The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot Chapter 320 - 320 320 Pei Familys Ancestral Hall Disturbance
Chapter 320: Chapter 320 Pei Family’s Ancestral Hall Disturbance Chapter 320: Chapter 320 Pei Family’s Ancestral Hall Disturbance “After all, it’s you we’re betting on!”
eting Qingwu’s gaze, which carried a hint of amusent, Pei Jue was slightly startled!
The bet was on him?
“?”
“I have t your father before, on the border line.”
Upon hearing this, Pei Jue slightly furrowed his brow, his gaze falling on Pei Zhengchi, seemingly scrutinizing why he would appear at the border line!
In his mory, ever since his mother passed away, Pei Zhengchi had been wandering the world, completely unconcerned with either the affairs of the Pei Family or those of his brothers.
“I guess, Uncle Pei appeared at the border line to search for clues about that incident involving your mother.”
Pei Jue’s eyes darkened a bit, his look towards Pei Zhengchi changed slightly!
Qingwu continued, “That period was exactly when Deep Sea was most active on the border line, Uncle Pei must have been quietly helping you, doing what you wanted to do.”
The ti Pei Zhengchi was active on the border line was also when Deep Sea was silently growing there!
He is also a mber of the Pei Family, he wouldn’t be unaware that Pei Jue was also on the border line!
Qingwu roughly checked the tiline, looking towards Pei Zhengchi who still maintained a gentle smile.
A person who would recklessly rush into a blasting site to save several children certainly can’t be too bad!
“Uncle Pei said, even if I tell you, you wouldn’t believe that he actually cares about you.”
“I guess, Uncle Pei has also always been concerned about Auntie’s matter, just never told you.”
Pei Jue was sowhat astonished!
He looked at Pei Zhengchi, a hand casually tucked into his pocket, still looking like a rake with a sowhat heavy scent of alcohol, and slightly gray at the temples, having aged.
Pei Zhengchi turned his face away, sowhat uncomfortably!
“Don’t guess wildly, what I have done, has nothing to do with you all!”
“Why not say it?”
“Does an old man like need to report to my son? Just mind your own business!”
Pei Jue’s expression turned sowhat cold.
“Then you needn’t secretly do things you think are good for . Whether it’s Deep Sea or the Pei Clan, I don’t need you ddling in my affairs! And I will investigate mom’s matter on my own, no need for your interference!”
“What I do, is it your concern!”
The atmosphere between father and son grew tense!
Every ti they t, Pei Zhengchi and Pei Jue barely spoke a few words before they would end up in a contentious argunt.
Qingwu gently tugged on Pei Jue’s sleeve.
“Auntie is watching, let’s not argue now.”
The anger in Pei Jue’s body dissipated in an instant the mont Qingwu touched his sleeve, as if the person with the ice-cold gaze just now wasn’t him!
Watching Pei Jue’s reaction, Pei Zhengchi knew this fellow… was probably eting his match in love gas with this girl.
Turning to Qingwu, he lightly chuckled, “The little girl is quite clever, though I thought you would keep those things from Ah Jue.”
After all, Qingwu was also active on the border line before, and Pei Zhengchi thought that a typical girl would avoid bringing up such a past just to keep her loved one from worrying unnecessarily!
Qingwu smiled lightly.
“What I have done is not sothing shaful. Moreover, about my activities on the border line, Ah Jue knows more than you.”
“Are you trying to ease the relationship between and Ah Jue? I’m afraid it’s a futile effort!”
Qingwu shook her head.
“What happens between you and Ah Jue is none of my business, I am not him, nor do I have the right to sympathize with your actions! But just speaking of the bet just now, I won!”
Pei Zhengchi clearly didn’t expect Qingwu to have such a personality.
She was different from any other girl he had t, no wonder Pei Jue was so concerned about her.
Moving decisively with clear logic, his words are sharp without excessive sympathy. Truly worthy of being a child of the Shen Family, he is not disliked.
Pei Zhengchi glanced at the displeased Pei Jue and snorted coldly.
“I heard from your second uncle that you haven’t caught up with that girl yet? With such a sour face, if I were a girl from Shen Family, I wouldn’t want to deal with you either.”
These words don’t sound like sothing a father would say to his younger son.
Pei Jue’s face was expressionless, and his gaze towards Pei Zhengchi was like a dead pool of water.
This father and son, their relationship is extrely poor!
Qingwu finally understood, Pei Zhengchi is a person whose mouth would do more harm than good. Clearly cared about Pei Jue privately, but overtly seed almost afraid of letting Pei Jue think about his kindness.
Really… what an odd person.
Shen Shaojia exclaid, “I used to think that Boss Pei had a twisted personality, but now I realize that my uncle’s character is truly twisted.”
Compared to Pei Zhengchi, Pei Jue’s character is practically cheerful!
After saying this, Pei Zhengchi moved forward, whispering with Elder Pei, his entire being seeming rather detached.
It seems that everything about the Pei Family has nothing to do with him!
His appearance here today was simply because of the person in the morial hall, for his late lover, that Pei Zhengchi returned to this cold ho.
After today, he will still have nothing to do with the Pei Family!
A young man in a suit approached Qingwu, holding several exquisite boxes in his hands.
“I am A Jue’s older brother, Pei Lang. This is a gift for eting Sister Shaojia, and this is for the future sister-in-law.”
“This one is from , and the other is from A Jue’s second brother, please accept them!”
Having accepted the boxes from Pei Lang, Qingwu thanked him and upon opening, realized he had given them two identical jade carvings!
Both jade carvings were vividly sculpted.
Shen Shaojia exclaid, “Why do they look very much like Mr. Yu Lan’s technique?”
Pei Lang smiled warmly, “I carved them myself. My idol is the master jade carver Mr. Yu Lan. It’s inevitable that my style would sowhat resemble his.”
“Sorry, I’m just soone who likes to dabble in hobbies.”
Qingwu did not expect that Pei Jue’s second brother would have such a personality!
From the carvings alone, one could see that Pei Lang is a person who is quiet and restrained but suppresses all his emotions!
Shen Shaojia quickly shook her head.
“No no, Qingwu and I accept them, thank you, big brother.”
Being the oldest among the younger generation in the Pei Family, it was fitting for Shen Shaojia to call him big brother.
He nodded slightly, then looked towards Pei Jue.
“Don’t take to heart what dad said just now.”
Pei Jue remained expressionless.
“My heart isn’t broad enough to accommodate so much idle talk.”
If he really took what Pei Zhengchi said to heart, he would probably have been infuriated to death by now!
Noises ca from outside the morial hall.
“I say, Elder Pei, it’s such a big day today, how co you didn’t invite us over?”
Several cars stopped outside the old Pei Family house, and a few middle-aged n, followed by others, got out. Elder Pei Liu stood at the back, his smile sinister as he looked at the Pei Family mbers!
Elder Pei said coldly, “Today is a family matter, you are not welco, please leave!”
“Elder Pei, you shouldn’t put it that way. After all, it’s Pei Family’s daughter-in-law holding the ritual, we are also Pei Family people, so why can’t we co?”
“Besides, you also have outsiders here, don’t you?”
Leading the group, Pei San scrutinized everyone present, finally landing his gaze on Qingwu and Shen Shaojia!
“I don’t rember when Miss Shen beca related to the Pei Family!”
