Although there were some ups and downs, Bai Tao finally helped Pei Shi celebrate his birthday. Pei Shi did not show much emotion on this birthday, but Bai Tao's intuition told her that this man was actually very happy.
After all, I got the dog I had always dreamed of as a birthday gift, so why should I be unhappy
Speaking of dogs, Bai Tao made an emergency call to a psychological interventionist that night, and did some self-psychological preparation. Only then did she gradually calm down and go down the stairs tremblingly.
Perhaps in order to keep the puppy, hoping that Bai Tao would really accept it, Pei Shi stayed by Bai Tao's side very patiently throughout the whole process, almost to the point of not leaving her side.
"I'm standing between you and the dog, and I'm holding the dog leash. If you're scared, I'll take the dog away immediately, and the dog will never touch you."
He glanced at Bai Tao, then hung up the call again.
"Is it an important call?" Bai Tao pointed at Pei Shi's phone. "The person you signed as 'Lawyer Gao' has called you five or six times in a row since just now, right? You hung up every time." She said, "If you have something urgent, you can..."
As a result, Bai Tao was interrupted by Pei Shi before she could finish her sentence "You can answer the phone first". His voice was low but decisive: "I won't answer the phone while you are getting used to being a dog."
After he finished speaking, he added somewhat unnaturally: "It's not that urgent."
Bai Tao nodded, and then once again started to "cultivate feelings" with the dog as if facing a great enemy. Fortunately, with Pei Shi around, Bai Tao felt much more at ease, and the dog was also more sensible. After a while, Bai Tao's tense emotions really gradually relaxed, and she didn't seem so afraid or resistant to the dog anymore.
But after putting aside her worries about the dog, Bai Tao looked at Pei Shi who was standing in front of her, and a new worry arose -
On Pei Shi’s birthday night, what if he makes that request...
When Bai Tao thought of the implicit little essays in the previous memos, she felt sick all over. She immediately stopped being afraid of dogs. After all, Pei Shi was scarier than a dog.
Bai Tao decided to strike first. It was Pei Shi's birthday night, and it seemed a bit unreasonable to say nothing, so she took Pei Shi's hand and forced him to turn around and face her.
"Hubby!" Bai Tao stared into Pei Shi's eyes with a loving expression. She looked at him eagerly and passionately, then stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed Pei Shi on the lips, "Happy birthday!"
"I know what you are looking forward to tonight, but, I guess you have also seen that in order to send you a dog, I overcame the psychological fear that ordinary people cannot overcome, so I am very tired now. I have been... hollowed out and can no longer endure that kind of exciting emotion and experience..." Bai Tao blinked and looked at Pei Shi implicitly, "Husband, you understand, right?"
Pei Shi frowned.
Bai Tao patted his shoulder and said solemnly, "Besides, we are not young people in our early twenties anymore. We should take care of our bodies. Do you know why eunuchs in ancient times lived so long? It was because of abstinence. Modern people, perhaps because of staying up late and environmental pollution, are prone to kidney deficiency, which can also affect sperm quality. You see, we haven't given birth to children yet. For the sake of our future babies, we still have to improve sperm quality and let them win at the starting line!"
Bai Tao faced Pei Shi's gaze and continued, "And you see, you drank red wine tonight. Drinking affects sperm quality, so tonight... forget it! I think it's better for you to cultivate your character for a while! And last time, you used up three months' quota! You remember that, right?"
After she finished speaking, she no longer cared about Pei Shi's reaction. She quickly supported her forehead with her hand and pretended to yawn: "Oh, why am I so sleepy while talking? I can hardly open my eyes. I'm going to sleep first..."
After Bai Tao finished speaking, she quickly slipped away. Her agile figure and flexible movements didn't seem like someone who was sleepy at all.
Pei Shi stared at her back and almost laughed out of anger.
I didn't answer such an important call, put her first and accompanied her to overcome her fear of dogs, and this is what I got in return? Just this
Married life is indeed suffocating.
Pei Shi took out his cell phone expressionlessly and called Lawyer Gao back. As a man, only if you devote your time to work can you always get equal returns.
"Mr. Pei!" As soon as the call was connected, Attorney Gao's voice rang out. He apologized, "Sorry to bother you in the middle of the night..."
“Is there something wrong with the listing materials
"No, it's about Mrs. Pei..."
Pei Shi frowned and said almost subconsciously: "We won't get divorced."
"I know." Lawyer Gao smiled, "You two have such a good relationship, how could you get divorced! Last time, a self-media company slandered Mrs. Pei for cheating, and you asked me to collect evidence and file a lawsuit. Today, that company contacted me and said that they had inside information and wanted to talk to us. What do you think?"
"No talk." Pei Shi sneered, "Bai Tao will not cheat, just go through the legal process and don't tolerate rumors."
This was what Bai Tao heard when she tiptoed downstairs.
Pei Shi's voice is rather cold, and when he has no emotions, it sounds indifferent and harsh. However, now, when Bai Tao hears this tone, she only feels gentle and doting.
I just wanted to go downstairs to secretly get my phone because I forgot it downstairs, but I didn't expect to hear Pei Shi's true feelings!
This man really believed in himself! Even in the face of his own sister's report, he still chose love! He stood firmly by his side and protected him regardless of the weather!
When Bai Tao took the phone and lay back on her bed, her heart was still beating fast because of Pei Shi's last words. She actually wanted to bang her head against the wall for Pei Shi...
From now on, you must be nicer to Pei Shi!
There are really not many good men like this nowadays!
Thinking about how she was guarding against Pei Shi like a fire, theft or thief, Bai Tao felt a little guilty for the first time. Logically speaking, although she was a time traveler, this body was indeed her own five years later. She was already Pei Shi's wife, but she completely refused to fulfill her husband's duties and forced him to remain a virgin. This was indeed a bit too much.
Besides, Pei Shi is handsome, has a good figure, and looks strong and powerful with a perky butt... You won't suffer any loss or be fooled if you sleep with him. Looking at what I wrote in my memo, this user experience is pretty good... Otherwise, when...
The more Bai Tao thought about it, the redder her face became. Countless banned images flashed through her mind. Finally, she put a fever-reducing patch on each cheek, turned on the speaker, and played a passage of the Great Compassion Mantra. Only then did she gradually calm down and fall asleep.
*****
I slept very well that day. The next day was the weekend, so Bai Tao slept until she woke up naturally.
Pei Shi had to deal with some financial matters related to the company's listing, so he left a note for Bai Tao to inform her that he would not be at home in the morning.
Sufficient sleep makes people happy, the nourishment of love makes people joyful, and the trust in marriage makes people relaxed. Bai Tao almost hummed a song as she went to the kitchen, but just as the poached eggs were fried, the doorbell rang.
Bai Tao ran to the door and her mood suddenly became bad. Standing outside the door was an uninvited guest whom she didn't want to see at all - Pei Fei.
At this moment, Pei Fei was standing outside the door with a sinister look on his face. His unconcealed expression looked as if a line of words had been pasted on his face - I'm here to cause trouble.
But Bai Tao is not afraid of her at all now. Pei Shi loves her so much. Now that she and Pei Fei are in conflict, he will definitely support her! As for Pei Fei, it's time to give her a good beating!
What are you waiting for? Let Pei Fei in first, then! Close the door! Beat the dog!
Pei Fei was indeed here to provoke. As soon as she entered the room, she started to taunt him: "Oh, Bai Tao, your mental quality is really amazing. Even in this situation, you still refuse to give up and stay in my brother's villa. Do you have to make a scene until you become a hot topic on the Internet, let everyone find out that you are not a good woman, and then be kicked out of the house under the attention of the whole country?"
Bai Tao was quite calm: "Pei Fei, although you are Pei Shi's biological sister, there are some things you can't say carelessly, otherwise I will sue you even if you are my family. Besides, this is my home, if you keep talking nonsense like this, I will ask you to leave."
"You knew this a long time ago, right? Your ex-boyfriend Zhong Xiao just came back from abroad yesterday. I came here today just to see if I could catch you cheating!" Pei Fei rolled her eyes. "You haven't even divorced my brother yet, but you're already so impatient that the media has taken pictures of you cheating on me. Am I not coming here on behalf of the government to help you two, this couple?"
Bullshit! I didn’t even know my ex-boyfriend was coming back to China! I never contacted him! I am innocent! I am innocent!
But the more Pei Fei threw dirty water on her, the more she had to stay calm. Bai Tao glanced at Pei Fei and said in a pretentious manner, "Pei Shi and I have had a good relationship since we got married. He is willing to do anything for me. Now, I am his Achilles' heel. If you deliberately destroy our relationship, be careful that Pei Shi will break off all ties with you and never have any contact with you again."
"Bah! My brother doesn't like your type at all, and he's willing to do anything for you! My brother is the kind of person who puts his career first and puts his feelings aside, what else can he do for you?"
The calmer Bai Tao was, the more emotional Pei Fei became. "My brother hates women like you who are fickle the most! You attract all kinds of men all day long. I've known you for so many years, and you've been restless since school. Tell me yourself, how many scandals did you have in the past? You were with this guy one moment, and then with that guy the next. And you don't have any moral values. The guy has a girlfriend, but you can't help but flirt with him! After marrying my brother, I see you haven't restrained yourself, and you haven't let go of your ex-boyfriend!"
It would have been fine if Pei Fei hadn't said anything. But when she said that, Bai Tao also got angry. All the old and new hatreds came to her mind at the same time. "What do you mean I'm restless? I've never been in a relationship at school. I don't know who spread rumors about me having a relationship with this person or that person. I've never had an affair with anyone. You slandered me and said I seduced your boyfriend. You beat me without knowing the truth. But now you not only don't apologize, but you're also blaming me back?"
This incident was the fuse that led to the feud between Pei Fei and Bai Tao. Speaking of this, Pei Fei refused to admit his fault and said, "I was foresighted. A few years ago, I knew that you would harm my brother and cheat on him in the future, so I beat you up in advance! Am I wrong?! Have you forgotten how it felt when I slapped you in the face?"
"Is it because the green paint I put on your head wasn't bright enough?" Bai Tao also gritted her teeth and shot back, "It's all because Pei Shi came too quickly that time. Otherwise, not only would you have turned into the Hulk, you would have also been beaten up by me!"
Pei Fei glared at Bai Tao: "Who is hitting who? Can you beat me?"
Time can change many things, things and people have changed, but there is always a kind of feeling that will not fade despite the passage of time. For example, the "friendship" between Bai Tao and Pei Fei has not been changed by time. On the contrary, like aged wine, the concentration of this "friendship" has become more mellow, without any deterioration, and it is exactly the same as it was five years ago.
If you don't take revenge, you are not a gentleman.
Bai Tao also got angry: "I'm going to hit you. Pei Shi isn't here this time. I want to see who will clean up your mess!"
"You have no charm and no vision. You blindly found a boyfriend who would cheat on you. He really cheated on you, but you are hypocritical. You don't want to hit the scumbag, but only want to hit the mistress. Flies don't bite stinky eggs, but you hold a stinky egg and treat it as a treasure, thinking it is a preserved egg?"
Being cheated on was a shame in Pei Fei's life. Bai Tao hit her hard on this weak spot, and Pei Fei's face showed signs of shame and anger. But Bai Tao was telling the truth. She wanted to curse but couldn't refute it. As a result, she picked up a pillow from the sofa and threw it at Bai Tao in a rage.
The pillow was very light, and Bai Tao dodged it easily, but—
This is a question of attitude! This is a question of dignity! This is a question of bottom line!
Bai Tao's eyes turned red with anger: "How dare you actually hit me?!"
Attacking me in my own home, this is a fucking signal for battle!
Thinking of the slap she received without explanation in the past, Bai Tao stared at the pillow that fell to the ground, her eyes suddenly gleaming with ferocity: "Let me teach you a lesson this time. If you hit someone, you must be prepared to be hit back!"
…
*****
Pei Shi received a message from Pei Fei after finishing her work. She said she was going to the villa. The daughter of a senior accountant in the team assisting the listing was a fan of Pei Fei. Upon hearing the news, she immediately asked Pei Shi if she could take the opportunity to ask Pei Fei to sign a piano album for her daughter while she was about to pick up a set of financial information.
This senior accountant made a significant contribution to the IPO process. For such a small effort, Pei Shi drove him to the villa.
"My daughter has been practicing piano since she was young. She loves Pei Fei and has always regarded her as her idol. She goes to every performance of Pei Fei, just like chasing her like a star." The accountant was more and more relieved. "Other children of the same age are chasing those messy entertainment stars, but my daughter is much less troublesome. She never chases those. She only chases outstanding talents like Pei Fei."
"You are too kind."
"No, your sister is really outstanding. I've seen her interviews. She's elegant and noble, quiet and polite. She's not like some young people who are impetuous and swear...."
Pei Shi smiled, thanked him and opened the door.
The accountant continued to praise Pei Fei: "Every move you make is full of aristocratic temperament. After all, you are a pianist. You can tell at a glance that you have a lot of background. And your wife is also an intellectual. She is always calm and noble..."
But before he could finish the word "elegant", he was interrupted by a deafening voice in the room -
"Fuck you! Bai Tao you little bitch!"
Along with a loud curse, something in the house flew out of the door at a high speed. Pei Shi's good habit of fitness for many years has trained his reaction time. Almost subconsciously, he dodged the "flying object", but the accountant following behind him was not so lucky - he was hit on the head and face by a flying pillow.
And this pillow seems to be announcing the wonderful scene in the house—
Bai Tao grabbed Pei Fei's hair, and Pei Fei tore Bai Tao's clothes; Bai Tao freed her hands and hit Pei Fei twice, and Pei Fei grabbed Bai Tao's ears; Bai Tao pinched Pei Fei three times, and Pei Fei kicked Bai Tao twice...
This was the scene Pei Shi saw when he opened the door—the room was in a mess, the down pillows were scattered, feathers were flying everywhere, and Bai Tao and Pei Fei were fighting with each other.
Overall, Bai Tao was more agile than Pei Fei. Pei Shi watched as Bai Tao pulled Pei Fei's hair several times, and was already on the verge of winning over Pei Fei, while the two were still cursing at each other.
"Pei Fei, you stinking idiot, I will tear your mouth apart today for the sake of justice."
"Bai Tao, you are an unfaithful woman. My brother is only interested in your appearance now. When you are old and ugly, he will kick you out of the house..."
…
Pei Shi closed the door expressionlessly, turned around and said calmly to the accountant: "It's not convenient today. I'll ask my assistant to deliver the financial information next time."
"Pei Fei and your wife..."
Pei Shi said calmly: "They have a very good relationship and dare to show their true selves in front of each other. Now they haven't seen each other for many years, so the emotions were quite intense when they met again."
"… "
*****
Bai Tao had been looking forward to this battle with Pei Fei for a long time. Now that this moment has finally arrived, she feels like a god of war possessed. The more she fights, the braver she becomes. God helps those who work hard. Not long after, she finally wins the battle!
Pei Fei was pressed to the ground, but she refused to surrender: "Just wait, my brother will definitely come after you when he finds out. How dare you do this to me? I will kill you..."
At this moment, the sound of the door lock turning was heard at the door.
Almost at the same time, Bai Tao released the force that was suppressing Pei Fei. Pei Fei thought the time had come and immediately counterattacked.
Idiot, I've been waiting for this moment! Pei Shi must be back at this time!
The supporters are here!
Bai Tao was hit twice by Pei Fei, but she didn't fight back. Instead, she pinched herself and cried in pain. Then, before Pei Fei could react, Bai Tao covered her face and burst into tears. She looked towards the door, looked at Pei Shi with tears in her eyes and shed tears silently, acting like someone who was bullied by Pei Fei.
Taking advantage of the moment when Pei Fei was stunned, she pushed Pei Fei away, got up, and threw herself into Pei Shi's arms, crying.
"husband… "
Silence was better than words at this moment. Bai Tao just called Pei Shi aggrievedly and said nothing else. She just hugged Pei Shi's waist and cried silently.
Pei Fei pointed at Bai Tao and started to complain angrily: "Brother, Bai Tao..."
Bai Tao hugged Pei Shi tightly and interrupted Pei Fei: "Hubby, this is all my fault. It must be because I am not good enough that Fei Fei had such a big misunderstanding of me. Fei Fei hit me, it's not her fault. Don't blame Fei Fei, it's all my fault..."
Pei Fei really showed a dumbfounded expression: "This... Brother, this is not the case..."
"Indeed, it's not like that, husband, don't worry, even though Feifei hit me, I won't blame her, nor will I call the police. I... I will endure it all for you, I just hope Feifei can..." Bai Tao shed two lines of tears, "I don't want to embarrass you either. If Feifei doesn't accept me, we can just get a divorce!"
Pei Shi had a blank expression on his face, but when he heard the word "divorce", he finally frowned. He said in a cold voice, "No divorce."
This final word declared Bai Tao's victory. She buried herself in Pei Shi's arms and smiled triumphantly at Pei Fei from an angle where Pei Shi could not see her expression.
Are you stupid? I cried and I was just pretending.
Hahahahahahaha.
But Bai Tao still expressed her grief and sorrow with tears in her eyes: "But when Feifei saw me..."
"This is your home and mine, not hers." Pei Shi glanced at Pei Fei, "Bai Tao is the mistress of this house. Come out with me and I'll take you away."
Pei Fei's eyes turned red with anger: "Brother! You were deceived by her!"
"You, come out."
"I won't go out!"
Pei Shi pursed his lips, looked at Pei Fei, and whispered, "Come out, I'll pay for your small solo concert in Rong City."
Pei Fei obviously still couldn't swallow this anger, but Pei Shi was indeed a genius in negotiation. He hit the snake at its weakest part. When she heard about the funding for the solo concert, Pei Fei immediately calmed down. Although her chest was still heaving violently, and she was obviously still trying to dispel the anger in her heart, her expression was not as violent as before.
After staring at Bai Tao for ten minutes, she finally chose to follow Pei Shi out. But before leaving, she gritted her teeth and looked at Bai Tao sinisterly: "You wait."
Just wait, can her man still be on the same page with her? Pei Shi loves her so much, he will never let her go, he will only drive Pei Fei away.
Alas, Pei Fei is so naive. Can a man be the same as when he is single after getting married? Pei Shi's first identity is her man, and then Pei Fei's brother. Now that she has not given birth to a child, Pei Shi is so devoted to his family. When she has a child in the future, Pei Fei may not even be able to step into her own house.
Poor thing. Bai Tao felt that she was about to witness the end of a brother-sister relationship, and she couldn't help but feel a little pity for Pei Fei. Things change over time, who would have thought that Pei Shi, who always protected Pei Fei, would be so crazy about love now.
Thinking of Pei Fei's resentment and unwillingness when she left, Bai Tao almost laughed out loud. But when Bai Tao saw Pei Fei's hair on the ground, which she had just plucked, she was a little surprised.
Just now, it seemed that I had been pulling at one place subconsciously? Pei Fei didn't have much hair to begin with, and looking at the hair on the ground, the side of Pei Fei's head was probably in danger...
But acting still has to be performed fully. After Bai Tao tidied up her hair and the messy living room, she waited for a while. Pei Shi finally pushed open the door and came back. It seemed that he had sent Pei Fei away.
Bai Tao showed a tearful expression again: "Husband."
"kindness."
"I just reflected on what happened just now. I was also wrong."
Pei Shi raised his eyes slightly, looking a little surprised: "What did you do wrong?"
Bai Tao pretended to wipe away tears and said, "Maybe it's because I'm too pretty and have too much personality charm. She always thinks I'm restless and always misunderstands me. After all, it's still my fault..."
"… "
"But I'm thinking, I can't become beautiful by myself, I have to be beautiful first and then others, so I plan to call Feifei to apologize." Bai Tao said delicately, "Maybe it's because of the pressure of piano practice. I see Feifei's hair is not too much. Just now, she was at home for such a short time, and her hair was like a dandelion. When the wind blows, a bunch of hair falls off. I recommend two hair growth essences to her. When her hair grows out and she is no longer bald, she will be in a good mood and naturally have a better relationship with me..."
At this moment, Bai Tao in front of Pei Shi was well-behaved and quiet, with tender eyes. If Pei Shi had not seen with his own eyes how she was full of energy and tried desperately to grab Pei Fei and pull her hair with an evil look on her face, he would have really believed that she was a standard little wife who did not cause trouble.
Bai Tao continued with an innocent look, "Hubby, in addition to hair growth essence, I also saw fake bangs and wigs last time, which are also very useful. Feifei's hair seemed to be bald on one side just now, so just put on a wig and it will be fine. I won't feel unconfident when I go out in the future. I will be so jealous of others with thick hair that I want to hit them."
"… "
Bai Tao blinked her eyes and said, "Don't worry, husband. I am confident that Feifei and I can become good friends in the future!"
How can I be assured? Pei Shi felt that if Bai Tao beat Pei Fei with the same intensity just now, they would never get along in this life...
Next time, I should sign Pei Fei up for a free-fighting class. She only practices the piano and doesn’t exercise her body. I don’t know if she will be beaten to a pulp by the lively Bai Tao…
