"He doesn't need my company." Qiao Rui said calmly.

"So, the eldest sister took advantage of the situation." Qiao Yufei said angrily: "Have you always been so stupid?"

"No, I'm so smart, how could I be stupid?" Qiao Rui said with a half-smile.

She didn't think she was stupid, but to others it sounded like she was overestimating her abilities. She was obviously stupid, but she was self-righteous at the same time.

Qiao Rui can also see into everyone's thoughts.

For example, Qiao Yufei's mood at the moment must be very complicated. After being rejected by Pei Liyan last time at Pei's house, she may have given up.

Now I see Qiao Xiang rushing forward, but I don't want Qiao Xiang to benefit.

Therefore, Qiao Yufei reminds herself here, hoping that she can catch Pei Liyan and let Qiao Xiang take advantage of him.

But Qiao Rui feels that the girls in the Qiao family look smart, but in fact everyone is quite stupid.

Instead of trying to capture a man's heart, it's better to be yourself.

Why does a beautiful girl have to capture a man's heart?

At least she never thought so.

Besides, can any woman catch a man like Pei Liyan?

If you don't do it, your whole army will be wiped out, let alone capture people's hearts.

Seeing what Qiao Rui said, Qiao Yufei immediately reminded her righteously: "Don't give me that playful smile. I'm telling you, if you get kicked by Pei Liyan, you will cry sometimes."

"That's what the second sister said." Qiao Rui smiled. "I also think that I will be miserable in the future, and he will definitely kick me."

"So try your best to prevent him from kicking you."

"Second sister, I'm not a beautiful woman, so it's useless to try hard."

"That can't be snatched away by others." Qiao Yufei warned seriously: "At least while you are still Mrs. Pei, you must seize this opportunity."

Qiao Rui only thinks that Qiao Yufei is quite funny. She was the first one to show up to make things difficult for her, but now she has switched sides only a few days ago.

The tide is turning too fast.

"Thank you, second sister, for reminding me." Qiao Rui showed a sincere smile.

Qiao Yufei rolled her eyes at her. "Don't thank me, just serve some snacks."

Qiao Rui nodded, like a primary school student, serious and pious: "Okay, I will work hard."

Qiao Yufei was then satisfied and urged: "Hurry up and go into the house to guard your husband, do you hear me?"

"Oh, okay." Qiao Rui cursed in her heart, there was really no pure land at all.

She hurried into the house.

At this time, I happened to see Pei Liyan and Qiao Xiang going downstairs together.

She was at the gate and looked up to see the two of them.

Pei Liyan frowned when he saw her.

Mr. Qiao is still sitting on the sofa.

"Qiao Rui, where are you going?" Pei Liyan stood on the stairs and asked.

As soon as he spoke, he immediately became the focus of the audience.

And Qiao Rui was also implicated and became the focus.

"Oh, I just went out for a while!" Qiao Rui had no choice but to say bravely.

"Did you say what I asked you to say to Mr. Qiao?" Pei Liyan asked again, his voice neither fast nor slow, and everyone in the room could hear it.

"I told you." Qiao Rui said.

Mr. Qiao also spoke at this time: "Li Yan, are you asking Qiao Rui to tell me about the room arrangements? This is the negligence of our Qiao family."

"Mr. Qiao can't arrange such a small thing well. If this is a big thing, wouldn't it be even worse?" Pei Liyan's tone was cold, with obvious displeasure.

Mr. Qiao was stunned for a moment and pursed his lips, "Li Yan is right, I accept your criticism."

Pei Liyan said nothing more and walked down the stairs, not caring about Qiao Xiang beside him.

He walked straight towards Qiao Rui. When he got there, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards the previous location.

Everyone was stunned, and everyone looked at the two of them with complicated eyes.

This situation seemed to be beyond everyone's expectations. No one expected that Pei Liyan would hold Qiao Rui's hand in public.

Did he choose Qiao Rui because he liked Qiao Rui?

This is unscientific.

The man's big hand held his wrist tightly, and the place where the skin touched was like an electric current, which was hot and transmitted to all his limbs at once.

Qiao Rui was a little embarrassed and raised her eyes subconsciously.

Qiao Xiang also walked to where she was sitting before and was about to sit down.

Pei Liyan said, "I'm sorry, Qiao Xiang, you'd better sit somewhere else. It's more appropriate for Qiao Rui to sit next to me."

For a moment, Qiao Xiang was shocked by electricity.

Pei Liyan is embarrassing himself in public.

This scene also made Mr. Qiao frown slightly.

He didn't speak, just looked.

Qiao Rui also glanced at Qiao Xiang, and her face turned pale when she saw her embarrassment.

She subconsciously looked at Pei Liyan.

There was warning in the man's eyes, and Qiao Rui didn't dare to speak.

The next second, the man pushed Qiao Rui onto the sofa and sat down next to her.

At this time, Qiao Xiang stood beside the two of them like a superfluous person.

No matter how you look at these three people, they feel very strange.

Country bumpkin Qiao Rui and Pei Liyan are not a good match at all. Sitting together is like the master with a low-class maid beside him. However, Qiao Xiang is the real master, but he is not liked by men.

Seeing this scene, Qiao Yufei said: "Sister, Sixth Sister and Mr. Pei are husband and wife, and they should sit together, so don't join in the fun there."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Qiao Xiang turned to look at her, with warning in his eyes.

Qiao Yufei smiled and pretended not to see it.

At this time, Mr. Qiao said: "You all should go about your own business. Li Yan and Qiao Rui will stay with me to have dinner at noon."

The old man's meaning was obvious. Everyone went about their business, and only Qiao Rui and Pei Liyan could stay for dinner.

Qiao Xiang looked at the old man subconsciously.

Mr. Qiao said: "Qiao Xiang, you are also busy with your work."

Qiao Xiang paused, feeling unwilling, but still said: "Yes, Grandpa!"

So, during lunch time, only Mr. Qiao entertained Pei Liyan and Qiao Rui.

The food was quite sumptuous.

Mr. Qiao looked at Pei Liyan and Qiao Rui several times and kept observing the two people.

Pei Liyan's face was calm, he had already seen all this in his eyes, and faced the old man calmly.

Finally, the old man mentioned the 500 million.

"Li Yan, regarding the project I told you yesterday about the 500 million capital injection, how have you considered it?"

Pei Liyan smiled slightly, "Grandpa, Qiao Rui said that you can't inject capital into the Qiao family, and there shouldn't be any financial exchanges between relatives."

Mr. Qiao's face suddenly darkened, he was a little sullen, and he looked at Qiao Rui displeased. "Qiao Rui, what did you say?"

Qiao Rui knew that Pei Liyan would not really defend himself, so now the secret was exposed. He gave him a jujube first to taste the sweetness, and he would not feel so painful when he was beaten next time.

What a cunning man.

"Grandpa, I said it." Qiao Rui said frankly: "Mr. Pei is also very poor and can't afford five hundred million. He is embarrassed to tell you. I will make a deal with you."
