Dating After Divorce - Chapter 76

Cancel the concert?

Pei Li frowned, his expression full of worry.

“What happened to you?”

Pei Yi’s cheeks were pale, and the black hair that fell down on the side of her face made her look more and more gloomy.

She shook her head, the corners of her mouth moved, forcing herself to smile.

“nothing.”

“Just now, it’s just a joke, don’t take it to heart.”

She wants to tell her family that she can no longer play the piano like she used to.

But she can’t say.

Once she said it, Zhou Ruguang would definitely ask people to investigate where she went and who she met these days.

After all, no one gets sick for no reason.

What’s more, everyone in the family knew that she regarded the piano as more important than her own life.

Pei Li still felt something was wrong.

“Are you too nervous?”

“Since you were a child, Dad had the highest expectations for you. This is your first performance after returning to China, and pressure is inevitable.”

“After dinner tonight, you and Dad may have a chat, maybe it will be better.”

When Pei Yi heard the last sentence, her eyelids drooped slightly, her hands were on her knees, and she trembled uncontrollably.

Her mother and her brother depended on Zhou Ruguang so much, regarded him as the best husband and father in the world, and trusted him unconditionally, but he deceived everyone.

Just thinking about it made her throat gasp.

She didn’t answer and didn’t know how to answer.

Seeing that she didn’t speak, Pei Li reached out and patted her shoulder, bringing another message.

“By the way, my aunt will come over later.”

“If you don’t want to talk to Dad, talk to Auntie.”

“Auntie always loves you.”

Zhou Ruhong——

Pei Yi was stunned for a while, thinking of the bank card that Ning Rou gave her this time, her face turned pale again.

Zhou Ruhong really doted on her very much. In order to bring her and Luo Zhen together, she could even use money to force Ning Rou to leave.

Can’t tell what it feels like.

The more she realized how much favor she had received from Zhou Ruguang and Zhou Ruhong over the years, the more she felt ashamed of Ning Rou.

Especially, during the few days in Yuanxiang, Ning Rou never showed any resentment towards her.

For no reason, her heart was hurt.

Sad for Ning Rou.

This evening meal was indeed a celebratory feast.

Not many people, only six.

In addition to the Pei family of four, there are Zhou Ruhong and Xu Xian.

The happiest person at the dinner table lasts for weeks.

He couldn’t think of a good solution for the side effects of the pregnancy membrane. He didn’t expect that this time he went on a business trip. When he came back, Xu Xian gave him a surprise and successfully helped him break through this bottleneck.

The smile on his face deepened when he thought that progesterone would be officially launched soon.

He really did not see the wrong person, Xu Xian’s talent was far higher than he imagined.

The three children of the Pei family have never married.

The eldest young master Pei Yi has a stable relationship and has a girlfriend who has been with him for five years abroad; as for the second young master Pei Li and the third young lady Pei Yi, they are both single.

No matter how good Xu Xian is, she is still an outsider in the end.

It would be perfect if she could be transformed from a student into a daughter-in-law.

“Xiao Xu, your mother lives alone in the country, is it okay?”

Xu Xian’s family conditions are not good. Her father died unexpectedly before she was born. Over the years, her mother and her daughter have been able to barely make a living relying on her mother to farm and sell cotton.

Although her family was poor, she herself was very competitive. She slowly moved up by reading, all the way from the countryside to the big city. At a young age, she studied with the most famous obstetrics and gynecology doctor in the country.

Zhou Ruguang has always valued her. After knowing her family’s situation, she always brought her name when applying for the program, so that she could get more subsidies and bonuses from the school, which also made the teacher-student relationship between the two more human.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was undoubtedly excellent.

Xu Xian was eating with her head down, when she was suddenly called, she hurriedly raised her head to respond, and even forgot to put down her chopsticks.

“My mom is fine.”

Zhou Ruguang nodded, stretched out his hand to hold his glasses, and his expression became more gentle.

“Speaking of which, you haven’t been home this summer, and your mother should really want to see you.”

“This time you helped the teacher solve the problem, the teacher will give you two days off.”

“Look what day you want to go home this month, I’ll let Pei Li drive you.”

Three sentences came in a row, causing the people at the table to be stunned at the same time.

Pei Xuan and Zhou Ruhong guessed Zhou Ruguang’s thoughts almost instantly.

On the contrary, Pei Li and Xu Xian still didn’t realize anything.

“Dad, the company is busy recently. I can’t go away. Let’s arrange the driver to see Miss Xu.”

Pei Li didn’t think about that, and politely rejected Zhou Ruguang’s proposal.

Xu Xian also shook her head.

“Teacher, you don’t need to take a holiday. I told my mother that I will go back for the new year.”

Zhou Ruguang was a little dissatisfied with the answers of the two, but he couldn’t force it.

Pei Yi didn’t say a word from beginning to end, just like watching a play.

It could be seen that Zhou Ruguang liked Xu Xian very much, even to the point where he wanted Xu Xian and Pei Li to be together.

Since he values ​​it so much, will he reveal to Xu Xian the experiments he did behind the scenes?

Even now, Xu Xian doesn’t know anything about this.

Pei Yi was fascinated by her thoughts, until Zhou Ruhong’s voice sounded in her ears, and she finally regained her senses.

“If you want to practice the piano, you can’t ignore your body.”

“It’s better to live in the piano room than to live at home?”

“Look at you, you are much thinner than when you returned to China.”

The tone of concern and love is the same as before.

But after seeing the indifference of the woman in front of her towards Ning Rou, Pei Yi’s heart could no longer feel a trace of warmth from those words.

She had only eaten half of the rice in the bowl, and she no longer had any appetite.

“Practice is important.”

“When the concert is over, there will be more time to rest.”

Zhou Ruguang was very satisfied with this answer.

“Prepare well.”

“Don’t let Dad down.”

Words full of anticipation make people feel stressed.

Pei Li remembered what happened in the afternoon, and couldn’t help but worry about her sister. After hesitating for a while, she still persuaded in a low voice.

“Dad, it’s just a show.”

Pei Yi really lost a lot of weight these days.

Pei Xuan felt sorry for her daughter, so she also agreed.

“She knows what to do, so don’t put so much pressure on her.”

All three spoke for Pei Yi, but they couldn’t change Zhou Ruguang’s thoughts.

He still insisted, and his tone was more serious.

“This time is different.”

“I invited a friend, and I can’t go wrong.”

Friends, is it more important than a daughter?

Pei Xuan had a heart attack.

For the first time in her life, she felt that her husband’s image was different from the gentle, gentle and family-friendly figure in her impression.

Seeing that her mother still wanted to speak for herself, Pei Yi hurriedly took a step to let go and ended the topic.

“Don’t worry, Dad, nothing will go wrong.”

“I will do well by then.”

With these two words of assurance, Zhou Ruguang’s face looked a little better.

And Pei Xuan closed her lips helplessly after looking at her daughter.

A meal took an hour to finish.

When Xu Xian was about to leave, it was already nine o’clock in the evening.

Zhou Ruguang saw the opportunity and called Pei Li on the sofa.

“You send Xiao Xu.”

The driver was clearly in the garage, but he named Pei Li to send Xu Xian away.

This time, the two parties also saw the fame.

The air suddenly became awkward.

Pei Li, who is twenty-six this year, is so busy developing her career that she has never thought about making friends, not to mention that a domineering girl like Xu Xian who is obsessed with scientific research is not his type at all.

I heard Zhou Ruguang’s words at this moment, he didn’t give it away, and it didn’t matter if he didn’t give it.

He had no choice but to look back at Pei Yi and ask his sister for help.

He was embarrassed by Zhou Ruguang’s request, and Xu Xian was the same.

She was thinking about how to reject this kind offer when she saw Pei Yi sitting quietly on the sofa, picked up her bag and walked towards her.

“Dad, let me send Dr. Xu.”

“I just drove the car to the piano room, so I don’t have to trouble the second brother to pick me up when I go home next time.”

Pei Yi’s words successfully rescued the two from their predicament.

Her reasons were legitimate, and Zhou Ruguang had to agree.

Xu Xian lives in an apartment building near the hospital, some distance from Pei’s house.

Pei Yi drove very slowly, and it took half an hour to send people downstairs.

She didn’t speak much along the way, until Xu Xian was about to get out of the car, and she took the initiative to call out “Doctor Xu” softly.

In the hospital, patients call themselves that every day, but when these three words come out of Pei Yi’s mouth, it always sounds a little bit different.

Xu Xian sat in the co-pilot, clutching the seat belt with her fingers, and her movements suddenly stopped.

Pei Yi turned her head and looked over with a pair of eyes like water, calm and calm.

“You work in a hospital, so you must know a lot of doctors, right?”

Xu Xian frowned when she heard the sound, and there was some surprise in her eyes.

“Um?”

Pei Yi let out a light sigh, and released both hands from the steering wheel, hanging in the air.

She didn’t move, but under the bright yellow light, the ten slender, white fingers kept shaking.

Xu Xian’s face changed suddenly, out of the doctor’s instinct, she directly held the beautiful hands without thinking, lowered her head and checked it carefully.

The hand was still shaking, but there was no scar on it.

It doesn’t look like it’s pretending, but some kind of stress response.

“your hands–“

“Why didn’t you tell the teacher?”

Xu Xian looked very anxious, thinking about it, she had already seen the problem.

The two held their hands together, and Pei Yi glanced down, but did not withdraw his hand.

She looked at the girl beside her, pursed her lips and smiled.

“How to say?”

“You should have seen how much he looks forward to the concert at the end of the month.”

“The reason why I sent you back to the apartment is actually to ask you to introduce me to a trusted psychiatrist, at least to make sure he doesn’t tell Dad about this.”

Pei Yi tonight is not the same as the previous two meetings.

She became gentle, quiet, and vulnerable.

The proud and beautiful white swan also has a sympathetic side.

Xu Xian could not refuse this request.

She released her hand, frowned tightly, and nodded without any hesitation.

“Okay.”

“Tomorrow, do you have time tomorrow?”

“I’ll take you to Haida to find Director Qiu of the Department of Psychology. I promise, she will never tell this story.”

The too straightforward answer made the smile on Pei Yi’s face deeper.

“Well, there is time.”

“thanks.”

If the smile just now was fake, then this smile is definitely from the heart.

She turned to the side, her upper body covered Xu Xian’s body, and with those two trembling hands, she untied the seat belt for the other party.

This pose is a bit intimate.

She smelled a hint of disinfectant, very light and light, like the spring breeze after the rain, clean and pure.

It was exactly the same feeling that Xu Xian gave her.
