Chapter 32 There is no third chance

After entering the house, Pei Cheng turned on the lights with the remote control. Many of the lights that had not been replaced for a long time were broken, and some were still flashing continuously.

This is really not the treatment a member of the Pei family deserves. Pei Cheng is now even more miserable than before.

"I'll find someone to fix it tomorrow." Shi Wan said in a dry voice.

Pei Cheng smiled as always, "It's okay, I'm fine."

"Why did they treat you like this?" Shi Wan couldn't help but ask.

Pei Cheng said softly: "Useless people should naturally be thrown away like garbage."

Shi Wan squatted in front of him and couldn't wait to explain: "You are useful! Just now, when you called Brother Pei Cheng, they were so scared that they lost their way! Hahaha..."

Shi Wan giggled deliberately and sat down at Pei Cheng's feet, which seemed to ease some of the sad atmosphere.

Pei Cheng looked at her quietly, "Are you happy to be back Wanwan?"

Shi Wan smiled brightly and nodded vigorously: "I'm happy! I didn't know before that I had so many forces to rely on! Now I feel like I'm at the top of the food chain again! Haha..."

Her laughter echoed in the empty villa, as if joy instantly filled the entire villa.

Pei Cheng looked at her tenderly and said softly, "That's good."

Shi Wan suddenly remembered why he came to Pei Cheng, and immediately sat up straight, looked up at Pei Cheng, and said pitifully: "Brother, I want to borrow your dog."

Pei Cheng smiled and nodded.

"Don't you want to ask me what I'm borrowing it for?" Shi Wan asked.

Pei Cheng lowered his head and gently rubbed her high nose bridge, very dotingly. He said with a smile: "I heard Pei Lie say that you used your dog to bully others."

Shi Wan was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Brother still understands me!"

But as she laughed, she thought of her dogs. The dogs that once protected her were gone...

Pei Cheng raised his hand and touched her head to comfort her sadness, silence was better than words.

Shi Wan hugged his knees with his hands, curled up into a ball, buried his head in his knees, burying deeper and deeper, sobbing silently.

Pei Cheng stayed with her quietly until Shi Wan fell asleep leaning against his legs.

He didn't have the strength to pick her up, but he didn't want to wake her up, so he turned off the light with the remote control.

The bright moonlight shone through the window and fell on Shi Wan.

Pei Cheng looked down at her for a long, long time, and finally he slowly and gently uttered three words: "I'm sorry."

It was late at night and it was very cold on the mountain. Pei Cheng's villa had no facilities at all, and Shi Wan's body was trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Pei Cheng took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Shi Wan is here with me, you come and pick her up."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and finally the first sentence was said: "You didn't hurt her?"

Pei Cheng raised his lips slightly, "I hurt her just to deal with you."

Zhan Xu seemed to be relieved and said, "I'll come over now."

Half an hour later, Zhan Xu stood in front of the two of them. When he saw Pei Cheng sitting in a wheelchair and looking so weak that he would die at any time, his pupils trembled slightly for a moment.

Pei Cheng ignored his shock, lowered his head and pointed at Shi Wan who was leaning against his legs: "If you don't take her away, she might catch a cold."

Zhan Xu walked forward, bent over to pick up Shi Wan, turned around, and said nothing.

When they were almost at the door of the villa, Pei Cheng's gentle voice seemed to float out and entered Zhan Xu's ears: "Do you regret it?"

Zhan Xu paused, "There's nothing to regret. This matter has nothing to do with her."

Pei Cheng smiled sadly: "But I regret it."

Zhan Xu didn't ask any more questions and started to leave.

"When she wakes up, tell her that the dog will be sent to her home tomorrow."

Zhan Xu was stunned for a moment, he looked down at Shi Wan who was sleeping in his arms, a look of confusion in his eyes.

Pei Cheng added: "Zhan Xu, the real way to treat her well is to let her recognize her own abilities, rather than letting her be blindly confident."

Zhan Xu didn't answer and walked away.

Pei Cheng watched his back gradually disappear into the darkness and murmured, "There is no third chance."

The next day, Shi Wan was woken up by a call from Lu Zhixia.

"Still sleeping? Didn't you ask me to arrange the activities?" Lu Zhixia's energetic voice came.

Shi Wan rubbed his eyes, sat up lazily, and leaned against the comfortable headboard. "Okay, I'll get up right away. Send me the address."

Lu Zhixia sighed deeply: "If you are late, I won't wait for you!"

"Okay." Shi Wan raised the corner of his lips slightly and agreed.

When she fully opened her eyes, she could see the layout of the room clearly. It was the familiar master bedroom of Zhan Xu's house...

She got up, opened the door and went out. She saw Zhan Xu in the open kitchen. He was frying eggs. He was as virtuous as he was when he was studying abroad.

Shi Wan walked over barefoot, supported her elbows on the marble dining table, propped her chin with her hands, and looked at Zhan Xu's back happily.

Zhan Xu didn't turn around to look at her, but asked calmly: "When did you get involved with Pei Cheng?"

"Weren't you confined at home at that time? I was bored! So I went to play with him, and after playing for a long time, we became familiar with each other!" Shi Wan explained while shaking his head, and then playfully asked back: "Are you jealous of my ability to make friends?"

Zhan Xu put the fried eggs into the plate, turned around and pushed it in front of her, then took a soup bowl and filled it with bird's nest, and poured them both a glass of milk.

Shi Wan joked, "The virtuous Zhan Xu is finally back. I am so lucky!"

Zhan Xu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and stood opposite her. Neither of them seemed to have any intention of moving to the dining table to eat.

Shi Wan used a fork to pick at the egg nonchalantly, his eyes fell on the plate, and he said, "Zhan Xu..."

"Yeah." Zhan Xu also lowered his head to eat and responded.

"That money... where did you get so much money?" Shi Wan asked, and finally looked up at him.

Zhan Xu also raised his eyes and looked at her with amusement: "Selling cars!"

"You really sold the Bugatti? Just for me?" There was surprise in Shi Wan's voice, and even a subtle pride. Her status was higher than Bugatti's?

Zhan Xu nodded, lowered his head to eat again, and after swallowing the egg, he asked, "Your solution yesterday was a dog?"

Shi Wan held the cup of milk and drank it all in one gulp. He was very generous and seemed very happy.

"It's not just a dog, it's Pei Cheng's dog! I don't think they would dare to act rashly!" She was still a little arrogant.

"What did they do to your dog?"

Shi Wan, who was being proud, suddenly froze in smile and lowered her head to eat her fried eggs. The joyful atmosphere froze in an instant.

After a long while, until she had swallowed two fried eggs, she smiled and said to Zhan Xu: "These are all small problems. You are helping me by concentrating on managing the company."

Zhan Xu seemed dissatisfied with this answer and stared at her.

Shi Wan suddenly changed the subject: "By the way, whose makeup remover towel is that in your bathroom? Do you have a girlfriend?"

Zhan Xu was slightly startled, and explained: "A friend came to stay here before and stayed here."

"Friend?" Shi Wan asked with a wicked smile.

Zhan Xu raised his lips and glanced at her playfully: "What?"
