Chapter 217 He finally saw his wife again

Pei Jian is now in the capital, and his power is enormous.

It took the secret guards less than two hours to find out where Nianxi lived. However, it was far away, so Pei Jian had to wait for half a day.

This means that it would take Pei Jian a long time to travel from the capital to his villa in Peishan.

By the time he arrived, it was already dark.

But Nian Xi is not here.

The servants serving here were all brought by Nianxi from her mother's home. Facing the pressure from the guards, they refused to reveal Nianxi's whereabouts.

Pei Jian felt much more relieved.

He first took a walk around the main house.

This bedroom is small, with a bad orientation, the bed is not a step-out bed, the quilt is not soft enough, the furniture is a bit old, the colors are not bright, and it looks gloomy...

The teapot and teacup were just ordinary white porcelain, and one of the teacups even had a chip on it.

How to say it?

If Pei Jian lived in this house by himself, there would be no problem at all. But if he asked Nian Xi to live in it, there would be problems everywhere.

He believed that he had provided the best life for his wife, and all his efforts were to make Nianxi live a comfortable life.

The conditions in other industries are really terrible.

How can Nianxi live here?

Is the quilt too hard? Will the teacup scratch your lips?

Pei Jian originally wanted to go to the kitchen, but now it seems that there is no need.

Nianxi shouldn't live in a place like this.

After looking at the environment, he walked out.

Nian Xi must be nearby.

But in which direction?

Pei Jian looked around and thought for a moment before he walked towards the small hill not far away.

There is a saying that goes "homesickness makes one feel timid", this description is certainly not accurate, but it can well reflect Pei Jian's feelings at the moment.

As I walked, the feeling of that night came back to me again.

His heart was beating fast, he felt inexplicably tense and excited, with deep desire and anticipation, he felt like he was being manipulated by someone, unable to control his body or mind.

At this moment, there is only one thought left:

Go see her now!

And when he finally saw that slender and graceful figure, he almost trembled and stumbled forward.

It feels like a separation between past and present lives, or a lifetime of loneliness.

Such a short journey seems as long as a lifetime.

He couldn't help but quicken his pace and ran towards her.

But soon, Pei Jian stopped.

Because he saw another man beside Nianxi.

Tall, majestic, and as gentle as the wind.

They stood side by side, without saying a word, but they had thousands of words to say, scattered in the early autumn night breeze.

Pei Jian's heart seemed to be grasped by an invisible hand, making it difficult for him to breathe and causing him great pain.

Is it late again?

Another step late, eh?

Does that mean he has no home and will be alone all his life?

He was almost frightened by such depressing thoughts and inner struggles.

He was such a timid coward that he dared not take another step forward.

Gu Ci saw him first.

They grew up together, but they hadn't seen each other for more than a decade. Gu Ci was stunned for a moment before he realized that the man in front of him, who looked a little panicked and sad, was his best brother.

Pei Jian, Pei Shizhang!

"Shi Zhang!"

Gu Ci turned around and walked back, striding up to him, her eyes sparkling with light, "Do you still remember me?"

Pei Jian regained his sanity.

Look into the eyes of the strong and majestic man in front of you.

Compared with the crisp and clean speech in my memory, the man in front of me is firm, resolute, reserved and gloomy.

He is no longer the dazzling sun in the capital, but a lonely, brave wolf in the northwest.

"Are you back?" Pei Jian said.

"Yeah, I'm back." Gu declined.

The concern and longing for each other over the years were expressed in a simple and plain question and answer.

The two men smiled at each other.

The affection between brothers is restrained and deep.

Gu Ci patted Pei Jian's shoulder vigorously and said with a smile, "How did you know I was here?"

Of course——

Not because I came to see you.

Pei Jian looked behind Gu Ci.

Coincidentally, Nian Xi also turned around and looked over.

Eyes met.

Perhaps it is too corny to describe it as love at first sight, but at this moment, there is only one sentence in his mind: this is his Nianxi, his wife, Nianxi.

He finally saw her again.

It was as if his heart was instantly pierced by an arrow, blood gushed out, and he almost froze in place.

I'm afraid this is just a dream.

A dream that lasts a lifetime.

Pei Jian almost held his breath, not daring to make any sound, for fear of disturbing the person in front of him or awakening himself from his dream.

He looked at Nian Xi almost obsessively.

This look offended Nian Xi.

They have divorced and have no other relationship.

From the conversation just now, Pei Jian seemed to be acquainted with the man, and they had a deep relationship.

Nian Xi didn't know who the man who helped her during the day was, and she wasn't interested. It was getting late, so she turned around and left.

But just as she turned around, her arm was grabbed by a strong force, and the next moment, she fell into a strong embrace.

Pei Jian hugged her tightly from behind, leaving no room for any gaps.

I can't get rid of the thought.

Can't move at all.

She was tied so tightly that it hurt her flesh and bones.

In her ear was his hot, hoarse breathing, which was so clear and heavy against her earlobe:

"Please, don't go, please..."

She felt the wet heat sliding down her neck and into her heart.

Nian Xi stood there in a daze.

Gu Ci, who was standing by, was caught off guard by this sudden change.

It is neither possible to advance nor to retreat.

Shi Zhang is really something.

My wife just lost her husband!
