Chapter 786: Gratitude and enmity
Chapter 786: Gratitude and enmity
His body shook as he cried, and his breathing became rapid again.
Father Mu and Yang Kai next to her helped her in time.
There was an uproar in the office until someone called an ambulance.
When he left, Mu's father was still scolding him heartbreakingly, "Pei Yanzhou, you have no conscience. It's in vain that your aunt was so kind to you in the past..."
The sound of crying and cursing gradually faded away.
Pei Yanzhou sat on the leather seat and lit a cigarette, his face full of sourness.
No wonder people say that Shengmi's kindness is against his hatred. He thought that he was extremely loyal to Mu Jiaren, but in the end because he didn't want to marry Mu Ruoqi, he was scolded as selfish.
If he was selfish towards the Mu family, would he have such trouble with Cheng Xi?
Ten minutes later, Yang Kai came up and said, "Mr. Pei, I put the person in the ambulance."
"Ah."
Pei Yanzhou asked bleakly: "How was Mother Mu's situation when she got in the car?"
"It's so easy to die." Yang Kai muttered softly.
"What did you say?" Pei Yanzhou's handsome face sank slightly.
"Ah, it's nothing." Yang Kai quickly scratched his neck, "Mr. Pei, don't you... go to the hospital?"
"Didn't you say it's not that easy to die?" Pei Yanzhou said calmly.
Yang Kai: "..."
He was so flustered that he wanted to crawl into the cracks in the ground, "Yes... I'm sorry..."
Pei Yanzhou rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Understood. I've fainted a lot, so maybe I'm getting used to it."
"..."
Yang Kai's pupils were shaking.
I didn't expect such words to come out of Mr. Pei's mouth.
However, Yang Kai actually didn't dislike Mu Mu that much before. When he first met Mu Mu, he thought Mu Mu had a good temper and was the kind of person who was honest and willing to work hard without any regrets.
Only now do I realize that such people are quite terrifying.
They are too good at using tears to play themselves into pitiable people to gain sympathy from others.
"Mr. Pei, when we sent them downstairs just now, Mu's father kept howling and crying. Now it is estimated that... everyone in the company knows that they raised you and Mu's mother left in a coma. I'm afraid everyone has no regard for you. The image... will have an impact." Yang Kai said hesitantly.
"whatever."
Pei Yanzhou said calmly, "I am the one who provides them with food and clothing. If you are not satisfied, you can leave."
Yang Kai looked surprised.
"Are you surprised?"
Pei Yanzhou looked at his expression, took a puff of cigarette and said suddenly, "Yang Kai, I haven't felt so relaxed and relieved in a long time."
I don't know since when, he no longer felt warm when he came into contact with people from the Mu family.
Every time it feels like a stone is pressing on my chest, extremely depressing.
Now it seems like the stone has finally been moved away.
"Mr. Pei, you have done your best," Yang Kai said.
Pei Yanzhou nodded, "Tell Assistant Jiang that if someone from the Mu family contacts him in the future, he doesn't need to pay any more attention."
Yang Kai sighed inwardly and suddenly wanted to complain to his girlfriend. If his boss had made this determination earlier, he wouldn't be alone again.
After Yang Kai left, Pei Yanzhou called a friend in Hong Kong City and asked, "Help me check something out..."
"We're not going to investigate the Zhan family's affairs in Hong Kong City again." My friend chuckled.
"Yes."
The friend said: "I recently received news that Zhan Yue, the young master of the Zhan family, seems to be getting married. The person he is marrying seems to be a woman from a very ordinary family in the mainland. This woman... will not have anything to do with you."
"You guessed it right, she is my girlfriend." Pei Yanzhou smiled bitterly.
The friend gloated, "Oh, it's your precious ex-girlfriend."
"...She's a girlfriend, not an ex-girlfriend." Pei Yanzhou gritted his teeth.
The friend laughed and said, "I never thought you would fall into the hands of a woman. Okay, what do you want me to check?"
"Zhan Yue wants to get married. He must sign a prenuptial agreement before marriage. Please help me find a way to check."
Pei Yanzhou whispered, "Cheng Xi will agree to marry Zhan Yue. Zhan Yue must have made an offer that is hard to refuse. Zhan Yue will definitely write it in the agreement."
"This matter is not easy to handle." The friend said in an awkward tone, "Zhan Yue must be looking for his most trusted personal secretary. I'm afraid Zhan's family will not even think of finding out."
"I believe you."
Pei Yanzhou smiled and said, "When it's done, the winery in Australia will give it to you."
"Haha, you still understand me and know what I like. I really can't refuse such a generous offer. Okay, I'll think of a way for you."
……
The Dragon Boat Festival is here in a blink of an eye.
Pei Feiyue, who originally planned to come to the film and television city for a guest appearance and travel, suddenly canceled the trip, saying that something had happened and she had to go out of town.
Cheng Xi didn't take it to heart.
She didn't have time to go back to Sioux City during the Dragon Boat Festival, and she was afraid that Fang Qiu would be bored, so she simply asked Tao Mufan to drive and bring Fang Qiu here to celebrate the festival.
Cheng Xi took Fang Qiu on a tour of the major film and television cities here.
"This place is really like the Forbidden City." Fang Qiu sighed while taking pictures, "It's a festival, and there are people everywhere."
“People nowadays like to travel during the holidays.”
Cheng Xi introduced the scenic spots to her mother, "That's the Imperial Palace over there. There seems to be a scene being filmed there today, so you can't go in."
"Oh." Fang Qiu nodded, still looking inside curiously.
Cheng Xi also took a look. The drama she is investing in now is a modern drama. There have been relatively few people here recently, and she didn't notice which drama was being filmed there.
Until I saw a somewhat familiar figure hurriedly walked in with his clothes in his arms.
It's Zhang Dan.
Could this drama be the resources that Pei Yanzhou gave Zhang Dan after she testified for herself?
Cheng Xi's thoughts moved slightly.
After shopping until dark, Cheng Xi took Fang Qiu to a restaurant where she usually went for dinner.
This store is a bit expensive and not many people come here.
Fang Qiu sighed while eating, "This fish is delicious, but it's too expensive. A dish costs more than 200 yuan. A meal in Sioux City only costs a few dozen yuan."
"Mom, it's not like you don't have money. I can make money myself. It doesn't matter if I have a few good meals now and then."
Cheng Xi smiled and put some food for her, "Eat more if you like."
"Yes, we all have money now."
Fang Qiu said, "Recalling the experience of the past two years is like a dream."
Cheng Xi was silent, wasn't it like a dream? She was even going to marry Zhan Yue, but she hadn't had a chance to tell Fang Qiu yet.
After eating, it started to rain outside.
Cheng Xi didn't bring an umbrella or drive, so she thought she'd just wait until the rain stopped.
"Look, are there people arguing outside?" Fang Qiu suddenly pointed to the floor-to-ceiling window behind him and said.
Cheng Xi turned around and saw that in the dark rainy night, a slightly fat woman was chasing a woman and slapping her. The woman who was beaten was hiding behind a bald middle-aged man.
This is probably a scene where the wife teaches the mistress a lesson.
Anyway, with nothing to do, Cheng Xi looked at it for a while and suddenly felt that the woman being chased and beaten looked a little familiar.
Like... Zhang Dan.
