Goodbye, scumbag husband, the one who is not loved is the clown
Chapter 32 A tough battle
The man's stern face enlarged in front of him. Xu Jiayun frowned and turned away subconsciously.
His lips stopped at the corner of her mouth, his breath falling, his voice cold, "What are you hiding from?"
Hiding was a subconscious reaction. Xu Jiayun bit the back of his teeth in regret, glanced around, and said in a low voice, "They are all watching."
Hearing this, Pei Sangyu narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing: “…”
Okay, excuse me.
Zhou Jing quickly got into the car.
Chi Yu sent the gardeners to work in the backyard.
Then Chi Yu pulled A Yuan and said he wanted to go to the kitchen to watch the chef kill a chicken...
In an instant, only Pei Sangyu and Xu Jiayun were left in the yard.
Pei Sangyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Jiayun.
There was a hint of teasing in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was waiting for her to take the initiative.
Xu Jiayun was extremely resistant, but if she continued to avoid it, Pei Sangyu would definitely become suspicious!
She put her arms around the man's neck, stood on tiptoe, and raised her chin slightly.
Pei Sangyu held her lower back with his big hands, leaned forward and pressed his super pink lips close to hers...
"Ah!"
A sudden sneeze sounded, and Pei Sangyu was stunned.
Xu Jiayun covered her nose with one hand, pushed him away, turned her face to the side and sneezed twice more.
Pei Sangyu closed his eyes, raised his hand to wipe his cheek, and then looked at her coldly, "Xu Jiayun, you better not mean it."
Xu Jiayun covered her nose, her eyes misting from the sneezing. She blinked innocently, "Let's go inside. It's so cold outside."
Pei Sangyu looked at her, and after a moment of silence, he seemed to sigh, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, "Forget it, get in the car."
Xu Jiayun frowned, "Where are you going?"
Pei Sangyu grabbed her wrist and said calmly, "Go do what you, Mrs. Pei, should do."
...
Twenty minutes later, the black Maybach stopped at a private custom-made makeup club.
Chi Yu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, got out of the car, walked to the back seat and opened the door on Xu Jiayun's side.
Pei Sangyu leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and said calmly, "Zhou Jing and Chi Yu will accompany you in."
Xu Jiayun nodded.
After entering the club, Zhou Jing communicated with the stylist, and the stylist took Xu Jiayun to do makeup and styling.
Chi Yu followed the whole process.
Because she was pregnant, she kept everything simple and the entire makeup was completed in about twenty minutes.
Xu Jiayun stood in front of a full-length mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, with amazement flashing in her eyes.
The woman in the mirror has a delicate oval face that looks even more tender and bright because of the light makeup. Her waist-length hair is tied up to reveal her slender neck. The lotus pink one-shoulder fishtail dress outlines her graceful figure. Her belly is not yet visible and her waist is slender.
Chi Yu stood behind her, looking at Xu Jiayun in the mirror. Although she was usually indifferent, she couldn't help but curl her lips and comment: "If Ah Yuan saw this, he would scream that he was crazy again."
Xu Jiayun felt a little embarrassed and raised her hand to touch the two slender arms like white lotus roots. "But it's still a little cold."
Hearing this, the stylist took the white mink coat from the assistant, draped it over Xu Jiayun's shoulders, and smiled gently, "How could Mr. Pei be willing to let his wife suffer from the cold!"
Xu Jiayun pursed her lips and smiled faintly.
Pei Sangyu only cares about the baby in her belly.
Coming out of the club, Xu Jiayun looked up at the gray sky and said softly, "It should snow again today."
"The weather report said there would be heavy snow tonight, so President Pei arranged the family dinner at noon." Zhou Jing explained.
Family dinner?
Xu Jiayun was a little surprised. "Is it the Pei family's family dinner?"
Zhou Jing said, "It's a family dinner where the two families are discussing the details of the wedding."
Hearing this, Xu Jiayun frowned slightly.
It seems that there is still a tough battle to fight.
……
A high-end private banquet hall on the 8th floor of a five-star hotel.
The luxurious round table can seat twenty people at a time.
When Xu Jiayun and Pei Sangyu arrived, everyone else had already arrived.
Mrs. Pei sat in the main seat, Shen Haoming sat in the second main seat, and then following them were the relatives and elders of the two families.
After sitting down, Mrs. Pei asked the waiter to prepare the dishes.
Relatives from both sides also came to participate in this family dinner.
As Shen Haoming started his own business from scratch and his family was not in Yuecheng, he had few close relatives over the past few decades. Apart from Shen Haoming and Su Yunrong, Shen Haoming only called two elders. According to seniority, Xu Jiayun should call them uncle and great-uncle.
In fact, Su Yunrong didn't want to come at all. She had quarreled with Shen Haoming at home because of the wedding these days. In the end, she was beaten by Shen Haoming, and then she cooperated honestly.
At this moment, she was sitting next to Shen Haoming. She looked dignified and wealthy, but in fact, her bones were still aching all over. Therefore, when she looked at Xu Jiayun, the resentment in her eyes became even stronger!
On the Pei family side, Pei Sangyu’s grandfather had two sons and three daughters.
Pei Sangyu's father was the eldest son, and his uncle was the second son. He also died in an accident five years after Pei Sangyu's father's death. The second wife of the Pei family immigrated abroad with her two children. She rarely returned to China in recent years, so it was impossible for her to come back specially to attend this family dinner.
The three daughters are already married, and they have seldom been in contact with each other since the old man passed away. When they heard that the girl to be married was an illegitimate daughter of the Shen family, they refused to show up no matter what.
Mrs. Pei did not force it, and invited several elders of the Pei family who had some influence to help put the party in order. Then, on the grounds that it would be more lively with more people, she even invited Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Yixiu as well.
Mrs. Sheng did not consider herself a guest at all. She dressed up and wore all the jewelry.
Sheng Yixiu was wearing a burgundy evening gown, with gorgeous makeup and a high-profile brick crown on her head.
If someone didn't know, they would think she was the bride-to-be.
In comparison, Xu Jiayun's makeup looks too light and elegant.
Sheng Yixiu noticed Xu Jiayun's gaze, raised her chin and raised her eyebrows at her, full of provocation.
Xu Jiayun looked at her calmly, curled her lips slightly, and said in a soft voice, "Miss Sheng is dressed so beautifully today. The red dress and the crown are really eye-catching."
When Sheng Yixue heard this, she thought Xu Jiayun was jealous and said proudly, "I like this kind of dress. Do you have any objections?"
Xu Jiayun's smile deepened. "Miss Sheng, you're too polite. You're the guest today, and your happiness is the most important thing."
Hearing this, the two elders present all looked sideways at Sheng Yixue.
"If you're a guest, you should behave like one." The uncle of the Shen family shook his head and sighed, "The Sheng family is a century-old family after all. Don't you know this basic etiquette?"
The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
After hearing this, several elders from both families nodded frequently.
Sheng Yixiu's smug face froze for a moment, then she realized that she had been outmaneuvered by Xu Jiayun. She was so angry that she wanted to scold Xu Jiayun, but her arm was pulled by Madam Sheng beside her.
She frowned and turned to look at her mother in confusion, "Mom, what are you doing?"
"Shut up." Madam Sheng glared at her with a look of disappointment. "The elders haven't spoken yet, why are you, a junior, trying to steal the limelight?"
These words seemed to be a lesson to his own daughter, but in fact they were also pointing at Xu Jiayun.
As expected, just as Madam Sheng finished her words, Madam Pei's voice rang out: "Today is a family dinner for the two families to discuss their marriage. Jiayun, as a junior, you should greet the elders first. This is basic etiquette. Didn't the Shen family teach you?"
As soon as Mrs. Pei finished speaking, the elders turned their attention to Xu Jiayun again.
