Chapter 68 Punishment Documents

Pei's mother's words naturally went unanswered. Pei Jiuyan closed the door to the ward, but he could still faintly hear his mother scolding him.

Every time she had to deal with paperwork, her mother would become very agitated, and sometimes she would wonder who her real son was.

Assistant Qin had been waiting outside. Upon seeing Pei Jiuyan emerge, he quickly said, "President Pei, the doctors have all been arranged. The two best doctors have been assigned to Madam. They will take turns taking care of Madam's mental health every day."

"In addition, as you requested, Miss Wen has been placed under surveillance. She is causing a great disturbance and keeps demanding to see you."

Hearing this, Pei Jiuyan's expression turned cold: "Let's go."

He also needed to see the clerk.

He investigated what happened today. Although on the surface it seemed that his mother learned about the auction from the nurses' conversation, he knew very well what actually happened.

"Get out of my way, I need to see Brother Jiu."

The clerk looked at the two bodyguards standing at the door, her eyes filled with anger. How dare these people stop her? Besides anger, she was also panicked. She didn't know if Pei Jiuyan had found out something. She had been very discreet. It was indeed she who deliberately revealed it to the nurse, but it wasn't her who asked the nurse to tell Pei's mother.

She's not stupid. Knowing it would lead back to her, why would she do that? She had selected those nurses and knew they were gossipy, so she said it. You can't blame her. Yes, you can't blame her. Pei Jiuyan can't cause trouble even if she wants to.

Thinking of this, she relaxed a little. When Pei Jiuyan arrived, she acted like a victim, looking extremely aggrieved.

“Brother Jiu, I know you’re angry about what happened today, but I can’t stop Godmother when she gets angry. I tried to persuade her, but she insisted on going.”

"Are you done talking?"

Pei Jiuyan looked at her coldly. His reaction was somewhat unexpected. Wenshu rolled her eyes and quickly said, "Don't worry, I will persuade my godmother to accept Zhaozhao later."

"And then what? Get bullied by you again?" Pei Jiuyan's expression was full of sarcasm.

"Brother Jiu, Zhao Zhao has always misunderstood me, but I know myself best. Why would I do that?"

Wen Shu bit her lower lip lightly, looking like she was about to cry. It has to be said that she could indeed arouse people's protective instincts, but that was to others. Pei Jiuyan only felt disgusted by her.

"Documents!"

Pei Jiuyan lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and then said, "There's no one else here. You don't need to do that in front of me."

He knew very well what kind of person the clerk was. In the past, he had tolerated her little tricks only because he wanted Yun Zhaozhao to care more about him.

“I’ll give you two choices! One, get out of the capital and never come back. Two, kneel down in front of Yun Zhaozhao and apologize, saying you were wrong.”

Pei Jiuyan's words startled the document writer so much that he raised his head in shock, losing all composure in his expression.

"Brother Jiu, what are you saying?"

She finally got back, how could she possibly leave again? As for apologizing to Yun Zhaozhao, that's even more impossible.

"I don't want to repeat myself, and also, don't call me Brother Jiu."

Pei Jiuyan said slowly.

The document stared at Pei Jiuyan, his cold demeanor piercing her heart. After a long while, she suddenly said, "Why is that? I was the one who met you first. Moreover, I was there for you during your most difficult time. Back then, when they wanted to take over the Pei family's ancestral home, I cried and begged and was tortured all night to buy you time. When you were being harassed by others before, I was the one who saved you."

“Pei Jiuyan, look carefully, it is me who is by your side, it is me who has helped you through one difficulty after another, it is me, Wenshu, not Yun Zhaozhao.”

The clerk was truly on the verge of a breakdown when he said those words.

She regretted saying it as soon as it left her mouth; these words changed the nature of her relationship with Pei Jiuyan.

Sure enough, Pei Jiuyan's expression shifted, and he looked down at her: "I remember everything you said. I was very grateful at one point, which is why I tolerated you time and time again. Back then, in order to save you, I put Zhaozhao in danger."

This incident became a knot in his heart, one he could never forget for the rest of his life. What's worse, he only found out about it recently.

“Back in the hospital, I told you that I had paid back what I owed you. I sent you abroad so you could have a fresh start, but you took it upon yourself to do those things, and you never even informed me about the things you did before.”

"You know very well what you're thinking."

"Clerk, I've reached my limit in putting up with you."

Wenshu stared blankly at Pei Jiuyan, tears streaming down her face. After crying for a while, she suddenly started laughing again.

"Pei Jiuyan, you're pushing all the blame onto me. How are you any better?"

"You know perfectly well how I feel about you, yet you still keep me by your side. After things have come to this point between you and Yun Zhaozhao, how clean do you think you are?"

Hearing this, Pei Jiuyan did not get angry.

“I know, that’s why I deserve to die even more.”

This is why he didn't take any action at first. In this matter, he was more at fault than anyone else; he was the one who was unforgivable.

He shouldn't have used the document to provoke Zhaozhao; he shouldn't have tested her repeatedly. Feelings can't withstand testing.

Unfortunately, it's too late for him to understand this now.

Pei Jiuyan didn't want to argue with the document any longer, so he said coldly, "Since you're not going to choose, then I'll choose for you. Just pick number one. I don't think Zhao Zhao wants you to appear in front of her either; she'll feel like you're an eyesore."

After saying that, without giving the clerk a chance to speak again, Pei Jiuyan slowly said, "Someone, escort Miss Wen away. Remember to take her to a quiet place and don't let anyone disturb her."

The clerk's eyes showed terror. Pei Jiuyan had risen to become Master Pei in just a few years, relying not only on his immense wealth but also on his ruthless methods. She knew Pei Jiuyan's character; if she left here today, she would never be able to come back.

Making her disappear from this world is the simplest solution; the most terrifying thing is that she will live a life where she can neither live nor die.

The most painful time of her life was those years in the orphanage. She vowed never to become like that again, and she couldn't accept being worse off than she was back then.

"Pei Jiuyan, you can't do this to me. My godmother will be angry if she finds out. No, you can't do this."

Pei Jiuyan seemed not to hear, turning around without even glancing at the document.

The clerk's eyes were filled with terror as he watched the two bodyguards approaching him.

"No, no, don't touch me."

She didn't want to be sent away; she had worked so hard to get to where she was now, and she was unwilling to accept it.

Perhaps driven by the instinct for survival, she bit a bodyguard's hand tightly and, taking advantage of his pain, ran towards the door. But before she could take two steps, a sharp pain shot through her neck, and she slowly collapsed.
