C134 You're just her shadow

Mo Nuan and Pei Li Heng agreed to meet at noon, and the two went to a café. By the time Mo Nuan arrived, he was already there, and Mo Nuan saw the bruise on the corner of his mouth with a glance, and she frowned: "Senior brother, what's wrong with the corner of your mouth?"

"He's fighting someone else." Pei Li Heng didn't hide anything and said straightforwardly.

Mo Nuan laughed and shook her head, she did not think that there was any connection between him and Lu Chen at all, it was just a coincidence, "My husband fought with someone two days ago, and you guys are already thirty years old, why are you still fighting with a seventeen or eighteen year old brat, what kind of mentality is that?"

Pei Li Heng gave a slight cold snort, and went straight to the point: "It was precisely against him."

"What?" Senior Brother, what did you say? " Mo Nuan thought she misheard, and couldn't help but repeat herself.

"I knew he definitely didn't tell you anything. I'm old friends with him and Zi Hao, and they're brothers that grew up together. It's just that our relationship has drifted apart since then." Pei Li Heng explained.

Mo Nuan was shocked, she knew that Pei Li Heng was from A City and her family background was not bad. Both of her parents held important positions in the military region, but she never thought that he and Lu Chen had such a relationship.

That man should know about the relationship between Pei Li Heng and her, why didn't he tell her?

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat first."

Mo Nuan nodded her head, seeing that Pei Li Heng did not want to say more, he did not ask further, and asked while eating: "Is the work at A City done yet?"

"It's over, I'll be staying in the A City."

You can spend more time with your family. After all, you have already been in the A City for a few years, so nothing is more important than your family.

"Xiao Wen, I want to ask, if I did something that hurt you, would you still treat me as a friend?"

Mo Nuan was startled, she looked at Pei Li Heng with a puzzled expression. When they met this time, she realised that he seemed to have changed a little, but she could not pinpoint what it meant, "Senior Brother must be joking, are you able to harm me?"

"The truth, the truths that you don't know about, with regards to the matters between me, Lu Chen, and Ji Ying Li, I can tell you."

A bad premonition surfaced in Mo Nuan's heart as she frowned and asked: "Who is Ji Ying Li?"

"Lu Chen's ex-girlfriend, the person I like."

Even if Pei Li Heng said it simply, she could roughly guess. He knew that there was a woman in Pei Li Heng's heart, and that was the reason why he had left B City for five years. She did not expect him to be the same person as Lu Chen's ex-girlfriend.

She had heard too many brothers have opposing intentions, so she asked without even thinking, "Your relationship with Lu Chen was also strained because of her?"

Pei Li Heng nodded.

Mo Nuan understood that Granny said that Lu Chen's ex-girlfriend had already died, and there seemed to be some connection between them as well.

Pausing for a moment, Mo Nuan spoke up, "Senior Brother, although I don't know the specific reason, it is all in the past now. Since Ji Ying Li is already dead, you should move forward and not hold on to him."

"You know?" Pei Li Heng looked at Mo Nuan with some astonishment.

"My mother-in-law told me that I know a bit, but not much."

Pei Li Heng's eyes lit up, and stared straight at Mo Nuan, as well as every single expression on her face, "Little Warm, then do you want to know?" The implication was that as long as she wanted to know, he could tell her.

Mo Nuan shook her head. She remembered that Lu Chen had told her before that she could ask him personally if she wanted to know anything.

She had thought that he was just speaking casually, but now she understood that he was worried that she would easily believe his words.

He must have known that such a day would come.

"Xiao Wen, you are trying to escape. If I say that you and Ji Ying Li have some similarities, and that both of you are an auditor, would you still be indifferent about it?"

Mo Nuan was startled for a moment, and then, she met his gaze. "Senior Brother, you're saying that I'm Ji Ying Li's shadow?"

"Senior Brother, in this world, there are tens of thousands of people with similar characters, and there are also a lot of people working as an auditor. Furthermore, since she and I do not resemble each other at all, it is not right to draw such a conclusion."

I can still tell whether or not a person is truly good to me. I only know that when Lu Chen and I were together, he always thought of me in her heart, and never once thought of me as a woman. Even when he was sleeping, he would call me by my name. Maybe he's moved by the past, but I think it's just the normal emotional fluctuations of a person. If he's completely cold-blooded, then I should be the one to worry about him. Maybe one day he'll do the same to me. "

Pei Li Heng looked at Mo Nuan in disbelief, unable to believe that these words were actually spoken from her mouth. He had always known that treating emotions with her eyes wouldn't allow him to rub away sand, if not he wouldn't have been tangled up for so long that Lu Chen took advantage of a loophole and caught him by surprise.

"What if I say that he loved that woman very much? for the sake of him not caring about his relationship with my brother. "

Mo Nuan's expression changed for a moment, almost indiscernible, and then, she said: "Senior Brother, I believe him. Since I'm married to him, I'll calmly accept his past." Just like how he still had Lu Family to ignore her past.

The corner of Pei Li Heng's mouth revealed a mocking smile, "Lu Chen sure is capable. She could have brainwashed you in such a short amount of time. You believe him that much?

Mo Nuan couldn't bear Pei Li Heng using such a tone to talk about Lu Chen, so she said in a heavy voice, "Senior Brother, it was you who neglected this problem. We have actually only been married for more than three months, not even half a year.

The man didn't try to hide it from the start. He just didn't know how to start. She believed that every scar needed a period of time to heal. After healing, it would also take a period of time to forget. This way, it would be possible to forget that there had once been a wound after many years.

Yes, it had only been three months, but in these short three months, he saw in her eyes her unreserved love and trust towards Lu Chen. This was what he found hard to accept.

"You have fallen in love with him? Isn't it? " Pei Li Heng's tone was not good, it was clear that it carried a sense of coercion.

Mo Nuan was a little angry at Pei Li Heng's overbearing attitude. If he was not the one carrying her on one hand, she would have already turned against him. How could she still speak to him in such a calm manner?
