Chapter 9: Early Widowhood

In the evening, there were only Mu Xi and Pei Xingbei at the dinner table.

Seeing that the door of the study on the second floor was still closed, Mu Xi couldn't help but ask the housekeeper: "Doesn't Pei Fengnian come out to eat?" ”

The housekeeper took the dish and replied respectfully: "The young master just said that he won't eat at night." ”

"How can this work?" Mu Xi put down his chopsticks, "Prepare a meal, I'll deliver it later!" ”

How can you do without eating at night, and you are not afraid of hunger and stomach problems! Mu Xi silently slandered in his heart.

The housekeeper hurriedly arrived, it was the first time he had seen Mu Xi care about the young master so strongly.

Pei Xingbei, who was sitting on the side, buried his head in eating his own food, and there were ripples in his heart.

It was also the first time he saw his mother caring about his father, in the past, his parents lived in the same house, but the two were like strangers, neither of them would talk to each other, his mother was not at home all day, and he only came home in the middle of the night every day, and his father stayed in the study all day long, and did not communicate with anyone at all.

Pei Xingbei looked at Mu Xi on the side with his spare eyes, and his side face was still as delicate as before, which seemed to have faded away from arrogance and arrogance, and was replaced by gentleness and a little laziness.

He likes moms like that.

After eating, Mu Xi rubbed Pei Xingbei's little head, and his voice was gentle: "Xingbei, let's go study after eating." ”

Pei Xingbei nodded, and obediently returned to the room to study.

He also secretly thought in his heart that he must study hard, so that his mother would seem to like him more.

These Mu Xi naturally didn't know, at this time she was carrying a meal, and came to the door of Pei Fengnian's study, full of thoughts about wanting to attack Pei Fengnian and reach the peak of life.

Knock Knock Knock ———

Pei Fengnian in the room frowned, didn't he tell the housekeeper not to disturb him if he didn't eat dinner?

"Enter."

Hearing Pei Fengnian's voice, Mu Xi immediately opened the door, walked in with a big grin, and put the food on the table.

Pei Fengnian looked at the food, looked up at Mu Xi again, and frowned: "Didn't I tell the housekeeper not to eat?" ”

"I know!" Mu Xi laid out the meal and said to Pei Fengnian seriously, "It's not good for you to skip dinner at night like this!" Beware of stomach problems when hungry! ”

Listening to Mu Xi's words, Pei Fengnian's brows furrowed even tighter: "I don't need it." ”

Mu Xi was not happy when she heard it, she cared about him!

"I care about you! I'm not afraid you're going to get sick from hunger! Mu Xi pouted.

Pei Fengnian rubbed his eyebrows, not understanding why Mu Xi suddenly changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

He raised his head and said, "Are you short of money?" Or are you in trouble? ”

Pei Fengnian really couldn't think of why Mu Xi suddenly became like this to care about him, either because he was in trouble outside, or because he was short of money, besides, he really couldn't think of why Mu Xi became like this.

Mu Xi's eyes widened: "You just look at me like that?" I care about you, and you're not happy anymore! I'm not afraid I'll be widowed in advance! ”

As soon as these words came out, Pei Fengnian's face darkened, and he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Mu Xi with a heavy gaze.

Mu Xi was chilled by him, but he still stiffened: "How... How? I... I... Is there anything wrong with what I'm saying! You work so hard all day that you don't even eat! I'm not afraid that one day if you go, I'll be a widow! What are you going to do with me and Xingbei! How bitter it is for us two mothers! ”

Pei Fengnian's face became darker and darker, and the black could be dripping ink.
