Lying on the soft big bed, Hua Jin thought she would not be able to fall asleep, but unexpectedly, she slept exceptionally soundly. When she woke up in the morning, she rolled over in bed out of habit, then she remembered that this was not her bed.
There were no unpacked toiletries in the bathroom. After Hua Jin finished washing up, she opened the closet, which was full of local women's clothing. The sizes were the same as what she usually wore, and even the design style just happened to match her aesthetic. Was this specially prepared by Pei Yan for her?
When did he prepare these secretly?
After changing her clothes, Hua Jin walked to Pei Yan's door and was about to knock when Pei Yan came out of the study. He smiled when he saw Hua Jin and said, "You're awake. Go downstairs and have breakfast. I'll take you to Fanhua later."
"How is your cold?" Hua Jin walked up to him and put her hand on his forehead.
"I heard that people's lips are more sensitive than the palms." Pei Yan bent down, looked at Hua Jin's lips, and pointed at his forehead. "Do you want to try another method?"
"You have the energy to be shameless. It seems there is nothing wrong with you." Hua Jin withdrew her hand, rolled her eyes at him, turned around and walked downstairs.
"With you here, I feel refreshed and free of all my illnesses." Pei Yan followed Hua Jin downstairs. Breakfast was already prepared on the dining table. Pei Yan pulled out a chair for Hua Jin and asked her to sit down.
Hua Jin glanced at him and said, "Although your fever has subsided, you still need to rest more. I'll take a taxi there later. Don't go out today."
"How can that be possible..."
"If you stay at home and rest obediently, I will come to accompany you after get off work in the evening." Hua Jin raised an eyebrow and looked at him, "Choose one, my dear boyfriend."
"I choose the second one." Pei Yan said, "I can choose not to send you off, but I will arrange a driver for you."
"Okay." Hua Jin pointed to the porridge bowl, "Then you eat well now, take the medicine after dinner, and then go to bed to rest. At noon, I will call the maid and ask her whether you have been obedient."
"So strict." Pei Yan pretended to be scared, "Huahua, if you continue like this, I will become a henpecked husband."
After saying this, he saw Hua Jin's eyebrows raised and her eyes widened as she stared at him, so he quickly changed his words and said, "But for you, I am willing to become a henpecked husband."
So, when will you be my wife?
At noon, the Xu family was having lunch. Suddenly, Xu Yi pushed open the door and walked in. He threw a thick stack of information on the table with a frosty face: "Pei Yan has gone crazy. He actually tore his face openly. Now everyone in the circle knows that Pei Yan is like a mad dog and is making things difficult for our Xu family. In just one day, the market value of our company evaporated by hundreds of millions. Changhui, Xiaosi, did you provoke this mad dog again?"
Xu Si and Xu Changhui were so frightened that they dared not speak. Xu Si put down his chopsticks and said, "Uncle, don't be anxious. If you have anything to say, just speak slowly. Changhui already knows he is wrong..."
"You don't have to speak for him. If he hadn't been so blind and provoked Pei Yan's girlfriend, how could he have caused so much trouble?"
Xu Si glanced at Xu Changhui, who was standing in front of Xu Yi, not even daring to breathe. "Uncle, the most urgent thing is not to worry about right or wrong, but to find a way to make Pei Yan stop targeting our family. What I am most worried about is that Pei Yan has a violent temper. If he wants to do something to Changhui, it will be troublesome. Otherwise, we should arrange for Changhui to go abroad to avoid the limelight, and then let him come back after Pei Yan calms down."
Xu Yi glanced at Xu Si without saying anything, then turned to ask Xu Changhui: "Tell me the truth, what did you do to make Pei Yan make such a big fuss to deal with us?"
"Dad..." Xu Changhui secretly looked upstairs, hoping that his grandfather would come down to save him.
"Don't look around. It's useless for anyone to plead for you today." Seeing Xu Changhui like this, Xu Yi knew that he had indeed caused trouble. He was angry and disappointed for a moment, and slammed the table angrily, "Why don't you tell me the whole story!"
Seeing Xu Yi getting so angry, Xu Qiang felt embarrassed to just sit there and watch the fun. He put down his chopsticks and said, "Second brother, if you have something to say, please speak slowly. How can he dare to tell the truth if you scare him like this?"
"If he still doesn't tell the truth, with Pei Yan's madness, who can save him?" Xu Yi looked tired, "Pei Yan acts according to his mood. He gives face to everyone, but sometimes he doesn't care about anyone's feelings. This time, for Changhui's matter, we have asked so many people to intercede for him. Do you think he has changed his mind?"
You can mess with anyone, but don’t mess with a madman.
"Then what should we do now?" Xu Qiang was a little scared. Although he was not very satisfied that all the power in the company was in Xu Yi's hands, if the company really went bankrupt, he would no longer be able to live a leisurely and wealthy life.
"Changhui, tell me the truth and tell me exactly what happened between you and Pei Yan."
Xu Changhui hummed and squeaked but didn't dare to speak.
"Xiao Si, you tell me." Xu Yi looked at Xu Si, "You've been with Chang Hui a lot recently, so you must know what's going on."
Xu Si looked at Xu Changhui, then at his family, and swallowed, "Six or seven years ago, Changhui drove while drunk and hit a pedestrian, causing serious injuries. Not only did Changhui not call the emergency number, he also... also..."
"What else do you want?" Old Master Xu walked down from upstairs on crutches.
Xu Si shrank his neck, not daring to look at Xu Changhui: "He also intended to reverse the car to crush the injured person, but Pei Yan happened to see him when the incident happened, and the injured person was rescued by Pei Yan."
"Because of this incident, Changhui was put in a detention center. You may still remember this incident." Xu Si's voice was trembling. "We just found out recently that the injured person who was almost crushed by Changhui for the second time was Pei Yan's current girlfriend Hua Jin."
"What did you say..." Old Master Xu leaned against the escalator railing, gasping for breath, "Didn't you tell me that Changhui accidentally hit a pedestrian because there was something wrong with the car he was driving?"
"How could there be so many carelessness? What happened six or seven years ago was carelessness, and half a year ago was carelessness..." Xu Qiang curled his lips and wanted to say a few more words, but when he saw that the old man was so angry that he fainted on the ground, he was so scared that he ran over to help him up, "Call an ambulance quickly."
"Xiao Si, bring your grandfather's heart pills."
The news that the old man of the Xu family was ill and hospitalized spread quickly. After visiting the patient, everyone stopped talking about the feud between the Xu family and Pei Yan.
There were elders who had good relations with the Xu and Peiliang families. Seeing the weak appearance of Mr. Xu lying on the hospital bed, they could not help but feel sympathy and wanted to speak a few good words for the Xu family in front of Pei Yan. However, Pei Yan, who always respected the elderly, did not even give face to the elders this time. Whenever someone mentioned the Xu family in front of him, he would find an excuse to leave.
After a while, everyone realized that Pei Yan was determined to make things difficult for the Xu family.
Shen Hong had never thought that the Xu family would eventually come to the Shen family for help. Glancing at the two brothers Xu Yi and Xu Qiang sitting in front of him, he poured tea for them: "I think the two uncles must know that although Pei Yan and I are cousins, he has always been principled in his actions since he was a child. No one can change what he has decided. I'm sorry that I can't do anything about your request."
"I know this request is difficult for you, but we really have no other choice. We want to go to Mr. Pei in person to apologize, but he doesn't even want to see us." Xu Yi stood up and bowed to Shen Hong. "No matter how wrong we are, it's all our Xu family's fault. We don't expect Mr. Pei to forgive us, but we just hope to see him."
Shen Hong slightly turned aside to avoid Xu Yi's bow, and the smile on his face faded: "Uncle Xu, I am just a junior, I cannot accept your gift. As for the grievances between the Xu family and my cousin, I have heard a little bit. But there is one thing I can't figure out. Xu Changhui almost killed my future cousins, but you didn't apologize to her, but just kept saying sorry to my brother. Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?"
For the sake of Mr. Xu, he said a few more words as a reminder to them.
"Willn't Mr. Pei still have the final say on this matter?" Xu Qiang said, "What can Hua Jin, an ordinary embroiderer, do?"
Hearing this, Shen Hong forced a polite smile and said, "In this case, I can't help the two elders. Please."
After all, the Xu family never took Hua Jin seriously from the beginning to the end, so the person they surrendered to and apologized to was only Pei Yan, whom they could not afford to offend.
There is really no need to have any contact with people whose hearts are not right.
After seeing off Xu Yi and Xu Qiang, Shen Hong called Pei Yan and told him what had just happened.
"You don't have to worry about them." Pei Yan held the phone in his left hand and held Hua Jin's hand with his right hand. He said in a good mood, "I don't have time to care about him now. I have more important things to do."
"What's the matter?" Shen Hong said, "The old man of the Xu family is still lying in the hospital. I think he will not come out of the hospital until you agree to meet the Xu family."
"Mr. Xu is old. It would be good for his health if he stays in the hospital for a few more days." Pei Yan said, "I have to go back to my hometown with my daughter Huahua to worship our ancestors. I don't have time to take care of him."
"Whose house are you going to worship your ancestors?" Shen Hong heard a hint of boasting in Pei Yan's words.
"Of course, we're going to Huahua's house to burn incense for Huahua's grandmother." Pei Yan couldn't suppress the smile on his face. "Rounding it off, this means meeting the parents and preparing for the marriage."
Shen Hong: "..."
He understood that this was indeed showing off.
After hanging up the phone, Pei Yan said to Hua Jin: "Come on, I'll take you to see our plane."
The two of them passed through a special passage. Hua Jin looked at the plane on the tarmac and tried her best to control her hands from wanting to take a photo: "Is this... yours?"
"What's mine and yours? What's mine is yours." Pei Yan took Hua Jin's hand and got on the plane. Hua Jin looked at the interior decoration and structure of the plane and suddenly understood the saying "poverty limits imagination".
"There is an airport in the urban area of Anonymous County. We were planning to fly there a few days ago, but it took some time to apply for the flight route." Pei Yan took Hua Jin to visit the interior structure of the plane, and there was actually a bed for people to sleep in.
"I'm the only one at home, so this plane is not very big." Pei Yan took Hua Jin to sit down, and several assistants and bodyguards who came with them also sat down. Hua Jin couldn't help it anymore, took out her mobile phone from her bag, pulled Pei Yan's head over, and the two of them got together and took a selfie.
"It's my first time riding a private jet in my life, I'm a little excited." Hua Jin took a few more photos and said to Pei Yan, "It's a pity that I have added too many of your current friends to my Moments, otherwise I would have posted a post to show off."
"Why bother with them?" Pei Yan said, "Just send them if you want."
"That won't do. I want to be an intellectual beauty in the eyes of your friends." Hua Jin shook her head repeatedly, "You can't let others think that you have bad taste and chose a superficial woman."
Pei Yan glanced at him silently, his eyes unclear.
"Can you explain to me what this look means?" Hua Jin stretched out her hand and twisted Pei Yan's ear. "I'll give you a chance to explain."
"Mr. Pei, the plane is about to take off. Is there anything you need?" The flight attendant came over and stood next to the two of them with a smile.
Hua Jin quickly let go of her hand and smiled politely at the flight attendant, as if the ferocity just now was just an illusion.
"No." Pei Yan covered Hua Jin's knees with a blanket.
"Okay, then I wish you and your friends a pleasant journey." The flight attendant's smile became even more perfect, but when she turned and left, Hua Jin inexplicably felt as if she saw something called "admiration" in her eyes.
No, no, no, in fact, she is a gentle, considerate and considerate beautiful girl...
"What's with that expression on your face?" Pei Yan saw Hua Jin looking dejected, and thought she was jealous of him and the flight attendant, so he leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Don't think too much. In my eyes, you're the prettiest."
"What are you talking about? I'm not that boring." Hua Jin said, "I was just wondering, what did that look you had just now mean?"
"What I mean is, why are you getting more and more stupid?" Pei Yan said, "Put my friends in a separate group and don't let them see this circle of friends."
"That's right." Hua Jin was stunned. "I've been with you for too long. I've become stupid."
"Hua Xiaojin, don't you feel guilty for saying this?" Pei Yan snatched Hua Jin's phone, put the photo of him and Hua Jin first, and then returned the phone to Hua Jin, "It's okay to show off your private jet, but don't forget its two owners."
"Childish." Hua Jin did not delete this photo, nor did she continue to post other photos. She edited a paragraph in her circle of friends.
Fanhua: It has been nearly eight years, I want to go back with him [Photo]
After clicking send, Hua Jin turned to Pei Yan and said, "I think showing off a private jet is not as interesting as showing off my handsome boyfriend."
This simple sentence made Pei Yan feel like he was soaking in a honey pot and he didn't want to get up again.
Hua Jin rarely posts her photos on WeChat Moments, and her boyfriend Pei Yan has only shown his face once on her WeChat Moments, and that was taken when they were not in a relationship.
As soon as this post was published on WeChat Moments, Hua Jin’s friends went crazy.
They all know that Hua Jin has a boyfriend, but many people don’t know that Hua Jin’s boyfriend is the extremely handsome man whose photos she once posted.
Friend 1: It's amazing, my sister Hua, she actually managed to win over this extremely handsome guy. I admire my sister Hua.
Friend 2: Single dog, just pick up this bowl of dog food silently.
Friend 3: Do you really want to go back?
After seeing this message, Hua Jin turned her head to look at Pei Yan beside her and replied to him.
Fanhua replied to Ergou’s cat: Well, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and I want to burn a stick of incense for my grandma.
Ergou's cat is Liu Qiu, a female college student who was on the train when Hua Jin fled her hometown. When Liu Qiu learned that it was her first time to travel far away, she not only bought her a box lunch on the train, but also told her a lot of scams that she needed to watch out for in big cities. Before they parted, she gave her contact information to Hua Jin.
Hua Jin has never lost contact with Liu Qiu over the years. Two years ago, Liu Qiu returned to Yiming County to work as a civil servant. Sometimes he would send Hua Jin specialties from his hometown, and Hua Jin would also send her scarves and shawls she made herself. However, the two never mentioned returning to Yiming County.
Liu Qiu knew how embarrassed Hua Jin was when he escaped from Yiming County, so he never thought that there would be a day when Hua Jin would come back.
Author's words: Hua Jin: Gentle as water, elegant and graceful. She won't hit anyone, at most she'll just be mean to them for a while.
