Chapter 510: Go Bring Your Wife Home

, I might not be suitable."These projects are mainly for public welfare. The company doesn't take any commission from them, treating them as a good deed. Of course, this can help the company improve i..."I'm going to go sleep in my room for a bit. If you guys are still hungry later, there's mango pudding in the fridge. I made two portions this morning..."

Turned his head and said without any politeness, "Next time, remember to make three servings. I have a big stomach, one stomach can handle two people's worth."

Jo Baoer kicked her, "Hey, don't get too cocky."

Zhu Xiaowei just smiled and agreed, "Okay." She turned and went into the bedroom to rest. She was especially sleepy during her pregnancy.

Although she was living well here, with people appreciating her home-cooked meals and making her feel proud. These days, she kept herself busy constantly because as soon as she had free time, she would think about the Pei family, Pei Haoran, wondering if they had eaten, if they were secretly drinking again, if they had stomachaches, and if Pei Yi was throwing tantrums at home

Just now Lu Qinian and Pei Haoran came over. They were outside the room, Qiao Bao'er warned her not to soften her heart and go out.

She simply plugged her ears with earplugs, because as soon as she heard Pei Haoran's voice, she was afraid that she would really lose control and run out.

She didn't know what he had just said, she was very curious, but she was too afraid to find out.

Pei Haoran came to find her, so he would care about her, wouldn't he

After seeing Guan Lei that day, she was very angry. All she could think about was that this marriage was a foolish mistake and that she should just get a divorce. But after one night, she regretted it. She couldn't bear to be without him.

What should we do now

Could it be that she has been hiding in this room all along Zhu Xiaowei pulled the blanket over her head, her mind filled with worries, feeling exhausted. Soon, she fell asleep...

……

It's five thirty in the afternoon, almost time to clock out.

The man in the General Manager's office was still busy, having completed several project proposals and business plans ahead of schedule, but he chose to work overtime anyway.

Someone came in after knocking twice on the door.

"Brew me a cup of coffee, you all can go back first." Pei Haoran didn't look up. He thought it was his secretary and casually threw out a sentence, still typing on the computer keyboard.

"Pei Haoran, it seems like today is your mother's birthday, how are you still working overtime" A familiar and cheerful voice.

Looking up, I saw that Lu Qinian had run over.

Lu Qinan doesn't have many good qualities, but he has a really good memory. Especially when it comes to holidays and birthdays of his girlfriends, he remembers them all clearly.

As soon as the question was asked, before Pei Haoran could even respond, his phone in his pocket started ringing.

“We decided not to eat out. Mom said it's fine to have a home-cooked meal instead. Hao Ran, what time are you coming back” That was Guan Lei’s flamboyant and bright voice.

"I have some work to attend to, you guys eat first." Pei Haoran's tone was very flat.

"What are you working on Just ditch it, the whole family is waiting for you." Guan Lei's voice rose, expressing her displeasure.

"Tell my mom I said hi, and also, I bought a jade necklace. Someone from the store will deliver it later."

Pei Haoran finished his routine matters as usual, speaking as if he didn't want to hear Guan Lei's complaints anymore. He quickly hung up the phone.

Lu Qinan stared at him in astonishment. This guy was truly a natural liar, not needing any notes to fabricate stories.

Lu Qinan stepped forward with a teasing smile, tapping the table with his finger and pointing at the project proposal clearly stating the date for next next month. "Busy as always, this is why you're working hard and not coming home to celebrate your mother's birthday with her, right"

Then, he exclaimed in a very exaggerated way, "Unfilial son! Unfilial son!"

Lu Qinan was just kidding.

Pei Haoran, however, wore a bitter expression and replied with a sigh, "Yes, I'm just an unfilial son."

His eyes were dark.

Pei Haoran knew from a young age that his parents actually favored his older brother more. His older brother had a more stable personality, preferring quiet and focusing on research. He was also family-oriented and liked to spend time with their parents, unlike Pei Haoran who was always running around.

But his older brother died, all because of this unfilial son.

“Hey, cheer up.” Lu Qinan saw that he was so downcast, and immediately raised his voice, calling him out. “I heard from Junzhimu that Zhu Xiaowei has been living well with Qiao Bao’er lately. She’s being pampered and fed well, apparently gaining two pounds.”

“Then that's good.” Pei Haoran had a contemplative look in his eyes and forced a smile.

I sincerely hope Zhu Xiaowei will have a better life.

Lu Qinan looked at him, then muttered softly, "Zhu Xiaowei has nothing to worry about with Qiao Baier, that demoness, watching over him. But you don't seem to be doing so well yourself."

As soon as his voice fell, Pei Haoran's face suddenly turned pale green. His brows furrowed together, and he subconsciously pressed his stomach with his right hand. Cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.

At one glance, he could tell something was wrong. Lu Qinian rummaged through everything, "Do you need some stomach medicine"

Pei Haoran softly replied, "…I'm fine." He endured it and got through it.

Lu Qinan gave him a white look. "If you keep this up, you're going to have a stomach ulcer. You haven't eaten all day, have you"

Having been brothers for so many years, I naturally know him well.

Back when Brother Pei Haoran first passed away, for those few months he actually had three bouts of gastric bleeding. He spent a whole half year in the hospital and didn't let his family know about it.

"You're out of antacids."

Lu Qinan finally found the bottle, he shook it, and it was empty.

Pei Haoran smiled wryly. Since Zhu Xiaowei wasn't at home, no one prepared these stomach medicine for him anymore, and no one called him every day to remind him not to drink and to remember to eat. He had already gotten used to having a wife nagging him every day at home.

And he's been feeling really lost these days.

Zhu Xiaowei's appearance is ordinary, at most considered pretty, not as stunning as the secretary's beauty, or as shrewd and capable as a woman in the workplace. However, she is very good at taking care of people and always seems like someone easy to bully, which makes him feel amused every time.

I don't know what love is.

For him, love was a terrifying thing. Guan Lei's obsession with him plunged his life into an inescapable abyss, even costing the life of his brother.

At first, it was because I felt very comfortable being with Zhu Xiaowei that I had an impulse to spend my life with her, so we got married.

But that day Jun Zhi牧 was right, he felt he didn't deserve happiness, and marrying Zhu Xiaowei was dragging her down to hell with him, making sure she couldn't be happy either. He's a really terrible person.

"...Now she's with Qiao Baier, and Qiao Baier takes good care of her." At least she's much better off than with this jerk.

After a wave of pain in his stomach subsided, he slowly calmed down. He had long been accustomed to this kind of pain, and recently even he felt a bit repulsed by taking antacids, as if he wanted to punish himself with this suffering.

Everyone says Zhu Xiaowei is timid and afraid of things, but deep down he feels more weak and incompetent.

Lu Qinian saw through his thoughts and whispered, "You should coax your own wife back home properly. Don't really expect Qiao Baoer to take care of her."

Would Qiao Bao'er, that vixen, take care of people Don't be ridiculous.juries on her body, her clothes were torn, and her arms, lower abdomen, and even underarms were scratched and bleeding by branches. The physical pain had become numb, more than that, she was mentally...
