Chapter 375: Chapter 375: Why Aren’t You Continuing to Pretend to Be Ugly

Pei Qiuhua saw the video of Qiao Xiang being filmed in Liancheng, it showed a few segments of her at the police station. Those were enough to explain the situation.

"Is this Xiang?" Pei Qiuhua asked uncertainly.

"Yes, it’s her." He Lan nodded. "I know you can’t accept that she’s that kind of person right now, it’s alright, take your time to observe."

Pei Qiuhua frowned slightly, his gaze thoughtful. "Although I don’t know why you think so, I suppose you have your own reasons, and Qiao Rui is indeed very charming, even Jibai was captivated by her, my brother also thinks she’s great now. I just don’t understand, what’s wrong with you all? Maybe this is the magic of Qiao Rui!"

"Don’t look at her with tinted glasses." He Lan said: "I admit I was initially misled, actually, who Pei Dage marries and spends his time with is his own freedom and has nothing to do with us, right?"

"Who my brother marries is very important to our family." Pei Qiuhua sighed: "I still can’t accept Qiao Rui, she must be a woman with many tricks."

He Lan looked at her and frowned: "No matter how many tricks she has, it’s not as many as Qiao Xiang, who uses everyone. Just wait, she will definitely use you too."

As he was speaking, Pei Qiuhua’s phone rang.

She looked down and saw it was a call from Qiao Xiang.

Pei Qiuhua was slightly startled, speak of the devil.

"Let me take this call first."

"It’s Qiao Xiang!" Pei Qiuhua glanced at the caller ID on the phone, which happened to flash two characters: Qiao Xiang.

She promptly answered the call.

"Xiang, what’s up?"

"Qiuhua, you left in such a hurry earlier, I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye. I want to invite you for dinner tonight, do you have some time?" Qiao Xiang asked on the phone.

"Dinner together?" Pei Qiuhua said: "I’m having dinner with my brother and sister-in-law tonight."

"Sister-in-law?" Qiao Xiang keenly sensed the bias in Pei Qiuhua’s words and furrowed her brows involuntarily.

"Yeah, it’s Qiao Rui." Pei Qiuhua replied.

"Oh, I see." Qiao Xiang was momentarily stunned and said: "Then let’s do dinner tomorrow night?"

"Sure." Pei Qiuhua didn’t refuse. "See you tomorrow night then!"

"Okay." Qiao Xiang hesitated for a moment before hanging up the phone and asked: "Did your brother say why you’re all having dinner?"

Pei Qiuhua frowned slightly, she didn’t like people prying into gossip, and Qiao Xiang’s move made her uncomfortable.

"Do siblings need a reason to have dinner together?" Pei Qiuhua retorted.

"Oh, no, I didn’t mean it that way." Qiao Xiang immediately said: "I spoke out of turn, sorry, Qiuhua, let’s leave it at that."

She quickly hung up the phone.

Pei Qiuhua felt uneasy and gave He Lan a glance.

He Lan chuckled and said: "Was she prying into gossip about my teacher?"

Pei Qiuhua said nothing.

"It’s normal, she’s always trying to stir up rumors about Pei Dage, my teacher, she just wants to create trouble." He Lan muttered: "And to think, when choosing a wife back then, where was she running off to!"

Pei Qiuhua frowned: "Why wasn’t she there back then?"

"I guess she was being pretentious, thinking she was so important, not showing up but Pei Dage would still choose her, but it ended up backfiring." He Lan said irritably: "Pretentious people do pretentious things."

Pei Qiuhua pondered while holding her teacup, "Anyhow, I still hope she isn’t the type of person you’re talking about."

"Then slowly savor the taste of it." He Lan chuckled: "There’s no rush, you’ll know eventually!"

While the two were eating, He Zheng approached them, and seeing He Lan and Pei Qiuhua, he was also surprised.

"Qiuhua, He Lan, what are you doing here?"

"Brother, what kind of question is that? Why can’t we eat here?" He Lan, seeing his brother, wanted to bicker: "What’s up with you? Here with some wild girl?"

He Zheng looked at He Lan speechlessly: "You sure have a great image of me."

"Oh, I forgot you’re the super invincible big boy." He Lan laughed mischievously: "Qiuhua, let me tell you, my brother is still a pure-hearted virgin, he hasn’t actually been with those female companions, just teasing them without any substantial action!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Qiuhua exclaimed in shock: "Ah? Really?"

She cast a curious glance at He Zheng, and upon seeing his handsome face, she suddenly blushed.

"He Lan, if you keep messing around, I’ll really get angry!" He Zheng came over and said to them: "I’ll pick up the tab later, don’t worry about it, Qiuhua, eat more."

"Ah, Brother He Zheng, we’ll pay for ourselves." Pei Qiuhua wanted to refuse.

"Don’t worry about it." He Zheng called a waiter and handed them a card. "This table, put it on my account."

"Sure, Mr. He!"

Only then did He Zheng nod slightly to them and turn to leave.

Watching him leave, Pei Qiuhua’s eyes momentarily glimmered with a hint of shyness.

He Lan glanced at her and teased: "Qiuhua, do you like my brother?"

"Ah?" Pei Qiuhua suddenly felt embarrassed. "What are you talking about?"

"You don’t like him?" He Lan looked as if she surely did, why was she embarrassed to admit it?

Pei Qiuhua blushed red, "By the way, you said earlier your brother is a pure-hearted big boy, what’s up with that?"

"Truth or dare, he admitted it himself." He Lan said: "How’s that? Didn’t expect it, did you?"

Pei Qiuhua nodded. "I definitely didn’t expect Brother He Zheng to be that kind of pure-hearted boy."

"People shouldn’t be judged by appearances." He Lan sighed: "Anyway, I’m impressed now, my brother is unexpectedly pure-hearted, that was unexpected, Qiao Rui is not clumsy, that was unexpected too, and Qiao Xiang is not kind, that was even more unexpected."

Pei Qiuhua thought of when Qiao Xiang wanted to know why they’re dining together earlier, her internal balance indeed tilted.

In the afternoon, Pei Liyan called Qiao Rui, "Dinner with Qiuhua tonight, I’ll come pick you up."

"So sudden?" Qiao Rui was somewhat surprised. "Why didn’t you mention it earlier?"

"It’s all among ourselves, doesn’t feel like much preparation is needed." Pei Liyan said.

"Alright then." Qiao Rui nodded. "You arrange it."

"Alright, I’ll make the reservations." Pei Liyan said: "Do you prefer Western or Chinese cuisine?"

"Western cuisine." Qiao Rui said: "I haven’t had it in a long time, feel like having Western food."

"Alright!" Pei Liyan directly reserved at a Western restaurant.

In the evening, he picked Qiao Rui up to head to the Western restaurant.

Pei Qiuhua also arrived, knowing it would be Western dining, she appeared all dressed up.

The three of them met at the entrance of the Western restaurant.

Pei Qiuhua glanced at Qiao Rui, was slightly surprised again.

It had been quite a while since the Pei Family banquet, she seemed to have become even prettier.

Pei Qiuhua was very surprised, reaffirmed Qiao Rui as a scheming girl, deliberately playing ugly.

She snorted lightly and said: "Sister-in-law, why aren’t you continuing to play ugly anymore?"
