Shaking her head, Jing Chu answered, “No idea, let’s go and take a look.”
As soon as they stepped forward, a woman alighted from the car. Jing Chu took a closer look, only to discover that it was Tian Tian, after which she immediately pulled Fat Lass away.
Fat Lass asked softly, “Sis Jing Chu, isn’t that Pei Yi’s fiancée? What is she doing here?”
Jing Chu shook her head and said, “No idea. Let’s go to the supermarket to get some stuff.”
Fat Lass expressed assent, and the two headed to the supermarket together.
They stayed at the supermarket for a long time. However, they were wandering around aimlessly and did not buy anything at all.
Little did Jing Chu know, Tian Tian had already left long ago because she didn’t know the password to Pei Yi’s mansion.
Upon returning home, she instructed Fat Lass, “No matter who shows up at the door, just pretend that you didn’t hear the doorbell. Don’t open the door.”
Even the dimwitted Fat Lass could tell that something was amiss. After some thought, she asked, “Sis Jing Chu, could Mr. Pei be Pei Yi?”
Jing Chu answered, “Yeah.”
Fat Lass placed her hand over her mouth in shock and said, “Sis Jing Chu, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I even said those things…”
Jing Chu held her hand and said, “Don’t worry. I didn’t tell Master Pei. I won’t betray you.”
Fat Lass felt a huge sense of relief. “Thank you, Sis Jing Chu. I won’t spout any nonsense anymore from now on.”
“You can say whatever you want to me, but don’t mention them to him. Fat Lass, I’m hungry. Go and cook something,” said Jing Chu.
“Alright.”
After Fat Lass headed to the kitchen, she sent Pei Yi a text message to inform him that Tian Tian had dropped by and that she did not meet her.
Pei Yi replied, “I’ll see to it.”
Jing Chu could put her mind at ease.
She began cooping herself up at home again and instructed Fat Lass to go to the supermarket only in the morning. The two of them had each other’s company.
Jing Chu and Fat Lass got along very well and lived harmoniously with each other.
Pei Yi would visit her periodically and only stay for a short while during each visit. However, he brought her to the hospital twice within two months.
Whenever she asked about what they were there for, he would simply tell her that they were there for a regular physical examination.
Due to the anesthesia that she had been administered, she had no idea what went on during the checkup.
She did not think much of it either.
It was the day of Pei Yi and Tian Tian’s wedding.
Their wedding was reported on the news, and Jing Chu even sneaked to the church to watch their wedding ceremony.
During the ceremony, she sat in the last row of seats in the church and stared at the newlyweds. Pei Yi was dressed in an immaculate suit while Tian Tian was dressed in a white wedding gown.
No one discovered that she was an uninvited guest at first. However, Pei Yi caught sight of her when he exchanged wedding bands with Tian Tian and was about to kiss her.
At that moment, Jing Chu hung her head as low as she could.
Pei Yi grabbed Tian Tian’s hand and kissed it, after which the ceremony ended.
Jing Chu was the first to leave the church.
She sprinted out of the church and ran toward Fat Lass. They then returned to the estate together.
Jing Chu was overwhelmed with a different feeling the moment she returned home.
Given Pei Yi’s attitude, he would definitely make her stay with him for decades. By then, she would be old and way past her childbearing years. It would be difficult for her to get married too. Thus, she would definitely end up dying alone.
Jing Chu could not help but find her future to be bleak and pathetic.
She wanted to find a man who would be devoted to her and love her wholeheartedly. She wanted to live a happy life with her family too.
However, her wishes would probably never come true.
She initially thought that Pei Yi would definitely spend his nuptial night with his bride.
Yet, he arrived at the mansion just as Jing Chu was about to shower at night. He stood by the door of the washroom and watched her shower.
“Why are you here?”
“Aren’t you looking forward to seeing me?” he asked, not blaming her for turning up at his wedding either.
Jing Chu turned off the faucet and wrapped a towel around herself. She then began drying her hair with a hairdryer without answering him.
He stood rooted to the ground and watched her dry her hair slowly.
After brushing her teeth, she walked toward him and said solemnly, “Didn’t I mention this before? My life revolves around you. Of course I’d be looking forward to seeing you.”
Pei Yi grabbed her and carried her onto the bed.
“Is it really okay for you to spend the night away from her even though you just got married today?”
“Stay out of this.”
She gazed at him, and a brazen idea popped up in her head.
She wanted to win his heart.
She knew that it was a bold idea and a near-impossible task.
However, she still wanted to do this.
Hence, she draped her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his before sucking them gently.
Pei Yi looked at her, surprised by her sudden proactive behavior.
He moved closer toward her and kissed her deeply.
She was the only woman whom he could last that long in bed with. In fact, she had made him break his personal record.
Jing Chu seemed to have lost her rationality and decided to be the dominant one in bed tonight. She turned over and straddled him while kissing him vigorously.
She tried every single position that she knew.
Pei Yi found it extremely overwhelming too.
How rare for her.
Two hours later, she finally stopped and lay on the bed motionlessly, completely exhausted. Panting heavily, she turned to look at him. Pei Yi remarked, “Lass, you were so sensual tonight.”
She turned to lie on her side and said to him softly, “I know I mean nothing to you, but I still hope that you’ll come to me when you need to satisfy your sexual needs, Master Pei. Don’t get intimate with other women. You can only…”
Pointing at his member, she continued, “Enter me.”
He said with raised brows, “I’m a huge clean freak.”
Upon hearing his words, she blurted excitedly, “Wonderful!”
“Wonderful!?! Do you actually hope that you’ll be the only person I get intimate with for the rest of my life?”
“Of course, but I don’t know if I have the ability to become the only person you’d get intimate with.”
“You have to work harder, then. It’s hard for me to stay committed to someone,” Pei Yi said while pulling the duvet over the both of them.
Her heart sank. However, she smiled and said, “That’s because you haven’t met a woman who can make you devoted yet.”
Pei Yi remained silent and hugged her to sleep.
He had dinner before leaving.
Fat Lass asked carefully, “Sis Jing Chu, did Mr. Pei sleep here last night?”
“Yes.”
“I can tell that you mean more to him than his wife does.”
Do I actually matter to him?
Doesn’t he only use me to satisfy his sexual needs?
She smiled and remained silent, not making any comment.
Life had been mundane for her. She felt as if she was a bird in a cage whose only purpose was to wait for her master to visit her.
Jing Chu hated waiting aimlessly each day. Hence, she decided to find something to occupy herself with.
However, she did not have a personal identification card and hence could not go out to work.
After much thought, she decided to do some volunteer work like those that she had seen on television.
