Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 111

Liusu accompanied Ye Xi in, and the person who led the way was actually the master she had met before.

The other party must have been told what to do, so he politely led her to a separate room.

The room was very simple, with just a table and a few chairs, and there wasn't even a set of teapots and cups on the table.

After the lawyer brought the person here, he went to take him away. Not long after, the lawyer brought Pei Zhu here.

Liusu was guarding outside the door while Ye Xi was sitting inside. When she saw Pei Zhu come in, she couldn't help but hug him.

Liusu looked at the two people hugging each other and silently closed the door.

"Let me take a good look." Ye Xi pushed Pei Zhu away slightly and looked up and down a few times in a crying voice.

He was relieved to find that except for Pei Zhu's clothes being a little dirty and the old wounds on his face having healed, there seemed to be no new scars.

While she was observing him, Pei Zhu was also observing her. He found that Ye Xi's makeup was thicker than usual, and he knew that it was probably to cover up her haggard face.

"I'm sorry for causing my wife to suffer these days. Look how thin you have become." Pei Zhu reached out to hold Ye Xi's arm and found that it was indeed much thinner.

He felt distressed, but he asked doubtfully: "But why is my wife here? Why did they let you see me here? Did you spend money or use connections?"

He thought for a moment and asked again: "Did he go to ask Young Master Yang for help?"

Ye Xi was so angry when she heard that Pei Zhu actually mistakenly thought that it was that black-hearted guy who came to help.

"No, how could that hypocrite help us?" Ye Xi said fiercely.

Pei Zhu was silent for a moment after hearing this: "It's not his fault. Business is about profit. I'm causing him trouble. It's human nature for him to avoid suspicion."

It turned out that Pei Zhu just thought that the other party was just watching him die without helping, which made Ye Xi even more angry.

She took a deep breath, pulled Pei Zhu to sit down, and then dragged a chair over for him to sit down as well.

The two of them happened to be sitting face to face. Ye Xi stretched out her hands, held Pei Zhu's hands respectively, and said:

"My dear husband, what I am about to say may be hard for you to accept. However, you must hold yourself back and listen to me until I finish speaking."

It was the first time Pei Zhu saw Ye Xi so serious and solemn. He had a bad feeling, maybe he was going to be finished soon?

"This time I was imprisoned, as my husband expected, because I was framed by someone. Although the crime was minor, it could have been settled with money.

But because she couldn't find the innkeeper, and because of the instigation of the person behind the scenes, Xi Niang could only tell her husband that there would never be a day when the truth would be revealed."

Hearing this, Pei Zhu was very calm. After all, it was expected and he was not stupid.

This kind of small case shouldn't be so complicated. To have turned out like this, there must be someone plotting against him behind the scenes, but he has never figured out who it is and why.

"When Xi Niang was in a state of panic, the person behind the scenes came to her house and made conditions to her.

As long as Xi Niang agrees, your husband can leave here safely. Otherwise, the false accusation will not only make your husband unable to turn over, but also put his life in danger. "

"...What conditions?" Pei Zhu didn't expect that his wife would be involved. He had a bad feeling, but he still asked calmly.

"The other party wants Xi Niang to divorce her husband."

"What?!" Pei Zhu stood up suddenly, his excitement was beyond words and his breathing became rapid.

"My dear husband, please sit down first and listen to me explain the matter in detail."

Ye Xi took his hand and asked him to sit down. She looked into his eyes and told him what had happened in detail.
