The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.
Chapter 191: Evil people have their own trials and tribulations
On the third day, Luo Huai heard some news from his colleagues.
"President Pei of the Pei family is getting engaged."
"?" Luo Huai quietly slid his chair closer, this matter came rather suddenly.
"With whom?" Being in Chaoye Technology, they knew all too well that their boss wanted to bring down the Pei family. Given the Pei family's situation, which blind young lady would dare to marry into it?
"It seems to be the daughter of the richest man in J City. It happened around noon. My friend works at a hotel and saw the Pei family having dinner with the Zhang family, the richest family in J City, and they talked about the engagement."
"Miss Zhang is thirty years old this year. As for her looks, well... I can only say she is very lucky. It seems like the Zhang family is afraid that President Pei will run away. As soon as he nodded, the Zhang family immediately took out an engagement letter and asked them to sign it. My friend and her colleague were shocked!"
"However, President Pei was very calm. My friend saw that President Pei was very calm."
"So, did you sign it?"
"Signed."
Luo Huai recalled what he overheard at the Qiao family charity gala: it turned out that the gigolo Miss Zhang wanted to keep was Pei Yuanzhou.
The Zhang family in J City is indeed wealthy. If the Zhang family provides their full support, the Pei family might actually have a chance to turn things around.
However, she seemed to remember that this Miss Zhang was not appearing in Ningcheng for the first time. At the last birthday banquet of Old Master Fu, Miss Zhang kept getting close to Pei Yuanzhou, and Pei Youyou seemed to look down on her for being the daughter of a nouveau riche.
What would Pei Youyou do if she knew that this nouveau riche's daughter was about to become her sister-in-law?
Pei Youyou's injuries are serious, and she has not yet been discharged from the hospital.
She still lives in a VIP ward, enjoying high-class treatment, with caregivers and her mother by her side.
Losing Lin Zhengyu's child was good news for Pei Youyou, but the bad news was that she would never be able to conceive again.
Pei Youyou didn't cry because of this. Deep down, she felt that she was just a little girl who needed her parents' love and her brother's protection. How could she possibly have a child and worry about it?
She was crying because Lin Zhengyu had deceived her feelings, cheated on her with another man, and caused her family to fall into their current state of poverty.
Therefore, she did not hesitate for a moment when pointing out Lin Zhengyu.
She still wanted to find Xiang Nan, but for this she received a solid slap from her mother, the first time her mother had ever hit her since she was a child.
"That's ridiculous! Who has the time and energy to help you find him right now? Xiang Nan has already taken the money and disappeared somewhere!"
"Do you know that it's because of your willfulness and misbehavior that our family has ended up like this? Look at your father, his hair turned completely white overnight. And look at your brother, do you know how long it's been since your brother has had a proper night's sleep?"
“If your brother doesn’t rest properly, he won’t be able to continue working. He can only take sleeping pills! At first, he only needed half a pill, but now he needs to take a whole pill to be effective!”
"Please, have some mercy and stop being so willful."
“I didn’t teach you well, and I already know I was wrong. You should also realize your mistakes, you know? Look at the environment you’re in now. Your dad said he wanted to move you to a regular ward to reduce expenses, but your brother wanted you to recover properly and didn’t agree.”
Both mother and daughter were crying.
Pei Youyou was still sulking and hadn't spoken to her parents for several days. As for her brother... she could only talk to him if Pei Yuanzhou had time to come to the hospital.
The family's relationship had been strained for less than a week when Pei's mother took the initiative to speak up: "Your brother is coming later, along with your sister-in-law. Remember to be polite."
Hearing that her brother was coming, Pei Youyou's eyes lit up, but when she heard that her sister-in-law was also coming, she looked puzzled.
"Your sister-in-law's name is Zhang Jiayuan, and she's not much older than your brother."
"When did this happen?" Pei Youyou finally asked. "When did my brother get married?"
“We didn’t have a wedding ceremony. We got engaged the day before yesterday and registered our marriage today.” Pei’s mother kept her head down. “We’ll hold the wedding ceremony when Pei’s situation is more stable. We won’t hold it in Ningcheng.”
The Zhang family's intention is that they can't get involved in the conversation and can only listen to what they say.
Pei's mother wiped away tears at the thought.
“Zhang Jiayuan? Who?” Pei Youyou searched diligently for the names of wealthy young ladies she knew, but there was no one like her.
Before her mother could answer, the person arrived.
"It's you! Fatty!" Pei Youyou's eyes widened. She recognized him; he was the daughter of a nouveau riche, and far too fat! Plain-looking, how could he be worthy of her brother?
"Hello, little sister." Zhang Jiayuan's eyes narrow into slits when she smiles. She is 1.65 meters tall and weighs 145 kilograms. She doesn't think she is particularly fat, but in other people's eyes she is a big fat person.
What's wrong with the fat girl? She has fair skin!
They say fair skin hides a hundred flaws, and she thinks she's alright; not a great beauty, but definitely not ugly either.
Although she didn't like Pei Youyou, her husband doted on this younger sister, so as long as Pei Youyou didn't give her a hard time, she wouldn't slap her.
"This is a gift for you. I hope you recover soon." Zhang Jiayuan handed over an ordinary paper bag containing a black plastic bag, the kind commonly found in supermarkets.
Pei Youyou didn't even want to look at it.
"Aren't you looking forward to it?"
Pei's mother immediately smoothed things over: "Of course I'm looking forward to it! This is a gift from my sister-in-law, isn't it, Youyou?"
She took out the items, and her fingernail accidentally tore the black plastic bag, causing stacks of cash to fall to the ground with a clatter.
Pei's mother: "..."
Zhang Jiayuan asked expectantly, "How is it? Do you like it? If you respect me as your sister-in-law in the future, treat your older brother better, and stop doing things that hurt the Pei family, and change your arrogant and spoiled rich girl temper, and also, stop gossiping behind people's backs and bullying others... I can give you even more!"
Actually, she had a lot more to say, but she decided to say less, otherwise she would upset her husband.
Zhang Jiayuan reached out and took Pei Yuanzhou's hand.
Pei Yuanzhou smiled wryly, his smile tinged with bitterness. Pei Youyou and her mother looked even more constipated.
Zhang Jiayuan didn't care whether they were suffering or embarrassed; as long as she was happy and liked it, that was enough.
"Also, honey, you can't marry that jerk like Pei Youyou did, okay? As long as we're happy and loving, I can give you lots and lots of gifts like this!" Zhang Jiayuan looked at him expectantly. "Do you like them?"
Pei Yuanzhou said, "Thank you."
Zhang Jiayuan: "Who should I thank? I should say thank you to my wife!"
Pei Yuanzhou: "Thank you, wife."
Pei Youyou couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she covered her head and turned to sleep.
Zhang Jiayuan: "Impolite children don't get gifts, and they should be punished."
Pei Yuanzhou and his mother didn't dare to utter a sound the whole time, since Zhang Jiayuan was their family's great benefactor.
Upon learning of this, Luo Huai simply smiled nonchalantly, showing no concern.
Zhu Shuangshuang, who had flown in from her hometown, kept laughing, "They've finally met their match!"
Luo Huai: "Evil people will be punished by other evil people."
