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

Seeing Pei Youyou's pale face and incredulous look, Zhu Shuangshuang said in surprise, "You really didn't know? Changing your surname isn't something that can be done in a day or two. Did your husband keep it from you?"

She even clicked her tongue, looking at Pei Youyou with a pitiful yet disdainful gaze.

Pei Youyou instantly erupted, rushing forward to tear Zhu Shuangshuang's mouth apart and accuse her of talking nonsense.

Zhu Shuangshuang wasn't one to be trifled with either, and she rushed forward to fight, saying, "I've had my eye on you for a long time." This frightened Luo Huai, who hurriedly got out of the car and grabbed Zhu Shuangshuang.

Pei Youyou was also pulled back. When the dress she was wearing was pulled, her beautiful shoulders and back were accidentally exposed, and a large part of her arms were also exposed.

There were red marks on my wrists, as if I had been strangled by something, and there were also faint red spots on my back.

Huh? Zhu Shuangshuang's eyes widened as she tried to get a closer look, but the other person had already pulled their clothes up.

Xing Yanzhao also stood between the two, looking at them with a disdainful gaze.

Pei Youyou and the woman immediately cowered and timidly clung to each other.

Xing Yanzhao spoke up to remind him: "If you have the energy, go back and find out for yourself. Don't go around shouting for no reason."

The woman also said, "Youyou, why don't you go back and ask your husband?"

Pei Youyou immediately turned to her and warned, "Don't spread what happened today. If people find out, my brother won't let your family off the hook."

The woman nodded repeatedly, assuring everyone that she wouldn't tell anyone.

But this matter is of great importance; it's a major upheaval in the upper echelons of society. Even if she doesn't speak up, others will.

The two left.

Luo Huai also drove back, with Zhu Shuangshuang in the passenger seat.

Although it was a two-door, four-seater car, Xing Yanzhao, with his tall stature and long legs, felt a bit cramped inside, so he chose to drive his own car instead.

When we drove here, my wife was in the passenger seat, but when we drove back, someone else was in the passenger seat.

It's a bit sad.

After thinking about it, he decided to order another SUV for Luo Huai, so that he would at least have his own place.

Then they followed behind the white Continental in their car, one small and one large, one white and one black, speeding through the streets, somewhat resembling the two of them.

“Luo Huai.” Zhu Shuangshuang thought for a moment, then turned to the side and said, “Did you just see the marks on Pei Youyou’s wrist? And on her back, they’re quite faint.”

"I wasn't paying attention." Luo Huai was busy pulling her along, his mind wasn't on Pei Youyou at all. "What's wrong?"

"Has Pei Youyou been kidnapped recently?" Zhu Shuangshuang asked cautiously.

Luo Huai smiled and said, "No, who would dare to kidnap Miss Pei? She always has bodyguards around her when she goes out."

"If that's the case, then Pei Youyou and her husband are quite the ladies' man."

"what?"

Do you remember when I worked part-time as a translator for a sex toy company during my sophomore year of college?

Luo Huai nodded, looked straight ahead, and pricked up his ears.

"The mark on Pei Youyou's hand must be from playing bondage, and the red dot on her back, if I'm not mistaken, is from a low-temperature candle that wasn't wiped clean."

Luo Huai was completely confused: "Bound? Candles?"

“It’s one way of playing. Some people like this. I don’t know much about it, but it seems similar. However, Pei Youyou doesn’t seem to have a masochistic constitution. On the contrary, her husband is well-dressed. It’s normal for him to like sadism. He’s too repressed.” Zhu Shuangshuang looked down at the information. “I’ll send you a few translated articles with pictures.”

Luo Huai nodded, indicating that he would look into it later.

Zhu Shuangshuang didn't leave until after she finished eating at Luo Huai's house. Before leaving, she winked and said, "Take a look, maybe one day you and your older brother can use it? It's not the high-intensity kind, just a little bit, just a tiny bit, it'll really enhance the mood!"

Luo Huai said helplessly, "Remember to message me when you get to the dorm."

Zhu Shuangshuang gave an OK sign, thanked Grandma Kuang and Xing Yanzhao, and went down in the elevator.

Luo Huai stood at the door, waving goodbye.

"What does she want you to see?"

A deep voice suddenly came from above. Luo Huai turned around and almost bumped into his chest.

Xing Yanzhao asked again.

Luo Huai said, "An article she translated."

……

When Pei Youyou returned to the Xing family home, she saw the servants moving things around and her heart skipped a beat.

It can not be!

Are they moving out?

She walked over to Xing's mother, who was directing the servants, and affectionately linked arms with her, saying, "Mom, what are you doing?"

"It's almost Chinese New Year, so people are sending their pets to new care facilities or getting new ones." Xing's mother glanced at her, "Why is your hair such a mess?"

"It was the wind blowing it; the car window wasn't closed, and the wind was blowing it all over the place."

"Ah."

"Um, Mom, I wanted to ask something. I heard that Brother Zhengyu changed his surname back to Lin and was demoted." Pei Youyou smiled, "That's nonsense."

Xing's mother patted the back of her hand and said, "It's true, but no matter what, you will always be my son and daughter-in-law, and that won't change."

A bolt from the blue.

Pei Youyou stood there, frozen in place.

"How is this possible?" She let go of his hand and asked indignantly, "Why did you change your surname? And get demoted? Mom, don't you love Zheng Yu the most? What's going on? Why did you all keep this from me?!"

What Luo Huai said was actually true!

Zhengyu's surname is no longer Xing, he has changed it to Lin!

"What can I do about this? It's the decision of the old man and the old woman, and Zhengyu can only accept it." Xing's mother comforted her, "Don't worry, you'll still live here. Mom doesn't want you to move out. What does it matter if you have the surname Lin or not?"

Of course they're related!

People will laugh at her, saying she married down.

If someone calls her Mrs. Lin...

She's not Mrs. Lin yet; Zheng Yu has a biological father, mother, and a younger brother who's still in middle school.

Does she intend to acknowledge that poor couple as her in-laws?

Pei Youyou was on the verge of collapse.

Not wanting to lose her temper in front of her mother-in-law, she suppressed her anger and asked, "Mom, hasn't Zhengyu come back yet?"

"It seems there's a problem with a project at the company, and your dad hasn't come back yet."

"Are Dad and Zheng Yu still busy? But Xing Yanzhao, my eldest brother, already went with Luo Huai to pick up the car," Pei Youyou said. "If my eldest brother doesn't have to work, what is Zheng Yu busy with?"

"Can they be compared?" Xing's mother's expression changed slightly. "I know you two haven't been married long and are very attached to each other. If you don't mind, go to the company and wait for Zheng Yu. How can you say such things? Zheng Yu is capable. Even if he is demoted, he will work diligently. How can he be as irresponsible as Yan Zhao?"

Pei Youyou agreed.

But she was indeed anxious to meet and ask Brother Zhengyu why he had kept it a secret.

He nodded absentmindedly in agreement: "Yes, how can Brother Zhengyu and Big Brother be the same?"

"What's wrong with my brother?" Xing Yuru came downstairs, holding onto the stairs with one hand, and asked in confusion, "Mom, is it wrong for my brother to just leave work on time?"

Mrs. Xing frowned. The servants were still moving things, and her daughter was asking her directly, both times, which sounded like an interrogation. It was as if she didn't respect her.

After all, she was her own daughter, so she didn't get angry. Instead, she asked with a hint of annoyance, "Yu Rou, what's wrong with you lately? You're getting more and more rude."
