Chapter 224 The Princess and the Pea 27
Chapter 224 The Princess and the Pea 27
A simple sentence suddenly broke the stiff atmosphere.
Wen Qi Yu looked up and met the gaze of Wen Shixu, who had an elegant smile. Next to him were Pei's parents who looked anxious, and Pei Huai, who had a cold and impatient expression.
Seeing this, Wen Qi Yu finally remembered why he always felt familiar with Qing Wan.
It turned out to be the youngest daughter of the Pei family.
It’s just that the little girl in my memory seems very different from now. However, the last time I met her was several years ago, and we have never had any interaction, except for a glance from a distance.
Spoiled and stupid, this was the only impression Wen Qiyu had of Pei Nian before.
But now...
Swallowing calmly, Wen Qi Yu smiled politely at Wen Shixu.
"I wanted to discuss something with you, but I got bored waiting in the living room, so I came to the garden without permission."
"is it?"
Wen Shixu smiled and said in a joking tone: "You have to be careful. Your aunt loves those peonies very much. If a petal falls off, she will come to me and cry."
He sighed, but the smile in his eyes was full of love and pampering, and he was obviously enjoying it.
Seeing this, An Bai, who was originally very anxious, finally felt relieved. At least Pei Nian did not suffer any injustice here.
But after the worries are put to rest, there is always some disappointment and sadness.
She has spoiled this child for so many years, giving her more love and care than her own children, for fear that she would suffer any grievances.
But after knowing the truth about her life, she was still unwilling to believe them. She chose to escape and even willfully cut off all contact, leaving them to worry.
For a long time, the Pei family was in chaos because of her affairs.
An Bai's eyes were red, and she couldn't tell whether she was more disappointed or worried. She just felt very tired. Taking care of Pei Nian over the past few years really took up too much of her energy.
Sitting in the luxurious and quiet living room, except for Pei Huai, who was very impatient because he was forced to apologize, everyone else stared at the door.
Even Wen Qi Yu, who had forced himself to follow in, was the same. His mind was completely focused on that place, so much so that he didn't even notice the marks on Pei Hui's neck that had not yet faded.
After a long time, Wen Shixu finally brought Qing Wan downstairs.
However, the grumpy little fool seemed very unhappy. Wen Shixu held him in his arms like a child, with his little feet in white socks dangling on both sides of his strong waist, and his face buried in his arms like an ostrich.
Pei Huai, who had been very impatient, inadvertently caught a glimpse of her figure. His heart trembled inexplicably, and the peony scent at the tip of his nose was mixed with an alluring sweetness.
The anxious breath suddenly suffocated in his chest, and the noisy heartbeat made Pei Hui's eardrums buzz.
Everyone's eyes were focused on that delicate figure, and no one noticed his abnormality.
"Nian Nian?"
An Bai was the first to react. The moment he saw his daughter, the tears in his eyes suddenly fell out. He was so filled with pity that he no longer remembered his previous disappointment and complaints.
Qing Wan trembled slightly when she heard her crying voice. She looked up quietly. Her red eyes showed that she had been crying. She was cautious, fearful and terrified.
Looks like a kitten abandoned by its owner.
An Bai and Pei Qiuchi's hearts melted. As soon as Wen Shixu brought someone to sit down, they couldn't wait to pull the person into their arms.
"Baby, your mother must be worried to death. How could you do this? You ran away from home without saying a word. Do you know how worried Dad and I are?"
Qing Wan lowered her head in guilt at the crying voice. Tears began to fall from her eyes. She curled up in An Bai's arms and didn't even dare to cry out loud.
Pei Qiuchi also felt pity for her. He reached out and rubbed her hair. With red eyes, he said solemnly: "Niannian, no matter what, you are a child of our Pei family."
After hearing this, Qing Wan looked up hesitantly, her pretty face full of tear marks and her wet eyes filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
"Really……"
"Of course!"
An Bai's heart softened when he saw her eyes. He wanted to hug his baby and kiss her a few times. He coaxed her lovingly, "Baby will always be the little princess of the Pei family. No one can bully her."
Qing Wan sobbed a little, looking pitiful, but in the next second she suddenly pointed at Pei Huai who had been silent.
"Can't he bully me?"
An Bai glanced at Pei Huai who was staring at Qing Wan, and felt something strange in his heart.
But since her little princess was crying like this, she didn't think much about it and said directly: "Of course, baby, brother already knows he was wrong, and he came here specially to apologize to you."
Pei Qiuchi took the opportunity to give Pei Huai a look, asking him to show some expression. Even if he hated his sister, he should at least put in some superficial effort to coax her back first.
But he didn't expect that his second son, who was always unruly and cold, was unusually dazed this time.
When Qing Wan pointed at him, his Adam's apple rolled as if he was a little nervous. He quickly looked away and said in a hoarse voice: "...I'm sorry."
As these words came out, overwhelming pink love rushed towards Qing Wan like a tide.
The quality is in line with the succubus's discerning taste.
So she maintained her outward persona while quietly devouring the three strands of love that gathered at her fingertips.
Wen Shixu smiled faintly and lifted his eyelids to take a look. He used the excuse of drinking tea to hide the poisonous jealousy surging in his eyes.
What a greedy bad baby.
Qing Wan knew nothing about this. She looked incredulous when she saw the little cat crying after her second brother, who had always ignored and hated her, surrendered in front of her for the first time.
The tip of her nose was red. She suddenly leaned forward and asked in surprise with a thick crying voice: "What did you just say?"
As she got closer, the rich peony fragrance on her body became stronger, but it didn't make people feel sick. Instead, it penetrated into the skin and flesh, covering the bones and blood, easily making people sink into it.
Pei Hui restrained his breathing, retreated somewhat embarrassedly, and stopped talking.
It’s not that he didn’t want to speak, but he was afraid that once he opened his mouth, his hoarse and dry voice would scare the timid idiot in front of him.
But Qing Wan seemed to like to push the issue further, and deliberately dragged out her tone, humming in a voice that was extremely sweet and soft: "Why didn't I hear it? Who said sorry just now? Huh?"
As she spoke, she deliberately tilted her head and stretched out her ears. Her smug look was so adorable that one could not help wanting to hold her in their arms and kiss her until she cried.
Pei Huai's eyes were dark and deep. He swallowed hard, his throat was so dry that it was almost on fire, and suddenly stood up and walked out with big strides.
