Chapter 58: I Can't Promise

The sky outside the window looked a little gloomy, and the dark clouds slowly drifted in from afar, gradually blocking the daylight, which made people's mood a little suffocated. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Bei Xiaorou sat by the window, with one hand on her cheek, staring at the gradually dark sky outside the window in a daze, with a sense of sadness between her depressed eyebrows, maintaining this posture for a long time.

A buzzing sound in her pocket woke her up, she put down her hand and took out her phone, she glanced at the unfamiliar number on it, pursed her lips, and pressed the answer button.

Before she could speak, the cold and strong female voice on the other end passed a familiar smell into her eardrums, making her heart sink suddenly, "You come over immediately, remember, don't let my son know!" ā€

The words fell, and without giving her the slightest chance to answer, she hung up the phone directly.

Looking at the screen in the dark in a daze, Bei Xiaorou bit her lip, with a hint of dazedness in her eyes, and only came back to her senses after a long time, stood up suddenly, and hurriedly left a sentence to her brother at the counter, "Go out for a while", and walked out.

Looking at my sister, who looked confused all day today, at this time quickly pushed open the door of the store like the wind, stopped a taxi and sat in, Pei Minghui closed half of his mouth in a sneer, stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and a trace of confusion appeared on his worried face.

Taking a taxi to the carved hollow iron door of the Lei Mansion, Pei Xiaorou reached out and stroked her hair, pulled her dress, took a deep breath, pressed the doorbell, and stood at the entrance of the living room under the leadership of Uncle Li, who came to open the door.

Looking at Lei's father and Lei's mother sitting on the sofa, the two of them had more indifferent and sharp expressions on their faces than yesterday, which made the suffocating and depressing atmosphere in the living room feel a sense of imminent tension, and her hands hanging down at her side grabbed her skirt and trembled slightly.

Father Lei glanced at her lightly, the corners of his lips pursed with a stern arc, and the aura of not being angry and arrogant on his body came to his face, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the single sofa on the left, and said in a deep voice: "Sit!" ā€

The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and after Bei Xiaorou whispered thank you, she sat down, and the hands in front of her were tightly clasped together because of apprehension, so hard that her fingertips were slightly white.

On the other side, Lei Mu shot straight at her with disgusted eyes, she raised her eyes, looked at her indifferent and arrogant expression, and her heart tightened again.

Father Lei's delicate eyes looked at her slightly pale and delicate face, staring at her eyebrows, adding a trace of dissatisfaction to her indifferent expression, and a cold and majestic noise sounded in the quiet living room at this moment, "With your humble status, you don't even have the qualifications to step here, how can you be worthy of the son of my Lei family!" ā€

With such direct and sharp words, even though Pei Xiaorou had been prepared in her heart, she still felt a tingling pain in her heart, which once again aroused the inferiority complex that had been buried deeply.

Her face was slightly pale, her hands on her knees trembled, she held them tighter, she looked at Father Lei with trembling long eyelashes, she bit her lip and didn't reply, but a trace of injury under her eyes quietly leaked out.

At this time, Lei Mu bent down and pushed a bank card on the table in front of her, and then raised her eyes and looked at her mockingly, "This money should be used as a breakup fee between you and Ziqian!" Miss Pei, you have to know how to be content, understand?! ā€

Bei Xiaorou's face turned a little paler in an instant, her eyes were full of disbelief and looked at the dazzling bank card on the table, a feeling of humiliation surged from the depths of her heart, she bit her lip tightly, and slowly lowered her eyes.

Seeing her like this, the corners of Lei Mu's lips hooked coldly, and her contemptuous eyes added a touch of confidence.

Straightening her back, Bei Xiaorou raised her eyes, her clear eyes had a firm stubborn light, although her face was still slightly pale, her eyes no longer evaded, and she looked directly at Lei Mu, "Auntie, I won't ask for this money!" ā€

The smile on the corner of Lei Mu's lips froze, her face was extremely ugly, and her eyes were cold with anger, and she glared at her fiercely, "You have gained enough benefits from my son, don't be ignorant!" ā€

Her sarcastic and insulting words made Bei Xiaorou's face stiffen, her hands on her knees tightly clutched her dress, restraining the slight anger that surged in her heart, looking at Lei Mu's undisguised contempt, the earlier hesitation and nervousness dissipated.

She pursed her lips, "Auntie, money can't buy love, what I love is Ziqian, not his money!" ā€

As if she had heard some joke, Lei Mu sneered, and looked at her with even more disgust. And Father Lei, who had been silent all the time, frowned tightly when he heard her words, and his eyes sank suddenly, "My son is not only the president of Thunder, but also the only heir of my Lei Group!" And you? How can you help him in his career? What qualifications do you have to say you love him?! ā€

His accusations and contempt were like a heavy blow, slamming heavily on Bei Xiaorou's heart, her face was as pale as snow, and the stinging sensation of constriction and inferiority complex in her heart were stacked on top of each other, almost drowning her.

Her hands trembled, she bit her lips as white as paper, her eyes darkened for a moment, and she was lost and confused.

The identity gap between them is an existence that she can never erase, and it is also a gap that she can't stand beside him with her head held high.

The hesitation in her heart made her confused, she was like a lonely boat lost in the rough sea, lost her guidance, and was about to be drowned by the tide of inferiority.

In the midst of this suffocation, the man's deep black eyes with tenderness suddenly appeared in his mind, and his lost and restless heart suddenly felt a firm and warm power surge, making her weak and gentle appearance, and the stubborn and persistent heart regained its courage again.

The trembling hands slowly calmed down, she took a deep breath, stood up from the sofa, her clear eyes flashed with determination, and she looked at the two of them without the slightest flinch, and the soft noise carried a desperate insistence, "Uncle and aunt, I know that my identity is not worthy of Ziqian, but I don't want to leave him because of low self-esteem without working hard!" I'm sorry, but I can't agree to your request! ā€

She reversed her cowardly appearance just now, and the words she said made Lei Mu's face even more pale, and her eyes looked at her as if she wanted to swallow her alive, sharp and cold. And Father Lei's face also sank, but a glimmer of light flashed in his cold and sharp eyes.

There was silence in the living room, and the atmosphere was eerie and oppressive.

Seeing that the two of them looked uncertain, Bei Xiaorou's heart was a little suffocated, she bit her lip, with some guilt in her eyes, and bent slightly and said, "Uncle and aunt, if there is nothing else, I will leave first!" ā€

Raising her eyes to look at the two who pursed her lips and said nothing, her eyes darkened, she exhaled softly, and with loss, she turned around and walked out.

It seems that the thick dark clouds hovering overhead, bringing a gloomy feeling of suffocation, make people's mood even heavier. Walking along the winding road, it blew lightly from time to time, bringing a damp breeze that blew through the broken hair on Pei Xiaorou's forehead.

She walked slowly forward with her head down, and a red Porsche slowly drove in front of her, and with a sudden horn sound, she was slightly startled and looked up.
