"But, Zhicheng, I..."
"But what? I told you, I'm busy today, could you please stop being unreasonable?"
Pei Anan wanted to say something else, but Lu Zhicheng interrupted her rudely.
"I'm telling you, Pei An'an, I'm very busy. The company's affairs have already racked my brains. Could you please stop chattering around me so loudly?"
Pei Anan was stunned for a moment, then timidly retracted his hand.
She stood on the balcony and watched that Lu Zhicheng would rather lower his head to play with his mobile phone than chat with her.
She looked at it for a long time before finally giving up and turning back to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Pei's mother was still muttering to Pei Qinghuan unhappily, "You're just too clueless. You must remember to discuss this with your husband. It would be best if he agreed to let Zhicheng help find a job."
"Okay, Mom, stop talking."
Pei Qinghuan was washing grapes impatiently. When Pei's mother saw Pei Anan coming back, she frowned and looked unhappy.
"Why are you back again? What's wrong? I asked you to talk to Zhicheng. Are you annoying me?"
"No, mom, it's Zhicheng..."
"Okay, hurry up and send the fruit to Zhicheng. An'an, you must hold on to Zhicheng tightly. Hurry up and send the fruit to him."
Pei Anan hesitated to speak, but when she saw that Pei Ma was determined, she nodded cautiously, "Okay."
She carried the fruit, walked through the living room, and walked out to the balcony with her head down.
Lu Zhicheng was obviously on the phone.
"It's still comfortable to chat with you."
Pei Anan paused while holding the fruit and stopped to look at Lu Zhicheng's expression.
There was a clear trace of gentle patience on his face, in contrast to the impatience and boredom he faced.
"It's not that I have conflicts with my family, I just feel that marriage is too boring sometimes."
Pei Anan's face turned pale, and she froze in her tracks as she was about to move forward. What he meant was, marry her? Too boring?
Lu Zhicheng laughed without saying a word, "Jing'er, it's okay. Just call me boldly in the future. We can talk about anything. What are you afraid of? Don't worry about misunderstandings."
Pei Anan then realized that when she asked him to come over, he would rather be bored on the balcony and talk on the phone with Li Jing'er than even look at her.
Lu Zhicheng was really bored at this time. He felt it was meaningless and he and his uncle showed off a lot.
I didn't see any other expression on the uncle's face. He was pretending to be virtuous with Pei Anan at the dinner table, but now he was tired of pretending.
He wanted to avoid Pei Anan and go to the balcony to smoke. He didn't want to see Pei Anan's face.
It happened that Li Jing'er called her at this time. Lu Zhicheng was startled at first, and then he felt inexplicably happy in his heart.
Ever since Li Jing'er said that her boyfriend was going to the hotel to see him, Lu Zhicheng tossed and turned and couldn't sleep the whole night he returned home.
He felt uncomfortable all over, especially when he thought about what might have happened between Li Jing'er and his boyfriend in the hotel, he...
When Lu Zhicheng received Li Jing'er's call, he was even more excited. He restrained his excitement and spoke to her gently.
It was hard to hide the excitement in her heart. This feeling was strange, just like when she met Pei Anan before marriage, except that Pei Anan had become uglier, a little fatter, and didn't know how to dress up.
When he saw Pei Anan now, he no longer had the same feeling as before.
"Master, how are you and your wife? Are you two okay? I hope your wife won't misunderstand me calling you like this."
Li Jing'er's voice was timid, and Lu Zhicheng could imagine Li Jing'er's lovely face with red eyes.
"No, how could there be a misunderstanding? There is absolutely no misunderstanding. Jing'er, it's still comfortable chatting with you."
Lu Zhicheng's voice was sincere when he said this, which made Li Jing'er's voice on the opposite side even more gentle.
"Master, you are so mean. I feel embarrassed by what you said..."
As the two chatted, Lu Zhicheng felt that he had become as younger as Li Jing'er.
The corners of his lips couldn't stop rising, and he didn't notice Pei Anan in the corner of the balcony at all, nor did he notice that she was standing there with a pale face.
Li Jing'er chatted gently with Lu Zhicheng for a while, and only spoke apologetically after a while.
"Master, I didn't mean to look for you, it's really, really..."
"What's wrong, Jing'er? Don't cry?"
Li Jing'er started sobbing even more aggrievedly. "No man is good. My boyfriend came to the hotel that day, and he was rough with me. We slept together all night, and he left the next day."
What men like most is this kind of drama of saving weak women. When they heard that Li Jing'er was left alone in the hotel,
Lu Zhicheng's voice was even more indignant. "How could he do this to you? Jing'er, don't cry. I'll be there now."
"No, Master, this is inappropriate. You are still with Master's Wife. She will think there is something going on between us. I don't want people to misunderstand. Everything is clear between us."
Li Jing'er was still crying and refusing, and Lu Zhicheng felt more and more sorry for her.
"Don't be afraid Jing'er, don't worry, no one will misunderstand."
Li Jing'er's crying subsided. "Okay, thank you, Master. Please come to the hotel and save me. That bastard took all my money. I'm penniless now..."
"Okay, okay, Jing'er, don't worry, don't worry, I'll come find you right now."
Lu Zhicheng was very excited at this moment. He didn't know why he was so excited. He hung up the phone and rushed there.
When I lowered my head, I saw Pei Anan standing at the door.
She stood in the sun, holding grapes and looking at herself quietly.
Realizing that she had just heard his phone call, and not knowing how much she had heard, Lu Zhicheng's face turned ugly.
"Pei Anan, how can you be so disgusting as to eavesdrop on other people's phone calls? Is this what a wife should do? Do you really not trust me?"
Pei Anan didn't expect that he could actually turn the tables on her. She opened her eyes wide.
"Zhicheng, I didn't mean to listen, it was you..."
"That's enough. I don't want to hear your explanation now. I'm going out now. I'm in a hurry, get out of the way quickly."
Pei Anan was still standing at the door, gritting his teeth, "Are you going to look for Li Jing'er?"
Lu Zhicheng's expression became even uglier. He looked at Pei An'an with a bad look in his eyes. "So what? I went to see her for official business. Forget it. I can't explain it to a woman like you. You have long hair but short knowledge."
Pei Anan couldn't help but said, "Li Jing'er is also a woman!"
"She is completely different from a unreasonable woman like you. Go away."
Lu Zhicheng pushed Pei Anan away forcefully and walked out in a hurry without even looking back at Pei Anan who was pushed aside.
Pei Anan was pushed aside, and she watched helplessly as the grapes scattered all over the ground, just like their marriage.
