Chapter 17 The Merchant's Bewitching Scheme: Does Miss Pei Like to Look at This Side of Me?

"What kind of bean?"

Pei Jinwu was only focused on the food and didn't hear what Tang Yuan said.

"A national idol, a popular young actor who excels in film, television, and music, and a wealthy film emperor."

When her idol was mentioned, Tang Yuan stopped eating. "Jin Wu, you don't even know him?!"

"have no idea."

Pei Jinwu took a sip of water, her voice casual.

She spent most of her time living with her grandfather in a Taoist temple, and when she returned to the capital, she would go to places like laboratories.

I haven't paid attention to anything else.

"Let me show you."

Tang Yuan quickly took out her phone, opened Weibo, and found Jiang Jibai's account.

The pinned post is a photo of him.

"Imagiri, doesn't she really look a bit like you?"

"..."

Looking at the young, handsome, yet expressionless man in the photo, Pei Jinwu's fingers suddenly clenched around the fork, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Tsk.

They do look somewhat alike.

——

Meng Jiao.

Pei Jinwu helped Pei Shu's mother pack her luggage.

The house in the city center is being renovated and is currently undergoing final decoration and ventilation.

In another week, they will be able to move there.

"Auntie..."

Pei Jinwu put her luggage in the corner, and thinking of the man she had seen online, she pursed her red lips and asked, "When you saved me, did you see my family?"

"ah?"

Pei Shu stopped moving, her smile gradually fading, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes: "Wuwu, you..."

"Auntie, I knew it from the beginning."

Pei Jinwu looked up and smiled, her delicate, fair face glowing with gentleness under the lamplight.

She had thought that after her grandfather passed away, she would be alone in the capital.

She was very grateful for the appearance of her aunt and Jianjian.

"I have indeed met your family."

Pei Shu wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with red eyes, "I was on a fishing boat when your parents' ship sank."

"Your family braved the torrential rain and did everything in their power to get you onto my small boat, entrusting me with the care of you, but..."

Pei Shu became increasingly distressed as she spoke, her voice trembling with tears, overwhelmed with guilt.

"It's all in the past."

Pei Jinwu patted Pei Shu's hand to comfort her.

"The rain was too heavy, I couldn't see your parents' faces clearly, but I saw that there were several children next to them."

"The three boys were about the same height and looked to be around ten years old."

Around ten years old?

Pei Jinwu blinked, recalling Jiang Jibai's information.

He is twenty-eight years old this year, which is about ten years older than her.

"As for the others..." It had been too long, and Pei Shu had difficulty recalling them. "Yes, there was my sister too. The scene was too chaotic, so I really can't remember how many there were."

If Wuwu's family were all alive, no one would dare to bully her.

How could such a good child have lost his family and everything?

"I see."

After getting the information, Pei Jinwu gently comforted Pei Shu, "No matter what, you will always be my family."

"Uh-huh."

Pei Shu was deeply moved and made up her mind to work hard to earn money so that she could raise Jianjian and Wuwu together.

I will never let my two children suffer again.

——

After moving her things, Pei Jinwu returned to her room.

Turn on your phone.

Search: [Jiang Jibai]

The information only includes height, weight, and acting experience.

Apart from that, there was no other useful information.

Exiting the search page, Pei Jinwu opened Lou Ying's WeChat: 【Check this person】

Image: Jiang Jibai.jpg

Who's that pretty boy? He's actually quite handsome!

Lou Ying, on the verge of death, was jolted awake from his dream, all sleepiness gone.

Pei Jinwu: [Check first]

Louying: [Walking]

She didn't say anything, and Lou Ying didn't ask any further questions.

When I put my phone down, I saw the red icon below.

S: Are you asleep?

Pei Jinwu glanced at the time.

7:30.

Who goes to bed at 7:30 p.m.?

Something's wrong!

Pei Jinwu glanced at it indifferently, threw her phone on the bedside table, and took her clothes to the bathroom.

After taking a shower.

Wen Jianjian then kept pestering me to submit a few more questions.

Around 10 o'clock.

Pei Jinwu lay down on the bed and looked at the yellowish ceiling.

I can't fall asleep with my eyes closed.

After tossing and turning for a few minutes, she found the candy that Shang Shiyan had given her by the bedside.

After eating one, I felt completely calm.

late at night.

Pei Jinwu was dreaming.

In my dream.

Shang Shiyan stood in front of her, his deep, dark eyes fixed on her, his beautiful fingertips slowly unbuttoning his shirt.

"Does Miss Pei enjoy looking at this?"

The buttons were undone, revealing a fair and muscular chest, strong and handsome, with clearly defined abdominal muscles.

Below that is a sexy V-line...

Further down...

"Didn't you see it clearly?"

The man's thin lips curled into a smile, exuding a seductive and alluring aura that seemed to draw the person opposite him into his body: "This time, Miss Pei will have a good look!"

"..."

As the man drew closer, Pei Jinwu recalled Lou Ying's words.

"He's not good at that."

The next second.

Pei Jinwu was startled awake and sat on the edge of the bed, feeling her cheeks slightly flushed.

Why would she dream about Shang Shiyan?

It must be because this man appears in front of her too often.

Definitely.

——

On the other side of the city.

In a luxurious and quiet private room.

The man's tall figure was nestled in the booth, his long legs naturally crossed.

His right hand casually rested on the armrest, while his left hand swirled a glass of red wine. His thin lips were pursed, and his eyes were fixed on the WeChat page.

Three hours passed in total.

There has been no response to the WeChat message he sent.

It's obvious.

The girl didn't want to talk to him.

"The wind has stopped."

Shang Shiyan frowned slightly, his casual tone revealing a hint of doting and indulgence: "Send someone to Nanzhou to buy some mango candy."

"Have a private plane deliver it before noon tomorrow."

"yes."

Feng Zhi went from being surprised at the beginning to being calm now.

In his pursuit of Miss Pei, he might do even more outrageous things.

He needs to maintain a calm and composed mindset.

Fine.

"What kind of candy requires a private jet?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.

Jiang Jibai walked in, wearing a windbreaker and a mask.

The man took off his hat, tossed it casually onto the sofa, rolled up his sleeves, picked up his wine glass, took two gulps, and asked in confusion:

“I remember you didn’t hate mango candy?”

"There's a little girl who likes to eat it."

The man narrowed his eyes, a gentle smile playing on his lips, a casualness that concealed indulgence and pampering.

Little girl?

Jiang Jibai sensed something amiss and asked with a playful tone, "Could it be that you're going against the old lady because of her?"

I heard that a few days ago...

An old lady picked up a "miracle doctor girl" on the street and took her home. She liked her very much and insisted that the girl be her granddaughter-in-law.

Shang Shiyan deliberately avoided people, which angered the old lady so much that she threatened to sever her relationship with him.

Jiang Jibai was quite surprised.

He knew how filial Shang Shiyan was.

I used to dislike blind dates and let the old lady do whatever she wanted.

this time--

That's really strange!

"What kind of girl could make the president of the prestigious Shang Group fall in love?"

Jiang Jibai, holding his wine glass, gestured with his chin: "Do you have photos? Let me see!"

There will be another update tonight.
