Chapter 50 Support
It was already nine o'clock in the evening when the four of them arrived at the hotel. Pei Yin parked the car at the door. Cun Xi had no intention of getting out of the car. Instead, he sat quietly aside and whispered to Pei Yin's parents behind him:
"Uncle, aunt, I won't take you upstairs. Pei Yin, I've already arranged a hotel. Someone will take you upstairs. I'll wait for you in the car."
Pei Yin just nodded slightly and got out of the car and left with her parents. Cunxi, who was sitting in the car, watched Pei Yin's figure disappear in the hotel lobby, then slowly closed his eyes. He was drunk and a little drowsy. He deliberately stayed in the car to give Pei Yin and her parents some space to talk. No matter what Pei Yin's parents' position was, as long as Pei Yin insisted, he would always stand by her side!
Pei Yin sent her parents to their room and wanted to leave after giving them some simple instructions, but was stopped by Pei's mother.
"Regarding your marriage with Chen Feng, I don't agree to your divorce no matter what!" Pei's mother said firmly.
"Whether you agree or not is your business, how to do it is my business"
Pei Yin's tone was very cold at the moment. Just now at the dinner table, Cunxi was present and Pei Yin didn't want to say much, but his mother's disrespectful words to Cunxi made Pei Yin very angry, so his tone of voice revealed a hint of dissatisfaction.
"You're not going home tonight. Are you planning to stay at Gu Cunxi's place?" Mother Pei asked unhappily.
"Is it not possible?"
"You... you have a home but you don't go back, so what's the point of living at her place? I heard from Chen Feng that woman has no self-control and a chaotic private life. She was so generous tonight, how much did it cost? Did she earn it herself?"
Pei Yin turned back to look at Fang Lan in shock, unable to understand her mother at this moment, and felt extremely disappointed...
"Mom... Cunxi was so kind to entertain you and Dad, booking the best meals and the best hotels for you. How could you..."
Pei Yin choked up as she spoke. For the first time in her life, she felt that her mother was so incapable of distinguishing right from wrong. Thinking of Cunxi, she felt guilty. She calmed down and continued.
"What you said today is really chilling. You slandered Cunxi's kindness like this. I feel sorry for her. Mom, when did you become like this? It's totally unreasonable!" Pei Yin stood at the door with a cold tone.
Pei's father also felt that Fang Lan's words were a bit too much. He walked to his daughter and patted Pei Yin's shoulder to comfort her. After the incident at Chen Feng's house today, Xiao Ping couldn't help but wonder if Chen Feng was not as good as he thought. Otherwise, his daughter would not be so determined and strong as to threaten to die in order to divorce Chen Feng. Although he loved money and face, he would not force his daughter to do anything if she was really unhappy. Thinking of this, Xiao Ping sighed and said
"Pei Yin, it's your decision. If you and Chen Feng really can't get along anymore... Dad won't force you, but I hope you've thought it over carefully. If you don't want to go home for the time being, it's okay to stay in Cunxi for a few days. I think that kid is pretty good. He's very measured in what he does and says, and he's well-spoken. You two girls can take care of each other. It was your mom who was wrong just now, so don't take it to heart. Thank that kid for us later."
Fang Lan, who was standing by, became increasingly dissatisfied after hearing this and kept insisting:
"What are you talking about? Let her decide for herself. Are you drunk? If you divorce Chen Feng, how can you live your good life now? I don't agree!"
“Alright!!”
Xiao Ping scolded Fang Lan loudly, then turned to Pei Yin and said softly
"It's getting late, you should go back and rest early."
Then he pulled Pei Yin out, leaving Fang Lan alone in the hotel room, furious.
"Dad, go back. You don't need to send me off. You and Mom should go to bed early." Pei Yin's tone was tired and helpless. She looked at Xiao Ping and said calmly.
"Pei Yin, can you tell Dad why you must divorce Chen Feng? Did he do anything wrong to you?"
Seeing his daughter beside him being silent, Xiao Ping became a little worried. After a while, he continued to speak.
"Before today, I was like your mother. I didn't want you to get divorced, because I think Chen Feng is not bad. Indeed, he is rich and powerful. Our family has benefited a lot from your marriage to him. But seeing you like that today, I know you are really unhappy and that's why you resorted to such means. Daddy won't force you. Don't worry about your mother. She can't make the decision. I am the one who makes the decision. If you are determined to get a divorce, Daddy supports you. I have lived with you for most of my life. Although money is good, I can't selfishly trade my daughter's happiness for it... I have already lost one child, and I can't lose another. Don't do anything as extreme as you did today in the future."
When Xiao Ping said this, his voice was calm but trembling with a hint of apology, which made Pei Yin feel sad.
"Dad, I'm sorry for making you worry. Don't worry about the money. I will always do my best for you and Mom."
"Silly child, your mother and I have money too. We have been too selfish these years, always trying to use money to support the lost face. But today... the moment you put the knife to your wrist, I knew we were wrong. We have ignored your feelings and forced you too much over the years. Pei Yin, don't blame Dad, okay?"
Xiao Ping's voice was choked with sobs, his old face was full of apology, and his eyes were red. Pei Yin felt more and more complicated when he saw his father like this.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It's all in the past. Go do what you want from now on and try to make yourself happy, no matter who you're with!"
Pei Yin remained silent, her heart aching and tears streaming down her red cheeks. She walked beside Xiao Ping and nodded quietly.
The two walked out of the hotel and saw Cunxi's car parked on the side. Xiao Ping walked over and gently knocked on the car window.
"Cunxi, thank you for hosting us tonight."
Gu Cunxi was drowsy because of the alcohol. When he saw Pei Yin and Xiao Ping standing in front of the car, he hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
"Uncle, you're welcome. Pei Yin and I are not only colleagues, but we also have a good relationship in private. Since you and Auntie are here, I must treat you well."
"Are you okay after drinking all that wine tonight?" Xiao Ping asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's okay. I had a great time drinking with my uncle today. I haven't had a drink like this in a long time."
"I'm glad you're okay. Will my daughter's stay at your place disturb you?"
Gu Cunxi quickly waved his hands, a little nervous, and Pei Yin, who was standing beside him, secretly suppressed his laughter.
"Of course not! I will... take good care of Pei Yin, uncle, please rest assured."
Xiao Ping smiled with satisfaction, turned to look at Pei Yin and said softly: "Okay, I'll trouble you with my daughter. It's getting late, you should go back and rest early, and be careful on the road."
Xiao Ping turned and left, leaving Pei Yin with only his back...
Watching Xiao Ping disappear in front of the elevator door, Pei Yin turned and looked at Cunxi. Perhaps because of the alcohol, Cunxi's eyes were a little blurry at the moment, and his cheeks were rosy, which was a bit seductive...
"Let's go home... Cunxi"
"Huh?"
Seeing Gu Cunxi standing there, staring at him blankly with a pair of beautiful eyes, Pei Yin couldn't help laughing. He walked up to her, put his arm around her waist, and whispered softly in her ear:
"Take me back to your home!"
Gu Cunxi's heartbeat quickened at those words, and his face flushed instantly. The strong hand on his waist rubbed his lower back, making him feel tingly. Cunxi felt like a beast in his heart, unable to calm down. The fragrance coming from Pei Yin was more intoxicating than wine...
"Let's go! Go home!"
Gu Cunxi pulled Pei Yin into the car and drove away at high speed.
"Pei Pei, stop by the pharmacy," Cunxi said lightly.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Is your stomach upset?" Pei Yin's tone became a little anxious. Seeing that Cunxi closed his eyes slightly and did not respond to him, Pei Yin did not speak anymore and gradually stepped on the accelerator.
"Cunxi...what medicine do you want to buy? Is it stomach medicine? I'll go buy it for you."
Pei Yin gently pushed Cunxi who was leaning beside him.
"Wait for me in the car!"
After saying that, she quickly got out of the car and walked towards the pharmacy. Pei Yin wanted to follow her, but Gu Cunxi's tone sounded a little dull, as if he was unhappy. For some reason, he was fine just now...
After buying it, Cunxi hurried back, holding a small bag in his hand, and sat aside without saying a word.
"Cunxi...what's wrong? Do you have a stomachache?"
"No, don't worry, go back first."
Seeing that Cunxi didn't say anything, Pei Yin had no choice but to restart the car, thinking about going back quickly.
After they returned home, Cunxi took Pei Yin's arm and led her to sit on the sofa. He took out a small ice pack from the bag and handed it to Pei Yin.
"Apply it... Does it still hurt?"
"Um?"
"I'm talking about your face! Does it hurt?" Gu Cunxi asked with a tone full of heartache and a hint of anger.
In fact, I saw Pei Yin's cheeks flushed as soon as she came out of the community, and I felt very distressed... But because her parents were there, I couldn't say anything. I thought it must not be Chen Feng's doing. Even if he was something, he wouldn't dare to do it in front of Pei Yin's parents. After thinking about it, the only one who could do it was Pei Yin's mother...
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore, don't be so nervous." Pei Yin said softly, and put an ice pack on her cheek. Although it was cold, her heart was warm.
"I'm so useless..." Gu Cunxi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, his tone full of self-blame, his beautiful eyebrows tightly wrinkled together.
Pei Yin looked at the person squatting in front of him for a long time, his eyes blurred by the tears. Seeing Gu Cunxi blaming himself like this made Pei Yin feel very sad.
"Cunxi..."
"Um?"
Pei Yin did not speak again. After a long silence, he reached out and pulled Cunxi towards him and kissed her. The mellow aroma of white wine deepened the kiss... For Pei Yin, kissing the one he loves is probably the sweetest and happiest thing in the world, no doubt about it.
Because he was already drowsy from the alcohol, Pei Yin's kiss made Cunxi lose control for a while, and his movements became more and more intense. He raised his hand to unbutton Pei Yin's chest, one, two... the white skin was exposed in front of him
“Pei Pei…”
"I do," Pei Yin said with a trembling voice.
Cunxi's hands stopped in the air, he was struggling in his heart, but he finally reached out to help Pei Yin put on the clothes and buttoned them up again.
Pei Yin lay on the sofa in a daze, a sense of loss and sadness flashing through her heart. She wondered if Cunxi didn't say it, but in his heart he still minded the fact that he had been married and had given birth to a child for someone else...
Cunxi stood still, calmed his inner desire, picked up the water on the table and drank it.
"sorry…"
“???”
Cunxi was confused for a moment, not knowing why Pei Yin suddenly apologized.
"If you mind..."
Before Pei Yin finished speaking, Cunxi quickly stepped forward and blocked Pei Yin's words with a kiss.
"You misunderstood! Idiot, why would I mind!"
"Pei Pei, it's just... I want to wait until we are honest and upright. I... really want to, but if that really happens, you will feel burdened, and so will I. I will wait for you, I am willing to wait for you!"
