C239 She Was out of Place

"If it's fake, is that right? Hubby?" Pei Luoluo curled her lips and even deliberately put her body into Xiao Yichen's embrace. She raised her eyebrows and looked at the deathly pale Catherine.

She thought, Why is this woman so good at pretending?

"I didn't ask you again!" Catherine seemed to be angered as well. She pointed at Xiao Yichen, whose face was still cold, and asked unwillingly, "Tell me! Am I right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Yichen answered Catherine's question directly without any hesitation.

"During the year that you were unconscious, not only did I marry a wife, I also did all the things that husband and wife should do, including... the child."

Xiao Yichen had a very calm expression between his eyebrows, but Pei Luoluo could still feel the emotions that he was trying his best to hide. She still saw the entanglement in his eyes, and also felt his heartache. She also understood that it was a tolerance that she could not understand.

In any case, they had known each other for a while. Pei Luoluo did not know whether there was love or not, but there was one thing she was sure of. Xiao Yichen had feelings for her. However, it was still unknown how much weight this kind of feelings held in Xiao Yichen's heart.

At the same time, Pei Luoluo's hand, which was holding Xiao Yichen's arm, loosened slightly. She was almost unwilling to let go of Xiao Yichen, which she had never seen before.

"Why? Chen! Why do you not want me anymore? Have you forgotten what you promised me? You said that I'm the most suitable person for you. Why did you betray me now?"

Catherine's body involuntarily stepped back. The despair, tears, and even anger in her voice made her lose her rationality.

"Catherine!"

Just as Catherine stumbled backwards, she lost her balance and fell backwards. In an instant, Xiao Yichen called out in a low voice. Almost instinctively, he rushed forward and pulled Catherine's hand. When he pulled her into his embrace, the two of them staggered a few steps and were able to stand steadily.

All of this was like a chain reaction. They did not even think before doing it.

When Xiao Yichen hugged Catherine and reacted, Catherine's pale blue eyes did not hide her deep affection. It was like a loud slap to his face. It instantly made his brain buzz and stopped as if a piece had been cut off.

He was stunned for a while. When he raised his soulless black eyes to look at Pei Luoluo's clear eyes, he saw a pair of eyes that were blurred with a smile and covered with a thin layer of fog.

It felt like needles had pierced into Xiao Yichen's heart.

He wanted to walk towards Pei Luoluo's side but was tightly hugged by Catherine. Moreover, it seemed like she understood his actions and was unwilling to let go no matter what.

Pei Luoluo saw it and took a few steps back. She knew that Xiao Yichen wanted to get closer. Her eyebrows slightly wrinkled as if she was saying to him, I don't need it.

I don't need your pity, don't need your charity, don't need your hug.

No need, your hypocrisy...

"Cough cough..." A rapid cough attracted everyone's attention.

Pei Luoluo then recovered her senses and remembered that there were still others in the hall. She slightly raised her head to wipe away the tears at the corners of her eyes and choked on her throat. She took a deep breath and called out respectfully with a hoarse voice, "Grandfather."

Xiao Yichen also took advantage of this time to pull out the hand that Catherine was holding tightly to the next door. He walked in front of her grandfather and caressed it. Catherine also very politely went forward to support Old Master Xiao's other arm. She sweetly called him grandpa.

Xiao Feng's face sank. He did not push Catherine's hand away and only said, It's time to eat. Then he walked towards the restaurant.

Only Pei Luoluo felt like she was an extra person. She looked at the people slowly walking towards the restaurant and her footsteps seemed to be nailed. She did not move.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing standing there?! The living room is not a place to eat. What should I do?"

As everyone walked slowly towards the restaurant, Xiao Yichen looked back. Just as he was about to turn around and walk to Pei Luoluo's side, the mysterious silver man who did not like Pei Luoluo the whole time. Xiao Yimo was the only one who had walked forward and held her hand as they walked towards the restaurant.

His voice was very soft and lingered in Pei Luoluo's ears. Because he was wearing a mask, she could not see his expression at all. She only felt that his palm was slightly cold. She did not want Xiao Yichen's hand to be warm.

When Xiao Yimo pulled Pei Luoluo along, his steps were very slow, as if he was deliberately pulling apart the distance between them. He could only make people who were paying attention to him anxious in their hearts.

After all, he was holding Pei Luoluo's hand.

"Let me go." Pei Luoluo growled in a low voice. She struggled a few times but was unable to get away. She was so annoyed and confused and her heart started to become angry.

"You just abandoned me for a while and you became angry from embarrassment. How are you going to fight with those women outside who want to sleep with your man?"

Xiao Yimo's words first stunned Pei Luoluo. Then she slightly opened her mouth and looked at the man in front of her with surprise. The man who had always looked for trouble with her.

"Let's go!" Xiao Yimo deliberately bent down and whispered in her ear. His voice had a kind of bewitching power at that moment. Suddenly Pei Luoluo stopped struggling and actually lowered her head. She laughed softly.

They were like a pair of little lovers who were not locked up. They were secretly flirting behind people's backs.

However, a pair of cold eyes that was like ten winter moons shot over, and when they looked back, it was indeed Xiao Yimo's disdainful expression, and Pei Luoluo still lowered her head and smiled without saying a word, ignoring him.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yichen supported his grandfather's hand and could not help but clench his fist tighter and tighter.

"Human, you can't be too greedy." Xiao Feng shook his head slightly and did not look at anyone else. He only sighed and said it to the person who understood.

If it was said that the women in Europe were very open-minded, and even their sex was not hidden, then there was also the unrestrained nature in their bones.

Catherine ignored the rules of the Xiao house seats and took Pei Luoluo's seat next to Xiao Yichen. Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Yichen and did not say anything. Then they looked at the two people behind at the same time.

They seemed to be separated from the welcome people and sat opposite of the long table with a tacit understanding.

Xiao Yimo pulled the chair and let Pei Luoluo sit down before he sat down.

"The main character today is Miss Catherine. Don't worry big brother. You take care of your guest. I will take care of sister-in-law for you." Xiao Yimo appeared very indifferent towards the gazes of everyone who had their own thoughts on their minds.

When he spoke, he stared straight at Xiao Yichen. He did not care about Xiao Yichen's cold light and his anger.

"That's right, Hubby. It's rare for an old friend to come. Take good care of him. We are always together. We don't need this moment. " Pei Luoluo curled the corner of her mouth and gave a beautiful smile.
