Pei Xiuyuan did not show much of his annoyance. He remained smiling and graceful. “It’s just the right time. Now that you’re back. I’m picking up Manman today. She can bid goodbye to you.”

“Are you leaving with Manman? Where to?”

“To our home.”

“Your home…” Suddenly, Hou Qingqing realized that they were now married to each other. Surely, they needed to start living together. “Fine! I’m going to help Manman to pack up her things!”

Pei Xiuyuan smiled satisfyingly. Lu Man’s friend was indeed a considerate friend.

Lu Man was anxious. Hou Qingqing acted like a woman who was keeping a brothel. She seemed very eager to put her in bed with him.

In actual fact, she had planned to use Hou Qingqing as an excuse to postpone the arrangement of living with him. It seemed impossible now.

“Big Boss Pei, just take a seat. We’ll go and pack up her things now. It won’t be long!” Hou Qingqing led Lu Man away to her room.

Pei Xiuyuan knew that it was inappropriate for him to help pack up her things. So, he stayed in the living room and waited for them patiently.

“Qingqing, what did Pei Xiuyuan give you in return? Why do you seem so eager to send me away?” Lu Man could not help but voice out her annoyance once they were inside her room.

“He’s such a good and superior man! Why don’t you hold onto him? What are you waiting for?”

Lu Man’s lips twitched. “Aren’t you afraid that his superiority and prestigiousness would harm me instead?”

“I’ll present you with the magic ability to shield yourself from various kinds of attacks from now on! You don’t have to worry!”

Lu Man burst into laughter. “Stop joking around! Quickly pack up the things. Big Boss Pei’s time is just too precious.”

Lu Man was worried when she realized that she was the one who had made him wait for her. He was a person who could earn hundreds and even thousands of millions in a single minute. She did not even have time to be hesitant. 

“That’s more like it. You should hold onto him now that you’ve married a rich guy. You will eventually get used to living with him!”

“That’s true!” Lu Man agreed now. She was indeed overthinking before. 

“Manman, will Big Boss Pei think that we’re gold diggers if he heard what we have said just now?” Hou Qingqing remembered that Pei Xiuyuan was still waiting outside of the room. She was afraid that her joke would ruin her friend’s future life.

“It’s not easy to meet someone who loves you sincerely nowadays. Who wouldn’t pick a rich and handsome guy? It’s quite obvious. Even if I didn’t mention it, he would surely be able to see through that. Moreover, he knows perfectly well why I married him in the first place. Don’t worry about that.” She was never a gold digger. She never dreamed of living luxuriously. She just yearned for a true lover who could stay by her side forever. She did not abandon Mu Yunhai no matter how difficult their life was before. She always sacrificed herself for him. But, what had she received in return?

The result was that he went to pursue a rich girl so that he could advance in his life. She was then forced into a corner.

So, what if she became someone who pursued wealth now? Was that wrong?

Hou Qingqing knew that Manman was thinking about Mu Yunhai now. “One would surely encounter some bastards some time in their lives. You must abandon them immediately just like forgetting about yesterday’s sunlight. Then, you need to live better than those bastards! That’s what you should do!”

“Sure! I need to become better each and every day!”

Lu Man did not own much and she soon finished packing.

Pei Xiuyuan was waiting like a porter. He was shocked when he found that she came out with only a backpack and luggage. “Is that all you have?”

“Yes.”

Pei Xiuyuan looked at how little things she owned. He decided to fill up her closet from now on when they returned home.

“Let’s go then.”

He stretched out his hand and helped to carry her backpack for her. Then, he took over the luggage.

He acted so naturally that the two women soon had a great impression on him.

He was a man of superior status. When had he ever bowed down to anybody?

They went downstairs. Lu Man was going to get into the car when Hou Qingqing came over to hug her.

Although she was eager to send her away, she was unwilling to send her away. Manman was going to live an unfamiliar life from now on.

“Remember to call me. Don’t be a stranger.” She was a sentimental person. Her voice was shaky.

Lu Man suppressed her sadness. She smiled and said, “Are you crazy? I’m still staying in Haicheng. I’m not going overseas! If we want, we can meet each other every day. I won’t be a stranger!”

“I’m just sad to see you go.” Hou Qingqing pouted.

“Fine. It is late and we have to leave now.” If they continued standing there, it would be harder for them to bid each other goodbye.

“Okay.”

Pei Xiuyuan was standing near the car when Lu Man was still talking with Hou Qingqing. He did not intrude upon their privacy. When Lu Man turned to walk toward him, he approached her and hugged her so naturally. Then, he smiled at Hou Qingqing. “I’ll surely take good care of her. Don’t worry.”

What he said was very convincing.

“Then, I’ll leave Manman to you.”

“Alright.”

Pei Xiuyuan’s car was just like him. It was a Rolls Royce black RV, superior and serious.

He opened the door for her and waited for her to take her seat. Then, he went over to the driver’s seat. He acted so gentlemanly in everything he did.

Music came through the speaker in the car. Lu Man was a little stunned. It was her favorite female singer. Was that a coincidence or his sincerity?

She wanted to say something to him but his phone rang at that moment. He was extremely busy. He had received a dozen calls since early in the morning and they were all calls related to business.

He was indeed busy but he still intentionally came to help her to move to their house.

He was indeed serious about their marriage.

He drove the car into the most prestigious area in the entire Haicheng when he was on the phone. Ten minutes later, they were soon in an upscale neighborhood. She read from the news that the properties there were very expensive. Even if you were rich enough to buy them, one might not be able to buy them too.

She never thought that she would be able to live there one day. She was not happy but all she tasted now was bitterness. It seemed that life was indeed unpredictable.

“What’s wrong?” Pei Xiuyuan asked her gently. 

She did not even realize that the car had come to a stop when she was thinking about her past. 

“It’s nothing.” She recovered her senses and smiled.

Pei Xiuyuan did not bombard her with any more questions.

Suddenly, he leaned toward her. Lu Man straightened her body instinctively. Her body froze.

Although she reminded herself that they were now husband and wife and that it was normal if they slept together, she was still not used to being closed with any man. She was not used to him approaching her so suddenly. Her body had reacted out of instinct.

“Don’t worry. I’m just helping you to unbuckle the seat belt,” he said in a deep voice as he tried to calm her down.

She soon relaxed.

But, his lips suddenly came to her. His lips were against hers when she opened her mouth slightly in shock.

After a kiss, he unwillingly let her go. But, her face was red. The accusation was written all over her face. ‘What happened to only helping me to unbuckle my seat belt?’

“Let’s go.”

He held her hand and led her to the eighteenth floor.
