Chapter 23
Pei Yanzhou looked down at the little woman in front of him. Her baby-fat little face was bulging with anger, and her whole face was indescribably vivid.
However, he suddenly felt a little unhappy.
Why is this woman more active in getting divorced than herself?
In the past, many ladies tried their best to attract his attention.
"If the police come to the door, you can divorce me. If word spreads, our Pei family can't afford to be embarrassed." Pei Yanzhou untied the tie around his neck angrily.
"Oh," Cheng Xi suddenly realized, "You are probably afraid that the news that I was wrongly accused of stealing things will become a joke."
Pei Yanzhoujun's face sank, and the embarrassment in his deep eyes flashed away, "You stay here for now and wait for a while before getting divorced."
"Oh, no." Cheng Xi looked embarrassed, "Look, I'm so poor and greedy for money. What if something falls in your study and you say I stole it?"
Pei Yanzhou choked, and his handsome face turned several degrees colder, "Cheng Xi, you can't get over this hurdle, can you?"
"No."
Cheng Xi sat on the chair and looked at him seriously with a frown, "I really don't like staying here. I don't like your whole family. Your family dislikes the poor and loves the rich, bullies the weak, and is domineering."
Pei Yanzhou's anger that he had finally suppressed burst out, "Cheng Xi, do you think our family likes you very much? You don't know how to respect your elders, you are sharp-tongued, and you are arrogant."
Cheng Xi nodded and spread his hands indifferently: "If you don't like it, just don't like it. I don't care about it."
"..."
What does it mean that a dead pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water? Pei Yanzhou has really seen it.
Arguing with this kind of woman is like hitting the cotton with your fist.
I don’t know where his grandfather found a strange woman to get engaged to him.
Pei Yanzhou pinched his brows and changed the subject, "My dad asked me to take you out to live. What do you think?"
"That won't work." Cheng Xi shook his head decisively, "Have you ever heard of the saying that the fragrance is far away and the smell is close? I must stay here and make your parents hate me deeply, otherwise how can I divorce you?"
Although Pei Yanzhou thought so too, Cheng Xi's attitude of wanting to divorce him immediately made him quite depressed.
"It's okay to make my parents hate you, but you have to be careful not to use too much force. My dad has a heart disease and my mom has high blood pressure. Don't make them angry."
Cheng Xi was stunned.
Unexpectedly, the old couple of the Pei family have quite a lot of problems.
You really need to be careful about this. If something goes wrong, maybe even the Cheng family will be buried with him.
It's so annoying.
Seeing Cheng Xi in distress, Pei Yanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly.
Very good, this damn girl finally has something to worry about.
Not long after, the nanny came up and asked the two of them to have dinner.
"Okay, here we come."
Cheng Xi touched his stomach. He was really hungry. He must have been having a battle of wits and courage with these people today. It was too tiring.
Pei Yanzhou just found it incredible, "You just had a fight with my parents, and you still have the nerve to go out for dinner?"
"Why am I embarrassed? It's not me who wronged others. It's you people who should be embarrassed." After Cheng Xi finished speaking, he confidently went downstairs to eat.
Pei Yanzhou was silent for a while. No matter how much he disliked Cheng Xi, he had to admit that he was really different from the women she had known before.
As for the difference, he was sure that the thickness of his skin was definitely different.
...
In the restaurant downstairs.
Father Pei and Mother Pei were already sitting down first.
Mother Pei sighed in a bad mood, "You shouldn't have asked me to come out to eat. Seeing Cheng Xi, I probably lost my appetite."
"You think too much, she may not go downstairs to eat." Father Pei comforted.
"That's true. We all had a quarrel with our whole family, so how could we come down here?"
