C36 An Imaginary Promise

Xiao Yichen also noticed that there was something wrong with Pei Luoluo's expression. He looked in the direction of her eyes. Sure enough, he also saw the stern look on Grandma Pei's face. However, he did not mind. He looked at Pei Luoluo who was nervously folding her hands in front of her knees. He stretched out his hand to grab her palm and then pulled her over to his leg.

This action gave Pei Luoluo a fright. She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand out, but Xiao Yichen held her even tighter. She looked at Xiao Yichen in a daze. She slightly leaned to the side and whispered into Xiao Yichen's ear, "What are you doing?"

"You better not mess up my acting!" The voice was commanding, but there was a faint smile on his face.

Pei Luoluo suddenly felt that this man who clearly had a smile on his face but gave off a dangerous aura was really scary.

"You better not laugh. It is so scary." Pei Luoluo forced a smile and squeezed out these words through the gaps between her teeth. Then she saw Xiao Yichen looking at her coldly. It only took a moment for him to return to his smiling face.

"Then choose an expression that you like?" Xiao Yichen's words were so demonic that Pei Luoluo could not help but have goosebumps all over her body. She had to admit that no matter from which angle and which face it was, the man in front of her was really too attractive and scary.

Everyone present saw the little tricks of these two people in private. The happiest person was none other than Xiao Feng. He saw that the usually cool and cold Xiao Yichen also had a smile and tenderness that he could not see all year round in front of Pei Luoluo. This made him even more certain that the wife he chose for his most beloved grandson was so suitable.

"Qing Qing, take a look. Are you satisfied with this daughter-in-law?" Xiao Feng's eyes contained a smile. He asked Ouyang Qing softly, who was talking to Xiao Yichen's father beside him.

However, his peripheral vision never left Grandma Pei. Pei Luoluo was the only one who noticed this.

Ouyang Qing raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Pei Luoluo with a faint smile with her crescent eyes. "Dad can't make a wrong choice. Hao Zhe and I also feel that it is quite good."

These words were too far-fetched. Pei Luoluo's heart was shocked and her hand also slightly clenched along with her strength. That cold smile just now was almost given to her to eat. It was still okay? Did they all think that they were blind and deaf? Although they knew that with their status, they definitely wouldn't be able to enter other people's eyes, but when they really faced all of this in front of their faces... Pei Luoluo still felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

The corner of Pei Luoluo's mouth twitched slightly, but she forgot that her left hand was still in Xiao Yichen's big palm. Her grip just now had attracted Xiao Yichen's attention. He slightly glared at Pei Luoluo, and Pei Luoluo pursed her lips and continued to smile. But this feeling was really as terrible as it could be.

He raised his right hand and rubbed his temples. He felt that his head was even more swollen and painful than before. He had already started to feel dizzy and dizzy. It was so heavy that he really wanted to sleep.

"It's good that you guys are satisfied. I wonder how my family treats our Yichen..." When Xiao Feng said this, he especially looked at Grandma Pei. However, he was hit back by her fierce and cold gaze.

"Good, good, good, good! Yichen, this child, was really likeable. He was sensible and outstanding. He's still so young and promising. We, Luo Luo, really don't know when we, Luo Luo, have been blessed to meet such a good man. " Su Li did not wait for Xiao Feng to finish speaking before she quickly followed up.

Pei's father, on the other hand, stayed at the side and didn't say anything. Xiao Feng noticed that he seemed to have something to say in his heart, so he deliberately asked another question, "My dear family, it seems like you have something against us, Yichen?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze fell upon Pei's father. Pei's father didn't expect Xiao Feng to specifically ask for his opinion, and his face instantly became somewhat awkward.

Pei's father could be seen standing straight, his hands were placed on the table and lightly clenched. Then, he looked sideways at Xiao Yichen and Pei Luoluo and asked with a serious face, "Why did you two get married?"

His words were too sudden. Pei Luoluo was a little choked, but Xiao Yichen reacted quickly. He held Pei Luoluo's hand and pulled it towards his chest. Pei Luoluo also leaned against him. "I can't say that I love her and marry her, but I can guarantee that I will protect her after marrying her. As long as she is willing, I will give her everything she wants. This is also the only promise I can make to you. "

Xiao Yichen's words were very sincere, but these words sounded a little strange, but when he said those words, he looked at his daughter, and his daughter also curled her lips at him.

Alright, as long as you are happy. Pei's father thought in his heart. He did not ask any more questions. He nodded at Xiao Yichen with an affirmative look, and the dark clouds on his face faded away, leaving a smile that was as happy as Pei's mother's.

Pei Luoluo could not help but smile bitterly. Were all the people on the table acting? Each one of them was putting on an act. Was she the only one watching the show?

Was there even a need to guess Xiao Yichen's words? He was saying that there was no love in their marriage. There was only an illusory oath that could be torn at any time.

What was an oath? It was to promise the future and things that he was not confident of to comfort the other party or himself. In other words, it was nonsense!

What could a marriage without the foundation of love be? The passers-by on the other side of the road parted on bad terms in the end. Pei Luoluo was very clear about all these, but she was even more clear that she pushed herself to the top of the storm. If she wanted to come down and not drown, she would fall to her death. She had no choice. She also did not want to choose.

"Has everything been discussed? Allow me, this old hag, to say something?" As soon as Grandma Pei spoke, the originally quiet atmosphere in the private room became somewhat heavy.

Pei Luoluo could not help but sigh in her heart. Grandma's imposing manner was not inferior to Grandpa Xiao's.

"Mom!" Pei's father and Pei's mother lowered their voices and shouted at the same time. Grandma Pei turned a deaf ear and cleared her throat with a tone that did not allow rejection. "Is it okay?"

"Of course, Grandma, please speak." Xiao Yichen broke the deadlock first. He let go of Pei Luoluo's hand and walked to Grandma Pei's side to push her between him and Pei Luoluo. Then he sat down and looked like he was taking care of himself and teaching her.

"Xiao Yichen, Grandma has seen you grow up. Don't blame me for being ruthless. I know you don't love our Luo Luo, so don't force yourself to marry her and delay her. A person can promise many things to many people, but he can't promise that he can't take care of you for the rest of your life. However, he still had to force her to give it to someone who could only give it to the present but could not give it to the future. Xiao Yichen, why did you choose to be with you? But Luo Luo didn't have my permission. No one will be able to pull anyone out of the Pei Family!"

Grandma Pei finished her words in one breath. After that, she started coughing rapidly. Pei's father immediately brought her a cup of water and patted her back. Pei Luoluo stood by the side and helped her breathe down her chest with her hands. The table of people was instantly shocked by Grandma Pei's boldness and did not know what to say for a moment.
