C20 Best Friend

"You were the one who insisted on taking Lee Hui's case. I thought you had honed your mentality over the years. Lee Hui is only your old friend. What if you face the person you love one day? The person who loves you? What choice will you make? Luo Luo, we can't let our emotions affect us. You should know that when a person does something, the consequences will be unpredictable. But we can't do nothing just because of this."

" I know, Master. I know everything. But, I need some time to calm down." Pei Luoluo let out a soft breath and lowered her eyes. Suddenly, she felt very sad.

In the court, when Lee Hui narrated the entire process, she saw his tears of regret. He said that he only loved one woman in his life. She was his wife. They had started from scratch and endured all the hardships they had gone through. However, they could not withstand the temptation of good days.

He said that he thanked the villagers who pleaded for him, but he said that his crime was unforgivable. He did not want to live and only wanted to die.

Pei Luoluo still remembered the look in Lee Hui's eyes when he looked at her in the end. His smile was very relieved.

He faced everyone, but his eyes were full of deep meaning and gratitude. He only said to Pei Luoluo who was at the hearing stand, "Girl, thank you. Uncle Lee did not have anything to give to you. He only gave you a word of advice. He would rather love the wrong than marry the wrong person. No matter how good a person was, it would depend on whether or not they would be able to live the rest of their life. You, Uncle Lee, have failed to uphold this principle. Hatred has numbed my original intention. Bury my marriage with your Aunt Zhang. Are you happy or not? It has always been decided by two people. "

Pei Luoluo had always remembered those words in her heart. Even after many years, she still clearly remembered the feeling at that time. That kind of heartache, regret, and reluctance.

That night, Zhang Chen was left to eat at the Pei Family. Although Pei Luoluo had studied under him for four years, it was the first time Zhang Chen came to her house to eat because of work hours.

The scene at the table was very warm. Pei's mother cooked a good dish and Pei's father was also very talkative. Pei Luoluo just quietly ate in the bowl without saying a word.

There were a few times when Pei's mother picked food for her. She did not even look up and only focused on eating. Fortunately, Zhang Chen could adjust the atmosphere and praise Pei's mother's cooking. He chatted with Pei's father about interesting things in life as if they were family.

"Pei Luoluo! Go and wash the dishes!" It was already past eight o'clock in the evening when Pei Luoluo sent Zhang Chen away. Pei Luoluo wanted to go downstairs to buy some daily necessities, so she went out alone. When she came back from shopping, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

In the past few days, there would be a black Audi parked near the entrance of the house. Because it looked familiar, she paid more attention to it. However, she did not expect that the more she looked, the more familiar it was. Under the stimulation of curiosity, Pei Luoluo placed her things on the table and walked towards the Audi.

Knock knock knock...

"What are you doing!" Lee Jie pretended not to know but was disturbed by someone. He opened the window and shouted at Pei Luoluo.

This unexplainable anger made Pei Luoluo feel very awkward. She smiled at him and said with some embarrassment, "Master, it seems that we can't park here casually."

"Is that so? Am I not here? My wife lives nearby. She quarreled with me and went back to her mother's house. I have to wait for her to calm down before I take her back." Lee Jie was a big and rough man. He was used to shouting at people in the army. When he spoke to Pei Luoluo, he did not notice. However, he gave Pei Luoluo quite a scare.

"Oh, oh, where is your wife? Everyone here said that they wanted to demolish the house, but there were only a few households. I grew up here. Do you want me to help you persuade her? " Pei Luoluo still did not give up. She felt that this person did not seem to be so simple. He looked fierce and had a face full of confidence. He really did look like the kind of person who would bully his wife.

However, he couldn't just look at the surface.

It looked like they were driving a good car, but if it was really domestic violence, Pei Luoluo definitely had to ask clearly. After all, this area was filled with old neighbors. They had been coming and going for many years, so they could not be more familiar with each other.

"Why is it so easy for you to meddle in other people's business?! You, an outsider, are also meddling in the matters between us two? I really like it. Let's go to the neighborhood committee! A place where a bunch of bitches gather, endless things to talk about, endless fights to talk about"

After saying that, Lee Jie impatiently closed the window and no longer paid attention to Pei Luoluo. He put down his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing the other party behaving like this, Pei Luoluo retracted her neck and was too embarrassed to say anything else. She shrugged her shoulders and turned around to return home.

Aiyo, my mom! This woman's vigilance is quite high! When Pei Luoluo entered the dilapidated courtyard, seeing the light in her bedroom light up, Lee Jie heaved a deep sigh of relief. He lit a cigarette and sent a safe message to Xiao Yichen, then got off the car and stretched his muscles.

Pei Luoluo carefully looked at Lee Jie's movements through the window. She felt that he really did not seem suspicious. Seeing his grumpy look, she was not sure if he really pissed her off and went back to her mother's house.

After yawning, Pei Luoluo felt very sleepy and fell asleep in a short while.

The next day, Pei Luoluo simply packed her things and returned to the city with Zhang Chen. However, she did not expect that the moment she entered the house, she would collapse.

"Lyi Zihan!" Pei Luoluo, who was standing at the door, shouted into the room. Zhang Chen stretched his neck and poked his head out of Pei Luoluo's shoulder to take a look. The food and clothes in the house were all messy together. There was not even a place to rest.

"Luo Luo! Luo Luo? My Luo Luo, where did you go? Lyi Zihan suddenly appeared out of nowhere. She was wearing pajamas and her messy hair looked like it had not been washed for a few days. She went straight to Pei Luoluo's arms and gave her a bear hug.

Lyi Zihan was already fat and Pei Luoluo was the kind of person who would fall if the wind blew. When the two of them hugged each other, Pei Luoluo immediately felt that her breathing was not smooth and used all her strength to push Lyi Zihan out.

"Let go, let go of me! You are suffocating me to death!" Pei Luoluo used all her strength to push away Lyi Zihan's arm but just as she finished speaking, Lyi Zihan cried out with snot and tears.

She hugged her and loosened her grip but was unwilling to let go. She sobbed as she said, "I called you but I couldn't find you. I called my godmother and she said that you often don't go home when handling cases. I haven't seen you for a few days. I thought something had happened to you, so I ran to your house to wait for you. I don't know when I'll be able to wait for you to come back. That's why I bought a lot of food. I've been guarding this house every day and not going anywhere." Lyi Zihan fiercely wiped away her tears and occasionally looked at Pei Luoluo's face. She pinched herself as if she was afraid that she was dreaming.

"Silly! What can happen to me! It is most likely that this phone call is too old and not working. If your WeChat account isn't good, you might not be able to receive anything. " Pei Luoluo held back her tears and looked at Lyi Zihan with heartache.

Her originally chubby face had become thinner and her dark circles were already swollen like a panda.
