“You can leave first. I will meet my brother after a while.” Her brother must still be angry with her. She could not go and meet him. Even if they could not go for their honeymoon trip, they could have fun somewhere else. She would then meet her brother after he had calmed down.
“Miss, President Pei ordered me to bring you to him. Please don’t make it difficult for me.”
When he said it, she knew she could not avoid it anymore. She pouted and said, “Alright, let’s go.”
It was already in the afternoon when Lu Man woke up. Pei Xiuyuan was not by her side so she thought he must have gone to work so she washed up and went to the kitchen. She planned to make herself some noodles to satisfy her hunger.
When she got out of the room, she smelled food. Then, she saw Pei Xiuyuan setting the table.
“You are awake. I was just about to call you after getting everything done.” Thinking that she did not properly have a meal yesterday, she must be very hungry by now. So he wanted to wake her up and get her to eat something before letting her rest some more.
“You don’t have to go to work?”
“Today is a weekend.”
“Oh…” She had forgotten to keep up with the time.
“Come and eat.”
Lu Man did not hesitate. She sat down and ate as she was really hungry.
Pei Xiuyuan did not say anything. He kept her company and picked up some food for her occasionally.
The food tasted familiar. It must be ordered from the Chinese restaurant in front of the street.
After she was full and satisfied, Lu Man suddenly had a thought that nothing was more important than filling her stomach.
She stood up and started clearing the table.
“Someone will do this later.”
“Okay.” Lu Man sat down.
They suddenly felt awkward in each other’s presence.
“Yunxi is coming,” Pei Xiuyuan said.
“Why?”
“To apologise.”
“It is not necessary.” She would not forgive her.
“Manman…”
“Don’t think about making me forgive her. I cannot!” If it was not him getting there in time, unthinkable things would have happened to her. She just could not forgive Wang Yunxi.
“I am not asking you to forgive her. She should apologize to you after she had done such a terrible thing to you.” Even he could not forgive Yunxi, much less expecting Lu Man to do so.
“I do not need her apology.” What was the use of saying sorry now?
“She would be here any moment.” As Pei Xiuyuan said that, he got a call from PA Wang.
“President Pei, Miss Wang was here. Should she go up now?”
“Come up now.”
When Lu Man heard it, she immediately stood up and headed to the room.
As he was passing by Pei Xiuyuan, he pulled her into his arms.
“My silly wife, it is her in the wrong. Why should you avoid her?”
“I am not avoiding her. I just do not want to see her face!” She did not want to see her, especially now after all that had happened!
She had a strong feeling that she would have the urge to beat her up when she saw her!
“Although you cannot kill her, you can take it all out on her. I am giving you a chance to vent your feelings on her, why don’t you just meet her?”
“What do you mean?” Did he mean that he did not just ask Wang Yunxi to apologize, but to let her take it all out on her as well?
“You heard me.”
Lu Man cocked her eyebrows. “Isn’t she your sister?”
“And you are my wife.” He could not stand her being wronged.
“I can do anything as long as she will not die?”
“Yes.”
“Then I will take the offer!” She would be a fool if she did not take the chance!
Lu Man was a quick-witted person. She knew which position she should put herself in and what decision she should make.
When Wang Yunxi entered, she saw Lu Man sitting next to Pei Xiuyuan on the couch. They were wearing matching outfits and slippers.
Wang Yunxi was nervous now when she realised that they were living together.
Her brother was a conservative person. He had never had an intimate relationship with any woman. Now, what did it imply when he was wearing a matching sleepwear?
It implied the fact that they were married for real!
And he was quite satisfied with this woman!
Otherwise, he would not do such a cheesy thing like wearing matching sleepwear with her!
This was not good.
This was not good at all especially after what she had done to her yesterday!
Mu Yunhai was equally shocked when he saw this.
Wang Yunxi was just worrying about what her brother would do to her.
But Mu Yunhai felt like he was struck by lightning!
All this time, he thought Lu Man was his.
When he saw them sitting together on the couch, wearing matching clothes, and seeing the marks left on her skin, he knew what they had done without having to be told what had happened. He was dumbfounded. For real!
He thought he was dreaming. That it was just a nightmare, a nightmare that made him angry enough to kill people!
Pei Xiuyuan looked at Mu Yunhai and saw where his eyes were looking, his thin lips slightly curled upward. Nonchalantly, he turned and looked at Wang Yunxi.
Calmly he said, “Where are your greetings?”
“Brother,” Wang Yunxi greeted her brother.
Pei Xiuyuan did not say anything and looked at her.
Wang Yunxi unwillingly opened her mouth and said, “Sister-in-law.”
She was very angry after she greeted her!
The person whom she used to step on had become her sister-in-law. It was driving her crazy!
Lu Man ignored her. She looked at Pei Xiuyuan and asked, “Is she your biological sister?”
Pei Xiuyuan cocked his eyebrows.
“Of course I am! You are the one who is a fake!” Wang Yunxi refuted.
“Do you hate her then?” Lu Man refused to look at her.
“Don’t try to mess with our relationship! We are on good terms!” Wang Yunxi did not expect Lu Man to be so arrogant that she dared to damage their sibling relationship in front of her.
“Is there a good sister who would harm her brother’s wife? Your brother must not be important to you then,” Lu Man purposely said it out loud. She knew Pei Xiuyuan would still be able to get what she meant even if she used implicit words.
“Brother, I did it before I knew she was my sister-in-law!” Wang Yunxi hurriedly explained. Although her brother would not be stupid enough to not knowing Lu Man’s intention, he had always disliked it when she challenged his authority. If he was not angry with what happened yesterday, he would not have summoned her here. So she must give an explanation. Not that she was not giving face to her brother or that she did not care about him, but it was planned before Lu Man had become his wife!
“She was treating you like a three-year-old boy,” Lu Man said with a smile.
Her smile made Wang Yunxi want to slap her on her face.
“You bitc…” She swallowed her words before she could even say it when she saw her brother’s eyes.
“I am not lying to you, really. It was planned a long time ago and I had forgotten about it on the wedding day!” She had just forgotten about it. She was not disregarding her brother or not giving him face!
“Even if she was not your sister-in-law, you should not have done that to anyone. Have I brought you up to be like this?” Pei Xiuyuan’s face darkened. She had grown up so fast before he could even notice. She was once a lovely girl, but now she had turned into a lawless monster!
