Song Ling's tense body relaxed slightly. "Notify the security guard at the door and don't let this person in from now on!"
Xu Su frowned, "Brother, this isn't good, is it? What's the reason for stopping someone?"
"Various reasons." Song Ling answered domineeringly.
Xu Su deliberately mocked: "Why do I smell the scent of Shanxi aged vinegar? Brother, do you smell it?"
Song Ling glanced over and asked, "Can you handle it?"
"Of course!" Could it be that Xu Su couldn't handle such a small matter?
But it’s too unusual for my brother to return to China.
Ten days later.
Pei Xiaoxiao was discharged from the hospital.
The first thing she did after being discharged from the hospital was to call Liu Zhiyuan.
Liu Zhiyuan got a headache when she saw her number, and kept calling after she hung up.
After repeating this several times, she directly blacklisted Pei Xiaoxiao's number.
After finishing her work in the evening, she left the company.
But he saw Duan Zichen's car parked in front of the company.
When Pei Xiaoxiao saw Liu Zhiyuan coming out, she got out of the car and walked towards her immediately.
Pei Xiaoxiao's face was filled with a happy smile, and one hand was stroking her flat belly.
"Xiao Yuan, we can't get through to you on the phone. We're here to look for you at the entrance of your company."
Duan Zichen in the car also got out and walked over.
Pei Xiaoxiao smiled at him, took his arm, and asked in a gentle voice, "Xiao Yuan is still angry with us. What do you say we should do? I can't get through on the phone either. She must have blocked my number."
Liu Zhiyuan suppressed the suffocating feeling in her heart and looked at them coldly.
The two people look very affectionate in the sunshine.
Pei Xiaoxiao smiled calmly. Although Duan Zichen had no expression on his face, his big hand gently held her small hand that was holding his arm. This was an obvious protective gesture.
"Xiao Yuan..."
"What's up?"
Liu Zhiyuan interrupted Pei Xiaoxiao, feeling that her gentle and lovely appearance was very hypocritical, and the hypocrisy made her feel sick.
Pei Xiaoxiao looked at Duan Zichen tenderly and said, "Because of what happened between Zichen and me, the three of us are not very happy. Today, Zichen and I specially invited you to dinner to express our apologies. We hope you can forgive us. We also hope that the relationship between the three elders of our family will not be affected by this."
Liu Zhiyuan refused without hesitation, "I don't have time."
Pei Xiaoxiao stepped forward and gently pulled her arm, but she dodged.
"Xiao Yuan, you're married now, and you still won't forgive us?" I really care about our sisterhood, and I don't want our relationship to become so stiff because of Zichen. Let's go out for dinner together. My father specially booked a private room, and Uncle Liu, Uncle Duan, and Auntie are waiting for us.
Liu Zhiyuan frowned. Was this forcing her to go?
Just then, someone called.
The person who called this time was her mother, Lin Jinrong. She had not contacted her mother since the mall incident.
After hesitating for a moment, she still didn't answer.
After a while, my father called.
This time she answered the phone quickly, but the voice of Lin Jinrong came from the phone, which seemed a little gentle.
"Have Xiaoxiao and Zichen picked you up?" The three elders are waiting for you. You are the most sensible one, and your father hopes you will come soon.
Liu Zhiyuan frowned helplessly, and Pei Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to grab her arm and pull her into the car.
Along the way, Liu Zhiyuan felt very uneasy.
Pei Xiaoxiao sat with her in the back row and kept chatting with her.
She remained silent.
The three old men were all in the hotel box.
Liu Zhiyuan greeted politely, "Hello Uncle Pei, Hello Uncle Duan, Hello Aunt Zheng."
Pei Songlu nodded faintly.
Duan Chengzhao also nodded faintly.
Lin Jinrong reached out and pulled Liu Zhiyuan to her seat, looking at Pei Xiaoxiao with a smile, "Xiaoxiao, are you tired? Come and sit down and eat.
"Apart from Liu Qing and Liu Zhiyuan who looked unwell, everyone else at the table looked very happy.
The food came up quickly, and Pei Xiaoxiao picked up some dishes for Liu Zhiyuan with a happy look on her face.
"Xiao Yuan, you should eat more. You've lost weight since you got married."
Yuan Zhenzhen asked curiously, "Is Xiaoyuan married? Why so suddenly? There wasn't even a wedding?"
When Lin Jinrong was asked about this, she was very embarrassed.
She glanced at Liu Zhiyuan secretly and quickly explained, "This child is disobedient and is in a hurry to get married. She didn't even have a wedding."
Li Shuzhen was very curious, "Who is the young master on the other side?"
Lin Jinrong's face turned even worse.
Pei Xiaoxiao quickly tried to smooth things over, "Auntie, Liu Zhiyuan's husband is an intern at Suning Hospital. Although he's only an intern, he'll be hired sooner or later. Being a doctor is a noble profession, isn't it, Zichen?"
Duan Zichen lowered his head to eat, but no expression could be seen on his face, only a faint response.
Li Shuzhen's eyes flashed with disdain, and she said lightly, "She's an intern. But it doesn't matter, as long as Xiaoyuan likes her. It's a bit regrettable what happened before, after all, Xiaoyuan has always been with Zichen. Now that they have both found their own homes, it's also a happy thing."
Although she didn't object to Zichen and Xiaoyuan being together before, now that Zichen has a better choice, she certainly supports him.
Pei Xiaoxiao said softly, "Having said that, I still care about my friendship with Xiaoyuan. I hope Xiaoyuan can forget the unpleasantness of the past and we can become good sisters again. Regarding this meal, the first thing is to express our deepest apologies to Xiaoyuan, and the second is..."
She glanced at everyone shyly and said, "Secondly, because I'm pregnant, Zichen decided to give me an engagement ceremony first. I hope Xiaoyuan can come to our engagement ceremony..."
Liu Zhiyuan subconsciously refused, "I don't have time."
The smile on Pei Xiaoxiao's face was awkward, and her eyes were slightly drooped.
Li Shuzhen saw that Xiaoxiao was wronged and quickly said,
"Xiao Yuan, how can you be so cold? Xiao Xiao is actually a kind child. She called you as soon as she was discharged from the hospital and sincerely invited you. Don't be petty. I hope you and Xiao Xiao can still be good sisters in the future. Speaking of which, you are already married, and Zi Chen is engaged. Or did you cheat on this relationship before Zi Chen?"
Liu Zhiyuan's face was slightly pale, and she clenched the spoon tightly.
Liu Qing felt sorry for her daughter and frowned.
"How do you speak?"
Li Shuzhen was slightly embarrassed, then said arrogantly, "Uncle Liu, I didn't say anything excessive, why are you so irritable?"
Although the relationship between the three major families had always been good, the Liu family was the weakest, so her Pei family had always been arrogant.
Lin Jinrong quickly came to the rescue, "Old Liu is actually angry with our daughter. We all blame Xiao Yuan for not being with Zi Chen as expected."
Pei Songlu, who had never spoken before, glanced at Liu Qing like an old fox.
"It's not worth hurting three families for such a small matter. I hope this incident won't affect the relationship between our three families. After all, our cooperation is intertwined."
This is both persuasion and warning.
