Chapter 18: This is your punishment. This is the surprise you gave me, the one that made…
Pei Jiqing feel overwhelmed by the Alpha's pheromones for the first time. It was so overwhelming that he couldn't breathe, his fingertips felt weak, a chill ran down his spine, and his face turned pale.
He was terrified from the bottom of his heart, tears streaming down his face almost uncontrollably.
It wasn't like this the first time Chen Huixing released her pheromones in his presence. While they were highly aggressive and overbearing, it wasn't like this—Pei Jiqing felt like someone was pinching his neck and pressing him into an ice cave. His internal organs were frozen, and he felt suffocated by the oppression.
Chen Huixing's tone was a touch impatient. "You don't know? Pei Jiqing, the most important thing you should do now is tell me everything, tell me exactly what happened." Chen Huixing
watched his wife, usually indecisive, burst into tears. Her pretty face was smeared with tears, and she looked like she'd been bullied and stunned. Her face was filled with confusion and pitiful expression, as if she had no idea how wrong she had been. Chen Huixing's Adam's apple moved, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Perhaps his secretary was right, and that he doted on him too much.
Although Chen Huixing disagreed, he felt that this level was not too bad.
He was only giving him what he could.
Pei Jiqing didn't ask for the stars in the sky or anything else out of reach. Chen Huixing
suddenly remembered his assistant's muttering a few days ago, "You spoil your wife too much," and his back teeth itched.
Perhaps it was all instigated by his flashy new friend. Pei Jiqing was staggering, teetering on the verge of collapse. His usually pampered, rosy face was now dull, gray, like a wilted flower. His lower lip was bitten raw.
Chen Huixing withdrew his pheromones, thinking it was indeed too late today. He had lost control.
His tone remained unbending, stern and cold: "Think about it tonight and tell me everything tomorrow, or there will be serious consequences."
As Shen Huixing was about to leave, Pei Jiqing asked, "...Husband, will you hand me over?" Chen Huixing replied:
"If I do, there's still room for maneuver. I'll sleep in the study tonight."
After Shen Huixing slammed the door shut, Pei Jiqing slumped to the floor.
The last glimmer of light was swallowed by the door, leaving only a crack.
Pei Jiqing could hear his heartbeat pounding against his ears. Chen Huixing would definitely hand him over.
He took the corruption case so seriously that Chen Huixing's eyes were bloodshot from working on it. He was handling it under almost all the pressure. Even the retired Liang Yi was disturbed to remind Chen Huixing to show mercy when possible, which shows how many people he had touched.
Now, after investigating, the case has led to his own bed, and now his own Omega is "involved".
He must be very angry and disappointed.
Pei Jiqing looked at their wedding photo not far away. In the crystal frame, the part of Chen Huixing's hand around his waist still had a warm luster. He felt a sting on his lower lip and realized that he had bitten the skin. The taste of rust spread on the tip of his tongue.
He slowly stood up, holding on to the back of the sofa. His kneecap felt like it had been pulled. The echo of Chen Huixing's door slamming was still vibrating on his eardrums. It was like being immersed in deep water and listening to the voices on the shore. Everything around him was muffled and unreal.
His right hand unconsciously clenched at the fabric of his chest. Though there was no wound, aching throbbed with pain.
Pei Jiqing's mind went blank. So this was what it felt like to endure Chen Huixing's wrath. For a moment, he thought his heart would stop beating.
So this was what it felt like to be glared at by Chen Huixing with a dirty look.
Pei Jiqing barely slept all night. He'd wanted to rush into the study and tell Chen Huixing everything several times. He'd gotten up several times, even reaching the study door, but he'd never dared to open it.
A marriage wrapped in lies wasn't easy. Pei Jiqing dragged it along, like carrying a rock across a river. Even when his shell was nearly crushed, he kept moving forward, insisting on doing it.
He worried daily, lest he be discovered.
But even if he became Chen Huixing's ideal omega, living every day like walking a tightrope, afraid that a single breath would expose his lies, did Chen Huixing really love him even a little?
Probably not.
Pei Jiqing used to have the fantasy that day after day, Chen Huixing would eventually fall in love with him, and would forgive all his lies out of love, and they would eventually live happily together.
But later, the lies piled up more and more, and Pei Jiqing began to feel that he did not deserve to be loved. Who would fall in love with a liar who was full of lies?
The next day, Pei Jiqing was in a very bad state. Chen Huixing was already eating breakfast, and Pei Jiqing sat across from him. Pei Jiqing, who usually looked radiant even when "making" breakfast for Chen Huixing, looked very tired and haggard today. His hair was a little messy, and his pajamas were wrinkled. The collar of his pajamas was almost tilted to his shoulders, revealing his smooth collarbone.
He was a person who should have applied hairspray and perfume by this time of year, but now he was as wilted as a cabbage leaf hit by frost. The two dark circles under his eyes were particularly eye-catching in the morning light, and his eyelashes were still stained with moisture that had not been wiped clean, as if he had been tortured by something for most of the night.
His eyes were red, more like he had cried all night.
Chen Huixing asked everyone else to stay away.
"Have you decided whether to tell me or not?"
Pei Jiqing lowered his eyes, his fingers tugging at the buttons of his pajamas: "...I gave the money to my dad and them."
Chen Huixing knew that Pei Jiqing had a pair of vampire parents, and he also knew that the Pei family's parents were a bottomless pit that could never be filled. Including when they got married, they asked for a huge amount of money, and he signed the check without blinking. He didn't interfere much afterwards. He thought Pei Jiqing would handle the relationship with them well, and with him around, the Pei family would not go too far no matter what.
He always thought that since Pei Jiqing married into the Shen family, she should learn to draw a clear line with the vampire couple. Even if Pei Jiqing gave them money, Chen Huixing would not say anything, at most he would think of it as a filial piety to them.
But why Pei Jiqing would use other people's money to support his parents was completely incomprehensible.
Chen Huixing looked at the trembling eyelashes of the person opposite him, and he couldn't understand why Pei Jiqing secretly accepted other people's money.
Chen Huixing dropped his knife onto his plate and uttered just two words: "Reason?"
This left Pei Jiqing speechless. All his excuses were unacceptable, so no matter what explanation he offered, it wouldn't pass muster with Shen Huixing.
"They asked me for it... and I... gave it to them."
Chen Huixing suddenly felt that he didn't understand his Omega. They were together almost every day now, doing all sorts of intimate things, but he still had secrets from him. At that moment, the Omega's drooping eyelashes cast a strange shadow under his eyes, like a dense forest that he had never set foot in.
Chen Huixing didn't even spend as much time with Pei Jiqing as he did with his own parents.
He didn't like this feeling; they were supposed to be the closest people in the world.
Chen Huixing knocked on the table, urging him to eat faster, and then followed him out.
Pei Jiqing reluctantly ate two bites of toast and asked where they were going.
Chen Huixing said he was going with him. It wasn't
until he got out of the car that Pei Jiqing noticed that Chen Huixing had taken him to the hospital for hair and other tests.
Pei Jiqing was furious and said aggrievedly, "I didn't do anything wrong! Are you suspecting me of drug use?"
Chen Huixing frowned. "You refuse to tell me. I can only think of things you're keeping secret from me that cost money. Everything depends on the report. Your credibility with me is very low now."
Pei Jiqing thought Chen Huixing was ridiculous.
"I never interfered with your friendships before, but now it seems your ability to make friends is seriously flawed. You might not have considered that they might lead you into something you shouldn't do."
Pei Jiqing felt like he was about to laugh out loud. He was with him every day like this, so if anything was wrong with him, Chen Huixing would definitely notice it immediately. He was simply trying to humiliate him.
Besides, Chen Huixing was often away from home. If Pei Jiqing hadn't made some friends, he would have been depressed long ago.
Pei Jiqing, feeling a pang of frustration, cooperated with all the tests.
When the results came back, everything was normal. Chen Huixing looked over them and asked the staff if he had recently become addicted to any new drugs, but he had no specific symptoms.
Pei Jiqing was furious and pulled him away, his face flushing. "Chen Huixing, if you keep doing this, I'm really going to hate you!"
Chen Huixing looked at Pei Jiqing, finding his words unbelievable.
"Do you hate me?" Chen Huixing heard the sound squeezed out of his throat like sandpaper scraping against rust.
Pei Jiqing actually hated him? That was crazy.
Pei Jiqing had never said such words to him before.
He always rubbed his face against his palm like a wet cat, with water droplets on his eyelashes, and said softly and intimately, "Husband, I love you," "I miss you so much," and so on. But now he has learned to scratch people with his claws.
Who taught him to say such words? Maybe it was that Alpha named Wei Ji. He really made him uncomfortable at first sight.
Pei Jiqing looked at Chen Huixing's disbelief as he looked at him, probably because he didn't believe he would resist.
He really couldn't figure out who could suspect that the person next to him was taking drugs at the first moment. Was he so bad in Shen Huixing's heart?
The blue light of the testing room reflected in Pei Jiqing's pupils, flashing anger, which made Chen Huixing's temples throb.
Chen Huixing thought that if Pei Jiqing was so excited when talking about his friend Liang Yi, then all the reasons could be attributed to the fact that he had made bad friends, or it could be that people like Wei Ji deliberately set up a trap for him. Pei Jiqing looked innocent and gullible, and easily believed anyone, so he became their target.
This was Pei Jiqing's weakness, and it was discovered in time now. It would be good for him to intervene before serious consequences occurred.
Chen Huixing: "Okay, since you told me that the money Mai Congxin transferred to you came from selling things, show me the evidence."
How could Pei Jiqing show me the evidence? They didn't sign a contract at all, and Pei Jiqing didn't want to leave any evidence of him selling those things.
Now Pei Jiqing just had a hard time saying it, and his momentum just now weakened.
Pei Jiqing thought that if Chen Huixing thought he was vain, then so be it.
In short, his image in Shen Huixing's heart had never been good, and Pei Jiqing always made things worse.
Pei Jiqing's shoulders suddenly slumped, and he managed only to manage, "Honey, I really didn't do anything wrong. I just got tired of those things, so I wanted to replace them. I was afraid of you scolding me, and then my dad and the others suddenly asked me for money, so I gave it all to them."
In short, Chen Huixing probably thought he was vain and foolish.
But he didn't care anymore.
Every time he thought life was getting better, fate would always hit him with a stick and tell him he was overthinking it.
Chen Huixing: "Why are those jewels still with you?"
Pei Jiqing: "...I...I couldn't bear to buy them back. Anyway, the return of the jewels has nothing to do with Mai Congxin."
Chen Huixing: "You're lying, Pei Jiqing. Did you think I wouldn't do anything to you, so you could just brush it off? This case implicates fifteen military officials, and I sent them all to prison. If I protected my own Omega, do you know what they would say about me?"
Now everyone's eyes were on Shen Huixing.
Chen Huixing had been suppressing it for the past two days; it was only a matter of time before it would come out. So many people were watching him.
Pei Jiqing felt that he was really wronged: "But I really didn't..."
Chen Huixing put one hand on Pei Jiqing's shoulder and held his chin with the other hand: "If you just took his money and didn't do anything for him, you still have a brain. If you did it..."
Pei Jiqing's brain was working fast. It would be too bad if Wei Ji was involved at this time. He nodded and said: "He wanted me to introduce someone to you, but I didn't do it..."
Chen Huixing: "Don't dare?"
Pei Jiqing lowered his eyes and said: "I don't want to. I really just want him to help me sell things. I also returned the extra money he gave me." Chen Huixing
suddenly tightened the grip on the back of his neck. Looking at Pei Jiqing who had done something wrong, he had the urge to strangle him to death, but he just tightened his strength and said: "At least you still have a brain. I won't cover up for you in this matter."
Pei Jiqing knew that it was really difficult for Chen Huixing to be in this position.
Chen Huixing: "Resign."
Pei Jiqing looked up in disbelief and said, "Why? Mai Congxin is just trying to get me."
Chen Huixing whispered in his ear, "But you're stuck. Do you think you can still appear on the big screen just because you did something wrong? Xu Ze is right. I shouldn't have let you appear in public a long time ago. At least it would have saved me a lot of trouble."
Pei Jiqing: "I will apologize."
Chen Huixing said, "This is your punishment."
Pei Jiqing was in disbelief. Pei Jiqing was sacrificing his career for his.
But Pei Jiqing didn't even have the right to say no, because he was indeed in the wrong.
*
A week later, a breaking news story about the corruption case emerged: Executive Shen's Omega was on the list of bribe recipients.
The evidence was irrefutable.
Public opinion was immediately distorted.
Chen Huixing slammed his tablet down on the desk with great force. Pei Jiqing's name was on the "bribery list," and rumors of Executive Shen's wife accepting bribes continued to spread.
Pei Jiqing curled up on the sofa, watching the exploding messages on his phone, then tossed it aside.
Chen Huixing was making drastic changes to the old staff, but his own family members were collecting money at home.
Everyone was watching to see if Chen Huixing would sacrifice his family for the sake of justice or let the matter go.
But the next day, Chen Huixing held a press conference with Pei Jiqing to apologize to the public. It was the first time the two of them were together under the spotlight.
The reporters who came wanted to ask questions, but they suddenly fell silent when they met Chen Huixing's sharp gaze.
Pei Jiqing explained the whole story of the money clearly. It was because the contract was not properly negotiated that the source of the money was unknown, and he had never done anything for the sake of collecting money.
Pei Jiqing was dressed plainly under the camera, without his former flamboyance, like a butterfly with broken wings. He stood up and bowed: "I will suspend my work as a host and reflect on it. This is my mistake. Please don't spread some false information."
This was the last thing Pei Jiqing said to get Chen Huixing to agree: not to resign, but to suspend his work.
The specific time is uncertain.
It could be a year, or it could be a lifetime.
Chen Huixing's attitude is to fight the case all the way.
After the press conference, Pei Jiqing went home and locked himself in the room, not seeing anyone.
Chen Huixing said to Sister Zhang: "Please bring him the meal later."
Sister Zhang nodded in agreement, and then watched Chen Huixing sitting on the sofa for a long time before going out.
Pei Jiqing stayed at home for a few days, sleeping until he woke up naturally every day, and not going downstairs except for eating. Naturally, Chen Huixing would not go home, and when he did go home,
he would sleep in the study. This was the first time they had officially separated in five years of marriage. Pei Jiqing was not used to it at first. Except for the first two years, Pei Jiqing slept alone every night. He was already familiar with the body temperature of another person next to him.
Now it's empty.
They had a big fight a few days ago.
Pei Jiqing could focus on Chen Huixing in other things, but he couldn't understand why he had to sacrifice his job. It was clear that it was not considered as accepting bribes in the end.
But when it was discovered that the person who bid on the item was Wei Ji, Chen Huixing said with a very grim expression: "Is this why you hid part of it from me?"
Pei Jiqing was speechless. Chen Huixing asked Wei Ji what he wanted him to do.
Chen Huixing: "Did he also want you to introduce him to someone? Is that why I said you have a problem with making friends? I told you he has a shady background, why did you still get close to him?"
Shady background? Isn't he just from the lower city?
Pei Jiqing said: "He is not. He just had some other reasons to give those things..."
Chen Huixing looked at Pei Jiqing as if he were the most pitiful person in the world: "Do you think he invested because he liked your show?"
Pei Jiqing understood: "You mean I'm useless? Everyone who approaches me is because of you?"
Chen Huixing: "...isn't that right?"
Pei Jiqing felt that Chen Huixing was really arrogant and really selfish.
Chen Huixing thought he was stupid.
They were now at a loss for words!
That day was the first time Pei Jiqing had slammed the door shut.
Old Yu sent him a message saying that he really wouldn't come.
Pei Jiqing said I need to reflect on myself at home.
Lao Yu said quietly on the other end of the phone: "I watched your press conference. It was so emotional that it seemed like you were going to cry the next moment."
Pei Jiqing sat cross-legged with a box of ice cream in his arms, looking at the lawn outside the window. He took a big bite and said: "Thank you for your comments. Executive Shen not only took away my job, but also my pocket money. Now I am just a salted fish lying at home and being rubbed by others."
Lao Yu said with pity: "Now the host of your program has been replaced by his relative by the director. You are making wedding dresses for others. However, your reputation on the Internet is indeed not very good. Your Executive Shen was right to let you stay at home. It is better for you to stay at home, otherwise I am worried that you will be pelted with rotten eggs."
Pei Jiqing instantly became energetic and said: "Why should I give my program to him! That empty-headed relative, hang up first."
No!
Pei Jiqing fumbled for his tablet on the sofa. His account had, of course, been confiscated. He used Sister Zhang's account to check online. Almost everyone online was criticizing him. Chen Huixing's group of dream boys and dream girls actually said he had affected Chen Huixing's career.
Pei Jiqing sneered at Sister Zhang, "How did I affect his career? I've lost my career now, and I'm still feeling wronged. I didn't do anything!"
He also said that his good looks were useless. He had played a good hand badly. He used to show off his affection online every day, and he had long been fed up. Now that he was infamous, Executive Shen would definitely kick him out one day. And who among them knew if the evidence was fabricated? After all, they all had to be proud. Who knew the truth? The wealthy family was in chaos.
Pei Jiqing was furious: "Kicked me out? If you have the guts, tell me when Shen Huixing likes you. Your whole family is fake!"
Sister Zhang quickly stepped forward, took the tablet and said, "Madam, why are you angry with these people? Take a deep breath. They are just jealous of you. You should be loving with Mr. Shen and have a child next year to piss them off to death."
When it came to children, Pei Jiqing suddenly felt like he was poured with a bucket of cold water. He sat on the sofa, hugged his knees and muttered, "Why? He knows I didn't do anything. Doesn't everything I did mean nothing?"
Why did everything about him seem so insignificant in the eyes of Shen Huixing?
Who would have thought that appearing on the same screen with Shen Huixing would be like this.
Pei Jiqing was angry for a while, but soon Wei Ji contacted him.
As soon as the call was connected, Wei Ji said, "You must be feeling very sad right now."
Pei Jiqing, not having the energy to respond, said, "If you're here to gloat over someone's misfortune, then let 's not talk any more.
" Wei Ji sighed and said, "Jiqing, this is the difference between Shen Huixing and me. Even if I lose everything, I won't let you give up what you want, leave him, and come back to me."
Pei Jiqing said, "Don't you know what I want?"
Wei Ji: "I wasn't strong enough before, but now I can protect you. I've always been waiting for you."
Pei Jiqing: "Wei Ji, I don't know how many times I have to tell you that we can't go back to the way we were."
Wei Ji said on the other end, "I'll prove it to you. Only I can be with you until the end."
When a person is in high spirits, few people congratulate him. But when he's in a good mood, even a scoundrel like Pei Lu comes to greet him.
Pei Lu said, "What a pity I'm not in Ling City right now. Hahaha, otherwise I really should come to see you now."
The music blaring from his end made it easy to guess where he was having fun.
Pei Jiqing felt the Pei family was truly shameless. "Aren't you afraid of having your hands chopped off?"
Pei Liang said, "Don't you have us? My mom said you should give us all this. Otherwise, do you think a bastard like you would have the chance to marry Chen Huixing? If it weren't for my gland loss, I really wouldn't mind marrying him. He's not my type, but sleeping with him isn't a big deal."
"How dare you."
"You get upset just by saying something. My mom said you love him, so this is where you've been completely manipulated. If you treated him as a simple meal ticket, you'd be much more relaxed. You think you can rest easy just by taking our house? No, if you push us too hard, we'll move in with you."
Pei Jiqing was truly shocked by the depths of human nature. "I seriously doubt whether it was you or me who lived in the Lower City District."
Pei Liang said, "Oh, you think it's that easy to get rid of your Lower City identity."
Pei Jiqing blocked his number.
His chest heaved.
The Pei family originally wanted to squeeze out all his value and then throw him away. As long as Pei Jiqing was still by Shen Huixing's side, as long as Pei Jiqing cared about him, they could threaten him with all kinds of reasons.
Unless he didn't care about Shen Huixing at all.
Pei Jiqing lowered his head and hugged himself tighter. Mom, he was so tired. Is this the life she wanted in the first place?
The prejudices between people are so deep. He lives in disguise and finds that happiness is so fragile.
Pei Jiqing reflexively raised the smile arc that he had practiced thousands of times, but his temples suddenly hurt. He vaguely saw countless reflections of himself in the floor-to-ceiling windows - each screaming silently in a delicate shell.
Pei Jiqing was depressed for a few days, but life still had to go on. He couldn't just give up like this. This was not his style. The only person he could rely on was Chen Huixing.
Sister Zhang said: "Madam, why don't you call Mr. Shen."
He took the initiative to call Chen Huixing and asked him if he would go home for dinner today.
The secretary who answered the phone said wait a moment.
When Xu Ze was about to give it to Chen Huixing who was standing beside him.
Chen Huixing stretched out his hand and asked him to wait a moment.
Xu Ze: "…………" Who is the person who asked if anyone was looking for him several times a day?
After a while, Pei Jiqing heard Chen Huixing on the other end asking him what was wrong?
Pei Jiqing said: "...Are you busy?" Chen
Huixing: "Yeah."
Pei Jiqing heard Chen Huixing's very calm tone and thought to himself: "...You haven't been home for a long time."
Chen Huixing: "What for? To see someone sulking?"
Pei Jiqing wanted to hang up the phone at that moment. Sister Zhang quickly picked up the phone: "Mr. Chen, the wife made your favorite soup today and prepared a surprise for you to come back?" Chen
Huixing said reservedly: "I'll think about it."
After Chen Huixing hung up the phone, he asked Xu Ze: "Have I finished my work today? "Is it?"
Xu Ze: "...There are still a few military documents that need your personal review."
Chen Huixing: "Bring the important ones here, and the unimportant ones tomorrow."
Xu Ze said: "...Okay."
Pei Jiqing said angrily: "What's that tone of his? If he doesn't come back, then don't come back. Am I begging him?"
Sister Zhang said: "Madam, don't be angry. Don't you also want your husband to come back? It's so cold and lonely in such a big house."
Pei Jiqing: "Does it make any difference whether he's here or not?"
It was exactly seven o'clock when Chen Huixing returned home. Sister Zhang pushed Pei Jiqing towards the door.
Pei Jiqing bravely stepped forward and took Chen Huixing's coat, then helped him unbutton his shirt. Chen Huixing looked down at Pei Jiqing's face: "What did you do today?"
Pei Jiqing: "At home."
Chen Huixing: "Why didn't you go out?"
Pei Jiqing: "My friends are all questionable, so I don't want people to talk about it."
There was a hint of resentment in his tone,
but it was clear that Pei Jiqing's anger had at least subsided.
Chen Huixing watched Pei Jiqing's slightly pursed lips. His lips were moist and plump, as if glazed with honey. He must have been biting his lower lip a lot lately, and the scab where it broke was a faint red.
Pei Jiqing's whole person easily conjured up images of eroticism.
Pei Jiqing was dressed in light-colored home clothes, her waist cinched by an apron, making her look soft and beautiful. Chen Huixing's gaze lingered for a few seconds. He subconsciously followed Pei Jiqing forward. Pei Jiqing pushed him out of the kitchen. Naturally, he noticed Chen Huixing's gaze and said shyly, "You go out first. Don't come in." Chen
Huixing's eyes fixed on the figure in the kitchen, his throat trembling.
Sister Zhang had very consciously withdrawn after serving the dishes. Pei Jiqing didn't know what to say to Shen Huixing. He could sense the stirring pheromones and the somewhat aggressive gaze from Chen Huixing.
Pei Jiqing, after all, was an Omega marked by Chen Huixing, and he could sense the pheromones stirring in the air, creating a dangerous signal.
If possible, Chen Huixing actually didn't want to finish the meal and wanted Pei Jiqing to carry him upstairs.
Pei Jiqing felt that the atmosphere was really weird, so he turned on the TV and played a music program, with soft and sentimental sounds.
Since he decided to make peace, Pei Jiqing took out a bottle of red wine and poured it for himself and Shen Huixing. He would never let his program fall into the hands of that person with connections.
Pei Jiqing handed the glass to Chen Huixing, then picked it up and clinked it with him, and drank the red wine in one gulp. The next second, Pei Jiqing was picked up by Chen Huixing and placed on the dining table. The Alpha's palm seemed to sink into Pei Jiqing's waist through his clothes, and the silver cutlery made a tiny vibration on the oak dining table.
Chen Huixing bent his knees and brushed the tip of his nose against the side of Pei Jiqing's face.
Chen Huixing pressed his palm hard against the slight bulge at the back of Pei Jiqing's neck, a fierce and explicit signal. The pulsating rhythm beneath his fingertips sent the Omega into a state of panic. Pei Jiqing suddenly pulled his hand back and pressed the remote, causing the channel to jump. Just then, entertainment news broke about Wei Ji, a rising star at Qingyu Technology, openly declaring his love for the wife of an executive on the platform, clearly intending to steal her away.
He displayed the transaction records from the original auction, revealing his desire to collect anything Pei Jiqing owned.
Some asked him what he was up to.
Wei Ji replied, "I'm pursuing Pei Jiqing. Don't you understand?"
Some said, "That's immoral; they're a legal couple. "
Wei Ji's response was even more shameless, saying that some people don't cherish their own treasures, while others do. What law is being a mistress against?
While it's certainly not illegal, it's certainly shameless.
Chen Huixing said, "This is the surprise you gave me. Let me see another man openly declaring his love for my Omega."
The passion that had just surged was instantly extinguished by Shen Huixing's withdrawal.
