Pei Qingcheng laughed bitterly at herself, "I am not a judge, I can't condemn someone for their crimes."
"You can convict me." He gently pinched Pei Qingcheng's soft earlobes, as if he was playing with a precious treasure, "You can take my life as well. If you condemn me, then I'll be guilty. If not guilty, then I'll be innocent."
"I don't have that kind of ability." She shrunk her head, wanting to get off his feet, but he pulled her into his embrace. "The ground is cold."
Lying in Ye Wen's embrace with his face pressed against his chest, listening to his heartbeat, Pei Qingcheng was speechless.
Nightingale did not speak again, and they embraced in silence.
She looked extremely harmonious, as though she was in love with Pei Qingcheng, while Pei Qingcheng was in love with Ye Wen as well.
However, Ye Wen knew that Pei Qingcheng would never fall in love with him.
In his heart, he had already been imprisoned. Not only that, he had been sentenced to life imprisonment. Only Pei Qingcheng could release him.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open again. Housekeeper Hu's footsteps sounded from the door to the washroom: "Sir, fortunately you didn't go to the hospital. The old lady came to check the post!"
Suddenly, he raised his head and saw Ye Wen and Pei Qingcheng tightly hugging each other. Housekeeper Hu froze in shock, feeling extremely awkward. He scratched his head, not knowing where to place his hands.
"Butler Hu, what did you say just now?" Ye Wen frowned slightly. If Butler Hu had not stayed in Ye Ye Ye's home for so many years, he would have dared to ask the old man to leave.
"Oh." Steward Hu came back to his senses and hastily said, "The Old Mistress has come. She still doesn't know about your injury. Mr. Ye and Madam are hiding it from her."
"You go out first and chat with her for a while. We'll be down later."
"Oh, okay, okay." Steward Hu walked outside and said, "Sir, Madam, you can take your time."
Steward Hu, who was over sixty years old, was quite reckless. When he was gone, Pei Qingcheng discovered that she was still standing on his feet. All their intimate actions in the morning had been noticed by Steward Hu, and he wondered how they would be spread around in front of the other servants.
Struggling to get down, Nightingale picked her up and carried her out of the washroom. She placed her on the sofa and then placed her slippers at her feet. "My grandmother, 78 years old, has a very funny personality. She says you don't have to bother with her."
He explained how Pei Qingcheng put her feet into her slippers, "She can slowly change her clothes and go down. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Was she afraid? Or did Ye Wen feel that she was a little uneasy?
Smiling reluctantly, Pei Qingcheng pursed her lips, "Such a kind old lady."
"Kindness is a different matter." "I'm going back to my room to change."
Suddenly, the door was pushed open again. Ye Ye Wen couldn't help but frown, "Housekeeper Hu, don't you know to knock on the door before entering the room?"
"Aiyo, good grandson, your Zhuang Shengxiao has such a big dream rule." The one standing at the door was not Butler Hu, but Madam Ye's tired grandmother.
He had gray hair and a pair of reading glasses on his face. He wore a light green coat that looked like a fat mailbox.
"Who just said I'm not kind?" The old lady walked in and looked around, "Why did you come to the guest room when you couldn't sleep?"
"Decoration." Ye Chong kept it short.
"Wife Sun." The Old Granny saw Pei Qingcheng sitting on the sofa and smiled so much that her teeth could no longer be seen. This Old Granny knew her from a long time ago and had pretended to be a lost customer the other day.
Pei Qingcheng hurriedly stood up from the sofa, "Grandmother."
"Ai, ai!" The old lady replied in a low voice as her gaze slid across Pei Qingcheng's chest.
The inside of her body was vacuum, and she wore a long, tired cotton blanket. It was very big, so that a large part of her chest was exposed.
She embarrassedly used her hands to block it, while Ye Wen quickly tightened Pei Qingcheng's belt and pulled at her collar, "Old granny, let's go back to our room to change."
"Alright, alright. I'll wait for you guys to come down for dinner." The Old Granny's laughter was extremely vulgar, her gaze was always on Pei Qingcheng's neck and chest.
Pei Qingcheng touched her neck unconsciously and suddenly thought of the strawberry growing on her neck.
He was finished. If Old Madam Ye saw him, what would she think?
No matter what she thought, that was the truth.
Pei Qingcheng could not help but blush as she lowered her head and followed Ye Wen out of the room.
She and Yennefer's room was at the far end of the corridor. She walked to the door and glanced behind her. The old lady followed her every step, and just as they were about to enter the room, she squeezed in after them.
"Old lady." Ye Wen held the door open with his hands and said, "Let's change our clothes. Do you want to leave for a while?"
"My good grandson, I grew up with him. I've never seen him before, but somewhere he's a bit big!" The old lady was smiling merrily and looked extremely kind. She didn't even feel that it was too excessive to speak of the nineteenth restriction.
The madame was like a mischievous child, causing Pei Qingcheng to feel slightly less fearful.
Ye Wen smiled with his eyes closed, but his tone was cold. "I was brought up by you, not my wife. Please come downstairs for some tea, we will come down shortly."
"Look at you protecting me. We are all women, and I don't say anything after I just look. I want to see if my good grandson's wife's butt is big enough. Can you give me a few more grandchildren?" The old lady pouted and tried to squeeze her way in.
Housekeeper Hu's voice came from outside the door: "Madam, which room do you want to stay in? I'll take your luggage to you."
"Wherever my good grandson lives, I'll live in the next room." the old lady said.
Wearily, Ye Wen opened the door and saw an enormous leather suitcase placed at the side of Housekeeper Hu's feet.
It seemed like the old lady wasn't here to investigate and still wanted to stay.
"Did he mess around at home and get kicked out?" Ye Wen raised his eyebrows and gently pushed Pei Qingcheng into the room, "Go and change your clothes first."
Taking advantage of the old lady's lack of attention to her, Pei Qingcheng hurried into the room.
Although she stayed in the guest room last night, her clothes were all here.
If the Old Granny wanted to stay here, she didn't mean it. It was just that Ye Wen still needed to go to the hospital. If the Old Granny found out, it would be very troublesome.
Pei Qingcheng walked in while listening to the spiteful bickering between the grandfather-grandson duo.
"Yeah, I was kicked out, so I can only rely on my obedient grandson to take me in."
"The villa in Hawaii is ready. You can go over for the winter."
"What, you want to send me that far away before I can even stand properly? I don't want to go to Hawaii, it's full of naked big-ass women. "
"Isn't that what you like? I'll give you a grandson. "
Pei Qingcheng walked into the cloakroom, and their voices could no longer be heard.
She quickly changed her clothes. When she came out, the madame was no longer in the room, but stood in front of the mirror and changed her clothes. She quickly changed her clothes, and when she came out, the madame was no longer in the room, but stood in front of the mirror and changed her clothes.
Pei Qingcheng walked over and helped him up with her other sleeve as she asked softly, "Does Grandmother want to stay here?"
"I'm afraid so. If I chase her away, she'll probably die from one cry and two quarrels." Ye Wen spoke with a helpless tone.
Pei Qingcheng noticed that when Ye Wen mentioned the Old Granny, his tone was especially gentle.
No matter how tough someone was, they all had a family that could make him feel good about them. Although Ye Yan wasn't like an ordinary grandson, he loved his grandma very much. Pei Qingcheng could easily tell.
A man who was good to his family couldn't be any worse.
Pei Qingcheng looked at Ye Wen's tired face and suddenly felt that she was getting more and more tired.
"What are you looking at?" Ye Wen placed a hand on her cheek, "Don't worry, she's easy to get along with."
"I wasn't worried about that. Aren't you going to the hospital?"
I'll go to the hospital during the day and come back at night. She doesn't know." He put on his coat, a dark green turtleneck with a silver-gray coat, and stood tall and straight like a model man from a magazine.
Pei Qingcheng suddenly realized that she was also wearing a silver-gray marten fur coat today, and accidentally matched up with Ye Wen in a lover's outfit.
The two of them stood in front of the mirror and looked at each other.
Pei Qingcheng was dazed for a few seconds as she walked out of the room, hugging her waist.
"Don't worry, I'll think of a way to chase her away after she stays for a few days."
"This is her home, too." Pei Qingcheng whispered.
"No, this is your home." He stopped and looked down at her, his voice like a sigh.
Pei Qingcheng lowered her eyes and refused to look him in the eye, "If you need me to cooperate, just tell me."
"You can do it yourself." Ye Wen paused in wearily, as his hands that were wrapped around Pei Qingcheng's waist stiffened, "If possible, I have a request."
"Hmm?" Pei Qingcheng raised her head.
"Can you pretend to love me?"
His voice wasn't loud, and his tone wasn't harsh. One could even hear a hint of pleading in his voice.
Pei Qingcheng's heart was heavily smashed, she could not tell what it felt like.
Ye Wen, the king of Mo City, was currently begging her for a bit of fake love.
Her breathing was ragged, as if someone had grabbed her by the throat and she was unable to breathe or to exhale.
She knew it was for the old lady, so Ye Wen asked her in this almost humble tone.
Before she could answer, he quickly said, "Don't push. Go on, go downstairs."
"Alright." She bit her lip and nodded vigorously.
The warm palm of his hand continued to radiate heat from Pei Qingcheng's waist, and his tone became lighter, "Come, let's go downstairs."
She was held in his arms and went downstairs together with him like a lover. Housekeeper Hu stood at the stairs downstairs and raised his head to smile at them, as well as the flower sister and Xiao Xiang, with the same ambiguous smile.
It was hard to say what Steward Hu had told them, but when they saw her and Ye's tired expressions, they felt very pleased.
She and Nightingale's fingers were clenched tightly as they walked downstairs to the dining room. The old lady had just picked up the bowl when she saw them waving happily, "Good grandson, my daughter-in-law, come sit by my side! Your chef's skills are pretty good, I like this Mandarin Duck egg. "
The breakfast was bountiful, but Pei Qingcheng did not even know how to eat it.
The old lady loved to fill the duck, and when she was stunned for a moment, the plates in front of her and Nightingale were filled with food.
"Eat more. My obedient grandson, why are you so pale?" Old Granny took a closer look and suddenly waved at Housekeeper Hu, "Housekeeper Hu, go instruct the kitchen to stew some tonic to nourish the well-behaved grandson's body."
"Old madam, the tonic is simmered every day."
"That's no good? stew some tiger whips and deer whips and so on. " After the old lady finished giving out instructions, she turned around and sized the two of them up with a smile, "Even if you are young, you still have to take care of your body. You can only be lively at night by taking extra supplements."
Early in the morning, the old lady started to talk about dirty jokes, but Pei Qingcheng was distracted.
Her mind kept replaying the words Nightmare had just said to her.
"Can you pretend to love me?"
