Ning Xia knew the truth that an arm's length could not be twisted, so she tactfully arranged her clothes and daily necessities.

At this moment, Pei Yi Chen was deeply engrossed with what it meant to be a gentleman. He quietly waited at the side.

Ning Xia felt somewhat embarrassed by his gaze, "Mister Pei, is there anything else?" You're disturbing me here to sort out my clothes. "

Pei Yichen raised an eyebrow and said, "As your husband, I have a duty to help you tidy up your room."

The heck!

Ning Xia couldn't help but ridicule him in her heart when she saw his boastful appearance. 'Since you are so enlightened, you should be able to help out a little. Are you trying to help me by standing by the side?' That was a ruckus. Hooligan!

"I'll give you twenty minutes to organize your things, then we can go downstairs to eat together."

Pei Yi Chen looked at her fuming face that resembled a little bun and curled his lips invisibly. No matter how useful Ning Xia was, at least looking at her would make him in a good mood.

"I'll go!"

Ning Xia pursed her lips and forced herself to reveal a smile that was uglier than crying. She silently gave Pei Yi Chen the middle finger in her heart.

However, when he thought of eating, he packed all his clothes and hung them in his closet as quickly as he could. He even put his cosmetics into the bathroom in his room.

She agreed with this. The quality of life for the rich was great. Just this room alone was bigger than the small house she had bought before.

Pei Yi Chen watched as she bent over to pick up the items and then jogged to place them down. Although she looked flustered and flustered, she arranged her items neatly. This kind of messy and orderly person would always have a meticulous mind.

Except for the sweat, she was very light. The thin summer dress clung to her body, outlining her perfect figure.

Pei Yi Chen thought back to how this little girl had habitually wrapped herself in a loose skirt to hide her beauty.

There were fine beads of sweat on her face, and some of her hair was stuck to her face. However, she didn't seem to care in the slightest. Her entire body revealed a kind of laziness, causing Pei Yi Chen's throat to roll. Perplexity.

"Phew ~ Alright!"

Ning Xia was washing her face under the tap at the washbasin. She casually tied up her hair. Because she was running all over the place, her face was pink and tender, exuding the liveliness of a young girl.

Pei Yi Chen embarrassedly turned his head to the side with an unnatural expression.

He had seen quite a few women in the past few years. However, Ning Xia was the first one who was able to stir his emotions with such simple words.

He deliberately shifted his gaze and saw the neatly arranged skincare products and cosmetics. "You really are unpresentable."

Her so-called skincare products were the most basic facial mask and moisturizing cream. Her so-called cosmetics were eyebrow pencil and a pale lipstick. There was also a sunscreen at the side. Other than that, there was nothing else.

"I am a natural born beauty, that's enough!"

She just had the capital to be headstrong, keep a good mood, get up early to go to bed and exercise, than what skin care cosmetics!

Besides, she was used to it. She didn't even use her eyebrows or lipstick unless it was necessary.

Pei Yi Chen looked at her elegant appearance and thought of a poem for some reason: 'It's always appropriate to put on thick makeup.'

When she put on her makeup, she looked like a beautiful red rose. When she put on her plain face, she looked like a clear camellia. No matter which one it was, it would make people want to go near her and pick it.

Needless to say, this time, Pei Shijie had a good eye for people.

"Young master, dinner is ready. When can we start?"

The housekeeper, Uncle Wu, stood outside the door and asked softly. He had already told the old man about the young mistress having moved here. Although he wasn't too happy with the room, the old man was still very happy.

"Right away."

Pei Yi Chen replied and gave Ning Xia a warning look. Ning Xia was in a trance, and immediately thought of something. She revealed a sweet and beautiful smile and stood behind Pei Yi Chen, pushing the wheelchair.

Pei Yi Chen, who had his back facing Ning Xia, smiled. He suddenly had a premonition that for a very long time in the future, his world wouldn't be too lonely.

However, there was still a bit of disappointment in his heart. If she was the one accompanying him at this moment, how good would it be?

However, ever since that summer had ended, it was as if she had disappeared from the face of the earth and could not be contacted no matter what. Even now that he had returned to look for her, he was still unable to find any information regarding her.

"Could it be … too wasteful?"

While Pei Yi Chen was deep in his thoughts, Ning Xia had already pushed him into the dining room. On the ancient table, there were more than ten different dishes, each of which had a different color and fragrance.

The crux of the matter was, it seemed, that it was just the two of them eating.

Every seat was neatly placed with a wooden chair. When Ning Xia glanced around, she could see that there were no chairs next to the seat of honor. She guessed that it was Pei Yi Chen's own doing and directly pushed the wheelchair.

Pei Yi Chen was extremely satisfied with her meticulousness, so he kindly explained, "In order to prevent bad guys from poisoning you, there are many dishes. If people can't guess your taste, the probability of you being poisoned to death will naturally be reduced."

"Heh, do you think you're an ancient emperor? Do you want me to test your poison with silver needles?" Or do you need a eunuch to test your cooking? What a joke. "

Ning Xia pursed her lips, but her gaze was fixated on Pei Yi Chen's wheelchair. This height seemed to be a little short at the dining table. She seriously considered whether or not she should remind him to sit down.

Pei Yi Chen raised his eyebrows. Under her suspicious gaze, he pressed a button on the side of the armrest. Instantly, the originally low wheelchair began to rise.

When he reached the right height, he would automatically stop.

Pei Yi Chen saw that Ning Xia looked as if she had never seen the world before, and helplessly held his forehead. "Sit down, eat. You'll meet more amazing things in the future. Calm down."

Under Pei Yi Chen's contemptuous gaze, Ning Xia closed her mouth and thought, as expected of a rich person!

"Uncle Wu, let's have a taste."

Pei Yi Chen said to Uncle Wu and Uncle Wu immediately bowed respectfully. He picked up his chopsticks and picked up the dish.

Ning Xia was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the dish would actually be tried. If there really was poison, then wouldn't that be the first time Uncle Wu was poisoned to death?

Heavens, Uncle Wu was so amiable, even cooking so many dishes for them to eat. How could they let him do such a dangerous thing?!

Ning Xia suddenly stood up and slapped the chopsticks in Uncle Wu's hand. "Uncle Wu, no!"

When Ning Xia saw that she had successfully stopped Uncle Wu from cooking, she heaved a sigh of relief. She then turned her head to look at Pei Yi Chen, her eyes filled with rage.
