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

One sentence seemed to touch Pei Yanzhou's backbone.

"Are you dreaming?" The man's cold voice was filled with intolerable anger.

Mu Xuetong was so frightened that her legs and feet went weak, and her tears fell even more fiercely.

Pei Yanzhou's dark eyes were full of intolerable disgust, "Mu Xuetong, don't think too highly of yourself. This lawsuit cannot be changed by you alone. If you want to speak out in court, it will be detrimental to Cheng Xi." If so, don't blame me for being rude to you in the future. Besides, even if we lose, even if Cheng Xi goes to jail, it will only take a few years, and she and I can both afford to wait."

After saying that, Pei Yanzhou left with a gloomy expression.

Originally, because of Mu Mu's words, he felt guilty towards Mu Ruoqi.

Now, he felt so sick that he didn't want to come to the hospital at all.

……

night.

Cheng Xi had dinner at Su Ziqing's villa.

Tonight, all the relatives of the Su family are coming over.

In the past, everyone in the Su family hated Cheng Xi, a sluggish person. Ever since Cheng Xi risked his life to save Cheng Yue this time.

The Su family were all very enthusiastic about her, almost treating her like Cheng Yue's biological sister.

"Oh, Cheng Xi, you are so beautiful. It's a pity that you have a boyfriend, otherwise I would have to introduce my eldest nephew to you."

Aunt Su held Cheng Xi's hand and couldn't put it down.

Second Aunt Su said unwillingly, "My nephew is not bad either, he is about the same age as Cheng Xi."

"Forget it, your nephew is not very good at studying. Cheng Xi graduated from a key university. He must still find a top student. My nephew is a top student." Aunt Su said.

Cheng Xi couldn't laugh or cry.

Cheng Yue on the side couldn't help laughing and joked, "Are you regretting it? In fact, you shouldn't have found a boyfriend so early."

"A bit." Cheng Xi nodded seriously.

Uncle Su said: "Okay, okay, you two ladies, please calm down. I'm not belittling my own family, but Pei Yanzhou is way better than your nephews."

"That's right." Second Uncle Su also said, "Cheng Xi, come to our house with Cheng Yue next time you have time."

The people of the Su family were so enthusiastic that even Su Ziqing insisted on asking Cheng Xi to stay for one night.

Cheng Xi thought about sleeping with Cheng Yue at night. It had been a long time since the two of them chatted under the covers.

Not long after she agreed, Pei Yanzhou called her.

"I just came out of the company, where are you? I'm here to find you."

Cheng Xi was embarrassed, "I'm playing at Aunt Su's villa. I won't go back tonight."

Pei Yanzhou: "..."

The phone was quiet for a while.

Cheng Xi said quietly, "You didn't say you would come to me at first. Besides, I thought you would go to the hospital at night."

"I didn't go, I didn't want to go, I wanted to see you." Pei Yanzhou whispered.

Cheng Xi was not soft-hearted, "Tomorrow, I promised my sister to stay."

End the call.

Cheng Yue looked at her with a smile, "Did Pei Yanzhou call you? Did he want you to go back?"

"We haven't lived together or gotten married. He told me to go back as soon as I could. Who hasn't felt free yet?"

Cheng Xi smiled and held Cheng Yue's arm, "Anyway, I will accompany you tonight."

"I'm relieved. It seems that you haven't come to the point where you value sex over your sister." Cheng Yue gently touched her head.

noon the next day.

Cheng Xi didn't go anywhere. After returning home, she made a dish and a soup at home and was about to eat.

Suddenly the doorbell rang outside.

As soon as the door opened, Pei Yanzhou stood outside.

She was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

"Will you think of me if I don't come over?" Pei Yanzhou walked in with a cane and a straight face.

Cheng Xi quickly got a chair for him to sit on, "Didn't you say that there will be a lot of things at the company after the New Year? Besides, your aunt is going to have an operation tomorrow. I thought you would spend most of your time in the hospital today. .”

Pei Yanzhou sat down, his handsome eyebrows furrowed, "I don't really want to go to the hospital."

"why?"

Pei Yanzhou glanced at the woman next to him. The heating was not turned on at home. Cheng Xi was wearing fluffy pajamas, her long hair was tied into a ponytail, and her beautiful and clean little face was inlaid with a pair of black and white eyes, which were wide open. , showing a pure and ignorant brilliance.

He knew that Cheng Xi was by no means an ignorant person.

Just seeing her like this, I couldn't help but feel weak in my heart, and I just wanted to hug her tightly and take good care of her.

He was absolutely convinced.

Even if he knew that Mu Ruoqi liked him, he would not be moved.

The only person he wants to stick to for the rest of his life is her.

"Yesterday... Aunt Mu said that Ruoqi has liked me since she was a student."

Pei Yanzhou suddenly frowned and said, "I don't know at all."

Cheng Xi was surprised, "Why did she suddenly tell you this? Could it be that she just discovered it recently?"

"No, she's going to have an operation tomorrow. She's afraid she won't be able to survive, and wants me to take care of Uncle Mu and the others."

Pei Yanzhou was afraid that she would have random thoughts, so he hid the news from the Mu family that Mu Ruoqi was suffering from depression.

Cheng Xi softly said "Oh" with a calm expression.

"You...don't say something?" Pei Yanzhou held her hand, and Cheng Xi's reaction was beyond his expectation.

"What are you talking about? I have long noticed that she likes you. Otherwise, why would I mind that you always go to see her late at night? I am not sick."

Cheng Xi tugged at her lips, "On the contrary, you are slow. You always say that Mu Ruoqi is your family. I told you that you are not related by blood to her, and you are so good to her, so others will be attracted to you." It’s inevitable.”

Pei Yanzhou was embarrassed.

He has always boasted of being a strategist in the market, but he really has no experience in love.

"What are you doing now? Do you feel complicated when you hear that your childhood sweetheart has actually been deeply in love with you for a long time?"

Cheng Xi suddenly stared at him with a half-smile, "Do you have any secret happiness in your heart?"

"Don't bury me. I'm either happy or frightened."

Pei Yanzhou said quickly, "If I could do it over again, maybe I would rather go into an orphanage. This would not make Ruoqi like me. I simply can't afford the affection she wants."

Cheng Xi was quite sober, "Actually, if I hadn't appeared, you might have been willing to give her a marriage. You were even willing to date Xia Ziyao before. After all, Mu Ruoqi knows everything about you. If she hadn't had an accident, After being in a coma for a few years, you might have gotten married long ago."

Pei Yanzhou was stunned.

is that so.

maybe.

If Mu Ruoqi was not in a coma and he reached the appropriate age after returning to China to start a business, he might choose to get married when Mu's mother told him that Ruoqi liked him.

One is because of kindness, and the other is that he and Ruoqi grew up together.

I have to say that Cheng Xi really understands him.

"Your guess is right, but even if I get married to Ruoqi, I won't have any love for her."

"Even if I get married to Ruoqi, I won't have any love for her."

Pei Yanzhou said, "If I could fall in love with her, I would have fallen in love with her long ago."
