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

"My elder brother is pretty good."

Pei Yanzhou said reluctantly, "Don't you usually go home at nine o'clock when your mother opens a store? You have to cook by yourself when you go back to eat. It's more convenient to eat at my place and go back. The dishes cooked for me in the cafeteria are all done separately." It’s made, tastes good, and is very clean.”

"Forget it, the canteen has to make another one, it's too troublesome."

Cheng Xi opened the insulated lunch box that Pei Heyang brought over. There were two dishes and one soup in it. The food was really good, and the soup was rich in nutrients, and there were a lot of tonics in it.

"Eat quickly."

Cheng Xi helped him unfold the table on the hospital bed.

Pei Yanzhou looked at the swollen back of his hand, then at the hand where the infusion was being administered, and said in a faint tone, "My hand hurts. It's not convenient for me to eat now."

Cheng Xi still couldn't understand his little thoughts.

She felt sorry for him, but she didn't want to do what he wanted, "You mean you want me to serve you?"

The word of service made Pei Yanzhou subconsciously excited, "That's not the case, it's just my hands..."

"I'll call a caregiver for you." Cheng Xi said, "Your brother said he hired a caregiver for you, but why haven't you seen anyone yet?"

"I don't like strangers in the ward, and I can move myself. Unless there are special circumstances, I usually don't let her come up."

Seeing that she was unmoved, Pei Yanzhou gradually lost his expectant eyes, "Forget it, I'll eat it myself."

Cheng Xi said sarcastically on the side, "You should be eating by yourself. Is your hand just a little swollen? What's the big deal? You are a person who dares to pull out the needle by yourself, and you still care about the pain."

Pei Yanzhou: "..."

He picked up the spoon, poured the soup into a clean bowl, and said to Cheng Xi, "I can't finish it by myself, so you should drink some too. There are a lot of supplements in it. It's good for your health."

"I'm in very good health."

Cheng Xi said with a straight face, "You can drink all the soup yourself. It doesn't matter if you eat less rice."

Pei Yanzhou blinked, "I..."

"I don't need you to drink it for me. I came to the hospital to visit and drank your soup. It's not like I've never had soup before." Cheng Xi said angrily.

When Pei Yanzhou saw this, he could only drink the soup silently.

With Cheng Xi here, his appetite improved a lot. He ate all the dishes and half a bowl of rice.

Cheng Xi put away the bowl, sat on the edge and peeled an apple.

"Do you want to watch TV?"

Pei Yanzhou was afraid that she would be bored, so he took out the remote control from the bed and handed it to her.

"I do not watch."

Cheng Xi cut the apple into small pieces. As soon as she finished cutting, her cell phone rang. It was the monitor of Su University who called to ask if she had time to attend the class graduation dinner tomorrow night.

"Cheng Xi, you have to come. Now you are the best in our class." The monitor said with a smile, "I also called Xu Xiao and the others. Many students will go after the graduation ceremony tomorrow. It’s a different city now, so it’s hard to meet again.”

"Okay, but I only have time for dinner. I have a roommate who I have a lot of fun with and is going back to his hometown. We need to get together in the evening."

"That's no problem. Remember to come to school early tomorrow and let's take some commemorative photos together."

The ward was very quiet. Pei Yanzhou had been listening carefully. He couldn't hear clearly what Cheng Xi was saying to the other party, but he could vaguely tell that it was a man.

Pei Yanzhou couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.

After Cheng Xi hung up, he asked resentfully, "Did that drunk guy call you last time?"

Cheng Xi was stunned for a moment, and when she met his jealous eyes, she couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth, "No."

Pei Yanzhou frowned, "That's the Shanghai man I met last time in the ancient town. Do you still have contact?"

"..."

Cheng Xi sighed silently, "We haven't contacted each other for a long time, okay? The person who called me just now was the monitor of our school. The school graduation ceremony will be tomorrow. The monitor said that we will have a breakup dinner together tomorrow night."

Pei Yanzhou suddenly realized that he remembered that Pei Feiyue said that their school would hold a graduation ceremony tomorrow. She and Cheng Xi were in the same class and were graduating.

"Also, that drunk boy you were talking about..."

Cheng Xi cleared her throat and glanced at him sideways, "The reason why I am willing to let him lean on my shoulder is because it is completely impossible for us. He is my cousin and we are related by blood."

"..."

Pei Yanzhou's pupils were filled with astonishment, "Cousin?"

So he has been mistaking Cheng Xi's cousin for her new boyfriend during this period?

Pei Yanzhou felt like vomiting blood.

"Yes." Cheng Xi crossed her arms, "We are not like you and Mu Ruoqi. You have no blood relationship at all."

Pei Yanzhoujun's face turned red, "Where is your cousin from? I've never heard of you talking about it before. Didn't you say that your relatives on your father's side didn't care about you since you were a child? Didn't you say that you didn't care about you after you came to Su City? .”

Cheng Xi said lightly, "Isn't that just how people are? When you are poor, no one wants to be a relative with you. If you live well, your relatives will come to see you."

Pei Yanzhou immediately frowned gloomily, "In this case, you should let your cousin go."

Cheng Xi pursed her lips, "My grandma and second uncle threatened me that if I didn't arrange a job for my cousin, they would tell my dad about my current studio. My dad had been in He was in prison and was later released. I don’t know what he was doing, but if he knew that my mother and I were doing well now, he would definitely come to us and cause trouble. My studio has just started, so it’s better to do less than to do more.”

Pei Yanzhou's eyes became gloomy, "Why didn't you tell me what happened so long ago?"

Cheng Xi tugged at her lips, "You were busy with Mu Ruoqi's affairs at that time. You were very busy just talking to you on the phone and sending you WeChat messages."

Pei Yanzhoujun's face turned pale.

Only then did he realize that she had been threatened during that time, and she must have felt uncomfortable.

Being her boyfriend didn't help her at all.

No wonder she was so angry and disappointed with herself.

"Cheng Xi, I'm sorry..." He was very regretful, "I'll call and make arrangements now so that your father's relatives don't want to cause trouble for you."

"no need."

Cheng Xi said, "I have decided to keep Tao Mufan. He is still young and has a good temper. He has been quite diligent during this period. I now ask him to help my mother's shop. It just so happened that Cheng Zhouhua passed away recently. No, just come to the store and pester my mother when you have nothing to do. With him here, Cheng Zhouhua doesn’t dare to mess around."

"Cheng Zhouhua is pestering your mother?" Pei Yanzhou became even more frustrated. As a boyfriend, he failed to fulfill his responsibility to protect his girlfriend and her family.

"He is not doing well now. The furniture store he opened before has also closed down and he owes a lot of debt. Now that he knows that my mother is doing well, he wants to reconcile with my mother."

Cheng Xi said lightly, "Anyway, it's good that Tao Mufan is here now. We usually socialize in the studio, and it's quite useful to have him accompany us for drinks."
