Substitute new wife: Mr. Pei, are you getting divorced today?

Chapter 312 Dog Food

Pei Yanzhou smiled half-heartedly, "Then you should tell your grandparents that I am your ex-husband?"

Cheng Xi's eyes widened, and she pulled out the little hand he held in his palm, and squeezed the back of his hand.

After only squeezing twice, Pei Yanzhou turned around and wrapped her little hand tightly again.

The two secretly fought several times, until footsteps came from outside and came in. Cheng Xi pulled his hand back again and threw the firewood into the fire pretending to be serious.

The person who came in was a distant relative from his hometown. The relative poured a cup of tea and went out.

After a brief period of silence, Cheng Xi had calmed down.

"You shouldn't have given my uncle and aunt so much money just now." She muttered in a low voice.

Pei Yanzhou didn't take it seriously, "If I don't give them that much money, they may not welcome me to stay and eat and drink for free during the New Year. Anyway, I have nothing but a lot of money."

"You shouldn't have come here. Who wouldn't be with your family during the Chinese New Year?" Cheng Xi lowered his head and stared at the flames.

"I can't help it. I haven't seen you for more than half a month. I can't think about it when I'm busy at work. When I'm free, all I can think about is you." Pei Yanzhou chuckled, "If my parents knew the truth, they would probably scold me for being unfilial."

Cheng Xi's heart and eyelashes trembled when she heard this.

Ever since Pei Yanzhou appeared in front of her, her heart had never been calm.

"Then... where will you sleep at night?" Cheng Xi suddenly remembered something, "There is only one empty bed at my uncle's house, and my mother and I slept there. Unless... you squeeze in with my eldest cousin. Fall asleep."

Pei Yanzhou thought of the tall and thick cousin he saw outside just now, and his handsome body froze, "Except...I have slept with you, I have never had the habit of sleeping with anyone else."

Cheng Xi could understand his feelings.

It's not that she dislikes her eldest cousin. There is actually a reason why the eldest cousin can't find a girlfriend. A grown man especially doesn't like to take a shower.

That's all, I still snore like thunder at night.

When she got up at night to go to the bathroom, she could still hear the snoring of her older cousin next door.

If Pei Yanzhou was allowed to sleep with his eldest cousin, he would probably be tortured crazy.

"I sleep with my mother..." Cheng Xi said faintly. Anyway, she couldn't sleep on the same bed with him. "There is a small town nearby. It takes half an hour to drive there, but there are probably no hotels there during the Chinese New Year." People open.”

"Then I'll sleep in the car." Pei Yanzhou had already made up his mind, "Put down the back seat, which is big enough for me to lie down on. You can just find me a quilt."

Cheng Xi was startled and frowned. It was not very good to come all the way to let someone sleep in the car, especially during the Chinese New Year. "Can you... get used to it? Will it be cold at night?"

"It won't work if the quilt is thicker," Pei Yanzhou said. "I used to go on self-driving trips to the northwest with Chongli and the others, and we often slept in the car."

"Why are you sleeping in the car? There must be a B&B over there."

"There are no B&Bs in some uninhabited areas." Pei Yanzhou took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and held it in his hand without lighting it. "We went there seven or eight years ago. At that time, tourism in the Northwest was not as popular as it is now, not to mention many places. There was no one in the B&B, and when we were in the car at night, there was a pack of wolves crawling next to us, so we didn’t even dare to go for a convenience.”

Cheng Xi laughed out loud, "I didn't expect you to be in such a mess. I thought overbearing CEOs like you would usually punch a wolf when they see it..."

"Sorry, I am also an ordinary person. Who doesn't cherish life?"

The two of them sat by the fire, chatting.

In the evening, after dinner, the guests left one after another.

Cheng Xi went to see someone off, and a distant cousin who was over thirty years old patted Cheng Xi's shoulder gently, "Xiaoxi, as someone who has been here, I want to remind you that your boyfriend is very good and handsome. I asked your mother and she said that because of her extraordinary family background, I have always felt that women should marry high, but the high marriage should not be too far apart, otherwise it will be difficult to control the man. "

Cheng Xi smiled and said, "Thank you sister for the reminder, but I am still young and have never thought about getting married."

"Yes, there is nothing wrong with a woman getting married later. Don't listen to your aunt and uncle. I just regret getting married too early."

The cousin smiled, got in the car and left.

Cheng Xi put his hands in his pockets and watched these relatives who had only seen each other for several years go away.

The next time we meet is probably several years from now.

Maybe after my grandparents pass away, they may not see each other again.

Life is like this, gatherings and separations.

After the guests left, my eldest cousin and uncle brought out the fireworks that had been prepared.

The countryside is different from the city. You can set off fireworks as much as you want.

Cheng Xi hadn't let it go for a long time. Fireworks shot up into the sky and exploded "bang" in the silent night sky.

Although the fireworks are beautiful, the sound of the explosion is also a bit scary.

Cheng Xi took a step back and was about to cover her ears when a tall figure approached her from behind and quickly covered her ears.

The palms of my hands are cold.

Cheng Xi put her hands on the back of his hands, which were also very cold.

She turned back to look at the man behind her. His full Adam's apple, his cold jawline, and his long and narrow obsidian eyes reflected colorful fireworks.

Such a special night.

Behind him is a handsome and noble man.

Cheng Xi had the illusion that she was the jewel in his palm.

It turns out that she too will be protected one day.

After the big fireworks were set off, the eldest cousin took out the Gatling he had bought so hard, "Would you like to try it?"

Cheng Xi saw on Douyin that this kind of Gatling was very popular this year.

She was a little eager to try, but also a little scared.

"Don't be afraid, I'll play with you."

Pei Yanzhou took out his lighter, but before he started lighting it, Cheng Xi had already shrunk back.

It was rare to see her get scared. Pei Yanzhou raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and put an arm around her waist, and moved his other hand forward to light the fireworks.

Cheng Xi was forced to lean into his arms. The man's faint cold woody fragrance lingered on the tip of her nose. Before she could recover, the fireworks started "chugging".

She screamed "Ah!"

Pei Yanzhou helped her lift the Gatling toward the black night sky.

With a strong and reliable embrace behind her, Cheng Xi felt less scared and more excited.

The eldest cousin looked at the two people hugging each other while setting off fireworks, and suddenly felt like he was being fed a meal of dog food.

In the past, I thought it was nothing, but now I am really envious. Suddenly I really want to find a girlfriend and let them hold fireworks together.

Grass!

Setting off fireworks alone is lonely, lonely, and boring.

The eldest cousin threw away the finished fireworks tube.

Forget it, I'd better leave this light bulb as soon as possible.

After Cheng Xi put down the Gatling in his hand, he turned around and found that she and Pei Yanzhou were the only two people left in the square, "Hey, where's my cousin?"

"Maybe I ate dog food and left after I was full." Pei Yanzhou said with a half-smile.

Cheng Xi was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that since the two set off the fireworks, either he had covered her ears, or he had hugged her from behind.
