After his wife left, Mr. Ye, who found the pregnancy test form, cried like crazy

Fang Li subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Mrs. Fu seemed to have guessed what she was going to say: "It's been a long time since I last saw you, auntie."

"I still remember when you were a kid, you were so small, and now you've grown up so big. Are you alienated from your aunt?"

Mrs. Fu has said so much.

If she refused again, Fang Li would be considered unkind, so she had no choice but to agree.

After hanging up the phone, Fang Li felt a little annoyed that she had not asked Fu Yizheng whether he would go too.

She didn't really want to see Fu Yizheng.

But I can't fight back, otherwise it would seem deliberate.

She sighed and murmured, "Forget it, I'll just lay it out and make it clear when the time comes."

In the Fu family's living room.

After finishing the call, Mrs. Fu looked to one side and said, "I made the call for you. You can seize the opportunity yourself."

Sitting next to him was a man in dark grey clothes.

The silver-framed glasses and home clothes gave him a sense of life, but his eyes were too deep and sharp, and this outfit, which should have been approachable, also made him look dangerous.

He didn't know what he was thinking about, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Little Lihua, we will meet again soon, right?"

Fang Li hesitated for a long time, wondering whether to tell Pei Qing that Mrs. Fu had invited her to the dinner party.

I told him because I was afraid he would think too much.

But if you don't say it, it will seem suspicious.

All her hesitations disappeared when she accidentally saw the gold-plated invitation on Pei Qing's desk.

"Are you planning to attend this charity dinner as well?"

Pei Qing noticed her choice of words and paused, "You said that?"

"Mrs. Fu invited me to participate, and I agreed." Fang Li said, staring at his face, "Are you angry?"

When Pei Qing first heard it, he did feel uncomfortable.

But that was because the scene at the record store that day flashed through his mind, and the words the man lip-read when he passed by him.

I heard Fang Li's call.

His eyes flashed, his consciousness quickly returned, and he smiled, "If you want to go, that's great. I can come with you."

Seeing that Pei Qing really didn't care and wasn't angry, Fang Li felt inexplicably unhappy.

"Pei Qing, tell me the truth, do you dislike me? Otherwise, why are you unmoved when seeing someone courting me?" Fang Li approached and pressed, "Aren't you jealous at all?"

She placed her hands on the table and leaned forward slightly.

This is an act of taking sovereignty.

If Pei Qing wanted to look at her, he had to raise his eyes to meet hers, which put him at a disadvantage. However, he didn't care at all whether he was the inferior one.

He leaned forward a little and leaned closer to her, and then his voice sounded in her ear: "What if I actually care?"

The man had a very low voice, not the kind that was deliberately lowered, but the kind that came naturally and was very seductive.

Fang Li's ears were tickled by his breath and she didn't hear clearly.

So Pei Qing had to move closer.

Fang Li was ready to listen to him.

Unexpectedly, he did not follow the routine and gently bit her earlobe.

Fang Li jumped up instantly, her earlobe dripping blood, "You try it again!"

"As long as it's useful." Pei Qing curved his lips, the faint smile in his eyes intoxicating.

Pei Qing's joke undoubtedly omitted the answer to the question.

Later, Fang Li's mind was filled with his bite, and she couldn't remember anything else. Pei Qing seemed to be deliberately avoiding the topic and never brought it up again.

Two days later, on a luxury cruise ship docked at the port.

Men and women of all kinds were on the deck, chatting and drinking, their wine glasses reflecting brilliant light under the lights.

The waiters were moving among the crowd, carrying drinks.

When Fang Li came up with Pei Qing, they attracted some people's attention.

Someone was looking straight at her.

There is no other reason, Fang Li is just too beautiful.

The dark blue skirt is dotted with tiny stars, and the scattered diamonds sparkle with a light similar to starlight. From a distance, it looks sparkling, like the surface of the sea with waves, deep and quiet.

Her curly hair was the finishing touch. When she walked over with her skirt lifted, one almost thought they were seeing the legendary mermaid.

There are all kinds of people on this cruise ship, including upstarts in the business world, bosses from overseas, and people who are here only to hunt for beauties.

Almost all the female guests who came to the banquet were looked at by these people. If they saw one that suited their taste, they would go up and chat with her directly.

Someone as beautiful as Fang Li is a target that these people are unwilling to let go.

"A pretty girl, if I fuck her, can I get her contact information?"

"You'd better save your money. If you want, give it to me. Looking at your appearance, even an ordinary girl, let alone a beautiful woman, would not be attracted to you."

"Fuck you!"

Pei Qing's expression became indifferent, and he silently blocked the aggressive gazes of these people.

Forced by his cold gaze, some people realized that Fang Li was not something they could afford to hook, and patted the shoulder of the person next to them, "Forget it, brother, don't think about it, the beauty has already been taken and you can't snatch her away."

The man looked at Pei Qing with fear and gave up the idea.

The gaze that had been lingering around Cong Fangli since the beginning finally dissipated.

Pei Qing held Fang Li's hand tightly and whispered, "Hold on to me, and don't leave my side in this."

Fang Li also noticed the way those people were spying on him, and knowing the consequences, she followed him closely.

The banquet venue is set up inside the cruise ship, and the deck outside is only used for eating, drinking, and entertainment.

There are three floors inside, and there is even an elevator, a spiral staircase, and crystal chandeliers that illuminate the entire venue.

The theme of this charity dinner is auction.

But the auction hasn't started yet, and people gathered here are just raising their glasses and chatting. If they see someone they know, they will go up and chat for a while.

Fang Li came here for Madam Fu, and she was the one who gave the invitations.

As soon as she came in, she looked everywhere for Mrs. Fu.

"Boss Pei, I haven't seen you for a few days. You're here to attend the auction, too, and you brought a female companion with you. What's your name?"

An elegant man came over and greeted Pei Qing.

Pei Qing shook hands with him. "Mr. Wu, you are too polite. And this is my wife Fang Li."

When he heard the word "wife", Mr. Wu raised his eyebrows, obviously surprised.

Most of the men in the upper class separated their marriage and private life. He had seen many men who changed their female companions more frequently than their clothes, but this was the first time he had seen someone like Pei Qing bring his wife with him.

This inevitably made him look up to Pei Qing.

"I wish you and your wife happiness." He clinked glasses with Pei Qing.

Then the two of them started chatting about business, what a coincidence.

Pei Qing was in the real estate business. It just so happened that Mr. Wu ran a chain of hotels. He had recently won a piece of land at an auction and wanted to build another hotel.

So the two of them went back and forth and just started chatting.

After chatting for a long time without them stopping, Fang Li felt a little tired and moved closer to Pei Qing and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Pei Qing's eyes hesitated for a moment.
