195 She Had Many Things She Wanted To Give Li Xiwu
Li Xiwu didnât deliberately suppress a smile. âHow are you adjusting to the new school?â
Pei Youâan nodded. âIâm used to it. Iâm especially used to it. Iâm good at everything I learn, thereâs nothing I canât learn.â
Li Xiwu nodded in agreement. âItâs not impossible.â
Li Xiwu even approved of his bragging! So if one were to ask why Pei Youâan liked Li Xiwu so much. This was one of the reasons. He was really very happy to be encouraged!
Han Qianye asked, âWhereâs your brother?â
Pei Youâan took the time to answer Han Qianye. âI didnât see my brother when I came back.â
Han Qianye said, âSo heâs not back yet.â As she spoke, Han Qianye turned to look at Li Xiwu. âWhy donât you call Jingzhou and ask when heâll be back?â
Li Xiwu remembered that Han Qianye had told her everything she asked just now. Now that it was a small suggestion, she naturally wouldnât refuse to say she wouldnât call. So she nodded in agreement. âOkay.â
Seeing that Li Xiwu had agreed, Han Qianye thought with relief that if she often called her daughter-in-law and son back for dinner, their relationship would definitely get better and better. Why would she get a divorce? Li Xiwu would always be the daughter-in-law of the Pei family, the only public Mrs. Pei in the aristocratic circle.
Han Qianye did not delay Li Xiwuâs call and pulled Pei Youâan away.
Pei Youâan said, âMom, wait a minute. Iâm not done yet.â
Han Qianye knew her youngest sonâs character too well. âWith your mouth, you wonât be able to finish talking for three days and three nights. Go away.â
Pei Youâan: ââ¦â
Li Xiwu went to the side and dialed Pei Jingzhouâs number. After waiting for about ten seconds, the other party picked up. Li Xiwu asked, âFourth Brother, are you still busy?â
Pei Jingzhou said, âMhm.â
Li Xiwu pursed her lips. âWhen will you return to the Pei residence for dinner?â Her tone sounded like a routine.
Pei Jingzhou answered her, âIâm in the study on the fourth floor. Iâm talking to Dad.â
Li Xiwu was stunned. âFourth Brother, youâre back?â
Pei Jingzhou said, âMhm.â
She had thought that Pei Jingzhou was busy at the company, but it turned out that he had already returned. She and Han Qianye had been in the dollhouse, so she naturally did not know when he had returned.
Pei Jingzhou asked her, âDownstairs?â
Li Xiwu said yes.
Pei Jingzhou said, âIâm coming down.â
Less than a minute after the call ended, the elevator door opened and Pei Jingzhou walked out. His gaze swept over and stopped on Li Xiwu as he walked towards her.
Li Xiwu put away her phone and shouted, âFourth Brother.â
Pei Jingzhou naturally held her hand and walked towards the dining room. âDo you like the dollhouse?â
Li Xiwu smiled brightly. âWhy do you ask, Fourth Brother?â
Pei Jingzhou said, âYouâve been inside for a long time.â
It turned out that he still knew that she and Han Qianye had been staying in the dollhouse. However, she naturally could not mention what she had chatted with Han Qianye in the dollhouse because from the various signs, Pei Jingzhou should be afraid that she knew something.
She replied briskly, âThose dolls are beautiful. I canât take my eyes off almost any of them.â
Pei Jingzhou glanced sideways. âDo you like it?â
Li Xiwu knew what Pei Jingzhou meant by this question. âI like it, but I donât necessarily have to have it. I can just return to the Pei residence to admire it occasionally. I donât have time to take care of it myself.â
Pei Jingzhou said, âYou can come back often.â
Li Xiwu laughed it off.
â
Tonightâs dinner was the most complete dinner in the Pei residence in recent years. Not only was it complete, but it was also lively.
Han Qianye kept serving Li Xiwu dishes, wanting to stuff all the delicious food into Li Xiwuâs bowl. Li Xiwu would only eat 70% full at night, but she was very full tonight. There might be extra.
She could not refuse Han Qianyeâs kindness.
Pei Qingji held his wine glass and said to his eldest son, âIf you leave your wife at home for ten days to half a month, she will definitely gain weight.â
Pei Jingzhou said, âIf she doesnât like it, sheâll reject it directly unless sheâs willing.â
Pei Qingji smiled. âSpeaking of which, itâs really magical. The previous mother-in-law and daughter-in-law variety show was bad. So I thought that you would be single again from now on after this seasonâs variety show.â
Pei Jingzhou: ââ¦â
Pei Jingzhou raised his wine glass to Pei Qingji. âDadâs worries are unnecessary. I wonât be a bachelor even if youâre a bachelor.â
Pei Qingji scolded jokingly, âBrat.â
The atmosphere in the dining room was very warm. Until Pei Youâan suddenly asked Han Qianye, âMom, are you happy on this show?â
Han Qianye replied sincerely, âIâm happy.â
Pei Youâan asked again, âThen why do I see everyone online saying that youâre brainless?â
The moment Pei Youâan finished speaking, all the voices at the dining table disappeared. Other than Han Qianye, everyone else looked at Pei Youâan.
Pei Youâan asked, âWhy are you all looking at me?â
Pei Jiao placed her hand to her lips and coughed lightly. âBrother, compared to you, I realize that my mouth is alright.â
Pei Youâan was just asking out of curiosity. Soon, he would pay for his curiosity.
After dinner.
Pei Youâan hugged Pei Qingjiâs leg and wailed. âDad! My biological father! Itâs not easy for me to go to school. There are many places to spend money in Lancas. Itâs fine if Mom stops Pei Jiaoâs pocket money, but if you stop my pocket money too, how am I going to live in the future?â
Pei Qingji was expressionless. âSelling shoes.â
...
Pei Youâan shouted, âWhat? Selling blood?â
Pei Qingji seemed to be motionless.
Pei Youâan continued to wail. âDad, Iâm your biological son. How dare you ask me to sell my blood to survive? You might as well drain my blood at once.â
Han Qianye, who was passing by, leaned over and patted Pei Youâanâs head kindly. âAlright, Iâll make a mummy out of you and put it in the museum at my own expense. A thousand years later, youâll definitely be the most valuable mummy.â
Pei Youâan: ââ¦â
With that, Han Qianye left elegantly.
Pei Qingji kicked his legs. âRascal, why didnât you offend anyone else but your mother? If youâre not unlucky, who is?â
Pei Youâan: Sobs!
Pei Jiao, who was passing by, looked at Pei Youâan, who was sitting pitifully on the ground. She squatted down and placed her hand on Pei Youâanâs shoulder. She comforted him, âMom is not lying to you. If youâre made into a mummy and left for thousands of years, it will indeed be very valuable. I remember that there was an auction in Nigeria some time ago. A mummy cost more than 80 million yuan.â
Pei Youâan said, âItâs easier said than done.â
Pei Jiao said, âNonsense. Iâm clearly squatting and talking to you.â
...
Pei Youâan: ââ¦â
A monthâs worth of money was gone just like that. He did not have much savings to plan ahead. He was probably really going to sell his shoes!
After dinner, Li Xiwu wanted to take a walk outside.
Han Qianye felt that it was cold outside and wanted Li Xiwu to stay inside. Actually, she still had many strange things that she had not shown Li Xiwu, such as the jewelry room that was bigger than a dollhouse, the new clothes room that was bigger than a jewelry room.
She had a lot of things she wanted to give Li Xiwu.
