TSMVHATRM Chapter 86

Time Space: the Male Villain Has the Ability To Read Minds Chapter 86: My cousins skipped school

The man looked gentle and polite, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, a black coat, and a pair of hiking shoes. There was a small suitcase on the ground.

He smiled gently at Xie Jiagui, and when the food came, he said “thank you” to Xie Jiagui.

This made Xie Jiagui, who was always rough, a little uncomfortable, and he waved his hand and said it was okay.

The man started to eat with his chopsticks. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with the food. His eyes lit up several times while he was eating. It was obvious that he didn’t expect that there would be such a delicious restaurant in such a remote town.

After eating, he praised the taste of the food to Xie Jiagui several times without hesitation, and then he left with the suitcase.

Xie Jiagui cleaned up the dishes on the man’s table, and murmured unconsciously: “People from the city are so polite.”

Pei Tiantian nodded.

She also felt that the man was indeed very cultured, and thought he must be from a big city.

After finishing her work, Zhou Wanhong took Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong to the car to go home.

After a few steps, she suddenly stopped, apparently remembering something. “By the way, where are Tianyu and Zihao? Why aren’t they with you?”

Pei Tiantian was startled. She realized her two cousins hadn’t come to see her; she had completely forgotten about them.

She wondered if Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu had gone out at noon and returned for class this afternoon.

Could they have skipped school?

Just as Pei Tiantian was at a loss for words, the car arrived, and Zhou Wanhong’s voice rang out, “Forget them. Let’s go back first. They have money on them and know how to get home.”

Upon returning home, Pei Tiantian immediately checked to see if Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu had returned.

Of course, they hadn’t.

Even when the Peis’ family had dinner, they were nowhere to be seen.

“Where have those two been? Why haven’t they come back yet?” Wang Ruizhen asked.

“Maybe they were delayed on the way,” Pei Zhiqiang said.

“Grandma, my eldest cousin and second cousin followed a group of people out of the school gate at noon today. I don’t know where they went. We don’t know whether they came back for class in the afternoon.”

Pei Tiantian said weakly.

She felt a little annoyed and felt that she was too indifferent to her two cousins.

When Pei Zhiwen heard this, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and went out to ask the family next door.

The child of the neighboring family was in the same class as Pei Zihao.

After learning that Pei Zihao did not show up in the classroom at all in the afternoon, Pei Zhiwen’s face darkened.

When he came back, he told everyone about their truancy.

“These two kids, they finally behaved themselves for a while, why are they doing this again?” Wan Cuilan complained.

Gu Rong, who was always silent, suddenly made a move. He went to the house, took a piece of paper, wrote a few lines, and handed it to everyone to see.

Pei Tiantian opened her grape eyes and looked carefully at what Gu Rong wrote.

“I heard their conversation this morning. They seemed to be talking about going to some film crew. Maybe they left school early just to go to that crew.”

“Film crew? What kind of film crew are a group of elementary school students going to?”

Pei Zhiwen looked confused.

Gu Rong shook his head.

He actually didn’t hear the conversation between Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu. He just overheard a few of their scattered thoughts.

Film crew?

Pei Tiantian’s face turned strange.

Wait, this couldn’t be the costume drama mentioned in the novel, where Pei Tianyu had a cameo appearance as a child?

Pei Tianyu received a salary of 500 yuan for this guest appearance, which also made him start to dream of becoming a star.

When the villagers knew that the drama Pei Tianyu had filmed was on TV, they kept calling him “little star”.

This greatly satisfied Wan Cuilan’s vanity. In addition, she saw that 500 yuan was so easy to earn, and she was obsessed with it for a while. She dreamed all day long that her son would become famous overnight and become a big star.

In the end, she even supported Pei Tianyu to drop out of school and go north to look for acting opportunities.

As a result, Pei Tianyu was foolishly deceived into working illegally and died.

Pei Tianyu’s tragic life began from here.

Pei Tiantian took a deep breath slowly.

No matter what, as long as she is there, she will never allow her cannon fodder second brother to drop out of school.

“Let’s eat first and talk after they come back.”

After Wang Ruizhen said this, the only sound during the meal was the collision of dishes and chopsticks.

It was around eight or nine o’clock when Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu came back. Both of them were very excited and talked at once.

However, as soon as they entered the door, they saw that the faces of the Pei family members were not very good, and they were instantly scared like quails.

“You still remember to come back? We didn’t say that you like to go out and play on weekdays, but now you are skipping school during school hours. What on earth did you do? Tell the truth!”

Wang Ruizhen said sternly.

Seeing Pei Tianyu and Pei Zihao hesitate to speak, Pei Tiantian couldn’t help herself. She blinked twice, tears streaming down her face. She said aggrievedly, “Brothers, please don’t skip school, okay? Tiantian doesn’t like it when you skip school. I don’t want to hear you get called bad kids!”

Seeing Pei Tiantian crying, Pei Tianyu and Pei Zihao were heartbroken. Pei Zihao couldn’t hold back any more and finally said loudly, “Tiantian, we didn’t skip school on purpose. We wanted to earn money to secretly buy you a birthday present, a surprise for you.”

Pei Tiantian was about to burst into tears, but she was held back, her expression dazed for a moment.

What? They were buying her a present?

Oh, Pei Tiantian suddenly remembered that her birthday was the following week, September 12th.

“A classmate of ours has an uncle who works in a film crew. They recently came to our place to film a movie and are looking for young actors. Tianyu and I wanted to save money to buy Tiantian a good birthday present, so we went for an interview with many other people in the class. Unexpectedly, Tianyu actually got the job. Hahaha! It was just a line of four words, and after filming for a while, the crew gave Tianyu five hundred yuan!”

Pei Zihao said this, proudly putting his hands on his hips, as if he was the one who was chosen.

Pei Tianyu also took out the five hundred yuan in his pocket and showed it to everyone to prove that they were not lying.

This turn of events made everyone in the Pei family stunned, and they couldn’t recover for a long time.

These two rascals were not going out to play, but to make money, and to buy a gift for their sister.

They didn’t know whether to praise or scold them for such behavior.

The words that were originally intended to be used to blame these two rascals were just choked back.

When Wan Cuilan saw the five hundred yuan in Pei Tianyu’s hand, her eyes lit up immediately. She walked up to him ecstatically and kissed him on the forehead twice. “Tianyu made so much money? That’s amazing!”
