CEO's Substitute Bride

Ning Xia felt that it was very necessary for her to explain that she didn't have any presumptuous thoughts towards him, and she told him not to think too much about it.    

"Ning Xia, there's no need to say anything. I understand everything. I know you have been suppressing your emotions all this time. I can understand everything."    

Pei Shijie didn't give her the chance to refuse. With watery eyes, he said, "I knew you were being forced, so I brought the money right away so that you don't have to be restricted by Pei Yichen. Do you know my good intentions?"    

Looking at Pei Shijie's exaggerated acting, the corner of Ning Xia's mouth twitched. What if she wanted to turn around and leave?    

"Ning Xia, I know you want to break away from Pei Yichen right now, so take this money and I'll help you."    

Ning Xia was about to refuse when she suddenly thought of Pei Yichen's words. Yesterday, Pei Yichen seemed to have said that she could take this money for herself, right?    

"This isn't a good idea …"    

Ning Xia was a little conflicted. Although she really wanted to take the money for herself, it seemed that this was too bad. She was plotting against him like this.    

But, this seemed to be something he was going to deliver himself, they didn't do anything …    

"Ning Xia, there's nothing bad about it. This is something that I'm willing to do. I want to see you happy."    

Pei Shijie sincerely expressed his feelings. To him, this amount of money was nothing, but if this amount of money could pull Ning Xia over to his side, then it would be worth it …    

Seeing that Ning Xia didn't say anything, Pei Shijie knew he couldn't force her too much, "Ning Xia, take this money and solve your current predicament. As for the rest, can we talk about it later?"    

Ning Xia nodded her head, feeling troubled. Money was something that no one cared about. He didn't steal nor snatch, Pei Shijie had insisted on giving it to her. Therefore, she didn't have any psychological pressure when she took it.    

When Pei Shijie saw her take the money, he knew that things were already halfway there. As a woman, he couldn't be too hasty, but after seeing Ning Xia's slim body and pure facial features, his heart was no longer as simple as it was before.    

Even if it was a woman Pei Yichen had used before, he still didn't mind. In the future, he would have a good time.    

"Manager President Pei, then, thank you first. Don't worry me, I will work well, I hope for the best..."    

Ning Xia pursed her lips and deliberately spoke very slowly, waiting for him to say that she didn't need to return the money.    

Pei Shijie had never let Ning Xia down. He smiled and interrupted her, "No rush, you don't have to return it, it's just …" Sigh, forget it, you should head back first. "    

With his dark and gloomy attitude, if it were a normal person, they would have asked him if there was anything wrong, right?    

"Manager President Pei, what's wrong? If there's anything I can do for you, I'll do it. "    

Ning Xia followed his words and asked.    

Pei Shijie couldn't help but feel proud of himself. So what if she looks pretty? Isn't she starting to worry about him?    

"It's not a big deal. It's just that … "As you know, my little brother has always had a heavy mind. Some are introverted, some have a bad temper, and some are a little extreme. I'm afraid that he might do something that would be detrimental to the company. So if you find anything, you must tell me as soon as possible.    

Pei Shijie looked like a caring brother, making Ning Xia feel disgusted. "Manager President Pei, what do you mean?"    

Seeing Ning Xia's cautious look, Pei Shijie curled his lips and patted her shoulder. "Alright, let's talk about it in the future. You should go back first. Don't tell this to Yichen."    

Ning Xia had a conflicted expression on her face. After hesitating for a few seconds, she firmly nodded her head. "Alright."    

Looking at Ning Xia's leaving figure, Pei Shijie stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. Even though she was dressed in a housedress, her good figure could still be seen at a glance.    

Pei Shijie couldn't help but put his hand under his nose and smell. It seemed like he smelled Ning Xia's body. Fragrant.    

Ning Xia held the bag in her arms, feeling somewhat proud of herself. She felt that she had made a fortune recently and needed to think carefully about how to spend the money. Right now, it seemed like buying a house was the most suitable investment.    

Ning Xia walked towards her room. However, when she passed by the study, she thought about it seriously and knocked on the door, preparing to tell Pei Yichen about the matter. He had a split personality, what if he suspects her?    

Shen Heng went up to open the door. Seeing that it was Ning Xia, he invited her in and silently left.    

Pei Yichen raised his head and looked at her idiotic look, then he knew what was in her arms, "What, you want to show off your wealth to me?"    

Pui!    

Seeing that he looked down on her, Ning Xia spat at him in her heart, "President Pei, look at what you said. Didn't I come here to tell you that the money has arrived? Then I'll accept it without any hesitation."    

"What else did Pei Shijie say?"    

Pei Yichen's main focus was not on these.    

"He said that he wanted me to pay more attention to you in the future. If you do anything that would be detrimental to him and the company, then you have to tell him that he cares about you and is afraid that you …"    

Err …    

Ning Xia suddenly stopped talking. For some reason, she felt that she had said too much.    

"Afraid of me?"    

Pei Yichen asked Ning Xia with a cold tone, his eyes showing no emotion.    

"I'm afraid of you …" "Err …"    

Ning Xia rolled her eyes like a cunning fox, quickly thinking about how to round things up. She couldn't say that she was afraid Pei Yichen would be too solitary, could she be eaten alive by him every minute?    

"… …." I'm afraid that burying everything in your heart is not good for your health. " After thinking for a long time, Ning Xia finally came up with a reasonable excuse. After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but inwardly sigh at her own cleverness. She nodded heavily and agreed with her own words, "Yes, that's it. That's all he said."    

Pei Yichen wanted to laugh. She thought she had covered up well, but he had seen through everything long ago.    

Facing Pei Yichen's sharp eyes, Ning Xia felt a little guilty. Although it wasn't the original sentence, it was more or less the same. Pei Yichen wouldn't do anything to her, would he?    

"Yup, after the annual meeting, you can let him know that my legs are still in good condition. Before the annual meeting, not a single word is allowed to leak out."    

Pei Yichen said indifferently and waved at Ning Xia, indicating that she could scram now.    

Ning Xia blinked in disbelief. He had always been using his good intentions to conceal the fact that his legs didn't have any disabilities. Wasn't it to prevent others from harming them?
