Chapter 88 Walking Alone

Seeing that it was almost time, Yun Zhaozhao prepared to take Pei Xiaobao back. When she went in, Assistant Qin's mouth was dry from talking, and he could only catch his breath when he saw Yun Zhaozhao come in.

"How about it?"

She asked it casually.

Before Assistant Qin could speak, Pei Jiuyan replied first, "Zhaozhao, I've remembered it all. You can test me."

Yun Zhaozhao glanced at Assistant Qin, who nodded: "President Pei has remembered them all for now. I plan to tell him a little bit every day, otherwise there will be too much information and he might not be able to remember it all."

The current situation is already very good, exceeding his expectations. Who would have thought that just a second ago President Pei couldn't even remember him, but now he can remember dozens of people, including his relationship with those people and some background information about them.

He couldn't help but sigh that their CEO Pei was a hopeless romantic; the moment he heard that his wife was in danger, everything else fell into his lap.

"I'm going back now."

As Yun Zhaozhao was about to leave for Pei Xiaobao, Pei Jiuyan looked reluctant. He didn't say anything, but just looked at Yun Zhaozhao with those pitiful eyes, as if she were the most indifferent person in the world.

"Pei Jiuyan, that's enough. If you keep this up, I'm not coming tomorrow."

Yun Zhaozhao said fiercely, telling herself that she couldn't be soft-hearted. Pei Jiuyan was always the kind of person who would take advantage of a situation, and she couldn't let him get away with it.

Pei Jiuyan's expression immediately changed, and he instantly transformed into a sensible and obedient child.

"Zhaozhao, no, I'll listen to you. Come early tomorrow."

Yun Zhaozhao had countless urges to curse, but she could only suppress them. She gave Assistant Qin a wink, and Assistant Qin understood and invited two secretaries in to introduce the company to Pei Jiuyan, while he saw Yun Zhaozhao out.

"Where are the documents?"

Yun Zhaozhao had been looking for someone to serve Pei Jiuyan, and that's when she realized that she hadn't seen Shuwen jumping around in front of her for a long time.

Upon hearing Yun Zhaozhao mention documents, Assistant Qin's expression became somewhat subtle: "Madam, I'm not sure about that."

Yun Zhaozhao noticed the change in his expression and said sarcastically, "You're just as dishonest as your master."

Assistant Qin gave an awkward smile but didn't reply.

"Have the clerk come and serve me; I'm too lazy to come."

Assistant Qin immediately became anxious upon hearing this: "Madam, I'm afraid this won't work."

"President Pei doesn't remember Miss Wen at all."

"Just talk to him, and he'll know. Aren't you the one who knows best about their messy affairs?"

Assistant Qin, as her special assistant, knew much more about when and why they met than she did.

Assistant Qin knew that Yun Zhaozhao was taking her anger out on him, but there was nothing he could do. He could only say tactfully, "Madam, Miss Wen really can't come. Even if she wanted to, she probably couldn't."

Although he wasn't there that night, when he looked for Pei Jiuyan, he had already learned about what happened that night from another group of people.

The clerk is probably in the hospital herself right now, how could she possibly come to take care of President Pei? Besides, she probably wants to kill President Pei right now, how could she possibly come?

Understanding the implication in Assistant Qin's words, Yun Zhaozhao pressed for details: "What exactly happened?"

Assistant Qin tried to brush it off again, but Yun Zhaozhao said, "Assistant Qin, I advise you to think carefully before you speak."

If Pei Jiuyan's life continues like this, his master will probably have to be replaced in the future.

Assistant Qin clearly understood, and finally said with a forced smile, "Previously, President Pei wanted to send Miss Wen away, but Miss Wen refused and ran away halfway, causing President Pei a lot of trouble. Last time when Pei Xiaobao ran away from the foster home, it was President Pei who dealt with the trouble."

He spoke vaguely, making no mention whatsoever of the clerk nearly dying on New Year's Eve.

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhaozhao sneered: "Here we go again. Which country are you planning to send her to this time?"

Assistant Qin said in a low voice, "It's a mountainous area, not abroad."

What are you going to do in the mountains?

After Yun Zhaozhao finished speaking, she suddenly realized something and looked at Assistant Qin. Assistant Qin quickly looked away, looking at the sky and the ground, refusing to look at her.

His actions made Yun Zhaozhao realize that her guess was correct. Pei Jiuyan had no intention of letting Wenshu live a good life. She had never realized Pei Jiuyan's ruthlessness so clearly.

“Madam, Mr. Pei has always wanted you to know these things.”

Assistant Qin said softly.

"He's quite the actor."

After Yun Zhaozhao finished speaking, she picked up Pei Xiaobao and left.

On the bus, she was reflecting on herself. These past two days, Pei Jiuyan had been sick and her personality had changed. She had been somewhat deceived and had forgotten what a terrible person he was.

"You absolutely mustn't do that again," Yun Zhaozhao thought to herself, patting Pei Xiaobao's head as a silent reminder.

As a result, Pei Jiuyan noticed that Yun Zhaozhao was becoming increasingly indifferent each day, spending less and less time with him, and when she said she came to see him, it seemed more like she was just going through the motions.

His initial anticipation turned into later panic.

As the seventh day approached, Yun Zhaozhao, unusually, found a chair and sat down instead of just showing her face and leaving.

“Pei Jiuyan, Assistant Qin has talked to you a lot these past few days, and you should understand our relationship now.”

"Now, let's change our clothes and go out."

"I don't want to."

After falling ill, Pei Jiuyan rejected Yun Zhaozhao for the first time. He didn't even look at Yun Zhaozhao anymore, but instead covered his head with the blanket, as if Yun Zhaozhao couldn't see him that way.

"Pei Jiuyan!"

Yun Zhaozhao raised her voice: "The thirty-day cooling-off period is over, we should go and complete the formalities."

Her words received no response, and Yun Zhaozhao grew impatient. "Pei Jiuyan, I'm saying this one last time..."

Before she could finish speaking, Pei Jiuyan suddenly threw off the covers and sat on the bed: "You're threatening me again. You always threaten me, Zhao Zhao. You weren't like this before."

Pei Jiuyan looked extremely aggrieved and helpless.

Yun Zhaozhao hardened her heart and said, "Those are all your imaginations. In reality, we have long since parted ways and gone our separate ways."

"No, that's impossible. I don't believe you."

Pei Jiuyan became somewhat agitated: "You all keep saying I'm sick, but it's my own body, only I know whether I'm sick or not."

"I don't believe any of that talk of parting ways amicably or going our separate ways. I love you so much, how could I possibly bear to part ways with you?"

Pei Jiuyan's words left Yun Zhaozhao silent for a long time. Finally, she said in a low voice, "But that's the truth. I never thought we would come to this."

Back then, she was determined to spend her life with Pei Jiuyan, and now things have turned out this way, which she finds quite helpless.

"Pei Jiuyan, from now on, you will walk your own path alone."
