Chapter 222 Nianxi, I had a dream

Pei Jian naturally noticed the action of Yong'an Hou stroking his beard. He turned his head and asked Nianxi, "Change your taste?"

There is a reason for saying this.

Pei Jian was promoted quickly and was young. He was afraid that his aura would not be enough to overwhelm those old-timers in the officialdom, so he originally planned to grow a beard.

Make yourself look more stable.

But at the budding stage of the idea, it was strongly rejected by Nian Xi.

She listed a bunch of shortcomings and finally got to the point: what she hated most was men with beards.

Since she was so unhappy, there was no reason for Pei Jian to disobey her.

But he also has conditions.

From now on, Nian Xi will shave his beard for him.

Shaving takes place in the clean room, which is convenient for washing. The couple goes back and forth, and there is always a mess in the end.

So later on, Nian Xi stopped caring about him, and Pei Jian also developed the habit of shaving, so his face always looked fresh and clean.

Nian Xi said nothing when she heard this. She glanced at him and got on the carriage.

Pei Jian was very conscious and followed suit and got on the carriage.

The commotion here naturally alarmed everyone in the General's Mansion.

Especially Li, she watched Pei Jian get into her daughter's carriage and became anxious.

Haven't you already divorced?

But considering the people present, I couldn't say much.

It's not good to cause a commotion in public.

They were all considerate of the situation, so they all laughed and covered up the matter, as if no one had seen a man as old as Prime Minister Pei get into Nianxi's carriage.

But everyone's eyes and eyebrows are almost full of words.

Nian Xi also knew that there were many people here.

Pei Jian got into her car so openly. He was not an insignificant person, so wouldn't he become a topic of conversation among others?

She lowered her voice and shouted angrily, "What are you doing up here? Get down!"

Pei Jian also imitated her and whispered, "I'll take you home."

Qin Lang said that men should not care about their reputation. As long as they can sacrifice their reputation, they can accomplish anything.

What's more, he is also angry at the moment.

What is Nianxi doing?

Would you like to meet me?

The General's Office?

This mansion is most famous for its large number of men. The moment Pei Jian heard the news, it was as if he was struck by lightning.

Men get married and women get married, and he never thought that Nianxi would marry someone else.

This is so frightening.

He couldn't wait a moment and had to defend his position.

The closed carriage seemed to be filled with a silent mist, and even the faintest breathing could be heard.

Pei Jian stared at her with dark eyes.

In the moving carriage, the light flickered on his profile, making the mountains and hills appear more undulating and the valleys deeper, and his expression was as unpredictable as the light and shadow.

The gaze was so aggressive, as if it wanted to see through her.

Nian Xi felt annoyed by being stared at.

As the carriage drove to the busy street, she could hear the hawkers calling out from behind a curtain.

The quietness and bustle are just like the tormented heart at this moment.

Just when Nianxi could no longer bear it, Pei Jian suddenly spoke up and said to himself, "Nianxi, I had a dream last night."

Nian Xi was silent.

But he had a way to make her speak.

Just use your eyes.

The depth and intensity in his eyes were inextricable, like a burning dark fire that could engulf everything with just a spark.

He waited for her to speak.

"What dream?" Nian Xi asked.

Pei Jian smiled and said in a deep voice, "It's about you."

As he spoke, the air in the carriage was flowing, without the unbearable undercurrent, so Nianxi followed suit and asked, "What is it?"

Pei Yan smiled again.

His deep and handsome eyes are full of brilliance.

"You'll be unhappy if I tell you."

The carriage was not big, and there were only two of them sitting in it. She looked into those deep and unfathomable eyes, and her heart shuddered.

Instinctively, she stopped asking questions and said without thinking, "Then don't say it."

"Yeah, okay."

He smiled and agreed, but the next moment he had left his position, with one hand around Nian Xi's waist and the other hand on the back of her head, without even stopping for a moment, before Nian Xi's scream could come out, his words had already been blocked in her throat.

Let out a series of sobs.

He had predicted it.

So he clamped her waist and fixed her head, forcing her to endure this sudden, irresistible, devastating kiss.

Pei Jian knelt on one knee on the ground and looked up to kiss her.

She took a step back, he took a step forward.

It's like two armies facing off, fighting for every inch.

He was a cunning veteran, full of patient perseverance and a determination to die, and he finally pushed her into a desperate situation.

Nian Xi opened her mouth to scold him, but he conquered her and kept asking for more.

From violent storms to trickling springs, no matter how Nian Xi slapped his shoulders and arms, pushed and grabbed his cheeks, he still refused to let her go.

He didn't let go until Nianxi could no longer breathe.

Still maintaining the half-kneeling position, he put his hands on her shoulders, back, and waist, pressing himself tightly against her heart.

He said, "I'm afraid you'll get angry if I tell you, Nian Nian, let me act it out for you. What I dreamed about was our past."

Nianxi is already exhausted at this moment.

The scuffle and shove just now, as well as that devastating kiss, made her lean against the wall of the car helplessly, like a fish out of water.

Her body was held in his arms, and he weighed heavily on her heart. Nian Xi was very irritated, conflicted, and wanted to hit someone.

But I don't want to talk.

Words are too pale to describe Pei Jian's shamelessness.

It was quiet all around. No sounds of hawkers or passers-by could be heard, not even the rumble of horses and carriages on the bluestone slabs.

The carriage stopped at some point.

Nian Xi was too lazy to lift the curtain to take a look.

It's so confusing.

Everything was planned by him.

She hated the person who was in control of everything.

He can ignore it if he wants to, and keep it if he wants to.

She doesn't like this situation.

"You bastard!"

Pei Jian remained calm, listening to her intense heartbeat. He closed his eyes and suddenly felt at ease.

It's like finding a part of myself again.

With the satisfaction of regaining what was lost.

"You are selfish, cold-hearted, heartless and ungrateful. You have no shame in covering the sky with one hand!"

"You are right."

Pei Jian held her slender waist tightly, "It's my fault. I pursued fame and fortune wholeheartedly, but I said it was for us, but in fact it was for myself. I was so selfish that I even lost myself. Nianxi, I am sorry for you, but I can't leave you. Leaving you means leaving myself..."

He held her hand and put it against his cheek, his eyes red, "But what can I do? I can't stand that you no longer have me in your eyes, and I can't control the unreasonable possessiveness in my heart. Nianxi, I am yours, please, don't be so cruel to me..."

"Don't leave me."

He had a high nose bridge, long and thick eyelashes, and there were scratches on his face from when she had been pushing him violently just now.

Nian Xi could no longer be ruthless and began to cry silently like a child who had suffered a lot of injustice.
