When she asked this question, it was in a purely questioning tone. However, when it entered Pei Jingman's ears, she suddenly felt a cold and harsh feeling, to the point that she even thought that she was angry.

The atmosphere became tense with these words.

Pei Jingman opened her mouth as if she wanted to explain something, but also didn't know how to express it.

After a long pause, she did not utter a complete sentence.

Seeing this, Pei Luoyi's delicate eyebrows slightly twitched as she asked, "Moreover, I'm leaving. Do you think he'll let us go?"

If what she said was true, once she left, that man would be able to beat up the Pei family's company, then make a move against them or directly purchase them out of malice.

Nor did she think that the woman in front of her had not considered the seriousness of the problem before she had asked her to go abroad.

"But it's not fair for you to bear all this."

Pei Jingman lowered her eyes and spoke softly before raising her head to look at Yi Yi. "Yi, are you willing to be trapped by him just like that, without even being able to enjoy your own happiness?"

Her tone was urgent, and one could even hear a hint of unwillingness in her tone.

Feeling unresigned for her?

Pei Luoyi pursed her lips. This good older sister of hers didn't seem to be that righteous.

If that was the case, then the words that she had said a moment ago contained a lot of things that were worth carefully trying to understand.

The scene of Jia Yu Shu finding her yesterday suddenly flashed through his mind.

It was just a split-second, like a flash of light, and some things immediately appeared clearly in his mind.

"Sis."

she suddenly said.

Raising his eyes, he looked at the person across him and asked with an indifferent tone, "You aren't asking me to go abroad for your own sake, right?"

The corner of her mouth hooked into an extremely faint smile. Only her eyes did not contain the slightest hint of a smile.

Pei Jingman froze for a moment. Her long eyelashes trembled, and her fingers that were hanging down on her knees tightened.

"You … "Why do you think so of me?"

She smiled with a pale face, her gaze drifting back and forth. "And for myself? If you go abroad, what benefits will I get? "

"Yeah, when it comes to benefits, there is indeed one." Pei Luoyi looked at her unsightly smile and guessed in her heart that she was pretty close.

Pei Jingman raised her indifferent face to look at her, but kept her smile and didn't say anything.

"If you let me go, you are just afraid that he will spend his time on me and that I will rekindle my old relationship with him. When that time comes, will the marriage you worked so hard for be ruined?"

Pei Luoyi calmly said, as the woman's expression became increasingly unsightly, and she bit her lower lip in a manner that looked like she was about to bite it … It seemed like she had hit the mark?

There was no point in continuing to eat the meal. Pei Luoyi did not pick up her chopsticks to continue cooking. The atmosphere on the dining table had turned cold just like that.

After a while, the woman raised her eyes, her face covered in a look of seen through embarrassment.

"Yiyi, even if I did it for Yu Shu's sake, why do you have to make things sound so bad? I ask myself, other than the matter of marrying him, I have nothing to do with you. Could it be that you can't let go of him even with your overbearing attitude, or that you still resent me? "

"Am I being aggressive?"

Pei Luoyi was on the verge of laughing. Was she trying to force her by saying a few words of truth? If you dare to do this, you can't let others say it.

However, this woman had always been sensitive to things. No one knew when she would say something that would accidentally shatter her glass heart. Pei Luoyi wasn't surprised by her words.

"Alright, in order to prevent you from using this kind of question to invite me out again in the future, I can now clearly tell you that I don't have any ill intentions towards my current brother-in-law. I also don't have any of the grudges, resentments, and jealousy that you have imagined all day for your older sister, and I don't like the things that I see in you. Please don't add onto my drama, I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in the things between you at all."

Pei Luoyi had never tried to speak so much in one breath before, but after she finished speaking, both her body and mind felt an unprecedented feeling of relaxation.

With that said, it was almost time for the banquet to end. The lunch break was originally just for lunch. Pei Luoyi hadn't eaten her fill yet, and the moment she stood up, she was already thinking of where she could get some takeout food.

"Yiyi!"

Seeing that Pei Luoyi was about to leave, Pei Jingman immediately stood up from her chair.

Hearing this, Pei Luoyi turned around and cast a sidelong glance at her, "Is there something you need?"

"What you said just now …" The woman unconsciously curled her fingers, lowered her head, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's voice, "You absolutely won't interfere with our business, right?"

This … this … We … Pei Luoyi slowly chewed on it for a while, but didn't seem to refute him. Right now, they were indeed a couple, but to her, they were called us.

"As a mistress, my moral bottom line isn't that low."

She curled her lips, a cold light glimmering in her eyes. "If you really wanted to ask me, would you do something like what you did and do something behind your back …"

When she saw the woman's expression change, she laughed even more wantonly, "I won't either, because I really can't do such a thing." "If you don't like him, then so be it. Remember what you just said. I don't want to repeat it to the two of you a few more times."

In the end, the woman was unable to say anything. Seeing this, Pei Luoyi also left.

Along the way, he went to a small restaurant where the company often had a good dinner, packed a takeaway, and returned to the company.

Today's weather was quite good compared to the rainy days of the previous days. There was no rain. It was a cool and cloudy day all day.

After getting off work in the afternoon, thinking that it would be a weekend the next day and seeing the weather forecast, Pei Luoyi decided to go to the supermarket and find the ingredients needed for two to three days at once.

Although she didn't cook very often, she would occasionally follow the menu and cook one or two dishes according to the procedure.

One person couldn't eat that much. It was usually a standard combination of two dishes and a soup. If you don't like the trouble, you can just casually cook and fill your stomach with noodles.

The supermarket was not on the way. He took a taxi there, bought some food, and then took a taxi back to his apartment. It was so dark that only the sky was lit up.

She stood in front of the door and tried several times, but to no avail. She sighed and was about to put the bag on the ground when the door opened first.

She was startled and subconsciously took a step back.

All she could think about was what she would do if she bumped into a burglar who just happened to enter the house.

After all, only the company's gossips shared a piece of news, saying that they met a thief who happened to be stealing at home. As a result, they were stabbed and sent to the hospital.

He didn't even have time to think about whether he should just throw everything at the thief's head and run away.

Behind the door, a familiar and handsome face appeared.
