The car was driving smoothly. There were three people inside: she and Guan Lei in the back seat, and Pei Haoran driving. Apart from Guan Lei who kept glaring at her with venomous eyes, it was very quiet in the car. Nobody spoke.

Zhu Xiaowei leaned against the car window, her face expressionless as she watched the scenery outside. However, her tightly clenched hands betrayed her nervousness and anxiety.

The woman next door, Guan Lei, looked very disheveled. She had been slapped by Qiao Bao'er, her hair was scattered and her clothes were messy. Especially her thick foundation makeup had completely run... she looked like a madwoman. Guan Lei must have never been treated this way before.

Zhu Xiaowei stiffened, nervously clutching his body as he looked at the Pei family gate before him.

So Pei Haoran wanted her to go back to the Pei family together, was he hoping she would apologize to Guan Lei, or make amends for Guan Lei

"What's wrong What happened"

As soon as she got out of the car, the two elders of the Pei family walked over and were surprised to see Guan Lei's disheveled and injured appearance.

Pei Haoran's parents are both from traditional scholarly families. They were invited to work as visiting professors abroad before and just returned last week. Zhu Xiaowei had contact with the two elders for a few days and found them to be very knowledgeable, humble, and amiable.

"Where did you get hurt"

Pei's mother's usually kind face held a hint of worry. She turned to Zhu Xiaowei directly and instructed, "There's a medicine cabinet at home, Xiaowei, could you help with that..."

Pei Fu's face became serious, and he clearly saw a slap mark on Guan Lei's right cheek.

Members of the Pei family generally dislike vying for fame and fortune, and they especially disapprove of physical violence during their children's education, particularly for daughters.

Guan Lei, although accustomed to being arrogant and domineering, cared deeply about her image. Today, after being humiliated by Qiao Bao'er, her face darkened with resentment, but she remained silent, unwilling to speak a word.

That's a cryptic insult, "You have a white-eyed wolf at home, be careful!"

What's going on

Pei's mother also heard that there was something behind those words. Although Lei Bing's personality wasn't good and she had divorced her son, she was still the biological mother of her grandson after all.

“Mom, you should take a look at Gu Lei’s injuries…” Pei Haoran, who had been looking troubled all this while, suddenly spoke up.

Guan Lei was very dissatisfied with his attitude, and there was a hint of warning in her words, "No need. But about today's matter, Pei Haoran, you must handle it properly!"

Speaking, Guan Lei turned and left just as arrogantly and self-importantly as usual.

"Guan Lei, stop right there!"

It's rare to hear Pei Haoran speak with such anger. Zhu Xiaowei was stunned, watching the former couple. She thought that Guan Lei, with her free-spirited personality, would just walk away, but she really stopped.

It turns out Pei Haoran can also handle this arrogant ex-wife.

Or, maybe Guan Lei, this woman, actually listens to him.

This feeling was strange. Zhu Xiaowei lowered her head, and for some reason, her chest felt a little tight.

Pei's mother seemed to have long been accustomed to the way Pei Haoran and Guan Lei interacted. She walked over, half-dragging Guan Lei's hand, led her into the house, and checked her injuries.

"Come into my study with me."

Pei Haoran stared at her for a long time, his eyes conflicted. It wasn't until Zhu Xiaowei bowed her head, like a child who had done something wrong, that he spoke. She then took a step and obediently followed behind him.
