Chapter 1006 Moving the Bedroom

There was a slight smile on his usually stern and serious face.

When having breakfast the next day, he said to Zhou's mother: "Clean up my bedroom again, put a screen in between, move a small bed, and move all Miss's belongings here."

Mother Zhou was taken aback: "Sir?"

Xia Ling was also a little surprised: "Brother Pei?"

Pei Ziheng skillfully used a knife and fork to cut the smoked chicken breast for her as always, with a gentle voice: "If you are afraid of the dark, move to live with me, do you think it's okay?"

She could hardly believe her ears, could she live beside him?The sudden surprise made her so excited that she didn't know what to do. After taking a deep breath, she nodded vigorously: "En!"

"Sir!" Zhou's mother was anxious. She never understood why Pei Ziheng adopted such a young girl. Since the first day Xia Ling was brought into the house, she had been faintly worried—Mr. He has never been interested in any women, and even the most restless teenage years have been spent without any disturbances. Could it be that his orientation is contrary to ordinary people? !
Pei Ziheng ignored Zhou Ma's presence, and put the cut chicken breast on Xia Ling's dinner plate: "Eat more, it's time to grow your body. What kind of screen do you like? Sandalwood? Tulle? Crystal? Pearl?"

Xia Ling tilted her head and thought about it carefully, then smiled with crooked eyebrows: "Brother Pei is good at picking."

"Sir!" Seeing that the big and the young ignored her, Mother Zhou had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for the young lady to live in your room! The young lady is so old, it's hard for men and women to kiss each other... ..."

Pei Ziheng slightly raised his eyebrows, and glanced at Xia Ling.

Xia Ling also blinked and looked at him. The 12-year-old girl grew up in a pure environment like an orphanage. She was originally ignorant of the relationship between men and women, but now she looked innocent.

Pei Ziheng asked her warmly, "Do you think it's suitable?"

She bit her dinner fork: "I'm still young." For some reason, she had an inexplicable sense of trust in the man in front of her. Being by his side made people feel very safe.She was even very happy to be able to live in the same bedroom with him, because she was more worried about being kicked out of the house by him than the danger that did not exist in her intuition.He is willing to share his bedroom with her, which means that he likes her very much... doesn't he?

Pei Ziheng said to Zhou's mother, "Are you ready yet?"

Zhou's mother was so anxious that she wanted to stomp her feet. The little girl is ignorant, and the husband doesn't understand either?What should we do?She has taken care of her husband many years ago and watched him grow up. Now she can't just watch him go astray!She looked at him seriously and said, "Sir, I want to talk to you alone."

Finally, he gave the woman who watched him grow up some face, asked the driver to take Xia Ling to class first, took a clean white tissue, wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully, and signaled Zhou Mama to speak.

Zhou's mother gritted her teeth, her heart froze, and she said to him: "Sir, you are not young anymore, it's time to get a girlfriend, and let the girls see that there is a little girl living in your bedroom. Decent? Miss Xia is only 12 years old, she still doesn't understand many things, but you should understand!"

Pei Ziheng's expression was a little gloomy: "What's the matter?"

Mother Zhou mustered up her courage to look at him: "Sir, madam passed away early, there are some things I can't tell you, and only I, an old woman, can say a few more words. You are at this age, when you are young, so you should spend more time outside. A girlfriend is nothing, but having such a young girl by your side is not good for her or for you!"

Pei Ziheng frowned slightly. Zhou's mother didn't think about what Zhou Ma said when he adopted Xia Ling.Back then in the orphanage, under the bright sunshine, when he saw her for the first time, a secret voice in his heart said to him - that's her, Pei Ziheng, you must take her home.

As for what happens when you take it home?
How should they get along?
Everything is unknown.

He never thought of asking her to be his girlfriend at all, as long as she belongs to him, that's fine.

This kind of belonging is similar to him owning a flower, a cat, a piece of delicate and fragile porcelain... He wants it and can afford it, so he takes it home to enjoy, that's all.

"Mother Zhou, you are overthinking," he decided to end the topic, "My orientation is normal, there is no problem, and I will marry a well-matched young lady in the future to get married and have children. As for Xiao Ling?" The corners of his lips showed A smile that I didn't even notice, "She will always belong to me, it's as simple as that."

He got up, put on his coat, and walked out the door.

Zhou's mother was shocked by his words - always belong, what a dangerous word.

But she is just a servant and can't change anything.That night, she followed Pei Ziheng's instructions to hang a screen in the bedroom, and placed Xia Ling's crib next to his bed.

Xia Ling nestled in the soft and comfortable little bed, no longer having nightmares.

Even in the deepest darkness, she knew that the man she believed in and relied on was sleeping within her reach, and no matter what danger she was in, he would protect her immediately.

She thought, she probably won't be abandoned.

She is in a good mood and in good spirits. These days, she is radiant and more beautiful than ever.

Many young ladies in the etiquette class are extremely jealous, but they have nothing to do. The only consolation is that this wild girl still can't remember the cumbersome rules and etiquette of the upper class. She is full of mistakes and omissions. Severe punishment.

Teacher Gao is merciless when he hits people, especially with pretty girls. "The more beautiful you are, the more eye-catching you are," she warned Xia Ling sternly. "The more eye-catching you are, the more your shortcomings will be magnified. If you want not to embarrass yourself or the Pei family, you should Work harder than others!"

Xia Ling had no choice but to grit her teeth and suffer.

Often, after finishing get out of class, she would go to make tea for Pei Jingmei.

Since she broke Pei Jingmei's teacup last time, she kept her word and took over the task of making tea for Pei Jingmei this semester.Among a group of Miss Qianjin's servants, she was clumsily doing things in the damp and small tea room. Pei Jingmei's servant pointed her out: "Miss Jingmei thinks that the tea tastes too strong and dirty. If you don’t drink the first brew, you have to pour it out, and then make the second brew. Be careful when serving the tea, the water can’t overflow the line on the edge of the cup, otherwise it will affect the taste of the tea if it shakes too much... "

She memorized all of them in her heart, as hard as taking an etiquette class.

There were other servants who couldn't stand it anymore. In the corridor, an old maid said to Xia Ling: "Miss, let me help you with the journey. You have worked hard enough in class, and you still have to take care of tea carefully." , I can’t walk fast. It’s time for class after taking a dip like this, and you haven’t even taken a break.”
