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

Chapter 404 Decision
"Yes, legally we have never been separated, and now," Ruan Anxi looked at the old man with a serious look in his eyes, "I have finally found the treasure I left behind, and this time I will not lose it again. "

The meaning is very clear, even if the old man Pei wants to hinder, she will be firmly together at the same time.

The old man obviously didn't expect her to say such a thing, and he said after a while: "Then you and Jing Chen..."

"We're just friends."

Ruan Anxi smiled again: "He saved me when I was desperate, and I know what a good person he is, but..."

But it's just a friend, it's impossible to go any further.

You can understand the rest even if you don't talk about the old man, just thinking about how much effort my grandson spent on unraveling the mystery of his life experience before, and the look in his eyes when he mentioned Ruan Anxi, he couldn't help but sigh.

The living room fell into silence for a while, and neither of them noticed that anyone had left at the entrance, and they gently closed the door.

Pei Jingchen leaned against the door frame and looked at the lush green yard, but felt depressed and uncomfortable.

He had to go to the United States for his affairs, but thinking that Ruan Anxi lived in Pei's house, he insisted on finishing the matter half a day early, and then caught the nearest flight back.

Who knew that he heard the old man's question as soon as he entered the door, he hurriedly stopped Wu Ma who was about to say hello, and gently closed the door.

The most important reason why he wanted Ruan Anxi to return to Pei's house was the old man's plan. He was hesitant to hint this matter to Ruan Anxi, but he didn't expect the old man to ask first, so he wanted to hear Ruan Anxi's opinion first.

In his opinion, Ruan Anxi should not reject the old man directly, as long as she hesitates a little, he will have a chance, and he is not afraid of waiting for a long time—after all, they are under the same roof now, as long as he guards against time, Mr. Ruan Anxi will last forever. will have feelings for him.

Who knew that in the end, he listened to the confession of the man with his head full.

And without any hesitation, he swiftly cut off the faint extravagant hope in his heart.

He suddenly felt that he understood Pei Jinwei a little bit. Presumably when he told Pei Jinwei that he saw her as a "sister", the other party's mood was different from that when he heard Ruan Anxi say that he only regarded him as a "friend".

But also because of Pei Jinwei's "lesson from the past", Pei Jingchen can better understand Ruan Anxi's current thoughts. Stalking will not only fail to make the other party change his mind, but will wear off his goodwill in the other party's heart. Can't do it either.

When the glare of the sun gradually softened, Pei Jingchen let out a long breath, put his right hand on the doorknob for a moment, then put it back, turned and went to the garage.

Since Ruan Anxi's attitude is so clear, he should have made a decision earlier.

In the living room, Wu Ma picked up the phone, and when she saw the old man coming over, she handed the phone over: "It's the young master."

The old man raised his eyebrows slightly: "Didn't the driver go to pick him up?"

Other than that, he couldn't think of why Pei Jingchen called when he was about to get home, but this was just a casual question, seeing Wu Ma shaking his head, he asked himself: "What, did you get off the plane?"

There was a wry smile in Pei Jingchen's voice: "Something happened here, I can't go back for a few days."

"What is so important?"

Mr. Pei knew his grandson's feelings for Ruan Anxi, and he would definitely come back if nothing serious happened, so he was a little anxious right now.

Pei Jingchen hurriedly said: "The Johnson family has changed. I'm afraid that something will happen to the contract just signed. It's better to stay here for a few days. As for Xiaoxi, please take care of it."

The water in the big family is very deep, but the old man is not so worried when he hears that there is a little bit that can spread to the outside, he just said: "My granddaughter still needs you to order? If you are really worried, come back by yourself."

The old man still hopes that Pei Jingchen and Ruan Anxi can be together, even if it doesn't work out in the end, it would be better for both parties to talk about it earlier, so there is such a sentence.

On the other side, Pei Jingchen didn't know what he was thinking. The old man didn't hear anything for half a minute, and when he was about to hang up the phone, he heard the other side speak again: "Let me have a word with Xiao Xi."

The old man was not surprised, but he couldn't help feeling sorry for his grandson, so he couldn't help but sighed before responding.

When Ruan Anxi heard that Pei Jingchen would not come back, she didn't know whether she should relax or not. She wanted to take advantage of the old man's words to make it clear to Pei Jingchen, but now it seems that she has no chance.

This kind of thing keeps getting worse and worse. She really doesn't want to lose this friend, even if it's just an ordinary friendship with gentlemen, but what if Pei Jingchen doesn't even make ordinary friends with her...

Among other things, living with two "strangers" under one roof is quite uncomfortable.

Thinking wildly in her mind, Ruan Anxi was still a little unresponsive when she heard the voice over there: "...Huh?"

"I mean, can you live in Pei's house during this time and get closer to grandpa?"

The voice over there was sincere, as if she knew that she was a little distracted just now, and repeated what she said just now without hesitation: "I should stay in the United States for a long time, grandpa is getting old, and there are some things I may not be too concerned, so can I please you during this time?"

Ruan Anxi never expected that the other party would make such a request, and she didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

She originally planned to leave early because she was afraid of getting along with Pei Jingchen, but now that Pei Jingchen said that she would stay outside for a long time, she didn't need to leave in a hurry.

Plus……

Ruan Anxi looked at the old man who was teasing Xiaoxiao with Xiaobei on the sofa. Although he was in good spirits, his hair was already pale, and his figure was already bent—after all, he was already an old man.

Originally, the old man would be accompanied by Pei Jinwei, but now that she has squeezed away the granddaughter who has been raised for 20 years, is she going to take this responsibility?

"Xiaoxi?" Seeing her not answering for a long time, Pei Jingchen couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, pursed his lower lip and couldn't help but said, "It's because the Pei family helped Xiaobei when Xiaobei disappeared, you How about spending more time with grandpa?"

This kind of saying is unavoidably a bit of a deal, but he has already decided to go back to the United States to stay in order to forget Ruan Anxi, and he is really worried about what will happen to the old man's health when he is not around, and he can rest assured that Ruan Anxi is helping him.

In addition, he drove away the granddaughter whom the old man had raised for 20 years, so he couldn't help feeling a little guilty towards the old man, so he wanted Ruan Anxi, his own granddaughter, to get closer to the old man.

Called back by Pei Jingchen's voice, Ruan Anxi's hand holding the receiver slightly tightened, with a solemn expression: "Okay."

It wasn't Mr. Pei's fault that she was living abroad at the beginning. After the mystery of her life was revealed, the old man was really kind to her. Thinking that the old man lost his son and daughter-in-law first, and then lost the granddaughter who was raised by himself, Ruan Anxi looked at his back and couldn't help himself. heartache.

In addition to what Pei Jingchen said, not only did the Pei family treat her innocently, but they even treated her kindly, so she couldn't refuse Pei Jingchen's request.

……

Mr. Pei was very happy when he learned that Ruan Anxi would stay for a few more days, he didn't notice that Xiao Douding sneaked into the bedroom and dialed Shi Yan's number.

After Ruan Anxi left the villa, Shi Yan went to the company. Although his right arm was still recovering, it didn't hinder him from attending the meeting and signing. He just wanted to spend more time with his wife and children.

When I received the call, the company's monthly meeting had just ended, and Shi Zhongxun's management had even led to a big project in the past month. Shi Yan was in a good mood: "Xiao Bei? When will you come back? Dad will pick you up."

Because Xiao Douding was wearing that phone watch before and got lost, he was afraid that the child would leave a psychological shadow, so he never bought it for her again. Very pleasantly surprised.

Who knew that Xiao Douding seemed to be asked about something sad, and his voice suddenly dropped: "Dad, come and pick us up, I will not be happy without your mommy."

"Ok?"

Shi Yan paused, signaled Lin Huan to wait outside, and went into the lounge by himself: "Is Mr. Pei treating you badly?"

The old man managed to "snatch" his granddaughter back. How could he have a bad attitude, but Xiao Bei has always been sensible, and when he seldom complained indiscriminately, he couldn't help thinking more: "Someone is still bullying you?"

After all, Pei Jinwei has stayed in Pei's house for more than 20 years. It is not surprising that there are one or two servants who are facing her. If those people see that Pei Jinwei's position is replaced by Ruan Anxi, they might avoid the old man's face and show the mother and son's face. .

Shi always thought so when he didn't know Pei Jinwei very well, and there was a hint of chill in his voice, Xiao Bei hurriedly said: "No, the people here are very nice, but..."

She seemed to be struggling with what to say, but she couldn't find the exact words to express this feeling for a while, and finally she could only say sullenly: "I just think Mommy is unhappy, Dad, come and see us, okay?" ?”

Shi Yan wanted to leave enough time for Ruan Anxi this time, so that the other party could solve the problem with the Pei family without interference, but now hearing the aggrieved voice of the little princess he held in his palm, he instantly Throwing the previous plan to Java, after coaxing Xiaodouding a few words, he finished the work at hand as quickly as possible, and then drove all the way to Pei's house.

Usually, the old man said that "the Shi family boy" is the best among the younger generation. Who would have thought that this young man would actually deceive his granddaughter, so his feelings were a little complicated.

Although Ruan Anxi had already informed about the relationship between Simultaneous Yan, the old man couldn't change his impression of Shi Yan all at once, so when he heard Shi Yan's visit, he frowned before putting down his brush: "Are you here alone?"

The servant hurriedly responded, he wanted to go out directly, but stopped as if thinking of something: "Xiaoxi and the others are in the living room?"
