(289) Within one's power



If Jing Pei could lie to others in this world, then he would never lie to Jing Pei.

Moreover, even if he didn't tell Hong Baobao about this, it's unlikely he could keep it from her for long.

The reason Jing Pei didn't tell Hong Baobao about this right away was because he was worried that Hong Baobao would dislike him because of it.

Now that Hong Baobao has asked, he naturally has to tell her.

With that in mind, Jing Pei had someone investigate Chen Qiu and spread all of Chen Qiu's dirty secrets.

After listening to what Jing Pei said, Hong Baobao couldn't help but nod.

No wonder Chen Qiu suddenly came to find me; it turns out that some negative information about her suddenly appeared online.

In truth, it was Chen Qiu's own guilty conscience that led her to believe that she was the one who posted the negative information about Chen Qiu online, and that the people coming to settle scores with her.

That's what they say, but in reality, Chen Qiu's guess was pretty close to the truth.

Although Hong Baobao did not do Chen Qiu's thing, it was Jing Pei who did it.

So, in essence, it's no different from what Hung Bo-bo did.

After all, they are family.

Hong Baobao and Jing Pei were not affected by Chen Qiu's arrival in any way.

They kept walking, for quite a while, and they were wandering aimlessly.

As a result, they unknowingly ended up in a village.

The people in this village all seem very simple and honest.

Along the way, there were children herding sheep.

Perhaps it was because Jingpei and Hongbaobao were dressed well, and also because they were both very good-looking.

Therefore, when the two of them appeared in the village, many eyes fell on them.

Hong Baobao saw a boy who looked to be about ten years old herding sheep, and she found it quite interesting.

The little boy wasn't dressed very well; he was wearing very ordinary clothes, which looked a bit faded, perhaps because they had been washed many times.

Although it was a bit far away, Hong Baobao still saw that the little boy's clothes were dirty, the kind of dirt that couldn't be washed off.

It's probably because it's been worn for too long that it turned out like that.

But Hong Baobao didn't mind at all. She thought the little boy herding sheep was quite interesting, and since it was the first time she had ever seen it, she found it rather amusing.

Jing Pei could also tell that Hong Baobao seemed quite interested in herding sheep.

Jingpei and Hongbaobao walked over. There were about thirty sheep in the flock. Hongbaobao only counted them roughly; she didn't count them carefully.

This was the first time Hong Baobao had ever seen a sheep in real life.

Hong Baobao was quite interested, and she couldn't resist touching the sheep. She only touched it lightly before pulling her hand back.

The texture of this sheep is actually quite nice.

Although it was only for a moment, Hong Baobao remembered that feeling.

Jing Pei stayed by Hong Baobao's side. If it weren't for Hong Baobao being there, Jing Pei would never have appeared here.

After all, Jing Pei has a slight case of mysophobia.

"Little boy, are these all your sheep?" Hong Baobao looked the little boy up and down, and while Hong Baobao was looking at the little boy, the little boy was also looking at Hong Baobao.

This village appears to be relatively wealthy, although there are also some poorer residents within it.

Wherever there are rich people, there will naturally be poor people.

The boy's family appeared to be not particularly well-off.

This can be seen from the little boy's clothes.

"Yes, these are all my sheep. Sister, did you and brother come here to look for someone?"

The little boy had dark skin and bright eyes. He stared at Hong Baobao without blinking and asked her a question.

Hong Baobao turned to look at Jing Pei, then turned to the little boy and said, "No, we came here by accident."

Then again, they really did end up here by accident.

Originally, they thought they could just wander around aimlessly after leaving the hotel, but they never expected to end up here.

However, at this moment, Hong Baobao was somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, they came here; otherwise, how would they have seen these sheep and this child?

Hong Baobao and Jing Pei were not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she asked the child some questions.

Now that they've come here today, Hong Baobao feels that she has a special connection with this village.

From the child, Hong Baobao learned a general understanding of the situation in the village.

Most families in this village are quite wealthy.

However, there were a few families who were extremely poor.

It was still early, so she simply took Jing Pei for a stroll around the area.

The village wasn't actually that big; they walked for about an hour and a half and then they had explored the entire village.

After walking for so long, Hong Baobao felt a little tired. She found a place to sit down and sat down with Jing Pei.

"Baby, what are you thinking about?" Jing Pei noticed that Hong Baobao had been resting her chin on her hand ever since she sat down, and he had no idea what she was thinking.
