"Miss Pei, do you know our Xiaozhou?" Old Lady Qin was puzzled. She looked at Pei Zhiyu and felt that he looked very familiar.
"I--"
Pei Zhiyu had just said one word when Qin Hezhou interrupted her.
"She is my wife."
"So you are Xiaoyu!" The old lady stepped forward and held Pei Zhiyu's hand affectionately. "I haven't had the chance to meet you before. Today is such a coincidence. Why don't you stay for dinner?"
Pei Zhiyu was completely confused.
The old lady didn't give her any chance to refuse and ordered the servant to prepare dinner as soon as she finished speaking.
She glanced at Qin Hezhou and asked in a accusatory tone, "Aren't you going to explain yourself?!"
"What do you need to explain?" Qin Hezhou pretended to be dumb.
Pei Zhiyu rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Why are you at the Qin family?" She deliberately emphasized the word "Qin family" and wanted to hear how he would explain himself.
"I'm here to sell the house." Qin Hezhou said calmly.
"Selling a house? Are you working as a real estate agent?"
"Uh... sort of. Didn't you suggest I change jobs?" Qin Hezhou led her to the table and sat down, then added, "But I'm selling my own house today."
Why did he sound so proud? Pei Zhiyu was skeptical, but didn't ask any further questions.
Old Lady Qin seemed to like Pei Zhiyu very much. She didn't even bother to eat and kept chatting with her. Later on, for some reason, the old lady suddenly wiped away her tears and said, "Alas, it's a pity that Old Lin didn't get to see you get married..."
Pei Zhiyu was a little surprised, "Mrs. Qin, do you know my grandfather?"
"We are old friends." Old Mrs. Qin looked at Pei Zhiyu and said earnestly, "Don't call me old lady. Call me grandma. It's more intimate."
Seeing that they were having a great conversation, the servants didn't dare to interrupt them. Fortunately, Qin Hezhou noticed it.
"What?" he asked.
The servant explained that it was time for the old lady to take medicine and go to bed.
It was already dark outside the window. Pei Zhiyu looked at his watch and saw that it was almost ten o'clock.
Zhong Yue's messages kept popping up on the phone, and she said that if I didn't reply, she would call the police. Pei Zhiyu quickly replied to her to let her know he was safe.
"Grandma, it's getting late, let's go back first." Pei Zhiyu put down his phone and said goodbye to the old lady.
The old lady was obviously reluctant to leave. She said she wanted the driver to take them away, but in fact she winked at the servant. The servant understood, "The driver left early today. Should I call him now and ask him to come back?"
Pei Zhiyu didn't feel comfortable bothering others, so he quickly said, "Don't bother, I can just call an online taxi."
"Why don't you stay here tonight? I'll have the driver take you back tomorrow morning."
Qin Hezhou knew the old lady's little thoughts clearly, but he didn't dare to say a word when the old lady stared at him.
"Okay then." Facing the old man's expectant eyes, Pei Zhiyu really couldn't say no.
Besides, it is not always possible to get a taxi in a place like Xiangshan Villa.
The old lady ordered the servants to clean up the guest room, and said that she still had to discuss the house sale contract with Qin Hezhou, so she asked Pei Zhiyu to go and rest first.
Qin Hezhou followed him into the study and was beaten unexpectedly.
"How long do you plan to keep lying to Xiaoyu?" Old Lady Qin sat upright on the armchair, looking intimidating without even getting angry.
So this was the reason. Qin Hezhou was a little confused because he himself didn't know the answer.
"Aren't you afraid that Xiaoyu will get angry and divorce you?!"
"She and I got married by agreement, and we will get divorced sooner or later." Qin Hezhou smiled bitterly.
The old man was so disappointed with her that he hit her with a stick again, "If you really want to get divorced, you'd better not cry!"
Since her grandson was not smart, she, the old lady, had to "add fuel to the fire". Before leaving, she said, "I have created an opportunity for you, so make good use of it."
Qin Hezhou returned to the guest room and saw Pei Zhiyu leaning against the door in a daze. He asked, "Why don't you go in?"
"Look for yourself." Pei Zhiyu smiled stiffly.
As she looked into the house, Qin Hezhou saw—
What a big bed!
To be exact, this is the only bed in the room.
He instantly understood what the old lady meant by "creating opportunities", and was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He then asked Pei Zhiyu why he didn't change rooms.
Pei Zhiyu certainly wanted to change, but what if someone asked him? How should he answer?
She said helplessly: "We are husband and wife."
"Um?"
Pei Zhiyu sighed and explained, "Shouldn't a couple sleep in the same bed?"
That makes sense.
Qin Hezhou didn't want to cause any trouble.
He strode to the bed with his long legs, handed Pei Zhiyu the pajamas prepared by the servant, and couldn't help but rub her head.
“?” Pei Zhiyu dodged.
"I'll sleep on the floor, you go take a shower." Qin Hezhou stuffed her pajamas into her arms and smiled nonchalantly.
Pei Zhiyu took the clothes and rushed into the bathroom. After locking the door, he leaned against it and breathed a sigh of relief.
I've fallen in love with my arch-enemy more than once.
This is so embarrassing!
She turned on the shower head and the hot water poured down on her body, and all her fatigue and worries disappeared.
Pei Zhiyu hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time, and he couldn't help but scream.
Outside the bathroom, Qin Hezhou was startled by the noise and hurried over to knock on the door to ask.
"Ah, it's okay, I'm fine." Pei Zhiyu wanted to dig a hole in the ground embarrassedly.
She was puzzled by the lack of a response, but couldn't see clearly through the bathroom door. She hesitantly walked to the door and knocked twice. "Qin Hezhou, are you still there?"
Qin Hezhou outside the door lowered his head like a guilty thief, and it took him a long time to utter "hmm".
Pei Zhiyu finally felt relieved. "Oh, I'm fine. Go and do your own thing."
When she finished washing up, Qin Hezhou's bed had already been prepared, but there was only a thin blanket.
Qin Hezhou seemed to see through her heart. As he passed by her, he said, "Don't worry, there's heating."
Yes, this is a mansion.
Pei Zhiyu felt uncomfortable with wet hair stuck to his face. He wanted to find a hair dryer, but accidentally caught a glimpse of the glass door of the bathroom.
Her eyes widened, her breathing quickened, she clutched the corner of the quilt tightly, and her face was full of disbelief.
Through the glass door, Pei Zhiyu could see Qin Hezhou's proud figure clearly——
So, it is actually one-way perspective? ! !
