Did the eldest lady abuse the scumbag today?

Chapter 277: The Past is Like Smoke (1)

"What are you looking for?"

When Si Xun heard the sound, he realized that a woman was leaning against the door.

The woman had a pretty face, a pair of eyes as bright as stars, long black hair draped behind her, and she was wearing a lavender suspender skirt, her whole body bathed in warm light.

She stood there, looking at him quietly, as if she was wondering what this man was doing in the study in the middle of the night.

"I'm looking for something."

Si Xun blushed. It was always women who blushed when they saw him, but when he looked into Pei Ningjing's pure gaze, he felt a little guilty.

He never knew that there would be such a woman in the world. She just leaned there so simply, but she exuded a nobility that made people look up to her.

For the first time, he felt his heartbeat quicken and his words became incoherent.

"Oh--"

Pei Ningjing drew out her voice, still leaning elegantly against the door.

After a long while, she spoke again, "Do you need my help?"

Hearing her words, Si Xun's body trembled violently, his face looked a little ugly, and even the violent heartbeat just now quickly recovered.

How could he forget that he sneaked into the study room and was now caught by the owner, and the owner asked if he needed help? Wasn't this a slap in his face?

"No need." Si Xun refused coldly.

"Oh, then take your time looking for it. Remember to turn off the lights when you leave."

Pei Ningjing said softly, turned on the light in the study with a press of her hand, and turned to leave.

Si Xun was furious. He really didn't understand whether this woman was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. He was obviously a thief, but she knew it and was kind enough to turn on the light for him and asked him to close the door when he left.

What kind of weirdo is this, or maybe just a silly girl?

He had been called a genius since he was a child, but today was the first time that he was made so embarrassed by a woman's words.

Looking at the leaving figure, Si Xun pounded the wall hard, and the sound of a woman's giggle came to his ears again.

Si Xun clenched his hands tightly, wanting to crush that damn woman to death!

"Xiaoyi, there's another idiot in our study." The voice was faint and soft. It was Pei Ningjing's voice.

"Let them be. There are people coming every night." The other voice was unilateral.

"But that guy is so stupid. When I found him, he didn't even run away. He just stood there in a daze. He looks good, but not as good-looking as Bo Wu, nor as majestic as Bo Wu."

"Really? You keep talking about your husband's name. In your eyes, there is only him. There are no other men. You are the only one who can withstand all the pressure and marry in. Well, what did you do to that thief?"

"I asked him if he needed my help. He said no and didn't run away."

"It seems like he is really a fool. If it were anyone else, wouldn't they have run away long ago?"

"That is to say, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to see clearly in the dark and windy night, so I kindly turned on the light for him and told him to remember to turn it off when he left. You don't know, his face turned black in an instant, almost as dark as the bottom of our pot."

"Sister-in-law, let them be. That study has been searched hundreds of times anyway."

"Yes, but that idiot is really too stupid. Now he is still looking for it in the study. When Bo Wu comes back tomorrow, I will let him take a good look at that idiot."

"Ignore them. When they're not home, we can just sleep together and let those clowns find their own way."

"Well, this guy today is a big fool. He didn't even know I was approaching. Such a stupid person will definitely die of stupidity in the future."

"Sister-in-law, go to bed, it's very late."

"Ah."

Although the whispers of the two women in the room were very soft, Si Xun could hear them clearly with his cultivation level.

The originally handsome face turned livid. Dare to say he was stupid? Pei Ningjing was the first and only one!

Thinking of the Fu family's Qingluan Sword, Si Xun resisted the urge to kick the door open.

'Snap', he obediently turned off the light and rushed out of the window.

Sensing several auras around him, Si Xun became even more murderous and severely beat up several figures hiding around him.

Only when the anger in his heart subsided a little did he clapped his hands, looked at the Fu family's house angrily, and then turned and left.

Si Xun remembered that woman!

After returning home, Si Xun's hands and body were covered with dense red spots, and his whole body was in unbearable pain.

Then he remembered that the woman's hand touched the switch, and he listened to the woman and turned off the lights when he left. As a result, he fell into the woman's trap. Si Xun was so angry!

After the red spots on his body disappeared, he appeared in the Fu family's study again, hiding in the dark, planning to find a chance to get back at the enemy.

It has always been others who have suffered losses at his hands, and this is the first time that he has been schemed against like this. How could he possibly swallow this?

Ever since being despised by Pei Ningjing that day, Si Xun would report to the Fu family every night.

The men of the Fu family go out early and come back late every day, and sometimes they don’t go home for more than ten days.

Si Xun even went out of his way to inquire about their family situation.

Fu Bowu performed very well in the army and was often assigned missions. Although he and Pei Ningjing had just married, they had very little time together; Fu Zhongwen had just taken office and was also very busy.

The people who appeared the most times in the entire Fu family were Pei Ningjing, Shan Yi, and Old Madam Fu.

Shan Yi goes to work during the day. Fu Jue is already in kindergarten and there is someone to pick him up and drop him off every day. Pei Ningjing and Mrs. Fu are the ones at home during the day.

Si Xun hid in the dark, watching Old Madam Fu constantly finding trouble with Pei Ningjing every day, complaining about this and that.

But Pei Ningjing just smiled and quickly endured it. And Wang Ma was also working as a servant in the Fu family at that time.

Pei Ningjing's life was taken care of by Wang Ma. Although Pei Ningjing married into the Fu family, the Pei family and the Fu family had almost no contact. Even so, Pei Ningjing still often went to the Pei family.

Every day when Pei Ningjing was at home, what she suffered the most was Madam Fu's anger. Whenever she was angry, she would drive her sports car to go racing alone, and then bring back a car full of things, each of which was a fine product, and everyone got a share.

When Mrs. Fu saw the things she brought back, although everyone got a share, her face looked very ugly and the words she said became more and more unpleasant.

She only knows how to spend money but not how to make money, and she is even spending her son’s hard-earned money!

She was even more picky about Pei Ningjing and often made sarcastic remarks; her attitude towards Shan Yi was also extremely cold.

"Get out of here!"

Pei Ningjing returned to the room with a rage and yelled towards where Si Xun was.

When Si Xun saw that she suffered a loss, he naturally felt better and showed up openly.

Looking at the huge wedding photo in the room, Si Xun felt inexplicably depressed, but he quickly put it out of his mind.

"What do you want to do?"

Pei Ningjing still had a sweet smile on her face, but the smile was a little scary. She could actually detect his presence.

"I don't want to do anything, I just want to find the Qingluan Sword."

Si Xun made no secret of his purpose, because he knew that it was useless to hide it from someone who could discover him, and instinctively, he didn't want to lie to Pei Ningjing.
