Chapter 522: No One Knows You Better Than Me…
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
It was a cloudy day. The weather forecast said that there would be no rain, but it was cloudy.
Pei Huai picked up Su Ji and met Pei Xi and Bill at the gate. The two groups of people just happened to get out of the car together.
Bill walked with Pei Xi in his arms. The two of them were like conjoined twins from the moment they got out of the car. Ever since Su Ji helped them last time, the two of them seemed to be newly in love again.
Anna stood in front of the French window where she could see them.
The moment Su Ji got out of the car, it was not an exaggeration to say that the sky seemed to clear up in an instant. The bright sunlight seeped through the clouds and penetrated her hair.
The lighting was too coincidental, and she came at the right time. Su Ji was wearing all-white sportswear today, and her tall figure walked into the house.
“Su Ji!” Pei Xi broke free from Bill and hugged Su Ji from behind. She put her arm on her shoulder. “Did you watch yesterday’s match?”
Su Ji turned to look at her. “I saw it. I’m so angry.”
“That’s right.” Pei Xi echoed, “the referee is blind.”
“Oh right, I heard that the tickets for the grand finals are on sale.” Pei Xi said, “the price has already been increased by more than ten times by the scalpers. When they increase the price again, I’ll buy a few tickets for us to watch together.”
Anna placed her hand on the glass. The moment she saw Su Ji, her scalp went numb.
They were very familiar with each other and had a good relationship. They were both beautiful, sunny, and eloquent.
Their lovers were lagging behind and chatting with each other, but their gazes fell on them at the same time.
If such people were to walk together in public, they would definitely attract attention. Their photos might even be posted online by their fans and appear amidst the cheers.
Su Ji pushed her hair back, as if she had seen someone behind the French window.
Anna subconsciously hid behind the curtain nervously.
At this moment, they were more than ten meters apart.
Du Meilan opened the door for them.
“Grandpa Pei, Chief Wang, Professor Wang…” Su Ji called out to them one by one.
Anna saw very clearly that the moment Su Ji entered, she attracted everyone’s attention.
Even Pei Song, who had not spoken to Anna, walked towards her and said something to her with a smile. He looked very natural.
Before this, Anna had always thought that Pei Song was a difficult person to get along with. However, he was different towards Su Ji.
Pei Yuanyang flew into her arms. The butler gave her the slice of cake with the most fruits. Even Ms. Cao, who arrived later, was very familiar with Su Ji. If Pei Xingxing had not gone to kindergarten today, he would probably have the same reaction.
She Imew everyone and seemed to have completely integrated with the Pei family.
Anna’s heart sank.
She really envied her.
Su Ji’s gaze passed through the crowd and landed at her. The Pei family introduced the two of them.
“Hello, Ms. Su…” Ever since Anna came here, had completely relapsed. She basically stuttered every sentence.
“Hello, Anna.” Su Ji stared at her for a long time.
She was prettier than Consort Lan from the Western Regions. Su Ji quickly came to a conclusion.
Anna was very nervous under her stare, thinking that she hated her. Her face was very red, as if she was about to be cooked.
Half a minute later, Pei Huai covered Su Jits eyes and took her away.
Anna heard their conversation.
“What? Didn’t you ask me to treat her? Let me see her complexion.”
“Cut the crap.”
“Don’t think that you know me very well.”
“No one understands you better than I do…”
Anna thought that if her big brother had a wife in the future, she would definitely be submissive, the type who was afraid that she would do something wrong and anger him.
However, Ms. Su Ji was completely different from what she had imagined.
She was fierce, yet Pei Huai didn’t seem to be angry.
In fact, Pei Huai was a little angry at first, but before it accumualted, he saw the faint black lines on Su Ji’s shoulder, which became obvious because of her tilting her shoulder.
The items were washed.
They should be dry by now.
How could he still be angry?
Pei Huai put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly. He looked away and adjusted her top.
Cao Zhuzhu searched the house with her gaze. When she found him, Pei Song was leaning against the railing of the balcony smoking. The cigarette was between his lips. His gaze…landed directly on her with a smile.
Cao Zhuzhu: ‘
She was so embarrassed.
He had seen her looking for him everywhere and was even admiring her in a good mood.
“Cao!” Pei Qingshen called out to her from a few meters away, “if you don’t think it’s noisy, fix it in the living room. I can’t leave. If you fix it here, I can tell you what’s wrong with it.”‘
Cao Zhuzhu was fine with that. She pointed to an empty space beside her. “I’ll fix it there.”
Pei Qingshen asked the butler to bring the lute over.
Pei Song put out his cigarette and walked towards her.
Cao Zhuzhu seemed to be checking the lute, but she kept noticing his approaching footsteps from the corner of her eye, and her heart began to race.
Pei Song stopped the servant who was serving tea. “Prepare some snacks for Ms. Cao.”
“Yes.”
“Something sweet. She likes sweet things.”
There were sounds of people talking around them, but it was enough to embarrass Cao Zhuzhu.
When she came out of Pei Song’s room that day, many people in the Pei family had already seen her. She thought that no one would mention it and it would pass. Pei Song…actually brazenly told the servants at home that she liked sweets!
He was telling everyone that they were close!
The servants were unfazed. “Yes, Second Master. I’ll go and prepare it now.”
Cao Zhuzhu had been holding her breath until Du Meilan opened her mouth.
Everyone in the room turned their attention back to Su Ji, except for Pei Song.
Du Meilan asked Su Ji to take Anna’s pulse.
The group of people sat on the sofa.
Su Ji sat down first. Anna was practically dragged by Du Meilan, who then got her to sit down and sat opposite Su Ji.
Su Ji glared at Pei Huai, as if to say, “I’m going to take her pulse now. If you don’t like it, do it yourself?” Pei Huai was so angry that he laughed.
“Do it,” he urged.
Only then did Su Ji look at Anna.
Anna held her left wrist and asked softly, “is my right hand okay?”
Usually, one would take the pulse from both hands. This way, it would be more accurate.
However, Su Ji did not have to go through so much trouble.
“Sure,” Su Ji said, her gaze inadvertently sweeping over her left wrist that was hanging down her sleeve.
Anna pursed her lips slightly and rolled up her right sleeve, revealing her extremely thin arm..
