Gao Qi had never truly grasped the intentions of Song Xun and Pei Liyan, but Si Ran and Fang Mo both understood.
Song Xun took Gao Qi and left first.
After seeing him out, Pei Liyan arranged for Fang Mo and Si Ran to find Song Muyu to escort her back.
anwhile, only Pei Liyan and Lu Heming remained in the VIP room.
Lu Heming said, "Liyan brother, Chen Haimin probably won’t let things go easily and might even make a move on Miss Song."
Pei Liyan replied gravely, "That’s why I want you to keep an eye on Chen Haimin. Gather so evidence of his cris, and if necessary, send him in."
"Yes!" Lu Heming nodded imdiately. "I’ll take care of it. Oh, and since you’re here in Liancheng, why don’t you check out Ludao’s financial statents first?"
"No," Pei Liyan said indifferently, "Give a break."
"But brother, you haven’t looked at Ludao’s financial statents for over a year," Lu Heming urged anxiously. "I get worried when you don’t check them."
Pei Liyan looked at him and said solemnly, "Heming, you’re the one in charge of Ludao."
"But you’re the boss!" Lu Heming said earnestly. "Ludao is yours."
"Lu Heming!" Pei Liyan’s voice sank again, slightly lower in tone.
"Yes, Liyan brother!" Lu Heming was startled and then quickly replied, "My apologies, I know I’m wrong."
"Don’t ever speak of this again; keep it to yourself," Pei Liyan said as he rose to his feet. "Ludao is indeed mine but also yours! Instead of dwelling on this, consider opening a branch in Qingcheng!"
Lu Heming stood up imdiately, very respectful. "Liyan brother, after what you said last ti, I started planning imdiately, and now there’s a solid plan. Do you want to see it?"
"Tomorrow, I’ll arrange to et you alone," Pei Liyan gestured him to co closer.
Lu Heming leaned in at once.
Pei Liyan whispered in his ear, "Quietly break up Song Xun’s engagent with the Shen Family, and Song Xun will be thankful to you."
Lu Heming was taken aback, "Brother, doesn’t Mr. Song like Miss Shen?"
Pei Liyan remained silent.
"But the word is, Mr. Song and Miss Shen are deeply in love. After they get engaged, the Song Family and the Shen Family will beco the two strongest, unbreakable financial groups in Liancheng."
Pei Liyan nodded. "Do as I say, but be careful not to let the old Mr. Song find out."
"Yes!" Lu Heming nodded. "I’ll be careful."
"I should go now," Pei Liyan said as he walked away.
Si Ran ca to find him. "President, Miss Song refuses to leave. She’s still drinking and seems to be in a bad mood."
Pei Liyan replied gravely, "Si Ran, you should be able to take soone away by force, right?"
Si Ran was startled and imdiately responded, "Yes, I’ll go get her right now!"
Five minutes later.
Si Ran had Song Muyu slung over his shoulder in the parking lot.
Song Muyu, being carried off by Si Ran, felt dizzy, "Put down, are you Pei Liyan’s secretary?"
"Yes, Miss Song," Si Ran replied calmly.
"Put down!" Song Muyu shouted, "Let down now, or I’ll have to fight back."
"Miss Song, please don’t force Special Assistant Fang to act; if he does, it would be quite troubleso for you, so let continue to carry you."
"I can walk on my own; I’m going to be sick if you keep carrying like this!" Song Muyu really did feel nauseous, she was in a poor mood having had a bit to drink.
Fang Mo said, "Put her down, Si Ran; Miss Song really doesn’t look well."
Only then did Si Ran set her down.
Pei Liyan appeared just then and saw Song Muyu looking very ill. He said, "Miss Song, I’ll take you ho."
"What, are you nosing around in my business?" Song Muyu was very hostile towards him, knowing the inside story, she obviously had no good feelings towards Pei Liyan.
"Yes, I’ve decided to nose into your affairs tonight," Pei Liyan said with gravity.
Song Muyu snorted derisively, "Pei Liyan, what gives you the right to ddle in my affairs?"
Pei Liyan replied indifferently, "Indeed, I’ve no right to ddle in your affairs, but since it’s ddling, let’s just say I’m idly ddling."
Song Muyu was taken aback.
"Are you going to get in the car willingly, or do I need to have Secretary Si and Special Assistant Fang physically restrain you?" Pei Liyan countered.
"I’ll get in the car myself," Song Muyu went straight into the vehicle.
Pei Liyan drove her to the Song Family’s doorstep, watched her enter the house, waited a mont, and then left.
Pei Mansion, Qingcheng.
Eleven o’clock at night.
Qiao Rui was preparing to pick the lock with a wire when she heard footsteps at the door and quickly stashed the wire away.
Then, there was a knock on the door.
Qiao Rui was stunned and then heard Pei Jibai’s voice outside, "Big sister-in-law, can you hear ?"
"Pei Jibai?" Qiao Rui approached the door and pressed against it, asking, "Is that you?"
"Big sister-in-law, it’s great that you can hear ," Pei Jibai said. "I heard you were locked up by grandmother; haven’t you had a al up to now?"
Qiao Rui hadn’t expected Pei Jibai to be so concerned about her.
She replied, "It’s fine, you shouldn’t get involved in this ss."
"Big sister-in-law, I don’t have the key to the secret room, and I couldn’t co over during the day because there were people outside. Do you want to call the police? I can do that for you," Pei Jibai offered.
"Call the police?" Qiao Rui hadn’t actually considered that Pei Jibai would suggest it.
She quickly said, "Don’t bother calling them. If you call the police this ti, grandmother will just have more tricks waiting next."
"Big sister-in-law, you really do understand my grandmother," Pei Jibai chuckled bitterly, "Indeed, she won’t let things rest easy."
"Right, in that case, we wait," Qiao Rui replied.
"But you haven’t eaten for so long; I’m worried about your health," Pei Jibai said. "And I don’t know when big brother is coming back."
"You don’t need to worry, I’ll be okay, this matter doesn’t concern you," Qiao Rui said softly. "You should go back."
"But big sister-in-law, is there anything I can do for you?" Pei Jibai asked again.
"It’s not necessary, thank you," Qiao Rui was grateful for Pei Jibai’s kindness but knew she didn’t need anyone’s help.
Because help would only make the old lady hate her more and it wouldn’t solve the real problem.
So Qiao Rui didn’t want to implicate anyone.
"Jibai, go back," Qiao Rui said again. "You don’t need to do anything."
Pei Jibai had not yet spoken when a stern voice from outside asked, "Who’s at the secret room’s door?"
Qiao Rui’s heart jumped, thinking, this is bad.
Now she had drawn attention.
"Second young master?" a male voice inquired, "What are you doing here?"
"Do I need to report to you what I’m doing here?" Pei Jibai, already frustrated, naturally sounded displeased.
"The old lady made arrangents for this; if the second young master has any complaints, he should take them up with the old lady."
"Of course, I will do just that," Pei Jibai turned to speak loudly towards the door, "Big sister-in-law, wait for to fight for your interests."
Another voice ordered, "Arrange for two people to guard this door, twenty-four hours a day, no leaving the post!"
Qiao Rui rolled her eyes speechlessly; now that soone was stationed at the door, she wouldn’t be able to go out for food.
