CEO's Substitute Bride

Pei Yichen's mouth twitched as he watched every detail on Ning Xia's face through the telescope in the room. He had to admit that he found a very fitting "actor" for himself.    

    

Ning Xia initially ran very artistically, looking like a frail willow in the wind. But after turning the corner and making sure that Pei Shijie couldn't see her, she rolled her eyes, slowed down her pace, and leisurely walked back.    

    

She ran so beautifully just for Pei Shijie to see. Although making it nice-looking, her speed was not slow either, because she didn't want to be caught.    

    

That's why, this woman was careful before turning the corner and walk!    

    

If she wanted to be caught up, she would slow down the pace, but since she didn't want it, she ran like she was at the Olympics.    

    

Today was only the first round in the confrontation with Pei Shijie. It was enough for him to think she needed him. If she said too much it wouldn't be good, he could easily become suspicious.    

    

That's why it is said that a woman showing weakness is inadvertently revealing her needs. The other party will seek to provide, and then the two states of demand and supply will close the circle.    

    

There was a saying, "Those who can't get it, are always restless!"    

    

As Ning Xia walked, her imagination ran wild. She felt she was simply too awesome, and couldn't wait to take credit in front of Pei Yichen!    

    

Sure enough, watching too many palace dramas had some benefits.    

    

Of course, it's not like people would always want to harm her, but at a crucial moment, it can give some invaluable ideas.    

    

With these trivial matters on her mind, Ning Xia probably wasn't aware of herself anymore, and unknowingly, she arrived at the door of Pei Yichen's room. Looks like her legs knew her mood better than herself.    

    

"I've hinted to him that our relationship isn't good. Pei Shijie probably took the bait."    

    

Ning Xia pushed the door and entered. She saw that Pei Yichen was still sitting by the window, keeping the same position as before. In a low voice, she reported what she had accomplished.    

    

Pei Yichen turned and looked at her. His dark eyes met her starry eyes that were filled with excitement and had a hint of a smile.    

    

At this moment, Ning Xia was like a puppy that had just fetched back a wooden stick in its mouth. She excitedly wagged her tail at her master, obviously wanting to be praised.    

    

If it wasn't for some tension on her face, he really would have wanted to pat her head.    

    

"I saw it all."    

    

Pei Yichen raised the telescope in his hand to show her how he admired her actions.    

    

"So, what do we do next?"    

    

Ning Xia was a little excited thinking how, she, who was just an ordinary commoner, suddenly encountered such extraordinary circumstances and did such unusual things. It was simply too much excitement in her life!    

    

Seeing that she was so eager to go on, Pei Yichen felt he had to take back what he just thought. How could this retarded woman be compatible with him?    

    

"We wait!"    

    

Startled by his ice-cold voice, Ning Xia knew that Pei Yichen's aloof personality has appeared again …    

    

At this time, surviving was the most important thing. She should get as far away from him as she could!    

    

"Okay, President Pei. If you need anything, just tell me. I'm going back to my room to wait!"    

    

As soon as she finished speaking, Ning Xia disappeared from Pei Yichen's sight like a wisp of smoke.    

    

Seeing her run away, Pei Yichen shook his head helplessly. There was a faint smile on his face that had a deeper meaning than usual.    

    

In the mean time the relatives who had left the Pei House, gathered together once again.    

    

"Sister, what do you think about Yichen?"    

    

Pei Jianye looked at his sister, who had been silent all this time. She was wearing a qipao, and she had a very elegant demeanor. She had always been different from the rest of them.    

    

Pei Sizhu smiled and said, "Brother, you know me, I never want to get involved in any of your matters. I just want to live my life."    

    

Pei Jianye pouted, "That's right. You're a dignified young lady, yet you insisted on marrying a man from the mountains and suffer hardships. Why isn't my brother-in-law here today? "    

    

Pei Sizhu lowered her eyes. "Father didn't say anything about my choice. Brother, don't you think you care about it too much?"    

    

The faint voice was clearly distant. The second and third brothers died early and of the four siblings only two remained, but she and this elder brother didn't have much in common.    

    

"You are my sister, as your elder brother I'm the same as father!"    

    

Pei Jianye had a haughty attitude, that even Zhang Wen, his wife, could not stand it anymore. She lightly pulled on his sleeve, but he flung her away, "What, am I wrong? This younger sister is really outrageous! "    

    

Pei Sizhu frowned, "Brother if there's nothing else, I'll be going back now, the shop is still busy. But I'll give you a word of advice, the third brother left early and there's only this child left. He's doing well right now, third brother will be more at ease on the other world if big brother doesn't cause any trouble."    

    

Saying that, she walked out without even looking at how dark Pei Jianye's face was.    

    

Zhang Wen sighed helplessly and said softly, "Jianye, don't talk about this in front of little sister in the future. If she tells daddy …"    

    

"What are you talking about!" "Who is she now? With that marriage of hers, what can she ask for? She's been like this all her life. Should I be afraid of offending her?"    

    

Seeing how Pei Jianye was yelling at her without caring about anything, she opened her mouth but in the end, didn't say anything. Her marriage was in name only, and if it wasn't for her child and for the sake of appearances, she would have already divorced.    

    

Pei Jianye looked at her in disgust and, seeing her weak and submissive appearance, he was even more annoyed, "Go back by yourself, I still have things to do."    

    

Zhang Wen looked at him leaving and got up helplessly. She went out to take a taxi home.    

    

Ning Xia slept soundly in her room until it was dark. In the end, she was woken up by the phone's ringtone.    

    

She suddenly sat up and wiped the sweat off her forehead. Her heart was beating fast. The calls she was receiving recently were bad news. She really had some lingering fears.    

    

She frantically grabbed her cell phone. Only when she saw that it was Niu Juan's number did she heave a sigh of relief. "Big Sister Niu."    

    

"What's wrong? Why do you speak so hesitantly? "    

    

Niu Juan was surprised listening to her voice. No matter what, this girl was always so enthusiastic.     

    

"It's nothing, I was sleeping."    

    

As she spoke, Ning Xia took a look at the phone and saw it was already 11 PM, so she asked, "It's the middle of the night, why don't you sleep?"    

    

Niu Juan mysteriously lowered her voice and said, "Tomorrow, the dating agency will send me a super handsome guy. Come with me."    

    

"Ah?" You want me to accompany you on a blind date? "    

    

Ning Xia was a little unsure. Niu Juan was the oldest "leftover girl" at her workplace, so she basically spent all her free time on blind dates. However, was it appropriate to bring at a blind date a woman who looked a little better than herself?
