When Zhou Ruxue heard her husband’s words, her heart melted into a puddle and her eyes turned red.

Now, her crying was not because she had been wronged, but because she was touched.

She felt like she had married the best man in the entire world.

Grandma Pei was convinced by Pei Jitong’s words. She said helplessly with some heartache, “It was because I was worried and felt sorry for you that I…”

“Mom!”

After being called out by Pei Jitong, Grandma Pei immediately shut her mouth. She still looked a little resentful, though.

“Alright, alright. You two go ahead. I’ll think of how I can talk to my brother.”

After saying that, Grandma Pei turned around and left.

Zhou Ruxue was left flustered by her words. After she left, she looked at Pei Jitong and asked, “Jitong, what did Mom mean by what she said just now?”

Pei Jitong smiled and replied, “Nothing. Don’t think too much about it. It’s not like you haven’t met Mom before. She just wants the Pei family to do well, and she’s just trying to provoke you.”

Zhou Ruxue looked at Pei Jitong’s handsome face. Even though more than ten years had passed since their marriage, he was still the same man he had been years ago. He was handsome, refined, and gentle. It was as if time had not left any traces on his face at all.

When she married Pei Jitong, Old Master Chi had already stopped associating with the Pei family because of Grandma Pei, and he had also stopped helping the Pei family out. Her and Pei Jitong’s marriage had only triggered Old Master Chi’s verbal confirmation that the two families were done with.

After she married Pei Jitong, many people said that she was stupid for wanting to be the young mistress of a second-rate wealthy family rather than staying with the Chi family as a widow. They said that the Chi family would give her a nicer life than the Pei family. They also said that Pei Jitong was with her and had left his first wife because he wanted to use her for her connections. After all, she was Chi Yang’s biological mother. Chi Yang could not sever ties with his own biological mother, right?

However, over the last ten-plus years, Pei Jitong had proved these people wrong time and time again with every action of his.

He was a perfect husband, pampering Zhou Ruxue like a doting father. Even though Grandma Pei had made things difficult for her over the years, Pei Jitong always stood by her side and backed her up.

Even though Zhou Ruxue initially suspected that Pei Jitong’s intentions were not pure, during these seventeen years, he had never once mentioned to her that he wanted her to help the Pei family out.

He had only ever loved her, cared about her, and doted on her.

When faced with a man like this, Zhou Ruxue felt like even if her heart was stone-cold, it would have thawed in his presence.

She held onto this lovely man’s hand and looked at the faint blue-black circles under his eyes. Her heart ached.

“Jitong, I am your wife. Even though I used to be the daughter-in-law of the Chi family and Chi Zehao’s woman, you should know that he is no longer in my heart. You’re the only one I keep in there. I only love you. I’d be willing to give my life for you. All these years, you’ve taken care of me and loved me. You’ve never asked me for anything, and I’ve never helped you in any way. Seeing you so worn out, my heart aches. Jitong, tell me, what’s happened to the Pei family? Why have you been coming back home so late these past few days? What do you need me to do for you?”

Looking at his concerned wife, Pei Jitong put on a gentle smile that Zhou Ru Xue could not resist. “Why are you overthinking? I’ve already told you that everything’s fine.”
