The Wei Yu that Pei Jiao knew would not shed a tear easily even if he was tortured and in pain. But just now, she vaguely heard his low and hoarse voice. Her first reaction was that he was cryingâ¦
When she asked the question bluntly, Wei Yu denied it vehemently. âI didnât! Why would I cryâ¦â
Pei Jiao choked on a laugh. âSo I was thinking too much. Thatâs right. Why would someone like you cry?â Her tone was thin and cold. Just like that night when she raised her hand and hit his neck, decisive and resolute.
Wei Yu said slowly and stiffly, ââ¦I know you hate me.â
Pei Jiao said, âSince you know it, why say it?â
Wei Yu said, âIf you donât come out to see me, Iâll snatch the marriage tomorrow. â
Pei Jiao chuckled and said indifferently, âAre you threatening me?â
âYes, Iâm threatening you. If you donât come out to see me now, Iâll definitely snatch the marriage tomorrow. Iâm going to disrupt your engagement.â Wei Yuâs tone was firm.
At this point, Pei Jiao naturally did not doubt the authenticity of Wei Yuâs words. Since he had said it, he would definitely carry it out. Pei Jiao only felt that if Wei Yu threatened someone else, it was very likely that he would succeed. But threatening her? It could only be said that he thought too highly of himself.
Pei Jiao threw him three words indifferently. âI wonât come out!â Then she hung up and dropped her hand on the glass table. She was so angry! At this point, this man was still so arrogant. He actually thought that he could make her compromise by threatening her. If she really compromised tonight, she would definitely be controlled by him again in the future.
Of course, she had no intention of having any more dealings with him.
After the fake engagement was held, it would be best if she could make him so angry that he would lie in bed for ten days and half a month. From then on, the two of them would never contact each other again.
Huh? Weird? Why wasnât there any movement on the cell phone? She forcefully hung up the call, but Wei Yu stopped calling her incessantly?!
Pei Jiao was not sure if she had been too angry just now to notice her cell phone. She took back her cell phone and looked at it. There was really not a single call. There were a lot of WeChat messages, all of which were blessings.
The moment she opened it, there were all kinds of blessings. She thought that she would feel slightly better after reading a few more of these blessings. In the end, the more she read, the more depressed she became. She simply turned off her phone. âOut of sight, out of mind.â
She drank the fruit tea and got up to go to sleep. At this moment, Uncle Dong rushed over, looking quite anxious.
âYoung Miss! Uncle Dong hurried to Pei Jiao, panting.
For some reason, Pei Jiao suddenly had a bad feeling. âWhat happened?â
Uncle Dong panted. âItâs that Mr. Wei. He, he, heâ¦â It wasnât that Uncle Dong was deliberately saying half of it, but that he was almost out of breath. He was old and had run too quickly just now. It took him a long time to make himself clear. âIt was that Mr. Wei who had a conflict with the security officer at the door.â
Pei Jiaoâs eyebrows twitched. âDid he break in?â
âNo!â Uncle Dong said. âHe was beaten.â
Pei Jiao heaved a sigh of relief. âHe deserved it.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing that Wei Yu had been beaten up, Pei Jiao had no sympathy at all. âHe really thinks that the security officers of Tanhua Manor are pushovers. He even dared to barge into Tanhua Manor.â
Of course he deserved to be beaten!
Uncle Dong was not finished. âBut, Miss, Mr. Wei was beaten up a little badly.â
âBadâ¦? How bad is it?â Pei Jiao was calm a second ago, but when she heard that Wei Yu had been beaten up a little seriously, she felt a little nervous and worried.
Uncle Dong: âI heard that thereâs blood all over the ground. Weâve called 120!â
âWhat? The ground is covered in blood?â The scene of Wei Yu lying on the ground being kicked by many people instantly appeared in Pei Jiaoâs mind.
Her heart skipped a beat. âHow did this happen? Heâs Young Master Wei after all. Donât they know how to control their strength?!â As she spoke, she walked in and prepared to go downstairs. Before Uncle Dong could react, Pei Jiao was already downstairs.
Uncle Dong immediately caught up. âMiss! Miss, where are you going?â
Pei Jiaoâs face was dark and solemn. âIâll go take a look.â
Uncle Dong was worried. âBut Madam said you canât go out tonight.â
By then, Pei Jiao had already walked away. âJust donât tell her.â
Uncle Dong: ââ¦â How could she not know if I didnât tell Madamâ¦
Pei Jiao was just in time.
The ambulance had just arrived when she arrived.
Uncle Dong was really not exaggerating. There was a pool of blood on the ground, and Wei Yu was lying on the ground half-dead. There were a few security officers standing beside him, but no one went to help Wei Yu up. He watched coldly.
Seeing this, Pei Jiao was furious. She ran over as quickly as she could. âWhat are you doing?â
As Pei Jiao arrived, the eight security officers made way for her. Her aura was like a tidal wave. When Pei Jiao saw that Wei Yuâs nose and mouth were covered in blood and he was lying on the ground on his last breath, her heart felt like it had been stabbed. She squatted down, but because she was afraid that she would use too much strength to aggravate Wei Yu t s injuries, her helpless hand stopped in midair, not daring to touch him.
âWei Yu?â Pei Jiaoâs voice was trembling, but she did not notice it.
Wei Yu, who was in a pool of blood, slowly opened his eyes. The moment he saw that it was Pei Jiao, he forced a smile and said with difficulty and intermittently, âYouâre finally willing to see me.â
With that, he fainted. It was as if he had resisted for so long just to wait for Pei Jiao.
âWei Yu?â
âWei Yu, wake up? Wei Yu?â
Pei Jiao carefully grabbed his wrist, her fingertips quickly tainting the blood on his body. She shouted a few times, but Wei Yu, who was completely unconscious, did not respond to her.
Pei Jiao suddenly turned to look at the security officers standing at the side. âIf he wants to barge in, just stop him. Donât tell me that the eight of you can stop him alone. Why did you beat him up like this?â
At this moment, the medical staff who had gotten out of the ambulance were walking over quickly with a stretcher.
The security officers who were questioned by Pei Jiao were all frightened and afraid of her anger. One of them mustered his courage and said, âItâs Mr. Peiâs orders. Mr. Pei asked us to do as we please. If anything happens, we donât have to be responsible.â
ââ¦My brother or my father?â Pei Jiao asked.
The other bodyguard gathered his courage and said, âBoth.â
Pei Jiao understood that it was not just one person. It was her brother and father. Perhaps her mother had also tacitly agreed. She was getting engaged tomorrow, so they would not attack Wei Yu at this time. However, Wei Yu happened to come forward at this time and ask for a beating.
âMadam, please move aside,â the medical staff beside her reminded Pei Jiao.
Pei Jiao stood up and moved aside. Then, she watched as the medical staff carried the unconscious Wei Yu onto a stretcher. Blood dripped from Wei Yuâs hand. His hand was hanging to the side and the ground was covered in blood. It was a shocking sight.
Then another paramedic asked, âWhoâs his family?â
One of the security officers said, âHis family is not here. You can just take him away.â
The paramedic nodded. âSure.â
But as he turned around, the medical staff was stopped by Pei Jiao. âWait a minuteâ!â The paramedic turned around and Pei Jiao said, âIâm his family. Iâll accompany you. â
The medical staff asked, âWhatâs your relationship with the injured?â âHey, donât ask. Letâs go. Save him first, or heâll bleed to death.â
Pei Jiao did not think too much about it and followed them into the ambulance. The security officer stopped her. âMiss Pei, you canât goâ¦â
Pei Jiao was inexplicably angry. âYou beat him up so badly. Canât I go to see him?â
The security officers looked at each other. In the end, no one dared to stop Pei Jiao from following the ambulance..
