Chapter 707: Chapter 707 Every Day We Fight for Divorce
When he returned home, the servant had just finished making dinner.
Seeing him, the housemaid Chen’s mother asked with concern, “Young master, have you had dinner? I’ve just finished cooking. Would you like some?”
Pei Yuanze seldom ate at home, so Chen’s mother didn’t know whether he had eaten or not.
“Mm-hmm,” Pei Yuanze nodded and sat down across from Xia Yu.
Xia Yu glanced up at him and said nothing, then continued to bow her head and eat.
Pei Yuanze noticed that her bowls and chopsticks were separate and all of different colors. And she used a separate pair of chopsticks to serve herself food…
Seeing his confusion, Chen’s mother explained with a smile, “Young master, the missus is in poor health, which makes her easily susceptible to infections, so she uses separate utensils during her pregnancy.”
Was that a reason? The utensils at home were strictly disinfected, so there was no need for such excessive caution.
Pei Yuanze simply felt that Xia Yu was being a bit too overcautious.
Besides, it was only he and she who ate at home. Whom was she afraid would infect her? Him?
Suddenly, Pei Yuanze’s expression darkened. He too put down his chopsticks, preferring not to risk infecting her.
“That woman from last time is no good. You’d better be more cautious and stay away from her,” he said in a low tone.
Confused, Xia Yu looked up, “Who are you talking about? Luoyun?”
“Yes, her. Though I shouldn’t meddle in your affairs, she definitely has ulterior motives for approaching you. You would be wise to see her for who she really is,” Pei Yuanze insisted, looking into her eyes as he spoke.
Xia Yu fell silent for a moment, then couldn’t help but scoff, “I know very well what kind of person my friend is. You’re thinking too much.”
“Didn’t you see the news that came out on the internet these past few days?”
“I saw it. But I trust her.”
Pei Yuanze’s voice grew colder, “Even when she’s , you still trust her? Xia Yu, she must have a purpose in approaching you.”
“Then do you believe that Shao Yingying is very scheming, intent on destroying our relationship?” Xia Yu countered instead of replying.
Why did she bring up Shao Yingying again?
Pei Yuanze frowned and said, “I know you have grievances against her. But she never intended to destroy our relationship. Yes, I had feelings for her in the past, and I’m filled with guilt towards her. But our divorce has nothing to do with her–it was because I didn’t want to continue making mistakes, and it has nothing to do with her, so you have no reason to hold a grudge against her.”
“My friend treats me well, at least she’s sincere. No matter what kind of person she is, my decision to trust her is enough. Even if I am deceived, it has nothing to do with you, so you don’t need to hold a grudge against her either,” Xia Yu said indifferently, then bowed her head and continued eating.
Pei Yuanze’s gaze turned stony, and then he stood up and left, heading straight for the army base.
As soon as he left, Chen’s mother couldn’t help asking Xia Yu in shock, “Miss, are you going to divorce the young master? This mustn’t happen. You’re still pregnant now, how could he do this?”
“Chen’s mother, we talk about divorce every day, you know that…” Xia Yu said with a mild smile, comforting her.
Chen’s mother sighed with relief, “As long as it’s just talk. Indeed, you’re pregnant with a child now, how could you possibly get a divorce? I was overthinking it…”
Xia Yu’s eyes flickered, but she said no more.
After leaving the Western restaurant, Mo Jun happened to pass by the Su Family’s Su’an Hall by coincidence.
She had been very busy these days and hadn’t managed to deliver the potion to Little Ping’an. She wondered how his health was.
Mo Jun decided to drop by and deliver it on her way.
Meanwhile, Su Zhan was sprawled over the counter, his entire demeanor somewhat listless, and his eyes kept wandering towards the door from time to time.
