C145 I Want to be an Ostrich

Ning Xia thought of her child and was about to get up to rest when the doorbell suddenly rang. Ning Xia and Ye Zi looked at each other, wondering who would come here for such a party.

Yezi tiptoed to the cat's eye and looked at it. She turned to look at Ning Xia with surprise and mouthed the words "President Pei" silently.

Ning Xia frowned. She did not know why, but she did not want to see Pei Yichen now.

She didn't know how to face him, or how to talk about the baby.

"I'm not here."

Ning Xia mouthed and walked towards the room with light steps. She was very tired and wanted to sleep. She did not want to think about this anymore.

However, the doorbell kept ringing, one after another, causing one to feel slightly irritated.

Ning Xia, who had just reached the bedroom door, clenched her teeth. In fact, she would have to face this moment sooner or later!

Ning Xia turned around and walked to the door. Her hand grabbed the handle of the door. The scene of Pei Yichen holding Lin Qingfeng's hand had always been in her mind. She did not want to think about it, but she could not stop it.

Ning Xia took a deep breath and opened the door. She saw Pei Yichen standing tall and straight at the door.

His face was extremely dark, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes.

"Why didn't you answer the phone?"

This was the first thing Pei Yichen said to her after not seeing her for more than a month.

Ning Xia's nose was a little sour, but she pressed her palm hard to stop herself from crying.

She carefully savored this sentence as a self-deprecating smile appeared on her lips.

Pei Yichen frowned. He did not know why Ning Xia looked like this. He had been waiting for her in the shop, but she did not come in the middle of the night. He did not understand why she called him. It was not easy for him to locate her phone and find her here.

"Pei Yichen, what kind of identity do you have to question me now? Who gave you the right to question me like this?"

All of Ning Xia's previous calm was broken. She looked at the man in front of her who made her feel pain and shouted loudly.

Pei Yichen obviously did not expect Ning Xia to lose his composure and shout at him. He frowned and his voice became much gentler, "Xia, what happened?"

"Don't call me Xia. I feel sick!"

Ning Xia sniffed. What was the point of being so gentle to her now? Was she going to let her continue being a fool?

"Pei Yichen, I was wrong about you. You are a scumbag. I don't want to see you ever again!"

As she spoke, Ning Xia was about to close the door. Right now, she just wanted to stay away from this guy.

Pei Yichen reached his hand in without any hesitation and was held in the middle by Ning Xia.

"Ning Xia, I'm sorry. I didn't have a good attitude just now. It's just that I waited for you for a day without seeing you. I'm a little anxious."

Pei Yichen's voice returned to his usual gentle tone towards her. There must be a reason why Ning Xia suddenly acted like this.

Ning Xia saw that the back of his hand was already red and swollen. She subconsciously brought the door handle to him. At this moment, she admitted that she had softened her heart.

"Ning Xia, can we go home?"

He really missed her these days.

Ning Xia sighed. "I want to stay here for the night. We'll talk about it tomorrow. Give me some time."

She needed time to think about how she should continue chatting with him.

What should he say about the past, what should he say about the present?

Pei Yichen frowned. He wanted to take Ning Xia away by force. No matter what happened, they should solve it face to face.

Moreover, he really couldn't understand why Ning Xia would suddenly become like this. They were clearly happily talking on the phone a few hours ago.

"What happened?"

Ning Xia was furious when she heard his tone. 'Don't you know what happened?'

"Pei Yichen, let me tell you something. I need to take care of my emotions before I can talk to you about this. I will look for you at the company tomorrow morning. Please leave now."

Ning Xia stubbornly raised her head, trying her best not to think about those messy things.

Pei Yichen frowned. Ning Xia's emotions were unstable right now. He knew that there was no point in saying anything more. He might as well let her calm down and talk about other things.

"Okay, I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you in the office tomorrow morning."

Only after Pei Yichen left did Ning Xia feel that her breathing had finally become a little smoother. Facing Pei Yichen, she always felt that she didn't even have the courage to question him.

She didn't even notice it herself. She sensed the fear in her heart. She was afraid that Pei Yichen would say something bad that she didn't want to hear.

Yezi looked at the strange atmosphere between the two of them and couldn't help but say, "Ning Xia, although I don't know what happened that made you so sad, can you use your brain? Pei Yichen treated you so well before. Were you pretending?"

"That's because Lin Qingfeng hasn't appeared in the past. Now, Lin Qingfeng..."

When the words were about to come out of her mouth, Ning Xia could not say anything. Hearing that, Yezi was stunned. She even started to imagine some scenes.

"F * ck, are you sure? This kind of thing isn't something that can be casually said."

She knew Lin Qingfeng was not a good person, but she did not expect her hands to be so long. She actually reached President Pei's place!

"I saw it with my own eyes."

Ning Xia leaned back into the sofa and rubbed her forehead in annoyance. She wanted to convince herself, but she had seen it with her own eyes. She knew what Pei Yichen had done. How could she make herself believe Pei Yichen?

While Ye Zi was shocked, she quickly thought about the cause and effect of this matter. "Xia Tian, sometimes what you see might not necessarily be the truth. We have to look carefully."

Ning Xia looked at Yezi in shock. The two of them had known each other for many years, but Yezi rarely called her Summer. She said that it was Ning Xia's painful memory, the name of the orphanage when she had no one to rely on, so she did not want to call her Summer.

So all these years, she was Ning Xia and Ning Xia's name. Occasionally, she would call Xia a few times.

Now that she had suddenly called him that, Ning Xia had no choice but to take her words seriously.

With your heart?

Thinking about everything that had happened between her and Pei Yichen, Ning Xia helplessly closed her eyes. There were crystal clear tears flowing down from the corner of her eyes.

"I'm tired. I'm going to sleep first."

Ning Xia returned to her room and curled up in bed. She suddenly felt that this world was terrifying, and the people around her were terrifying as well.

Yezi sighed helplessly. It seemed that things were not as simple as she thought. What could she do for Ning Xia...
