Chapter 127 A Poor Bug Who Can’t Get Love

Xu Wanxin always believed that Pei Jian would have a place for her in his heart.

After all, she was Pei's mother's favorite girl when she was alive.

Even if Pei Jian didn't care about her, didn't he care about his own mother?

"Cousin, have you forgotten that your aunt wants you to take care of me for the rest of your life?"

Xu Wanxin's face was as pale as white, but her eyes were red. She could no longer pretend, and stared at him, her eyelashes trembling slightly. "Just because of Wen Nianxi, you want to end our relationship of more than ten years?"

Pei Jian had a dull expression and a cold voice, "Affection? When have we ever had affection between you and me? I never made any promise to you, and my mother is certainly not your shield."

He stared at Xu Wanxin intently, calmly without a trace of emotion, "I really don't like your likes."

If before today, he still cared about their past friendship, after today, he would start to examine this woman seriously.

Xu Wanxin's lips had gradually turned purple, and her hands hanging at her sides were clenched into fists.

Pei Jian's calm words and cold attitude were like steel nails that pierced her body, causing blood and foam to fly, puncturing all her desires for the past ten years.

She never dared to express her love for fear of being rejected mercilessly by him.

It was inevitable that he would hesitate and feel miserable, "Cousin, you have such a cruel heart."

Pei Jian hated entanglements the most in his life.

I felt a pang of disgust at the thought that he might have been involved with another woman for decades.

He had finished what he wanted to say, and turned away, refusing to look at her again.

What Xu Wanxin feared most was his indifference and disregard.

It was as if she was just a dead object in front of him, not a living person.

"Is Wen Nianxi so good?"

She was mad and was so irritated that she didn't care about anything else. "Not to mention that she and Gu Ci had an unclear relationship, when Gu Ci went to war, there were always people around her! Gu Ci was so good to her, why couldn't she stay by his side? She was always provoking this one and getting entangled with that one!

"Cousin, please wake up. How can such a woman who is so frivolous be worthy of your love?"

Disgust finally welled up in Pei Jian's calm eyes.

He turned his head and saw that face was twisted by malice and jealousy, no longer having her usual gentle and pitiful expression. Pei Jian suddenly realized that this moment was her truest state.

Stripped of all disguises, only a sad, ugly, and malicious body remained.

“Because she’s real.”

Pei Jian lowered his eyes, only disgust remained in his gaze, "Everyone has desires. She has never concealed or pretended."

Speaking of Nianxi, his tone became noticeably softer, "Nianxi's love and hate are very clear. She is passionate and beautiful, and hateful too."

Nianxi's love has always been exclusive and wholehearted.

When she loved him in her previous life, she never responded to Zhou Yanli at all. She gave him a complete sense of security.

And when this love is finally exhausted, she will let go and turn away without any regrets.

The same goes for comments.

In front of him, she never concealed her kindness to Gu Ci and warned him again and again not to bully Gu Ci. Her eyes never lingered on anyone else.

Xu Wanxin's eyes were instantly filled with tears.

She saw Pei Jian's gentleness when he talked about Wen Nianxi. She was extremely angry and hateful. She trembled and spoke word by word:

"She's a whore."

She thought that her anger would be very loud, but in fact her voice was smaller than usual, with a desperate roar squeezed out from her heart and lungs, "I am devoted to you!"

Pei Yan's expression grew colder and colder.

He walked up to Xu Wanxin.

The air around seemed to be stagnant, and the sound of footsteps was infinitely amplified, as if stepping on people's hearts. The maid hiding on the side was so scared that she dared not breathe, and Xu Wanxin, who was in the center of the storm, tried hard to look back, but she could not control her body and trembled continuously.

"This world is harsh on women, but there are always people like you who humiliate fellow women for a man. This doesn't make you look loyal, but more like a poor insect that can't get love."

Xu Wanxin was tortured by his words. She was so heartbroken that she wanted to die, but her body was still awake.

She wanted him to shut up, but she couldn't speak. Her chest felt stuffy and she was about to suffocate. She gritted her teeth and endured it, trying to save the situation once again. She raised her red eyes and said, "Cousin, I said something wrong. Please don't be angry, okay? I was wrong. I was sad for a moment and said something I didn't think about."

Pei Jian stared at her.

The face was pale and blue, with deep hatred and unwillingness in the eyes, but the expression was clear again.

He felt very strange.

In her past and present life, what kind of woman is Xu Wanxin?

"I am not the one you are humiliating, and I am not the one you should apologize to."

Pei Jian's voice was cold and indifferent, as if he was talking to a stranger, "I'm not your cousin, don't show up in front of me again."

Xu Wanxin's purple lips were trembling, and her whole body was colder than the weather in the coldest days of winter. She struggled not to fall down, and couldn't believe Pei Yan's ruthlessness.

"Don't play tricks. I'm not a gentleman, and I won't show mercy to women."

After saying that, Pei Jian turned around and walked into the house without even looking at her.

Xu Wanxin could no longer hold on and sat down softly on the ground.

After a moment, housekeeper Li came over, holding the food box she brought, and looked down, "Master has ordered that Miss Xu is not allowed to enter Pei's house again in the future."

…

After nightfall, there was plenty of singing and dancing in the capital.

The entire Yanyu Tower was booked by the banquet host. Tingfeng Pavilion is located in the most secluded part of Yanyu Tower, with a waterside pavilion by the pool, which is the most beautiful scenery in the world.

As soon as Lu Wensheng got off the car, he was welcomed in.

At this time, a dancer in light clothing was singing and dancing in the center of the elegant room. When he arrived, the dancer glanced at him gracefully, with spring feelings in her eyebrows and eyes.

She poured a glass of wine and presented it gracefully. The jade disk was faintly visible under the light red gauze, making her skin look as white as mutton-fat jade.

Xiao Xun was sitting at the head of the table, and said to Lu Wensheng with a smile, "Uncle, it's too late today, you should punish yourself by drinking three cups."

"I was delayed."

The dancer had a charming figure. Seeing that Lu Wensheng did not take the cup, she leaned forward again and offered it. She was stopped by the guards beside him, "Your Excellency has a weak stomach and cannot drink on an empty stomach. Your Highness, I accept your kindness on your behalf."

Having said this, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

The dancer did not dare to stop him and turned her head to look up.

Xiao Xun's face darkened slightly, then he smiled again, "Uncle doesn't like prostitutes. This is a newly trained girl. Today she is here to entertain you. Uncle doesn't have any family in the inner house, so why not have some fun?"

Lu Wensheng raised his hand while holding the wine cup. The lantern in the corner of the room further illuminated his elegant and gentlemanly demeanor. He smiled and said, "I am tired today."

The rejection was obvious.

However, Xiao Xun refused to give up.

The Queen had always told him to listen to his uncle, and he was close to his uncle. But as he grew older, he started to think for himself, and relying on his status as a descendant of a royal family, he gradually became more presumptuous in front of Lu Wensheng.

He is young and full of energy, and his reckless nature is obvious. He often likes to be smart, and has done some stupid things recently.

The Yanyin corruption case has not yet been concluded. The Lianghuai Salt Field is full of complicated problems. Pei Jian is an experienced official. Just fixing the loopholes has given Lu Wensheng a headache for several days.

"Xiangfu," Xiao Xun looked at the dancer in front of Lu Wensheng, with a cold smile on his lips and a dagger-like gaze, "Try harder."

Among the men in the high-ranking families in Beijing, who is not fond of romance?

Pianlu Wensheng was a clean and single man. He had always refused many banquets. When he couldn't refuse, he would just drink quietly and would not even look at women.

Xiao Xun just thought that his uncle was just pretending to be noble.

We are all men, so who is more gentlemanly than whom?

Today I will make this fragrant beauty break his vow.
