After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back

Chapter 148 What are you hiding?

Hearing these words, Xie Shuyao seemed to have touched a nerve. She suddenly became agitated and pulled Pei Jingyi's arm and said, "Impossible, he can't be a spy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Jingyi pushed her away. His handsome face was filled with gloom and his eyes were more cruel than Xie Shuyao had ever seen.

He put his hand on Xie Shuyao's shoulder and said in a bad tone: "Who are you? Why do you say it's not true? Do you think you know it well?"

Xie Shuyao's mind was somewhat numb, but her heart seemed to be awake. For some reason, her eyes suddenly became sore, and she choked up when she spoke: "Why are you so mean to me?"

Seeing that she was about to cry, Pei Jingyi took a deep breath, loosened his hand and stepped back half a step, chuckled at himself, and said word by word:

"My wife, the first thing you do when you see me is not to care about me, but to care about other men. Should I be happy?"

Pei Jingyi's almost harsh tone and contemptuous look shocked Xie Shuyao's heart. The soreness in her eyes finally burst out and she shed two tears.

She looked at Pei Jingyi in disbelief and murmured, "What do you mean?"

Seeing her crying, Pei Jingyi did not hug her as usual, but questioned her condescendingly, saying in a sinister tone:

"Xie Shuyao, do you have a heart? Who are you shedding these tears for?"

At this point, he paused and finally asked, "You went to see Shangguan Hao, right?"

After hearing this, Xie Shuyao's heart was in turmoil, but her face remained cold and expressionless, as if her body and consciousness were in two different worlds.

She asked back, "You don't think there's anything going on between me and him, do you?"

Seeing her calm expression and her still lying to him, Pei Jingyi finally couldn't hold back his anger and said angrily:

"Isn't it? If not, why did you go out to see him again and again, eager to make excuses for him?"

From the very beginning, the two were together with a purpose, and their relationship was not pure, so Pei Jingyi could ignore these issues, thinking that not dwelling on them would not affect the relationship between them.

But now, Pei Jingyi felt that he was wrong, he didn't understand Xie Shuyao at all.

He took a deep breath and moved closer to Xie Shuyao until her heels were against the wall with nowhere to retreat.

Pei Jingyi placed his hands on both sides of her body, his eyes fixed on her face with a deep and cold gaze, and spoke word by word:

"Before in the capital, you bought a large amount of spirit stones. What did you use them for?"

"As far as I know, you have never been out of the capital. How did you know Shangguan Hao? Or did you reach some kind of deal with him after coming to Canglan Country?"

"What is your relationship, and where did that plan come from?"

"What are you hiding? I'll give you a chance. Now, tell me."

With every word Pei Jingyi spoke, Xie Shuyao's face became darker. At the end, she lowered her head completely, as if she didn't dare to look Pei Jingyi in the eye at all.

She opened her lips, wanting to say something, but felt like she had no idea where to start.

The breath was exhaled into the air, and there was still silence.

After waiting for a while, Pei Jingyi's patience ran out.

Xie Shuyao didn't say anything on the surface, but he seemed to understand everything.

He punched the wall behind Xie Shuyao, his dark eyes showing no emotion:

"Did I forget to tell you that my patience has its limits? From today on, you are not allowed to go anywhere in the yard."

After saying that, Pei Jingyi seemed unwilling to look at Xie Shuyao any longer, so he walked out of the door and locked it.
