My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my sister, and I got married to him in a flash; he went crazy.
Chapter 44 He's angry
Jiang Shutong wiped her hands on her apron and was stunned when she saw Pei Yichen's message.
She picked up her phone and tapped on the screen. "You know I went to write a letter of understanding for Xu Mingze?"
Jiang Shutong thought about it; he was the one who called the police, so it was probably normal for him to know.
She quickly explained, "I'm sorry, I had no choice. Xu Mingze's mother suffered a heart attack after her treatment and was rushed to the hospital. She can't take another blow like that..."
His parents treated me very well, even better than my own parents, so I couldn't bear to send their only son to prison...
Pei Yichen: [You don't need to explain to me.]
Jiang Shutong: ...
She could feel Pei Yichen's anger even through the screen.
Still very angry.
-
Pei Yichen didn't return until 11 p.m.
After unlocking the door with my fingerprint, I went inside and immediately saw a table of dishes that had been left to cool on the bed, and a woman fast asleep on the sofa.
She was curled up on the sofa, hugging a pillow, wearing a Doraemon nightgown. The hem of the nightgown reached her upper thighs, revealing her slender and straight legs. Her bare feet looked exceptionally white in the dim light.
Seeing the woman sleeping so soundly and without any guard up, Pei Yichen's coldness softened a bit.
The food on the table looked untouched, so she waited hungry for him to come home for dinner.
Pei Yichen walked to the woman's side and looked at her face, which was eight parts similar to the one he had been longing for. He reached out his hand, somewhat lost in thought, wanting to touch the beauty mark under the woman's left eye.
Just as his hand was about to touch her face, the woman slowly opened her eyes.
Pei Yichen recoiled as if he had been burned, abruptly pulling his hand back and turning to go back to his room.
Jiang Shutong rubbed her eyes and sat up, calling out to him, "Pei Yichen, you're back. Want some late-night snack? I'll heat up some food for you..."
"No need," the man said coldly, and then went straight into the study.
The door slammed shut.
Jiang Shutong felt a little helpless. She rubbed her rumbling stomach and could only go to the kitchen to heat up some food for herself.
She didn't want to waste it.
After heating it up, she sat at the dining table at 11 p.m., facing such a large table of dishes, and felt that she couldn't eat it all by herself.
Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration and thought of something.
She got up, opened the door, and rang the doorbell of apartment 1502 next door.
Li Kai, who had just come out of the shower, slumped instantly when he heard the doorbell.
The CEO asked him to work overtime again in the middle of the night.
He's become somewhat agitated by the doorbell now.
Despite his dissatisfaction, he didn't dare to delay for even a second and quickly went out to open the door.
When he saw Jiang Shutong standing outside, he was immediately stunned. "Sister-in-law? It's so late, is something the matter?"
Jiang Shutong smiled faintly. "Li Kai, I cooked a big meal tonight, but Pei Yichen isn't eating it. Could you help me with some of it? It would be a waste to throw it away..."
Given his relationship with Pei Yichen, it would be the same if she rewarded him as well.
Li Kai had just smelled the aroma of food wafting from somewhere inside the house, and his mouth was already watering.
Now that the president's wife has extended an invitation, he certainly can't refuse.
Five minutes later, Li Kai sat down at the dining table, looking at the colorful and delicious dishes, and couldn't help but swallow.
"Sister-in-law, you cooked so many dishes all by yourself! Your cooking skills are amazing!"
He picked up a cola chicken wing, put it in his mouth, and his eyes lit up immediately. He exclaimed, "Mmm, so delicious! Sister-in-law, Brother Pei is in for a treat!"
Jiang Shutong chuckled, "If you like it, eat more. I'll cook every night from now on. If you don't mind, you can come and eat with us in the future..."
After all, it's quite troublesome for him to cook when he lives alone, and eating takeout every day isn't hygienic.
A look of joy flashed across Li Kai's eyes. What a wonderful thing!
He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, how could I accept this?"
The CEO will probably be unhappy if he comes over for meals every day.
Jiang Shutong placed a piece of pork rib on his plate. "Oh, it's nothing, don't be shy. With your relationship with Pei Yichen, the three of us will be family from now on."
Ever since Pei Yichen saved her life last night, she has been determined to repay him properly.
But now, let alone repaying him, she has also angered Pei Yichen.
So she should try to please Li Kai more now, and get him to whisper sweet nothings in her ear.
Li Kai: ?
There was something strange about what the president's wife said.
He talks like he's best buddies with the CEO, but in reality, he's just a lowly working man.
He smiled but didn't say anything more, instead burying his head in his rice.
It must be said, the CEO's wife is a really good cook.
Seeing him eat so happily, Jiang Shutong felt a great sense of accomplishment.
She had little appetite, resting her chin on her hand, and said with some distress, "I made Pei Yichen angry. What should I do to make him feel better? Like, what does he like to eat, or what gift should I give him to make him calm down?"
As the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to him, and he who takes another's money is bound to him," so Li Kai naturally spoke frankly and without reservation about the matter.
He revealed all of Pei Yichen's preferences: "Brother Pei doesn't eat scallions, ginger, garlic, or cilantro. He prefers light flavors and enjoys Cantonese cuisine."
"If he needs to work through the night, he usually drinks a cup of Blue Mountain coffee."
Jiang Shutong opened the notes app on her phone, wrote everything down, and then asked, "By the way, what are his hobbies?"
"His hobbies are fitness and playing tennis. He goes for a morning run early every day, and plays tennis when he has free time on weekends."
……
Li Kai said a lot, without holding back at all, treating her as a "love rival".
"Thank you so much." Jiang Shutong was very grateful to him and remembered everything. "If possible, I hope you can put in a good word for me with him, so he won't be angry with me anymore..."
Li Kai was somewhat flattered. He was just a lowly assistant. What could he possibly say to the president?
"Sister-in-law, I should be saying this to you. I hope you'll put in a good word for me with Brother Pei..."
Jiang Shutong: ...
Is he worried about being dumped by Pei Yichen?
That makes sense, though. Pei Yichen is so handsome and has such a great physique, he must be very popular in the gay community. It's normal for him to feel insecure.
She patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely put in a good word for you with him."
After saying that, she comforted him, "Don't worry, knowing him so well, you'll definitely treat him the best. No one else can compare to you..."
Speaking of this, Li Kai nodded confidently.
That's because he had worked for the CEO for several years and knew all about his habits. No one really knew the CEO better than him.
An hour later, Li Kai let out a satisfied burp and put down his chopsticks.
Jiang Shutong kindly advised, "It's so late, why don't you stay here tonight instead of going back?"
