Chapter 83 - nostalgia
83
This unpleasant dinner was eaten until half past nine o’clock in the evening.
The reason, of course, was not because they had a good relationship.
Ye Liuying came here after work, and the start was a little later than the normal dinner.
Pei Xuening’s Hong Kong-style restaurant has an excellent environment, and there is an elegant taste everywhere.
On the eight-person round table, Pei Xuening and Ye Liuying sat together, only staying far away from Zhong Ji.
Ye Liuying saw the real person Zhong Ji for the first time.
Maybe she didn’t have a good impression of him earlier, and she didn’t have any good impression after seeing the real person.
Although she inherited Zhong Ji’s good genes, in many cases, blood relationship really doesn’t mean anything.
Seeing the real person Zhong Ji in the restaurant environment of the three of them, Ye Liuying couldn’t have any good impression of him.
Although she inherited each other’s good genes, sometimes blood relationship really doesn’t mean anything.
What surprised Ye Liuying the most at the dinner table was Pei Xuening.
Her mother looked like a weak and kind character, but she showed a surprisingly firm attitude towards Zhong Ji.
Ye Liuying breathed a sigh of relief.
Her personality is really more like her mother.
Slim on the outside, tough on the inside.
But Ye Liuying really felt sorry for Pei Xuening.
It’s not hard for her to imagine how much grievance her mother has suffered during the fourteen years of their separation.
Just for this, she wouldn’t want to get close to Zhong Ji.
“Mom, let’s go.” Ye Liuying has no appetite. If it wasn’t for Pei Xuening serving her dishes several times, she really didn’t have the desire to eat.
In fact, she was not the only one who didn’t move the dishes on the table until the end.
Ye Liuying proposed to leave, and Zhong Ji naturally proposed to send them off.
Ye Liuying and Pei Xuening didn’t agree, they walked out hand in hand, as if they didn’t see Zhong Ji.
“Xue Ning…” Zhong Ji insisted, and followed them to the parking lot.
Pei Xuening didn’t respond, and Ye Liuying patted her hand for comfort.
“Mr. Zhong.” Ye Liuying looked back at Zhong Ji in the dark, “Mom has made it very clear. You might as well deal with Pei Xueqing and Zhong Shen first, and then come back to show your hospitality.”
What she said was not pleasant, but her tone was very light, and her expression showed no joy or anger.
Zhong Ji felt very uncomfortable.
“Dense.” His eyes moved between Ye Liuying and Pei Xuening, “I am your biological father after all.”
Zhong Ji is not a person with no sense of responsibility, and his love for Pei Xuening is not fake.
It’s just that he has too many things in his heart, and they can’t be ranked first.
Men are inherently less affectionate than women.
Zhong Ji appeared affectionate, but in reality he was very cold.
Otherwise, Pei Xueqing would not have a chance.
There is no shortage of women around him, but he doesn’t know if it’s a show or something else.
Pei Xueqing couldn’t see through it, she thought she was different from the women outside and wanted to occupy his heart.
At this point, Pei Xuening looked very open.
Or he had already lost his heart to Zhong Ji.
Ye Liuying didn’t know, but she never thought of giving Zhong Ji a chance.
They only need to maintain the obvious father-daughter relationship.
“Zhong Shen is also your biological daughter.” Ye Liuying smiled at him after listening to Zhong Ji’s words.
She looks good, combines the advantages of Zhong Ji and Pei Xuening, and is a model of blue and blue.
Speaking of which, Zhong Shen is still two points like her, but far less than her.
fantastic.
When Zhong Ji saw Ye Liuying’s first glance, he was able to confirm that she was his daughter.
This is an absolutely impossible situation for those who came to the door to recognize their relatives before.
It’s a pity that Ye Liuying has a cold attitude towards him.
Zhong Ji’s domineering in his bones made him unbearable to be treated like this, but he couldn’t lose his temper at her.
He frowned, watching Ye Liuying and Pei Xuening get into the car hand in hand, the emotions surging in his heart couldn’t even understand him.
Still **** at her.
The one who came to pick them up was Uncle Chen, the driver of the Zhong family.
Uncle Chen was brought by Pei Xuening from her mother’s family. She has been with Pei Xuening all these years, and has little contact with Zhong Ji.
Pei Xuening trusted him.
The black Bentley drove smoothly towards Ye Liuying’s residence.
The street lights outside the window flashed on Pei Xuening’s face from time to time, embellishing her beauty.
Pei Xuening didn’t give Zhong Ji much attention this night.
But that doesn’t mean he has no influence on her at all.
The relationship between husband and wife is the most complicated in the world, especially for a large family like them.
No matter how disgusted Pei Xuening was to Zhong Ji, he had to consider external factors.
When her daughter was just lost, her mind was not on Zhong Ji, and she didn’t realize that he and her own sister were on the same bed.
It was not until Pei Xueqing was pregnant that she discovered the clue.
The successive blows were enough to make Pei Xuening collapse, but she persevered and woke up a lot.
Pei Xueqing is a little clever, but she is a fan of the authorities, and she is stupid even if she is stupid.
Not to mention that Zhong Ji has some sincere feelings for her.
How could Zhong Ji, such a shameful person, let himself bear the reputation of being a high-ranking sister-in-law.
What’s more, Pei Xueqing has done such a thing, and she has no chance at all when the matter is exposed.
Pei Xuening knew very well that with Zhong Ji’s character, she would not simply let her go.
As for how Zhong Ji will repair his relationship with Nong Nong.
Pei Xuening will not interfere, but he is not optimistic about him.
After all, she didn’t believe Zhong Ji.
“Mom.” Ye Liuying took Pei Xuening’s hand on her lap and comforted softly, “Don’t be sad.”
Pei Xuening shook his head, and the empty hand naturally covered Ye Liuying’s hand.
The vacant part of her heart was finally filled.
“After a while, my mother will divorce him.” Pei Xuening felt that he had courage again.
“Okay.” Ye Liuying should be very happy.
Her mother is in her early 40s, and looking at her appearance, she is at least five or six years younger.
Maybe you can have a new life away from the scumbag.
Ye Liuying didn’t feel anything when she didn’t enjoy mother’s love, and now she hopes they can live well.
That night, Pei Xuening stayed in Ye Liuying’s room as she said.
Ye Liuying didn’t pay much attention to Shen Xingzhou. Taking advantage of Pei Xuening’s time to take a bath, she went to the terrace and called him.
Shen Xingzhou received it almost in seconds.
He just sold miserably and said that he is still in the company and is not biasing her, but now he is on his way home.
“You finally remembered me.” Shen Xingzhou’s complaining voice reached Ye Liuying’s ear through the receiver.
The surroundings were very quiet, and she seemed to hear his subtle breathing.
“Yeah.” Ye Liuying snorted softly.
Shen Xingzhou listened to itching in his heart, and he sighed and asked her, “Are you in a bad mood when you see Zhong Ji?”
It was a matter of time before she and Zhong Ji met.
Based on what Shen Xingzhou knew about her, her impression of Zhong Ji was not that much better, and seeing it only made her sad.
“…Actually, it’s fine.”
There was no light in the dark night, Ye Liuying looked up and felt that her heart was so quiet and gloomy.
But when she listened to Shen Xingzhou’s voice, she had a different mood.
“Mom wants to divorce him.” Ye Liuying said coldly.
“It’s time to leave.” For Ye Liuying’s sake, Shen Xingzhou specially checked Zha Zhongji.
Zhong Ji and Pei Xueqing were kept secret by him.
Zhong Shen followed Pei Xueqing’s surname before he became an adult, and he had very little contact with Zhong Ji on the bright side.
It can be seen that he does not have deep feelings for Pei Xueqing, and Pei Xueqing had an accidental miscarriage two years ago.
According to Pei Xueqing’s morbid feelings for Zhong Ji, it may be that Zhong Ji did something to save her child.
In short, Zhong Ji is not a good match.
“They…should have fallen in love with each other before, right?” Ye Liuying almost murmured.
Shen Xingzhou’s forehead jumped, and he easily guessed what she was thinking about.
“What?” He raised his eyebrows pretending to be relaxed and teased, “You don’t have confidence in me?”
“I’m not implying you.” Ye Liuying pouted.
She was influenced by Shen Xingzhou, her heart skipped a beat.
“Well, you didn’t.” Shen Xingzhou responded cooperatively, “I’m afraid you’ll be halfhearted about me.”
“…When did I have an interest in you?” Ye Liuying said stubbornly, but the corners of her raised lips betrayed her.
She found it herself, even if Shen Xingzhou couldn’t see it, she covered her mouth reflexively.
“Maybe in my dream.”
Shen Xingzhou gave a low laugh, his vibrato was numb, “Look, I’m thinking of you in my dreams.”
“Smooth tongue.” Ye Liuying’s face was hot, but the night wind blowing in front of her couldn’t ease the restlessness in her heart.
Maybe he also drugged her.
Otherwise, how could she be taken away by him unconsciously.
She likes him.
Not in his dream.
“It’s from the bottom of my heart.” Shen Xingzhou put away his smile and said word by word in her ear.
Ye Liuying ignored him.
The night in front of her was really nothing to watch, so she asked him casually, “Can you see the stars there?”
“My mind is all about you.”
Shen Xingzhou glanced at the night outside the window, and answered in a serious manner, “I can’t see anyone else, and I can’t see the stars.”
“…” Ye Liuying was blocked by him and was speechless.
But he didn’t intend to listen to her reply, and immediately asked, “Are you outside? Are you wearing too much clothes? Is it cold?”
“On the terrace.” Ye Liuying felt his concern and looked down at the cashmere coat on her body, “It’s not cold.”
“You always say that.”
Shen Xingzhou obviously didn’t believe her, “Go back to your room, darling.”
Before Ye Liuying could answer, she heard Pei Xuening calling her in the room, “Aying—”
She didn’t know why she was a little flustered, and she was about to hang up unconsciously, “Mom called me, I’ll hang up first.”
Without waiting for Shen Xingzhou to reply, Ye Liuying simply pressed the end button.
It feels like a high school student whose puppy love was discovered by his parents.
So that when Ye Liuying turned around and saw Pei Xuening, her heart beat faster, “Mom…”
“Why don’t you call inside? It’s cold outside.” Pei Xuening showed no abnormality on her face, and pulled Ye Liuying back into the warm room, “Look at your hands are cold.”
Just like another Shen Xingzhou.
Ye Liuying wanted to say that she felt hot when they talked about it, but her hands were cold.
“When you finish filming, your mother will take you to the hospital to check your health.” Pei Xuening said in broken thoughts, “Your health was not very good when you were young…”
Ye Liuying knew that she had to follow Pei Xuening at this time, so she did not refuse.
Who knew she was talking, and she turned to Shen Xingzhou, “Are you talking to Zhouzhou? He has bullied you a lot before, and you don’t hold any grudges. You follow him like a little tail. After tossing and turning, you are still so clingy to him.”
Ye Liuying: ? ? ?
Who sticks to whom?
