last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Su Yan had never found Pei Xiao's face so pleasing to the eye.

No, is it okay if that man is Pei Xiao?

She didn't understand why she felt relaxed for a moment after seeing that the man in the bathroom was Pei Xiao.

Pei Xiao was wrapped in a bath towel, with his muscular upper body naked.

He came to her and reached out to touch her head.

"Are you stunned?"

Su Yan finally reacted when he felt the dent in the mattress beside him.

She clearly remembered that she was signing a mediation agreement with Su Luo yesterday, but after drinking a glass of drink, she remembered nothing.

No matter how stupid she was, she understood that Su Luo did it on purpose.

There's something wrong with that drink.

But how could that man be him?

Looking at Su Yan's puzzled expression, Pei Xiao was in a good mood.

"I came here to do some work yesterday, and I saw two people carrying you who was unconscious, so I rescued you."

As for how miserable the old man who was originally in this room had ended up, he decided not to tell the little white rabbit, for fear of scaring her.

"Thanks."

Su Yan stammered for a long time but could only utter these two words.

She kept twisting the corner of the quilt with her hands, recalling the "thank you" scene yesterday, and her face seemed to be burning.

"How do you thank me?"

"You can ask for anything you want."

Su Yan has nothing now and can only make such a vague oath.

"If the case goes well."

After adding this in a low voice, she almost buried her head in her chest.

Pei Xiao was about to speak when his exclusive ringtone rang. His face darkened and he pressed the answer button.

"Ah Xiao, I'm back."

A sweet female voice sounded, like a siren in the depths of the Aegean Sea, tempting him to open the Pandora's box that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

The memories came flooding back, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"Um."

His larynx rolled and he could only utter a short syllable.

After hanging up the phone, he felt very confused. He put on his clothes casually and left.

Su Yan was the only one left in the room, and she felt a lot more relaxed.

After going into the bathroom and taking a hot shower, she decided to reward herself with a good meal.

When she arrived at the lobby, she felt that the girls at the front desk were staring at her and whispering to each other from time to time.

It is also possible that she saw it wrongly, shook her head and did not think much about it.

She came to the fast food restaurant and prepared to have a simple meal.

After taking her food tray and finding a seat to sit down, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

It's dinner time now, but the seats around me are all empty, while the seats around me are full of people.

I don’t know if she is too sensitive or if it is true, but she always feels that people around her are pointing fingers at her.

Her stomach was empty, so she didn't have the energy to think about so many things. She picked up the burger in her hand and enjoyed the delicious food in front of her.

"You are really bold. You can still eat after doing such a thing."

Su Yan looked up and found that the woman standing in front of her with a child looked familiar. She looked at the child again and remembered that this was a student she had taught before.

"Are you Ziyou's mother?"

"Don't call our child by his name, you don't deserve it!"

The woman looked at Su Yan with disdain, completely lacking the respect she had before.

"May I ask what you just said?"

Only then did she realize that everything that had just happened was not her illusion.

"Don't you go online? You are a celebrity in Cloud City now. Everyone can even see clearly that you have a mole on the back of your neck."

Su Yan quickly opened his phone and found that the internet was flooded with nude photos of "himself".

Then she understood what was going on. She enlarged one of the pictures and a tiny mole on the back of her neck was clearly visible.

But her neck was completely white, with no mole at all.

This trick of replacing the prince with a cat should be Pei Xiao's work.

As for this photo, you can easily guess who took it.

After turning off the screen of his mobile phone, Su Yan clenched the phone tightly, unable to conceal the anger in his eyes.

She had originally planned to wait until there was progress in her father's case before settling accounts with Su Luo, but now she couldn't bear it any longer.

After quickly finishing the food on the plate, Su Yan hailed a car and rushed to the Su family.

Su family villa.

Su Luo was wearing a princess dress and a crown. She sat in the center and received flattery from her friends around her.

"Did you all see it? Su Yan's nude photos have gone viral. She has brought shame to our Su family!"

Friends around me opened their phones, looked through the photos and started talking about them.

"Lolo, this doesn't seem to be Su Yan, right?"

Some people raised questions, and the rest of the people enlarged the picture again and again.

Through constant comparison, everyone discovered that the woman in the photo was not Su Yan at all.

Su Luo widened his eyes and kept looking at the pictures. He could never imagine that such a careful plan of his would fail at the last moment.

She was so angry that she threw her phone to the ground, stood up, and started cursing without caring about her image.

"This little bitch, I don't know how she is so lucky that she can get away with this!"

"Lolo, could it be that you asked someone to take the photo?"

The girls present heard her words and guessed what was going on. Su Luo quickly denied it.

"How is that possible? What does that girl doing something wrong outside have to do with me?"

“Lolo!”

Seeing Su Luo lose his composure, Su Qi quickly spoke out to stop him.

"Dad! I don't know what tricks that damn girl Su Yan used to charm Pei Lu so much that we made her a wedding dress."

Her plan failed, it must be Pei Xiao who helped her behind the scenes.

"Don't be discouraged, Dad is here for you."

Su Qi patted Su Luo's back gently to ease her excitement.

"Dad, I must be with Pei Xiao, definitely!"

Su Luo grabbed Su Qi's arm, her eyes full of expectation. She went to the School of Political Science and Law just for Pei Xiao, and she would never allow him to be with anyone else.

"Okay, okay, Dad promises you."

Patting her hands gently, Su Qi's eyes were filled with deep love for his daughter.

When the friends around saw Su Luo like this, they all found excuses to leave, leaving only the father and daughter in the hall.

"The Su family is now in Dad's pocket. You are the eldest daughter of the Su family. With this identity, it will be much easier for you."

He played such a big chess game all for his daughter. Now everything has been settled, except for Su Yan's problem.

"With that girl around, I can't be with Pei Lu."

"Don't worry, a girl just needs to get married."

After he betroths Su Yan to Boss Wang, not only will this big problem be solved, but the Su family will also be able to move to a higher level after the benefits Boss Wang promised him are fulfilled.

By then, Su Luo will have more bargaining chips, and things with Pei Xiao will be a natural outcome, right?

I've never seen her before."The love rival is extremely jealous when he meets her, and everyone around him is looking at the excitement.Su Yan didn't want to get involved in this whirlpool, but he could only lower his eyelids and accept it."I'll drink it for her."Before she could react, the wine glass in her hand had been taken away.Watching the man lift the wine glass, the glass bottomed out as his Adam's apple rolled.Shen Xi wanted to embarrass Su Yan, but unexpectedly gave Pei Xiao a chance to save her.The hand she held tightly to the wine glass turned slightly white from exertion, and the decent smile she kept on her face f

She could only curl up into a ball, hoping for a miracle to happen."Get away!

Hiss— "Not sure if it was cold or painful, Shen Xi bit her lower lip tightly and clenched her fists.He remembered that she was most afraid of pain and taking medicine.In the past, he always coaxed her to take painkillers.

    Seeing that Shen Xiaoyun finally fell asleep peacefully, Su Yan's heart calmed down a little.When she thought of Su Luo's words just now, she felt worried.As long as their father remains unjust for a day, their orphans and widowed mothers will have no peace for a day.Looking at her bloodless face, Pei Xiao pointed to the porridge on the bedside table."Eat quickly, it will get cold soon."Su Yan glanced at the porridge on the bedside table and looked at him suspiciously, not expecting him to be so kind."Would you like some water?"I thought she couldn't drink, so I asked her if she wanted to drink some water first.Such an action scared Su Yan even more. How could a man who was obviously indifferent to her suddenly become so considerate?Seeing that she remained silent, Pei Xiao knew that she was doubting him.He didn't expect that his kindness was regarded as injustice by others, and he explained helplessly.

    "What are you talking about?"Hearing Pei Xiao's voice, Chen Xi's body froze instantly.He quickly turned his head and showed a standard smile, with a generous demeanor."My feet still hurt a little. Come and take a look. I happened to come and see Su Yan."Her explanation made sense.But knowing her as well as Pei Xiao, he naturally knew what kind of calculation she had in mind."Please don't come near Su Yan again."The polite and distant words made Shen Xi feel that this time she truly felt like an outsider.The hand holding the handle of the bag unconsciously exerted force, holding back the tears that burst out of his eyes, and quietly looked at the increasingly unfamiliar man in front of him."These are the supplements I bought for you, remember to take them."He walked around Shen Xi and put what he was carrying on the bedside table.Looking at the half-eaten porridge, I felt a little dissatisfied.

    Su Yan heard his words but did not answer, which was regarded as his agreement. He went back to his room. Zhou Xin also knocked on the door wearing the huge diamond ring.Naturally knowing that she was now Pei Xiao's lobbyist, Su Yan still had that cold expression on his face when he opened the door."When are you going to have the wedding?"The best friend finally found her own happiness, and she would sincerely wish her well no matter how much misfortune she herself suffered."That's too early. What I want to talk about is you and Lawyer Pei ...

    "Don't worry, I can handle everything myself."Not wanting to stay with Pei Xiao anymore, Su Yan put on his coat and walked out of the room, pacing back and forth. He originally wanted to discuss it with Zhou Xin, but was afraid of disturbing her and Zhang Chenghan.I had already reached the door, but gave up and went to the balcony to relax, not noticing the person behind me."Miss Su, did you enjoy it just now?"She turned around and found it was Xiao Ya, and she was furious."You did it?""I just want to see if Lawyer Pei, who loves you so much, will really marry you."Xiao Ya didn't believe that Pei Xiao would really marry a woman whose family had lost power, so she just waited to see her make a fool of herself.A poor young lady who got pregnant before marriage, no matter which one of them was picked out alone, it would be enough for the people of Jiangcheng to talk about it for a month, let alone both of them.

Thank you, Lawyer Pei."She did not linger in the fight, and after feeling the man's warmth for a moment, she immediately stood up.Like a child who had done something wrong, she stood beside Pei Xiao, twisting her hands, not knowing where to go."Standing passengers please return to your seats immediately."The flight attendant reminded her again and again, and found that she was still standing in the aisle, so she walked over quickly with a look of impatience on her face."Miss, you are not allowed to come to this cabin. Please return to your seat."When booking the tickets, Pei Xiao deliberately placed Xiao Ya's seat not far from them, but in a separate cabin. Faced with the stewardess's accusations, she felt even more embarrassed.

This feeling is amazing. Before I met Xiaoye, I thought I was a cold person, but the moment I saw her, I realized that I could be a lively person."These cheesy words, which came from the bottom of his heart, gave Pei Xiao goose bumps.The smoke made it difficult to see his half-closed eyes.The two friends in the room had not seen each other for a long time. Unlike her considerate attitude on the phone, Zhou Xin was also very dissatisfied with her behavior of not coming."You are so good, Su Yan, you didn't come to see me for such a long time? Do you know how I got here?"She hugged Su Yan's arm and acted coquettishly, which made Su Yan feel even more guilty, and he had no choice but to make a promise quickly.

He could see through her ill intentions at a glance. However, she had already handed over her trump card and could only show weakness."Look for yourself, I have always been innocent. If I hadn't loved you so much, I wouldn't have done such a thing."She lifted the quilt and deliberately revealed the red spot on it, just to let him know her loyalty."You didn't get this

    Louder than the exclamations was the sound of a loud slap.Su Yan stared at the red and swollen lips, her eyes wide open. She was furious at having made such a fool of herself in front of so many people."You're really going too far."Misty eyes gradually formed. She had never suffered such an injustice before.Pei Xiao regretted it the moment he was slapped. Looking at Su Yan's back as he hurriedly left, Lin Jiaxu was about to chase him but was scared away by a look from him."Mind your own business."Then he chased after her. Lin Jiaxu behind him didn't want to give up but was held back by Xiao Ya."I heard that Master Lin and Miss Su are in a relationship?"She deliberately went up to talk to him just to avoid being laughed at. After all, she had to keep a man by her side...."Yanyan, it was my fault just now. I shouldn't have done that ... "Before he could finish his words, he was slapped hard in the face

They were just whispering below, wanting to see if she would use her status to get away with drinking.For the sake of the image she had worked so hard to establish in the company, she had no choice but to reach out and take the next cup.His hand was covered by a pair of soft and warm hands. Looking up along his arm, Pei Xiao frowned, but never said the words of concern."Let me answer this question.""How can Lawyer Pei replace President Su?

She was now in so much pain that she was about to faint and naturally had no strength to struggle.“Yanyan!”Ignoring Lin Jiaxu's shouting behind him, Pei Xiao carried the person into the RV.Xiao Ya followed in and looked at the loving appearance of the two people in front of her.
