Substitute new wife: Mr. Pei, are you getting divorced today?

Cheng Xi was stunned for a moment and closed the book.

"Why don't you speak?" Pei Feiyue asked.

"I'm waiting for you to attack me with all kinds of ugly words." Cheng Xi replied.

Pei Feiyue was not there when she went to Pei's house that day, but she would definitely know about such a big thing later.

Even though the two had become friends before, they became enemies due to this incident.

Pei Feiyue's eyes widened, "Who do you think I am? We are friends."

A look of surprise appeared on Cheng Xi's face, "Your mother hates me very much. She probably says bad things about me in front of you."

"My mother did say bad things about you, but I am in my twenties and I have my own independent thoughts."

Pei Feiyue curled her lips, "No matter who you are, it is a fact that you saved me. If you were a selfish and bad person, you would not sacrifice your body to save me in the bar. In that situation, it is what a person would do." It’s all instinctive.”

"I lied to your family. I got married as a substitute. Pei Yanzhou even said that I was taking advantage of his feelings."

"But my grandparents didn't hold you accountable either."

Pei Feiyue scratched the back of her head, "I think you were also instigated by your stepfather. Plus... without money, it's easy to make some wrong choices, and to be honest, I even gave a doctor a diagnosis People who are about to die are happy, and you really shouldn’t expect a rich girl with excellent conditions to marry you. How can I put it, just like my grandfather said, my brother-in-law woke up on the wedding night, and you have completed your task. Everyone, everyone Take what you need.”

"Did your grandfather really say that?" Cheng Xi was surprised. She thought everyone in the Pei family was scolding her to death.

"Yes, actually my grandpa said that you are quite courageous. Few young people dare to speak like this in front of him. You are not impulsive and bold, but you are brave and resourceful. It's a pity... the environment you grew up in is too complicated. Well, the conditions at home are too bad," Pei Feiyue looked at her honestly but hesitated.

"I understand." Cheng Xi smiled calmly, "If I have children in the future, I don't want my children to marry someone whose family conditions are too complicated. What's more, for a wealthy family like you, finding someone who is well-matched will save a lot of trouble. "

Pei Feiyue looked complicated, "Cheng Xi, I really admire you. After so many things, you can still live so sanely. You treat my brother-in-law..."

Cheng Xi was silent for a moment before confessing, "Of course I really like him. On the day I applied for the marriage certificate, I confessed to him and asked if I could pursue him, but he was rejected. The result was actually expected. I just wanted to Try it, if you like someone for the first time, you don’t want to leave any regrets.”

Pei Feiyue was dumbfounded and a little envious, "My brother-in-law... is very sensible, very proud, and very afraid of trouble. He values ​​work more than anything else. Even if a person like him has a little crush on you, , and will not be dominated by emotions.”

"Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that." Cheng Xi replied with a sigh in his heart.

"You don't hate him at all?" Pei Feiyue couldn't help but ask.

"Why should I hate him?" Cheng Xi smiled, "You have the right to confess and pursue, and he also has the right to refuse. Looking at me from his status, identity, and perspective, I do feel a little overestimated."

Pei Feiyue looked at her quietly for a few seconds, and finally sighed, "Okay, Cheng Xi, you are very calm and rational, but don't worry, I won't look down on you. Now that I admit you This friend, as long as you don’t betray me, you will always be my friend.”

"Don't you think my family situation is complicated?" Cheng Xi looked strange.

"Why do you dislike it? I'm not looking for a husband."

Cheng Xi: "..."

I thank you.

"Ahem." Pei Feiyue suddenly approached her unnaturally, "Um... did Senior Tang call you for your birthday?"

Cheng Xi nodded, "We will go together then."

Pei Feiyue was happy for a while and then depressed, "Senior Pei called you instead of me. Fortunately, we were both members of the student union before. He really likes you more."

This question was not easy for Cheng Xi to answer, "Anyway, you still have to rely on yourself to pursue Senior Tang."

"Okay, I know." Pei Feiyue looked at Cheng Xi and said enviously, "I should also learn from you, be more open-minded, and try my best anyway. If someone doesn't like me, I can't force it."

"Yes, feelings are the last thing that can be forced."

A month ago, Cheng Xi would never have been able to say such a thing. Now, he can be regarded as someone who has had emotional experience, although he doesn't have much experience.

……

Come Monday.

Tang Lin sent a message to Cheng Xi and invited her to have a simple birthday dinner with her friends in the evening.

Cheng Xi agreed and said he would bring one more friend.

Tang Lin: [Okay, I originally wanted you to invite a friend to come with you. There are a few good colleagues in the company tonight, so I'm afraid you won't feel comfortable. 】

After school in the afternoon, Cheng Xi drove and took Pei Feiyue over.

On the way, Pei Feiyue called Pei Heyang to ask for leave, "Dad, I really have something to do tonight. It's a friend's birthday... Okay, I will be back before eleven o'clock."

After hanging up the phone, Pei Feiyue couldn't help complaining, "My dad is really annoying. I'm already in my twenties and he still manages me like a primary school student."

"Last time you had an accident at the bar, they were also concerned about you."

"Oh, forget it, with their suffocating care, I'm afraid I'll be single until old age." After Pei Feiyue finished speaking, she suddenly raised her eyebrows, "Do you know why I want to drive by your car?"

Cheng Xi guessed: "Are you afraid that I will drink at night and want to help me drive?"

Pei Feiyue rolled her eyes, "Forget it, your emotional intelligence is a bit low. I don't drive. Then I can use the excuse of drinking too much and ask Senior Tang to take me back."

Cheng Xi: "..."

She is a married woman, but she is laughed at by someone who has never been in love?

Well, I don’t want to argue with her.

Cheng Xi couldn't help complaining: "Senior Tang can't possibly send you back to the Pei family's old house. It's so far away and he doesn't have a car."

"Oh my God, you really don't pay attention to Senior Tang." Pei Feiyue glared at her, "Didn't you see Senior Tang's WeChat Moments last night? It seems like his parents funded half of his birthday this time. , let him buy a jeep, alas, Senior Tang is so good, he only graduated a few years ago and he can earn so much money."

Cheng Xi could no longer complain, "No, you, a person who has driven a million-dollar sports car since the beginning of school, have the nerve to praise someone who buys a Jeep? Don't let me remind you who was madly disgusted with his Corolla before."

"That's different. If I didn't rely on my family, I wouldn't be able to buy a Jeep, not even tires."

"..."

She was so self-aware that Cheng Xi didn't know what to say.

If you think about it carefully, Tang Lin is indeed quite capable among his peers, apart from those who have the aura of wealthy and talented people.
