After driving for about half an hour, the taxi driver stopped the car and turned to Xu Jiayue and the others, saying, "Unfamiliar vehicles are strictly prohibited from entering this villa area. Unless it is certified by the homeowner, I can only park here."
Xu Jiayue frowned, looked at the magnificent gate of the villa area, then paid the driver, opened the door and got out of the car.
Ni Sitian also got out of the car, and the driver drove away.
It's the height of summer now, when the sun is at its strongest.
After seeing Xu Jiayue exchange a few words with the guard at the door, Ni Sitian turned back to her and said, "Let's go to that coffee shop over there."
After the two sat down, Xu Jiayue called Pei Yang again, but this time she was even more decisive and turned off her phone.
Seeing that her face was getting more and more tense, Ni Sitian said, "Pei Yang finally managed to marry you. That day outside the operating room, I saw him look so terrible for the first time. He lost all his composure and rushed in. It's impossible..."
"If you think it's impossible, why add 'should'?" Xu Jiayue put down her phone and looked up at Ni Sitian.
Ni Sitian was slightly taken aback; what she said was indeed a bit off.
Xu Jiayue lowered her eyes, held the cup in her hand, and remained silent for a while before saying, "I believe him."
"Huh?" Ni Sitian thought she came after him because she didn't trust him. If she did trust him, why did she come after him?
“I just recently realized that I don’t know him at all,” Xu Jiayue said in a low voice, her lips pressed tightly together. “I don’t know what he’s like besides loving me. I’ve known him since kindergarten, but now I find that the person I thought he was and the real person seem to be different.”
Ni Sitian reached out and took Xu Jiayue's hand, saying, "What does it matter? As long as you know that he truly loves you, isn't that enough? Your brother also said he didn't understand the real Pei Yang, but that didn't stop them from becoming trusted friends."
“It’s different. Friendship is a different matter,” Xu Jiayue shook her head and looked at Ni Sitian, saying, “I’m going to be sleeping next to him every day from now on. Can you imagine the person you’re sleeping next to, and suddenly you wake up one day and you’re not familiar with their behavior at all?”
Ni Sitian remained silent. Although Xu Tingchuan was also somewhat cunning, he held nothing back in front of her.
“He kept all those things from me. If it weren’t for his father’s phone call, I would have had no idea he would have done such a thing to Pei Yan. If the Pei family hadn’t paid out money to cover it up, Pei Yan might have been sentenced to death. Now, he’s at least a life sentence.” Xu Jiayue wasn’t sympathizing with Pei Yan. Pei Yan had indeed committed a crime and should be punished.
Having come this far, the Pei family members probably wouldn't dare to provoke him anymore. This tactic of making an example of someone is quite effective at this stage, but she was actually somewhat afraid of Pei Yang's coldness.
She couldn't help but let her imagination run wild. If one day she did something wrong, would he also be so patient and restrained, waiting for an opportunity to strike?
“Their family is more complicated; you can’t just look at it as a simple matter of blood ties.” Ni Sitian understood what Jia Yue was trying to say, patted her hand, and said, “But he treats you differently. If you feel you don’t understand him, then go and try to understand him. You can ask him, you can tell him everything you’re thinking, and he’ll be willing to let you understand.”
Xu Jiayue clasped her hands together, one hand caressing the diamond ring on her ring finger, as if the ring could give her a sense of security and confidence.
