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

Pei Yuanzhou asked sincerely: Xiao Huai, is it Youyou?

Pei's father expressed disbelief: "Luo Huai, was it really Youyou who did it?"

Pei's mother implied a threat: Luo Huai, you are a good child, you can't lie.

Pei Youyou smiled provocatively: "Is it me?" Luo Huai.

Luo Huai had heard these words countless times since she was a child. Even if Brother Yuanzhou sincerely wanted to help her, distant water couldn't quench a nearby fire.

She spent the most time with Pei Youyou, mostly at school.

Pei Youyou has many followers at school.

The most important survival rule when living under someone else's roof is to endure.

Luo Huai always answered "no" or "I don't know who it is."

But that's how she lived in the Pei family; she has already left the Pei family.

“Yes,” Luo Huai said. “The shoes are Pei Youyou’s size, but the wedding dress is neither my size nor Pei Youyou’s size. Brother Yuanzhou, you want proof, but we don’t have any. You asked me if I also think it’s her? Yes, that’s what I think.”

“You weren’t like this before.” Pei Yuanzhou looked at her. “You wouldn’t say such things without evidence.”

Luo Huai: "Brother Yuanzhou also talked about the past."

Pei Yuanzhou frowned.

Luo Yunshang smiled.

Xing Yanzhao handed her a glass of water, "To soothe your throat."

Luo Huai turned his head and called out, "Brother Zhao."

"Hmm, I do remember the last few times." Xing Yanzhao's eyes crinkled into a roguish smile.

After taking a sip of water, Luo Huai said, "I remember."

They just left Pei Yuanzhou standing there, ignoring him.

Pei Yuanzhou felt a tightness and pain in his chest. When he frowned, he noticed Xing Yanzhao glancing at him, and there was something fishy in his eyes.

Twenty minutes later, the sound of an ambulance drifted past the window.

Two minutes later, the doorbell rang at the Luo family's house.

Upon opening the door, one found Pei Yuanzhou's assistant and doctor. The doctor inquired about the location of the injured person.

The assistant approached Pei Yuanzhou anxiously, asking if he was alright. Then, turning to the doctor, he said, "Mr. Pei was kicked in the chest. We don't know if his ribs are broken or if there's any bruising. He needs to be examined!"

The three were stunned, but Xing Yanzhao, who stood at the back and was a head taller than everyone else, remained calm.

Pei Yuanzhou questioned his assistant, "What happened? How did you know?"

"Someone called Chairman Pei and Mrs. Pei and said they saw Xing..." The assistant glanced at Xing Yanzhao, then looked away and whispered, "Young Master Xing kicked you. Last time, Young Master Xing kicked President Xing so hard he ended up in the hospital. Chairman Pei and Mrs. Pei were worried. The entire Pei Corporation needs you. President Pei, you can't afford to have anything happen to you!"

Pei Yuanzhou was thus put into the ambulance.

Before leaving, he glared fiercely at Xing Yanzhao.

It must have been Xing Yanzhao who did this!

As they were going downstairs to get on the ambulance, they passed by the Luo couple, who were muttering to themselves whether someone in one of the households had fallen ill.

Upon returning home, Pei Yuanzhou was nowhere to be seen. Instead, the legendary young master of the Xing family appeared, smiling and addressing Luo Huai as Uncle Luo and Aunt Lin.

"Young Master Xing, please have a seat."

"I am a junior, Uncle Luo and Aunt Lin can just call me Yanzhao."

They weren't as rude as rumored.

On the contrary, it is closer to what Luo Huai said.

Professor Luo and Professor Lin still called him Young Master Xing, but their expressions became much more friendly. Since they didn't have time to cook lunch, they ordered a table of food from the hotel first, and they would eat what the hotel cooked in the evening.

Professor Lin: "As soon as my sister said you were coming, I thought about going to buy chicken and cabbage. Tonight we'll have your Uncle Luo's boiled cabbage soup."

Luo Huai's eyes brightened slightly, and he nodded twice, making an "uh-huh" sound.

Like a cat that has smelled fish.

In the afternoon, when the Luo couple went into the kitchen, Xing Yanzhao wanted to follow them in, but he had to be careful not to bump his head.

He was really tall and imposing.

The two sisters huddled together in the study.

Luo Yunshang really liked the gift Xing Yanzhao gave her: a book written by a history professor from B University, which was about the history of one of her favorite dynasties and wasn't yet available on the market.

It was exactly what she wanted.

Professor Luo and Professor Lin also liked the gift Xing Yanzhao gave them. They didn't like tea, bird's nest, or poetry, calligraphy, and painting. Instead, one liked Chinese herbal medicine and the other liked taking photos.

Therefore, among the gifts Xing Yanzhao gave were a thousand-year-old ginseng and a set of professional camera equipment.

It's a gift that touches the heart.

Xing Yanzhao himself didn't know what the gifts were. He hurriedly asked Kuangye to prepare some, thinking that if this gift wasn't good enough, he would send something else next time.

Surprisingly, I sent the right one.

Xing Yanzhao was helping out in the kitchen. Seeing his skillful movements, the Luo couple asked him about his past.

There are questions and answers.

I know he has a grandmother and a younger brother.

The three of them depend on each other for survival.

Professor Lin asked, "Did you meet before you got married?"

Xing Yanzhao nodded: "I've seen him several times, four times in one day. Three times were at the hospital, and once was outside."

Professor Lin smiled and said, "I just heard you talk about some things from the past. Your sister is right. Although you didn't grow up in a wealthy family, you are a filial and loyal person."

Xing Yanzhao was secretly delighted: "She really said that?"

"Would Aunt Lin lie to you?"

"Of course not." Xing Yanzhao's eyes crinkled with amusement. "Aunt Lin, when did Luo Huai say that?"

Professor Luo spoke up at the opportune moment: "A few days before your wedding."

"A few days before the wedding?" Xing Yanzhao looked surprised and doubtful. He clearly remembered that Luo Huai only learned his identity on the day of the wedding.

If you knew beforehand, why would you ask, "Please marry me"?

Judging from all indications, Luo Huai knew from the beginning that she was going to marry the real young master of the Xing family.

Professor Lin: "Yes, it's fate that brought you together."

Xing Yanzhao liked to hear this and immediately said, "It is indeed fate."

I thought we were destined to meet but not to be together, but it turns out we were destined to be together.

The hospital pharmacy employee reached out and received a beautiful and refined wife.

Xing Yanzhao recounted his past, and he also wanted to hear Luo Huai's story.

Especially regarding matters concerning the Pei family.

The smiles on the couple's faces gradually disappeared.

The Luo family originally intended to adopt Luo Huai, even though their conditions weren't as good as they are now, and they had a sickly daughter. By simultaneously increasing income and cutting expenses, they were able to raise Luo Huai well.

In the end, Luo Huai left with the Pei family. Little Luo Huai looked at them with eyes full of reluctance, yet her actions were so resolute.

They knew that someone must have said something.

The Pei family is wealthy and powerful, and they don't have complicated family relationships. They only have one son and one daughter, and they think that Luo Huai won't suffer if she goes there.

It wasn't until their daughter entered high school and heard from others that Luo Huai, an orphan living at the Pei family's house and eating and drinking for free, had suffered injustice in secret.

The news has even reached another school; the grievances are far more than just a little bit.

They secretly visited Luo Huai and found that he was well-fed and clothed, and was always chauffeured around, but Luo Huai was unhappy.

She still looks as well-behaved as she did when she was a child, with a smile on her face, a smile that doesn't show her teeth, and her eyebrows and eyes slightly curved.

But those eyes lacked sparkle; the liveliness of childhood was gone.

All that remains is gentleness and obedience.

The Pei family's business doesn't involve the technology sector, so they can't get in touch with them. Every time they go to the school gate, as soon as they see them, the people get into the Pei family's car.

“If Luo Huai comes up too slowly, Miss Pei will get angry and glare at her, calling her a turtle.” Professor Lin said, his nose tingling and his voice slightly hoarse. “We can only see Luo Huai from afar.”

It was because Luo Huai saw them in the car that he went back and discussed with Pei's parents about visiting them whenever he had time.

The Pei family said that we should focus on our studies and go during the holidays.

Throughout high school, she could only visit the Luo family during winter and summer vacations.

Come and go on the same day.

After starting university, she lived on campus and would occasionally visit the Luo family without anyone noticing.

"In the second semester of freshman year, Pei Yuanzhou..." Professor Lin's voice trailed off.
