C31 Brain Tonifying

"Come down."

Even though he was downstairs, he seemed to have easily seen through Ning Xia's thoughts. When she wanted to retreat, he would give her an accurate push.

Ning Xia pursed her lips and took a deep breath helplessly. She forced herself to calm down. An ugly wife always wanted to see her in-laws. Even if she could avoid today, she could not avoid tomorrow.

After thinking it through, Ning Xia opened the door and walked downstairs.

"Grandpa, Ning Xia is here."

Pei Yichen sat beside Old Master Pei with a rare smile on his face. When he saw Ning Xia walking over, a smile appeared on his face.

In an instant, everyone in the room turned to look at Ning Xia.

Ning Xia tightened her grip on the ladder, but a decent smile appeared on her face.

She felt her gaze on her, but she walked step by step, extremely steadily.

The more it was like this, the more he could not make the slightest mistake.

She walked up to Pei Yichen and put her hand on his outstretched palm.

Pei Yichen introduced her with a smile, "Call me grandpa."

Ning Xia looked at the energetic old man and nodded with a smile. She called out gently, "Hello, Grandpa."

Old Master Pei paid attention to the expression between the two of them and felt touched. Finally, there was someone to accompany this child.

"Good, good child."

Ning Xia's obedient behavior made him very satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law. As long as he could take good care of Yichen, he would be even happier and wouldn't have any extra requests.

Seeing Old Master Pei being so kind to her, Ning Xia's tense body relaxed. Holding his cold hand, for some reason, there seemed to be a kind of comfort.

What was there to be afraid of? Pei Yichen was the one supporting everything.

According to common sense, as Ning Xia's husband, Pei Yichen would naturally introduce the others after introducing his grandfather. However, Pei Yichen did not make a sound. He held Ning Xia's hand and lowered his head to play with it.

Why hadn't he noticed before that this girl's fingers were long and fair, and they were very pretty?

Ning Xia smiled awkwardly. She wanted to take her hand back, but Pei Yichen did not give her the chance. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not achieve her goal.

Pei Shijie's eyes fell on the two hands that were secretly competing with each other. He curled his lips slightly. Interesting. Up until now, they didn't seem to be as harmonious as they seemed.

"Ning Xia, that's your uncle."

Old Master Pei cast a sidelong glance at his grandson and realized that he had no intention of introducing himself, so he had no choice but to speak.

"Hello, Uncle."

Ning Xia respectfully called out to Pei Jianye, but this time, she clearly felt the weight on her hand increase.

"This is your aunt."

Ning Xia looked at the person he was pointing at. It was a seemingly gentle and intellectual woman. "Hello, Aunty."

"This is..."

"Grandpa, Ning Xia is hungry."

Pei Yichen obviously didn't want to waste his time here before the old man finished introducing them one by one.

Ning Xia was speechless. What did she mean by hungry?

However...

It was almost noon and she was really hungry.

"Then let's eat. After dinner, play some chess with me."

Old Master Pei really admired this girl. In the study room just now, Pei Yichen had already explained everything clearly. Although the two of them were working together, it wouldn't be bad if they could become friends with Pei Yichen for a long time. However, the Ning Family's actions really made him unhappy.

Ning Xia took the initiative to stand behind Pei Yichen and pushed his wheelchair. He looked as if he had lived in the city for many years. Pei Shijie squinted his eyes and was very displeased.

The dining room, according to the main and secondary seats, had all fallen. Ning Xia could not help but curse in her heart. She finally understood why a restaurant in Pei Family was so much bigger than her simple room and living room. After all, there were so many people...

"Dad, come, eat some fish."

Pei Jianye tried to pick food for Old Master Pei, but he did not stop. "Look, Yichen has someone to take care of himself now. Don't you need to work so hard in the company every day? Two young people, it would be better if you went on a trip or something, right? You don't need to ask about the company anymore. Why don't you let Shijie take over?"

"Pa!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Old Master Pei's chopsticks fell on the table.

Pei Jianye opened his mouth but didn't dare to say another word. He sat on his seat and shut his mouth.

Pei Shijie looked at him helplessly. It would be strange if his father didn't embarrass him!

"Grandpa, my dad loves his son so much. Don't take it to heart. Yichen and I are your grandsons. We still have a lot to learn."

He smiled and apologized to Old Master Pei without leaving any trace, which made the woman in the cheongsam opposite him laugh.

In an instant, the atmosphere at the dining table became extremely strange.

Ning Xia sat next to Pei Yichen, trying her best to reduce her sense of existence.

If she still didn't understand why Pei Yichen wanted her to be a spy, she would be a fool.

Old Master Pei was getting older and older. Pei Yichen was physically disabled. Currently, there was only one son in the Pei Family, Pei Jianye. Of course, he wanted his child Pei Shijie to inherit such a huge business. However, what Old Master Pei valued more was his crippled grandson, Pei Yichen.

What Old Master Pei cared about the most was probably Pei Yichen's legs, but Pei Jianye kept bringing them up like a fool. It was no wonder that Old Master Pei was disgusted by him.

Then her role should be to make this smiling peacock man give himself away.

When she thought about Pei Yichen's disgusted look when she first met him, she finally got the whole thing over with!

That was why Pei Yichen wanted her to use the beauty trick to pretend to be Pei Shijie's spy, pass false information, confuse the enemy, and then kill him with a single strike!

Good move!

Ning Xia nodded silently. This was simply a palace battle!

The point was, why was he so confident in himself?

Was he not afraid that he was really sent by Pei Shijie?

He had means, courage, and was good at disguising himself. Most importantly, he had Old Master Pei as his backer. Pei Yichen was the biggest dark boss. Now that Pei Shijie had been fooled by his illusion of disability, it seemed like he would lose for sure...

Ning Xia felt sorry for Pei Shijie. If she hadn't seen Pei Yichen stand up in front of her, she wouldn't have believed it. But how did Pei Yichen get into a car accident?

There were rumors that his legs were disabled due to an accident, but if it was an accident, he wouldn't be disabled. Wouldn't it be more beneficial for him?

Could it be that his accident was not an accident?

Ning Xia was shocked by her own thoughts, and the essence of her acting skills was completely exposed. She actually imagined the scene of revenge for the grudge between the rich and powerful families...

Pei Yichen slightly raised his eyebrows. He was very curious about the interesting expression on her face.
