Chapter 75 The Financial Backer of the Documents

Once the matter here was resolved, Pei Jiuyan immediately returned to the capital. Only after getting off the plane did he learn that Pei Xiaobao had almost run away.

"It must have run off on purpose, trying to find the lady."

Assistant Qin sighed with admiration. Everyone says dogs are intelligent and perceptive, and he truly experienced it this time.

"Where's Pei Xiaobao? Wasn't he kicked out?"

"Yes, the people at the daycare said that the madam personally handled the procedures and took Pei Xiaobao away, along with his belongings."

These words brought a rare smile to Pei Jiuyan's face; the little princess was just that soft-hearted.

"Go to Madam's."

The car had only been moving for a short while when Pei Jiuyan changed her mind again: "Forget it, let's wait a few days."

Yun Zhaozhao definitely didn't want to see him, and he needed to calm down a bit more. He was afraid of seeing the look of disgust in Yun Zhaozhao's eyes.

"Have you found the documents?"

Pei Jiuyan asked.

"Found her, but she's currently being protected by that person, so it's very difficult to get close to her."

Assistant Qin said with concern, "President Pei, that person seems very angry this time. Several departments have been causing us trouble these past few days."

Even this recent incident abroad was orchestrated by that person.

Pei Jiuyan replied, "I will handle it."

He had already anticipated this when he made his move against the document. The document was the same kind of person as him—dark and gloomy. This was one of the reasons why he had always compromised before. He wasn't worried about what the document would do to him, but he was worried about what the document would do to Yun Zhaozhao.

He didn't want to see Yun Zhaozhao suffer any harm, but in the end, he was the one who hurt Yun Zhaozhao the most.

Yun Zhaozhao was unaware that Pei Jiuyan had returned. With only two days left until the New Year, she had paused her work and spent the last two days taking Pei Xiaobao to visit his maternal grandfather.

As soon as Grandpa saw Pei Xiaobao, he expressed his dislike: "Why did you raise such an ugly dog?"

Pei Xiaobao seemed to understand his grandfather's words, because the once energetic dog suddenly became listless. It took Yun Zhaozhao a while to coax him back to his usual vitality.

"Grandpa, don't say that to it, it understands."

Seeing that Yun Zhaozhao truly liked it, Grandpa Huang didn't say anything more; nothing could compare to his granddaughter's affection.

And after looking at this dog for a while, it's actually kind of cute, kind of silly and adorable.

"What's your name?"

"Old Master Huang asked."

"Hmm... call him Xiaobao."

Yun Zhaozhao concealed her surname, but in fact she was already preparing to change Pei Xiaobao's surname. Yun Xiaobao sounds much better than Pei Xiaobao.

This year, it was just the grandfather and grandson celebrating the New Year, but they still made it lively. Grandpa Huang's villa was decorated well in advance, and he also bought a lot of fireworks and firecrackers.

"Grandpa will take you outside to put it down then."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Yun Zhaozhao's eyes stung a little. Her grandfather had never liked these things, and she knew it was all for her sake.

The grandmother and grandson were discussing New Year's arrangements when a servant came to announce that Pei Jiuyan had arrived.

Old Master Huang's face darkened instantly: "He still has the nerve to come here? Tell him to get lost."

"Grandpa, I'll go talk to him."

Seeing that her grandfather disagreed, she could only say, "He's not so easy to please."

Moreover, she was in the wrong this time; the other person's dog was still there.

As soon as Yun Zhaozhao went out, she saw Pei Jiuyan standing at the door with large bags and small packages, looking at her expectantly. It was hard to believe that he was a ruthless person.

But that's just the kind of person he is; he's cunning and scheming.

"Pei Jiuyan, can't you just let me have a proper New Year?"

Yun Zhaozhao's words struck a nerve with Pei Jiuyan, but fortunately Pei Jiuyan was prepared. He quickly said, "I'm here to bring things for Pei Xiaobao. It's the New Year, so I should buy the child some new clothes, toys, and treats."

Upon closer inspection, Yun Zhaozhao realized that Pei Jiuyan was carrying pet supplies.

This time he was smarter. He knew that even if he brought the elixir, Yun Zhaozhao and Old Master Huang would not accept it. So, he started with Pei Xiaobao. Unfortunately, Yun Zhaozhao couldn't refuse, since she was Pei Xiaobao's legal guardian.

Having discerned his thoughts, Yun Zhaozhao's expression darkened further. She tried to take it with a sullen face, but Pei Jiuyan avoided her.

"I'll bring it to your door later. It's too heavy for you to unscrew."

Yun Zhaozhao raised her eyelids and glanced at him. Is this guy not even pretending anymore?

Pei Jiuyan smiled but didn't say anything. Now that Yun Zhaozhao knew his true colors, he wasn't going to pretend anymore. He would just tell Yun Zhaozhao frankly, "I was just being cunning with you."

Yun Zhaozhao was speechless at Pei Jiuyan's shamelessness.

"The goods have been delivered, now get out of here."

"good."

"Get out now."

Pei Jiuyan quickly carried the things to the door and put them down. Then, he tried to look inside through the window. When he saw Yun Zhaozhao looking over, he quickly said, "I just want to see Pei Xiaobao."

"Pei Jiuyan, don't try that on me."

Yun Zhaozhao wasn't fooled: "Let's talk after the New Year."

The previous discussions have been largely completed; now the only remaining issue is the custody of Pei Xiaobao.

As for why not now, it's because she wants to have a good New Year. Her grandfather is rarely coming back this year, and she wants to be happy.

Pei Jiuyan very sensibly agreed.

The items had been delivered, and there was no longer any excuse to stay. He quickly said, "Zhaozhao, I'll be going now. Call me if you need anything."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a dog barked urgently. Before Yun Zhaozhao could react, Pei Xiaobao rushed into the house.

The two had been talking outside the courtyard earlier, their voices were not loud, and with the wind and snow, Pei Xiaobao hadn't heard Pei Jiuyan's voice. This time, however, Pei Xiaobao naturally heard Pei Jiuyan speaking at the door, and then excitedly ran out to find his father.

"Xiao Bao, let Daddy take a good look."

Pei Jiuyan was also very happy to see Pei Xiaobao. He picked up Pei Xiaobao, who was wandering around him, and didn't care at all that Pei Xiaobao's fur was sticking to his black coat.

"Xiao Bao has gotten chubby and handsome. Isn't he especially happy to be with his mom?"

Pei Xiaobao wasn't sure if he really understood, but he responded with "woof woof woof".

What a beautiful scene of fatherly love and filial piety! Yun Zhaozhao couldn't bear to look and turned to leave. She heard Pei Jiuyan say behind her, "Quick, Xiaobao, follow Mom. Dad has been kicked out of the house. You might not be able to be kicked out. Our family is counting on you. You have to hold the line."

Yun Zhaozhao, unable to bear it any longer, stopped and turned around to yell, "Pei Jiuyan, are you sick in the head?"

As she spoke, she snatched Pei Xiaobao from Pei Jiuyan's hands and went inside.

Children should not be given to people with warped values; they will be led astray sooner or later.

Carrying the dog inside, Yun Zhaozhao saw her grandfather standing there, and she instantly felt guilty: "Grandpa..."

Grandpa Huang looked at Yun Zhaozhao, then at the dog in her arms, his expression somewhat complicated.

"This dog..."
