Being forced into marrying a concubine

  "Where did you go?!" He got angry seeing her like this!

  She is nakedly deceiving him!

  She hastily gasped for air and tried to shake his hand off, but he didn't let go. Instead, he said "Huh?" again, more heavily this time. She could only say, "I'm going to a friend's place."

  As soon as the sentence was finished, the remote control on the table was slapped hard by the man, and the curtains slowly closed. The light in the room began to change, with only the cold light of the office's fluorescent lamp, and the sunlight outside could no longer shine into the room.

  The office is very large, and when the curtains are pulled open, there's a psychological hint that makes you feel the room has become quieter. After it becomes quiet, you feel the space is even larger.

  This made Shen Xuan somewhat nervous, being oppressed by this man to the point of difficulty, "Pei Jin Cheng, have you gone mad? Do you want to perform a mental drama every now and then?"

  "Are you crazy? If one day I go mad, before that happens, I'll make sure to drive you mad first! As husband and wife are birds in the same forest, when disaster strikes, I won't let you fly away first. So, you'd better beg me not to drive you mad!"

  He pressed one hand on her shoulder, and the other slapped on her cheek, flipping it left and right to check if there was something on her neck that he didn't want to see. Her neck was as smooth as jade, then quickly unbuttoned her shirt, she struggled, he suppressed.

  Until he undressed her, there was still no sign of passion afterwards, he was very annoyed, every time he came back with the smell of that place on his body, how could there be no trace on his body?

  But he also found it laughable, so in the end was he hoping she had it or didn't have it?

  "Are you crazy?" She thought this man was sick, coming in and taking off her clothes, what a big pervert! Reaching out to put on her own clothes, but being stopped by him. Fighting back but unable to win, pushing but unable to move him. In the past, she had at least carried him to the bathroom to bathe, could it be that she hadn't exercised in a long time and now couldn't even beat him?

  Go back to the house. Beautiful eyes rolled, also thick anger, "Can you afford to be crazy? Are you not going to marry a concubine? The beauty is about to conceive, if you go crazy, won't you wrong the beauty?"

  Her frosty phoenix eyes suddenly had a hint of smile that was almost imperceptible, and after retracting it, he playfully teased at the right moment, "Are you... jealous?"

  Xuan clenched her fists, "Pei Jin Cheng, what era are we in now? You're still taking a concubine!"

  She said this with a straight face and a serious tone, his mouth slowly solidified, thin lips pursed, pulled her up, turned her around, took off the shirt from her body, no marks on her back, only then did he put her clothes back on again.

  "Didn't Grandpa tell you clearly?"

  Shen Xuan listened and shrugged her shoulders, shaking off Pei Jin Cheng's hand. She dressed herself in her undergarments and buttoned them up, "I didn't agree."

  "Tell me the reason for your disagreement." He turned around and walked away, sitting on the sofa in the guest area, with his legs crossed. The man had a refined and elegant face, and at this time, he was wearing a suit, with a cold and solemn expression, which added a sense of maturity and dignity to him, carrying an air of dominance, when he said these words, there was a condescending tone.

  She looked at him with a calm and composed expression, but her anger was burning inside. "Nowadays, it's all about monogamy, and the Shens will also oppose it if they find out! If that's the case, I'd rather get a divorce."

  "Divorce?" Pei Jin Cheng's eyes narrowed, the light in his eyes suddenly dimmed, and the turmoil inside could no longer be seen. "So, if I were to marry Bai Shan as a concubine, you would divorce me?"

  "Right, if that's the case, I can get the property I deserve." Shen Xuan knew that the Pei family had always attached great importance to their wealth, and it couldn't be said that they loved money like their lives depended on it. It was just that each family managed their affairs differently, and it was rare for a family like the Peis to become wealthy enough to rival a country.

  And if it really comes to divorce, as Xin Tian said, this is not a matter of tens or hundreds of millions. When the Shens took out so much money back then, she would have no face to show to the Shens' family even if she left with nothing, although the Shens might magnanimously say they don't care.

  But she can't help but care, if it really comes to divorce, what belongs to her will be hers, and she won't give up a single penny.

  At this point, it's impossible to win Pei Jin Cheng's heart. Xīn Tián said, making the worst assumption, maybe we can still win!

  "Property?" Pei Jin's eyes turned cold, at this time, she was actually thinking about divorce and dividing property? His fists slowly clenched, but not tightly, so that no one could see his emotions.

  "Isn't that right?" Xintian said. When you can't get a man's heart, take his money instead, the more the better. A man's career success or failure is directly linked to his assets. When his assets are drained by you, he will remember you for life.

  What a ridiculous logic, yet she still ridiculously tried to probe like this, obviously, her probing was successful. As Xin Tian said, a man who doesn't love you cares more about their assets. Pei Jin Cheng said forgivingly, "Let's put the divorce on hold for now, go to work. I won't be home for dinner tonight."

  "Alright." Shen Xuan took a deep breath, straightened her back and walked out of the CEO's office.

  Bai Jincheng looked at Shen Xuan's back and thought to himself, this woman...

  At night, the moon sheds its silvery light on the flowing river, and the ripples sparkle like a treasure trove of jewels.

  Pei's Mansion Garden

  There is a fragrance of tea in the study, and three people are sitting beside the tea table.

  Pei Li, Bai Liwei and Pei Jin Cheng.

  Pei Jin Cheng's tea-making skills were not great, but he was very particular about drinking tea. Normally, he didn't drink tea, but the old master's brewed tea, he would drink. In this mansion, only the old master's tea water was collected by Ah Shan from the dew on the flowers in the garden early in the morning.

  The old man's tea-making process is also very particular, with good water, good tea, and a skilled hand to brew the tea, the taste of this tea is naturally different.

  The small cup in front of the nose moves gently, with eyes closed to savor the aroma entering the nostrils. After inhaling, the tea in the hand is poured into the mouth in one gulp, and the throat feels a rich, scalding, and sticky sensation, making the whole body feel comfortable and relaxed.

  Bai Liwei was delighted by Pei Li's personal tea-brewing skills, and his eyes lit up with joy as he drank the tea.

  Pai's Buddhist beads were worn on his wrist, and his two pale hands moved slowly but did not stop.

  "Old Master's craftsmanship is really good, after drinking your tea, I'm afraid no one else's can be drunk anymore."

  Pei Li held the small purple sand teacup, filled his cup in front of him to the brim, lifted it to his nose, closed his eyes and savored the aroma, then took a sip. When he put the cup down, he smiled, "Li Wei, you're praising me so much that I'm starting to feel proud of myself, haha."

  Pei Li said, the small purple sand tea cup was handed over to Bai Liwei's cup again, tilted, and Bai Liwei held his hands together, surrounding the position of the cup, carefully and flatteringly saying, "Where did the old master say that? This craftsmanship is placed here, where can it be boasted about? I'm afraid someone wants to drink a mouthful of tea from the old master, but it's as difficult as ascending to heaven."

  "What's difficult about it? Just come here often to drink tea in the future. There's nothing much else here, but plenty of tea, haha."

  "Then thank you, old master." Bai Liwei took another sip of tea, his smile was unstoppable, and when he finally managed to compose himself, he looked at Pei Jincheng, "Jincheng, have you set a date for your wedding with Shanshan? Why don't we discuss it with the old master today?"

  Pei Jin Cheng's mouth corners slightly raised, his handsome face didn't show any unusual expression, he just stretched out his long body, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured boiling water into it. He repeatedly pressed the tea leaves with a utensil, pouring the remaining tea from Pei Li's cup into the tea tray's filter, then refilled the teapot with fresh tea water, first pouring a cup for Pei Li, then one for Bai Liwei, and finally one for himself.

  After taking a deep breath of the fragrance, he drank it all in one gulp, and then said with a face full of satisfaction, "Actually, I've always thought that the second and third infusions of tea leaves are the most fragrant. What does Uncle Bai think?"

  Bai Liwei held the cup in his hand and glanced at Pei Li.

  Pei Li just glanced at Pei Jin Cheng with a sidelong glance, didn't say a word, and continued to play with the tea set on his own, looking carefree.

  Bai Liwei's face flashed a hint of embarrassment, "Jin Cheng is right, everything has its own process, and can't be rushed."

  "Uncle Bai, please have some tea first. Although the second brew of tea is fragrant, if it's left for too long, the fragrance will fade and the heat will dissipate, and the taste won't be as good."

  Bai Liwei thought that when it came to Tai Chi, Pei Li was not his match, and he sincerely believed that. But as for Pei Jin Cheng, he still didn't think he could be defeated. He took a sip of tea, put the cup on the table, "Jin Cheng, the matter with Shan Shan is like this tea, I think it's time to stop dragging it out. What do you think? Which country should we register in? Or you can discuss it with Shan Shan?"

  His eyes were distant, and the depths of his phoenix-like eyes seemed bottomless. "This matter, I need to discuss with Ah Xuan first, White Uncle also knows that in a big family like ours, taking a concubine is definitely something that needs to be discussed with Madam first."

  Bai Liwei took the teacup from Pei Jincheng's hand, regained control of the situation, and poured himself a cup of tea. He spoke bluntly, "Jincheng, if it weren't for the fact that Xuanxuan only has you in her heart, I wouldn't have come to say this. My daughter almost died for your sake, and if it weren't for Shen Xuan, you two would already be married. But saying all this is useless now. I made my conditions very clear earlier: once Xuanxuan enters the Pei household, let her settle down, and I'll hand over the evidence of Shen Xuan's kidnapping to you. It seems that you think the Bai family doesn't have the ability to send Shen Xuan to jail..."

  Pei Jin Cheng's thin lips were pursed into a line, his eyes slowly narrowed, and a faint smile emerged, but the smile was slightly chilly...

  Third watch is over, see you all tomorrow. Remember to think of 99, love 99, no scolding or blaming 99, not even in your heart, or you'll get spanked.
