Chapter 188 I Might Be Even More Foolish

Lin Xiyin was taken aback.

Pei Muye turned his head and said softly, "Only my girlfriend can examine me."

Lin Xiyin did not speak.

Pei Muye didn't expect to get a reply.

He started the car and drove off.

The two of them barely spoke the rest of the way.

After dropping Lin Xiyin off, Lin Xiyin unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car.

Pei Muye said, "You can also check."

Lin Xiyin looked at him and said, "I'm not your girlfriend."

"Then you can too."

Lin Xiyin smiled and said, "You're acting like a spoiled child."

“Just a kid is a kid,” Pei Muyi said, his voice tinged with a hint of grievance. “You said you were going to get checked.”

Lin Xiyin said, "I'll send you a message then. I misspoke, it wasn't an inspection, I have no right to inspect you."

After saying that, she pushed open the car door and got out.

Pei Muye quickly got out of the car and looked at her over the roof: "You are qualified, only you are qualified."

After saying that, he didn't even look at Lin Xiyin's reaction, nor did he want to hear what she had to say. He got into his car, started the engine, and drove away.

Lin Xiyin stood downstairs for a while before going inside.

Lin Youxing got out of school early, and Qu Jianhang had already picked him up.

"You're back?" Qu Jianhang hugged her. "Pei Muye didn't even invite you to dinner."

Lin Xiyin smiled and said, "He has a meeting tonight."

"I knew it."

Aunt Zhao used to get along very well with the children, and everyone loved the food she cooked.

Although she was a bit old, she agreed to take care of Lin Xiyin and the child because of Xiao Ruoyi.

But after spending time with them, Aunt Zhao also grew to like Lin Xiyin very much.

So this time when we came to Qujianhang, we asked for Auntie's opinion, and Auntie came over too.

Lin Youxing could always eat a big bowl of the food she cooked.

During the meal, Qu Jianhang suddenly got up and went to the restroom.

"mom?"

"I'm fine." Qu Jianhang said without turning his head, "You guys eat."

She was actually quite emotional, her eyes were red, but she didn't want her child to see it.

Such a scene at the dining table was something she never dared to imagine before.

Now, it has come true like a dream.

She smiled at herself in the mirror, then went to the restaurant.

Lin Youxing went to sleep before nine o'clock.

Qu Jianhang chatted with Lin Xiyin for a while, and it was almost ten o'clock when she returned to her bedroom.

She went to wash up, and when she came back, she found that Pei Muye had sent her a message.

He said: The meeting is over.

Lin Xiyin replied to him: It's quite early. Then you should get some rest, goodnight.

Pei Muye asked her: Are you going to sleep now?

Lin Xiyin said: "Later, around 11 o'clock. I'll look at some materials now."

Pei Muye asked: Can you come to my place for a visit?

Lin Xiyin asked curiously: Now?

Pei Muye replied: Now, I'll come pick you up.

Lin Xiyin initially wanted to refuse, but when she thought of the expression on his face when he brought her back, she stopped typing.

Lin Xiyin changed her clothes and came out of the bedroom. The living room was quiet.

Everyone went back to their rooms.

She tiptoed to the door, changed her shoes, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw someone standing there.

She was startled and instinctively wanted to make a sound.

Pei Muye stepped forward and covered her mouth: "It's me."

His palm was warm, pressed against her lips.

Lin Xiyin blinked, and Pei Muyi hurriedly withdrew his hand.

She closed the door and tucked her hair behind her ears, vaguely feeling that her ears were a little hot.

How did you get up here?

"It's too late," Pei Muye said. "I'm worried about you going downstairs alone."

The two entered the elevator, and Lin Xiyin asked him, "How about we just take a walk around?"

“No,” Pei Muyi said. “You promised me you’d go.”

"When did I agree to that..."

Pei Muye said, "No answer means consent."

Lin Xiyin fell silent.

Pei Muye glanced at her and couldn't help but say, "If you don't want to go, then forget it."

"So, are you alright or not?"

"Something's up."

"Then I'll go."

There's nothing to be afraid of.

Pei Muye couldn't possibly do anything to her.

When Lin Xiyin arrived at Pei Muye's place, she still felt a bit emotional seeing the familiar room and furnishings.

"Yinyin, come here."

Pei Muye led the way.

When the two of them lived there, they had a maximum of two bedrooms and a study.

There are several more rooms that are completely unused.

One of the rooms was converted into a storage room to store things that are not usually used.

Pei Muye led her inside and then stood at the door of the storage room.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xiyin asked curiously, "What's here?"

"See for yourself."

Pei Muye opened the door.

In the past, there weren't many things in the storage room. After all, the house was big, and Pei Muyi was always particular about things, so he threw away most of the things he didn't use.

Although it's called a storage room, it's actually empty most of the time.

But now, the room is piled high with gift boxes.

Big and small, all kinds of colors, all kinds of brands.

It seems that all the luxury brands Lin Xiyin knows can be found here.

"What's this?"

Lin Xiyin was stunned.

Pei Muye said, "This is a gift I prepared for you. I bought it, but I was worried you wouldn't accept it. But every time I see it, I still want to buy it for you. You asked me the other day why I thought of buying shoes. Sometimes I buy gifts and leave them in my car, and that day was just a coincidence."

He walked over and picked up a box: "Look, this is also full of shoes. I thought you would like them, so I bought them."

The gift boxes were piled up like a small mountain.

It almost filled the entire room.

Lin Xiyin suddenly felt a lump in her throat.

Pei Muye lowered his eyes: "Before, I didn't know how to make you happy. I asked Lu Zuofan, and he said that women like gifts, bags, jewelry, anything. I bought one that day, but by some twist of fate, Ming Qingwan took it by mistake. Since then, I've been thinking about how to make it up to you."

Pei Muyi paused for a moment, then said, "But I didn't expect that I wouldn't have the chance."

Lin Xiyin sniffed.

Pei Muyi said again, "This time, after we meet again, I won't let go again. Yinyin, perhaps there are many things I haven't done well. But I will try my best, I will learn, and in the future, I will make you happy and bring you joy. Please give me another chance, okay?"

Before Lin Xiyin could speak, Pei Muye said, "Don't rush to give me an answer. I can wait. I can wait as long as it takes. I just want you to know my thoughts and determination. Yinyin has nothing to do with Youyou. From beginning to end, all I've wanted is you."

Lin Xiyin looked up at him.

She has beautiful big eyes and looks a lot like Lin Youxing.

At that moment, her eyes seemed to be filled with water droplets, their black and white clearly defined, making her exceptionally beautiful.

Pei Muye stared at her intently.

Lin Xiyin also looked at the handsome face in front of her.

No matter when, even during their three-year marriage, she could harbor resentment towards Pei Muyi for any flaws—his personality, habits, words, or actions…

But this face alone is flawless.

He's the kind of guy who can enter the entertainment industry and rank among the top three most handsome male celebrities just because of his looks.

Even now, looking at that face still makes Lin Xiyin's heart flutter.

But she knew very well that her heart was not moved by his handsome appearance.

If it's just because he's good-looking, then this love won't last long.

I wouldn't want to cause her so much pain.

Now, he has come back to her.

He cut off all the sources of her pain, one by one.

Whether it was Ming Qingwan or Qu Lianyi, he personally denied their relationship.

He also clarified all the misunderstandings from the past.

She had said long ago that the marriage went wrong, and it wasn't just Pei Muyi's fault.

She has it too.

If Pei Muyi is willing to put aside all his pride and ego and come back to her.

And she would still be moved.

Does that mean they can start over?

Moreover, Qu Jianhang's previous statement about "being in love" really made her yearn for it.

She also wants to experience a relationship.

However, she and Pei Muye already have a child. If she agrees to reconcile with him, the two of them will probably have to get married again very soon.

The kind of romance she desires is probably something she'll never experience.

But she never thought about dating anyone else.

"Yinyin, go open the presents."

Pei Muye's voice rang in my ears.

At this moment, Pei Muye's face appeared even more handsome in Lin Xiyin's eyes.

She smiled, then shook her head: "Never mind, I can't accept something for nothing."

Pei Muye said, "But they belong only to you."

Lin Xiyin tilted her head to look at him: "It's too valuable, I really can't accept it."

"Then why did you only accept it now?" Pei Muye's voice carried a hint of grievance: "President Qu gave you shares, and you accepted them all. Those are the valuable things. Compared to those, what I have is nothing."

"She is my mother."

“I am…” Pei Muye glanced at her again; “I am Youyou’s father.”

"So what? Our household registrations are separate, and our marriage certificate has been stamped with an invalid official seal. In every respect, you and I have no relation anymore."

"What if I say I want to start over?"

Lin Xiyin said, "You think we can just start over like that? Why should I listen to you?"

Pei Muye looked at her for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled.

He loved Lin Xiyin, and his love for her never diminished.

But it was only after the divorce that he truly got to know her and slowly began to understand her.

But only now has he discovered that she also has such a playful side.

Lin Xiyin was a little embarrassed: "What are you laughing at?"

"Hmm, you don't have to listen to me," Pei Muye said. "I'll listen to you, okay?"

"You don't have to listen to me." Lin Xiyin felt her earlobes turn red.

Why is it that this divorced man has developed such a talent for sweet talk?

He looked at me like that, his tone full of doting affection, which had a unique masculine charm.

Lin Xiyin felt that her skill level was not high enough.

Forget it, this place is not suitable for lingering.

"It's getting late, I should go back to sleep."

“Just leave these gifts here,” Pei Muyi said. “Luckily, there’s no food in them, or they’d expire.”

"Can I return these items?"

Pei Muye raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "What do you think?"

Lin Xiyin glanced again at the room full of gifts.

Honestly, which woman wouldn't be tempted?

It wasn't just one or two items, but a whole pile, like a small mountain.

"How much did you pay for it? Can I buy it?"

Anyway, she has money now.

Pei Muye replied, "I'm sorry, but these are priceless treasures to me, and I won't sell them."

He finished speaking and chuckled, "I'll give it to you, but you don't want it. You want to buy it yourself? Are you stupid?"

"I'm just that stupid."

“Then I’m probably even more foolish,” Pei Muyi said. “You’re so foolish, and I still like you terribly. Isn’t that even more foolish?”
