After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 675 - 679: Xu Pei’s Bitter Love Drama【1】

"Then hurry up and come on up!" Huangfu Ruo waved at her, leading Xu Pei upstairs.

Luo Xiaoqian breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the dressing room to get her bag, took out her phone, and dialed Leng Zimo’s number.

...

...

Upstairs.

While admiring the house’s decor, Xu Pei casually asked, "When did Xiao Qian get pregnant?!"

"No way, that girl has kept it a very tight secret, huh? You didn’t even know?" Huangfu Ruo, leading her to the third floor, said, "Her pregnancy is about the same as mine, just over a month or two. Just yesterday, I was talking about setting up a baby’s betrothal with her!"

"Really!" Xu Pei responded, but her eyes darkened with every passing moment, and she lost interest in touring the ancient castle.

"This is our bedroom, what do you think, beautiful, isn’t it?" Huangfu Ruo asked with a smile.

"Ah, very beautiful, very luxurious," Xu Pei replied perfunctorily.

Huangfu Ruo led her to the nursery room, "This is nothing; if you want to talk about luxury, the ancient castle Brother Zimo bought for Xiao Qian is the real luxury. Just the painting in the living room is worth twenty thousand Euros!"

"An ancient castle?!" Xu Pei was shocked again.

"Yeah!" Huangfu Ruo walked to the window and pointed not far away, "See, beyond that patch of woods, on that hillside, that castle? That’s where Brother Zimo bought the castle for Xiao Qian. Brother Zimo truly dotes on Xiao Qian, all the deeds are in her name, and everything was done quietly until Xiao Qian found out last night. They spent the night there yesterday; I guess they must have loved each other all night and only came over around noon today..."

Huangfu Ruo’s tone was tinged with a touch of envy, but when she turned around, she saw Xu Pei staring out of the window, lost in thought.

"Sister Xu Pei, what’s wrong with you?"

"Oh, nothing... Nothing’s wrong." Xu Pei snapped back to reality, "Is everything ready for tomorrow?"

"Yeah, pretty much, just had a little trouble with the priest, but Brother Zimo went to solve it," Huangfu Ruo said.

"Zirui and Huangfu are here too, aren’t they? Why haven’t I seen them?" Xu Pei asked again.

"They went to the city for some sort of exchange meeting and will come back later!" Huangfu Ruo, pulling her out of the nursery, said, "Over there’s the terrace, let’s go sit there."

Both of them walked onto the terrace, and instantly, Huangfu Ruo saw Luo Xiaoqian standing on the lawn making a phone call.

"These two really show affection in a way that makes one die of envy, on the phone for so long."

Xu Pei sat down on a chair to the side, glanced at Luo Xiaoqian making her call, then lifted her face to gaze at Luo Xiaoqian’s distant castle.

Inside, a surge of jealousy instantly welled up.

"Xiao Qian, come up here!" Approaching the terrace’s railing, Huangfu Ruo called out loudly.

"Okay, I’ll be right there!" Luo Xiaoqian initially wanted to avoid Xu Pei, but now that she was being called, she had no choice but to agree, waving to Huangfu Ruo as she continued talking on the phone, "Ruoruo seems to be in a bad mood, you and Qin Lan have a good talk with her, see if they’ve had any misunderstanding; she was crying by the River just now."

"Okay, leave this matter to me," Leng Zimo immediately agreed on the other end of the phone, "Was that her calling you just now?"

"Yes, I’m upstairs; she and Xu Pei are on the terrace!"

"Xu Pei is there too?" Leng Zimo said with a lowered tone, "If you don’t want to stay there, find an excuse to come back to the castle."
