Chapter 110 She hadn’t smiled at Pei Jian like this for a long time

Pei Jian was very tall. He stood in front of Wen's father and blocked the man tightly.

The playboy's stick couldn't hit him at all.

But he still endured it for a while, then he grabbed the long pole with his backhand and kicked the man to the ground.

There were many onlookers around. The man lost face and was almost sober. He was helped up from the ground by his servants and said arrogantly, "You dare to hit me? Do you know who I am?"

Wen Qingheng and his sister had already pushed through the crowd and ran quickly to Wen Yuanqiao's side.

"Dad, are you okay?"

Wen Yuanqiao was still a little confused at this time.

He had just attended the party with great satisfaction and was walking out with Pei Jian.

Although Pei Jian was a young man, he had a lot of reading experience. He was very knowledgeable when discussing poetry and painting with a group of literati, which made him very proud.

Today is the winter solstice, and the family has been busy since early morning. Wen Yuanqiao originally wanted to invite Pei Jian to visit his house. Unexpectedly, when he was leaving the house, he didn't pay attention and bumped into a playboy.

This is not a big deal, both parties are at fault.

But this young man refused to give in and insisted that Wen Yuanqiao pay compensation and apologize, with a bad attitude and crude words.

Wen Yuanqiao has always valued his reputation the most. How could he get involved with a scoundrel and bring disgrace upon himself?

But the things in this world cannot be avoided just because you want to.

Especially when dealing with a rogue, the more tolerant you are, the more he will demand more.

So the scene that Nianxi and the others saw happened.

Nianxi actually had a backup plan.

She asked someone to hire a few thugs in the East Market, and once a conflict occurred, they would go up and beat the group.

Seeing this person being so arrogant, she was about to step forward and wink at the crowd.

Today, I must beat this scoundrel so hard that he can't get up.

Pei Jian, however, seemed to have expected this. He turned his head to look at her, shook his head slightly at her, and then threw the long pole in his hand aside. He said in a cold voice:

"It doesn't matter who you are. Zhang Hongzhe, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, has failed to educate his son properly. He allowed his son to commit crimes in the streets and attack officials appointed by the imperial court. Your name will be reported to the government."

He even smiled as he spoke, but that smile was only superficial. His dark eyes concealed a deep ancient beast, and when he stared at people, it made people shiver from the bottom of their hearts.

Even an old minister with many years of service would feel weak in the knees and nervous when being stared at like this, let alone a mere dandy young man.

As expected, the playboy was frightened to the point of losing his momentum. He stammered twice, broke through the crowd and staggered away.

A disaster was eliminated without a trace.

In the previous life, Wen Yuanqiao had a conflict with the dude for the same reason. However, when Wen Yuanqiao was trying to avoid the long pole, he fell heavily, causing his bones to be dislocated, and it took him half a year to recover.

This is not the worst.

Father Wen attached great importance to the integrity of scholars, but he was bullied by a scoundrel, which made him depressed and became visibly depressed.

The whole family is worried.

The culprit was merely brought to the door, given gifts and apologized, and then continued to play games in the world.

Nian Xi originally wanted to file a complaint, but Wen's father fell down himself, and the two of them had at most an argument, so it was difficult to punish him severely.

In the end, I can only let it go.

Finally, justice was done. This playboy was pushed down from the second floor of the brothel because of jealousy. From then on, he had to stay in bed for the rest of his life.

Today, Nian Xi originally wanted revenge, and she took great pains to gather a group of idle people just to vent her anger for her father.

"Shi Zhang, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Wen Qingheng asked.

Pei Jian first glanced in Nianxi's direction, then lowered his head and moved his right arm, saying in a light tone, "The winter shirt is thick, it won't be a problem."

Father Wen was originally talking to Nian Xi, and upon hearing this he also said, "Yes, Shi Zhang, I am sorry for what I did to you just now."

Seeing Pei Jian moving his right arm, he became worried again, "It's the right arm that's injured. This is not good. I'd better go to the hospital to have a look."

Pei Jian just said it was okay and still did not agree.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Nian Xi again.

During this period of time, he really experienced what it meant to be nervous and anxious.

With Zhou Yanli, a scheming wolfhound standing by and watching closely, Pei Jian was afraid that Nian Xi would be moved.

He couldn't even imagine being a little moved, let alone accept it.

But he didn't dare to appear in front of her too often, for fear of annoying her, so he could only go in and out of the front yard of the Wen Mansion when he had nothing to do, hoping to meet her.

He just couldn't bear the fact that his future life would have nothing to do with her and they would be strangers to each other.

But this time, Pei Jian didn't want her to misunderstand that he had ulterior motives.

Although most of the time, his motives were not pure, including getting close to and pleasing Father Wen, but he appeared here today not just for Nian Xi.

In his previous life, they had been married for ten years, and he had called Wen's father his father-in-law for ten years. Pei Jian's own parents died early, "a son wants to take care of his parents but they are no longer around", so in his heart, he treated Wen's father and mother as his own parents.

Now that he is reborn, even though they are no longer father-in-law and son-in-law, he will do his best to help and avoid trouble.

This is his true heart.

"If you feel unwell, it's better to go to the clinic."

Nian Xi feels this affection in her heart.

No matter what Pei Jian's purpose was, at least his father was spared from suffering.

This is the most important fact.

"My right arm does hurt a little," Pei Jian finally waited for Nian Xi to speak, and immediately replied, "Maybe it's better to take a look."

Nian Xi nodded and said to Wen Qingheng, "Brother, you accompany Pei... Langjun to the clinic. Father and I will go home first."

Pei Jian and Wen Qingheng were both stunned for a moment.

"I'll go?"

"No need."

They both spoke at the same time, looked at each other, and then looked away in disgust.

Nian Xi was originally feeling a little depressed because of her father's matter, but when she saw the silly looks on their faces, she couldn't help but laugh.

Her eyebrows were curved and a faint smile appeared on her lips, like ripples caused by falling flowers in March.

Pei Jian was stunned for a moment.

It had been so long since he had seen her smile at him like this.

The girls in the palace are pure and have clear likes and dislikes. Nianxi is the most lovable one!

His heart suddenly began to beat like a drum.

It was as if some exciting emotions were injected into his already mature soul, and his young body also became boiling with blood.

At that time, she often smiled at him like this and called him "husband" sweetly.

"Husband, the magnolia in the corridor has bloomed. I want to make scented tea with it."

"Husband, the weather is really nice today. Can we move the dining table to the yard?"

"My dear, don't drink too much. Otherwise, you are not allowed to enter the inner room tonight. Go to the study to sleep!"

Pei Jian looked at Nian Xi's smile almost greedily, and his heart ached with longing for her.

He has already realized his mistakes. Can he still have another chance to make amends?

He will never forget that he loves her.

It was rare to see Pei Jian showing such open joy.

He was born to be steady and reserved, cold and apathetic, or calm and arrogant.

Far more mature than his peers.

Such a rare moment of daze was simply enough to amaze Wen Qingheng.

He glanced at his sister who was laughing heartlessly, and immediately changed his mind. He said very considerately, "Come on, Shi Zhang, I'll take you to the clinic."

Pei Jian certainly wanted Nian Xi to be with him, but he also knew that this was unrealistic and she would not agree, so he quietly changed his tone, "It's not serious, so there's no need to go to the hospital."

Rather than having Wen Qingheng stay with him, it would be better not to go.

His words and expressions showed his disgust towards Wen Qingheng.

Wen Qingheng immediately frowned and glared.

He didn't enjoy this kind of treatment when he was in Gu Ci!

If you don’t want to go, then don’t go!

Before he could say anything, Father Wen had already said goodbye to his friends and walked over to his son and daughter, "It's still early, let's go to the clinic with Shi Zhang first, and then we can go back home."

Wen Qingheng: ...
