CHAPTER 201 - HE ACTUALLY MANAGED TO CLIMB UP THAT TALL BRANCH OF YENAN 1.

Don't worry about her.

Should you tell her?

Do you think she's someone who can explain things clearly? Pei Zhijun laughed coldly. At this point, his secretary knocked on the door, Pei Dong, the meeting is about to begin.

Hm. He nodded his head as he glanced at Pei Qingcheng, his tone filled with helplessness, I'll tell you about your matters later.

Pei Qingcheng heaved a sigh of relief. How could she explain the matter between her and Ye Fan so clearly with just a few words?

She did not need to hold the meeting of Pei Zhijun.

Pei Zhijun had people symbolically give her some work which would not tire her, but it would also not make her feel like she was here to roam the world.

He had a good grasp of the situation.

After dealing with a few documents, he raised his head to stretch his neck before Huang Xiaochang reported, Second Miss, a young lady is looking for you.

Before he could even ask for her surname, a tall woman flashed out from behind him.

What Miss? This staff member, you don't know me? "

Pei Qingcheng could clearly see that it was Sang Ri.

Seeing that her head was a bit heavy, she thought that the person who called Pei Zhijun just now was probably here because he didn't want to pick her up.

Huang Xiaochang was flabbergasted. He stared at Sang Ri for a long time before shaking his head, Miss, who is this?

I'm afraid you'll have to call me Lady Boss.

Huang Xiaoru was even more confused now. Pei Qingcheng stood up and waved her hands at Huang Xiaoru, Go out first.

Oh. Huang Xiaochang left the office.

How come a general manager's office is about the same size as a chief executive's office?

Pei Qingcheng stood up and pointed to the sofa, inviting her to sit, Why is Miss Sang here?

If you really don't want to call me by my name, I can accept calling me sister-in-law. She sat down on the sofa, spearing.

What do you want to drink? Coffee?

What's so good about the company's coffee for employees? Sang Rui lazily leaned against the sofa and said, Bring me a bottle of bubble water!

No bubble water. Pei Qingcheng retrieved a bottle of distilled water from the fridge and passed it to her, My brother went to have a meeting.

I know. I just went to his office. His secretary was still stopping me from entering. Are all the employees these days so blind? Your sofa feels quite comfortable. I'm dead tired, so I'll be lying down next to you.

Of course, Pei Qingcheng's sofa was comfortable. Two months ago, she had fallen asleep in her tired office. After saying a few words of comfort, she had moved into her office.

Pei Qingcheng looked at Sang Ruiniang, Miss Sang, I want to have an office meeting with you in a while.

Just drive. Keep your voice down. I don't mind.

Pei Qingcheng wanted to laugh. Who in the world didn't mind?

She said patiently, Why don't I get someone to take you to the lounge?

Is the sofa in the lounge as comfortable as your office? she asked.

It should be more or less the same.

No need, I'm too lazy to move. Are you worried that I'll steal your trade secrets? Alas! She lifted the earphone in her hand and stuck it in her ear. I promise I won't listen. I'll listen to the song."

Pei Qingcheng was not worried about this. If Sang Ri had been a business background, she wouldn't have bothered to pester Pei Zhijun so much.

Since she was unwilling to leave, Pei Qingcheng had no choice but to follow her.

After her meeting, she fell asleep.

Huang Xiaochang looked at her in astonishment, Second Miss, who is this woman?

Pei Qingcheng didn't even know how to introduce him to her. She stared at him for a few seconds, and realized that it was almost noon.

For the time being, she showed no signs of waking up.

Miss Sang. Pei Qingcheng gently nudged her.

She slept very soundly, not even waking up from her sleep when she tried to push him away.

Pei Qingcheng stared at her for a moment before replying helplessly, Let her be!

When it was time for lunch, he couldn't stand by and watch over her so she wouldn't even eat lunch.

He took his bag and walked to the door, but before he could open the door, it was already opened by him.

A sharp and murderous aura gushed in through the gap in the door. Pei Qingcheng lowered her head and knocked her forehead against the buttons of her shirt. It hurt so much.

He raised his head and met Ye Chong's eyes.

Why are you here? She blurted out, Why are you here now, instead of in the morning?

I'll pick you up for lunch. He took her by the shoulders and pulled her into his arms.

I didn't say I was going to have lunch with you. She really wanted to break free from his embrace, but the man's arm was wrapped around her. Even though he didn't use much strength, she was unable to break free.

I've asked for your secretary, but you didn't make an appointment at noon. The man's magnetic voice floated above her head.

Even if I don't have an appointment, I don't have to eat with you.

The man didn't say anything, but the strength in his arm didn't loosen in the slightest.

Looking up at the man's perfectly contoured face, a feeling of resistance arose in his heart.

Let go. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was filled with ice.

At this moment, the sound of high-heeled shoes could be heard from behind her. Sang Ri Ni sized up Ye Ci in astonishment. She stared at him for more than ten seconds with her mouth agape, her gaze landing on his arm that was wrapped around Pei Qingcheng.

Suddenly, she grabbed onto Pei Qingcheng's wrist and pulled her out of Ye Mo's embrace. Pushing her to the side, she whispered into her ear, Qingcheng, is that person Ye Qingcheng?

Yes. She nodded.

Huh? How did you get to know Ye Xiu? Moreover, this relationship does not seem to be just about knowing each other.

Pei Qingcheng replied indifferently, You haven't been in Mo City for the past two years, there are some things that you are unaware of.

What is it? Is he courting you? "

We are husband and wife. Pei Qingcheng's expression grew even paler.

What? Are you husband and wife? When did you get married? " Sang Ri was so surprised that her words became incoherent.

Pei Qingcheng had a cold smile on her face as she walked towards them. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind as she looked into Sang Ri's eyes and asked, Didn't we have an appointment for lunch?

Ah? Is that so? Sunny blinked.

That's right, big bro is waiting for us at the office. Let's go! Pei Qingcheng held onto her arm and said, Let's go!

He pulled her back, but she couldn't budge him. She just stood there, looking up at Nightmare, and suddenly said in a soft voice, Brother-in-law, let's go together at noon.

Brother-in-law? Sang Ri had always been familiar with it. Pei Qingcheng gave her another tug and said, Let's go!

Is brother-in-law busy at noon? Sanreenie still stood there, refusing to go.

Pei Qingcheng looked at her with a look of regret on her face. She had initially hoped that she would be smarter, but now it seemed as though there was no hope at all.

Ye Ye gave her a shallow look, lightly smiled and said, It seems that you didn't make an agreement.

There's still time for the appointment. We'll be together at noon. We're family anyway.

Pei Qingcheng felt a little awkward. She found the person she should be looking for to block the sabre with, the most philistine and saintly of them all, Sang Rini.

She bit her lips and did not say anything. Her tired hand had already grasped her wrist. With a light tone, she said, Next time, I like the world of the two of you.

Pulling Pei Qingcheng along, he left, not allowing her to rebel or question his words.

Hey, who's that? Sang Rui asked as she stared at him for a long time. Huang Xiaoran walked past her and suddenly was stopped by her. Hey, who's that?

My surname isn't that one. Huang Xiaochang pulled her hand away and asked, What business do you have with me?

Hey, when did Pei Qingcheng marry Ye Wen?

Huang Xiaochang looked at her and scoffed, Miss, can I trouble you to wipe your own saliva first?

Sang Ri really did wipe her lips, only returning to her senses after she had wiped them did. She glared at Huang Xiaochang and asked, What did you say?

Huang Xiaocheng laughed and then walked away from her.

Hey, you! You!" Sang Ruinie stamped her feet, but Huang Xiaolan was already far away.

She looked at the empty doorway for a moment, then turned and walked back to the office.

Pei Zhijun had been very busy recently. Unless there was a lunchtime meeting, he would ask his assistant to bring him some lunch every time.

At the door, the secretary stopped her, Miss, our chairman is not available for lunch.

Ha! You know who I am. That's all you have to say to me?

The secretary looked up and down suspiciously. Who is this?

You don't even know who I am? New guy? Sanreini glanced at her secretary and pushed her away. Get out of the way.

The secretary was pushed aside, and she opened the door and went in.

Pei Zhijun looked down at his laptop, a sandwich in his mouth and focused on his work.

When she reached his table, he said without looking up, For a cup of coffee, no milk.

Sang Rui leaned over and took the sandwich from Pei Zi Yun's mouth, The lunch is so casual.

Hearing her voice, Pei Zhijun raised his head and saw her standing in front of the table. He immediately frowned and did not bother to hide his displeasure, Sanrelini, I don't want you to mess around where I work.

What nonsense is she up to? Sang Ri pouted, feeling wronged as she continued, She knew that you had a meeting this morning, so she hid herself on Mo Qingcheng's sofa for the whole morning, causing my waist and legs to ache.

Pei Zhijun looked at her coldly, before shifting his gaze to her back, Little Li.

As he was calling for his secretary, Secretary Li immediately stepped forward, Pei Dong.

How did Director Pei arrange for lunch?

I was about to order a meal for Director Pei, her secretary said... Before Secretary Li could finish his words, Sang Rui cut him off, Qingcheng's husband came to fetch her for dinner. Why don't we go together?

Pei Zhijun finally shifted his gaze onto her. What did you say?

Qingcheng's husband, our brother-in-law, Ye Wen!

Pei Zhijun's eyes were quickly filled with a layer of gloom. He subconsciously turned his head to look out the window at the building below. Coincidentally, both Pei Qingcheng and Ye Wen had just walked out of the Pei household.

Pei Zhijun's face was already rather unsightly, but it was obvious that she did not notice his increasingly vile expression. She continued, You guys never told me that Qingcheng actually managed to climb up the branch Nightingale belongs to. Besides, Nightmare is so handsome. I saw Leonardo last time in London, so I guess he must be at the top of his looks."

Sanreenie. Pei Zhijun's cold voice rang out, Shut up.

Huh? For some reason, Sang Ruiniang stopped in her tracks. Seeing that Pei Zhijun was about to explode with anger, she asked in shock, What? Is it because I'm praising other men for being handsome?

CHAPTER 202 - GIVE HER BACK YOUR MONEY AND I'IL TAKE HER AWAY

Sanreenie. Pei Zhijun's eyebrows creased into a small ball of flesh.

Whenever he saw her, his brow would furrow involuntarily.

It was difficult to have the slightest bit of patience with this woman. After talking to her for three minutes, all of her patience would be washed away.

Pei Zhijun looked at her patiently, For the sake of the past, I'll give you a chance to walk out on your own. If not, I'll call for protection.

Yes, my lord! As soon as she had taken a step forward, he picked up the phone on the table and said curtly, Call for security, quick.

Zhijun, why are you so heartless to me?

We broke up a long time ago, he said as he sat firmly in his chair. He looked down at the folder on the table and casually said, As far as I know, you have used the name of my girlfriend countless times in the past few days since you came back to Mo City.

Why are you pretending? I'm your girlfriend anyway. Have we ever said goodbye to each other?

Indeed. Pei Zhijun had a sardonic smile on his lips, When the Pei family was in decline, Miss Sang had disappeared. Later, when I was in prison, I asked many people to find out who you were. I found out that you were flying all over the world, and the men around you were constantly changing places.

The expression on her face froze for a moment, and then she closed the door with a smile, Those are all for show. You wouldn't mind.

I will.

Ah! She blinked and then smiled charmingly, Are you jealous? Yes, Lord … She dragged her voice as she said coquettishly, I know you're angry at me, so now that you're angry at me, I'm not angry at you. Don't worry, I'm not serious about that. You're the only one."

Miss Sang. Pei Zhijun laughed coldly, If I had not been released from prison, or if the Pei Family were still in dire straits, I might not have had the honor of meeting Miss Sang, right?

If you weren't out of prison, how would we be in love? She was right.

At this time, the leader of the security guards pushed open the door and walked in with a few people behind him. Mr. Pei. They looked at Sang Ri in front of them and hesitated.

Pei Zhijun put on a pair of blue goggles and leaned back in his chair. He picked up his mobile phone to watch the news. He pointed a finger at Sanrelini and said, Take her out.

Yes. The guards approached her. Miss Sang, please!

Hey, don't come near me. If anyone dares to touch me, I'll show you! When she saw that Pei Zhijun was serious, she flew into a rage and stomped her high heels. She looked down at Pei Zhijun who was still looking at her phone and said, Zhijun, are you really that heartless? You've already explained it to me. If you had any flowers or plants outside, I wouldn't mind at all!

Pei Zhijun impatiently glanced at the security guard and asked, Are you still not taking them away?

The guard grabbed one of her arms and dragged her out of the office.

Secretary Li was about to close the door and follow her out when Pei Zhijun called out to her, Call the police the next time you see this woman.

Yes. Secretary Li answered and closed the door.

Sang Ruinie was driven out of the Pei household, crying and screaming.

She wouldn't get off the elevator herself, so the security guard picked her up, carried her out of the elevator, and threw her out the front door.

She did not care about her image as she stood at the entrance wailing. Just as Pei Qingcheng and Ye Wen were about to leave in the car.

The air was fresh, the air conditioner was off, and the windows were open, so that she could hear her crying.

Nightingale took a glance outside the car, and with just one glance, she shifted her gaze away from the car window and landed on the little woman in front of her.

Your brother is heartless towards his ex-girlfriend. He said indifferently.

It's better to be heartless. Pei Qingcheng had also seen Sang Ruiniang's reaction, Since she's the predecessor, let's split the information cleanly. It's like cutting off all connections and harming oneself.

Her voice was warm and emotionless, as if she was trying to use something to make a name for herself. It was as if she was just discussing the matter.

Ye Wen looked at her deeply, but didn't say anything more.

What do you want to eat? He looked at her gently.

Whatever. She closed her eyes and answered lazily.

Old Yellow. Ye Yan thought about it and said, Let's go to the banyan tree!

The banyan tree was a Cantonese restaurant that sold raw seafood. The price of a krill increased several times when compared to the food he served. However, the taste was not bad.

Pei Qingcheng did not comment, since she had already said that she would do as she pleased.

Not far from the banyan tree, on the first floor of the shopping mall in the center of the city.

Fatigue ordered their signature dish, then they sat facing each other and waited in silence.

Her appetite wasn't very good. Ever since those random things happened one by one, she had lost all of her appetite. Every day, she would be full after eating a little.

She lowered her head and played with her nails, pretending not to see the man opposite her.

There was a strand of hair fluttering in front of her eyes, and she didn't bother to brush it away.

A hand lifted her hair and tucked it behind her ear.

Ye Zichen lifted his eyelids and saw Nightingale squatting in front of her. His handsome face was very close to hers.

His heart was beating very hard, but he didn't show it on the surface at all.

She hid behind him. Why are you squatting here?

What are you thinking about?

Nothing. My mind is blank. What she said was the truth. She hadn't thought of anything just now.

Inclined. He called out to her, but he only said her name, and he did not say the rest.

His dark eyes focused on her for a long time. When the waiter came to serve, he straightened up and returned to his seat.

Actually, when Ye Wen approached her, she was a little nervous. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hide from his gaze.

It was just that perhaps she was too good at hiding her emotions.

It was truly fortunate that he did not see through her panic.

The food was served and they ate slowly.

Nightingale was very good at ordering. She had fresh and fresh seafood, crisp and delicious cold dishes, and also a spicy grilled fish. Such a combination was very good at evoking her taste buds.

Unknowingly, he had eaten quite a lot.

When she stopped and looked up, the man didn't eat much. Most of them were helping her peel the prawns and pick the fish bones.

Nightingale's gentleness and consideration for her had probably reached its peak.

When she was full, she put down her chopsticks and said lightly, Director Ye is always as gentle as he can be. In the future, I'm afraid I won't be used to it if I'm a different man.

Hearing her say this, Ye Wen smiled, What if I don't give you the chance to do so?

Heh. She smiled perfunctorily and stood up from her chair. I need to go to the washroom.

As he watched the woman's slim figure disappear into the corridor, the phone on the table rang. He lowered his head to look at it and picked it up, Pei Dong.

Pei Zhijun had already called several times, but he did not pick up the phone in front of Pei Qingcheng.

He knew that Pei Zhijun would find him sooner or later.

I'll see you in your office at 2: 10. Pei Zhijun's voice was still calm and indifferent.

My office is just about business.

It's business.

Ye Wu Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the shell on the table. After a few seconds, he replied, Ok.

After hanging up, he thought for a moment.

Pei Zhijun had some business with him, and it was all about his investment in Pei's family.

Pei Zhijun didn't want to owe him any favors. Every day, he would think about how to toss the huge sum of money back to him.

Just as he put down his phone, Pei Qingcheng had already returned. She stood a few meters away from him, I'm going to the company this afternoon.

Alright, I'll send you back.

No, I can take a taxi.

You think I'll let you take a taxi? Ye Wen lowered his head to look at the watch on his wrist. It was almost two o'clock. Since he had promised Zhi Jun, he did not want to be late.

Let Old Yellow drive you back. Ding Han is at the door, I'll take his car and leave.

Since that was the case, Pei Qingcheng did not hold back and took the lead, walking towards the entrance.

The two of them got into the car, and before they could even say their farewells, Pei Qingcheng's car drove away.

Master. Ding Han looked at the itinerary in his hands, You have a small salon this afternoon, shall we go over first?

Then cancel it! Ye Yan leaned back in his chair. Back to the company.

Is there an emergency?

Pei Zhijun has an appointment with me.

Oh. Ding Han nodded his head and instructed the driver to drive. He then turned around and said to Ye Xiu, "During this period of time, Pei Zhijun has signed a new contract with a few European groups. I heard that they have all received an advance payment.

To pay back the money. Ye Chong pursed his lips, If it's a short period of time, he would have collected enough money. It can be considered his skill.

Master, did you have any enmity with Master Pei in the past?

What enmity does he have with me? With an inexplicable and wondrous enmity, even Ye Wen himself was speechless. If it weren't for the tipping, there wouldn't be any sort of relationship between us. Perhaps we would have met at the shopping mall.

Nightingale was a smart person, she wouldn't easily make enemies. It was better to have a friend than an enemy.

Ding Han lowered his head and muttered to himself, Then I don't understand why Pei Zhijun would reject you so much. The way he looks at you is like looking at a love rival.

Ye Wen looked at him, Perhaps, to him, I am a love rival. He changed the subject, I let you find out. Have you found anything?

Master, we've already checked, but why did you ask me to check the birthplace of Senior Brother Pei?

Nightingale did not answer and just drove them straight towards her house.

It was exactly 2: 10 when he arrived at the office.

The secretary waited at the door, saying to Ding Han with his head lowered, Pei Dong of the Pei clan is waiting for you in the office.

Hm. Ding Han nodded his head, Go make some tea and prepare some refreshments.

Yes.

When Nightingale walked into the office, Pei Zhijun was already sitting on the sofa waiting for him.

Hearing the sound of tired footsteps, he did not turn around. Instead, he raised his hand and looked at his watch. Chairman Ye is very punctual. He's not late.

Pei Dong is long here. Nightingale sat down in front of him. What business do we have with each other?

It seemed like Pei Qingcheng had arrived rather early, and there was already a cigarette butt in the ashtray.

He picked up the folder on the table and handed it to Nightingale. Chairman Ye, I'll have to trouble you to take a look.

He didn't need to look to know what was inside.

Nightingale took it, opened the folder, and poured out a few sheets of paper.

After reading it roughly, he opened the cigarette case on the table, took out a cigar, lit it, and placed it between his middle and index fingers. He was in no hurry to smoke.

Pei Dong. He paused for a moment before continuing, I quite admire you. In just a short month, you've managed to gather so much money.

Once you sign the document, your money will be transferred to the account.

Pei Dong, do you know the consequence of your impatience? He finally raised his hand and took a drag, letting the smoke slowly rise from his nose. The smoke lingered and spread over the two men's heads. You will make Pei's money flow tight. If you make a mistake, it will be irreparable.

As long as I can save Qingcheng from you, it's worth it no matter what.

As far as I know, Pei Dong is a master of arts, there's no reason for him to use such inaccurate words. Ye Wen smiled sleepily.

I don't want to use the word redemption. Pei Zhijun's eyes grew colder by the second. Though it's more or less the same.

I'm not at the tiger's den, Qing Qing is willing to be with me.

I'm afraid not? Pei Zhijun pursed his lips, Qingcheng has already asked for a divorce. You used those ten months of agreement to pressure her. Now that the money has been returned to you, I shall take my Qingcheng away.

Nightingale lowered her head and looked at the documents on the table. She … she isn't yours.

CHAPTER 203 - HIS FEELINGS FOR YOU ARE NOT SISTERLY

The two men sitting across from each other looked at each other for several seconds.

Ye Wen could see the hostility and hatred in the eyes of Zhi Jun Pei.

Ding Han was right, the way he looked at him was exactly the way he looked at his rival.

As such, he had no choice but to be suspicious of this matter and start investigating it from the perspective of Zhi Jun's background.

Pei Zhijun threw a pen in front of Ye Xiu, Chairman Ye, please sign.

Like I said, this money is my investment in Pei family.

You don't even want the money that is delivered to you, do you still want to nibble away our Pei family? Pei Zhijun laughed coldly, Pei Dong is already able to cover the sky in Mo City with his hands. Don't tell me he doesn't even leave us with a chance of survival? Take your money, and I'll include the interest.

I can take the money, but it's not convenient for you to interfere in the matter between me and Qing Qing. Ye Wen took the pen, signed his name on the contract, and handed it to Zhi Jun: Remember, you are just an older brother.

Pei Zhijun stared at the pen and contract given to him by Nightingale.

Relaxing and relieved, a smile actually appeared on his face. As long as you accept, it's good enough. Tonight, I'll go to your residence to pick up Qingcheng and bring her home.

Saying that, he did not give Ye Xiu a chance to say anything else and stood up, Now that the two of you are even, so are you.

Pei Zi Yun then walked out of his office.

Staring at Pei Zi Yun's retreating back, Ye Wen was at a loss.

A few months ago, it was because of this money that he allowed Pei Qingcheng to remain by his side.

Now, Pei Zhijun's money had been returned to him, along with a considerable amount of interest.

Between him and Pei Qingcheng, the bridge was already broken. If Pei Qingcheng wanted to leave him, there was no reason to keep her by his side.

The Pei household, Pei Qingcheng's office.

There seemed to be more work in the afternoon, one document after another, and it was only before closing time that he felt slightly more at ease.

Just as he was about to get off work, Pei Zhijun pushed open the door and entered the room. He stood tall and tall in front of Pei Qingcheng's desk, Qingcheng, if there's nothing else tonight, please accompany your brother to eat some Huai Yang food.

Yes. She nodded. I'll pack up. You wait for me.

After packing up, they walked out of the office and saw Lao Huang parked his car in front of the Pei's main entrance.

She said to Pei Zhijun, Brother, let me say hello to the driver. He is going to take me back to the Zhuang Family.

Hm. Pei Zhijun nodded, You can tell him that there's no need to pick you up in the future.

Brother. Pei Qingcheng bit her lower lip in distress, This is a matter between me and Ye Wen, I've already promised him before. Bro, can you just ignore it?

The deal is over, and there is no need to keep the promise. Pei Zhijun stretched out his hand to the assistant beside him, who handed him a folder. He retrieved a few pieces of paper and handed it over to Pei Qingcheng.

What is it? She took it suspiciously, looked down at it, then raised her head to look at Pei Zhijun in astonishment, Brother, you've already returned the money you lent us to the Pei family?

Yes, so you don't need to worry about anything. I will pay him in full, including the interest. He did not suffer any loss on this matter.

But, where did you get so much money? We, the Pei household, have only just gotten back on track. "

Your brother's ability shouldn't be limited to this. Pei Zhijun smiled elegantly as he looked at Pei Qingcheng, I've said it before, I will use the fastest method to pull you away from Ye Chen.

Pei Qingcheng clutched the contract tightly and said softly, I'll go greet the driver first. We'll talk later.

Pei Zhijun brought Pei Qingcheng to the restaurant, which they used to visit often.

Pei Zhijun liked to take Pei Qingcheng to eat all kinds of delicious food. Every time, the shop owner would mistake them for a couple. Furthermore, they did not look alike, so it was normal for them to admit their mistakes.

Pei Zhijun pointed at the signboard as Pei Qingcheng continued to read through the documents in her hands.

Seeing that she had almost memorized it, Pei Qingcheng raised her head to look at his handsome face, Brother, you've gathered so much money in such a short amount of time. It can't be that you're still …

Nope. Pei Zhijun placed her hand on the back of Pei Qingcheng's hand and gripped her slender fingers tightly, Don't worry, I won't let anyone take the opportunity to frame me like last time. Right now, there are only the two of us here, my greatest duty is to protect you, do you understand?

Yes. Yes. Her heart was filled with a myriad of emotions, and she couldn't tell what they were.

Pei Zhijun looked at the expression on her face and continued to hold her hand, We don't owe you any favors. What, you don't seem happy about it?

No. She quickly shook her head. Of course I'm not unhappy. I'm just worried about you.

As I said, the money was properly channeled and secured.

Now that she knew who Pei Zi Yun was, she could finally relax.

She believed in Pei Zhijun's ability.

Therefore, the promise between you two no longer exists. You don't need to stay by his side anymore.

Pei Qingcheng stared dumbfoundedly at the steamed buns in front of her. It looked like a very ordinary dish, and it would definitely not be simple for her to eat it.

His mood was very complicated. He felt relaxed while carrying the huge bag on his back, but there was also a sense of disappointment.

Catching the subtle changes in Pei Zi Yun's facial expression, Pei Zhijun picked up a piece of three-yellow chicken and placed it into her bowl, If you wish to leave him, you can do so anytime you want.

After a long time, she finally replied, Tonight, I will tell him to come home tomorrow at the latest.

Alright, it's good that you've made your decision.

For the rest of the dinner, she did not know what she had eaten.

Although she ate a lot, she ate as much as Pei Zhijun gave her. In reality, her mouth was bland and tasteless.

After the meal, Pei Zhijun sent Pei Qingcheng back to the village to sleep. He then stood by the door to watch her leave.

In fact, she did not need to stay here for another night.

However, Zhuang Shengxiao's dream still held some special meaning to her.

When she got home, Nightingale had come back and was sitting on the sofa in her room, reading a book.

She put down her bag, did not change her clothes or hurry to wash up, and sat down across from Ye Wen.

Ye Wen put down the book, his eyes blazing. You have something to say to me?

Yes. She nodded, then took out the contract from Pei Zhijun and pushed it in front of him, Today, did my brother pay back all the money you lent to us?

Yes. His expression was very calm and unhurried. The way he looked at her was as if there was a veil separating them, making it impossible to clearly see each other's true feelings.

She pursed her lips into a smile, If that's the case, then our Pei family will owe you nothing in terms of money.

You can think of it that way. He shrugged his shoulders in agreement. Besides, I don't think you owe me anything from the beginning to the end.

It's not important. She licked her lips. She ate a lot and was a little thirsty, Then there will be no more deals between us. The previous promise can also be terminated.

After saying that, without waiting for him to finish, she hurriedly stood up and said, So, our ten months can end. If Chairman Ye doesn't object, I want to go home tonight.

Just as he was about to turn around, Ye Wen spoke softly, Qing Qing, we can leave our matters to the side for now, but you can't go back to the Pei household, or you can't be alone in the same space with Zhi Jun.

Pei Qingcheng could not understand his words. She turned to look at Ye Wen, who had just taken a bath. His hair was still slightly wet, and his slightly curled bangs were resting on his forehead, giving him a moist and sexy look.

What do you mean? she asked.

Qing Qing, in the eyes of outsiders, the feelings that Pei Zhijun has for you are a little deformed.

Pei Qingcheng bit her lips and retorted without thinking, That's because you have no siblings. He had just finished speaking when he remembered Shen Lo's words. He sighed dejectedly. You don't understand the feeling of mutual dependence. You don't understand my feelings for me.

At the beginning, I really didn't understand why you would want to interfere in my sister's emotional life. However, after I investigated one thing. Ye Wen stood up and walked towards Pei Qingcheng, standing in front of her. His tall stature blocked all the light from the table lamp behind him.

Pei Qingcheng raised her head to look at him, she was hiding in the shadows, her expression could not be seen, What do you want to say? What did you find out about my brother?

Your brother wasn't born in Motown. He was born in Singapore.

What? Pei Qingcheng frowned, What do you mean, born in Singapore?

According to Pei Qingcheng's understanding, her brother should have been born in Mo City, and she had never heard of him being born in Singapore.

Pei Zhijun was born in Singapore.

So what?

Your mother never went to Singapore the year your brother was born.

Pei Qingcheng widened her eyes as the meaning behind her words were obvious. She could easily guess the meaning behind them.

She thought about it for a moment, then rejected it instinctively. I don't understand what you're talking about.

In other words, Pei Zhijun and you are not one and the same.

She took a step back, and at the same time, for some reason, thought of the will she had seen in her mother's room, in her safe.

His parents had left everything to Pei Qingcheng, and there was no mention of Pei Zhijun.

Back then, Pei Qingcheng felt that it was strange. However, many things had happened in that period of time, so she didn't give much thought to it.

Now that she thought about it, if her brother was not her parents' child, it would not be weird for him to leave everything to Pei Qingcheng.

Her mind was in a state of confusion. Memories were churning in her head, piece by piece.

Big brother did not seem to be very close to his parents since he was young. He rarely had any intimate actions with them.

Pei Zi Yun's personality was indifferent and indifferent, and the person who was the most passionate to his family was probably Pei Qingcheng.

Pei Zhijun had a natural talent and should have been entrusted with important duties by the Pei family since she was young. However, her father only gave her the position of manager, and never allowed him to join the board of directors.

For this, Pei Qingcheng had asked her father, but had not received a positive answer.

Now that he thought about it, it seemed like the original question could be answered.

Because Pei Zhijun was not his parents' child, he treated him with kindness.

Her hand was on the arm of the sofa, but she still couldn't believe it.

She shook her head. No, that's impossible.

Since I've already told you about this, I'll investigate very clearly. Pei Zhijun is not your brother, so his feelings for you are definitely not limited to brotherly feelings. Ye Wen lowered his head to look at the confused Pei Qingcheng, and placed his hand on her shoulder, The feelings he has for you are those of a man and a woman, he wants to possess you.

No! She shook her shoulders and shook off the hand Ye Ci had placed on her shoulder. This is ridiculous.

I'm afraid that even if I don't tell you, you will feel that something is wrong, won't you?

Yes, really.

Pei Zhijun had treated her better than most siblings.

And he did indeed have a strong enmity towards Ye Xiu, even towards Yin Ha from back then.

However, it was still very difficult for her to accept the fact that someone who had been her brother for more than 20 years was completely unrelated to her.

She slumped down on the sofa and asked weakly, What about my brother? Does he know about it himself?

CHAPTER 204 - BRO THESE WORDS OF YOURS WILL MAKE ME FEEL SICK

Pei Zhijun was already five years old when he came to the Pei Family. Do you think he knows? Ye Wen squatted in front of Pei Qingcheng and placed a cup of warm water on her palm, He knew all along that you were the only one.

Her fingers trembled as she held the cup. She tried to put it to her lips a few times but to no avail. Still, Nightingale brought the cup to her lips.

She took a sip of water and almost choked. I don't understand. Why do my parents have to raise my brother?

It is said that your parents have been married for many years without any children, which is why they adopted him from an orphanage in Singapore.

So, actually, my brother is an orphan in an orphanage?

Yes, we also found some information about him in the orphanage. Ye Wen handed over a stack of documents to Pei Qingcheng. She casually flipped through them, and found that they were the documents recorded in the orphanage in Singapore by Zhi Jun when he was young.

Pei Qingcheng felt as though her whole world was collapsing. She felt so dizzy that she couldn't even feel her surroundings.

She leaned back on the sofa and let go of the file, which slid from her fingertips to the floor.

So, Pei Zhijun has feelings for you, a man and a woman. After knowing all of this, are you still going to return to his side?

She could not help but shiver. In her heart, she had always treated Zhi Jun as her brother. When she thought about how he had more than just brotherly feelings for her, she felt an uncomfortable feeling from the bottom of her heart.

She slumped back on the sofa, not wanting to say anything.

It was impossible for her to come up with a decision in such a short amount of time.

Ye Zichen's tired phone rang. He lowered his head to look at it, then walked out of the room.

Going or staying was one problem.

If she stayed, she and Nightingale would no longer need to be dragged into it.

But if she left, where else could she go other than to the Pei household?

However, when she found out about this, she could not get along with Zhi Jun like she used to.

She was stunned for a long time. Pei Zhijun called her, and it was only after several times that she finally woke up.

Ye Zichen blanked out when he saw the word 'older brother' on the screen. Only after a while did he get through.

Hello. She was weak.

Qingcheng, what's wrong with your voice? Are you not feeling well, or what has Nightmare done to you?" Pei Zhijun's tone was nervous.

No. She sat up straight on the sofa.

Then, did you mention anything to Ye Ye?

Yes. She snorted absently.

Let's go tonight. I'll be waiting for you at the door.

Huh? Pei Qingcheng was startled, You've been standing at the door the whole time?

Yes, I haven't left yet.

You, he habitually called out to his big brother, but he couldn't say it. He didn't know what to call him, but suddenly, a very familiar person became unfamiliar. This feeling was very uncomfortable: I'm very tired tonight, so be it!

What you mean is that you're staying in the Zhuang Shengxiao realm tonight?

Yes.

Is there any point in staying for another night?

Can you leave me alone?

You're not suited to being tired. Pei Zhijun said, Maybe you don't know what kind of man you are.

Brother. Pei Qingcheng interrupted him. Right now, she did not have the courage to question his background, nor did she have the strength to argue. She could only weakly say, Brother, I will take care of my own matters. Give me some time, we'll talk in a few days.

Then she hung up.

Ye Zichen chucked his phone onto the sofa, then looked up to see Ye Xiu standing at the door.

She must have heard the conversation between her and Zhi Jun.

She leaned her head against the back of the sofa.

The man's magnetic voice came slowly from the door. Why not ask him directly over the phone? Are you afraid that he won't admit it, or that you won't be able to accept it?

It's my business. She said with her eyes closed, I hope you won't interfere if you still want me to stay here.

The man's footsteps drew closer to her, and the sofa beside him collapsed. The man then sat down beside Pei Qingcheng, saying slowly, If you don't want to do something, I naturally won't force you.

I have a favor to ask of you.

Yes.

Before I think about how to deal with this, please don't spread the news.

I'll listen to you. The man stretched out his arms and embraced her tightly.

He leaned against the man's chest as if he had someone to rely on. His wavering heart gradually calmed down.

However, she was still shocked, like a frightened rabbit. Even though the hunter had already left, she was still unable to calm down.

At this moment, she hoped that Nightingale was lying to her.

Her life was complicated enough that she didn't want it to get any more complicated.

At some point, she had fallen asleep. When she woke up, she was lying on the bed.

However, Ye Wen wasn't by his side. He looked down to see that his clothes had also been changed into pajamas.

She didn't drink last night and was very clear-headed. However, she didn't even know when she fell asleep or when she had her pajamas changed.

After he got up, he found a small slip of paper on the bedside table. On it were the cursive words: If you are not feeling well, then rest at home for a few days. I will accompany you to lunch.

Being at home was even more boring, and he would think more.

Therefore, she still went to the office after breakfast.

She also knew that once she went to the company, she would inevitably run into Pei Zhijun.

She still hadn't figured out how to face him, but escaping wasn't an option either.

In the end, they met Pei Zhijun in the elevator. He was dressed in a light coloured suit and was very handsome.

He had always felt that his big brother and his parents didn't look like him.

Father wasn't too tall, about 175 years of age. Pei Zhijun was nearly 1.9 meters tall, which was about the same height as Ye Xiu.

The more he looked at it now, the more it didn't look like him.

She hesitated for a moment before walking in to stand beside Pei Zhijun, Brother.

Qingcheng. Pei Zhijun placed a hand on her shoulder, You don't look too good.

She quickly retreated to a corner, avoiding his hand, I'm fine.

Her reaction was a little too quick. Pei Qingcheng stared at her for a moment before pressing the button for her office.

Come home with me tonight. Pei Zhijun looked at the numbers jumping above the elevator and said in an irrefutable tone.

She lowered her head and replied in a tone that was neither humble nor haughty, Yesterday, I said that I will make my own decisions.

I'm really curious. Pei Zhijun retracted his gaze and stared at Pei Qingcheng, What exactly happened last night that caused you to change your mind so quickly.

Pei Zi Yun's handsome face was shrouded in a layer of faint anger. Pei Qingcheng rarely saw him angry, and most of the time, he would keep a straight face.

She really wanted to ask him if what he had said about Nightmare was true or not.

But Nightingale was right. Since he had told her, he must have found out.

Therefore, once she asked this question, her relationship with Zhi Jun Pei would definitely change.

She had called him 'big brother' for so many years, she just wanted to be his little sister.

She restrained herself and said nothing. Her gaze lightly swept past him.

Just then the elevator arrived, the door opened slowly, and she walked past him.

As soon as one of his feet stepped out of the door, his arm was grabbed by Pei Zhijun.

Qingcheng. These two words, he called out with repressive patience, as if they contained countless suppressed emotions.

Pei Qingcheng quickly recalled the words Ye Wen had said last night: Pei Zhijun has never been a sibling to you, but a man and a woman instead.

Instinctively, she shook his hand away. I'm going to the office, brother.

Pei Zhijun walked out of the elevator and grabbed Pei Qingcheng's hand as he walked towards her office.

Seeing them walk over, Huang Xiaochuan went up to them happily, Eldest Young Master, Second Miss, do you want to make fruit tea …

Pei Zi Yun did not give her a chance to speak. He pulled her into his office and closed the door, leaving her standing there in a daze.

He closed the door, even locking it behind him.

Pei Qingcheng was a little flustered and pulled her hand away from his palm. She spoke in a hoarse voice, Brother, this is the company, what's the matter …

Do you want to give me a chance to go home with you? His voice was cold and laced with impatience. Qingcheng, are you poisoned by the poison of Nightmare?

It has nothing to do with Ye Xiu! She turned her head. It's my own decision. I want to temporarily stay in Zhuang Shengxiao's dream for a while.

Why?

There's no other reason. I hope you can give me a chance. I will take care of my own matters.

You won't! He moved closer to Pei Qingcheng and suddenly put his arms around her shoulders. A hint of madness and pain flashed across his eyes: You cannot stay by Ye Wen's side! Do you know how I spent last night? How did I spend so many nights when you weren't around? When I think of you by my side, and the possibility that you might be together with him, I feel as though I've fallen into an abyss, as if ten thousand needles are poking at me. You can't understand that feeling …"

Brother … Pei Qingcheng wanted to struggle but was unable to do so. Her shoulders were almost crushed by him as she asked, What are you talking about?

Don't you hate Ye Xiu so much? Why did you tell me that you love him? Why, why?" He gripped her shoulders tightly, shaking her body violently. Pei Qingcheng felt as though all the bones in her body were about to be shattered by him.

That's my problem … She feebly rebutted, and the man in front of her seemed to have lost all sense of reason, his eyes wild and confused.

Nightmare was right, this wasn't the way big brother looked at his little sister.

The way a man looks at a woman.

She shivered. Even though she knew that Pei Zhijun might not be her own brother, she still found it hard to accept and even felt disgusted.

This is the office, brother. I don't want to talk about this!

Leave Nighteyes, divorce him, and come back to me. Pei Zhijun's pained aura gushed towards Pei Qingcheng, I can't stand the thought of you staying by Ye Wen's side!

Brother, don't you think it's strange for my older brother to say such words? She retreated a few steps, panting as she said, I am only your little sister, I have the right to choose my love life. Saying these words will only make me feel that it's perverted …

Qingcheng … Pei Zi Yun's aura instantly turned sluggish as he stared at her downcast eyes. He then placed his hand on her shoulder again, I'm sorry, I lost control of my emotions just now.

Not just losing control. Pei Qingcheng closed her eyes before raising her head to look into his dark eyes, The words you just said will make me feel extremely disgusted.

Qingcheng …

Big Brother, do you have something to tell me?

His dark eyes flickered. What can I tell you?

Really?

Nope.

At this moment, if she had more courage, she really wanted to ask him, Are you adopted by my parents, or are you my blood brother?

Or she could wait for Pei Zhijun to tell her himself.

However, even after waiting for a long time, she did not hear a single word from Pei Zhijun.

Initially, after Ye Wen told her about the background of Pei Zi Yun, she was skeptical.

However, even a fool could hear the words spoken by Pei Zhijun just now.

Pei Zhijun was not a pervert, and his feelings for Pei Qingcheng were not deformed either.

However, he'd never been brotherly towards her.

It was the kind that men loved women.

Love.

CHAPTER 205 - OKAY I AGREE

Qingcheng …

Brother, I'm very tired. I want to be alone for a while. She turned and looked out the window at the sun.

In the reflection of the glass window, Pei Zhijun's silhouette could clearly be seen.

He was tall, tall, and his eyes were heartbreaking.

However, Pei Qingcheng only felt a sense of unfamiliarity and disgust.

In her heart, regardless of whether or not Pei Zhijun was her brother, he would always be her brother, and there would never be a second relationship.

She didn't say anything. She didn't turn around.

Pei Zhijun stood silently behind her for a while before turning around and walking out of the office.

She let out a long breath at the sound of the door closing.

He lowered his head and saw that his bare arm was covered in fine goosebumps.

After standing at the window for a long time, she faintly heard a knock on the door. It was as if she had fallen into a thick layer of clouds, making her unable to distinguish her surroundings.

Until someone gently nudged her, Qingcheng, what happened to you?

She turned around and saw Shen Kui standing in front of her. Why are you here?

Yes, I came to meet you for lunch.

Lunch. Isn't it just morning?

It's already half past eleven. Qingcheng, your face is so ugly. Are you feeling unwell?

Eleven thirty? Pei Qingcheng looked down at her watch. Indeed, it was already eleven-thirty.

She had been standing in front of the window for hours without realizing it.

Although she didn't have much appetite for it, Shen Kui couldn't possibly chase her away since he had come all the way here.

She picked up her bag. Okay, let's go!

Qingcheng, last time I heard you say, is Lou Yu Lou in your Pei clan?

Pei Qingcheng stopped and looked at Shen Lun for a moment before saying, Oh, I understand. You're not here to look for me for a meal, are you? You're here to continue lobbying Lou Lan?

Heh. Shen Lo threw his arms around Pei Qingcheng's shoulders, I knew Qingcheng would be the smartest one, she could easily see through me.

Didn't he explain it clearly last time? He's still not giving up?

Sigh, it's been a few days and I still haven't found anything suitable. How could I find Lou Yu Lou pleasing to the eye? How about this, you help me persuade him to go for the audition. Actually, you all said that he's not suitable for acting. Maybe he doesn't have a good feeling about the mirror and isn't as good as real people in front of him? Just make me give up on this idea, okay!? Shen Li grabbed onto Pei Qingcheng's shoulder and shook her with all his might, causing her to feel dizzy and dizzy from all the shaking.

Alright. You're really persistent. How do you know that I can persuade him?

Eyes, Lou Yu Lou looks at you differently from others. Shen Lo winked at her and said, I've read a lot of people, I can see through Lou Yu Lou's thoughts.

Don't spout nonsense. Pei Qingcheng patted her, He's just a child.

Twenty-three years old and a child? Sigh, if I wasn't desperate, I wouldn't dare to let you use a beauty's trick. If my brother finds out, my head will be ripped off. Shen Li pursed his lips and pulled on Pei Qingcheng's arm, fawning on her: Qingcheng, please do me a favor and help me out! My maiden show, it's all on you! "

Pei Qingcheng let out a long sigh, Fine, I'll ask him out for a meal.

There's no need for that. You guys eat alone. I'm afraid that he will be unhappy when the electric light bulb shows up. I still think it's more likely for you to talk to him alone!

Pei Qingcheng looked at her helplessly, I'm only trying. I can't guarantee that he'll agree.

Of course.

Shen Li left in satisfaction. After thinking for a while, she decided to go to the marketing department to look for the building.

Coincidentally, she met Lou Yu Lou at the entrance of the marketing department. The little brother's pale green shirt and jeans were refreshing and pleasing to the eye.

Pei Qingcheng had seen Shen Cui's script before as well. She truly felt that the character was very suitable for Lou Yu Lou, so she had no reason to say anything about Shen Li's foresight.

However, this sort of thing could not force others to make things difficult for them.

Seeing Pei Qingcheng, Lou Yu Lou seemed to be rather surprised as well. With a pretty smile, she replied, Qingcheng.

Lunch?

Yes.

Then, let's go together?

Alright, I've just received my salary. I'll treat you.

Alright. Pei Qingcheng smiled and nodded her head, Let's go.

In order to take care of Lou Yu Lou's wallet, Pei Qingcheng chose a place that wasn't too expensive and started to burn iron.

At the entrance, the Rain Tower stopped, Qingcheng, you don't have to help me save money. My salary is still considered to be considerable.

I'm not saving money for you, this is what I want to eat today. Pei Qingcheng waved her hands in front of her nose, Wow, it's really fragrant.

Really? He looked at Pei Qingcheng with distrust.

Really, I really want to eat it. Pei Qingcheng grabbed hold of Lou Yu Lou's arm and pulled him into the restaurant.

Ye Zichen ordered a pile of most of them, then propped his chin up as he watched the chef help them cook.

Originally, he wanted to persuade Lou Lan to go easy on him, but now, he didn't want to say anything.

There were too many things piled up in his heart, causing him to feel a little depressed.

What's wrong with you? Is there something on your mind?

Pei Qingcheng turned her head to the side as Lou Lan supported his head with his hands and looked at her.

She smiled and shook her head. Nothing. She quickly changed the topic, Are you enjoying your time with Madam Pei?

Well, I like my job. It's challenging.

That's good. She tried to think how to put it, but she was never a very good lobbyist: Actually, it's more challenging to try something you've never done before, or even something you hate.

Hmm? Lou Yu Lou looked at her in confusion. For example?

For example, the thing you hate the most, if you do it well, you will feel a sense of accomplishment.

What exactly?

Ugh. She thought for a moment, then smiled shyly. For example, the second male lead in Shen Lu's new movie.

After saying this, he felt that his skills were too weak. Such straightforward lobbying didn't have any skill involved at all.

Lou Yu Lou looked at her
