Thirty-three

The room with the blinds drawn and the door closed was dimly lit and suffocatingly quiet.

Pei Qiyou suddenly shook off her hand.

Bai Xiao lost her balance and hit the coffee table next to her. A shuddering pain came from her waist. Her eyes were red, but she did not shed a single tear or utter a cry of pain.

Bai Qinli's words echoed in her ears over and over again, and Bai Xiao dug at the edge of the coffee table with her fingers.

Pei Qiyou's almost cold-blooded voice sounded above his head: "This is the company, don't forget your identity."

"Are you feeling distressed?" Bai Xiao endured the stinging pain in her waist and straightened up, "I hit her, and you feel distressed, right?"

"Fourteen years old, Pei Qiyou, when Bai Qinli was fourteen years old, you fell in love with her..."

Pei Qiyou looked at her pale face coldly, his thin lips pursed tightly, as if he was looking at a helpless weakling.

Bai Xiao stared at his cold and handsome features, "Do you have to humiliate me like this to be happy? When you slept with her, did you think about me? You clearly knew..." Knowing my feelings towards Bai Qiuhua's family

disgust.

Once upon a time, it was you who stood in front of me and drove away Bai Qiuhua who was pestering me, saying that you would protect me for the rest of my life.

But now, you are sleeping with Bai Qiuhua's daughter...

Her voice was very soft, like lightly falling catkins, but it was exceptionally clear in the silent office.

"I thought you were used to it."

When Bai Xiao heard his cold and sarcastic words, there was a hint of weariness between her brows: "Yes, I should get used to it over the years..."

I'm used to all kinds of women around you, I'm used to your cynicism, but why do I still feel heartache?

Bai Xiao smiled, unable to tell whether it was self-mockery or numbness. She covered her bruised waist, turned around and walked slowly to the door, opened it and went out.

Over the years, whether she was kicked out of Pei's house by Mrs. Pei with a cane, or she saw one woman after another around him, she never shed tears in front of him, but just carried her suitcase silently.

Leave or watch quietly.

He didn't get hysterical, didn't break things to vent his anger, didn't cry, didn't make trouble, nothing.

He didn't even mention the request to return to Pei's house once.

She was like a normal person who could live her life as she wanted. However, the more calm she became, the deeper the resentment in his heart became. It was obvious that she had abandoned him first, so why could she come back shamelessly and act like nothing had happened?

happened before?

It is undeniable that when he saw her beating Bai Qinli, he felt happy in his heart.

He wanted Bai Xiao to suffer and wanted her to pay the price for what she had done.

But when he really saw her being humiliated by Bai Qinli, he felt heartbroken.

Until Bai Xiao's frail figure was about to completely disappear from his sight, Pei Qiyou suddenly stepped out with his long legs and chased after her.

As soon as he reached the door, he bumped into another person unexpectedly.

"Ah!" Bai Qinli "happened" to fall into Pei Qiyou's arms, frowning, biting her red lips, and groaned.

Pei Qiyou was thinking of Bai Xiao and reached out to push her away. His raised hand was held by Bai Qinli, and his palm was pressed against her smooth and soft cheek. He lowered his head irritably, but what he saw was her shy expression with lowered eyes.

, he momentarily forgot to retract his hand.
