So, he had indeed been here before.
Pei Huai glanced at the time on his watch.
“We’ve known each other for a long time,” he said in a narrative tone as he slowly sipped the tea.
“Definitely longer than you imagined.” Bian Tong raised his teacup.
“So, what happened in the past?” Pei Huai asked him.
“Which life?”
There were too many things stored in his mind. Sometimes, even he was confused. There was no guarantee that he could remember everything in every life.
However, everything related to Pei Huai was stored in the most important part in his mind.
“Which…life?”
Bian Tong nodded. “Every time you discover my secret, you will come to my place to drink tea. You are very smart, so you’ve been here several times.” For atheists, this information still needed some time to digest.
Pei Huai raised his eyebrows. The teacup knocked lightly on the stone table, making a light sound. “Then tell me, what did I do in each life?”
Bian Tong thought about it seriously. “Then it depends on how you define that. It can be understood as a person’s occupation, a person’s interest, or perhaps, a person’s lifelong obsession.”
Pei Huai’s slender fingers pressed against his temples. He was not very interested in some of the options. “Pick a simple one.”
“Simple?” Bian Tong nodded slightly. “Your obsession then.”
“I can summarize it in one sentence because you’ve been looking for Miss Su in every life…
He looked up at Pei Huai.
Pei Huai also looked at him at this moment.
He mentioned something that interested him. “Then…has this obsession of mine ever been realized before?”
Bian Tong poured him a new cup of tea. “No.”
“You’ve been looking for Miss Su in every life, but the Miss Su you found in those lives was not the one you wanted…”
These words sounded rather vague at first, but they were actually very clear. Pei Huai understood.
Some people loved her appearance.
Pei Huai only looked at Su Ji’s heart and nothing else.
The Miss Su in the previous lives was just like the real Su Ji in this life. She looked exactly like Su Ji. Bian Tong tried to arrange for Pei Huai to meet that
girl. He did not want to see him come and go alone in every life.
However, Pei Huai had no feelings for the girl who only had her appearance.
Hearing Bian Tong say “no”, Pei Huai’s face darkened slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he spoke again, “so, this is the first time I’ve gotten what I wanted?”
“Um…” For some reason, Bian Tong didn’t immediately agree to his words. Instead, he started to stutter.
As if he was deliberately changing the topic, he took out a box from his sleeve, placed it on the stone table, and pushed it in front of Pei Huai.
“Oh right, this is the stone you asked me to bid for.”
Pei Huai did not open it to inspect the goods. He trusted him very much and only teased him with a forced smile. “You put my things in your sleeves like this?”
“Sorry, I’m used to it.” Bian Tong smiled awkwardly.
It was a habit formed thousands of years ago.
