Divorce and flash marriage, CEO ex-husband regrets heartbreak

Shanshui Huating, Pei Linxiao's private residence.

At 2 a.m., the doorbell rang.

Pei Linxiao was still working at this time. When he heard the ringtone, he put down the tablet and went to the door.

With a click, the heavy and solid door opened, and what came into his dark sight was Li Qin's pale and dusty face.

She had lost weight. This was Pei Linxiao's first impression. Looking more closely, he found that her previously bright and clear eyes had become much dimmer, like pearls covered with dust, no longer as sparkling as before.

"Brother... No, Mr. Pei." Li Qin called him instinctively, but when she noticed his sword-like brows furrowed in a sinister frown, she quickly changed her address.

Ever since she was kicked out of the Pei family, Pei Linxiao hated her calling him brother the most.

"Come in first." The man's tall and straight body slightly tilted to the side, motioning her to enter the house.

Li Qin clenched her fingers, then walked in with her suitcase, but she was a little dazed at the entrance.

Pei Linxiao saw her pause, frowned and said nothing.

Seeing him staring at her, Li Qin said hurriedly and embarrassedly, "My shoes are a little dirty." The implication was that her change of shoes was not at the entrance.

Pei Linxiao glanced at her, then leaned over, opened the shoe cabinet door, took out a pair of brand new pink women's shoes and threw them at her feet, "Put them on." After saying that, he turned and walked towards the sofa.

Li Qin looked down at the pink slippers on her feet, and her eyes suddenly felt a little sour. Pink? They should have been worn by Pei Qin.

Thinking that Pei Qin might have worn these shoes, Li Qin felt a pang in her chest as if a heavy stone was pressing on it. It turned out that there was a difference between a real daughter and a fake one.

Because even though she was the daughter of the Pei family before, she had never been here, and Pei Linxiao did not allow it.

"Come here." A deep and mellow voice broke the quiet atmosphere, revealing a sternness that did not allow anyone to speak.

Li Qin pursed her lips, adjusted her mood, and walked straight to Pei Linxiao.

He stood as obediently as a high school student, and his thin figure looked even thinner under the light, as if he was malnourished.

Pei Linxiao squinted his eyes and looked her up and down, his gaze anxious and his expression stern.

His narrow eyes, as deep as a cold pond, fell on her restless fingers. "Do you know what it means to step into this place?"

Li Qin nodded, "I know, Mr. Pei, don't worry. I won't bother Mr. and Mrs. Pei again, and I won't take anything that belongs to Miss Pei."

She still had some self-awareness. Although she had been unwilling when he threw her abroad, five years had passed and her willful edges had long been smoothed out.

Besides, if you think about it calmly, what qualifications does she have to snatch Pei Qin's things?

It was originally her who had occupied someone else's identity for more than 20 years by accident. Anyone with a little shame would not be so shameless as to want to take over someone else's identity after he appeared.

"What do you think you have robbed Pei Qin of?" Pei Linxiao asked in his heart.

Li Qin bit her lower lip and said, "I stole her parents, her identity, and her wealth and glory."

"anything else?"

"And... stole her brother." Li Qin's voice was as low as dust.

No one knew how much pain the word "brother" expressed in her heart. She always thought that five years was enough for her to let go and accept everything.

But it was not until she faced Pei Linxiao in person that she realized that some persistent thoughts really could not be changed by time.

For example, she was very greedy for the love that Pei Linxiao once had for her and doted on her.

"Do you really like calling me brother so much?" When Pei Linxiao heard her soft and sticky word "brother", the blood in his body suddenly flowed backwards.

His dark and deep eyes fell on her beautiful face, and his Adam's apple rolled violently.

He picked up the water on the coffee table and gulped it down.

Damn it, after all these years, his desire for her was almost uncontrollable.

Just like now, he wished he could press such a well-behaved and soft girl under him...bully and ravage her.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Pei. I will pay more attention next time." Li Qin didn't know Pei Linxiao's paranoid thoughts. She thought that the word "brother" that she had just said unintentionally had irritated him, so she hurriedly explained.

Pei Linxiao said nothing, his anxious and fiery eyes just staring at her lowered brows and submissive appearance, his rationality gradually collapsing.

Reaching out, he unexpectedly pulled Li Qin into his arms. A frightening gloom and paranoia flashed across his handsome face. "Do you miss me?"

The slender fingertips caressed Li Qin's delicate face, and her brain exploded.

When her pair of dead and dark eyes noticed Pei Linxiao's ambiguous gesture of caressing her face, she breathed rapidly, "Boss Pei, what are you doing? Let me go."

After she finished speaking, she struggled to get up from the man's arms, but the man's warm and dry big hand was like a solid wall, and no matter how she struggled, she couldn't get loose.

Suddenly, she panicked. Meeting Pei Linxiao's emotionless dark eyes, she trembled and said, "Boss Pei, please let me go."

The man's gaze was too invasive and uncomfortable.

But he is her brother, how could he...

"I'm not your brother." The low and hoarse voice seemed to see through Li Qin's thoughts and spoke in a deep voice.

"It seems that you never take my words to heart, Li Qin, what am I in your heart?"

Pei Linxiao's eyes were filled with paranoia. His slender fingers gently clicked on Li Qin's chin, and the scorching temperature made Li Qin's heart beat faster and her face flushed.

She didn't know what Pei Linxiao was trying to do, but she was scared by the way he held her in his arms and caressed her cheek wantonly.

Moreover, even after knowing each other for many years, this was the first time she saw him look so sinister and terrifying, as if he wanted to eat someone alive.

Pei Linxiao had a very serious face to begin with, and now his sword-like brows were slightly furrowed, and his thin lips were tightly pursed, making his aura appear even more powerful. Li Qin was so scared that her legs were shaking.

"Pei, President Pei..."

"Did I say that only my woman can enter Shanshui Hua Ting?"

Pei Linxiao lifted Li Qin's chin and forced her to look at him. His hot breath sprayed on Li Qin's cheek, burning like fire.

Li Qin was almost driven crazy by this heat. His words, "Only my woman can enter," flashed through her mind, and her face turned paler and paler.

No way, could Pei Linxiao...

"Hmm." Before Li Qin could finish thinking about what was going to happen next, her lips were suddenly kissed hard.

Suddenly, her pupils widened as she looked at the handsome face in front of her, and her brain went blank.

Pei Linxiao? Kiss her?

Oh my God, is he crazy? She is his sister. Even if they are not related by blood, she has called him brother for more than ten years. How could he have the heart to do that to her?
