CEO's Substitute Bride

Five days later, Ning Xia alighted at the bus stop in Sha River town. After a few days of bumpy movements, she looked somewhat haggard.    

    

Ning Xia breathed out a sigh of relief. She held her orphanage certificate and asked a few people about it before finding the town registration location and changing it back to her "Summer" name. In the end, her surname was no longer Ning.    

    

Then, she left a contact to tell him that she was going to buy a house in Shahe Town and settle down in a hotel for the time being.    

    

At this moment, in A city, Pei Yichen had turned the tables upside down!    

    

When he brought Lin Qingfeng back to the Pei Family Villa, he unexpectedly did not see Ning Xia's shadow. There was even a divorce agreement on the table in her room.    

    

The content was simple and casual: I, Ning Xia, voluntarily divorce Pei Yichen and go out clean!    

    

She left his world without asking for anything!    

    

Pei Yichen suddenly started to panic. Although he was angry, but he had never thought of divorce with him. He also wanted to spend his life with Ning Xia.    

    

But now, Ning Xia had ditched her divorce agreement in such a carefree manner, leaving everything else behind.    

    

He started to search for Ning Xia crazily. Her house, her shop, the place she liked to go, the people she knew …    

    

However, he was disappointed again and again that Ning Xia really had disappeared.    

    

He searched for a lot of places, but he couldn't find Ning Xia's figure.    

    

He asked one person after another, but didn't find out Ning Xia's whereabouts.    

    

Pei Yichen was sitting dejectedly in the Grand Ox Restaurant. He was staring blankly at the seat that Ning Xia usually sat at.    

    

Old Master Tian sighed. He had already heard Niu Juan's story about Ning Xia. Seeing Pei Yichen so upset, he wanted to tell him the truth many times.    

    

Pei Yichen had already checked all the access documents related to Ning Xia, but he found that she was not the only one with access records. His search had already ended up in a dead end.    

    

However, Old Master Tian knew that he couldn't say anything. He poured a glass of water for Pei Yichen and placed it on the table. Through the French window, he looked outside and for some reason, he thought back to that day when Ning Xia was standing outside.    

    

"One day, when Mr. Pei and Miss Lin were sitting here, Ning Xia was outside. It's just that she didn't come in later on."    

    

Old Master Tian's words caused Pei Yichen to be stunned. He frowned as he didn't quite understand the meaning behind Old Master Tian's words.    

    

Old Master Tian sighed. President Pei was good at everything, but he didn't understand women at all.    

    

"Ning Xia saw you and Miss Lin holding hands." Old Master Tian saw Pei Yichen frown and opened his mouth. He didn't dare to continue speaking, but after thinking for a while, he added, "President Pei, a woman needs to be single-minded."    

    

With that, Old Master Tian went back to his work. As for Pei Yichen's thoughts, he would not tell anyone else.    

    

After searching for over half a month, Pei Yichen finally chose to give up.    

    

Lin Qingfeng had lost her memories, and had completely forgotten about all the people and things that happened in the past. In the entire world, it seemed like only Pei Yichen was known to her, so naturally, she also moved into Pei Family Villa.    

    

Pei Yichen took care of Lin Qingfeng personally and looked forward to her improvement. But Lin Qingfeng was like a child, she had to start over from the beginning no matter what. Lin Ruolan even gave her shop to the employees to look after, accompanying her little sister every day.    

    

Ning Xia's departure seemed to have changed their lives, but it didn't seem to have changed much.    

    

After a month, almost no one mentioned the name Ning Xia anymore.    

    

It was as if Ning Xia was a person who had never appeared before.    

    

Even Pei Yuanfan couldn't help but reminisce the days when Ning Xia was still around and the days when people would argue. But now, Pei Yichen was so cold that it seemed as if he could freeze people to death at any time. Other than work matters, he didn't dare to say anything else.    

    

He suddenly reminisced about the times when Ning Xia was still there, and it was precisely because of this that he never once saw Lin Qingfeng when he returned to the Pei Family Villa.    

    

However, no matter how he felt, Lin Qingfeng was still living well at Pei Family Villa. His expression did not affect Lin Qingfeng in the slightest.    

    

Time was like a merciless, sordid hand, gradually erasing one corner after another into the appearance they had once wanted the least.    

    

Pei Yuanfan began to socialize and learn how to handle the company's affairs properly.    

    

However, every time when it was quiet at night, he couldn't help but sigh. He wanted to drag Shi Mobai along to continue investigating the matter of Ning Xia University's cheating.    

    

Gradually, the matters regarding Ning Xia seemed to have become a kind of obsession in his heart.    

    

He secretly swore that regardless of whether or not he would be able to see Ning Xia again in his lifetime, he would return her innocence!    

    

After Old Master Pei stayed at the Pei Family Villa for a period of time, he watched his grandson take care of Lin Qingfeng everyday and felt depressed. In the end, he chose to return to the countryside and said that as long as Lin Qingfeng stays at the villa, he would never come back!    

    

Pei Sizhu, on the other hand, did not know how to face Pei Yichen.    

    

She knew about Ning Xia's pregnancy and also knew about Ning Xia's departure. Thus, when facing Pei Yichen, she felt a little guilty, so ever since Ning Xia had left, she had almost never returned her Pei Family.    

    

Now that Old Master Pei had made such a decision, she definitely wouldn't come back.    

    

The entire Pei Family was instantly torn apart, and was no longer as joyous and harmonious as before.    

    

Pei Yichen faced everything that was cold and had mixed feelings. He missed the joy of Ning Xia, missed the chili powder she made, and missed the vegetable soup she made.    

    

However, no matter how much he missed her, he couldn't find her.    

    

Facing the amnesia of Lin Qingfeng, after taking care of her for a long time, he found that she showed no signs of getting better, so he hired a nurse to take care of her for 24 hours. As for him, he worked overtime every day.    

    

It was only when Ning Xia had left that he finally understood his feelings. He loved this Ning Xia who had given him an endless supply in exchange for her.    

    

Towards Lin Qingfeng, he only thought that he wouldn't be able to let go of that period of youth. But no matter how much he did, it was already the past. His present and future were both filled with expectations for Ning Xia.    

    

However, he understood too late. When he arrived late, he had already lost everything.    

    

Time and time again, in the sleepless night, he kept thinking about the little things he had done with Ning Xia. Only then did he finally understand how many wretched things he had done!    

    

After a year, Pei Yichen seemed to have become a completely different person. He was more taciturn, his actions were more swift and decisive, his face seemed to have a ten thousand years' worth of ice on it, making it difficult for anyone to get close to him …
