    Chapter 30

    “I’ll boil some water.”

    Pei Qingyan didn’t ask why, she got up and went to wash out the kettle, “Would you like some tea?”

    “No, just plain water.”

    Xu Zhi noticed that she kept staring at the tea gift box she brought, and smiled unconsciously, “Don’t want to give it away?”

    The woman said “Yeah” and nodded heavily, “I’m very angry.”

    “Okay, don’t be familiar with them. You see, I don’t take it to heart.”

    I originally wanted to say a few words to lighten the mood.Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, the woman held her tightly in her arms and said in a dull voice, “It is precisely because of this that I am angry.”

    It was rare for her to be so emotionally explicit.

    “Ayan…” Xu Zhiyi was stunned and wanted to say it was okay, but when the words came to his mouth, they got stuck in his throat and turned into a sigh.

    In fact, she herself was very conflicted about taking Pei Qingyan home.On the one hand, she didn’t want the other party to compromise with her parents because she cared about her, and on the other hand, she didn’t want the other party to see her in such a miserable state.

    It’s okay for her to feel a little wronged.Xu Zhiyi has been here like this for so many years, so he won’t feel cold.In other words, her heart had become completely cold after being ignored again and again.

    “Are you tired? Why don’t you go to bed and lie down for a while?”

    Before she could express her position, the woman took it upon herself to make the bed.

    “I’m okay, not too tired.” Xu Zhiyi helped her hang up her windbreaker, “But you have been driving for such a long time and need a good rest.”

    “But I want my wife to accompany me.”

    Pei Qingyan grabbed her fingers, and his fingertips took the opportunity to fill the gap between them, locking her in the palm of his hand.The movements were strong, but the tone was extremely soft, with a hint of begging mixed in.

    Looking at each other for a moment, Xu Zhiyi turned away and slowly got into her arms, finding a comfortable position out of habit.

    The next second, the woman rubbed her neck restlessly and sighed with satisfaction, “It would be great if it could always be like this.”

    The hot breath he exhaled made Xu Zhiyi’s heart feel hot.

    Although she was obviously greedy for the current atmosphere, she still wanted to put an end to her inner doubts.

    “Ayan, I want to ask you something.”

    She hesitated for a moment, looking at the woman with emotions in her eyes that she couldn’t quite understand, “Will you…”

    “Knock knock knock!”

    A knock on the door sounded at this time.

    “I’ll open the door.” Xu Zhiyi held down the woman who was about to get up and walked quickly towards the door.

    “Second Miss,” the servant lowered his head and couldn’t see his expression clearly, “The eldest miss invites you to come and talk to me in the house.”

    “Tell her that I’m going to take a nap. If you need anything, we’ll talk about it at the family dinner tonight.”

    Xu Zhiyi closed the door without hesitation, not giving the other party a chance to continue speaking.

    Even without thinking about it, she knew that if the other party came to her at this time, she would definitely agree with her parents.

    There was no need for her to bring trouble upon herself.

    “Xu Yunyun is my sister, but the two of us have met no more than five times in total. Ever since we can remember, we have only heard of her name but never seen her.”

    She briefly introduced Pei Qingyan, “…Anyway, no matter how extravagant she says tonight, don’t pay attention to her.”

    “Okay.” The woman nodded without thinking and did not ask any questions as usual, as if what she said was what she said.

    Xu Zhiyi kicked off her slippers and lay back in her arms, “Ayan, I don’t want to come back after today.”

    After only a while, she was already exhausted both physically and mentally.

    “Then I won’t come back.”

    The woman leaned over and kissed her forehead, “The decision is yours. By the way, what did you want to ask me just now?”

    Xu Zhiyi belatedly remembered that the interrupted topic was about divorce.

    Now, she was unwilling to ask further, “Just now… I wanted to ask you how much you remember about your school days.”

    The improvised lie was lame.

    “Well, let me think.”

    The woman didn’t seem to notice her embarrassment. She thought seriously for a moment and then slowly said, “What impressed me most is that I had a stomach problem and you went to the hospital to take care of me.”

    It took me a full month to take care of her.

    “I can only sneak out after self-study in the evening.” Xu Zhiyi couldn’t help but interjected, “After knowing that you were hospitalized, I took notes in class seriously so that you could get a good review. Who knew you didn’t need it at all!”

    Speaking of this, the figure of the other party who was firmly ranked first in the grade appeared in front of her eyes, and the corners of her lips could not help but curl up slightly.

    Probably because of Yourong.

    Although her grades are not bad, they are hardly top-notch.For this reason, she often asked Pei Qingyan for advice, but unfortunately his learning method was too abstract – it all relied on comprehension.

    “I secretly read while you were asleep, so of course my scores were high.”

    Pei Qingyan explained without changing his expression, but was slapped.

    “Didn’t we squeeze into the same hospital bed?”

    Xu Zhiyi originally wanted to say that if she turned on the light, she should have noticed it.Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the narrow smile in the woman’s eyes, and she suddenly realized that she had been tricked again.

    “Yes, a bed.” The woman answered in time, with a pleasant tone, “You should treat me as a friend by then.”

    “Well, you said you tend to have nightmares at night, so I stayed with you.”

    Xu Zhiyi still remembered the way the other party looked pale and held on to the corner of her clothes.At that time, she thought that she could never leave him alone.

    “So, you were trying to trick me?”

    “Not entirely.” The woman deliberately approached her and threw the question back, “Do you still consider me your friend now?”

    The breath is close at hand, and the expectation in the tone is clear.

    But Xu Zhiyi didn’t intend to follow her words, she was still thinking about the half-truth and half-false routine.Unexpectedly, the woman directly unbuttoned the first button of her collar and blew gently, “Did you sleep with your ‘friend’ last night?”

    The hickeys were so densely packed that the beautiful collarbone was stained red, which was a solid proof.

    Xu Zhiyi had nowhere to hide, her cheeks were slightly hot from her fiery gaze, and she whispered, “I have considered you more than just a friend a long time ago.”

    The reward is a kiss as soft and sweet as marshmallows.

    Feeling the opponent’s insatiable attack, Xu Zhiyi thought dizzy that she might have been tricked again.

    There is no way to escape.

    Fortunately, Pei Qingyan took into account that he had tortured her too much last night, so he took the opportunity to plant a strawberry on her neck, closed his mouth in time, and fell asleep with her arms around her.

    The two of them stayed in the house throughout the afternoon and rarely went out. At most, Xu Zhiyi asked the servant to bring afternoon tea.

    This peace and quiet lasted until seven o’clock in the evening.

    “Knock knock knock!”

    There was a polite knock on the door, and Pei Qingyan immediately closed the tablet and turned his questioning eyes to his wife.

    “Let’s go.”

    Xu Zhiyi took a deep breath and took the initiative to hold her in his arms.

    Strangely enough, the moment she met Pei Qingyan, she seemed to have found a stable landing point, and her heartbeat returned to normal, which made the thoughts in her mind even more determined:

    This time, she wanted to draw a clear line between herself and this family.
