The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.

After Pei Yuanzhou and Zhang Jiayuan held their wedding, the Pei family's situation stabilized. Nevertheless, the Pei family was no longer one of the most prestigious families in Ningcheng. They no longer made a show of themselves when they went out, and everything became more low-key.

The Pei family was also saved.

Pei Yuanzhou's father-in-law personally went to the Xing family and Xing Yanzhao to discuss matters, offering a high price in exchange for Xing Yanzhao letting Pei family off the hook.

Neither Pei Yuanzhou nor the Pei family posed any threat to Xing Yanzhao. Given the Zhang family's generous gesture, Xing Yanzhao nodded, indicating that he would no longer target the Pei family and that everyone would rely on their own abilities in business matters.

When this matter was mentioned, Luo Huai also learned from Xing Yanzhao that nowadays, half of the Pei family members are surnamed Pei and the other half are surnamed Zhang.

In other words, the current Pei family property is the joint property of Pei Yuanzhou and Zhang Jiayuan, and Pei's parents and Pei Youyou have no right to touch it.

The three of them were all supported by their son, Pei Yuanzhou.

Pei Yuanzhou had always shouldered the heavy responsibility of supporting his family, so he naturally had no objections. However, he strictly controlled Pei Youyou's spending. Pei Youyou went from being a rich young lady who could spend millions every month at will to a down-on-her-luck young lady who only had 100,000 yuan in pocket money every month.

One hundred thousand yuan wouldn't even be enough for her to have a meal abroad, let alone buy some luxury goods. Pei Youyou was naturally unhappy, but she didn't make a scene; she just pitifully begged her brother.

She acted as before, getting whatever she wanted just by being coquettish, but she forgot that she had a sister-in-law who held 50% of the shares in the Pei family business.

Zhang Jiayuan asked her whether she wanted to cry or not.

Pei Youyou said that her brother only gave her 100,000 yuan a month. Zhang Jiayuan said thoughtfully, "100,000 yuan is indeed a bit too much. Let's change it to 60,000 yuan. The number six is ​​more auspicious."

Pei Yuanzhou never interfered with Zhang Jiayuan's decisions, partly because he couldn't interfere, and partly because he had no way to interfere.

After several attempts, Pei Youyou realized that Zhang Jiayuan was in charge at home, so she started to imitate the behavior of those who had tried to please her and began to try to please Zhang Jiayuan.

Zhang Jiayuan was pleased with her flattery, and Pei Youyou thought that her flattery had worked. She dragged Zhang Jiayuan shopping and immediately took a fancy to a new bag that was being packed up at a luxury brand counter.

Unfortunately, that was the New Year's gift that Xing Yanzhao had ordered for Luo Huai.

When Luo Huai was six months pregnant, her belly grew bigger and bigger. Xing Yanzhao wouldn't let her go to work, but he didn't stop her from taking walks and shopping.

The bag was originally supposed to be delivered directly to Binjiang Bay, but Luo Huai had just finished eating nearby and was feeling very full, so he decided to walk over to pick it up.

As soon as one foot stepped into the luxury store, Pei Youyou's coquettish voice reached the ear.

"Sister-in-law, this bag is beautiful!" She looked on expectantly, hoping Zhang Jiayuan would buy it for her.

Zhang Jiayuan nodded in agreement: "It looks really good, you should buy it."

"Excuse me, miss, this bag has already been reserved, and we are just about to deliver it to the customer."

"I've got my eye on it, it's mine!" Pei Youyou clutched the bag tightly, refusing to let go.

Zhang Jiayuan rolled her eyes, still thinking she was the same Pei family's eldest daughter she used to be.

Do you have a million dollars on hand?

"Sister-in-law, weren't you the one who bought this for me?"

"When did I say that?" Just because Zhang Jiayuan was pleased with Pei Youyou's flattery didn't mean she would spend money on her.

She's in her twenties, and she still has to take 60,000 yuan from her husband's pocket every month. Just thinking about it makes her heart ache.

That 60,000 yuan is enough for her husband to buy a new tie.

Pei Youyou was immediately stunned. In the blink of an eye, the shop assistant had already taken the bag and quickly replaced the packaging.

Luo Huai walked over at that moment, and the bodyguard took out a form and said, "Get your things."

The sales clerk took one look and realized it was the bag she was holding, worth two million.

It was reserved by Mr. Xing for his wife!

"Mrs. Xing! Why did you come all the way here? We were just about to deliver it to you."

“It’s nearby, I just stopped by to pick it up.” Luo Huai smiled slightly, already noticing the two blatant gazes beside him.

She turned her head and met his gaze briefly.

One was filled with anger, the other with scrutiny.

An angry Pei Youyou was gossiping with Zhang Jiayuan; her voice was soft, but still audible.

"Sister-in-law, this is Luo Huai, my brother's white moonlight. You must snatch the bag today and let her know who Mrs. Pei is."

It's practically using someone else to do the dirty work.

Luo Huai didn't know anything about Zhang Jiayuan and didn't know if she would really listen to Pei Youyou.

The bodyguard who entered the store with her was also worried that the other party might really harm her. He turned his head to look at the microphone on his collar, as if he would immediately call over the other bodyguards if anyone dared to speak rudely to her.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jiayuan suddenly extended her hand in a friendly gesture.

"Hello Mrs. Xing, my name is Zhang Jiayuan."

The anticipated tense standoff between the current girlfriend and the "white moonlight" did not materialize, leaving Pei Youyou so surprised her eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

How could this be?

"Hello, Mrs. Pei, my name is Luo Huai." Luo Huai grasped her hand, a simple handshake, without any other meaning.

"So this bag is yours. I'm really sorry, my sister-in-law is notoriously arrogant, and I haven't been able to discipline her properly since I married into the family. Sigh." After all, a leopard can't change its spots.

Pei Youyou was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode.

Zhang Jiayuan didn't care that Luo Huai was her brother's "white moonlight" (ideal love), so why did she turn around and insult her?

What about all that fawning over her these past few days?

Seeing that Pei Youyou was indeed as rumored, completely under the control of her sister-in-law, Luo Huai couldn't help but chuckle.

"What are you laughing at?" Pei Youyou glared at Luo Huai, but she knew that she couldn't be easily offended by Luo Huai's current status, so she silently hid behind Zhang Jiayuan.

Zhang Jiayuan moved aside.

Luo Huai glanced at them casually, and the bodyguards behind him followed suit, their eyes filled with fierce intent.

Pei Youyou flinched.

Luo Huai didn't have the habit of arguing with shrewish women in the street, so he turned and left, but the relentless barking of the mad dog still echoed behind him.

"Just like that, she's gone? Zhang Jiayuan, she's the woman my brother cherishes!" Pei Youyou dropped the pretense and called her by her name directly.

"Didn't you really like my brother? When my family was down on its luck, you fawned over him with money, and you even spoke to Luo Huai so politely. You're the daughter of a billionaire, how can you be so humble?"

“My parents are the richest people in J City, not the richest in the country, let alone the richest in the world. I know my place, I’m not like you.”

"Also, I'm not a woman who centers her life around love. Of course I love my husband very much. Who wouldn't like someone as handsome and charismatic as him?"

"I really have to thank you. If it weren't for you, my husband would never have pushed away his first love. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to marry the person I love just because of a few bucks."

"Forget about being a 'white moonlight' (a term for someone who is single and unmarried), as long as he doesn't cheat, works hard to earn money, takes good care of himself, and exercises well, I guarantee that half of the money in my pocket will be his."

The more Luo Huai listened, the more something seemed off. It felt like Zhang Jiayuan was using Pei Yuanzhou as a tool.

During her brief pause, Pei Youyou's anger turned to her again.

"Luo Huai, what are you so smug about? How many years can you hold onto your husband's heart? Once you lose your appeal, will he still like you?"

"Oh, no need to wait until later. You're pregnant now, and that's when men are most likely to cheat on their wives!"
