Chapter 29 [VIP]

"Xie Nanyi? How did you get here? Where are your handcuffs?"

The three people who were stuck at the door were all surprised when they saw the newcomer. Pei Xingzhi looked at his wrist and the handcuffs that were turning his fingers, and was somewhat surprised that he had broken free of the handcuffs and run off the bed. Did Alphas in their fertile period have such great strength?

"..." Xie Nanyi was already used to Pei Xingzhi's peculiar thought process. He sighed, unlocked the handcuffs, walked up to them, pulled Pei Xingzhi behind him, and handcuffed the two men in suits together.

The men in suits obediently raised their hands, allowing Xie Nanyi to link their left and right hands together. Their timid appearance was completely different from the "gangster boss" they had just been.

Xie Nanyi took a key out of her pocket, spun it around the key ring, and then threw it into Pei Xingzhi's hand.

“Baby, don’t bring outsiders in next time you play with this. I get shy too,” Xie Nanyi said, blowing a kiss to Pei Xingzhi. Upon seeing the key, Pei Xingzhi clearly remembered where the handcuffs came from, and his face flushed red.

Pei Xingzhi bit his lip, his eyes wide with anger, wanting to retort but unsure how to begin. How could this person be so shameless! Playing with this kind of thing was bad enough, but now they were even slandering him!

“Baby, don’t be shy. I’ll buy a better quality one next time. This one is too rough and not easy to use. My wrists are all rubbed red. How can I let you use it?” Xie Nanyi ignored his anger and gave him a flirtatious wink, continuing to say the things that made Pei Xingzhi embarrassed.

He originally only meant it to Xie Xu'an, but who knew Pei Xingzhi was so naive that he made him blush with just a few words.

What quality could sex toys possibly have? He just didn't expect Pei Xingzhi to bring this up.

Thinking about this, Xie Nanyi felt that she should ask someone to change her luck. None of the people Xie Xu'an sent were useful. Assistant Qin even prepared this big gift for her before leaving.

"Young Master, we..."

"Shut up." Xie Nanyi interrupted the man in the suit as soon as he opened his mouth. He glanced at the man in the suit and pointed to the door, indicating that they should step outside.

The man in the suit didn't dare to argue and slowly retreated with his head down.

Pei Xingzhi had always found the Xie family's rules rather strange.

Rumors from the school and other sources say that the Xie family highly values ​​Xie Nanyi, their eldest son, and this was evident even when Xie Nanyi was alive. However, once he's out of their sight, the Xie family members seem completely indifferent to his life or death. Whether Xie Nanyi lives or dies is irrelevant; as long as they appear loyal enough, that's enough.

It's like some kind of strange rule or legend.

"Who sent you? Forget it, go back and tell the old man that if he wants his daughter-in-law to marry into the family, he needs to straighten out his attitude first. What kind of father-in-law threatens his daughter-in-law like this and tries to take her away with her tied up? What kind of father-in-law greets his daughter-in-law like this?"

Pei Xingzhi opened his mouth to say something after hearing his words, but Xie Nanyi covered his mouth first, silencing him from what he was about to say.

Pei Xingzhi glared at him, his eyes accusing Xie Nanyi of her "daughter-in-law theory."

He's still an innocent college student! How did he become Xie Nanyi's daughter-in-law?! Why is this person constantly spreading rumors about him?!

“Young Master…” The man in the suit glanced down at the handcuffs on his wrists, paused for a moment, and then exchanged a look. “Mr. Xie…”

"What do you mean, 'him'?" Xie Nanyi didn't let them speak at all. After rebuking the two of them, she pushed them out. "How to explain this to the old man is something you need to figure out. Help me tell him that if he dares to come here to snatch people again, I'll make sure his Xie family line ends."

"few……"

“Say one more word and I’ll have all his illegitimate daughters sterilized too.”

After Xie Nanyi said that, the two men in suits, who were carrying recording equipment, were afraid that if they stayed any longer they would hear something outrageous. They even forgot to mention Xie Xu'an's warning and hurriedly ran away in a panic.

"You..." It took Pei Xingzhi a while to come to his senses and speak after the man in the suit had run away. He bit his lip, put his finger to his lips, and hesitated to speak.

"Xiao Zhi, I'm so scared."

As soon as Pei Xingzhi spoke, Xie Nanyi slumped against him as if she had no bones, acting coquettishly towards him.

"Are you scared?" Pei Xingzhi, unusually, didn't push the person up immediately. His hands hung naturally at his sides, and his expression was slightly complicated.

Wasn't it Xie Nanyi who scared those two men in suits like that just now? What is he afraid of now?

"Hmm... I'm so scared, Xiaozhi, can you hug me and comfort me?" Xie Nanyi buried her head in Pei Xingzhi's neck, her voice carrying a sticky, muffled, coquettish tone.

"Was my answer useful?" Even if Pei Xingzhi answered "no," Xie Nanyi was still hugging him.

"But I want Xiaozhi to hug me." Xie Nanyi shook her head, insisting on hanging on Pei Xingzhi despite being over 1.8 meters tall.

Pei Xingzhi was somewhat glad that he was a Beta; if he were an Omega, he would have been crushed by Xie Nanyi long ago.

"Alright, stop fooling around. What are you doing standing in the entryway? Go to the living room."

"Will Xiaozhi let me carry him when we go to the living room?"

"..." The conversation inevitably turns to this, doesn't it?

"You go first."

Pei Xingzhi carried the man to the living room, and after finally managing to put him on the sofa, he wanted to go to the kitchen for a drink of water, but Xie Nanyi pulled him back onto the sofa with a forceful pull.

"Xie Nanyi! Can't you live independently for a while?" Pei Xingzhi was getting fed up with Xie Nanyi's clinginess after being pestered like this time and time again. "I'm not going to hold it against you now because you're in your vulnerable period, but this is the last time. If you do it again, I won't let you off the hook!"

Pei Xingzhi's threat had some effect; Xie Nanyi raised her hands in surrender and finally sat quietly on the sofa for a while.

After all that fuss, Xie Nanyi realized she hadn't had lunch yet. She'd handed in her paper early so she could sneak back and see what delicious food Xie Nanyi had prepared for her, but instead, she'd encountered a whole host of problems and hadn't even had a sip of water.

"What do you want to eat?" Considering that Xie Nanyi was still in her susceptible period and that Assistant Qin could not be contacted at the moment, Pei Xingzhi could only roll up his sleeves and prepare to cook for himself.

Although the two of them don't usually cook, they still have all the necessary ingredients, so making something simple shouldn't be a problem.

"Xiao Zhi, will you make it for me?" After Pei Xingzhi's "stern" criticism, Xie Nanyi sat obediently on the sofa like a primary school student.

"Nonsense, it's just the two of us here. If I don't do it, are you the one who should?"

Talking to Xie Nanyi was exhausting, so Pei Xingzhi decided to stop communicating with her and turned to go straight into the kitchen.

Half an hour later, Pei Xingzhi emerged from the kitchen looking slightly ashamed and asked in a low voice, "Do you prefer chicken stew with mushrooms or braised beef?"

"I'm fine with either."

"Then you can have chicken stew with mushrooms."

"I don't remember there being any mushrooms in the refrigerator, right?"

"..." Good question.

"Actually, it's instant noodles." Pei Xingzhi guiltily pulled out the instant noodles he'd bought sometime in the past. Ever since he met Xie Nanyi, Xie Nanyi had been watching over his meals almost every day. Apart from the initial awkwardness when he ate, Xie Nanyi had kept his diet strictly healthy, and he hadn't eaten this kind of emergency food in a long time. He hadn't expected that after so many days apart, they would still be so warm and friendly when they met again.

"Isn't Xiaozhi cooking?" Xie Nanyi resisted Pei Xingzhi's friendly emergency product and struggled a little.

"A minor setback..."

"How bad is it? I can eat anything Xiaozhi makes..." Xie Nanyi's voice stopped abruptly when he saw what Pei Xingzhi brought out. Even though he was very knowledgeable, he really couldn't tell what those colorful things on the plate were.

"What kind of dish is this?" Xie Nanyi asked with utmost sincerity.

"Stir-fried carrots, onions, and bell peppers, you can also call it colorful. Would you like to try it?" Pei Xingzhi held up the plate with both hands, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Xie Nanyi.

He has always dreamed of cooking, but unfortunately, no one has ever understood his culinary skills since he was a child. Even his older brother advised him to give up cooking. He never thought that he would finally meet someone who could resonate with him today.

"This is a new dish I came up with based on the food in your fridge. It's a little burnt, but everything else is fine. You should try it!"

"..." Xie Nanyi closed her eyes, choosing to live over praise. "I'm still in my susceptible period and can't eat so many vegetables. I'll definitely try them next time."

"How about chicken stew with mushrooms then?" Seeing that his dish had been rejected before it was even tasted, Pei Xingzhi's mood visibly dropped. "Ordering delivery here is too much trouble."

Although this is a luxury student dormitory, the school has kept the area around the dormitory almost entirely free of shops in order to protect the privacy of these "elite" students. Furthermore, since the students living here all have assistants to take care of their daily meals, there are no fixed restaurants or canteens. Even if they order takeout, the security guards will stop them at the gate, and the students will have to go to the gate to pick it up themselves.

Simply put, for students living here without an assistant, it's no different from living in a luxury version of prison.

"I'll do it." Seeing that Pei Xingzhi wasn't very interested, Xie Nanyi got up and took the apron from Pei Xingzhi's hand and put it on.

"You can cook?" Pei Xingzhi's eyes flashed with obvious surprise.

No wonder he was so surprised. Shouldn't a young master like him, who is rumored to be detached from worldly affairs and ignorant of basic necessities, be able to cook?

"I know a little, and my skill level is pretty good," Xie Nanyi said without any modesty. "Are you that surprised that I can cook?"

"No matter how I think about it, I'm still surprised! I thought you were the kind of young master who just waits to be fed. Aren't all young masters like that?" Pei Xingzhi belatedly covered his mouth after he finished speaking. He could have just thought about it in his mind, but he actually said it out loud.

"Maybe others are like that, but I'm different. My dad, the one who just called you over, doesn't like me. He really, really dislikes me."

Pei Xingzhi's words seemed to have touched a sore spot for Xie Nanyi, and his eyes dimmed, his slow tone revealing a hint of sadness.

"You've probably noticed, haven't you? I don't really have any status at home." Xie Nanyi looked at Pei Xingzhi and gave a bitter smile. "They...they've always bullied me."

"But I see they're all afraid of you. Aren't you going to sterilize all of your father's illegitimate children?" Pei Xingzhi covered his mouth, looking the tall, high-quality Alpha up and down. He couldn't believe the credibility of that statement at all.

Xie Nanyi's words sounded pitiful, but Pei Xingzhi, who had been deceived by him too many times, dared not believe him so easily.

I believe Xie Nanyi will not have a good ending!

"Do you think they're kittens or puppies? I can't just neuter them whenever I want. I'm just trying to scare them."

Pei Xingzhi touched his chin with his right hand and remained silent, pursing his lips but still not saying a word.

Believe no one but Xie Nanyi's words.

This is the deepest lesson Pei Xingzhi has learned in all his years.

"Never mind! Go cook, I'm starving."
