Only married but not in love: Ex-wife, see you tonight!

Chapter 280
He used to pick Xiaobei up from school at this time.Pei Jingchen looked at the gate and signboard of the kindergarten, and couldn't help but smile.

In the days when Shi Yan didn't appear, my relationship with Ruan Anxi and Xiao Bei was obviously so good, how could everything change when Shi Yan appeared?

Watching the flow of people, Pei Jingchen was a little lost in thought.

Now I can only hide in the corner alone, thinking about Ruan Anxi silently.Thinking of this, Pei Jingchen felt a little bitter again, and took a deep breath to regain his senses.

Most of the chattering children outside had happy smiles on their faces, which further reflected his dire situation.

Just a second before Pei Jingchen wanted to look back, a bright color suddenly broke into his vision, and before he could react, he almost subconsciously shouted: "Xiao Bei!"

Regardless of whether he was still in the car, Pei Jingchen immediately poked his head out and yelled over there.He was sure that the child with the little pink schoolbag and the yellow hat must be Xiao Bei.

However, Xiao Bei didn't hear Pei Jingchen's shout, she was walking silently alone, as if she didn't care about the outside world at all.

Things at the photo studio went smoothly, and Ruan Anxi was glad that the mother and daughter finally didn't have to "live on the streets", but within a week, Ruan Anxi regretted it a little.

"Xiao Ruan, I'm sorry, I didn't expect that there are so many guests today, and you will be so busy in a blink of an eye. You should hurry up and pick up your daughter."

Miss Qin's mother who stayed behind to help look after the store looked at the wall clock on the wall, and said to Ruan Anxi a little embarrassed.

Ruan Anxi didn't respond to her words, but instead smiled and said, "It's okay, I've already called her teacher and told her that she should have gone home by herself now. I'd better finish this before leaving."

Ruan Anxi said this lightly, but the movements of Ruan Anxi's hands did not stop.She slowly wiped all the equipment that she took out today carefully, and then carefully put them away.

Qin's mother looked at Ruan Anxi's diligent appearance, and couldn't help but praise Ruan Anxi: "Oh, during this period of time, many students have to take ID photos, and there are many other customers. If you weren't here, I really don't know How come you are so busy."

Ruan Anxi listened to the shopkeeper's unstoppable admiration, but felt a little helpless in her heart.

At that time, I chose to work here because I thought I could free up the meal time to pick up Xiaobei and go home.

But who would have thought that when the photo studio gets busy, there is no way to get off work on time.

Ruan Anxi thought about asking the store owner to resign, but after thinking about her savings, she was reluctant to say so.

In addition, after the store discovered her photography skills, it took the initiative to increase her salary, which made Ruan Anxi even more unwilling to give up this job. She could only suppress the helplessness in her heart and stay here wholeheartedly. Can let Xiaobei walk home by himself like this day.

Xiao Douding is not stupid, she felt Ruan Anxi's busyness the third time she learned from the teacher that Mummy would not be able to pick her up today.

After walking home alone again, Xiaodouding finally couldn't help asking his own doubts: "Mum, why do you have to go out to work? We've run out of money, isn't there a father working?"

Ruan Anxi used to be very busy at work, but Shi Yan was not with them at that time, and Ruan Anxi had to go out to earn money to support her.

Xiao Bei keenly felt that their situation now may return to the time before Shi Yan appeared.This made Xiao Bei very uneasy, she didn't want to be separated from Shi Yan again.

Ruan Anxi didn't know that Xiao Bei had thought so much, and now she felt a little sour just because Xiao Bei mentioned Shi Yan.

But fortunately, Ruan Anxi has been able to quickly hide her emotions now. She looked down at Xiaobei who looked worried, and said with a smile: "Xiaobei has gone back to school now, and mom doesn't want to stay at home alone , so I have to go out to work, so that my mother will not be bored."

Ruan Anxi would not mention to Xiaobei that she had no money, nor would she turn the topic back to Shi Yan. After thinking about it, she continued: "Mom thinks that Xiaobei has grown up now, and she can already You can walk back by yourself, right? Not only can you exercise Xiaobei, but you can also let your mother do what she likes, so my mother will choose to go out to work."

Xiaobei nodded ignorantly when she heard the words, thought about the reason Ruan Anxi said, and found that there was really nothing to refute, so she didn't bother with this matter any more.

Naturally, Pei Jingchen didn't know about this, he hurriedly got out of the car when he saw Xiao Bei, and walked towards Xiao Bei against the flow of people, finally he arrived in front of Xiao Bei, his voice trembled a little when he spoke excitedly: "Xiao Bei, you, are you back here to study now, where is your mother?"

Xiao Bei obviously recognized Pei Jingchen too. Seeing the excited look of the person in front of her, she couldn't help showing surprise on her face: "Uncle Pei, why are you here? Xiao Bei hasn't seen you for a long time!"

Xiao Bei always thought that, besides her mother, Shi Yan would come here to pick her up one day, but after the first few days' expectations failed, she stopped looking around.

Who would have thought that Pei Jingchen would actually appear in front of her, although she was not the person she most wanted to see, Xiao Bei was still very happy.

Pei Jingchen was much happier than Xiaobei. He originally planned to find someone to check Ruan Anxi's whereabouts after he went back, but he bumped into Xiaobei unexpectedly.

Ruan Anxi must be living with Xiaobei, Pei Jingchen couldn't help but asked again: "Is Xiaobei going back to find her mother now? Uncle Pei will take you back."

Thinking that he would be able to see Ruan Anxi later, Pei Jingchen was so happy that he wanted to run around in circles.

Such a big smile on Pei Jingchen's face made Xiao Bei also infected. She raised her head and said crisply: "Mmm, Mommy should still be helping out in the photo studio. Xiao Bei went to have dinner with her."

photo studio?

Some doubts flashed in Pei Jingchen's mind, but seeing Xiao Douding's happy face, he didn't ask directly. Instead, he took Xiao Bei into his car, and then went to find Ruan Anxi together under Xiao Bei's guidance.

The place Ruan Anxi was looking for was not far from the kindergarten. Even though it was the evening rush hour, it didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the place where Ruan Anxi worked.

As soon as Pei Jingchen stopped the car, Ruan Anxi just walked out of the photo studio.

"Mummy!"

Xiaobei saw Ruan Anxi's figure sharply, and immediately attracted her attention with a loud voice.

Ruan Anxi walked over here with a puzzled expression on her face. If it wasn't for Xiao Bei's smiling face, Ruan Anxi would have thought she was being held hostage by someone.

However, Xiao Bei's smile still made Ruan Anxi think about it, she didn't recognize who the owner of the car was, she couldn't help guessing that it was Shi Yan, and she froze in place for a moment without moving.

"Axi."

It wasn't until the car door was opened from the inside, and Pei Jingchen came down from the inside with a smile, looking at her tenderly, that Ruan Anxi realized that she was too nervous and forgot to breathe.

No matter how much she refused to admit it, she still felt a sense of disappointment in her heart the moment she saw Pei Jingchen, but she quickly covered it up and greeted Pei Jingchen with a smile: "Why are you here? gone?"

"I was looking for you too," Pei Jingchen said with a smile, "I just happened to meet Xiaobei. Are you... leaving again?"

This "again" made Ruan Anxi's expression stiff for a moment, but Pei Jingchen didn't seem to see it, and said again: "Haven't you eaten yet? I'm going just now, let's go together?"

Ruan Anxi subconsciously refused, but in the end at Pei Jingchen's insistence, Ruan Anxi and Xiao Bei got into his car and followed him to a nearby Hunan restaurant for dinner.

At the dinner table, Pei Jingchen couldn't help but keep looking at Ruan Anxi, but Ruan Anxi helped Xiao Bei prepare the dishes without looking sideways, deliberately not looking at Pei Jingchen.

When the three of them were almost finished eating, Pei Jingchen dared to ask his own question: "Ah Xi, why are you and Xiaobei here? Have you moved out yet?"

Pei Jingchen didn't mention that he went to the villa to look for Ruan Anxi today. He only needs to know what Ruan Anxi's plans are in the future, and he doesn't want to talk about the past.

Ruan Anxi gently wiped the corners of Xiaobei's mouth, then finally looked at Pei Jingchen, and nodded in response to his words.

To be honest, Ruan Anxi doesn't want to see Pei Jingchen now, but the latter doesn't think so. Although Ruan Anxi's attitude towards him is polite and distant, he can't help but want to get close to her.

"This is really good, Axi, this is really good."

Pei Jingchen felt that he was a little incoherent, and he tried to calm himself down after a while: "So Xiaobei will go back to class, where do you live now? Is it not convenient to be away from the school? I have a house nearby, why don't you You guys move in."

Although the last time Pei Jingchen helped Xiaobei find a kindergarten, he only rented a suite for Ruan Anxi and the others, but after Ruan Anxi was brought back to the villa by Shi Yan, Pei Jingchen deliberately bought a suite here because he knew that one day , Ruan Anxi will leave Shi Yan.

Isn't it time for the house I bought to be useful now?

Even Mr. Pei didn't know about the existence of that suite, and Pei Jingchen wasn't worried at all that Pei Jinwei would come to him.

However, Ruan Anxi resolutely rejected Pei Jingchen. She looked at Pei Jingchen seriously, but there was no room for change in her tone: "We have already found a place to live, so I won't trouble you."

If it wasn't for Xiao Bei's presence, Ruan Anxi would have made it clear to Pei Jingchen that she and him had already drawn a clear line.
