"No." Pei Yiting narrowed his eyes and denied it lightly, his expression so calm and collected.
His reaction didn't look like he was lying.
Could it be that she is suspicious?
"What's the matter? What's on your mind these two days?" Pei Yiting gently held her shoulder with his hand, staring at Xia Yueqing.
Just like she doubted Pei Yiting, at this moment he also doubted whether Xia Yueqing knew something.
But that untouchable truth, is the last line of defense.
Once pierced, the result is endless destruction.
No one can afford to bet on this result, and no one dares to bet.
"No." Xia Yueqing squeezed out a smile, hiding the complexity on her face.
"Don't hold back if you have something on your mind, you must tell me."
"Okay, it's getting late, I want to sleep, you should go wash up too, smoking is bad for your health, don't smoke too much." Xia Yueqing sighed softly, persuaded him, turned and walked to the bed.
Pei Yiting's eyes followed her figure to the bed, and his brows were deeply frowned.
Maybe it's just a coincidence.
The only other person who knew about this, besides herself, was Zhen Shuangyan.
She has passed away, it is impossible for Xia Yueqing to know...
Pei Yiting convinced himself so.
However, that night, Xia Yueqing suffered from insomnia all night, and couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
"What's wrong? Did you sleep too much during the day?"
She tossed and turned when she couldn't fall asleep, and Pei Yiting slept next to her, so she could naturally sense Xia Yueqing's restlessness.
She opened her eyes, not knowing what time it was, but it was definitely not early.
"Maybe." In the darkness, the voice was amplified infinitely.
The reason why she couldn't sleep was because she really slept too much during the day on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was because she was thinking about what to do next.
After watching Zhen Shuangyan's journey in her heart for more than twenty years, apart from knowing her own background and her birth mother is Zhen Shuangyan, she also knows that there is a blood relationship between herself and Pei Yiting.
Xia Yueqing's focus at the moment is, what should she do next?
Pretend that you don't know anything, continue to live with Pei Yiting, or... separate.
Whether it's the former or the latter, Xia Yueqing is destined to struggle and suffer.
The death of Zhen Shuangyan was already a hurdle in her heart, and after knowing the truth, Xia Yueqing was even more unable to live with Pei Yiting with peace of mind and as if nothing had happened.
But how could she, who had already developed a deep relationship with Pei Yiting, be able to break away from this marriage so easily?
She never knew that making a choice would be so difficult.
"From now on, just take a lunch break during the day. Don't sleep all day, or it will affect your sleep at night." While speaking, Pei Yiting stretched out a hand and patted her shoulder lightly.
Gentle movements, with deep comfort.
She had something in her heart, and it had clearly shown on her face. It would be strange if he couldn't see it.
Xia Yueqing covered her face with her hands and hummed lightly.
Having said that, but the insomnia is still insomnia.
"Go to the guest room and sleep. You have to go to work tomorrow, or you won't be able to sleep all night." Knowing that Pei Yiting must not have fallen asleep, Xia Yueqing said to him directly.
"Sleeping in the guest room?" Is this going to sleep in a separate room with him?
Pei Yiting's face was slightly sullen, and his tone was tinged with displeasure.
"right."
"No, sleeping in the guest room is no different from sleeping here. I can't sleep without you."
Across the darkness, Xia Yueqing looked at him in astonishment, but in the end, she could only calm down slowly.
Early the next morning, my sister-in-law Xia Yining came uninvited.
This was the first time she had been here after they had been married for so long.
"Brother-in-law, early..." For some reason, Xia Yining felt that Pei Yiting's face was darker than before, and it swept over like a laser, making her scalp numb.
Pei Yiting narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked softly, "Are you here to accompany your cousin?"
"Ah? Yes." Xia Yining nodded quickly, lest he ask more questions.
Usually, the two of them can't fight each other, and the well water does not violate the river water.
Because she was thinking about Xia Yueqing, she made a special trip to their house, and met Pei Yiting unexpectedly.
"Well, I have a heart, but she is still sleeping now."
Xia Yining was taken aback.
"Sleep?" Her expression was a little weird. At this moment, Xia Yueqing could still fall asleep. Does that mean she was worrying too much?
"You wait here, I guess you're about to wake up." Pei Yiting slowly picked up his coffee and took a sip.
Xia Yining originally wanted to say that he should go back first, but Pei Yiting snatched him first, so it's not easy to talk about it.
"OK then."
While nodding, he wondered if it's time for Pei Yiting, the big Buddha, to go to work?
It's past eight o'clock, even the boss can't be so willful, right?
However, Pei Yiting did not hear Xia Yining's inner prayer.
"It's a coincidence that you came today. I just want to ask you something." Pei Yiting's voice sounded calmly from the side.
Xia Yining's whole body was tense, and she gave a stiff smile: "Brother-in-law, what's the matter?"
The man looked at the closed door with deep eyes, and his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, "You know, what happened to your cousin the night before yesterday?"
As soon as this question was uttered, Xia Yining's heart skipped a beat, and a strange look appeared on his face. "My cousin, isn't she all right? What happened?"
Xia Yining pretended to be so stupid that she didn't know.
Although I don't know if I'm pretending to be good or not, I can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
This matter is no small matter, Xia Yueqing didn't say anything, she didn't have the guts to confess to Pei Yiting.
"Really?" Pei Yiting slightly accentuated his tone, with a sense of oppression in his deep eyes.
That majestic appearance almost scared Xia Yining to blurt out the truth.
"Really, no." She took a breath, and dodged back in fear.
Pei Yiting's complexion did not improve, and the probing eyes seemed to still doubt the truth of what she said.
"Um."
Just when he frightened Xia Yining to a great extent, Pei Yiting dismissed all this with an indifferent yes.
Xia Yining "..."
"Your cousin is in a bad mood during this time, if you are free, you can come and spend more time with her."
Just when she thought the conversation was about to end, Pei Yiting suddenly said another word.
Xia Yining opened his mouth and nodded blankly. "well……"
Immediately, Pei Yiting didn't care about her reaction, picked up the briefcase and walked out.
In the room, when Pei Yiting got up, Xia Yueqing woke up.
But never got up.
Now, she was sure that Pei Yiting had gone out before she got up.
Unexpectedly, there was an extra Xia Yining in the living room, eating an apple.
"Finally you got up? I'm hungry, I eat an apple from you, don't you mind?" Xia Yining raised her head and asked.
Xia Yueqing came over and sat down beside her. "When did you come? Why didn't you call me?"
