How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 529: Sigh, Turns Out She Was the Thoughtless One

Chapter 529: Chapter 529: Sigh, Turns Out She Was the Thoughtless One

At first, she wanted to buy things for Liu Xu and Shu’er.

Liu Xu said with a smile, "Mother-in-law, rest assured, this money is all earned by Shu’er, you don’t need to feel embarrassed."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wanqing enjoyed herself with ease, only occasionally making payments.

Shen Wanqing had been to Su County, so she knew her daughter was earning money.

She said, "It’s best to spend less, let’s go have dinner at home."

Liu Xu laughed softly. She also treated Shen Wanqing like a sister, wishing for Shen Wanqing to spend more time with her.

Once they arrived home, Zhao Yu brought all the large and small packages to Liu Xu’s room.

Then he said, "The cook has already prepared the food, hurry and eat."

Shen Wanqing’s days at the Prince Zhan Mansion grew better and better, and Liu Xu became increasingly happy with Shen Wanqing’s company.

The two of them had endless things to talk about each day.

Since coming to the Capital, Tang Peiyi and Tang Peixiao did not stay at the Prince Zhan Mansion anymore; instead, they bought a house nearby and moved out completely.

After all, living together in the past always resulted in occasional conflicts.

Moreover, although the Prince Zhan Mansion appeared prosperous now, there was constantly a threat hanging over it, ready to fall at any moment.

The members of the Tang Family who could move out chose to leave, to avoid getting involved in this mess.

However, half a month after Shen Wanqing started staying at the Prince Zhan Mansion, Pei Yu paid them a visit.

Pei Shu’er was somewhat shocked. Her father had always been indifferent towards her and Shen Wanqing.

How did he suddenly have time to visit her mother?

But soon, Pei Shu’er was disappointed.

Pei Yu came to visit Tang Zan.

That explained it.

Lately, so many people visited the Prince Zhan Mansion that they could practically wear out the doorstep.

Tang Zan and Pei Yu were connected by a layer of in-law relationship.

Not visiting for so long had led to secret discussions about whether the relationship between the two families had truly deteriorated.

Tang Zan and Pei Shu’er wanted to visit but Pei Yu had put his foot down by removing Pei Shu’er from the family genealogy, and publicly announcing the termination of their relationship.

Pei Shu’er was not someone who would persistently seek warmth where there was none.

Thus, this time Pei Yu probably couldn’t withstand the pressure of public opinion, hence he came.

Tang Zan received Pei Yu with full decorum.

He neither tarnished the War King’s prestige nor embarrassed his father-in-law.

Midway through, Pei Shu’er also emerged.

After all, they were now in the Capital, where any tiny trouble could spread everywhere. If she didn’t show up, she might be accused of being unfilial.

Even though she had already severed ties with the Pei Family.

Pei Yu looked at Pei Shu’er, and his gaze remained indifferent.

Towards others, he was actually quite gentle, but with Shen Wanqing and her, he seemed unable to be close.

Pei Yu never once held the original body since childhood.

If it weren’t for Shen Wanqing’s good character, Pei Shu’er would suspect the original body wasn’t Pei Yu’s child but rather the neighbor’s, Old Wang’s.

And what’s more, Pei Yu must know she was illegitimate, hence the estrangement.

Yet upon reconsideration, how could that be possible?

Pei Yu had a good family background and had always been proud by nature; how could he unwittingly become a father and raise someone else’s child?

But indeed, the original body’s personality was rather unlikable, which might have been part of the reason.

Pei Yu cast a cold glance at her and said, "Pei Shu’er, are you still blaming me for making you sever ties with the family back then?"

This sounded as if reconnecting was on the agenda.

Pei Shu’er quickly shook her head, "Father, Shu’er wouldn’t dare. Shu’er understands you had your difficulties. If I hadn’t severed ties with the family, the family would have been exiled."

After all, nowadays family concepts were held in high regard.

Usually, a large family lived in one residence. Even if there were some minor frictions and struggles, when big matters happened, they united against external forces.

Pei Yu nodded, showing rare appreciation in his eyes.

"I know Shu’er is sensible. Now that the criminal record has been cleared, there’s no need to hold back. If you wish to return home and stay a while, you are most welcome."

Pei Shu’er nodded, acknowledging Pei Yu’s actions as understandable.

Shen Wanqing also came out, smiling as she held Pei Shu’er.

"Come on, Shu’er, your father is here, let’s go back with him."

Pei Shu’er nodded.

When she lifted the curtain of the carriage, she saw Xing Ruo inside, dressed brightly and alluringly.

Pei Shu’er looked speechless and told the guard, "Go to the stable and bring another carriage."

Shen Wanqing said nothing, nor did her expression show any indignation or resentment.

Pei Shu’er didn’t intend to return to the Pei Mansion permanently.

But since Pei Yu came, following him back and letting him talk to the Pei Family was the most straightforward thing to do.

When the carriage was brought over, Yinxing also packed the long-prepared gifts for their visit.

Tang Zan was idle at the moment, so he went back with Pei Shu’er right away.

Shen Wanqing saw her son-in-law was going back too, and his eyes seemed almost glued to Pei Shu’er, covering her mouth while smiling.

"See, now it’s the mother who doesn’t understand."

Then she seated herself in the front carriage.

Pei Shu’er felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, feeling sad for Shen Wanqing.

Watching her husband have affectionate exchanges with another woman, no matter how indifferent she appeared outwardly, she must feel pain inside, right?

After Shen Wanqing got into the carriage, Pei Yu hesitated a moment before also getting on.

Shen Wanqing leaned against the carriage wall, being very sensible and considerate.

"Do as you please."

After saying this, she took out the storybook Pei Shu’er had prepared for her.

This storybook was about cultivation and written in plain language, easy to understand, without any complex wording.

She enjoyed it a lot and often chuckled while reading.

Meanwhile, her husband was getting sweet and affectionate with Xing Ruo, causing quite a scene.

By the looks of it, if she, Shen Wanqing, weren’t there, these two would probably do whatever on the carriage.

Ah, perhaps she really was the one who didn’t understand.

However, this storybook was indeed delightful, hahaha.

In the rear carriage, Tang Zan’s eyes were ablaze.

"Pei Shu’er, do you know how many times you’ve glanced at me lately, spoken to me?"

Pei Shu’er coughed, knowing she was at fault.

"I haven’t seen my mother for so long, which is why I accidentally neglected my husband~"

More importantly, Shen Wanqing was an incredibly interesting person.

Even as a young girl, there was no generation gap between them.

Tang Zan would always stay silent.

Adding up their time in the Capital and at the mansion, they had actually gone more than two months without being intimate.

Tang Zan was at a passionate age.

But now was really not the appropriate time on the carriage.

Yet Tang Zan did not care about this, immediately kissing Pei Shu’er, seizing this rare opportunity.

Pei Shu’er was soon kissed breathless.

Tang Zan’s palm was scorching.

Pei Shu’er pushed him away, "Please, how are we going to explain this when we arrive at the Pei Mansion."
