Seeing that Luo Huai and Luo Yunshang hadn't moved, they went over together.

When Luo Huai saw Pei Yuanzhou at the door, he had already changed his clothes. Luo Huai knew that he had a habit of keeping an extra set of clothes in his car.

She didn't know about the gift she was carrying.

"Yunshang, Xiaohuai, may I come in?" Pei Yuanzhou asked with a smile, ignoring Xing Yanzhao who was blocking two-thirds of the door frame. "It's been a long time since I've visited Professor Luo and Professor Lin. I happen to have some free time today."

Luo Huai stared at his chest. "You should go to the hospital first."

"Xiao Huai's concern is enough, it's nothing." Pei Yuanzhou still smiled. He wanted to ignore Xing Yanzhao, but Xing Yanzhao's scorching gaze was inescapable.

He looked up and met his gaze, his eyes filled with provocation.

Just as things were about to turn into a chaotic scene, Luo Yunshang spoke up: "President Pei, today is the day my sister is bringing her husband back to her parents' home. It's inconvenient for us to receive guests. Please understand."

As expected of Luo Huai's sister, even Luo Yunshang was angry with him because of the Pei family's decision to have Luo Huai marry in place of her.

Pei Yuanzhou inwardly grumbled.

"Today is not the day for returning to the bride's parents' home. I have accompanied Luo Huai here many times before, and I am Luo Huai's brother, so I can't be considered an outsider."

When Pei Yuanzhou said "Luo Huai's brother," Luo Huai smiled and said, "Brother Yuanzhou is right, he is my brother. Come in."

Luo Huai declared that Xing Yanzhao, unwilling to admit the person, would also let him in.

Pei Yuanzhou, feeling smug, took a step forward toward Luo Huai.

Luo Huai moved aside and sat next to Xing Yanzhao.

Xing Yanzhao lowered his eyes and curled his lips into a smile.

"Okay, please sit down, Mr. Pei." Luo Yunshang invited him to sit down, and then quickly sent a message in the group to explain the situation.

Luo Huai's phone vibrated, but she didn't dare to look at it.

Just as Xing Yanzhao was about to close the door, his assistant, carrying two bags and sweating profusely, came up to him and was about to call for help.

"You've worked hard, go back now." Xing Yanzhao took the things, stopped him from speaking, and closed the door.

In an instant, the coffee table was piled high with gifts for the two of them.

The left two-thirds were given by Xing Yanzhao, and the right one-third were given by Pei Yuanzhou.

Xing Yanzhao won decisively.

Pei Yuanzhou's expression turned slightly unpleasant, but it didn't matter how much the gift was delivered; he knew the Luo couple much better than Xing Yanzhao did.

He smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"Can I use the restroom to change my clothes?" Xing Yanzhao asked the two sisters.

Luo Huai stood up: "No need to go to the bathroom, come to my room to change."

Xing Yanzhao was somewhat surprised that Luo Huai actually had his own room here. He carried the paper bag and followed Luo Huai over. When they reached the door of the room, he said, "You come too."

"Hmm?" Luo Huai's eyes widened slightly, becoming round and shiny, making him look even more like a cat.

"I need your help."

"okay."

The two went into the room together and closed the door.

Luo Huai then noticed a watermark on the back of his vest. "How did you get that?"

"The old lady poked her with a broom." Xing Yanzhao rushed to the nearby hospital, where the old lady had already woken up.

And having just learned from Kuangye that he had abandoned Luo Huai at the Civil Affairs Bureau, she grabbed a broom from the side and started hitting him.

He dodged, and the old woman missed.

Thinking the matter was over, he turned around and spoke to the doctor when the old lady swung a broom at his back.

He scolded him arrogantly and haughtily.

"You irresponsible bastard! Now that you've married her, she's your wife. How can you just leave her there all alone! What will she think of her? What will others say about her? She's just a young girl, forced to marry you, and you're already having a terrible time. You should at least treat her well!"

"Is this how I taught you? Is this how I taught you!" One slap wasn't enough; the old lady hit him several more times. It was a pity the broom wasn't a wooden stick, otherwise she could have beaten him to death.

It was only after the old lady scolded him that he realized he was wrong.

After consulting with the doctor and finding no major problems, he had someone check the license plate and investigate Luo Huai's social connections. They discovered the car was parked in their residential complex, and the investigation revealed that the Luo family, who were close to her, lived there.

Fortunately, the hospital was nearby, so he arrived in time.

Otherwise, that persistent Pei Yuanzhou might cause Luo Huai a lot of trouble.

Luo Huai had feelings for him before.

He couldn't stand their tugging and pulling.

"Did something happen to Grandma?" Luo Huai remembered that she had bought some locust honey and left it at the Luo family's house. She would make some for him to drink later.

"It's an old problem. I had a tough life when I was young and overworked myself. I don't have any major problems, but I have a lot of minor ones that keep popping up like mushrooms after rain. Especially after the car accident I was in last month, there are even more problems now. I need to continue to recuperate."

It's already early November, last month, when Xing Yanzhao returned to the Xing family.

"It's good that you're alright." Luo Huai was relieved.

Raise your eyes.

Xing Yanzhao took off his vest and shirt in front of her without any hesitation, revealing half of his muscular upper body.

Luo Huai: "!!!"

Close your eyes and turn around.

All in one go.

As Xing Yanzhao put on his clothes, he said, "It was my fault for leaving you there all alone today. I promise it won't happen again."

"it does not matter."

He could tell that Luo Huai genuinely didn't care, so he nodded, thinking to himself that it was true; marrying him wasn't Luo Huai's original intention.

There was nothing she could do; she got married.

Once someone is in his hands, there's no reason to return them.

It's about getting the marriage certificate, though.

Let's leave some room for the young girl.

He just wants to be happy.

Let's go when the girl is in a better mood.

When the Luo family renovated their house, only the main door was soundproofed; the rooms inside were not. Any noise from the bedroom could be heard in the living room.

Pei Yuanzhou could vaguely hear the two people talking, but he couldn't hear them anymore after that.

My heart was in my throat.

His gaze occasionally swept over there.

Luo Huai never went into the Luo family's bedroom. He would always drop people off, say hello to the Luo family, and leave, only to come back to pick them up later.

"What is President Pei looking at?" Luo Yunshang asked knowingly. She had a delicate face, was intellectual and elegant, and always spoke slowly and calmly, looking at you with a smile in her eyes. She was a typical beauty from a scholarly family.

I'm never stage-frightened.

When Pei Yuanzhou met her eyes for a moment, he felt a little guilty.

"Young Master Xing's clothes have been changed for a while."

"It's normal for newlyweds to take a while to change clothes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yuanzhou's smile froze slightly.

"President Pei seems unhappy."

"No."

"It's normal to have that." Luo Yunshang drinks hot water all year round and occasionally drinks some freshly squeezed juice. She never touches things like tea that keep her awake and increase the burden on her heart.

Pei Yuanzhou looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"President Pei is Luo Huai's brother. Usually, brothers are reluctant to let their sisters get married and are hostile to their brothers-in-law. It's just a bit strange, though, that Luo Huai isn't President Pei's biological sister."

"Miss Pei is Mr. Pei's younger sister. I wonder if Mr. Pei cried on the day Miss Pei got married, but Luo Huai did cry."

"It made the wedding shoes squeeze her until she cried." Luo Yunshang's lips were very pale, and her smile was delicate and gentle, with a hint of anger.

Pei Yuanzhou was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"President Pei doesn't know? Luo Huai's wedding shoes were much too small, and her wedding dress was much too big. The makeup artist was just an assistant, and in the end, Shuangshuang did Luo Huai's makeup." Luo Yunshang still smiled. "I don't know what this means. They want Luo Huai to marry in her place, but they're also making things difficult for her."

"He puts on the persona of a gentleman, but does the deeds of a petty person."

Pei Yuanzhou explained, "I guess the people below are just paying lip service. Yunshang, you've misunderstood. I would never treat Xiaohuai like that."

"If the Pei family doesn't give the order, would the people below dare to do this?" Luo Yunshang asked somewhat aggressively.

Pei Yuanzhou had his own suspicions.

"Do you think Youyou did it on purpose?"

"President Pei knew all along that Miss Pei had been targeting Luo Huai."

“Evidence.” Pei Yuanzhou’s face turned cold. “Youyou promised she wouldn’t make a fuss about this.”

Just then, Luo Huai and the others came out.

He asked, "Xiao Huai, even you think it's Youyou?"
