Emperor Shao's exclusive sweet wife

It was already evening when Qiao Ran arrived in the suburbs, and Pei Xianglin was eating. Seeing Qiao Ran coming, she asked calmly, "Have you eaten? Do you want to eat together?"

Her eyes are very calm, and her words are very gentle, which is very different from the previous confrontation.

This made Qiao Ran dazed for a moment.

Asking Yang Yue to wait for him at the door, Qiao Ran entered the dining room and sat down opposite Pei Xianglin.

The dishes on the table are very simple, and naturally they can't compare with the past at home, but Pei Xianglin has never been picky about food, and the food is quite delicious.

Qiao Ran just watched her eat, even though the servant handed over the bowls and chopsticks, Qiao Ran did not move.

Pei Xianglin then ignored her and ate on her own.

She didn't eat much, she finished eating soon, but she didn't leave, she just sat at the dining table and asked the servant to come and clean up the dishes.

Amidst the sound of tableware colliding, she looked at Qiao Ran and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of coming to see me today?"

There was no harsh tone in these words, just like a common greeting between friends.

Qiao Ran narrowed her eyes, "It seems that we haven't talked so calmly before."

is not that right?In the past, when they talked, they always held guns and sticks with sticks, and neither of them wanted to make the other feel better.

Pei Xianglin smiled, "Yeah, it's ridiculous to think about the past."

She shook her head, as if mocking herself.

After a while, Pei Xianglin lowered her voice: "By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet on your engagement with Junbei."

Qiao Ran was really surprised now.

She never thought that Pei Xianglin would congratulate her for this incident. After all, Pei Xianglin also liked Chu Junbei. She always felt that according to Pei Xianglin's personality, she would yell at her.

After all, Pei Xianglin wanted her life before.

After a while, without hearing Qiao Ran's voice, Pei Xianglin said with a smile: "The previous things are over, I know you still blame me, but...it doesn't matter, I have seen it very clearly now, no matter what , Junbei will not like me."

Pei Xianglin said this very relievedly: "I used to think that as long as I worked harder and put my heart into it, Junbei would be able to see my goodness and accept me, but then I realized that it wasn't."

She looked at Qiao Ran, word by word, very firmly, but also sadly: "The person he likes is you, no matter what I do, it's useless, even if I change one that looks exactly like you Faces are useless."

She smiled bitterly and said, "After all, I'm not you."

Qiao Ran pursed her lips and said nothing.

She didn't know what kind of emotion could make a person think like that - put on another person's face - it was horrible.

However, what Pei Xianglin did before was similar to this.

"During the time when grandpa locked me up, I thought a lot and reflected a lot. I really did too many stupid things for a man who didn't love me." Pei Xianglin smiled wryly and kept Sighing, "Actually, think about it carefully, Chu Junbei doesn't like me at all, so what if I do more things for him?"

Looking at Pei Xianglin like this, Qiao Ran felt more and more unfamiliar.

She had never seen Pei Xianglin like this.

In the past, Pei Xianglin was always aloof, looking down on her, despising her, and always put herself in a very high position.

But today, Pei Xianglin admitted her place in Chu Junbei's heart.

Never, she never had a place in Chu Junbei's heart.

Everyone knows this kind of thing, but it is difficult for her to admit it.

After a while, Qiao Ran moved her lips: "Cousin, actually I've been wanting to ask you... If it wasn't for Junbei, would you have done those things to me?"

This is what she cares more about.

If Pei Xianglin would hurt her just because of Chu Junbei, that's okay.

But if Pei Xianglin would kill her even if it wasn't for Chu Junbei, or for something else, that would be terrifying.

Pei Xianglin lowered her head, wondering if she was still thinking about what was going on. After a while, she raised her head and asked in a daze, "What are you talking about?"

Qiao Ran was still thinking about whether to repeat what she said just now, so Pei Xianglin asked her again:
"You are my younger sister...Although since you came home, grandpa has not treated me as well as before... To be honest, Qiao Ran, I really hate you. I used to be the most favored one in the family. I said that grandpa always depends on me, but after you came back, everything changed."

Qiao Ran looked at the person in front of her, not knowing what to say for a while.

But Pei Xianglin continued to talk: "But no matter what, you are my aunt's daughter... When I was young, my aunt hugged me."

She gradually became sad, "Although I was young at that time, I vaguely remember the way my aunt hugged me and sang me a lullaby... I hate you, but I also remember that your mother is my father's sister... ..."

"It's all Chu Junbei!" Pei Xianglin raised her voice, "If I hadn't been fascinated by him, I wouldn't have done these things!"

Qiao Ran: "..."

Why are you blaming Chu Junbei for what you did yourself?
Although she was a little dissatisfied with this, Qiao Ran still felt a little comforted in her heart.

At the very least, Pei Xianglin still remembered that they were relatives, and she still remembered how Pei Rong sang her a lullaby when she was a child.

Thinking of her mother, Qiao Ran couldn't help curling her lips.

She didn't stay in the villa for long, and returned home soon.

On the way back, she bumped into Pei Hao who was about to go out. Qiao Ran was still wondering, "What's wrong? Brother, you still want to go out when it's dark? Did something happen?"

Pei Hao stopped his steps, looked a little more relaxed, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you haven't come back for so long, I'm a little worried and want to find you."

"What's there to worry about? Yang Yue is following me." Qiao Ran told Yang Yue to get off work.

Pei Hao hurriedly asked again: "How is Pei Xianglin? She didn't do anything to you, did she?"

Qiao Ran shook her head, and pulled Pei Hao inside, "Come on, let's go in and talk."

Pei Hao was also in the living room. When he saw Qiao Ran coming back, he naturally smiled. He looked several years younger.

"Ran Ran is back? Just right, we can eat now."

Qiao Ran was surprised: "Grandpa, you haven't eaten yet at this late hour?"

"Grandpa said he would wait for you." Pei Hao said as he led Qiao Ran towards the dining room.

During the meal, Qiao Ran told Mr. Pei about Pei Xianglin. She didn't have any personal feelings, but just told Mr. Pei and Pei Hao about the conversation with Pei Xianglin.

Finally, Qiao Ran said: "Grandpa, it's not okay to lock up my cousin like this all the time. You have to let her out and give an explanation to the people in the company."

Although Pei Ping is not in the company now, he still has power. If those people do something, it may be very troublesome.

Qiao Ran knew this, Pei Hao knew it, and Mr. Pei knew it even more.

But if Pei Xianglin were to be released just like that, Mr. Pei felt uneasy again.

After thinking for a while, Old Pei said: "Well, I'll go and see tomorrow. If Xianglin really changes, I'll let her out."

After all, she is also her own granddaughter. After being imprisoned for so long, Mr. Pei actually couldn't bear it.

The next morning, Mr. Pei really went to a villa in the suburbs. He stayed there for a long time and didn't come out until almost noon.

When she came out, Pei Xianglin followed behind her.

Pei Xianglin was brought back home. During the time she was locked up, Pei Xianglin lost a lot of weight. After returning home, she took a shower, changed her clothes, and put on some makeup. When she went downstairs, Mrs. Pei was in the living room .

Seeing that Pei Xianglin had redressed, Mr. Pei asked, "Xianglin, are you going out?"

"Yes, Grandpa, I'm going to the company." Pei Xianglin said with a shallow smile, "Didn't you tell me what's going on in the company? I have to show up and tell everyone that I'm back from abroad."

What she said was completely based on the news that Mr. Pei had released before.

Elder Pei stood up from the sofa with a cane in both hands, "I happen to be going to the company too, let's go together."

Pei Xianglin lowered her eyebrows and came to help Mr. Pei.

She knew in her heart that Mr. Pei actually didn't need to go to the company, but because she was worried about her, and she was afraid that she would talk nonsense in the company and cause commotion, so she wanted to go and watch.

She understood these things, but she didn't say anything. After arriving at the company, she behaved well, saying that she had been abroad with Pei Ping for a while, and came back after finishing the foreign affairs.

Not only that, but she also asked the company to issue a statement, denying the fact that she was imprisoned, which had been rumored before, and said that she would pursue legal responsibility for the rumor makers.

In the evening, Pei Chengqi also went home and had a reunion dinner.

At the dinner table, Pei Xianglin was more restrained than before. Although Pei Chengqi was still in the same tone, he didn't bother Qiao Ran anymore, and he ate a meal in an amicable manner.

After eating, Pei Chengqi and Pei Xianglin went to the backyard.

"It's finally come out, congratulations." Pei Chengqi said with a faint smile.

The moon is good tonight, with soft luster shining on the earth, but it is windy and a bit cold in the yard.

Pei Xianglin didn't feel cold at all, she looked at Pei Chengqi with a smile, "Brother, your solution is better."

"You have to thank Ruiyu." Pei Chengqi said, "If he hadn't gone to Qiao Ran to speak for you, you wouldn't have come out so early."

Pei Xianglin nodded, "Yes, I have to thank him."

In the past, she was too naive. She always thought that Chu Junbei was the best and most worthy of her, so she ignored many people.

But now she understands that it is better to find someone who loves herself but doesn't love her than to find someone she loves but doesn't love herself.

At the very least, those who love themselves will pamper themselves on the tip of their hearts, but the former will not.

Picking her fingers, Pei Xianglin asked, "By the way, Chu Junbei has been abroad for so long, why hasn't he come back yet?"

Pei Chengqi didn't answer, but asked her instead: "Why, you still can't let him go?"

"No, it's just pure curiosity." Pei Xianglin pointed her chin with her fingertips and looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky. The cold wind made her long hair flutter. Under the moonlight, the shadows on the ground were graceful and messy. , "You said, will something happen to him in the United States? Will he die?"

Pei Chengqi laughed, but remained silent.

He really hoped that Chu Junbei was dead.
