Chapter 1026: Chapter 1026: Group Fight, Tianqi Research Institute Never Admits Defeat
Han Wang thought this was indeed sothing Pei Ya would do; for a mont, he didn’t know whether to feel speechless or laugh.
“He’s always been quite strong, no need to worry about him.” Qiao Yun reassured Han Wang.
Han Wang hurriedly denied, “I’m not worried about him.”
Qiao Yun let out an “Oh”: “Really?”
Han Wang: “…”
Why did it feel like Professor Qiao’s words had an underlying aning? Was she mocking him?
An illusion.
It must be an illusion.
At this mont, upstairs—
Pei Ya was gloomily scrolling through his phone, forcing himself not to think about what today represented. Just then, his phone pushed a piece of news.
It was none other than the headline about Han Wang’s engagent with Nolan today.
Words like “century engagent ceremony,” “a match made in heaven,” “perfect couple,” and various praises envying this alliance made Pei Ya’s eyes burn red.
Red with anger.
He cursed under his breath, flinging his phone onto the bed before sprawling out in a large X-shape on the mattress.
Frowning, he stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.
After a while, Pei Ya abruptly sat up, his eyes gradually growing resolute.
Thus, when Qiao Yun finished her phone call with Han Wang and went upstairs to see Pei Ya, she found his door wide open.
She paused in surprise and pushed open the door to enter.
The room no longer had any trace of Pei Ya.
Qiao Yun blinked her eyes and peeked into the bathroom.
Good. No impulsive actions like slitting his wrists in despair.
But where did he go?
Unable to figure it out, Qiao Yun went downstairs and asked Li Hanzhou, “Where’s Pei Ya?”
Li Hanzhou sat on the couch, a playful smirk tugging at his lips. “He just left.”
Qiao Yun looked puzzled: “Huh?”
Li Hanzhou drawled lazily, “He said he was going to ‘snatch soone.'”
At those words, Qiao Yun wasn’t angry. Instead, her eyes sparkled with admiration.
That’s just Pei Ya through and through.
His self-healing speed was impressively fast.
But this was the Pei Ya she knew—never giving up easily in the face of setbacks.
Collecting her thoughts, Qiao Yun turned and strode toward the door.
Li Hanzhou asked, “Where are you going?”
Qiao Yun puffed up her small fra and replied righteously: “It’s dangerous for him to go alone. I’m going to back him up.”
Li Hanzhou: “…”
Well, she wasn’t wrong.
After all, they’d be on soone else’s turf.
Though the Herbert Family had declined, a starved cal was still bigger than a horse, especially paired with the Andrew Family.
Pei Ya charging over on raw courage, even if he were Shengqiao’s president, interrupting the engagent—it’s unlikely those two families would let him go easily.
Seeing Qiao Yun’s resolute expression, Li Hanzhou stood up. “I’ll go with you.”
Qiao Yun didn’t refuse: “Alright.”
Simultaneously, Li Hanzhou picked up his phone to make a call.
Qiao Yun looked at him.
Li Hanzhou reasoned, “Fighting naturally calls for reinforcents.”
Qiao Yun thought it over and, finding it very logical, took out her own phone as well.
Li Hanzhou: “Hmm?”
Qiao Yun said seriously, “In a group fight, you need to call more people.”
Li Hanzhou: “…”
Are they really planning to fight?
Qiao Yun, with a solemn face: Tianqi Research Institute never backs down.
…
The Herbert Family’s engagent with the Andrew Family had caused quite a stir locally.
It was as though the Herbert Family feared Han Wang might regret it afterward—they specifically invited dia outlets to attend the engagent ceremony, planning to report it extensively. They even brought in two hosts for live coverage.
The Andrew Family raised no objections.
Andrew had ulterior motives; he intended to use this opportunity to publicly announce that Nolan was marrying a woman from the Tianqi Research Institute, thereby adding further prestige to the Andrew Family.
Nolan marrying soone from Tianqi Research Institute—how many people would envy the Andrew Family?
With this thought, Andrew brimd with excitent.
Even Han Wang had no objections and was happy with the arrangent—the more dia they invited, the better it was for her.
Nolan wholeheartedly endorsed it too. Having suffered humiliation at Han Wang’s hands, he planned to give her a small lesson in public.
To make Han Wang realize that as a woman, she was born to obey her husband.
