Chapter 705: Wei Yu, Are You Crying? (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Wei Yu did not say a word.
Anger, powerlessness, mixed emotions…
This whole deception was even more unforgivable than the night she’d fled from the base without warning. She was smiling so brightly in the newspaper photo. Her proper gown made her look like a noble white swan. It was her hand that was holding another man’s.
And this picture was taken—yesterday.
Yesterday. She was clearly coaxing him on the phone yesterday…
While she was coaxing him, she was attending the party with another man…
“No wonder Miss Pei appeared at the foot of the mountain that night and was coincidentally picked up by Young Master. In the end, you even brought her back to the base. All of this was planned by her in advance, As for Young Master, every step you took was part of her plan.”
At this point, Ji He immediately revealed an understanding expression. “Young Master, look how much she hates you. She would rather bet her life on it to take revenge on you.”
Wei Yu crumpled the newspaper in his hand into a ball and said coldly, “Fei Yi,
Pei Jiao, so she told me her surname early on…”
Ji He had also thought of this when he came over with the newspaper. Wasn’t the word ‘Fei Yi t taken apart to read the surname Pei?! However, at first, no one would have thought that she was related to Pei Jiao.
Seeing that Wei Yu was about to leave, Ji He boldly went forward and stopped him. “Young Master, Miss Pei and Young Master Qin’s engagement is tomorrow. I’m afraid you won’t be able to see Miss Pei now.”
Wei Yu ignored Ji He and pushed him away.
“Young Master!” Ji He shouted. “It’s useless for you to go. Miss Pei has spent so much effort planning for so long. She just wants to see you in a sorry state for her. You can’t do as she wishes. You should stop your losses in time and stay away from her. Besides…”
Ji He was afraid that Wei Yu could not hear him. “Matriarch and Miss Wen Qiong also knew that Miss Fei Yi was Miss Pei! It’s all my fault for being slow to react that day. I clearly heard Aunt Xiuzhi say Miss Pei, but Matriarch said that I heard wrongly!
By then, Wei Yu had entered the elevator. However, Ji He felt that Young Master must have heard him!
Tan Hua Manor.
Wei was stopped outside the Tan Hua Mansion. He could not even see the door of the Pei residence. Uncle Dong rushed to the balcony upstairs. “Madam, Madam.”
Han Qianye turned around. “Huh?”
Uncle Dong walked forward and said, “The Wei family is here.”
Han Qianye turned to look at Pei Jiao beside her and poked her. “Daughter, did you hear that? The Wei family is here. I guess it’s most likely Wei Yu.”
When Pei Jiao heard this, she did not even look up, as if it had nothing to do with her. Seeing this, Han Qianye turned to Uncle Dong. “Go tell that kid that it’s too late today. The Pei family doesn’t receive guests. Tell him to go to Shengshi Hotel tomorrow to attend the engagement ceremony.”
Uncle Dong nodded. “Understood, Madam.”
A few minutes later, Uncle Dong personally walked to the entrance of the Tan Hua Manor. At this moment, there were several security officers standing at the entrance because Wei Yu had tried to barge in a few minutes before Uncle Dong arrived. Hence, there were only four security officers at the entrance. Now, four more came.
“You’re here.” The security officer recognized Uncle Dong and made way respectfully.
Uncle Dong nodded and walked forward to say to Wei Yu, “Hello, Mr. Wei. I’m the Pei familys butler, Uncle Donga Madam asked me to pass you a message. The Pei family is not meeting guests today. Please leave. In addition, Madam has invited Mr. Wei to attend the engagement ceremony of Miss and the new son-in-law at Shengshi Hotel at nine tomorrow morning.” Every word was polite.
Wei Yu said with a cold expression, “l want to see Pei Jiao.”
Uncle Dong advised, “You’ll see her tomorrow morning when you go to Shengshi Hotel.”
Wei Yu said, “Tell Pei Jiao that I won’t leave until she comes out tonight.”
Seeing how persistent Wei Yu was, Uncle Dong did not say anything. He shook his head helplessly and turned to go in. A few minutes later, Uncle Dong came to the terrace again. “Madam, Mr. Wei wants to see Missy. He said that if Missy doesn’t see him, he won’t leave tonight.”
Han Qianye chuckled. “Who is he threatening?”
Uncle Dong said, “He tried to barge in just now, but fortunately, he was stopped. 1 think he’s stubborn. I’m afraid he won’t leave until he sees Missy tonight.”
“Young brat, you really think too highly of yourself.” Han Qianye did not have a good impression of Wei Yu at all. It was all prejudice.
Pei Jiao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked, “Did he come alone?”
Uncle Dong nodded. “Yes.”
Han Qianye placed the fruit tea in her hand on the glass table and said unhappily, “No matter what he does, you’re not allowed to see him.”
Pei Jiao pursed her lips. “l didn’t plan to see him.”
On the glass table, Pei Jiao’s phone screen lit up and then turned off. It lit up again and again. It was all Wei Yu’s calls.
Pei Jiao turned on the silent mode, so she did not look at her cell phone. She was silent for a few seconds before reaching for her cell phone. Han Qianye patted the back of her hand gently. “Why? Did your heart soften when you heard that he won’t leave tonight and has to wait outside all night?” Pei Jiao retracted her hand. “1 want to call him back.”
Han Qianye said angrily, “In ancient times, Wang Baochuan dug wild vegetables. What do you want to do today? Learn to dig wild vegetables?” Pei Jiao was speechless. “Alright, I won’t call him back.”
The mother and daughter chatted for a while more about tomorrow’s engagement arrangements. Han Qianye could tell that Pei Jiao was distracted, but she did not say anything. She stood up and left so that she could catch her breath.
Pei Jiao looked back for a long time. After confirming that her mother had returned to the house, she picked up her phone. More than forty calls were from Wei Yu. Pei Jiao called him back and he immediately picked up. His low voice was filled with fatigue. “l thought you would never talk to me again.” Pei Jiao was very calm. “What’s the matter with all these calls?”
Wei Yu calmed himself down. “The Wei family has received an invitation. The Pei family wants to marry the Qin family. The engagement ceremony is tomorrow. ”
Pei Jiao chuckled. “And?”
Wei Yu said, “It has nothing to do with you, right?”
“How can it not be related?” Pei Jiao picked up the fruit tea beside her and took a sip. “After all, one of the protagonists of the marriage alliance is me. Didn’t I send you an address this afternoon? That’s the address of my engagement tomorrow. You’re welcome to come.’
“Fei Yi!” Wei Yu’s voice was almost hysterical on the phone.
Pei Jiao took a deep breath and maintained a calm attitude. She put down the fruit tea and said, “Fei Yi is my nickname. My main name is Pei Jiao. In addition, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”
If she did not hang up, Pei Jiao felt that she could not breathe. For some reason, her chest felt so tight that her heart felt like it had been minced into dumoline filling.
At this moment, Wei Yu said, “l want to see you now.”
Pei Jiao refused without hesitation. “Impossible.” “l beg you, I want to see you…” Wei Yu l s voice was very hoarse. “Can l?”
Pei Jiao frowned, her emotions indescribable. “I…”
“Fei Yi, come out… come out and see me, okay? I beg you…”
Pei Jiao, who was about to hang up, suddenly froze when she heard Wei Yu’s intermittent and hoarse tone.. She said in disbelief, “Wei Yu, are you crying?”
