Mr. Pei frowned: "Is there really an agreement between you?"

Qiao Rui said calmly: "It's not an agreement either."

"Then what are you talking about?" Mr. Pei asked in displeasure.

"I told you to ask your grandson, it's useless to ask me." Qiao Rui didn't want to parrot her tongue: "I'm just a chess piece, and it's not up to me to decide where the chess player wants to go."

Mr. Pei was taken aback for a moment, his deep eyes swept across Qiao Rui's face, the little girl was so calm.

Then, he took the tea from Feng Ma and took a sip unhurriedly: "Since you know that you are a chess piece, you should have the awareness of a chess piece."

"Yes!" Qiao Rui said calmly, "Qiao Rui would like to follow Old Pei's teaching."

Mr. Pei choked, looked at Qiao Rui, and snorted again: "It would be strange if you could listen to me."

Qiao Rui lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes covered the light in her eyes.

That's true, she doesn't like to listen to other people's arrangements.

Mr. Pei couldn't see the expression on Qiao Rui's face, but felt that the black-rimmed glasses were too ugly, and his hair was messed up, making him look very uncomfortable.

"Show me your marriage certificate." The old man said again.

Qiao Rui nodded, went upstairs to get the marriage certificate, and showed it to the old man when she came back.

The old man looked at the photo, then at Qiao Rui, and said, "Although this photo is ugly, at least it looks better than you do now. Take off your glasses."

Qiao Rui sighed in her heart, the old man came here to find fault.

Fortunately, she was already prepared, otherwise, everything would be revealed.

Qiao Rui took off her glasses and faced Mr. Pei calmly.

Mr. Pei glanced at Qiao Rui, and immediately frowned. He thought it was a problem with his glasses, but he thought it would at least look better when he took them off.

But after taking it off, this face is still plain.

Especially the look with drooping eyelashes, he is not energetic at all, and it feels like he has not woken up.

The old man felt a little strange, this girl was very energetic when she refuted to him just now, but she looks not energetic at all.

This appearance really disappointed the old man, and he didn't hide anything, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Qiao Rui, you really wasted your parents' good genes, how did you grow up like this?"

When mentioning her parents, Qiao Rui froze for a moment and looked up at the old man.

At that moment, some kind of brilliance seemed to flash in her eyes, a kind of light that made people wonder.

In an instant, this girl gave people a strange feeling, as if she suddenly became agile.

People, it looks much more pleasing to the eye.

But, if you look closely, you still think it's too ugly.

Qiao Rui didn't expect the old man to mention her parents. She seldom heard news about her parents, but now she heard a little from the old man of the Pei family, she couldn't help being excited.

"You know my parents?"

"I watched your father grow up." Mr. Pei saw Qiao Rui's excitement, his eyes flashed, and he said, "That's an outstanding person, what a pity."

"What's the pity?" Qiao Rui asked.

"What's the pity?" The old man smiled playfully: "Girl, why don't you tell me what Pei Liyan promised you, and I'll also tell you some old things about your father?"

Mr. Pei had already noticed that Qiao Rui was curious about her father.

Therefore, he wanted to use this as a breakthrough to know his grandson's plan.

When Qiao Rui heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed across her eyes, "If you want to make a deal, you don't have to. I have nothing to say."

"Don't you want to know about your father?" Mr. Pei asked with a half-smile.

"Of course I do." Qiao Rui raised her eyes, her eyes met him calmly, and under the old man's sharp gaze, she put on her glasses without haste.

"Then you still refuse to exchange information?"

"Old Pei, if you insist on wasting time on me, then I can only say that you are disappointed." Qiao Rui said frankly, "I have nothing to say."

"Then you just don't want to know about your parents?"

"At first I really wanted it, but now I don't want it anymore. Qiao Rui knows very well that there will be no pies in the sky."

"Your temper is very similar to Pei Liyan!"

"I'm not like him."

"Oh?" Mr. Pei's eyes flickered with interest: "Do you know him?"

"I don't know, but I just know I'm different from him."

"You two are a little similar when you insist on one thing." The old man picked up the tea again, took a sip, put down the cup and said, "Forget it, your marriage won't last long anyway, so I don't need to ask any more questions."

Anyway, I can't ask.

The old man stood up and was about to leave.

Qiao Rui lowered her eyes: "Go slowly."

Mr. Pei looked at her again and said, "Girl, how old are you?"

"22 years old." Qiao Rui said.

"It's been 22 years, how time flies!" Before leaving, Mr. Pei sighed and said, "Your father, what a pity!"

When he finished speaking like this, Qiao Rui felt very sad.

She really wanted to know about her father, but the old man didn't say anything.

Watching Mr. Pei leave, Qiao Rui sat on the sofa and didn't move for a long time.

Her plain brows were covered with a layer of coldness, as if she had been stabbed to death by Mr. Pei, and her eyes were also frighteningly gloomy.

Feng's mother was worried that the old man said so many ugly things to her girl, so she immediately stepped forward to comfort her: "Ma'am, don't take it to heart."

Qiao Rui froze for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at Mama Feng with a worried face.

She pulled her lips, "Thank you Mama Feng, I'm fine."

Feng's mother naturally didn't believe it, and she was still comforting Qiao Rui: "Actually, the old man liked Miss Qiao's family before."

Qiao Rui didn't speak, and it wasn't the first time she heard the news.

Qiao Yufei said it.

But she didn't say a word. Feng's mother thought that Qiao Rui was angry, and quickly explained: "But the husband may not like Miss Qiao's family. Since he chose you, he must like you."

Jo Rui burst out laughing.

She didn't expect Mama Feng to be so kind and comfort herself like this.

Because she knew that Pei Liyan would definitely not like an ugly girl like herself, so the so-called choosing herself was just a choice that was most helpful to him after weighing the pros and cons.

that is it.

She is very clear.

She is not a nympho, and she is sober.

Naturally not daydreaming.

"Ma'am, what are you laughing at?" Mother Feng became even more worried, thinking that Qiao Rui was sad.

Laughing like this is scary.

"Don't be sad."

"Feng Ma, I'm not sad, thank you for comforting me, but I'm fine." Qiao Rui comforted Feng Ma instead. "Pei Liyan chose me not because he likes me, and I won't be his wife for too long, so naturally I won't be sad. You don't have to worry about me, I'm really good."

Feng's mother was stunned for a moment, she didn't understand.

Later, Mama Feng called Pei Liyan about the old man's visit.

He also truthfully reported Qiao Rui's reaction.

Pei Liyan was surprised.
