Li Xiwu still had her arms crossed over her chest and said in a lukewarm tone, “Why are you calling me that?”

Pei Jingzhou never defended himself. “I was wrong.”

The speed at which he admitted his mistake stunned Dao Xi, who was standing behind Li Xiwu. After all, the new son-in-law in his eyes was an influential figure who shocked the business world. However, he did not expect the new son-in-law to De completely ditrerent trom tne outside world m rront or young Miss.

Li Xiwu was not angry at first, but when Pei Jingzhou admitted his mistake, she immediately felt that she was in the right. Like an angry wife, she pointed at the path Pei Jingzhou had just taken. “I watched you walk from there to here and then there without looking at me the entire time.”

The explanation was on Pei Jingzhou’s lips, but he did not say it.

Li Xiwu walked up to Pei Jingzhou. There was only half a step between them. He lowered his head and she looked up. “You can ignore me when I’m standing here. Does this mean that you don’t want to see me at all?”

Pei Jingzhou grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms. “No.”

Li Xiwu struggled a few times. His arms were like iron. Seeing that she couldn’t struggle, she raised her hand and punched his chest lightly. “Is it because I’m so beautiful that you can’t bear to look?”

Pei Jingzhou smiled and replied in a low voice, “Yes, I don’t dare to look.”

Li Xiwu said, “Cut it out. You just answered whatever I said. You didn’t sincerely admit your mistake.”

At this moment, Li Xiwu was only focused on being angry and did not notice the surprise in Pei Jingzhou’s eyes. He was stunned by her outfit. She had always liked to dress simply. Today’s outfit was something he had never seen on Li Xiwu before. Apart from this, it added to her charm.

She was so beautiful that he was speechless and dazed.

His dark and deep eyes were almost locked on her. Compared to his earlier neglect, it was more polite. He never looked at other women much, but if she was Li Xiwu, it would almost instantly steal his soul.

This was Li Xiwu’s ability to keep a low profile and take Pei Jingzhou’s life at any time.

Li Xiwu saw that Pei Jingzhou’s eyes were getting darker and darker. She raised her hand and patted his cheek. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Pei Jingzhou said, “My wife is so beautiful.”

Even in a fit of anger, what woman didn’t like to hear her husband praise her? She suppressed a smile and forgot for a moment that Dao Xi was standing behind her. She poked his chest with her fair finger. “I’ll punish you for a month of…

Pei Jingzhou seemed to know what she was going to say and interrupted her. “Don’t even think about it.”

Dao Xi, who was standing at the back, wished he could become invisible or a crack in the ground. He wanted to crawl into it and hide.

Young Miss, the new son-in-law. This was daylight!

“Cousin! I’m back.” MO Yan, who had successfully picked a large cluster of wax plums, was running over in a gauze hat.

Li Xiwu quickly pried Pei Jingzhou’s hand away and turned around to ask worriedly, “Did the bee sting you?”

MO Yan panted and said, “How can that be? I put on the veil hat immediately when I found it. I took it off…” Halfway through her sentence, MO Yan saw the man behind Li Xiwu and stopped.

Li Xiwu turned around and introduced, “He’s Pei Jingzhou.”

Pei Jingzhou added, “Can’t you add the words, your husband?”

Li Xiwu said, “Shut up.”

Pei Jingzhou laughed. “Alright, let’s not talk about it.”

MO Yan was stunned.

Of course, she had seen Pei Jingzhou before and knew how legendary Pei Jingzhou was in the business world. She had thought that this rumored cousin-in-law and Cousin should be arrogant outside. She did not expect him to be so henpecked.

MO Yan subconsciously laughed out loud.

Li Xiwu asked, “What did you think of?”

MO Yan looked at Pei Jingzhou and then at Li Xiwu. She covered her mouth and said, “I’m just… surprised.”

Li Xiwu could roughly guess what accident she was referring to from MO Yan’s expression, so she did not ask further.

MO Yan gave one of the clusters of wax plums in her hand to Li Xiwu. She didn’t give her one basket because it didn’t fit her. It was too abrupt. She would look better with one.

In order not to be an eyesore, MO Yan took the initiative to bring Youyou and Yaoyao to Guan Suling. The advantage of getting familiar with the two little guys was that MO Yan could easily call them away without coaxing them. Dao Xi followed suit and left.

This time, there were only Li Xiwu and Pei Jingzhou in the backyard.

Li Xiwu handed the wax plum to Pei Jingzhou. “Take it.” Pei Jingzhou obediently took it. Li Xiwu asked, “When did you come?”

Pei Jingzhou held the wax plum in one hand and held her hand with the other.

“I sent you a WeChat message.”

Li Xiwu looked down at herself and then looked up at Pei Jingzhou. “I don’t have any pockets on me. I didn’t bring my cell phone over.”

“Figured that since you didn’t reply to my WeChat,” he said.

Li Xiwu smiled and casually chatted with Pei Jingzhou about her daily life. “Boyuan called me today and asked me why I didn’t send Youyou to kindergarten. I said that I would take two days off from the teacher. It’s mainly because Youyou and Yaoyao have just arrived. Youyou has good adaptability.

Yaoyao can’t, so he has to adapt. If Youyou is always here during the day,

Yaoyao will be in a better state.”

Pei Jingzhou nodded and said, “Let’s postpone the psychological treatment for two days. Observe the changes in Yaoyao first.”

Li Xiwu stopped short. Pei Jingzhou stopped and looked at her sideways. Li Xiwu asked, “Is there any news about Pei Jiao?” She had wanted to ask just now and had been thinking about it for a long time. She casually chatted about her daily life before asking, afraid that there was still no news. After asking, Li Xiwu did not see any dejection on Pei Jingzhou’s face. She asked, “Is there news.

Pei Jingzhou nodded. “Yes.”

When Li Xiwu heard Pei Jingzhou say that there was, she immediately asked,

“Have you brought her back?”

Pei Jingzhou’s voice deepened. “No, I’m just sure she’s safe, but I can’t confirm her location.”

Li Xiwu asked, “What do you mean?”

The general situation was that last night, Pei Qingji received a message on his phone. It was a string of Morse code. Pei Qingji immediately found someone to decipher the contents of the Morse code.

The final translation of the Morse code read: Safe, Makka Baka.

When Li Xiwu heard Pei Jingzhou say that he had translated the Morse code, she couldn’t help but laugh. “So Pei Jiao has been in a safe place. She just hasn’t returned.”

Pei Jingzhou nodded. “She might be trapped in a place, but this place is not dangerous to her.”

Li Xiwu agreed. Otherwise, the Morse code Pei Jiao had sent must have been for help. She thought of something and immediately asked, “Since it was a message in Morse code, did you locate that number?”

Pei Jingzhou said, “I did, but it was covered. It shouldn’t have been covered by Pei Jiao. The phone she used had covered the location information.”

Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “As long as she’s safe.”

With that, she was pulled into Pei Jingzhou’s arms. Pei Jingzhou’s low voice sounded in her ear.. “Are you planning to stay here for a few days?”
