after subconsciously dodging twice, he stopped evading and let Lin Peipei's kicking feet and swinging fists land on his body, making loud slapping sounds.

  Lin Pei Pei beat him so satisfyingly, and her mouth kept spouting out words: "Let you be away for so long! Let you have no news at all! Let you forget about your sister me! Let you sneak back silently! Let you launch a surprise attack!"

  This guy is wrong if he doesn't come back and also wrong if he does. In short, he's just wrong! Wrong! Wrong! So let's keep beating him then.

  The leaves on the Passat were stunned to see this scene. Wasn't this young lady the green plum who grew up with the young master and had a good relationship? Wasn't she the one in the young master's heart? Wasn't she a gentle and virtuous girl? How could it be like this - so fierce! She was completely a barbaric girlfriend! Looking again, the young master was almost pressed to the ground and beaten. When had they ever seen the young master so flustered? What if he got hurt? The leaves couldn't sit still anymore, opened the car door and rushed down.

  The leaves rushed to the front of the two people who were tangled together, but then didn't know what to do. The young master hadn't said to help, and besides, she was a girl, so what could be done? Go up and pull her away? That wouldn't be good! Help him fight? Even more dare not! Not to mention that it was the young master's heartthrob, even if it were an ordinary person, one big man helping another big man would still be two big men bullying a girl. Where could he put his face? What to do? What to do?

  Yezi was entangled in the surrounding circle, while Lin Peipei was fighting happily. When she caught a glimpse of Yezi rushing up, her anger rose and her blows became even fiercer.

  "Oh no? You've even brought helpers! Let you bring helpers! Young master is ill!"

  The leaves saw the situation and became more anxious, and were pressed down by Jin Ge's drifting gaze, not daring to move, and could only turn around in circles, stiffly shouting in Chinese, "Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"

  Zhao Shi Tou, who was hiding not far away smoking, was still sneering at the scene of Jin Ge being beaten by Lin Pei Pei, thinking to himself, "It's good that they started fighting as soon as they met, it means Pei Pei still has Jin Ge in her heart." Although Jin Ge got hurt physically, he felt sweet and happy in his heart. If they had met politely, Jin Ge would have been sad instead. Seeing Ye Zi brothers rushing over, he quickly threw away his cigarette butt and ran over, scolding Ye Zi, "Brother, how can you be so blind? Can't you see your young master is being beaten happily? Why are you going to join in the fun and ruin your young master's excitement? You'll get scolded by him later!"

  "Hey, hey! Come on, let's go! Brother Ye, come on! Don't disturb the young master's fun... What's up, Pei Pei? Hit him harder, Jin Ge has thick skin. Hit him harder and we'll leave you two alone."

  "Halt! Where did you little scamp hide just now?"

  Lin Peipei was startled by Shi Tou and stopped in her tracks, turning around to call out to Zhao Shi Tou who was pulling on Ye Zi's arm, ready to leave.

  "Not hiding, just smoking there. We're leaving, you... keep fighting, keep on! Enjoy yourselves!"

  "Look! Even a very honest child has been spoiled by you! You're so glib!"

  Zhao Shitou's words amused Lin Peipei, who tilted her head and glanced at Jin Ge, who was now battered and bruised.

  "Hey! Hey! Ahh... Hmph..."

  Jin Ge saw Lin Pei Pei stop, only accompanying a smiling face, pulling the corners of his mouth open, shouting in pain. Lin Pei Pei heard him yelling and felt a little guilty and heartache, stepping forward to take a closer look at Jin Ge's bloody mouth corner, raising her eyes to see a pair of sparkling star-like eyes, and for an instant, she was stunned.

  Jin Ge took advantage of her daze to pull her into his arms, resting his head on her shoulder and whispering softly in her ear, "Pei Pei, I'm back!"

  Lin Pei stood quietly, her face pressed against Jin Ge's shoulder blade, the faint scent of Gucci cologne on his body mixed with a pine-like fragrance that wafted into her nostrils.

  Lin Pei felt as if she were standing in a vast, empty plain, and at the same time lying on a grassy meadow that stretched out like the sea. She was dizzy and floating, and it seemed as though time had stopped at this moment, leaving only the distant wind blowing over, rustling the clothes of the two people.

  Standing beside him, Zhao Shi Tou looked at the two people embracing each other, and suddenly felt a sour nose, moist eyes, and dared not look again. He turned his head to one side and gazed up at the lush tree tops by the roadside. The sunlight filtered through the dense leaves, like colorful ribbons, swirling around Jin Ge and Lin Pei Pei, as if in a dreamy trance.

  In the Lin family living room, Lin Peipei brought a pack of ice cubes to apply to Jin Ge's slightly swollen mouth corners. She looked at him with disdain as he hissed and drew in cold air, not lightening her grip one bit.

  "What's with the sneaky return? You little brat still remember me?"

  "Hmph... how could I forget! You're etched in my heart, even if I die, I'll still remember. This isn't me trying to surprise you or anything, heaven and earth as my witness, the moment I got off the plane, I rushed here to see you, this stone can be my proof!"

  "It's true, I can vouch for it! And this Brother Yezi can also vouch for it!"

  "How dare you! You knew and didn't report it, this account will be settled later. Alright, considering you came to find me as soon as you got off the plane, I'll let you off with just one less."

  "What's wrong with you?"

  "You're heartless!"

  Lin Pei peered at Zhao Shi Tou, walked to Ye Zi's front, "You are... Ye Zi?" Seeing him with a bewildered expression standing up looking at her, turning his head to look at Jin Ge, letting Jin Ge translate. Ye Zi understood, and respectfully nodded slightly.

  This language barrier is really troublesome, Lin Peipei scratched her head and thought to herself "I hope I don't have to draw a picture for my sister". After thinking for a moment, she said another sentence "Do you speak English?"

  This time Yeh Tzu didn't need translation and replied directly in English. Lin Pei Pei was delighted, good, she can speak English, this makes communication easier.

  "Are you Jin Ge... Young Master? Are you his follower?"

  "Yes."

  "Then he is my follower, what should you call me? And what should I call you?"

  "Big sister, you can call me A Ye or Dou Yezi."

  Lin Pei Pei was at a loss for words in response to Ye Zi's straightforward answer, and could only nod and invite him to sit down and have some water.

  "Brother Jin, you're quite interesting, where did you come from? You speak one word at a time, I like it!"

  "Huh? Do you like Yezi?" As soon as Lin Peipei said this, Jin Ge's gaze at Yezi changed. Yezi, who was sitting beside them and couldn't understand what they were saying, found it strange that Jin Ge was looking at him with an unusual gaze. "What did the young lady say to the young master? Why is the young master looking at me with such a weird gaze? I feel like there's a chill on the back of my head. Where did this wind come from in this room? This is really strange."

  At night, the Lin family returned home and were all startled by Jin Ge sitting in the living room. It was truly a surprise. Especially Lin Haotian, who took advantage of Lin Peipei going to the kitchen to help and pulled her aside to ask quietly, "I'm asking, little sister, your old love has come back, what about your new infatuation? Is this the rhythm of being laid off?"

  "What's new with old loves?"

  Lin Pei Pei's wording towards her own brother is quite strange.

  "Isn't the old love the one sitting in our living room now? And isn't the new love you, Brother Qin Feng? I'm your brother Qin Feng, are you ready to let him lose his job? Aren't you afraid that if I tell him, he'll immediately come back?"

  "Why don't you tell him to get out here immediately? It's been ages since he sent a single message, serves him right for being laid off!"

  Lin Pei pei gave Lin Hao Tian a cold glance, her tone very unpleasant.

  Lin Haotian heard that and his heart actually put down, it was blaming Qin Feng for not having any news for a long time, it seems like he's been lovesick. Haha, I was worried for nothing, my brother's charm is really great! No way, can't tell that kid, why let him be so happy, my sister will get angry, I won't say, just want to tell him my sister's old love is back, let him die of anxiety, die of anger! Hmm, that's what I'll do!

  At this time, Qin Feng, who was abroad, would have vomited three liters of blood if he had known Lin Haotian's thoughts. It wasn't that he didn't want to call or text Lin Peipei, but the situation was sudden and they were in a fully closed state, receiving their mission directly to go abroad and participate in a multi-country anti-terrorism exercise. They couldn't even make a call. There were dense satellite communication devices around them, but they could only watch, unable to use them, and could only scratch their heads anxiously. All he could do was wait, wait for the exercise to end, and then give Lin Peipei a good call. To be honest, he also missed Lin Peipei so much that it made his heart and lungs itch, suffering from lovesickness.

  After dinner, Wen Jia called and said that Jin Ge was back and wanted everyone to come out and gather together. He told us to eat well and then go to the Fengxuan Hotel, where a private room had already been booked.

  It was actually Wen Jia's older brother, Wen Bin, who knew that their business partner, the big boss of the Han family, had arrived in person, so he couldn't help but be nervous, fearing that he would be slow to react. He had originally planned to invite Jin Ge to dinner as a welcoming gesture, but the other party said they wanted to go to the Lin family's place first to report back, and everything else would be decided later by Lin Peipei.

  Wen Bin knew that Jin Ge and Lin Pei Pei's relationship was not shallow. When he went to H country to find Jin Ge, he also used Lin Pei Pei's name. His cooperation with the Korean company had something to do with Jin Ge looking out for Lin Pei Pei and Wen Jia's friendship. Anyway, doing business with anyone is just doing business, and it's not bad to be a smooth talker. Now that the two main parties have met, he should bring someone out to discuss things. If Lin Pei Pei is unhappy and Jin Ge withdraws from the cooperation project, who will Wen Bin cry to? But since Jin Ge has already spoken, he can't urge him, so he brought out his sister Wen Jia to invite Lin Pei Pei and Jin Ge.

  Wen Jia naturally knew what her brother was up to, but she and Jin Ge had also grown up together. In the past, they would often follow Lin Pei Pei around, so their relationship wasn't ordinary. It made sense for her to step forward. Moreover, she worked at her brother's company, so she had a stake in the business too, and it was only natural that she would put in some effort.

  Lin Peipei still didn't know about the situation with Wen Bin, and she only thought of Wen Jia's phone call as a gathering of old friends without thinking much. After dinner, everyone went to the place Wen Jia said in a big group.
