Chapter 547: Ex-Wife, Change

    

Qiao Baoer's face flushed with embarrassment, but after a moment of thought, she muttered, "If my son inherited his father's traits, then there shouldn't be any problems."When Jun Zhi Mu entered the d...Pei Haoran received a call from Zhu Xiaowei, he really thought it was auditory hallucination.

The voice on the other end of the phone was very calm, "Come to the outdoor cafe tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. If you have time, come over. There are some things I want to make clear to you."

After the call ended, Pei Haoran held his phone and stood by the glass window, staring at the scenery below. He was still in a daze.

He just got a new pair of silver-rimmed glasses, and there's still some bruising on his right cheek. Yesterday afternoon, he misunderstood that she went to a hotel with that yellow-haired Henry, and in a moment of anger, he fought with Henry.

Zhu Xiao Wei was very angry. He clearly remembered her looking at him then, the anger in her eyes, and the disappointment.

Pei Haoran knew he was a jerk. He shouldn't have suspected her of having inappropriate behavior with other men. He acted too impulsively and wanted to apologize to her properly. Before, she was especially soft-hearted and used to forgiving him. Now, she wouldn't be so lenient anymore. No matter how many apologies he made, it would be useless.

He currently resides in a six-star hotel in the center of Paris. After being released from the Paris police station for a brawl, he felt utterly dejected. Although during his youthful exuberance, he often traveled the world with Lu Qinian and the others, he had never been involved in a fight before. The pain on his body was excruciating, and his mood was even more irritable. This Paris felt like a nightmare to him.

He booked a flight, even thinking about going back home. Everyone has their own choices, and he didn't want to force Zhu Xiaowei anymore, disturbing her happiness.

He has never been a qualified husband, nor a good father, not even a good son.

He had long seen through it, that his whole life was dedicated to serving the Pei family. As for happiness, he didn't want to think about it, and he became numb.

“Does she really want to see me”

Pei Haoran felt it was a bit too sudden.

She spoke to him last night at the police station in such a cold tone that he thought she would never want to contact him again for the rest of her life.

"Did she forgive me"

Pei Haoran's eyes widened in surprise, and in an instant, he seemed to be fully revived. After a long time of frowning and worrying, the corners of his mouth finally twitched upwards into a smile.

He childishly called his secretary in the middle of the night, speaking cheerfully, "Helen, my wife told me to stay in Paris for a few more days. Cancel my flight for now, and we'll contact you when we know what time we're coming back.

Pei Haoran looked out the window again and thought that the scenery of Paris was quite pleasant, and his mood brightened.

She is willing to forgive me.

Compared to Jun Zhimu, who is always being tossed around by Qiao Baier, making him suffer internal injuries and having to go back to coax her. Zhu Xiaowei is more accustomed to spoiling him and is very tolerant of him, which even Jun Zhimu envies him for.

Pei Haoran is proud of his married life. As long as Zhu Xiaowei returns, he swears he will make an effort to change and make her happy.

The sky outside started from pitch black, gradually turning gray and then faintly white.

The soft morning sunlight bathed the city, fresh air filled the streets bustling with cars and people, full of vitality.

Since Pei Haoran received Zhu Xiaowei's phone call, he couldn't sleep because his nerves were too excited. He sat up in bed many times and frequently went to the bathroom to look in the mirror, paying close attention to his appearance and clothing with some nervousness.

When he arrived at the reserved outdoor cafe an hour early, he fidgeted nervously, looking around and occasionally glancing down at his phone. "She should be here," he muttered to himself.

However, Zhu Xiaowei used to always arrive early for their dates. She was in the habit of waiting for people, fearing that being late would cause trouble.

However, Pei Haoran watched as time slipped away. They had agreed to meet at 10 am, but it was now 9:50 am, and she still hadn't shown up.

Pei Haoran really wanted to call her directly, but he hesitated.

He sighed, knowing he shouldn't ask for more now. If she changed her mind and didn't want to see him, he would understand.

But, won't she run into gangsters on the way

Pei Haoran started to worry, Paris wasn't as safe as home. Those with bad intentions would see her as small and easy to bully. What if they swarmed her like the last time she delivered food...

Pei Haoran frowned, staring at the watch on his wrist. Time ticked by, each second agonizingly slow.

At 9:59, Zhu Xiaowei's taxi came to a stop. She got out and walked straight toward him.

At nearly 10 o'clock, she sat down opposite him.

The moment she appeared, Pei Haoran's mind went blank. All the thoughts he had been having vanished, and he felt a little slow to react.

"...You, you came." I didn't know what to say, my voice was even a little shaky.

Zhu Xiaowei's expression was calm, she just nodded at him.

Her attitude was more like seeing a client, going through the motions.

Your arrival has brought a lot of trouble into my life.

She went straight to the point, her tone devoid of reproach, very level.

"Since we no longer have children, there's no need to force our marriage any longer. I hope in the future, we can live our lives separately and without disturbing each other."

Pei Haoran was stunned. The words shattered all his previous fantasies into ashes.

She meant that she asked him out to meet wasn't because she forgave him, but to completely cut off ties with him. She also said that his arrival disrupted her life.

Before, Zhu Xiaowei would never say such things. Even if she was wronged or suffered a small loss, she always said that harmony is most important.

Now she feels so strange to him.

"As for Henry, I can apologize to him in person." After all, Pei Haoran was a smart man who had been in the business world for a long time, and he quickly regained his composure.

"About the child, I know you are very sad and heartbroken. With the child gone, I am also deeply saddened. In the future, I will do my best to make amends..."

"What have you done for the children!"

Zhu Xiaowei, holding back her excitement, replied solemnly.

Pei Haoran was taken aback and looked at her.

Zhu Xiaowei spoke slowly, without sharp or sarcastic language. It was very bland, like she was telling someone else's story. "When I first found out I was pregnant, you advised me to have an abortion because you were afraid Pei Yi wouldn't be able to accept it. After I ran away from home in a fit of anger, you allowed me to raise the child and give birth outside the family. You say, why do I keep clinging to living so humbly in your Pei family"

At that time, she only loved him. Now what

Pei Haoran's mind was in a mess. He knew he had wronged her, but she had never complained. At this moment, hearing her calmly recount the past, every word of hers struck his heart, leaving him feeling ashamed and humiliated.

Do you know how children have miscarriages

Zhu Xiaowei lowered her gaze, trying to keep her voice steady.

That day, when you came to the hospital to see me, I was touched. Even if you just came to buy me lunch. Halfway through the meal, you took Guan Lei's phone call and without explaining anything to me, you hurried off.

"Compared to Guan Lei and Pei Yi, I'm very clear about where the Pei family ranks me. I've been used to being ignored since I was a child. To you, I've always been dispensable. That's why you feel no pressure being with me, treating me like a toy, playing with me when you remember. Who can blame you It's all my own doing."

Pei Haoran had never heard about these things she was saying, and immediately felt anxious as he wanted to explain, "Zhu Xiaowei, listen to me..."

"I heard you talking on the phone with Guan Lei, you mentioned pediatrics. I was worried something happened to Pei Yi and went downstairs to find you..." Zhu Xiao Wei seemed to give him no chance to speak, continuing in a calm, indifferent tone.

"I stood at the door of your ward, and suddenly someone covered my mouth and nose from behind, dragging my hair. I was terrified, tears streaming down my face, struggling desperately. I wish so much that you could have turned around and seen me..."

"Just two meters away, you are in the ward, you and Guan Lei embrace together."

"Just like countless times before, you ignored me, ignored the child. I was dragged by that man to the hospital stairwell and pushed down the stairs."

"Pei Haoran, do you know how much pain I was in then"

Her body throbbed with excruciating pain, a torrent of blood surging from her lower body. She hated that he hadn't even glanced back at her. More than anything, she hated herself for going downstairs to care about those people who had always hurt her. She wouldn't be so pathetic anymore.led to deter the threat. Qiao Bao'er, enraged, kicked the door with a loud bang and snarled, "If anything happens to Xiao Zhuzi, I'll tear you apart limb from limb tomorrow!"One could faintly hear Mo...
