Chapter 176 Boring
Pei Xuan, however, looked nonchalant, as if he was used to his sister's yelling. Compared to Pei Ruxin's anger, he seemed calmer.
Before he took his hand away from his sister, he lowered his eyes to glance at the person in his arms and said, "She has caught a cold and is feeling a little unwell. I asked Miss Yang to bring me some medicine. I'm not married yet, so isn't it inappropriate for you to call me your second sister-in-law?"
Yang Jiyu stood aside holding a medicine box. He did not look embarrassed at all. He was as calm as Pei Xuan and did not even glance at the two of them. In this scene, it seemed that Pei Ruxin was the one who was making a fuss.
Thinking of this, Pei Ruxin felt furious, but seemed to be afraid of saying something indecent because Yang Jiyu was still present, so he walked closer and whispered, "Second brother, aren't you humiliating me?"
Pei Xuan had no intention of lowering his voice, and even deliberately raised it, "How does this count as humiliating her?" He then said "oh", deliberately prolonging the ending sound, and his eyes fell on Yang Jiyu, and he said with an ambiguous look, "Why? Compared to the girls in Nongxiangtang, do you feel inferior to them?"
"Tsk—" Pei Ruxin glared at Pei Xuan, asking him to speak properly.
Pei Xuan smiled, leaned back in his chair, and said, "My wedding date hasn't arrived yet, what can she do to me? Break off the engagement? Just wait and see how her brother will stay in the cabinet in the future."
His eyes fell on Yang Jiyu, as if he wanted to see some anger from her.
When Yang Jiyu heard his brother's name, he suddenly clenched his hands, and his knuckles turned white as he gripped the medicine box.
His words left Pei Ruxin speechless, but she knew that the situation would only become more tense if this continued, so she grabbed Yang Jiyu's wrist and was about to leave, but found that he couldn't stop her.
Pei Ruxin thought Yang Jiyu was angry, but she just smiled and said, "Please don't say that, Second Young Master. My brother got into the cabinet on his own. You're making it sound like he got his foothold in the cabinet thanks to my marriage."
She pointed to a few prescriptions on the table and said, "One dose a day, and the effect will be seen in seven days."
As soon as she finished speaking, she left. Pei Xuan in the room seemed to have not expected her to resist. Before he could utter a word of rebuttal, Yang Jiyu had already left. Seeing this, Pei Ruxin rolled her eyes at Pei Xuan and said, "This is obviously a great marriage, why are you doing this, second brother?"
After saying that, he followed Yang Jiyu and left.
Pei Xuan and Hu Yi were left in the room.
Hu Yi knew this was Pei Xuan's family affair, and he also knew his sister's temper, so he didn't dare to say a word, not even breathe. Now that the man had left, he breathed a sigh of relief. He pushed Pei Xuan and asked, "Didn't you go too far? Girls are shy. You haven't even gotten married yet, and you've put on this drama. Aren't you afraid that it will cause trouble for your marriage?"
Pei Xuan was originally lost in thought because of Yang Jiyu's unexpected words. Hu Yi's collision brought him back to his senses. He sneered, "What's going on? How could a country girl like her have the ability to cause trouble in the Pei Mansion?"
He glanced at the direction Yang Jiyu had left, and just then the man in his arms brought him a sip of wine and gently urged him, "Sir, don't be angry, have a drink."
Pei Xuan raised his head and took the wine brought by his sister, who tactfully fed him a sip.
The eyes are moving, and the atmosphere is full of ambiguity.
Pei Xuan looked at the person in his arms, and remembered Yang Jiyu's silent look just now. Even his counterattack was powerless.
Very boring.
