Li Xiwu sat with weak legs and feet, thinking about how to escape tonight.
She didn't want to have a relationship with Pei Jingzhou, but obviously, it was difficult for her to avoid it. Thinking about the past ten minutes, he had been very restrained...
"Li Xiwu."
Pei Jingzhou's voice came from outside the door, which brought Li Xiwu Shen Feitianwai's thoughts back, and she responded: "Huh?"
"Come out," he said.
It's not the tone of a command, but it's better than a command.
Li Xiwu didn't dare not listen, knowing that staying here wouldn't change anything, and he couldn't escape tonight.
Simply, she adjusted herself and calmly opened the door and came out.
Eyes facing each other.
The man was nearly 1.9 meters tall. His tall and majestic body stood in front of Li Xiwu, making Li Xiwu, who was 1.68 meters tall, look very petite.
"Has it been washed?" he asked.
Li Xiwu nodded and began to take off his nightgown.
Her movements are methodical, without nervousness or shyness, and she has the calmness that has been with her for a long time.
The straps of his nightgown were halfway untied, and Pei Jingzhou stretched out his hand.
Li Xiwu thought he was impatient, so he let him peel it off.
But the actual development was completely different from what she thought.
Pei Jingzhou tied the belt for her, took her wrist and walked to the big bed, lay down, tucked her in the quilt, and hugged her to sleep peacefully.
His legs were very long, slightly bent and resting on her body, but not pressing too much on him.
When he does it, he likes to wrap her in his arms, and when he doesn't do it, he also likes to wrap her in his arms in another way. He is very domineering, but Li Xiwu does not resist such domination, and will be very safe.
It feels like a dumpling being held in the palm of your hand.
"Mr. Pei." Li Xiwu called him out of breath.
"Don't want to sleep?" he asked.
The lights were not turned off, so the vision was very clear.
Li Xiwu said no, then cut to the topic: "There are still two months."
"What two months?"
I don't know if he really didn't think of it for a moment or if he didn't think of it on purpose, but Li Xiwu was more willing to believe it was the latter.
She has made up her mind to divorce as soon as possible and live her own life.
Just as he was thinking about it, Li Xiwu suddenly frowned and cried out in pain: "Mr. Pei, don't bite..."
"Does it hurt?"
"It hurts." She answered honestly.
"It's okay to know the pain."
"..."
Li Xiwu wanted to be angry with him, but felt that he was not qualified, so he had to stay silent.
"Are you free tomorrow?" he asked.
The sound came from above her head, making her look even smaller in his arms.
She pretended not to hear and ignored it.
He pinched her waist: "Li Xiwu, speak."
She was afraid, and said in a low voice, "No time."
"What about the day after tomorrow?"
"also not."
"When do you have time?" he asked patiently.
Li Xiwu said nothing: "Thursday."
"Then spare time on Thursday and go back to Pei's house for dinner."
"Okay." She responded obediently.
As a stand-in, you need to be self-conscious, and she has been very self-conscious in the past three years.
Except for the occasional tantrums, Pei Jingzhou would always tolerate her.
Until one time she mentioned that she wanted to go to country T with him, and his expression immediately changed.
…
The next day.
Li Xiwu was woken up by his mobile phone that vibrated frequently.
When she saw the name on the display, she hesitated and picked up: "Auntie."
The person who called was Han Qianye, Pei Jingzhou’s mother, and Li Xiwu’s current mother-in-law. Han Qianye was the most prestigious lady in the circle of ladies in the capital. Her natal family had a high-ranking background, and her husband was even more senior.
The Pei family is one of the richest families and everyone envies them.
Han Qianye on the other side of the phone explained a few words.
Li Xiwu responded: "I have time."
Finally he responded: "Okay, I will arrive on time."
After the call ended, she put down her phone and got up, put on her slippers and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When I went in, I almost bumped into Pei Jingzhou who came out.
Li Xiwu stepped back and turned sideways to let him come out first.
After Pei Jingzhou walked out, she went in.
They are a couple, more like roommates living together.
When Pei Jingzhou finished smoking a cigarette, Li Xiwu came out of the bathroom. He put out the cigarette butt in the stone and asked, "Where are you going?"
Li Xiwu looked at Pei Jingzhou who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a slightly surprised look: "Go to the company."
"I'll give it to you," he said.
Li Xiwu was even more surprised.
"Don't want to?" He came over.
When we met last night, he was wearing a bathrobe, sexy and charming.
This morning he had changed into formal clothes, a white shirt paired with a blue and black vertical striped business vest, neatly pressed trousers and vest of the same color, exuding endless charm in every move he made.
"It's the afternoon when I go to the company. I have other things to do in the morning." She had no intention of telling Pei Jingzhou about Han Qianye's appointment with her.
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has never been harmonious, and she handles it herself.
Pei Jingzhou looked at her quietly for a while, then walked forward, grabbed Li Xiwu's thin waist, and asked her in a low voice: "Are you unhappy?"
"How could Mr. Pei tell that I was unhappy?" she asked.
"It's written on your face."
"..."
Pei Jingzhou curled up his beautiful lips.
His face was inherently confounding. It was rare for anyone to see a smile on his face, and Li Xiwu was one of the few.
He let go of her, turned around, and went to the bar to get the gift he had brought back yesterday but had not had time to give to her.
He did not give it directly to Li Xiwu, but took out the package, opened the velvet box, took out the pigeon blood ruby ring inside, took Li Xiwu's hand, and put the ring firmly on Li Xiwu's index finger.
"Sunrise." She recognized the sky-high price ruby on the ring setting.
Pei Jingzhou admired it with satisfaction: "It's only suitable for you."
Li Xiwu did not refuse and said politely: "Thank you, Mr. Pei."
"Just thank you?" His voice was low, and his eyes dimmed a little when he looked at her.
Li Xiwu raised his head, stepped on his feet, and kissed him.
Although Li Xiwu took the initiative in this kiss, the dominant position still belonged to Pei Jingzhou. He was not happy, so he held her in his arms and kissed her, which was barely enough to make up for last night.
-
Leave the hotel.
Li Xiwu took off the pigeon blood ruby ring and put it away, then drove to 'Heti'.
Heti is a well-known beauty chain brand. It has unique beauty care techniques and advanced beauty equipment. It is a place where expensive ladies in Beijing circle often go to shop.
That's where Han Qianye met her today.
After parking, Li Xiwu went into Heti.
At that time, Han Qianye had just finished the Thermage medical cosmetology, and walked towards Li Xiwu with a slightly red and swollen face. She did not look at her face, but her ladylike demeanor remained intact.
"You are very good at telling time." Han Qianye sat down opposite Li Xiwu.
Heti's staff brought fruit platters and scented tea, and served Han Qianye attentively.
Li Xiwu pursed his lips: "What do you want from me?"
She didn't want to waste too much time here, so she went straight to the topic.
Han Qianye did not embarrass her and said directly: "Last time I gave you 80 million, but you didn't agree to divorce Jingzhou. This time I will be more generous and give you 200 million. After taking 200 million, you divorce Jingzhou."
