"Get out of the way." Pei Yan ignored the looks from the people around him and looked at Xu Changhui expressionlessly, "My patience is not very good."
Hearing the giggles all around him, Xu Changhui held back and took a step aside.
Pei Yan stopped watching Xu Changhui's acting and took Hua Jin's hand, and walked towards the Yang family's small garden under everyone's attention: "The flowers planted by Aunt Meng are very beautiful. I'll take you to see them."
"Okay." Hua Jin stepped onto the steps and looked back at the people behind her. When the people who were peeking saw her suddenly turn around, they quickly retracted their gazes and started chatting with the people around them. Hua Jin's eyes swept through the crowd and finally met Xu Si's eyes.
As a woman, she could tell at a glance that this woman who was very close to Xu Changhui did not like her very much.
But what does it matter? She is not a money-grubber, so why should she be liked by all men and women? Thinking of this, she raised the corners of her lips and smiled at Qing Qian, like a demon concubine who brought disaster to the country and the people, about to ascend the throne of queen, mocking her defeated general.
This provocative smile made Xu Si unable to maintain the smile on her face any longer. She wanted to tear Hua Jin's face apart, just like she bullied those classmates she disliked in the past, bullying them severely and trampling their self-esteem to the ground.
She took a deep breath, ready to return Hua Jin's perfect smile, but when she raised her head again, Hua Jin and Pei Yan had already left hand in hand without even giving her a glance.
At this moment, Xu Si felt that Hua Jin was much more hateful than those pretentious plastic sisters.
"I don't like that Xu Si." Walking in the flower garden of the Yang family, Hua Jin's fingers were hooked with Pei Yan's fingers, and they walked slowly, "You are right, a person who likes to bully other students is not a good person by nature."
"Why do you suddenly have this feeling?" Pei Yan turned his head and looked at her for a few seconds, "Could it be...jealous?"
"What's wrong with being jealous?" Hua Jin glared at him, "Can't eat?"
"Eat, eat, eat whatever you want. I'll buy you whatever flavor you want." Pei Yan waved his hands repeatedly, "Next time I see her, I promise to stay away from her, okay?"
"Am I such a domineering person?" Hua Jin snorted, "The most important thing between lovers is trust. I believe you will not flirt with other people, right?" After saying that, she glanced at Pei Yan's organs below the waist.
Pei Yan: “…”
When the birthday banquet started at noon, Hua Jin discovered that most of the people sitting at the same table with Pei Yan were not juniors, but middle-aged men in their forties or above. She sat next to Pei Yan and received friendly smiles from the ladies at the same table.
The dishes were exquisite, and the presentation of each dish looked like a work of art. Looking at the people at the table who had hardly moved their chopsticks, Hua Jin also kept smiling gracefully.
Pei Yan turned his head to look at Hua Jin and put a dish she liked into her bowl: "Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Looking at the food in the bowl, Hua Jin stopped pretending and just started eating.
The lady sitting on the other side of her saw it and said with a smile: "Mr. Pei is such a considerate and good man."
Upon hearing this, her husband quickly picked up a shrimp and put it in her bowl, and said to Pei Yan: "With Mr. Pei here today, all of us men are outshined."
The other men echoed the sentiments, and the ladies also took the opportunity to praise Pei Yan. Some also praised Hua Jin for her good figure and good looks. Their friendly attitude made Hua Jin begin to doubt that those TV dramas about wealthy families were all lies. According to the TV drama routine, when Cinderella attends important occasions with rich people, she will always be gossiped about or deliberately provoked by others. But when it comes to her, it's all compliments.
Pei Yan picked up two more dishes for Hua Jin and smiled slightly, "If you don't treat the person you like well, who else can you treat well? All the elders present here, please stop joking. Our Hua Hua is shy, just come and praise me."
Everyone present could understand the meaning of Pei Yan's words. He was protecting his female companion as if she were his own. A man who had a good relationship with Pei Yan said, "It seems that Mr. Pei is about to get married. We should be so shameless to come and drink a glass of wedding wine."
"I'm hopeful that you will all honor me when the time comes." Pei Yan put down his chopsticks, raised his wine glass, and took a sip in front of everyone.
Are you even planning to get married?
Everyone at the same table was secretly surprised. They had heard that Pei Yan's girlfriend was a very ordinary person, but they didn't expect...
Everyone present was a smart person, so they understood the position of Hua Jin in Pei Yan's heart. They became more friendly towards Hua Jin, and several ladies even took the initiative to exchange contact information with Hua Jin.
The meal was almost finished, and in order to cope with the enthusiasm of the people at the same table, her face was almost frozen with laughter. She poked Pei Yan's waist on the table, and Pei Yan turned to look at her.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Hua Jin whispered in his ear, "I'll be back in a while."
"I'll take you there." Pei Yan stood up.
"No need." Hua Jin pushed him back, "I'm not a three or four-year-old child. I need you to accompany me even to the bathroom."
Everyone present watched Pei Yan being pushed back to his seat by his girlfriend, who walked away without looking back, and they almost couldn't help laughing. It's true that there is always someone who can defeat someone else. No matter how bad-tempered Pei Yan is, he is as obedient as a fool in front of his girlfriend.
Since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the temptation of beautiful women. This is a truth that has never changed for thousands of years.
After washing her hands, Hua Jin took out the lipstick from her bag and planned to touch it up. A man walked into the bathroom, glanced at her, and stood one step away from her.
"Miss Hua has fair skin, so she looks beautiful no matter what shade of lipstick she wears." Xu Si looked at herself in the mirror with delicate makeup, tilted her head and smiled at Hua Jin, "But people's youth is only a few short years. To get along with people for a lifetime, the most important thing is self-cultivation and vision, don't you think?"
Pursing her lips to make the lipstick look more natural, Hua Jin smiled back: "Thank you for the compliment."
The smile on Xu Si's face froze slightly. Wasn't this a compliment to her beauty?
"Miss Hua may not be familiar with this brand of lipstick. Pursing your lips will only affect its color and naturalness. Don't use this method in the future." Xu Si said with a smile, "Otherwise, if others see you, they will laugh at you."
"Is that really the case?" Hua Jin sighed and said quietly, "There are too many lipsticks at home, and I'm a careless person, so I'm always too lazy to remember how to use them. Fortunately, my skin is fair and my lips are moist, so I look good with just a casual application. Otherwise, I would really make a fool of myself. Thank you Miss Xu for reminding me."
"Miss Hua, are you very confident in yourself?" Xu Si unscrewed her lipstick and looked at Hua Jin in the mirror, with a mocking look in her eyes, "So that's why you were able to seduce Pei Yan and use him to avenge you?"
"What do you mean, Miss Xu? I don't understand." Hua Jin put away her lipstick, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Or are you dissatisfied with the relationship between Pei Yan and me?"
"A pheasant always wants to become a phoenix." Xu Si sneered, "It's human nature."
"There's a saying that goes, love is something that the parties involved are happy about, so there's no room for other demons and monsters to object." Hua Jin curled her lips and smiled, "It's a pity that some outstanding people just like pheasants, and I don't know why the phoenix was pissed off to death. There are so many phoenixes born in the phoenix nest, but unfortunately there are always one or two phoenixes that get sick and don't live up to expectations, and finally they can only be pissed off to death."
Xu Si's face darkened completely: "Hua Jin, if Pei Yan knew that you were with Xu Changhui just to get revenge on him, do you think he would tolerate your deception and concealment?"
"To avenge Xu Changhui?" The smile on Hua Jin's face slowly disappeared, and he looked at Xu Si coldly, "Does a plague-stricken beast deserve the word revenge?"
After saying that, she suddenly approached Xu Si, frightening him so much that he took a step back: "What do you want to do?"
Hua Jin grabbed Xu Si's hand holding the lipstick and swiped it hard on her face, leaving a long mark on her face.
"Sorry, my hand slipped." Hua Jin took two steps back, looked at Xu Si who was shaking with anger, and smiled charmingly, "If you dare to fight back, I will go out and tell Pei Yan that you bullied me in the bathroom because your family background is better than mine."
"Hua Jin, you are so vicious..."
"Shh." Hua Jin raised her index finger to her lips, "Keep your voice down. Women like me who try so hard to marry into a wealthy family are the best at gossiping. You won't be the one who suffers when the time comes."
Pulling out two tissues and stuffing them into Xu Si's hands, Hua Jin smiled gently: "Miss Xu, you are so careless. How did you put lipstick on your face? Wipe it off quickly."
Xu Si was so angry that his face turned pale. Looking at Hua Jin who was pretending to be gentle, he wished he could strangle her to death.
"Miss Xu, isn't it a great sense of accomplishment to ask someone to find out someone's privacy?" Hua Jin whispered in Xu Si's ear, "My biggest shortcoming is that I hold grudges."
Warm breath surrounded her ears. Xu Si looked at the smiling Hua Jin. Inexplicable fear jumped from her feet to her head. She took a step back until she touched the cold sink. Then she calmed down: "Hua Jin, don't be complacent. When Pei Yan dumps you, I will make you pay."
"If you have the guts, come and trouble me now." Hua Jin laughed, "It's a pity that you don't dare. How pitiful."
Seeing that Xu Si was about to lose her mind because of her anger, Hua Jin picked up her small bag and blew a kiss to Xu Si: "We will play together next time, bye."
"Ah!" Watching Hua Jin walk away shaking her waist, Xu Si looked at her own face, threw the lipstick into the trash can, and her eyes were bloodshot with anger.
How could there be such a cheap woman in the world, so cheap! So cheap!
"Why did you take so long?" Pei Yan noticed that Hua Jin's expression was a little strange, "Did something happen to you?"
"It's okay." Hua Jin raised the corner of her mouth and whispered in his ear, "Just now I took advantage of your power and bullied you."
"Who is causing trouble for you?" Pei Yan obviously didn't care about the course and outcome of the incident, he just wanted to know the beginning of the incident.
"Who else could it be? Of course it's Miss Xu Si who might be interested in you." Hua Jin rolled her eyes at Pei Yan, "She's waiting for you to kick me away so that you can take revenge on me."
"Nonsense, who said you were a pheasant?" Pei Yan said, "You are obviously a peacock, and she is a gray-feathered crow, what qualifications does she have to say that about you?"
Hua Jin: “…”
Why did she feel that this sentence included both her and Xu Si?
"If you meet someone like this next time, tell her to come to me and I'll take care of it." Pei Yan scooped a bowl of soup for her, "You don't have to bother me."
"I am interested in you, are you willing to give me up?" Hua Jin looked at him sideways.
"What do you mean by reluctant? I'm not a central air conditioner that can warm everyone." Pei Yan snorted and turned his head, "It's already a headache for me to coax you alone."
"We've only been dating for a few days, and you already dislike me?" Hua Jin raised her eyebrows and glared at him.
"I say, woman, why do you always fail to grasp the main point when listening to me speak?" Pei Yan said angrily, "Is this the main point of my words?"
"I have a low level of education and can't grasp the key points." Hua Jin curled her lips, "Then tell me, what is the key point?"
Pei Yan: “…”
"Forget it." Hua Jin lowered his eyes, "Anyway, for a pheasant like me to be with you, in the eyes of others, I have already used all means possible."
Pei Yan waited for a while and saw that Hua Jin actually drank the soup quietly without saying another word. He coughed dryly and leaned towards her.
Hua Jin ignored him and continued to sip her soup.
"Are you prepared to spend half an hour drinking such a small bowl of soup?" Pei Yan asked.
"Never mind."
"I don't care about you, but you should care about me. I'm your boyfriend."
"snort."
"The point of my words is..." Pei Yan coughed dryly and whispered in Hua Jin's ear, "The point is, you are the only one in my eyes and heart. Apart from you, no one else can make me fall in love."
"Really?" Hua Jin put down the bowl and smiled.
"Really." Pei Yan nodded seriously at this noisy birthday party, "I have lived for twenty-seven years and I like you, only you."
"Me too." Hua Jin secretly hooked his ring finger under the table, smiling like a flower, "I only like you."
"Brother Pei, Sister Hua, have you finished eating?" Yang Shao ran over, "The place over there is ready, only you haven't gone over yet."
He noticed that Pei Yan and Hua Jin's cheeks were a little red, and asked in confusion: "Why are your faces so red? The air conditioner is turned on very high today."
Pei Yan glared at him: "Do you know what kind of goblins I hate the most?"
"Huh?" Yang Shao was confused.
"Light bulb spirit." Pei Yan stood up holding Hua Jin's hand and walked in front of Yang Shao.
Yang Shao: “…”
He was wrong, he shouldn't be here.
"Where are we going?" Hua Jin got into Pei Yan's car and glanced at Yang Shao who had shamelessly gotten in. "I was planning to embroider for two or three hours this afternoon."
"Sister Hua, it's a rare opportunity for us to get together. We all want to pay our respects to you. We'll have you to help us persuade Brother Pei to treat us better. If you leave, what's the point of this afternoon gathering?" Yang Shao said, "You're the goddess who saved Brother Pei from being single for 27 years. Just give us a chance to pay our respects to you."
Hua Jin suddenly understood Pei Yan's intention. He wanted to use this opportunity to let everyone see her position in his heart, to make everyone respect her and accept her, and also to make her feel at ease.
She turned to look at Pei Yan, who was also looking at her.
"It's impossible to whisper in his ear." Hua Jin smiled brightly, "I'm his girlfriend, so of course I have to help him do evil."
"Sister Hua, you can't let Brother Pei lead you astray." Yang Shao screamed, "Just save us kids."
"Child?" Pei Yan raised his eyebrows in a good mood, "Giant baby, right?"
Hua Jin laughed so hard that she threw herself into Pei Yan's arms. She felt sorry for her makeup as she laughed: "My makeup is all ruined by laughing. You guys are so funny."
"Hehe." Yang Shao scratched his head and smiled, "Sister Hua, Brother Pei is not a man who is good at sweet talk, but you have to believe his sincerity. He and I grew up together, and I have never seen him treat anyone so well."
Can’t say sweet words?
Hua Jin secretly looked at Pei Yan. Although he liked to blush sometimes, he was obviously very good at saying nice things.
As if he understood the meaning of Hua Jin's eyes, Pei Yan leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Those are not sweet words, they are all my true words."
Hua Jin covered her ears. Why were her ears so disobedient? They were actually starting to feel hot.
With a light laugh, Pei Yan held onto Hua Jin's waist and said, "We're going to a leisure resort later. It has nice scenery and a lot of games. You won't be bored."
Hua Jin played with Pei Yan's fingers: "With a handsome man like you by my side, I won't be bored even if I have to count ants."
Pei Yan smiled when he heard this, and didn't even glance at the new message notification on his phone.
