Pei Zhi is a retiree from the Quick Transmigration Bureau. Due to her flirtatious behavior in several small worlds before retirement, the worlds faced collapse, forcing her to return to duty. The a...
Pei Zhi's amnesia has always been a heavy burden on Xiao Chengci's heart.
Since learning that Pei Zhi's memories had returned, Pei Zhi did not intend to hold it against him.
Even before Pei Zhi lost her temper with him, Xiao Chengci's good mood was written all over his face.
Xiao Chengci's biggest fear was that Pei Zhi might remember their past and abandon him.
Now that these worries have been relieved, Xiao Chengci has been smiling at everyone he meets these past few days.
Even when attending court, Xiao Chengci always had a smile on his face.
His laughter made the court officials somewhat frightened, and they all came to ask Pei Minxue, "Has something good happened to Your Majesty these past few days?"
Why has Your Majesty been so unusually cheerful these past few days?
Pei Minxue couldn't answer this question either, because he didn't know either.
Pei Minxue even specifically asked Pei Zhi if she had agreed to marry His Majesty.
Otherwise, what's wrong with His Majesty?
Pei Zhi retorted, "What's wrong with Pei Minxue? Why is he spouting such nonsense in broad daylight?"
Pei Zhi would only choose to marry Xiao Chengci if she were truly desperate.
That's ridiculous, isn't she doing just fine the way she is now?
Why insist on going to the palace and making yourself suffer?
Currently, her relationship with Xiao Chengci is consensual, but if she gets tired of him in the future, she can go find someone else.
If she really marries Xiao Chengci, things will be different.
Pei Zhi was unwilling to create a cage for herself.
Xiao Chengci's good mood lasted for quite some time.
It wasn't until Pei Zhi met Shang Huai's grandparents that things progressed.
It should be said that it was Shang Huai's grandparents who came to see Pei Zhi.
When Shang Huai's grandparents saw that he had brought the person back and then remained silent, they couldn't help but ask him a few questions.
Shang Huai didn't hide anything and said that the girl had had a minor accident and was injured, making it inconvenient for her to travel.
When Shang Huai's grandparents found out, they insisted on visiting him, saying that as Shang Huai's elders, they needed to express their support.
Regardless of whether they can end up together, if the young girl knew that the people of the Shang family are all easy to get along with.
In short, I just wanted to give Shang Huai some extra points.
When Shang Huai's grandparents came to visit Pei Zhi, they naturally didn't come empty-handed.
But this was the first time Madam Pei, who had lived in the capital for so many years, had ever seen someone come to visit a sick person, bringing gifts in three carriages.
These things were piled up all over the front yard.
There was no other way; this was the first time in Shang Huai's life that he had a girl he liked, so his grandparents naturally wanted to prepare more things to show their respect.
Since Pei Zhi was unable to move easily, Madam Pei led the two elders to the back to see Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi remained remarkably calm, while Shang Huai, who was accompanying her, appeared extremely nervous.
"My grandmother may talk a lot, but it's because she likes you, so please don't overthink it."
“My grandfather’s face looks a bit fierce when he’s not smiling, but that’s just how he is, he can’t change it, so don’t misunderstand.”
"If you think they talk too much, just give me a look and I'll take them away immediately so they won't disturb your rest."
Pei Zhi rested her chin on her hand. "Shang Huai, in your heart, am I just a person with a bad temper?"
Even if Pei Zhi wants to lose her temper, she should at least consider the occasion, okay?
She was injured, and her elders came to visit her personally. Even if they were just being overly enthusiastic, Pei Zhi would still chat with them.
Pei Zhi isn't the kind of person who doesn't appreciate other people's good intentions.
"I'm just scared."
"You should wipe your sweat and drink some water."
Pei Zhi pointed to Shang Huai's lips, "His lips are a little chapped."
Shang Huai poured himself a glass of water and downed it in one gulp.
Soon, Shang Huai heard voices.
Shang Huai jumped to his feet, looking extremely flustered.
Pei Zhi couldn't stand up even if she wanted to, so she could only sit obediently.
Since Shang Huai's grandparents were able to personally visit Pei Zhi, they certainly weren't there to cause her trouble.
Pei Zhi wasn't the type to be disrespectful to elders, so the thing Shang Huai was worried about never happened.
Shang Huai's grandparents had made thorough preparations, and no matter what kind of personality the girl had, they would agree to it.
After all, this is the person Shang Huai likes.
Surprisingly, no matter what they talked about, Pei Zhi could always chime in, which showed that she had a wide range of knowledge.
The little girl is beautiful, has a good personality, and knows a lot.
Shang Huai's worries were completely unnecessary.
Pei Zhi has this kind of magic; she can befriend anyone she wants.
Since Shang Huai treated her so well, Pei Zhi naturally couldn't let him be in a difficult position.
Shang Huai personally escorted his grandparents back to their residence. In the carriage, Shang Huai's grandmother said, "I like this girl very much."
"How about we pick a day and send a matchmaker over?"
Shang Huai was bewildered: "Why send a matchmaker?"
Grandmother Shang patted Shang Huai on the back: "What do you mean, 'what'?"
"Inviting a matchmaker is naturally to finalize your marriage."
"No matter what, you need to establish a reputation first. Otherwise, it's not a good thing for you to stay in someone else's house every day, spending every day with that young lady."
Grandfather Shang nodded: "Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the young lady. A girl's reputation is important."
Shang Huai scratched his head, unsure how to appease his grandparents.
Asking a matchmaker to come to your door is obviously not an option.
"This matter still needs to be discussed with His Majesty."
Grandfather Shang frowned: "What are you discussing with His Majesty? His Majesty isn't your father."
Shang Huai forced a smile: "I don't think this matter is in a hurry."
"Besides, her leg is still injured. Let's wait until she recovers before talking about it."
Shang Huai only wanted to brush it off, but he didn't expect that his words would cause some misunderstandings for his grandparents.
"What do you mean by 'wait until she recovers'?"
"So, you're saying you're afraid this girl won't be able to stand up again?"
"So, you're going to wait and see. If this girl really has a problem with her leg, are you not planning to be with her anymore?"
Shang Huai dared not have such thoughts, but for a moment, he didn't know how to explain it.
So, Shang Huai suddenly fell silent.
Remaining silent at this point means you agree.
Grandma Shang reached out and slapped Shang Huai hard on the shoulder: "You child, you're a real scoundrel."
"When she came home with you before, her leg was perfectly fine. Now that she has a little problem, you're already having these kinds of thoughts. Are you even human?"
"If this girl really has a problem with her leg, and you still don't want her, wouldn't that just make things worse?"
Grandmother Shang was furious: "How could our family produce such a thing as you?"
He was already being scolded, but Shang Huai didn't care and just accepted it.
Shang Huai feigned disdain and said, "Grandmother, if she really can't stand up anymore, am I supposed to marry an ancestor?"
