Chapter 20

The old man's mobile phone was on speakerphone, and Xi Zhaoyan's voice came from the other end: "Chen'er was very busy yesterday and is still asleep now. He will go over after he wakes up. I am a bit busy today, so I won't go over."

Yuan Shu said "hmm", hung up the phone and put it aside, and continued to go back to the field to pick vegetables.

The busy time always passed very quickly. Suddenly, a faint smell of meat blew in through the draft, and Pei Yue's stomach growled.

After she paused, Yuan Shu's loud voice came from downstairs: "Xiao Pei, come down for dinner!"

The shout was kind and discreet. Pei Yue couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, walked to the window and looked down.

Yuan Shu and the nanny Luo Sao were serving food from indoors to the small pavilion in the courtyard.

Yuan Shu put down the braised pork in her hand, raised her head and glanced towards her room. The two met their eyes. Pei Yue's ears were reddened by the old man's enthusiasm, but Yuan Shu smiled and waved to her. It looked so...

Too pampered.

Pei Yue was happy and sad.

Her grandma and grandma both love their grandson, and granddaughters like her have been unpopular since childhood.

Her relationship with her grandparents was very weak, which is why she was taken away by Ling Mei so easily.

Even in the past nine years, she has not contacted other relatives, and has never returned to her hometown of Ancheng.

After she went down, she saw Yuan Shu carrying the rice cooker outside. She hurried over and took it, "Grandma, I'll carry it!"

Then Mrs. Luo came out with juice in a glass bottle, and Pei Yue went to help again.

Her sensible look made the kind smile on Yuan Shu's face never fade away.

The two-way initiative was always pleasant, and afterwards they sat down to listen to the chirping of cicadas and birds, eat delicious food, and chat.

Yuan Shu asked Pei Yue if she liked it here, if today's meal was to her taste, and what she usually likes to eat.

Pei Yue was extremely embarrassed to face such a gentle and considerate elder. She revealed her heart and said sincerely, "Grandma, everything is good here. It's my fault. I came here in a hurry and didn't bring you any greeting gifts."

."

This made Yuan Shu laugh, "There are not many people living in such a big house, so your coming to live here is the best gift!"

Pei Yue fully understood the meaning of "having an old man in a family is like having a treasure." The environment here and the feeling of contentment in the old man made her temporarily forget the heavy emotions brought to her by the Xi family.

After dinner, the old man wanted to take a lunch break, and Pei Yue also went back to her room.

At this time, she wanted to contact Xi Yanchen and thank him for his arrangement, but thinking of his kitten, she flinched.

She really didn't expect that the old man would be so cruel.

But looking at it from another angle, the old man was willing to sacrifice his own life to cut off her relationship with Xi Yanchen, which just shows how unattainable he is now.

Someone like her...would lower his status.

Before the age of fifteen, Pei Yue, as a daughter of a wealthy family, did not understand what inferiority complex was. She was confident and calm, and refused to admit defeat just to get better.

Later, when she arrived at the Xi family, she had low self-esteem to the core after meeting the top wealthy families. Even all her hard work in the past nine years was actually her former self fighting against her later low self-esteem.

But now, when she was trapped in guilt, low self-esteem, and the painful entanglement of wanting to contact Xi Yanchen that could not be resolved, she sent many messages to her best friend Ji Xue to seek enlightenment.

Half an hour later, Ji Xue called her via video call.

After she picked up the phone, a picture of an extremely cold and charming woman with smoky makeup appeared over there.

But the next second, the cold and charming woman showed a cute and excited face: "Wow wow wow, it's so exciting, Yueyue, you actually slept with Xi Yanchen. He is Xi Xiao's seventh uncle, right?"

Her voice is also sweet and sweet, which doesn't match her cool appearance.

However, Pei Yue was used to Ji Xue like this. She said, "To be precise, he slept with me."

Immediately afterwards, Ji Xue let out a screech like a groundhog, which startled Pei Yue. She slid her hand to shrink the video interface, revealing the note she gave Ji Xue - Foolish Beauty.
