Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Won’t Laugh at You, Just Look Down on You

Mrs. Feng jumped with fright and hurried away.

Qiao Rui remained calm throughout, looking at Pei Liyan with a skeptical tone, she said, "Mr. Pei, you seem to be infuriated. Could it be that you’ve violated the three Chapters of the agreement and cheated in the past few days?"

Pei Liyan was shocked and looked at the calmly spoken Qiao Rui. Her lazy gaze through her glasses gave him a heart-pounding feeling.

His face darkened, and his handsome face was immediately covered with frost, his mind still filled with many doubts that surged forth.

Her words were not without basis; she hinted at something.

The man’s eyes narrowed coldly, deep and filled with gloomy cruelty, resembling a bottomless abyss, which startled Qiao Rui as well.

She knew that her question would provoke his suspicions.

But she did it on purpose.

With Pei Liyan’s eagle-like gaze fixed on her, Qiao Rui’s heart tightened. She gripped her chopsticks tightly but then gave a faint smile and asked, "Did you really violate the three Chapters of the agreement?"

Pei Liyan was stunned, his pupils jumping several times. He spoke in a gloomy voice, "Do you know that you are provoking me?"

Qiao Rui said lightly. "I don’t think it’s a provocation; it was unintentional. To my surprise, it turned out this way, Mr. Pei. You were the one who proposed the three Chapters, and you didn’t adhere to them. Can’t you do it?"

"Do you have the right to negotiate terms with me?" Pei Liyan asked coldly.

"No." Qiao Rui answered indifferently.

Perhaps it was the girl’s frank tone that made the man’s originally cold expression soften slightly.

Indeed, he was guilty.

Although he wasn’t keen on this arranged marriage, he hadn’t fulfilled a promise he had made as a man.

He was just about to say something pleasant when Qiao Rui interjected.

"Mr. Pei, to speak frankly, it’s embarrassing to break a promise, but it’s even more embarrassing to become infuriated over it. You don’t need to feel ashamed; I won’t really laugh at you." As she spoke, Qiao Rui smiled slightly again.

"Qiao Rui!" Pei Liyan shouted.

Unable to hold back, Qiao Rui laughed out loud, "At most, I just despise you."

After speaking, Qiao Rui shoveled the last bite of rice into her mouth.

Had it not been for Mrs. Feng’s delicious cooking, she would probably have had a falling out with Pei Liyan today.

Forget it, considering Mrs. Feng’s excellent culinary skills, on par with a top chef, she decided to wear this cuckold cap well.

After all, she was putting it on herself.

Thinking this, she actually felt happy.

But Pei Liyan, unaware of the truth, was probably going to be miserably upset.

Seeing him never defeated, and suddenly being countered like this today, it truly made her day as he was infuriated.

Pei Liyan felt an urge to strangle Qiao Rui, watching her leisurely finish her meal and even elegantly wipe her mouth with a napkin, which seemed surprisingly graceful.

No!

It was all pretense, dammit.

Pei Liyan now felt an irritating urge; he was usually unflappable, but today, Qiao Rui’s retorts nearly made him lose his usual composure and calm, unable to suppress the anger in his eyes.

And then she even asked him, "Do you really need to go warm the bed for my elder sister?"

"Of course I do," Pei Liyan said through gritted teeth.

Qiao Rui said, "Then let’s go!"

Pei Liyan sneered, "You just said you look down on me?"

Qiao Rui was stunned, her eyes slyly shifting as she countered, "Then Mr. Pei, do you respect yourself when you break a promise?"

"Qiao Rui!" Pei Liyan’s voice deepened.

Qiao Rui was not afraid at all, smiling lightly, she said. "Mr. Pei, don’t be angry. We’re just discussing matters. Anger is bad for your health."

Pei Liyan tried to calm his emotions.

Before Qiao Rui could hold back, she fired another salvo, "But you can’t even control your own libido, so it would be a miracle if you could suppress your emotions and control your temper."

At this point, Pei Liyan was certain that Qiao Rui was deliberately provoking him.

Maybe not provocation, more like teasing and mocking him.

He had always felt this country bumpkin possessed an extraordinary ability to control the situation, always setting the pace.

Whenever she wanted, she could do it.

And now, it seemed to be true.

In just a few minutes, she had nearly driven him to jump and scream multiple times.

This damn girl was too damn good.

Pei Liyan was the type of person who, when extremely furious, could actually become calm.

He quickly adjusted his mood, slightly tugged at his lips, and countered, "You keep bringing this up, gifting me bullwhip tonic and mocking me, making fun of my inability to control my libido, are you jealous?"

Qiao Rui was startled inside and suddenly noticed that this man had regained his composure, which also surprised her.

Just moments ago he was about to explode, yet he managed to calm himself instantly, which was indeed extraordinary.

She smiled, "Mr. Pei really flatters me, I certainly don’t have the right to be jealous."

"You look pretty jealous to me," Pei Liyan said sarcastically.

Qiao Rui replied calmly, "Not really, but, I’d kindly remind Mr. Pei, don’t make promises you can’t keep, it makes you look very low."

The anger Pei Liyan had finally suppressed flared up again.

Qiao Rui walked towards the exit.

She wasn’t keen on going to Qiao Xiang’s place, but she felt that after igniting Pei Liyan’s anger this evening, he probably wouldn’t let Qiao Xiang have an easy time.

Why not go and watch the show? She was free anyway, it’d be observing human nature, experiencing the various facets of life.

Pei Liyan felt his blood pressure rising.

He scoffed coldly, watching the bumpkin walk ahead of him with a deep sense of mockery in his eyes.

"Are you really going dressed like that?"

Qiao Rui looked back at the man, dubiously saying, "I asked you earlier, Mr. Pei. If I don’t go, it might embarrass you, but if you insist on me going, then you’ll just have to turn a blind eye to my ’countriness.’"

Pei Liyan was stunned for a moment, finding himself unexpectedly outmaneuvered.

"Qiao Rui, well done, you’re really something!" Pei Liyan ground his teeth, fighting the urge to strangle her.

Qiao Rui smiled lightly. "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Pei, I also think I’m quite good."

Pei Liyan was instantly speechless; he hadn’t been complimenting her at all.

She did it on purpose, she must have.

Qiao Rui continued walking forward.

As she walked, she asked Pei Liyan, "Did my elder sister tell you which building she’s living in?"

"You know she’s moved here?" Pei Liyan was a bit surprised.

Qiao Rui nodded. "The day I went to the countryside, I saw my sister jogging outside, she said she’d be your neighbor."

Pei Liyan was taken aback, then counter-asked, "You know she wants to be my neighbor and you have no reaction?"

"What reaction should I have?" Qiao Rui shook her head. "Mr. Pei, you really are strange."

Pei Liyan felt a tightness in his chest, frustrated.

She knew the purpose of Qiao Xiang living here, yet she could still be so indifferent.

No, she knew about his possible infidelities, and still managed to face it calmly and tease him; this girl was indeed very clear-headed.

Pei Liyan suddenly realized, this country girl’s personality was quite interesting.
