After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back

Chapter 111 I also want to do my best

Now that there was no one else around, Xie Shuyao felt that there were some things she still needed to clarify.

While applying the medicine, she asked, "You and Lu Beixiao don't know each other, why did you suddenly start fighting?"

Pei Jingyi said calmly, "Didn't I tell you that we are sparring in martial arts?"

After hearing this, Xie Shuyao stopped what she was doing and looked at him without blinking.

That look seemed to be saying: Do you think I'm a fool?

Pei Jingyi cleared his throat, a rare look of embarrassment showing on his face.

It's not a pleasant thing to admit that you read other people's letters.

He asked back: "Then tell me first, where did you go yesterday?"

To say this is tantamount to implicit admission.

Xie Shuyao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then she immediately reacted when she thought about what he did yesterday and what happened today.

She said with a straight face: "So you know everything and you're still testing me. You don't think there's anything going on between me and Lu Beixiao, do you? I finally understand. You don't trust me at all."

Pei Jingyi was indeed in the wrong in this matter, but he was kicked out of bed and slapped last night, which had already made him lose face. He had to save face today.

He asked back, "Weren't you the one who lied first?"

Xie Shuyao narrowed her eyes slightly and suddenly understood, so this was what he meant by what he said before going to bed.

Bringing up the past, Xie Shuyao was not afraid at all, and said confidently: "Then why don't you bring ..."

Halfway through her speech, she realized that she was still outside and lowered her voice and said, "That."

Speaking of this, Pei Jingyi's resolute face flushed, and he said with a straight face: "I didn't mean it. It's not the right time yet."

With these two experiences, Xie Shuyao already knew that Pei Jingyi liked to talk nonsense in bed, so did she take it seriously yesterday?

She resumed applying medicine to Pei Jingyi, her tone much softer than before:

"I didn't say I was going to Youzhou to find a capable general. I wanted Meng Nianrui to help me make the connection, but things weren't confirmed yet, so I didn't tell you yet."

At this point, Xie Shuyao looked at the hideous wound on Pei Jingyi's face and said with a guilty conscience: "I just want to do my part."

Who knew that their auras were so incompatible that they actually started fighting.

Pei Jingyi stretched his body and felt his shoulders ache, most likely due to bruises. He said coolly, "I appreciate your kindness."

Xie Shuyao curled her lips, looking reluctant.

Pei Jingyi saw it, raised his hand to block her hand, and said, "Okay."

Xie Shuyao's arms were just sore, so she quickly put the medicine aside. But at this moment, she realized that Pei Jingyi's hand did not leave her, but held hers.

With their palms clasped together, Xie Shuyao glanced at them out of the corner of her eye and quickly looked out the window.

On the other side, Lu Beixiao covered his ribs and cursed Pei Jingyi a hundred times in his heart.

"Fuck, he really killed me. I'll finally remember him."

Meng Nianrui looked at him quietly, having roughly reviewed what had happened in her mind.

She didn't know why Pei Jingyi appeared here, but she knew why Lu Beixiao was here.

Xiao Shuang said last night that when she went out to deliver a letter, she was stopped by someone from the Lu family, who asked her to deliver it for her.

Everything points to one answer.

Meng Nianrui said slowly: "Did you peek at the letter I sent?"

When Lu Beixiao heard this, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly cried out "Ouch!" He took Meng Nianrui's hand and put it on his abdomen, saying exaggeratedly: "Look, are my ribs broken?"
