Chapter 91 The Frightened Little Rabbit
Looking somewhat frustrated and annoyed, he cursed himself for not seeing Pei Wenwen's true colors before.

Pei Wenwen was stung by a bee that day, and at first it didn't seem serious.

After returning home, my face gradually swelled up the next day, looking like a pig's head. Now I'm hiding at home, afraid to come out and see anyone.

After being frightened by Pei Yuanjun's hint, Pei Xiaoya stopped actively causing trouble for Qi Yunran.

When they returned to the Pei family home, they saw Madam Wang, the old woman, sitting calmly in a chair, looking down with disdain at the middle-aged woman sitting in the chair below her. The woman looked haggard and old, and was very thin.

However, one can still vaguely discern her beauty in her youth from her eyebrows and eyes.

Standing beside her was a graceful woman with a fair and flawless face, delicate features, and especially her large, watery eyes that seemed to speak volumes.

Her face carried a hint of gentleness and fragility.

She doesn't look like Qi Yunran at all.

She looks more like her mother.

Qi Yunran's appearance is a combination of her mother's and father's.

She may not have the striking beauty of Qi Yulu at first glance, but she is a woman whose beauty grows on you with time and becomes more and more captivating and meaningful the more you look at her.

As soon as Qi Yunran and the others stepped through the door, Madam Wang, Pei's mother, immediately stood up in surprise: "Eldest son, you're back?"

At this moment, Qi Yunran's mother, Han Xiuxiu, and Qi Yulu looked up at the door.

When she saw Pei Yuanjun's face, she stared at him in a daze. This was her sister's husband, Pei Yuanjun?

She thought he was just a poor scholar?

A handsome face, a slender figure, and an aura of asceticism emanating from him—how could such a dashing and outstanding man be the husband of that fool Qi Yunran?

She immediately felt jealous of Qi Yunran, thinking that if she had been the one sold into the Pei family, would this handsome husband have been hers? Would the immense wealth in the capital have been hers too?

Han Xiuxiu also immediately looked Pei Yuanjun up and down. He was indeed outstanding, being both handsome and a high-ranking official in the capital.

She now felt that Qi Yunran, that wild girl, was not good enough for him, and that her own Yulu was a better match for him.

Pei Yuanjun frowned in displeasure at their scrutiny.

Although the young woman appeared gentle and charming, he could see jealousy in her watery eyes. She feigned girlish shyness, but her gaze kept inadvertently falling on him.

When he looked over, she lowered her head, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Finally, she boldly pretended to be curious and looked up at him.

As he swept over her with his sharp, cold gaze, her small mouth opened slightly, looking like a frightened little rabbit.

He dislikes pretentious women.

Ranran's mother's gaze remained fixed on him from the moment he entered, scrutinizing him repeatedly, as if she were appraising a commodity waiting to be sold.

Finally, a look of regret and excitement appeared on his face, completely ignoring Ranran.

Qi Yunran crossed her arms, watching them with amusement. Was Pei Yuanjun attracted to Qi Yulu? His gaze had been fixed on her ever since he entered.

These are the original owner's wolfish relatives?
Upon first meeting her, instead of asking how her daughter had been doing all these years, she was scheming about how to steal her daughter's husband.
How blind was Pei Yuanjun in the original book? How could she possibly fall for Qi Yulu, such a pretentious and affected woman?

That perfectly timed shy expression, like a startled little rabbit.

It was done effortlessly, without any sense of incongruity.

It seems she's used this kind of despicable tactic to attract men quite a few times.

Therefore, they can perform with ease.

Qi Yunran recognized the tricks she used at a glance.

She was misled into thinking she was incredibly shrewd, when in fact she was just a cunning and manipulative woman who knew how to put on an act.

On the surface, she appears innocent and harmless, but inside lives a man-eating flower that devours people without spitting out the bones.

Just look at what happened to the princess in her past life when she tried to steal Pei Yuanjun from her.

This is a vicious, selfish, and extremely insecure woman.

Although Pei Yuanjun doted on her utmost in the original book, she was still insecure and afraid that he would be taken away by someone else, so she secretly harmed all the women who wanted to get close to Pei Yuanjun.
