Madam Pei raised an eyebrow.

"What, I've already agreed to compensate you, so there's probably something shady going on in your room, isn't there?"

Ye Ningwan smiled, her smile as docile as a cunning kitten.

"How could that be? Of course I welcome my sister-in-law to come and check on me anytime. But since things have already escalated to this point, why don't you just wait for Dad to come over and investigate together? That way, we can avoid any misunderstandings later."

Madam Pei suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Before she could react, she heard Ye Ningwan chuckle softly, as if she were talking to herself, or perhaps to Madam Pei.

"Look, here it is!"

As she spoke, Ye Ningwan had already run over quickly.

"Dad, Ninth Master, you've finally arrived! If you hadn't come, I would have been bullied to death!"

Madam Pei and Pei Minghao turned around at the same time, only to see Old Master Pei standing behind them with a cold face, leaning on his cane. The person sitting in the wheelchair behind them was none other than Pei Fengzhi, who should have been locked up in the solitary confinement room.

Madam Pei felt a chill run down her spine and quickly went up to try to explain.

"Dad, it's not what you think, please let me explain..."

Old Master Pei raised his hand, his dignified and stern face bearing the marks of severity.

Thump!

He raised his cane and then brought it down heavily, revealing his extreme anger at that moment.

"What's there to explain? Instead of sleeping this early in the morning, you brought people to surround your own brother and sister-in-law's door. What are you really up to!"

Madam Pei gritted her teeth, about to speak, when Pei Minghao, who couldn't bear to see his mother being scolded, immediately started shouting without regard for the consequences.

"Grandpa, you've misunderstood Mom! She came to catch her husband cheating! I just got back this morning and saw a man peering over the wall outside Ye Ningwan's balcony. When he realized someone was outside, he quickly climbed back inside!"

Snap!

A loud slap rang out, landing hard on Pei Minghao's face and cutting him off from what he was about to say.
