Chapter 13 The Domineering Ghost Husband Falls in Love with Me
The sun was setting after noon, and the quaint old house looked like a castle in a fairy tale.
Roses are climbing up the white jade pavilion and are blooming beautifully.
Yu Zhi sat in the pavilion, leisurely eating sunflower seeds. The crowd of people in white coats standing in front of her didn't look as relaxed as she did.
Their expressions were solemn, just like the ministers in ancient times who spoke frankly and risked their lives for their advice.
"Madam, our husband has given us an ultimatum. He said we must give you a full body check-up. I hope you will cooperate."
At this moment, Yu Zhi was like a demon concubine who could not understand the suffering of all living beings. She was unwilling to even give them a perfunctory glance.
"I'll give you two choices. First, knock me out and force me to undergo a physical examination. Second, let Pei Yuezhou come to me and talk to me himself."
I was wondering how to meet people.
"This..." The doctors looked at each other, as if money was hard to earn and shit was hard to eat.
I thought the hostess looked gentle and easy to talk to, but I ended up hitting a hard wall. It turns out that two kinds of people cannot sleep in the same bed.
They have been pestering him since morning until now, trying everything from begging to pleading, but it's all in vain.
I could only sigh bitterly and walk away.
After a while, Xiaoshui came online: [They have already called to inform Pei Yuezhou.]
"Okay, let's go back to the room and catch up on some sleep." Yu Zhi got up from the recliner and stretched her body. She had a tough battle to fight in the evening.
As the night deepens, everything becomes peaceful.
The top-class convoy drove through the night, crushing the cold air in the air, and finally slowly entered the wealthy area, came to a private area, and stopped at the old house one after another.
Pei Yuezhou, wearing a black windbreaker and with his hair parted, got out of the car surrounded by mercenaries.
"Wait for me right here."
The subordinates understood and knew it was the same as usual.
They consciously stood in two rows and guarded the door.
Pei Yuezhou walked into the hall and slowly took off the black gloves on his hands.
His footsteps were so light that no echo could be heard even on the empty spiral staircase.
Finally, he stopped in front of the master bedroom. When his hand touched the door handle, his fingertips curled up unconsciously, as if he was hesitant.
But his hesitation didn't last long, and he opened the door and walked in.
"Good evening, Mr. Pei." Yu Zhi leaned against the door, looking at the man with smiling eyes.
Pei Yuezhou was not too surprised. His jaw was clenched. He closed the door and looked back.
"Wait for me?"
"What else can I do? I even suspect this is a ghost marriage." Yu Zhi crossed her arms, her eyes teasing: "A domineering ghost husband fell in love with me?"
Pei Yuezhou's thin lips were pressed into a line, his dark eyes were calm, as if he was speechless.
The light was dim, and hearing was particularly sensitive. Yu Zhi accurately caught a hint of helplessness in the man's sigh.
He asked: "Why don't you cooperate with the physical examination?"
"No reason, I just have a common fever, there's no need."
From head to toe, people are exhausted.
Besides, if Yu Zhi had been obedient, would what happened tonight have happened?
Pei Yuezhou's expression suddenly became serious, his brows furrowed, and his eyes looked at her with a deeper look: "You were sick this time and lay in bed for three days. Your condition is basically the same as last time."
Besides, the doctor repeatedly diagnosed it as just a mild fever. Logically, it shouldn't have such a long-lasting effect.
It can only be said that the fever is a coincidence.
Yu Zhi was somewhat surprised at the man's keen insight. It was indeed the illness that concealed her physical overdraft, so she took the opportunity to catch up on sleep without restraint.
But in the end, the clues were discovered.
But Yu Zhi couldn't admit it: "How could that be? You're just too concerned."
Pei Yuezhou wouldn't let her fool around. He held her face with one hand, leaned over and stared at her straight in the eyes: "Yu Zhi, I can cooperate with you in pretending to be deaf and dumb. But in some aspects, I won't give in."
His words were low and powerful, and the oppressive feeling unique to those in a superior position spread silently, changing the atmosphere between the two of them.
Finally, Yu Zhi gave in and replied helplessly: "Okay, I'll do it, tomorrow. But don't worry, I really have no problem at all."
The man finally let go: "I booked it for 7 o'clock tomorrow morning."
Yu Zhi: “…”
Xiaoshui reminded him at the right time: [Host! Don't let him lead you by the nose.]
Only then did Yu Zhi remember that she still had important things to do.
"Okay, now that your concern has been resolved, shouldn't we talk about other things?"
Pei Yuezhou's eyes dimmed slightly, and he changed his tough attitude. He subconsciously took a step back, but found that there was no way out, and his back hit the door.
The resistance emanating from head to toe was so obvious that it made Yu Zhi feel distressed.
"I don't have anything to talk about..." His voice became inexplicably hoarse.
Even he himself felt disgusted by his humiliating past, so what right did he have to ask Yu Zhi not to feel disgusted.
But if he really heard it with his own ears, he was afraid that he would lose control and all his hard work would be destroyed.
Yu Zhi faced him directly: "Then how long do you plan to hide?"
The man's veins bulged as he clenched his fists. His handsome face was shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to see his expression, which naturally concealed the subtlety that was surging within him.
In the darkness, his breathing became heavier.
"Zhizhi," he spoke, but what he said was beyond Yu Zhi's expectations.
"Please."
Pei Yuezhou seemed to be trying hard to suppress something. His nails dug into his palms, oozing bright red blood, but he seemed not to feel the pain.
Yu Zhi was stunned: "What?"
Pei Yuezhou's tall body moved and he knelt on one knee in front of Yu Zhi. He held Yu Zhi's hand and gently placed the back of her hand against his forehead with an extremely humble attitude.
"Pretend you know nothing and stay by my side. Okay?"
He would take care of everything and act the way she wanted.
Yu Zhi felt a sore throat, and she was so depressed that she could hardly make a sound: "Ayue, don't be like this..."
She wanted to pull Pei Yuezhou up.
But Pei Yuezhou was determined to hear her answer. He looked up at her, his slightly red eyes full of pleading and mist, making him look extremely fragile.
It's like a trapped beast with nowhere to go, wagging its tail and begging for mercy from the only person who can save it.
From this scene, it seems that all decision-making power and control are in the hands of women, but who can say for sure who is the real operator?
"Okay, I promise."
A faint smile and tears flowed from her beautiful eyes. Pei Yuezhou knelt down and hugged Yu Zhi, gently rubbing his cheek against hers, calling her: "Zhizhi..."
Yu Zhi touched his head distressedly and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, Yue, I won't leave you."
"good."
Their Zhizhi is still as soft-hearted as ever.
From an angle that Yu Zhi couldn't see, the sadness in the eyes of the man who had been humble to the core just now completely faded away, and only the insidious selfishness hidden under the triumphant smile was quietly revealed.
Then please have more pity on him.
Just like that, focus all your attention on him.
And that kind of skin-on-skin intimacy, that tingling touch...
