When Meng Sheng searched about Pei Sui and Gu Ci before, he saw relevant reports about this lady of the Pei family on the web.
Mrs. Pei’s original name was Cui Xueheng, and she came from a family of scholars and researchers in Qingling City.
The year Pei Huan and Pei Sui were kidnapped, she suffered from schizophrenia due to the trauma.
Thinking of this, she suddenly understood why she had that strange feeling just now.
But……
It takes two hours to drive from the west to the south of the city.
This Mrs. Cui was able to come to the art museum to find her, and she came to find her so many times.
Is it reasonable?
That shouldn’t be the case. All her interactions with Pei Sui were because of the case.
Yu Qionghua’s beauty salon case and Shang Boyu’s divorce case.
There is no other overlap.
That time outside the court...
She was a little confused at this moment. When did Pei Sui develop...a different kind of feeling for her?
Thinking back to the time I met Pei Sui until now, it seems that I can’t find any clues.
Why?
She suppressed her doubts, looked up at Cui Xueheng who was still looking at her coldly, and frowned slightly.
Could it be that Pei Sui told her that?
But considering Pei Sui's personality, it should be impossible.
She pursed her lips, her attitude was polite but also distant.
"Mrs. Cui, I don't know where you heard this.
But you misunderstood. The relationship between Lawyer Pei and I is not what you think. ”
Cui Xueheng's tone was somewhat contemptuous and disdainful, "Oh? Misunderstanding? Then tell me, what kind of relationship do you have?"
This tone...
It still makes people feel uncomfortable.
It was as if she was a criminal sitting in the dock, facing questioning and criticism from both the prosecution and the judge.
Meng Sheng didn't want to fall into this self-proving trap.
Once you fall into it, even if you are wronged, you can't explain yourself even if you have a lot of words.
Besides, she doesn't need to prove anything.
She asked calmly, "Since Madam Cui doesn't believe me, why don't you ask Lawyer Pei? Wouldn't it be more direct if you asked him?"
Upon hearing this, Cui Xueheng picked up the cup of tea again and took a sip gracefully.
"It doesn't matter," he said expressionlessly. "I just want your promise to leave my son alone."
I know you are excellent in all aspects, but just because you are married for the second time, you are not worthy of my son, and you are not suitable for our Pei family. Please don't bother Asui. ”
Entanglement?
Very funny.
real.
It's also quite speechless.
Meng Sheng looked at her and pondered for a moment without explaining further.
No matter how much you say, Mrs. Cui won't listen.
She didn't know how Mrs. Cui was so sure that she and Pei Sui were together and would be able to enter her Pei family in the future.
How ridiculous?
Not to mention how much of a shadow her marriage with Shang Boyu had cast on her, just take her relationship with Pei Sui. Actually... it had not reached that point at all.
Since the explanation doesn't make sense, let's solve the problem from the source.
She took out her cell phone and decisively called Pei Sui in front of Cui Xueheng.
She and Pei Sui mostly communicated through WeChat. Except for the beginning when they didn't add each other on WeChat, the number of phone calls they made was very rare afterwards.
The phone rang once and was picked up.
Pei Sui's clear and deep voice came from the microphone, "What's wrong?"
Meng Sheng was stunned when he suddenly heard this familiar voice, and then asked, "Lawyer Pei, are you free now?"
Pei Sui on the other end of the phone heard the alienation in her tone and frowned, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Meng Sheng said, "Your mother, Mrs. Cui, has some misunderstandings about the relationship between you and me. I have explained it to her, but she doesn't believe it, so I can only call you. Please explain it to her in person."
"What?"
Pei Sui was startled, then immediately realized, "You mean, she went to see you?"
"Yes, it's in the art gallery now."
"Wait for me, I'll be there now."
Meng Sheng originally wanted to say that he should just talk to Cui Xueheng on the phone, but before he could open his mouth, Pei Sui hung up the phone.
When she dialed Pei Sui's number, Cui Xueheng's face flashed with the first expression since she entered the office.
Surprised.
But she quickly restrained herself, and a hint of displeasure appeared in her dignified eyes.
After Meng Sheng hung up the phone, she said, "You said that as if I were making things difficult for you. You don't need to use such tricks."
Careful trick?
Meng Sheng smiled.
Yes, Cui Xueheng has been prejudiced against her since she came here.
From her point of view, the behavior just now was understandable. After all, it was really not understandable to Mrs. Cui.
She only believes what she believes.
Meng Sheng was also helpless.
And isn't her so-called guarantee just making things difficult for her?
To guarantee a false charge.
She's not that stupid.
She still did not make any excuses for this matter, but took the initiative to control the topic.
I asked, "Where did Mrs. Cui hear about me and Lawyer Pei?"
Cui Xueheng glared at her, put down the cup, and said in a cold tone, "I thought you would be a smart person, but unfortunately, you are still so stupid.
He actually tried to use my son as a shield. Meng Sheng, you disappoint me. ”
"Mrs. Cui, I respect you as my elder, and my upbringing and manners do not allow me to speak ill of my elders, but this is not a reason for you to insult me again and again."
Meng Sheng looked at her calmly.
She felt that from the moment she entered the office, she had shown the respect and etiquette that a junior should have towards the lady in front of her.
But there was no reason for her to continue to endure her nonsensical abuse and accusations.
"What you just said makes me very uncomfortable. You don't have to belittle me like that. Whether I am excellent or stupid, I don't need others to evaluate me or recognize me.
I am very satisfied with myself, and I will not have self-doubt and make unnecessary changes because of your remarks today. Everything I do is just to be true to myself. ”
She smiled slowly, but it didn't reach her eyes. "I wonder if Mrs. Cui can understand what I'm saying?"
Cui Xueheng looked at her, with an inexplicable strangeness in her eyes.
She gently touched the jade bracelet on her wrist, then stood up with her bag, "Then I hope you can do everything you said today."
After saying that, she walked straight out of the office.
Meng Sheng frowned.
But he still stood up and walked her to the elevator without saying much. He just nodded slightly after she got in.
After Cui Xueheng left, she stood there for about two minutes, not knowing what she was thinking.
I just stared at the elevator door in a daze.
It wasn't until Jonah came over and called her that she pulled her thoughts back into her blank mind.
I returned to the office and talked to Qiao Na for a few minutes, and then Pei Sui arrived.
