Chapter 218 Pei Jian was beaten

Pei Jian was hit hard by the palm.

Nian Xi's strength was not great, but the person she hit felt deep pain in his heart.

He looked at Nian Xi from a close distance, seeing the anger, resentment and even hatred bursting out of those eyes. Those eyes were filled with him, and Pei Yan's heart suddenly calmed down.

It's her.

That's what he thought.

Deep down in his heart, in a secret corner, he even felt a feeling that was almost joyful.

This feeling is so weird and incomprehensible.

Who is he?

Prime Minister Pei, who was admired by everyone, was beaten by a woman who wanted to divorce him, and he was even complacent about it.

This is so embarrassing and unbelievable.

But now is not the time to explore these things, he came here for more important things.

Pei Jian was silent for a moment, his throat slightly rough. The words asking her not to leave just now seemed to be spoken by someone else through his mouth. He turned into the stiff and dry Pei Xiang again.

He said, "Come back with me."

When people are extremely angry, they will really laugh. For example, Nianxi at this moment actually thought she heard a joke.

go back?

Where to go back?

Go back to the house where he, my cousin and the children are?

She didn't want to say another word to him, so she turned around and left, but was grabbed by Pei Jian again.

Nian Xi sneered and pulled out the collar, "Prime Minister Pei, you are pulling and tugging like this, isn't it embarrassing?"

"I don't agree to the divorce," Pei Jian pursed his lips, his face serious and cold, "The divorce letter has been torn up."

Nian Xi was almost furious.

She couldn't control the bitterness in her heart. Although she kept saying that she had let it go, the resentment and sharp emotions suppressed in her heart were repeatedly provoked by Pei Jian, making it almost difficult for her to control herself. "So?"

"Pei Jian, so what? Should I just die of old age in that house, guarding the title of Madam Pei alone, and fulfilling your reputation as a saintly prime minister? This world does not revolve around you, and neither do I."

"I can keep you in my heart, but I can also kick you out. Pei Jian, I've made it very clear, I don't love you and I don't want you anymore."

Pei Yan's expression changed slightly, as if she had returned to that stormy evening when she told him coldly that she wanted a divorce.

Why?

What did he do wrong?

Everything he did was always for their family.

It was hard to describe how he felt at the moment, empty and helpless.

He promised to treat her well for the rest of his life, so why did they break up?

For a moment, he was like a wandering ghost, floating around without a home.

Pei Jian was stimulated by her words and wanted to grab her like he did just now to take the initiative. However, Nian Xi would not let him succeed a second time. When he reached out his hand, she nimbly dodged and said, "Don't touch me again."

Pei Jian has always been proud, but he was hurt by Nian Xi's disgusted look.

He stood there in a daze, watching her leave.

Yet, I was still somewhat worried as it was getting late and I still had some distance to walk to the villa.

He strode after him.

I followed silently from a distance that was neither too far nor too close until I saw the villa gate and the long line of cars at the entrance.

Before coming, Pei Jian had already thought that Nian Xi would not go back with him. So when he left, he ordered her to pack up all her usual things and bring them to the other courtyard.

However, the truth was that he and the convoy were locked out by Nian Xi.

She doesn't want him, and his things.

The people outside the door were silent. The Madam was so disrespectful to them that the Prime Minister's face was as dark as ink. Who knows if innocent people would be affected.

However, Pei Jian remained silent for a moment and asked Manager Li to take the convoy back.

Of course he could knock on the door and walk in openly, but doing so would only intensify her hatred and would not have any effect.

Since waking up that night, he actually became a little afraid of her.

Afraid she would be unhappy.

Afraid that she would hate herself.

This feeling confused him at first, but now he has become accustomed to it.

That's how people are.

He used to take Nianxi's love for granted, but it was not until he lost her that he realized the fear and worry.

Pei Jian ordered Gu San, "Check what's wrong with me these days."

Gu San's expression froze, "Someone is trying to harm you, sir?"

Pei Jian paused. How should he explain what he said "wrong"? It was not directed at the outside world, but at himself.

As soon as he woke up, he noticed something was wrong.

But even he couldn't explain it clearly. He just felt like his emotions were being manipulated by someone and he had no control over it.

Especially when facing Nianxi...

"Go check it out." He said briefly.

After taking another deep look at the closed door, Pei Jian turned around.

He finally remembered that Gu Ci was still waiting.

…

The worst thing for people to do is to think too much.

Nian Xi forced herself not to think about Pei Jian's actions tonight. She took out a storybook and flipped through it casually while lying on the couch.

I was just killing time, but the more I watched, the angrier I got.

I don’t know what the writer of the story was thinking. Why did he describe the young lady in the book as so miserable and her husband as so hideous?

The more Nian Xi read, the more her heart ached.

At first he was half-lying down and looking casually, then he sat up and looked carefully, and then he and Xingyue looked at it while feeling angry.

The woman in the storybook wanted to divorce her husband from the very first chapter, but after reading most of the book, she still hadn't succeeded!

This is too slow.

I can't stand it, I really can't stand it.

Nianxi ordered Lanzhi to grind it, she wanted to write it herself!

Lanzhi had a blind admiration for her wife. Upon hearing this, she immediately jumped up and went to the west room to light the lamp. Xingyue couldn't stop her.

Nianxi wanted to write a storybook, so she naturally thought that Nianxi would be able to write a heart-wrenching masterpiece. It was definitely not a bloody story that would make people angry and itchy, but they couldn't help but continue reading!

Coincidentally, Nianxi also has such a lofty self-awareness.

Her love, hate, and emotions must be unrestrained and satisfying!

However, after she wrote the first paragraph about the divorce in a majestic manner, her writing froze and she could not come up with any satisfying plot for a long time.

What to write?

The woman in the book was still full of life and resisted with all her heart when facing various persecutions, but she herself was depressed and narrow-minded, locking herself up, and she had no story to write.

Life is not a storybook, there are not so many ups and downs.

The same is true after leaving.

Eat, sleep and live your life as usual.

The years pass silently. In the trivial daily life and the mundane fireworks, life itself is actually meaningful enough.

It's just that she was too stubborn and got stuck in a rut.

While she loved others, she forgot to love herself.

"It's late, madam, why don't you write it tomorrow?" Xingyue walked up the stairs with great tact.

Think of doing good and follow it.

He put down the brush and without even looking at the two maids, he leisurely returned to the inner room from the west chamber.

But deep down I was concerned about how the second half of the story would develop, so with an exploratory mindset I kept the lights on and read until the middle of the night, only then did I fall asleep with sore eyes.

Maybe I was too absorbed in the book, and my dream was filled with plots from the book.

However, she turned into the young lady herself, and the hideous husband turned into Pei Jian's appearance.

Pei Jian held cousin Xu's hand and acted affectionately in front of her.

Cousin Xu said to her sweetly, "Sister, Lin'er is the child of my cousin and me. I'm pregnant again now. From now on, you will live a disabled life in the woodshed..."

The dream was so terrifying and realistic that Nian Xi was startled and woke up from her sleep without catching her breath.

Then, she saw Pei Yan's enlarged face.

When a person just wakes up, his rationality has not yet completely returned.

Nian Xi didn't even have time to wonder why Pei Jian appeared in her bedroom, but slapped him in the face:

"You scumbag! That child is indeed yours and Xu Wanxin's!"
