Chapter 25: Chapter 25: An Opportunity to Exploit

Qiao Yufei successfully infiltrated Pei Liyan’s villa, feeling quite pleased with herself. She took out her phone, snapped a few selfies, and posted them on social media.

Qiao Rui Danran glanced at her indifferently, but didn’t stop her.

Just like that, Qiao Rui let Qiao Yufei post selfies, sharing the situation of the Pei Liyan’s mansion’s hall with the world.

She sat quietly to one side, leisurely and contentedly.

Before long, Mrs. Feng brought them food and drinks, and Qiao Rui took her tea to enjoy the refreshments.

Qiao Yufei also took a sip of tea and noticed that Mrs. Feng was still lingering.

She spoke up, "Mrs. Feng, you can go about your work, I want to chat with my sister for a bit."

Mrs. Feng felt a bit irritated at being dismissed by Qiao Yufei, especially when she saw the ostensibly bullied state of Qiao Rui, which made her even more concerned.

Therefore, Mrs. Feng didn’t leave.

Qiao Yufei asked again, "Mrs. Feng, aren’t you leaving?"

Having been spoken to at such lengths, it would no longer be proper for Mrs. Feng to stay, so she reluctantly departed.

Reaching a corner where she was out of sight, she paused for a moment, in case Qiao Rui was bullied and she needed to intervene.

Qiao Rui continued to eat.

Seeing that Mrs. Feng had left, Qiao Yufei quickly lowered her voice and asked, "Qiao Rui, did you sleep with Pei Liyan last night?"

"No," Qiao Rui replied. "I’m grown up, why should I sleep with him? I’m not a scaredy-cat."

Qiao Yufei saw a flash of delight in her eyes.

They hadn’t slept together yet!

Just as she thought, there was no way Pei Liyan could fancy someone like Qiao Rui, the plain and ugly country girl.

"You’re right, you shouldn’t sleep together," Qiao Yufei said with a smile, clearly relieved, and her tone of speech became more deliberate. "He’s going to divorce you later, it would be a disadvantage to you if you had slept together."

Qiao Rui nodded, then asked, seemingly offhand, "Second sister, are you planning to sleep with Pei Liyan?"

Qiao Yufei blushed, responding in all seriousness, "Don’t talk nonsense. I am the second daughter of the Qiao Family, I wouldn’t stoop so low."

At that moment, Mrs. Feng, hidden around the corner, scoffed. Offering herself on a platter and still claiming not to be lowly, could there be anything more despicable?

"Is that so?" Qiao Rui’s tone clearly carried skepticism.

"You don’t believe me?" Qiao Yufei became a bit anxious.

Qiao Rui nodded, "That’s right, I don’t believe you, second sister. It seems to me you really want to sleep with Pei Liyan."

"Qiao Rui, what on earth are you thinking about?"

"I’m just thinking about something delicious," Qiao Rui said nonchalantly. "Second sister, the pastries made by Mrs. Feng are really delicious, much better than what cake shops sell. Do you want to try some?"

Looking at the pastries that glistened with grease, Qiao Yufei’s brow furrowed.

Eating too much of this kind of thing will make you fat. Are you trying to become a fatso?"

Qiao Rui didn’t mind at all.

When she had been an actress, everything was restricted, and now that she had finally escaped, she naturally wanted to relax for a while, especially since she was the type who never gained weight no matter what she ate.

"Go ahead, eat. You’re already ugly, so you don’t have much to lose," Qiao Yufei added. "If you love it, then eat more."

"Then I’ll eat it all," Qiao Rui continued to enjoy the feast. "I’m not lying, Mrs. Feng’s pastries really are too delicious."

Mrs. Feng, overhearing how much Qiao Rui loved her pastries, couldn’t be happier.

Good cooking skills must be appreciated by others.

But Qiao Yufei’s words served as a wake-up call, to use less oil and sugar next time, so as not to let the lady gain weight too quickly.

"You eat it," Qiao Yufei handed over the plate in front of her. "By the way, what does Pei Liyan generally like to eat?"

"I don’t know," Qiao Rui answered. "Why should I care what he likes to eat?"

"To cater to his preferences," instructed Qiao Yufei.

"Why?"

"Forget it, I’ll be living here from now on, so I’ll have plenty of time to observe," Qiao Yufei said, relieved by Qiao Rui’s apparent indifference to Pei Liyan.

Anyway, all of their cousins had agreed that Qiao Rui wouldn’t stay at the Pei Family for long and would probably be swept out the door soon.

At that time, given the relationship between the Qiao Family and the Pei Family, they would likely arrange another marriage.

She saw an opportunity.

She should be grateful that the person who married Pei Liyan was Qiao Rui; if it were any of the other sisters, the outcome was predictable.

Those sisters were no easy pushovers.

Qiao Yufei’s eyes shimmered as she glanced at Qiao Rui, who was still eating.

At a time like this, all she could think about was eating. She really was a foodie.

"Qiao Rui, could you take me upstairs for a look?" Qiao Yufei asked.

"To see what?" Qiao Rui inquired.

"Your room," Qiao Yufei said.

"It’s just a place to sleep. What’s there to see?" Qiao Rui replied indifferently, "Hasn’t the second sister ever seen a room before?"

Qiao Yufei gritted her teeth. "I want to see Pei Liyan’s room."

"Oh, no one is allowed to see his room. No one can go in," Qiao Rui said, "He told me that yesterday."

"Really?" Qiao Yufei raised an eyebrow. "You can’t even enter his room?"

"Yeah!" Qiao Rui admitted unabashedly.

"I see." Qiao Yufei’s gaze drifted towards the stairs. "Let’s go have a peek secretly."

Qiao Rui watched with inward amusement as Qiao Yufei was very keen to go upstairs to see Pei Liyan’s room.

What was so interesting about a room?

Qiao Yufei was truly incomprehensible.

"I don’t want to," Qiao Rui shook her head. "I still want to eat, second sister. You shouldn’t go either, he will scold you when he returns."

"Alright, I got it. You eat then, I’ll just walk around, not going into his room," Qiao Yufei said and then went upstairs.

Qiao Rui watched Qiao Yufei’s retreating figure with a sly smile curving her lips.

Miss Qiao the second, with her curiosity, definitely wouldn’t be able to resist. She was bound to go see Pei Liyan’s room.

As soon as Qiao Yufei was upstairs, Mrs. Feng immediately came over, whispering to Qiao Rui, "Madam, Miss Qiao the second can’t stay here. Listen to Mrs. Feng and make her leave quickly."

"Ah?" Qiao Rui looked at Mrs. Feng, understanding that she was worried for her well-being.

She looked anxious, concern written all over her eyes for Qiao Rui’s sake.

Touched, Qiao Rui smiled to reassure her, "Mrs. Feng, if I ask her to leave, she will definitely be unhappy and will find a way to come back. It’s better to wait for Mr. Pei to send her away. Don’t worry, your master is not someone to be trifled with."

Mrs. Feng was taken aback and then saw the wisdom in Qiao Rui’s words.

It seemed the lady of the house was not as naive as she had thought.

She felt a bit more at ease.

"Mrs. Feng, you can go ahead with your work. Mr. Pei should be back soon, right?" Qiao Rui reminded her.

"Oh, I’ll go cook right away. The master will be back soon," Mrs. Feng responded and went to the kitchen to get busy.

Pei Liyan returned to the villa at five forty.

Qiao Rui was not downstairs.

He went straight upstairs, opened the door of his room, and immediately took off his jacket, intending to head to the bathroom.

By the time he reached the door, his shirt was already unbuttoned, revealing his well-built torso.

But as soon as he opened the door, he was confronted with a scantily clad woman in his bathroom.

He instantly flew into a rage, "Qiao Rui!"
