    Chapter 72

    “What, broke it…”

    Xu Zhiyi’s face turned red with embarrassment because of his words, and he lay in the woman’s arms unwilling to get up, “I told you to be gentle——”

    A sound the size of a mosquito is inaudible.

    “Okay, pay attention next time.”

    Pei Qingyan held her face, kissed her from the corners of her eyes to her chin, then lowered her head and nibbled gently on her collarbone, as if she couldn’t get enough.

    From the corner of his eye, he saw his wife’s slender legs shaking slightly, and he couldn’t help asking considerately, “Shall we go back?”

    “No, it just came out not long ago.”

    Xu Zhiyi obviously noticed the other person’s gaze, pinched her angrily, and said angrily, “It’s all your fault.”

    “Yes, it’s all my fault that my wife couldn’t stand because of my lack of restraint.” The woman happily followed her words, then unexpectedly lifted her up and picked a dry rock to sit on.

    The moonlight was clear, and the rustling sound of the rolling waves came with the sea breeze, making the night not as silent as stagnant water.

    Xu Zhiyi found a comfortable position in the woman’s arms. The faint scent of sandalwood on the tip of her nose made her relax instinctively, “Ayan, what are your plans for tomorrow?”

    “I listen to my wife.” The woman replied without thinking, lowering her head and rubbing the corner of her lips again and again.

    “Well, I want to see other parts of the island.”

    ——You can’t say that you want to be with the other person all the time, right?She raised her eyes slightly and looked into the woman’s bright and gentle eyes, and the tips of her ears began to feel warm again.

    “By car or yacht?”

    “You carry me.”

    As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the woman say “Okay” with a smile, and the doting in her tone was so full that it almost overflowed.

    “I’m just kidding, Ayan.”

    Xu Zhiyi suddenly lost the arrogant and arrogant attitude just now, and grabbed the other party’s clothes and refused to let go, “How could I be willing to make you so tired…”

    “Carrying my wife is not tiring at all.” The woman rubbed her palm soothingly, “Which time have I not carried you on my back in the past? You are not used to it if you don’t let me carry you.”

    It’s okay not to mention this matter. When Xu Zhiyi mentioned the few times they went out together when they were studying, the scene where Xu Zhiyi repeatedly used coquettishness and threatened the other party to find a solution on the grounds that he couldn’t walk.

    It can be called her “dark history”, but obviously Pei Qingyan doesn’t think so.

    As the nominal “Second Miss Xu”, Xu Zhiyi’s life is not as smooth as it seems to outsiders.

    The Xu family could barely be considered a wealthy family, but her life was completely different from Xu Yunyun’s.

    Even for the autumn outing organized by the school, I have to wait for my parents to be in a good mood before speaking with trepidation, and I have to be prepared to be rejected outright.

    “When have you not asked us for money?” The adoptive mother sneered at this and never took her eyes away from the card table. “Which classmates are going?”

    Xu Zhiyi casually reported a few names. When she mentioned Pei Qingyan, her adoptive mother finally glanced at her between dealing cards:

    “Tsk, that heir of the Pei family…I heard he has a good relationship with you?”

    After she nodded hesitantly, the other party casually motioned to the housekeeper to pay her registration fee.The rest of the money was not paid out at all.

    “You are usually given living expenses, so you can figure it out on your own.”

    On the day of the autumn outing, she stood at the back of the queue with her unfilled bag.In front of her were classmates happily sharing snacks, and she couldn’t help but wonder whether it was a mistake to participate.

    “I found you.”

    My vision was in vain shrouded in shadow.She looked up blankly and saw the wet sweat on Pei Qingyan’s forehead and a very large backpack.

    Noticing her gaze, the other party naturally held her hand, with joy in his eyes, “I don’t have any snacks I want to eat, so I just grabbed some dried fruits you like. Do you want to try them?”

    “…Hmm.”

    Xu Zhiyi responded softly.

    Girls are always very sensitive.She felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that she came to participate because of the other party.

    However, looking at Pei Qingyan’s eager and focused eyes, she felt that her mind was messy and extremely complicated.

    ——You shouldn’t take out your anger on someone who treats her sincerely.The truth was clear, but it felt like a rain cloud had accumulated in her heart, so heavy that there was nowhere to resolve it.

    She lingered all the way to the bottom of the mountain without thinking about how to face him.

    Pei Qingyan, on the other hand, was racking his brains to find topics all the way, but he was not discouraged when he saw her lack of interest.

    “We still need to set up a tent at night, but we don’t need to do anything…Are you feeling uncomfortable?”

    “No.”

    Xu Zhiyi had no intention of responding to her temptation and lowered his eyes, “If you want to win over the Xu family, you should find my sister.”

    “What?” The other party didn’t seem to respond.

    “I am nothing in the Xu family. It doesn’t matter how close you are to me.”

    She said self-defeatingly, not daring to observe the other party’s reaction.

    Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, I heard a loud rebuttal:

    “I never wanted to win over the Xu family from the beginning, never. As for your sister, I don’t even know there is such a person, and I don’t want to know her.”

    Pei Qingyan was rarely emotional. He looked at her with anger and helplessness, “I just want…”

    The following sentence suddenly got stuck and turned into a muffled “Forget it.”

    “I’m sorry, Ayan, I shouldn’t have lost my temper at you.”

    Xu Zhiyi originally wanted to comfort the other person, but before she could say a few words, her eyes turned red and she buried herself in the other person’s arms and sobbed softly.

    “What’s wrong? Someone is bullying you?” Pei Qingyan quietly clenched her fists, her tone still gentle.

    “My mother only let me sign up when she knew you were participating.”

    She felt like there was a hole in her heart, and she was filled with grievances pouring out, “It doesn’t matter to them what I do, all my thoughts are spent on my sister. It’s like…”

    Dispensable.

    There was a gentle touch in the corner of his eyes.She stared blankly at Pei Qingyan, who was clumsily wiping her tears, and the words that followed gradually fell into silence.

    My heart seemed to be beating hard, and it was sour yet sweet.

    “You still have me.”

    There was a suppressed emotional whisper in the ear, “I will always be with you.”

    After being coaxed by the other party for a while, Xu Zhiyi felt that his ups and downs gradually calmed down.As if by magic, all the accumulated sadness seemed to disappear in the blink of an eye.

    “Thank you, Ayan.” She solemnly thanked the other party, but ignored the flash of disappointment in his eyes.

    “It’s okay.”

    Pei Qingyan pretended to be relaxed and changed the subject, “Are you tired? If you are, I will carry you.”

    “Kind of.”

    Full of dependence, Xu Zhiyi stretched out his hand to her and lay on her back.

    “So light.”

    After taking two steps, Pei Qingyan sighed seemingly unintentionally, “It’s not as heavy as my backpack.”

    “Then it will be better if you memorize it more.”

    Xu Zhiyi said it casually, but received a “Okay” with a smile.

    “How is it possible? What should I do if you are tired?” She explained hurriedly, taking a tissue to wipe her sweat, “I will feel bad.”

    In the blind spot of her vision, she didn’t see the corners of the other party’s lips that couldn’t stop raising.
