318 Divorce
After Su Ji’s hand injury was treated, Pei Huai called the family doctor to give her a tetanus shot and even did a physical examination.
After everything was done and he was sure that there were no other problems, Pei Huai’s expression relaxed a little.
In Pei Song’s consultation room, Pei Huai was applying medicine to Su Ji’s wound.
Su Ji took out a piece of lychee candy, wanting to eat it. Pei Huai unwrapped the candy wrapper and fed it to her.
Pei Song knew that he was not needed because his brother was there. He did not want to be a third wheel and went outside to smoke.
A WeChat message popped up on Su Ji’s phone. It was from Xu Mingzhi.
Su Ji opened it, and Pei Huai felt her hand pause for a moment, “what’s wrong?”
“My mom sent me a message,” Su Ji replied.
Pei Huai looked at her.
“She asked me if I’ve seen my neighbor.”
Pei Huai: “…”
Su Ji asked, “is it you or my dad who gave it away?”
Pei Huai lowered his eyes and applied the medicine, “both of us.”
Su Ji moved the lychee candy from the left to the right side of her mouth.
Pei Huai helped her apply the medicine and stopped her from using her hand. He took her phone and said, “I’ll reply for you.”
Pei Huai typed “no” and sent it.
He put the phone aside and it didn’t ring again.
Su Ji glanced at Pei Huai, “you seem to have something on your mind today.”
Before this, she already sensed it.
Pei Huai didn’t say yes or no and just asked her to lay her wrist flat.

Xu Mingzhi had been working in the courtyard the entire afternoon, waiting for her “prey”.
However, no one came back. She only saw Uncle He cleaning the yard alone.
It was cold in the evening, and Xu Mingzhi was ready to pack up.
Instead of waiting, she might as well ask.
She kept her laptop and stopped in front of Uncle He.
“Uncle He?” She tried to call out to him. She had not greeted him before, but she had seen Aunt Wu talking to him before, so she knew his surname.
“Hello, madam,” Uncle He said politely.
Xu Mingzhi asked, “you weren’t given a holiday during the new year? Your boss isn’t very humane.”
Uncle He smiled bitterly. “I’m all alone, so I quite like to do the cleaning every day.”
Xu Mingzhi chatted with him, “you are alone? There are no other maids in the house?”
Uncle He said, “master didn’t want to, in order to avoid rumors.”
So the owner was a man, but both Pei Huai and Su Cunyi were men.
Xu Mingzhi nodded calmly. After chatting for a while, she went straight to the point. “Can you tell me who the owner of this house is?”
Uncle He was caught off guard.
Did she not know?
Uncle He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He almost mentioned Master Pei!
“Um…”
Seeing that he was hesitating, Xu Mingzhi immediately asked, “Pei Huai or Mr. Su?”
“Um…”
“I’ll give you Aunt Wu’s phone number,” Xu Mingzhi said.

She often saw Aunt Wu and Uncle he chatting over the fence.

Uncle He: “…”
This was too tempting.
He was in a difficult position!
He couldn’t betray his master, but he really wanted Aunt Wu’s phone number!
She was so chubby and very cute.
After hesitating for three minutes, he said something that could be easily misunderstood, “Madam Xu, Mr. Su still cares about you!”
I’m sorry, Mr. Su!
Xu Mingzhi cracked her knuckles. She knew it was him!
Pei Huai would definitely tell her if he was moving next door!
Moreover, it was impossible for Pei Huai to read that kind of book!
“Well,” Uncle He said nervously, “so Aunt Wu’s phone number…”
Xu Mingzhi smiled politely, “I’ll ask her later. If she agrees, I’ll give it to you.”
Uncle He: “…”
He was tricked!

At around 8 o’clock in the evening, Pei Huai sent Su Ji home and returned to the Pei family house immediately.
He wasn’t in a hurry, but he drove pretty fast.
When he entered the house, Pei Qingshen was sitting on the sofa in the living room and watching TV as usual. When he saw Pei Huai walking towards the study on the first floor, he said in a natural tone, “your parents are having a video conference in the study. It seems to be quite important.”
Pei Huai nodded slightly, but he did not stop.
Pei Qingshen was never worried about Pei Huai, except about his relationship status. He continued watching TV and didn’t say anything else.
In the corridor outside the study, Pei Huai motioned for the maid to clean the other places first, and the maid retreated.
The corridor quieted down and the sounds coming from the study could be faintly heard.
The couple chatted and laughed in a foreign language, but they were not talking to each other. Instead, they were talking to the Board of Directors.
After the small talk, the meeting came to an end. Pei Huai leaned against the wall at the door.
After that, there was seven to eight minutes of silence. It was clear that the video conference had ended.
After an unknown period of time, a man’s deep voice came from inside. “Meilan, there’s no need for this. Our money will eventually be left for the children.”
Du Meilan’s tone was calm. “Shizhan, we are different. In the future, my money will be left for the children, but not you. A large portion of your money will be left for her.”
She didn’t specify who “she” was.
Pei Shizhan was silent. He seemed to have chuckled helplessly.
“Don’t deny it. I know you well. Our youngest son is actually like you, but it’s a pity that I’m not Su Ji. She is. Seeing how he treats Su Ji, I can imagine how you treat her. As good as you are to me, it won’t beat how you feel about her. I’m quite envious to be honest, I’m not trying to mock you.
“So, don’t talk about when our marriage ended. Maybe it was when Pei Huai was three years old, or maybe it’s from the moment we got married, but the fact is that we’re not divorced yet.”
“If your relationship with her is exposed in advance, you know very well the impact on the Pei Corporation and her career.”
“I did lose this bet, but I gave up more than you did. Shizhan, you owe me this. Your life has been too smooth, and you have too much. Just treat me as a setback, you won’t lose out.”
Du Meilan’s tone was calm, as if she had already thought of this a long time ago.
Pei Shizhan did not say anything anymore.

Outside the door, Pei Huai looked completely normal.
He was the one who suggested to his mother that she should get the Board of Directors’ support to get his father to step down.
At first, Madam Du was going to divide the assets evenly since she was the one who wanted to take a bet despite knowing that he didn’t love her. Thus, she swallowed her anger, but Pei Huai said that he could not.
For the time being, only he knew about this matter. Pei Song had once wondered, “mom and dad didn’t even make time to come back for grandpa’s birthday party. What is it that they came back for this time?”
At that time, Pei Huai knew that it was to settle the divorce.
