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

A cup of coffee was gently placed on his desk, but he did not leave. Instead, he walked around behind him and said, "Tsk, tsk, I thought you were working overtime hard, but I didn't expect you were reading Cheng Xi's Weibo."

Lu Chongli's interesting voice sounded in his ears.

Pei Yanzhou suddenly raised his head and faced Lu Chongli's handsome face with a smile.

"Why are you here?" Pei Yanzhou put down the phone calmly.

"Didn't you ask me to ask Lawyer He about Cheng Xi's current boyfriend when you came back from a broken relationship some time ago?" Lu Chongli inserted the knife without caring at all. It was rare to see Pei Yanzhou in defeat. As a bad friend, of course he Can't miss this good thing.

Pei Yanzhou's face suddenly turned ugly.

He doesn't want to hear anyone say that he is broken in love, nor does he want to hear that Cheng Xi has a boyfriend.

"Okay, don't react like that." Lu Chongli smiled and found a sofa to sit down on. "With your ability, it won't be a matter of time to break up with Cheng Xi."

"...I don't like using such despicable methods." Pei Yanzhou took a sip of coffee in an irritable mood, "If Cheng Xi knew that I used my power to force Tang Lin to leave her, she would only hate me even more."

Lu Chongli chuckled, not too surprised. Although the Pei Yanzhou he knew was mean and cold, he was not a despicable person. "Don't worry, I asked you about it. I feel that Cheng Xi and her senior boyfriend They should break up sooner or later, Tang Lin is not suitable for Cheng Xi."

"Tell me about it." Pei Yanzhou raised his eyebrows, becoming more interested.

"Lawyer He said that he has had Tang Lin with him for several months. Tang Lin has very solid basic knowledge. He is also careful and smart. He is also polite in dealing with others. He has a good relationship with the people in their company. However, he has A big flaw.”

Lu Chongli said with a smile, "He is too merciful. Some time ago, Lawyer He took Tang Lin to handle a case out of town. As a result, when Tang Lin contacted the client in private, he felt that the client was very pitiful. He believed the client's words and accepted the client's offer. Fortunately, Lawyer He was careful and carefully checked the information when it was submitted to the court."

Pei Yanzhou raised his eyebrows, "This kind of character is a big taboo in the legal profession."

"Of course, he is a newcomer after all, so he can understand it, but Lawyer He said that this is not the first time he has noticed his soft-heartedness. A lawyer's duty is to provide legal aid to clients. Some of these clients may be good or bad. , If you want to gain a foothold in the legal profession, you don’t have to pick lawsuits, you have to fight every lawsuit well.”

Lu Chongli shook his head, "Lawyer He is going to suggest that he take the exam as a prosecutor. Being a lawyer is not suitable for him."

Pei Yanzhou was thoughtful and finally said, "Cheng Xi won't like a man who is soft-hearted and soft-hearted."

Lu Chongli snapped his fingers, "I think so too."

"Do you know Cheng Xi very well?" Pei Yanzhou suddenly became unhappy and stared at Lu Chongli with a hint of defensiveness.

Lu Chongli was speechless, "Not to mention understanding, I have also contacted her a few times. Just saying that after your family found out about her substitute marriage, she was able to escape from the Pei family, which shows that Cheng Xi is a courageous person. Such a Combined with her character and the environment she has lived in since she was a child, one biological father is an alcoholic and prone to domestic violence, and the other Cheng Zhouhua is even more disgusting. Cheng Xi lives in such an environment, can she appreciate such a kind and soft-hearted man?"

Pei Yanzhou nodded, "Not only that, she also has ambitions. Now that she has hooked up with Xia Anqing, she will only go further in the future, and the gap between her and Tang Lin will become wider and wider."

Cheng Xi chose Tang Rin because she believed that she and Tang Rin were on the same starting line and could work together for the future.

But she doesn't understand men. Once she runs too fast, the people left behind will feel uneasy and lose confidence.

"The farther Cheng Xi walks forward, the closer he gets to you, doesn't he?" Lu Chongli joked.

Pei Yanzhou suddenly looked at this brother with a much kinder look.

"But I just don't know if during the time Cheng Xi and Tang Lin are together, the boys and girls will not be able to help but have sex with each other..." Lu Chongli hesitantly inserted the knife again.

Pei Yanzhou's handsome face once again became clouded visibly to the naked eye, "It's impossible. During this period, Cheng Xi has been at the film and television base, and she can only pretend to be at work. Based on my understanding of her, she has no intention of thinking about anything else. When she returns to Sioux City after filming, I will find a way to break up the two of them."

Lu Chongli complained, "Who said just now that he would not use despicable means?"

"If they are destined to break up, I am doing this to protect Cheng Xi and prevent her from taking detours on the road of love." Pei Yanzhou glanced at Lu Chongli lightly, "She will only be grateful to me in the future."

Lu Chongli was convinced from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't compare to him in terms of shamelessness. "Now that you've thought about it, don't stay in the office and work overtime every day. Look at you, you're in your twenties and you don't understand." Take care of yourself, I remind you, don’t wait until Cheng Xi gets back together with you. You should get rid of wrinkles on yourself first. Cheng Xi will definitely dislike it by then. Nowadays, young girls are all pretty, and you With this figure, be careful not to exercise and lose your abdominal muscles.”

Pei Yanzhou subconsciously touched his face, frowned, and then stood up, "Let's get off work. I haven't been to the gym for a long time. Let's go together."

Lu Chongli, who had just finished swimming, suddenly regretted it and wanted to cry. He shouldn't have been so mean.

……

Two months later.

When Cheng Xi returned to Sioux City again, the weather had turned cold, and the cold wind picked up the fallen leaves.

The car drove into Sioux City University.

After parking the car, the two sisters walked toward the teaching building together.

"Sister, did you tell your brother-in-law to come back today?"

"I didn't say, I wanted to give him a surprise, but I asked around and he has classes this afternoon." Cheng Yue was wearing a woolen coat and smiled very softly, "Okay, you go and do your work. Wait. I’ll wait for him to get off work together later.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Yue looked up and saw Han Qilin and a tall woman with slightly curly hair walking over on the tree-lined path opposite, holding hands with Hanya Cheng.

Hanya Cheng held the hands of the two adults, grabbed the two ponytails, jumped up and down, and smiled happily.

Not sure what Hanya Cheng was talking about, Han Qilin and the woman looked at each other.

The picture looked as beautiful as a family of three.

The smile that had not faded from Cheng Yue's face froze.

Cheng Xi followed her gaze and guessed that the woman was probably Han Qilin's ex-wife Shen Yu without asking.

This was the first time she saw this Shen Yu. He wore long black high-heeled boots, a belted trench coat, long hair blowing in the wind, and big red lips. He exuded the elegance and charm of a mature woman.
