Chapter 133 You like me a little bit, don’t you?
The red-haired woman subconsciously looked at Pei Jingyan, but Pei Jingyan didn't even look at her, his eyes fixed on Shen Lai.
Especially after hearing the word "husband", his eyes couldn't help but darken a little.
Seeing that the red-haired woman had no intention of moving, Shen Lai said rudely: "Don't you understand what I'm saying? Or do you need me to ask someone to take you away?"
Seeing that Pei Jingyan had no intention of helping, the red-haired woman let go of Pei Jingyan's hand with a look of grievance and sat down in another seat.
Chen Lai then looked at Pei Jingyan, who was also looking at him, his eyes filled with ambiguous emotions.
He spoke in a low and hoarse voice, "Shen Lai, what do you mean?"
Shen Lai remained calm and said indifferently, "What do you think?"
"I don't know." Pei Jingyan's eyes were dark, with a paranoid light flashing inside. "I don't have a good understanding, so please explain it clearly, Miss Shen."
Chen Lai thought unhappily, Pei Jingyan actually knew how to play dumb at this time, wasn't he very smart when he was plotting against her?
Shen Lai did not answer. She looked up at the people around her and said unhappily, "If anyone lets me know who ordered a lady for Pei Jingyan in the future, don't blame me for being rude."
Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.
After all, Pei Jingyan didn't say anything, but looked at Chen Lai with interest.
Chen Lai didn't say any more words, grabbed Pei Jingyan's hand and walked out.
Pei Jingyan was extremely cooperative and let Shen Lai pull him away.
As soon as the box door was closed again, the uncontrollable discussions immediately broke out.
"No, who is this woman? Why does she speak so arrogantly?"
"You just got internet at home. That's Mr. Pei's wife!"
"Wife? That bankrupt daughter? Isn't she just a gold digger? How dare she talk to President Pei like that?"
"Shut up! Did you see President Pei get angry? He's not upset at all, so why should we stand up for him? Be careful what you say."
The man seemed to realize something. "So Brother Pei has been unhappy these past few days because of my sister-in-law? I said he never came to such occasions before, but he's been acting so abnormal these past few days, coming out to drink every day."
"Don't tell me, a few days ago I asked Brother Pei if he had a quarrel with his sister-in-law, and when Brother Pei heard it his face turned black. So it turned out to be true."
"Tsk tsk tsk, President Pei and his wife have a really good relationship. I heard that President Pei almost lost an arm to save Shen Lai some time ago."
Coming out of the bar, everything was quiet.
Seeing that there was no one around, Shen Lai shook off Pei Jingyan's hand and walked forward on his own.
Pei Jingyan stared at Chen Lai's back and said slowly: "Chen Lai, shouldn't you explain what's going on?"
Shen Lai stopped immediately and said nothing.
Just then, the phone in Pei Jingyan's pocket rang. It was a message from his assistant.
The assistant said that he was secretly photographed by paparazzi in the bar tonight, and it caused a lot of uproar on Weibo. The company is already dealing with the matter as quickly as possible.
Pei Jingyan's eyebrows twitched slightly.
Looking at Shen Lai in front of him, he finally understood why Shen Lai suddenly came here today.
Pei Jingyan put away his phone and suddenly said, "Chen Lai, are you jealous?"
Chen Lai refused to admit it and said with his neck stiff, "Who's jealous?"
Pei Jingyan's eyes were filled with laughter as he waved his phone. "If you weren't jealous, why did you rush over right after seeing the paparazzi's photos?"
Shen Lai's eyes flickered, "I just didn't want you to implicate me."
As if to prevent Pei Jingyan from misunderstanding, she explained, "Besides, we are still nominally married now. If you're messing around outside, can't I come forward to intervene?"
Pei Jingyan's smile deepened. "Even if something happens, it's my reputation that's at stake. What does it have to do with you?"
Shen Lai snorted coldly, "We are husband and wife. We prosper together and suffer together. Haven't you heard?"
Pei Jingyan looked at Shen Lai's pretending indifferent profile. He suddenly sighed and reached out to hold her in his arms.
Shen Lai was stunned for a moment, then began to struggle, "Who told you to touch me, let go..."
Before he could finish his words, Pei Jingyan's voice rang out from above his head, "Are you not angry with me anymore?"
Shen Lai paused, and her struggling movements slowly stopped. She turned her head to the side and said unhappily: "Who said I'm not angry? I haven't said I forgive you yet."
"I didn't mean to lie to you." Pei Jingyan was silent for a moment, "I just don't know how to tell you."
"I'm afraid that after I tell you, you'll take the child and leave me."
Shen Lai lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelashes casting shadows under his eyes, and stared at the floor under his feet in a daze.
In fact, she understood Pei Jingyan's feelings. She was the same. She had a crush on Pei Jingyan but was afraid that he would find out, so she could only pretend that nothing had happened.
Shen Lai said stubbornly: "Even so, you still lied to me."
Pei Jingyan let go of Shen Lai and looked deeply into her eyes. "What do I need you to do to forgive me?"
"Should I kneel down and admit my mistake, or should I slap me a few times to vent my anger?"
Without waiting for Shen Lai to say anything, Pei Jingyan grabbed Shen Lai's hand and swung it towards his face.
Shen Lai was startled and quickly withdrew his hand, "What are you doing?"
Pei Jingyan raised the corner of his lips, "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
Shen Lai swallowed his saliva and said, "Don't try these self-torture tricks. Don't think about letting this matter go easily."
Pei Jingyan said seriously: "I don't intend to turn the page. I lied to you, so you should blame me."
Shen Lai pursed his lips.
To be honest, she wasn't that angry, she just couldn't accept it for a while.
Besides, so many days have passed. Even if he was really angry, he would have calmed down long ago.
"Don't change the subject." Shen Lai glared at him, "What's going on between you and that woman in the box? What, you think I'm tired of you and want to change your wife, right?"
Pei Jingyan could smell the jealousy in her words from a distance. He hooked his little finger with Shen Lai's and explained, "She came up to me on her own initiative. It has nothing to do with me."
Shen Lai sneered, "She came close to you, so you just took advantage of the situation and hugged her left and right."
Pei Jingyan immediately raised his hands and said, "I was just about to push her away when you came in. You can't blame me for this."
Shen Lai stared at Pei Jingyan's face, as if to see whether he was telling the truth or a lie.
The next second, Pei Jingyan reached out and put his arm around Shen Lai's waist without any warning, instantly closing the distance between them. He stared into Shen Lai's eyes, his voice magnetic and hoarse, "So, Shen Lai, you won't divorce me, right?"
Shen Lai bit her lip and said, "Look at your performance. If you dare to lie to me again, I will divorce you immediately."
Pei Jingyan raised three fingers, his eyes serious, "I promise you, I will never do that."
Chen Lai looked at Pei Jingyan's face and thought of the photos in the attic. She didn't know how much perseverance Pei Jingyan had put in to love her for so many years. Even she couldn't guarantee that she could do this.
If Pei Jingyan was really the kind of person who would easily fall in love with another woman, he wouldn't have to wait until now to find another woman.
Shen Lai's solemn expression softened a bit, and he said stiffly, "It's better this way."
Seeing that Chen Lai didn't seem to be still angry, Pei Jingyan approached and suddenly said, "So, you like me a little bit, right?"
