Gu Jinchen's expression froze for a moment, then he realized that Pei Qinghuan was explaining to him.
"No, what I just said was..."
How could she think that I was just pretending in front of Mr. Gu with her!
But Gu Jinchen had only said half of his words when he felt that he had no way to explain it.
If he suddenly explained now, would this woman think that he cared about her? Damn it.
Gu Jinchen muttered something, but Pei Qinghuan didn't care when he saw that he hadn't finished speaking.
In her heart, she and Gu Jinchen were just pretending to be a couple. What's more, she had signed such an agreement with Gu Jinchen not long ago.
She should be more sober.
Gu Jinchen only saw the woman blink, and then put on a polite smile.
She may think that she has disguised herself well, but unfortunately, in the eyes of a man like Gu Jinchen, not a single expression of a woman can escape his eyes.
Damn it, does this woman really treat him as an outsider?
Gu Jinchen felt very uncomfortable. As for where the discomfort came from, he didn't think about it too much. He just felt a lump in his chest.
…
The young couple started to be polite, but Old Mrs. Pei went back and distanced herself from the matter.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that my granddaughter is too stubborn and refuses to do anything. I also want to do something for the village."
Old Mrs. Pei has always cared about her reputation. Now that her granddaughter has finally made some money, she brags about it a lot, and all the neighbors want to borrow money from her.
Now she went back in disgrace. Not only did she fail to borrow any money, but she also failed to complete the road construction that she promised to the village chief. It was really embarrassing.
How could she face the people in the village now?
"Pei family, you promised to build a road for the village. I was about to prepare a banner for you. Now you're so embarrassed."
The village chief smiled at her awkwardly, feeling uncomfortable.
Even more uncomfortable were Pei Qinghuan's uncle and aunt, "Really, this little niece is disobedient, how can we not lend her money? We are her elders!"
"This, this doesn't count. If she doesn't want to lend me the money, there's nothing I can do."
"How about this, let's go find her in person. It must be because we're not here, and her niece is worried, so let's go find her in person."
In fact, Pei Qinghuan's uncle Pei Zhuangyu was so anxious because he had gambled away money without telling his wife and was anxious to pay it back. Knowing that his niece was rich, he quickly asked Pei Qinghuan to borrow money.
I didn't expect Pei Qinghuan to refuse?!
Mrs. Pei always listened to him and thought he was going to open a shop outside, so she nodded.
"Okay, then we'll go there again."
Pei Qinghuan had just taken care of Pei's mother and also asked Pei Anan to stay in the hospital for a checkup during the recent period.
Before she even left the hospital, she ran into a group of familiar people in the hospital corridor.
If it wasn’t Lu Zhicheng who brought Li Jing’er with him, then who else could it be?
"Pei Qinghuan! I'm telling you, delete the post online as soon as possible. I've already given you all the money for the medical expenses, so why are you still holding on to us?!"
Seeing Lu Zhicheng's posture, Pei Qinghuan's face looked a little ugly.
"What do you mean? That's my post. Why should I delete it? Lu Zhicheng, I'm warning you. You just went to the police station with us. What are you going to do now?"
Lu Zhicheng was almost going crazy. "What am I doing? Your post is affecting my work! I'm telling you, if you don't delete it, I can sue you for infringing my reputation!"
He and Li Jing'er racked their brains in the police station. Wasn't it the recent mess with Pei An'an that was posted on the Internet?
The online public opinion was too loud, which led to the threat to Lu Zhicheng's career.
The most terrible thing was Li Jing'er. She felt that she had never been so aggrieved. She actually lost her job.
She had never seen the sister of the original wife stand up for the original wife like this before. She was so angry that her heart was pounding. After all, this is a big company. She must be so happy to be able to join this company after just graduating.
Li Jing'er would not be happy if she lost her job because of Lu Zhicheng.
"Has it affected your work? Now you know how anxious I am."
Pei Qinghuan sneered and glanced at Li Jing'er and Lu Zhicheng.
"It's not impossible for me to forgive you for deleting the post."
Li Jing'er's eyes lit up.
"Well, would you like to?"
Pei Qinghuan stared at Lu Zhicheng with a cold gaze, "Divorce my sister, leave the house, and I will delete the post."
Lu Zhicheng almost doubted his ears.
He had wanted to divorce Pei Anan for a long time, but he was reluctant to give up his property, that huge sum of money, and he was cheating on his wife.
Lu Zhicheng is very clear about this. As long as he divorces Pei Anan, most of his money will be divided away, and he will be heartbroken.
"No! What happened between your sister and me is between the two of us. You have no right to ask me to divorce her."
Lu Zhicheng refused without blinking.
Li Jing'er, who was standing by, originally lit up her eyes, but was dumbfounded the next second when she heard these words.
"No divorce?"
