Chapter 1440
"not good."
Pei Yanzhou kissed the back of her snow-white neck, "I don't want to be ridden by you like a horse every time."
"..."
Cheng Xi reacted, and her cheeks turned red in the dark.
Stinking rogue.
She cursed inwardly.
But after such a fuss, a lot of the uneasiness in each other's hearts was dissipated.
...
In the next few days, Cheng Xi rarely saw Pei Yanzhou except when sleeping at night.
He often travels between hospitals and companies.
On the contrary, when Pei's father and Pei's mother heard that the engagement was going to be postponed, Pei's father almost wanted to beat his son to death with a cane.
"Pei Yanzhou, you are almost 30 years old. Do you treat your engagement as a family affair? You are the one who is clamoring for the engagement. Now I have told my relatives and friends at home about the date. I have booked the hotel and the banquet. But you told me to delay it.”
"Dad, I can't... I am happily engaged while my aunt is undergoing surgery. My spine will be stabbed in pain."
Pei Yanzhou explained helplessly, "Besides, it's only postponed for half a month."
"Cheng Xi is willing?" Father Pei asked.
"We discussed it."
Father Pei sneered, "Cheng Xi has a good temper."
Pei Yanzhou:? ? ?
I don’t know who was saying that Cheng Xi had a bad temper at home a while ago.
"She has a good temper and is very reasonable." Pei Yanzhou added.
"I'm free to do whatever you want. You can get engaged whenever you like. But I'll say it first. In the eyes of our older generation, it's not a good thing to change the scheduled dates." Father Pei snorted coldly, Too lazy to pay attention to him.
Pei Yanzhou frowned.
He didn't believe it.
It was just postponed for half a month. After half a month, he and Cheng Xi would definitely be able to hold the wedding as scheduled.
Unless Cheng Xi loses the lawsuit.
But...how is this possible.
I was a little worried after all.
Just in case.
Pei Yanzhou once again called several top lawyers over for a meeting.
Lawyer Jiang, who was in charge of the case, said, "Jia Zhaoping's wife recently took her daughter and family abroad to celebrate the New Year. She has obviously given up on Jia Zhaoping. If Jia Zhaoping doesn't want to go to jail for the rest of his life, he should know what to say in court."
Pei Yanzhou asked, "Make sure there won't be any accidents?"
Lawyer Jiang and the remaining two lawyers looked at each other, and one of the female lawyers said, "As long as these witnesses answer the questions and insist that Jia Zhaoping is suspected of actively hurting others, there should be no problem."
"You mean that if one of the witnesses testifies against Cheng Xi, the case will change?" Pei Yanzhou asked in a deep voice.
Lawyer Jiang nodded, "The judge in charge of this case is a man. He is older, upright and conservative. I have checked the three self-defense injury cases he handled before, and he was convicted of self-defense in two of them. over."
Pei Yanzhou leaned against the back of his chair, his handsome and deep brows furrowed tightly.
...
It’s the end of the year in a blink of an eye.
