Pei Zhuo turned his gaze from the screen to her: "Are you curious?"

Xu Nanyin: "Yeah."

Pei Zhuo turned his gaze back: "Then continue to be curious. I don't want to talk about it."

"..."

Xu Nanyin was so angry that she almost laughed. She glanced at his handsome profile with striking lines and confirmed the three treasures passed down from the Pei family: good looks, intelligence, and sudden meanness.

However, Pei Jingmo is very prominent in these three aspects, while Pei Zhuo is more reserved.

Glancing at Pei Zhuo's cold white neck, she pondered silently, if she attacked from behind and suddenly pinched him with both hands, could she knock him unconscious?

The vibrating ringtone rang, Pei Zhuo paused the video, took out his cell phone and answered the call.

I don't know what was said on the other end. After hanging up the phone, he lowered his head, looking stiff and dazed.

This seems like an opportunity, should we give it a try?

Xu Nanyin quickly brainstormed: first hold his head and smash it against the hardwood board at the edge of the bed, making him see stars, then strangle him, this way there would be a chance of winning!

She took a deep breath and carefully reached out her hands from behind towards Pei Zhuo's head...

"Grandpa passed away."

Pei Zhuo turned his head unexpectedly, looking at her with a gloomy gaze: "He knew that I faked my death, and he was shocked, so he couldn't be saved."

Xu Nanyin's hands, which were just about to touch the back of his head, froze strangely, and her heart was so nervous that it was about to jump out of her chest!

"oh oh……"

She didn't know what she was thinking, so she patted his shoulders with both hands and said, "My condolences."

Pei Zhuo sat on the ground with his head down for a while, put away the tablet and said: "Just stay here and don't make trouble. I won't hurt you." Then he got up and walked out.

A person who deceived and exploited his family and even plotted to kill his father would also feel sad and guilty about the death of his loved ones?

Xu Nanyin frowned, feeling that she was becoming increasingly unable to understand this person.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a doorknob turning.

When Xu Nanyin looked up, she was stunned to see a young and beautiful woman standing at the door carrying a big bag.

Wang Qian? It’s actually Wang Qian!

I thought she had disappeared for so long because Pei Zhuo had silenced her, but I didn't expect that Pei Zhuo had hidden her here.

Wang Qian threw the bag to the side of the bed. "Azhuo asked me to bring you some daily necessities."

Then he looked around Xu Nanyin rudely and sneered, "I thought the woman who could win over Pei Jingmo, that arrogant young master, was so powerful, but she's just like this. She only has a decent face."

"Oh." Xu Nanyin smiled wryly, "Thank you for praising me for being pretty."

Wang Qian was choked and stunned for a few seconds, looking at her sinisterly: "So what if she's pretty? You and Pei Jingmo are almost finished!"

Xu Nanyin didn't take it seriously: "Back then, when you and Jing Mo showed up at the hotel and Pei Han saw you, they got into a fight... you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

"You know all this? That's right, that silly boy Pei Han was quite innocent back then and easy to hook. But Pei Jingmo was too difficult to deal with. It was really hard to get him on a date."

Wang Qian was very proud: "I seized the opportunity to make them fight, and Pei Han and Pei Jingmo became complete enemies. Pei Han was toyed with by me, and he was deeply hurt. He started to go out and have affairs, becoming more and more dissolute and unemployed..."

Xu Nanyin sneered. These were naturally all instructed by Pei Zhuo.

On the one hand, he was guarding against his own brother, hoping that he would become a playboy and not fight with him. On the other hand, he was trying to instigate Pei Han to join him in opposing Pei Jingmo. His scheming was so deep...

So the vague discomfort and guilt he felt just now were actually just an act for her.

Xu Nanyin felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.

"Azhuo will definitely become the head of the Pei family, just wait and see!"

Xu Nanyin: "What about you? Do you want to become the mistress of the Pei family?"

Wang Qian's face was filled with the guilt and annoyance of having her secrets exposed. She glared at her and said, "It can't be you anyway!"

***

Ye Qingrou knocked on the door, but there was no response, so she gently pushed it open.

In the dim room, a motionless figure can be vaguely seen on the sofa.

She turned on the light and saw Pei Jingmo sitting stiffly with his legs apart, still wearing the same stained gray coat from yesterday. He clasped his hands together against his lips, staring at the seven or eight mobile phones on the coffee table without blinking.

Each mobile phone represents a team sent out to find the person, so as to avoid missed calls.

"Om..."

The cell phone rang and Pei Jingmo picked it up immediately.

"Mr. Pei, there is no news from your wife for the time being."

Just as I hung up, another phone rang.

"Mr. Pei, there is no news from your wife for the time being."

……

After several calls, Pei Jingmo's face finally became extremely gloomy. He picked up the phone and was about to smash it, but he tried his best to restrain himself and threw the phone back on the table.

Every mobile phone represents a hope of finding Yinyin, and we must never give up even a little hope.

"Jing Mo, it's been a whole day and night since last night. If you don't eat, your body will not be able to bear it." Ye Qingrou carefully placed the shredded chicken and spinach noodles in front of him. "If your body collapses, how can you find Yinyin?"

Pei Jingmo picked up the bowl of steaming noodles and started eating with chopsticks.

Ye Qingrou finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Are you really not going to call the police?"

"I can't report it."

This incident would become a scandal within the Pei family. More importantly, Xu Nanyin was in Pei Zhuo's hands, and if Pei Zhuo was pushed into a corner, no one knew what he would do.

"Pei Zhuo simply wants to kill me and take the consortium away. I'll wait for him to make his conditions. As long as Yinyin is safe, I'll agree to anything."

Pei Jingmo forced himself to eat a few mouthfuls, then put down his bowl and chopsticks, his eyes red. When he thought of Xu Nanyin, a poor little thing, starving somewhere, he couldn't eat anymore...

***

In the small room, Xu Nanyin finished a big chicken leg, drank a full bowl of pumpkin porridge, and ate two leek dumplings in one breath.

Wang Qian stared at him like an overseer and said sarcastically, "You have such a good appetite."

Xu Nanyin wiped her mouth and said, "If you have a problem with other people's good appetites, then you are quite mean."

Before Wang Qian could retort, she ordered: "Tomorrow I want to eat Su Ji's crab roe buns, two baskets."

Wang Qian was enraged: "Crab roe buns? Where can you find crab roe buns in this deep forest?"

Key point: Deep mountains and old forests!

Xu Nanyin remained calm: "Then I want to eat cream puffs!"

"Heh... Do you think you're still the young mistress of the Pei family, with a dedicated senior pastry chef?" Wang Qian sarcastically said, "We even have to secretly prepare meat dishes, and how can we make pastries for you?"

Another key point: even meat dishes have to be prepared quietly!

Why? Don’t vegetarian dishes use it?

Xu Nanyin was about to trick someone into giving her something else away when there was a knock on the door and Pei Zhuo appeared.

Pei Zhuo was wearing a light brown windbreaker, looking elegant and noble, with a clear and graceful demeanor.

Wang Qian looked at him eagerly: "A Zhuo."

Then, with a look of grievance on her face, she complained, "Azhuo, you came at the perfect time. I can't serve Miss Xu anymore. She treated me like a maid and ordered food from me..."

Xu Nanyin's heart suddenly became alarmed. Pei Zhuo, this fox, could definitely grasp her true intentions. She couldn't let Wang Qian continue talking!

"Miss Wang, what are you saying? I'm under a lot of psychological pressure because of you guys locking me up. I just want to eat something delicious. What's wrong with that?"

Xu Nanyin felt even more aggrieved than her: "How dare I treat you as a maid? You scold me when I eat a little more, and even threaten to give me leftovers tomorrow!"

"?"

Wang Qian's spellcasting was interrupted, her mouth gaping in shock. She watched helplessly as Xu Nanyin shook her head and sighed as she told Pei Zhuo, "How dare I order her around? After all, she's your beloved lover, the future wife of the Pei family's head."

Pei Zhuo frowned and looked at Wang Qian.

Wang Qian's face turned pale and she waved her hands quickly: "I...I didn't!"

"Didn't you tell me in person that I should just wait and see, that you were going to be the future mistress of the Pei family?" Xu Nanyin lied with her eyes open in a serious manner.
