stern wife

Chapter 684
"The subordinates will definitely convey it on their behalf."

Finally sending Qin Guan away, Pei Xiaoran just entered the room with the tray in his hand, when he heard the knock on the door again.

She frowned immediately, thinking that this Baili Lieyuan is not over yet?
Don't think that if she spared his life, she won't give him a big mouth again!
Unexpectedly, when the door was opened again, it was Shen Lian standing outside the door.

Shen Lian also held a tray in his hand, which contained the exact same things as those sent by Qin Guan just now.

Because he still wanted to get the truth about his previous life out of Zhu Lianxi's mouth, Pei Xiaoran did not refuse.

Although she was very reluctant to accept Zhu Lianxi's hypocrisy, she still reached out and took the tray, thanking her with a smile:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion."

"It should be."

Shen Lian said politely, and then said tentatively:
"Just now, I seem to have seen the people around His Highness Li leave from here. I don't know why His Highness sent someone to look for Miss Pei?"

Shen Lian, who has a shallow relationship with Pei Xiaoran, naturally wouldn't be curious about Pei Xiaoran's private affairs.

Zhu Lianxi must have wanted to know the relationship between her and Baili Lieyuan during this trial, right?

After thinking for a moment, Pei Xiaoran smiled and said:
"That's right, that person is His Highness Li's subordinate, and he also came to give me these things. I couldn't refuse, so I had to accept it.

Presumably His Royal Highness Li Wang cared so much for me because I had saved him in the past, which made me very flattered. "

The implication is that she has nothing to do with His Royal Highness Li Wang. The other party will treat her well, and it is just to repay the kindness of saving his life.

Shen Lian's brows loosened slightly, and he also smiled and said:

"So that's the case. I didn't expect His Royal Highness Li Wang to have a bad reputation, but he is actually a person who knows how to repay his kindness. It seems that his character is still good."

Pei Xiaoran nodded in agreement.

Shen Lian didn't bother too much, and expressed his concern on behalf of their master, then quickly took his leave and left.

Pei Xiaoran went back to the room, put the tray in his hand on the table, looked at the two trays on the table, and let out a long and troubled sigh.

She is actually very decisive when dealing with emotional matters, just like when she led troops to fight, every order is timely and decisive, so that she can remain invincible.

It was the same when I fell in love with Zhu Lianxi back then.

When she found out what she wanted, she immediately made a decision. No matter whether Zhu Lianxi ascended the throne or not, she would never leave and stay by his side.

Of course, if Zhu Lianxi wanted that position, she would do her best to help him achieve his wish, even at the cost of her life.

Even though she gave everything in that relationship, what she got in the end was a crushing defeat.

But Pei Xiaoran was not born with feelings because of this.

Some people dare not give their true love in this life because of their lover's betrayal.

But Pei Xiaoran is not afraid, she is still not afraid of giving her heart and everything.

It's like fighting a battle on the battlefield, but just losing one game doesn't mean you won't win again in the future.

If you are afraid of the enemy and dare not fight the enemy just because you lost a game, then what chance will you have of winning in the future?
Therefore, she is fearless, and she is not afraid of getting hurt again.

However, the one who moved her in this life was someone she couldn't like.

It's nothing, she simply gave up decisively.

It's just...the other party refused to let go, instead entangled her endlessly, making her not know what to do.

In contrast, dealing with Zhu Lianxi made her feel much more at ease.

With the lessons of her previous life, no matter how well Zhu Lianxi treats her, she can be sure that the other party is just to use her.

With this level of cognition, she will no longer have any entanglements, and only act according to her own purpose and plan.

His eyes fell on the two sets of clothes that Zhu Lianxi sent, although the one sent by Zhu Lianxi was much lower-key than the one sent by Baili Lieyuan, but it was also made of fine and expensive fabrics, and it was very expensive at first glance.

Originally, he planned to give these two sets of clothes to Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli, but anyway, the things had already been given to her and belonged to her, so it would not be rude for her to dispose of them.

However, when making this decision, inexplicably, the image of Baili Lieyuan sitting beside her in a mess and seriously massaging her calf flashed across her mind.

And if Zhu Lianxi found out that what he gave her was passed on to someone else, she might doubt whether her closeness to him was true or not.

After hesitating for a moment, Pei Xiaoran finally decided to keep both sets of clothes.

Anyway, her warehouse is huge, and it's not that it can't hold two sets of clothes. Even if it is thrown in there to collect dust, no one will know.

As for why he changed his mind, Pei Xiaoran didn't want to think about it, so he just looked away, sat down at the table, and waited for her elder sister Mulberry Silkworm to come back.

After a while, Mulberry Silkworm came in with a few servants.

These servants were all brought by their own family. At that time, there were also a few servants from Pei's mansion that Pei Xingshan sent to serve.

But those don't need to be called, maybe they are with the murderer, even if they ask, they won't find anything.

As soon as those servants saw Pei Xiaoran, they all showed expressions of fear, and they all knelt down to salute in fear.

It was because of their lack of care that the young master almost had an accident. Pei Xiaoran must have called them here to punish them!

Although Pei Xiaoran never beats, scolds or punishes others casually, this time it is different.

This little general cares so much about his family, their negligence is tantamount to directly touching her back, it's no wonder she let them go!
Thinking of the illustrious reputation of this little girl who killed the enemy outside under the tree, the weather was not cold, and the few of them broke out in cold sweat in a short while, and trembled uncontrollably.

Seeing them like this, Pei Xiaoran was a little confused, and said hesitantly:

"you……"

Before she could finish speaking, one of the servants shouted loudly:
"It's all the little one's fault! It was the little one who didn't take good care of him, and almost killed the young master! The young lady wants to beat and kill, and the little one has no complaints!"

When the others heard the words, they also bowed their heads and confessed their guilt, desperately taking the guilt on themselves.

They have stayed in the new house for a long time, and they also know that Pei Xiaoran is by no means the kind of mean and ruthless person. On the contrary, he is very discerning and considerate to his servants.

At this time, if she refuses to admit it, it will undoubtedly only make her even more angry.

As long as you bow your head obediently and confess your guilt, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.

Hearing this, Pei Xiaoran couldn't help but laugh.

She waved her hand and said:

"Get up, when did I say I'm going to blame you? Calling you here is just to ask about the situation at that time.

However, with the lessons learned this time, we should indeed be more vigilant in the future so as not to make the same mistakes again. "
