Xia Chuyue's words were like a muffled thunderclap, striking the girl's head heavily.
She felt her feverish brain suddenly lack blood supply, making it impossible for her to think of anything, leaving her completely at the mercy of others.
The girl opened her mouth, wanting to ask Xia Chuyue what she meant.
How did her mother become a mistress?
Dad loves Mom so much because her name contains the character "Mei" (玫). On Mom's birthday, he booked the largest rose garden in the suburbs.
The vibrant roses were arranged into a large heart shape, leaving countless tourists in awe at first glance.
From childhood to adulthood, girls live under the influence of their parents' love.
She even uses her father as a template when choosing a boyfriend!
How could such intense and sincere love be fake?!
The girl was unconvinced.
But she also had a vague feeling that what Xia Chuyue said... was true.
Her father's problem was actually quite obvious, but the girl just refused to admit it.
Xia Chuyue finished flipping through the gossip and sighed twice.
Ultimately, this guy's methods were too sophisticated; he managed to win over the girl's mother, who is still happily immersed in love.
In reality, the man only sought them out because they resembled his original wife.
The reason he doted on his only daughter so much was because of her appearance; she looked remarkably like his wife.
The girl was stunned, as if struck by a heavy blow, and stood there for a long time without being able to react.
The color in her lips faded little by little, and the girl seemed to have lost all her ability to question him.
She shuddered twice, on the verge of collapse.
Just as she was in despair, a figure hurriedly walked towards her.
The girl's father, covered in sweat, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the girl in the baseball cap in the hallway.
"Xiao Luo, what are you doing here?"
When the father saw his daughter running over to cause trouble for Xia Chuyue, he bowed apologetically to her.
"I'm so sorry, my daughter was too impulsive and has caused you trouble."
Xia Chuyue found the other party's respectful and humble attitude somewhat strange.
Xia Chuyue had heard about this man at the dinner party; his family was in the mining business.
Although their family background is not as good as the Xia family, they should still be so respectful and polite to Xia Chuyue, a junior.
"Need not."
Perhaps his questioning look was too obvious, because the girl's father wiped his sweat and smiled as he offered a few words of explanation.
"It's also my fault for not reading entertainment news often. Young Master Pei specifically came to me and told me to quickly clarify the situation."
"Don't worry, I've already posted it on Weibo, it definitely won't affect your reputation."
As he spoke, the girl's father quickly took his dejected daughter and left.
Xia Chuyue frowned slightly.
Pei Qi?
That's possible. No matter where you look, the Pei family's background is enough to make people wary.
However, Xia Chuyue didn't really want to owe Pei Qi a favor.
After thanking the celebrities who came to help, Xia Chuyue closed the door and went back inside.
So much happened that night that Xia Chuyue's temples were starting to ache.
Sitting on the bed, she pondered for a long time before finally calling Pei Qi.
Pei Qi was in his office, looking stylish and handsome in a lead-gray suit. He had also carefully styled his hair, dressing up as if he were going to a banquet.
Seeing Xia Chuyue's call, he had expected it. He coughed lightly and sat up straight.
Pei Qi fixed the phone at a fixed angle, pointing it at his best profile, and then answered the call.
Xia Chu stared silently at Pei Qi's face appearing on the video screen.
"What are you doing?"
Pei Qi couldn't possibly admit that he had gotten his hair done specifically to wait for Xia Chuyue's call, could he?
"I didn't do anything. What do you want from me?"
Pei Qi's fingers clenched slightly off the screen, but he didn't reveal his nervousness.
Although he had already made a strong statement that he would never turn back.
But when it comes to Xia Chuyue, he still loses his composure.
He inexplicably did a bunch of random things, and when he came to his senses, Pei Qi was a little embarrassed.
Xia Chuyue ignored Pei Qi's strange outfit today and gave a soft "hmm".
"Thank you for your help tonight."
Pei Qi responded softly, then, looking at Xia Chuyue's still slightly damp hair in the image, suddenly said:
"Dry your hair before you go to sleep, or your head will hurt."
Xia Chuyue had a long question for Pei Qi, but it all got stuck in her throat.
She paused for two seconds, then turned to look at her damp hair that cascaded down her shoulders.
Pei Qi didn't seem to care much about the time and effort he had put into facilitating the connection, just to threaten someone into clarifying Xia Chuyue's situation on Weibo.
Seeing that Xia Chuyue noticed her hair wasn't dry, he gave her a few more instructions.
"You used to not blow-dry your hair often in college, remember? You had headaches several times."
"If I hadn't discovered it myself and asked someone to send you a hair dryer..."
Thinking of this, Pei Qi suddenly stopped.
"Did you give me the hair dryer?"
As if struck by a thought, Xia Chuyue looked at Pei Qi through the screen with her clear and bright eyes.
Pei Qi could only stammer a couple of times before changing the subject.
"Are you alright now? Don't worry about the negative rumors online. Those baseless accusations will be cleared up once others clarify them."
Xia Chuyue looked at Pei Qi, whose eyes were darting away and who dared not look her in the eye, and for some reason, the corner of her mouth suddenly turned up.
That's what she said.
I was poor when I was in college and couldn't afford to buy a hair dryer.
