Even though Pei Mingchen knew that he was Pei He, Pei Mingchen still brought his men to give him a good beating.

At the moment, Pei He had to sit in a wheelchair. He was really unlucky.

Pei Mingchen was about to speak when the Pei family’s door was opened and the butler walked out.

“Second Young Master, please come in.”

The butler, who was only called the second young master, directly told Pei Mingchen that the Pei family does not welcome Pei Mingchen.

Pei Mingchen was not surprised. After all, his mother had cut ties with the Pei family for the sake of a man.

It was normal for the Pei family to not welcome him. Pei Mingchen sneered in his heart..

His gaze returned to Pei He.

Pei Mingchen came to the Pei family purely to look for Pei He.

Originally, Pei Mingchen was going to the hospital to look for Pei He. However, Pei He left the hospital in the afternoon.

When he heard that the Pei family was having a family dinner tonight, he went to the Pei family home. However, He had no intention of going in at all.

Pei Mingchen just did not expect that Pei He would arrive even later than him.

When Pei Mingchen saw the things in the hands of the driver behind him, he did not find it strange anymore.

“I’m here to look for you. Let’s talk over there.”

Pei Mingchen pointed at a big tree not far away. Pei He hesitated.

Seeing that Pei He was npt moving, Pei Mingchen pushed his wheelchair and forcefully brought Pei He to the tree.

Seeing that the Pei family driver and butler were about to go forward, Pei Mingchen’s driver raised his hand and stopped them.

“I won’t hurt Second Young Master Pei. Don’t worry.”

Pei He recalled that Pei Mingchen had said that Pei Mingchen would beat him to death. Pei He was extremely flustered.

However, the breaks of the wheelchair were stepped on by Pei Mingchen. Pei He could not move the wheelchair at all.

“Why are you looking for me? Do you want to beat me up again?”

Pei Mingchen did not answer but continued to speak.

“Use your name to send something to Mu Qiannian.”

Mu Qiannian?

Pei He looked at him with a puzzled gaze. “What’s going on between you and Mu Qiannian?”

Then, Pei He thought of the man who was treated gently by Mu Qiannian in the hospital. His expression was serious.

“You’re not interested in Mu Qiannian, are you?”

Without waiting for Pei Mingchen’s reply, Pei He took it as a tacit agreement.

Pei He said disapprovingly, “Actually, Mu Qiannian already has a gigolo. Moreover, she really cares about that gigolo. If you want to get involved, I advise you not to think about it. Looking at Mu Qiannian’s appearance, she won’t get tired of playing with him for a while.”

Pei Mingchen did not like to hear Mu Qiannian’s name from other people’s mouths.

This was especially so for those who had once coveted Niannian. When Pei Mingchen looked at Pei He with his sinister gaze, Pei He could not help but shudder.

“F*ck, why are you looking at me like that? I’m telling the truth. She really has a gigolo by her side, and it’s the kind of gigolo who doesn’t hide anything. She doesn’t like me, so it’s even more impossible for you.”

Just as Pei He finished speaking, he heard Pei Mingchen’s smug voice, “I’m the gigolo that you’re talking about.”

Pei He’s eyes widened when he heard Pei Mingchen’s words.

Pei He, who only reacted after a long time, could not help but raise his hand and point at Pei Mingchen as he asked in fear.

“So, the person who was in the ward with Mu Qiannian that day was really you?”

Pei He did not dare to associate the person from that day with Pei Mingchen.

At that time, although he felt that the gigolo was similar to Pei Mingchen, he did not take a closer look.

Moreover, the gigolo had denied it. How could Pei He still think that the person was Pei Mingchen?

Pei Mingchen did not reply. Instead, he stared at a spot not far away.

Pei He remembered that he still needed a wheelchair. He could not help but say, “You really know how to pretend.”

Pei Mingchen glanced at him indifferently and did not continue to talk nonsense with him.

When Pei Mingchen took out his phone from his pocket and turned on the recording function, he gave a cold order.

“Speak into the phone and say that you have Madam Su’s fingernails. You can take them to the hospital for a paternity test.”

Pei He widened his eyes and was about to ask him how he got them.

However, Pei Mingchen’s cold gaze shattered his curiosity once again.

Perhaps because of the painful experience he had last time, Pei He subconsciously began to fear Pei Mingchen.

Pei He did not even dare to ask why Pei Mingchen had hit him.

Pei He was able to force Pei Mingchen to attack him, so he must have done something that had angered Pei Mingchen.

If Pei He had taken the initiative to ask, it might have provoked Pei Mingchen’s dissatisfaction again.

If he was beaten up by Pei Mingchen again, his current physical condition would be severely damaged.

Pei He could not take Pei Mingchen another time.

Pei He followed Pei Mingchen’s instructions and spoke to the phone in a calm and serious tone.

Pei Mingchen was very satisfied as he put the phone back into his pocket and turned around to return to the car.

Pei He was under the big tree and did not move until he beckoned for the driver.

That damned Pei Mingchen had stepped on the brakes of his wheelchair and was leaving, but Pei Mingchen did not unlock it for him!

In the hotel, Mu Qiannian did not sleep very well.

She had just fallen asleep when she was awakened by the ending of her previous life in her dream.

Pei Mingchen was dead. This was the ending that she never wanted to see again in her life.

She recalled the conversation she had with Pei He today and found a notebook and a pen.

Mu Qiannian sat on the carpet and tried her best to recall the scene in her dream. She tried her best to perfect the image of the house in her dream bit by bit.

When she had a rough outline, Mu Qiannian’s gaze changed. She stared at the outline in the notebook with a complicated expression.

She had always known that she would dream of a house, but once she woke up from the dream, it would be difficult for her to recall the details.

She did not know why she was able to draw an outline just now.

It was the same outline as the mansion Pei He had shown her in the afternoon.

Could it be that Mu Qiannian had seen a clear picture of the mansion in the afternoon and could not help but substitute what she saw into the mansion in her dream?

Just as she was feeling upset, the sound of the doorknob being twisted sounded.

Mu Qiannian looked in the direction of the sound and saw Pei Mingchen.

She was extremely disappointed at that moment. When she saw Pei Mingchen, she could not help but feel extremely depressed.

Without thinking, Mu Qiannian stood up and pounced into Pei Mingchen’s arms, hugging him tightly.

It was the first time Mu Qiannian had been so dependent on him. He was surprised and happy, and his expression changed rapidly.

Pei Mingchen was happy that he could feel Niannian’s dependence on him. He was shocked that he was worried that Niannian might have met with some trouble. She looked like she was in a bad mood.

“What’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood?”

Pei Mingchen hugged Mu Qiannian tightly in his arms and rested his chin on the top of her head, waiting for her to release the bad mood and pressure.

Mu Qiannian was indeed under a lot of pressure, but because of Pei Mingchen’s warm embrace, the pressure seemed to be slowly melting away.

“A little, but I can still bear it.”

With that, she withdrew from Pei Mingchen’s embrace and stood opposite him, looking at him with a smile.

“Didn’t you say that you were going to give me a surprise?”

She spread out her hands towards Pei Mingchen and said expectantly, “Hurry up and show me the surprise you’ve prepared for me. Could it be something that I like the most?”

Pei Mingchen looked at her spread out small hands and her impatient expression, and his heart could not help but soften.

His Niannian was really cute, cute to the point of wanting to hold her tightly.
