Xu Pei did indeed harbor some intent to irritate Huo Xiyao.
After all, aside from love and hatred, the two men had other grudges. Even though Xu Pei no longer planned on seeking revenge, he genuinely didn't have the capability to do so.
To annoy Huo Xiyao along the way, he was still very willing.
Unfortunately, just as Xia Chu had said, Huo Xiyao didn't seem to misunderstand her at all. The natural intimacy and sweetness between them could not be faked.
It was clear that this was how they usually were, and anyone who saw them would firmly believe that they would always continue like this.
Because the way Huo Xiyao looked at Xia Chu was truly full of nothing but deep affection and doting.
Xu Pei couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He really overestimated himself, thinking he could cause a misunderstanding between the married couple. They didn't take him seriously at all, and there he was, foolishly believing he could make an impact.
He was a completely thing of the past.
