Chapter 171 Father?
Hearing the door open, the girl on the sofa turned her head.
She stood up in surprise, "Li Xuanmeng? Why are you here?"
When she saw the woman's messy hair and bloodstains on her clothes, she frowned.
"Why are you covered in so much blood?"
Li Xuanmeng moved her mouth, but was so shocked by the scene before her that she couldn't speak.
What is this?
Is this imprisonment?
Why is it different from what I imagined?
While she was stunned, the girl had already called the maid to bring the medicine box.
Li Xuanmeng quickly refused: "No need!!"
She came here quietly, and it would be over if Pei Yanchuan found out.
The girl seemed to know what she was worried about, and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry, Pei Yanchuan won't be back for the time being, and they won't tell Pei Yanchuan."
Li Xuanmeng: “…” Ah?
Isn't this Pei Yanchuan's villa? Why do the servants still listen to you?
The maid next to her came forward and said respectfully, "Miss Li, I will help you treat your wound. I have prepared a new set of clothes for you in the room."
“…”
Li Xuanmeng was silent, Li Xuanmeng was shocked, and Li Xuanmeng compromised.
On the way here, the crazy excitement in my mind turned into confusion at this moment.
She looked at her disheveled body, raised her head as if sleepwalking, and said hesitantly:
"Then... excuse me?"
-
Pei family villa.
Pei Yushan paced back and forth in the living room, and his phone kept ringing with the reminder tone that no one was answering.
His patience completely exhausted, he threw his phone on the table with a gloomy face.
"Damn it! Why can't I get through?"
He never imagined that after selling the shares, the other party would directly take the position of president of Pei Group.
He has nothing now, but you told him that Pei Yanchuan was going back to the overseas head office and even took back the shares he had sold.
Pei Yushan still remembers the annoying tone of Silante's voice when he called him.
"Pei Yushan, you should stay in China and enjoy your retirement. Your son is much more capable than you, and the board of directors values him. It's time for you to give up your position. I know the Chinese saying is that the back wave pushes the front wave, and the front wave dies on the beach, right?"
“…”
Pei Yushan clenched his fists.
He would be a fool if he didn't react.
It turns out that this group of people are setting up a trap for him.
He suppressed his anger and said, "Pei Yanchuan is not suitable for managing a company. He has a serious mental illness. If he doesn't control his emotions well, he might even cause a death."
Silante said in a surprised tone: "Is this true?"
"Of course it's true."
Pei Yushan's eyes flickered. "I will prove it to the board of directors. If Pei Yanchuan is not competent, you must kick him out of the board."
On the other end of the phone, Silante took a sip of wine and laughed when he heard this.
"Then I'll wait and see."
Although he said this, Pei Yushan was actually unsure.
He frowned and picked up his phone from the table again, "Why is there still no news from that kid?"
He can't even do such a simple thing.
Just as I dialed the number, the phone rang outside the door.
Pei Yushan was stunned and turned around to see that the door was opened from the outside.
A man in a suit stood at the door. He was tall and straight, with cold eyes and a cell phone in his bony hands.
He lowered his eyes, looked at the caller ID on the screen, and lightly pressed the reject button.
Pei Yushan was stunned when he heard the ringtone suddenly stop.
"Is Pei Si's phone with you?"
Just as he finished speaking, several big men suddenly dragged in a man covered in blood and threw him to the ground with a thud.
When he saw the man's face, Pei Yushan's pupils shrank, his expression was shocked, and his cell phone fell to the ground with a click.
"Pace!?"
His face was grim, he raised his head fiercely, and said indignantly: "Pei Yanchuan, you killed Pei Si!?!"
The man glanced at him and said calmly, "You're saying he's dead before you even see him, Pei Yushan. You really want him dead."
Pei Yushan's body stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
He walked over, squatted down and sniffed the air. When he smelled the faint breath, his eyes darkened and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or disappointed.
"What did you do to Pei Si?"
Pei Yanchuan walked over slowly and said, "Pei Si is not dead. You must be very disappointed."
Pei Yushan's expression remained unchanged as he continued to accuse.
"What are you talking about! You tortured your brother like this, you lunatic! I'm going to call the police and have you arrested!"
His eyes fell on the cell phone not far away and he reached out to take it.
But the next second, a pair of expensive black leather shoes suddenly stepped on the back of his hand, crushing it hard.
Pei Yushan gasped in pain, his face grimacing as he instantly shouted, "Pei Yanchuan! What are you doing?! Let go!"
Pei Yanchuan walked carelessly, one hand in his pocket, lowered his eyes and said lightly: "What? I can't hear clearly."
Pei Yushan's teeth were almost broken as he struggled to pull his hand free and stand up.
"Get out—"
But the next second, he was clamped by a force, and someone pressed his head and pounded it hard on the ground with a thud.
Pei Yushan's pupils shrank and his vision went dark.
The cold marble floor sobered him up slightly.
"Let go!! Pei Yanchuan! I'm telling you, if you kill me and Pei Si! Don't even think about escaping! Where do you think a lunatic like you can run to? You even want to go abroad. The board of directors will definitely not let you return to the company if they know you're crazy!"
"Who said I would kill you?"
Hearing this, Pei Yushan was stunned and loosened his grip.
The strong man next to him suddenly picked him up.
While he was stunned, a dagger was forcefully stuffed into his hand with a force that left no room for refusal.
The man brought him in front of Pei Si, and the other man held his hand tightly and pointed the dagger at Pei Si's heart.
Seeing his own son's face facing him, Pei Yushan's face turned pale. He instantly realized something and raised his head in disbelief, "Pei Yanchuan, what are you doing?!"
The man sat on the sofa, his long legs crossed, his fingertips gently stroking the wedding rings. After looking at them for a few seconds with ambiguous meaning, he raised his hand slightly, and the rings folded in the air, emitting a cold luster.
The next second, Pei Yushan's hand was pressed down by someone.
"Swish--" the sharp blade pierced the clothes.
Pei Yushan's face turned pale, his pupils dilated, his voice trembled and panicked, and he tried hard to control his hands so that they would not fall.
If he really killed Pei Si, he would be really finished!
He trembled and said, "Wait, wait, wait... Pei Yanchuan, I'm your father! I'm your father! You can't do this to me!!"
Pei Yanchuan laughed suddenly.
"Father?"
He walked up to Pei Yushan and slowly squatted down. There was no emotion in his dark eyes, and his calm tone seemed to be repeating an insignificant matter.
"My father, you can frame the crime of murder on me and send me to a mental hospital. You can use your own son and then abandon him. No, to be more precise, you actually wanted to abandon me from the beginning."
"Pei Yushan, do you think I don't know what happened in the past?"
Pei Yushan was in a panic and even started to play the family card.
"Yanchuan, I was indeed sorry for what happened back then. It was Dad who neglected you, but Dad also worked hard for you. Otherwise, how do you think you would have the life you have now?"
"Besides, I'm your only relative now. As long as you let me go, I'll let you do whatever you want with Pei Si."
He spoke faster and faster, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his tone was filled with unconcealable panic and nervousness.
"And your girlfriend, right? Didn't she break up with you? Dad asked her to get back together with you. I won't care about you two anymore after you two are together. How about that?"
But Pei Yanchuan was only silent for a moment, then suddenly lowered his head and laughed out loud.
"A relative?"
The corners of his mouth curled up, "Pei Yushan, do you know who the new president of Pei Corporation is?"
That Qin Mingfan?
Of course Pei Yushan had investigated the other party's background. The other party was the owner of a small company and posed no threat to him at all.
But the next second, Pei Yanchuan's words made him stunned.
"He was the Qin family's former adopted son and my mother's younger brother."
Pei Yushan felt as if he had been electrocuted, his expression stunned. "...What?"
Qin Mingfan is that woman’s younger brother?
How is that possible? Doesn't the Qin family have only one daughter?
Pei Yanchuan stood up and continued, "Surprised, huh? You ruined the Qin family and transferred their assets, but in the end, all your efforts over the years have flowed back to the Qin family."
Pei Yanchuan really hated his mother, but he also knew that only this kind of thing would make Pei Yushan completely collapse.
Pei Yushan hated that woman so much that he even wanted to kill her.
Once you realize that all your efforts over the years have been wasted and you get nothing in the end, you will probably be so angry that you will lose all your rationality.
As expected, after Pei Yushan realized what was happening, his eyes widened, veins popped out on his neck, and he was almost furious.
"Impossible!! How could he be that woman's brother!"
"Pei Yanchuan, you actually helped an outsider! You actually gave my property to an outsider!!"
Pei Yanchuan laughed, "Your family property?"
He spoke slowly and with a hint of sarcasm, "Pei Yushan, you have nothing now. Your shares are already in that person's hands."
The cruel truth was exposed bloodily, Pei Yushan's face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with hatred and madness.
"No!!! Pei Yanchuan, you can't do this to me!"
He's worked hard for most of his life! And you tell him to just give it away like that!
How is it possible! How could he possibly agree to this?!
Not knowing where he got the strength from, Pei Yushan broke away from the others, stood up and rushed over, stabbing Pei Yanchuan's heart with a knife.
His face was ferocious, his eyes almost bloodshot, "Pei Yanchuan! Give me back my shares!!"
But at this time, the unconscious Pei Si woke up vaguely, feeling the pain and stickiness on his face. He frowned and subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the blood off his face.
This directly tripped Pei Yushan, and he lost his balance and fell down.
Only a dull stabbing sound was heard, accompanied by the man's rapid wail, and warm blood splattered on the floor.
The incident happened so quickly that no one could react. The living room fell into silence for a moment.
When he finally reacted, Pei Yushan's pupils suddenly shrank. He trembled and let go of his hand, and sticky blood stained his palm.
The knife in his hand had now pierced Pei Si's neck.
Pei Si lying on the ground died with his eyes open and blood flowing from his mouth. He stared at Pei Yushan in front of him, with astonishment and disbelief in his dilated pupils.
Pei Yanchuan slowly curled his lips, "Now you really have to do it yourself."
Pei Yushan let go of his hand in a daze. The blood in his hand stung his eyes, and the warm blood burned his skin. Panic and fear surged in his heart.
"No...it's not me...it's you..."
He shook his head in fear and murmured tremblingly, "It wasn't me who killed Pei Si."
A regretful sigh came from the man above my head.
"It seems that your mental state is not very stable now."
Pei Yushan instantly guessed what the man meant. His face changed drastically as he loudly defended himself, "I didn't! I'm in good spirits! Pei Yanchuan! Don't even think about sending me to a mental hospital! Don't even think about it!!"
But the man just slowly raised his eyelids and glanced at the surveillance camera in the living room.
"You don't count. The evidence is already there."
"Pei Yanchuan! Come back here!!"
Pei Yushan's face was completely pale. Seeing Pei Yanchuan turn around and leave, he roared and wanted to chase him, but someone held his shoulders tightly.
He turned his head and said calmly to the person next to him: "Handle the surveillance and contact the mental hospital."
"Yes, Mr. Pei."
The man nodded. Seeing Pei Yanchuan was about to leave, he hesitated for a few seconds before speaking: "Mr. Pei, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
"What's up?"
"You asked Assistant Qi to take that woman over there..." The man swallowed, "But our eldest brother said he didn't see Assistant Qi coming."
Hearing this, Pei Yanchuan glanced sideways and asked, "Didn't Qi Lou go?"
"Yes...so my brother wanted me to ask you if there was any accident."
Pei Yanchuan took out his cell phone and called Qi Lou, but the only sound he got was the phone being turned off.
He frowned slightly, put away his phone and said coldly, "Find the person first."
-
At this time, on the other side.
After treating her wound and changing into new clothes, Li Xuanmeng felt very uncomfortable at this moment.
She glanced at the sofa on the other side and asked, "Didn't you...go abroad?"
The girl on the sofa nodded while chewing, blinked, and swallowed before speaking: "Yes, that's how it should be."
"So now...?"
Yang Cici said calmly, "As you can see, it's not reasonable now. I'm locked up."
“…”
It doesn't look like that, it looks more like they are here to enjoy themselves.
Her eyes fell on the maids waiting around, and she thought to herself, no wonder they were so lenient. With so many people assigned to monitor her, Yang Cici couldn't leave even if she wanted to.
If there were fewer people, there might be a chance.
She raised her head and looked at Yang Cici, "Can we go to the room to talk? There are too many people here."
"A lot of people?" The girl looked at it and agreed, "It's true."
Li Xuanmeng was about to get up when she heard Yang Cici say, "You guys go and do your work first. I want to talk to her alone."
The next second, the maid nodded and said, "Yes."
Li Xuanmeng: "..." Sister, you are a little too free.
Yang Cici pushed the fruit plate towards her and said, "Don't worry, I asked Pei Yanchuan to turn off the surveillance camera. He doesn't know you're here yet."
“…”
Li Xuanmeng frowned. She began to suspect that Yuyang Cici had been hypnotized and her memory had been tampered with.
"Do you know how you got locked up here?"
Yang Cici nodded and said, "I remember. Pei Yanchuan drugged me and locked me up here and didn't allow me to leave."
Li Xuanmeng paused, but couldn't help but speak: "He locked you up here, why are you still so calm? He is restricting your personal freedom!"
"Yang Cici, you wouldn't still fall in love with him under such circumstances, would you?"
How could someone be so calm about being locked up here? Could he be suffering from Stockholm syndrome?
