Chapter 38 Take Me Off the Blacklist
Night falls and the moon is high in the sky.
Pei family, outside a European-style villa halfway up the mountain.
Mo Qingqing held Pei Yuanxi's hand and looked at the villa which was decorated in a high-end and classy style without a trace of envy in her eyes.
"Are you nervous?" Pei Yuanxi asked.
Mo Qingqing shook his head: "Not nervous."
Then the two of them went in together.
I thought that the Pei family would never embarrass myself in front of so many people, but Mo Qingqing was overthinking it. Some people are not as good as I thought.
As soon as they arrived at the gate, the guard stopped them and asked for their invitation.
Mo Qingqing raised his eyebrows. They didn't have an invitation! What should I do? Why not return home?
Obviously Pei Yuanxi thought so too. When he was about to turn around and leave with Mo Qingqing, a woman's voice came from behind him.
"Xi Yuan, why are you leaving now that you are already home? Do you know that today is your grandfather's birthday? The guests are here, you can't let them laugh at you!" Mrs. Fu said in a bad tone.
Pei Yuanxi turned around and looked at her, sneering: "You invited us here, and now you're doing this. You didn't make this joke yourself!"
It is true that Pei Yuanxi is the illegitimate son of the Pei family, but he is also the son of the Pei family and has lived in the Pei family. The gatekeeper at the door knows him, but he still needs an invitation to enter. Isn't this making things difficult for him?
Do you really think he's interested in coming to the Pei family?
Mrs. Fu glared at the guard and said with a smile, "It must be the guard's negligence. He is new here and you haven't been back for a long time. He doesn't know. Mom will come out to pick you up in person. Come in quickly!"
Pei Yuanxi remained unmoved.
Mo Qingqing squeezed his palm, reminding him to agree.
Pei Yuanxi's expression then relaxed. He glanced at the guard and pulled Mo Qingqing inside.
Mrs. Fu's face darkened when she saw Mo Qingqing, but in order to please her son, she had to put on a cheerful smile.
Mo Qingqing was so happy when he saw this.
She just likes the way some people can't stand her but can't get rid of her.
The people invited to Mr. Pei’s 80th birthday party were all well-known figures in the business world.
Mo Qingqing was already prepared to meet acquaintances here and had also prepared countermeasures, so when she followed Pei Yuanxi in, she held her head high and her chest puffed out, with her aura fully open.
Before she came, she had asked the system to give her all the unused temperament bonuses. Now that she just appeared there, her temperament became noble.
Although the skirt she wore was quite conservative, it was not ugly. It had a unique beauty on her.
In an instant, she attracted a lot of attention with her pretty face and unique temperament.
When the people standing in the crowd saw Mo Qingqing, their expressions varied.
Especially Ye He, his face turned black.
Mo Qingqing was prepared, but she met several acquaintances at once, so she was somewhat prepared but not much.
When she received the freezing gaze from Mr. Ye, she couldn't help but stiffen.
Ever since Ye He asked her out for a drink at school last time, she took advantage of him talking to the school officials and took Pei Yuanxi away, and they haven't seen each other since.
When she saw this, she was quite scared.
The main thing is, Ye He’s eyes are so scary!
"Don't be afraid." Pei Yuanxi thought she was scared of facing so many people's gazes suddenly, so he patted her head to comfort her!
Their actions were so intimate that anyone with a discerning eye could tell they had a close relationship.
Mo Qingqing also saw Jiang Ming, Ouyang Yi and a handsome guy whom she had glanced at at the hospital entrance last time in the crowd.
Mo Qingqing’s memory is not good in other aspects, but she can really remember handsome guys’ faces.
The other person seemed to notice her gaze and gave her a faint look.
Jiang Ming's face looked extremely ugly, but due to the people around him, he couldn't come over. In addition, the situation today was not suitable, otherwise he would have to fight with Pei Yuanxi again.
Mo Qingqing ignored their gazes and followed Pei Yuanxi to give a gift to Mr. Pei.
There were quite a lot of people standing around Mr. Pei. Mo Qingqing also saw Pei Yan and Pei Yan, but she didn't recognize the rest.
When Pei Yuanxi's father Pei Cheng saw his youngest son coming over, there was no expression on his face. He just stood next to Grandpa Pei.
In a tone without any emotion, he said: "You still remember to come back?"
Pei Yuanxi said nothing. After putting the gift on the table, he said something indifferently.
“I wish you good health.”
Then he took Mo Qingqing's hand and turned to leave.
Mr. Pei said angrily: "Stop!"
Pei Yuanxi stopped as he was told.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Old Pei pointed at Mo Qingqing and asked, "Whose child is this?"
Mo Qingqing: “…” She had remained silent, so why were you asking her about this?
Pei Yuanxi: "My girlfriend."
If you ask Pei Yuan whose child Ximo Qingqing is, he really doesn't know.
Mo Qingqing took the initiative to speak at this time, her voice was sweet, and she spoke with a respectful tone to the elders: "Hello, Mr. Pei, my name is Mo Qingqing."
"I remember there is no wealthy family with the surname Mo in Beijing!" A member of the Pei family's side branch said at this time.
Mo Qingqing looked over and saw a middle-aged man with a pointed chin and monkey-like face.
"Oh, that's right, I'm an orphan." She spoke again, her attitude still respectful.
Upon hearing that she was an orphan, Old Pei's face changed, while the other members of the Pei family looked as if they were waiting for a good show.
Mo Qingqing sneered in his heart, this is the wealthy family, they have all kinds of faces.
Pei Yuanxi held her hand slightly tighter.
He had just found out that she was an orphan, and heartache instantly spread throughout his heart.
Old Pei said with a sullen face: "Do you know that the children of our Pei family only marry people of equal status?"
Mo Qingqing smiled innocently and said, "I don't know!" She was not from the Pei family, so what did she know?
Seeing her like this, everyone was stunned and really thought that Mo Qingqing was very naive.
Pei Yuanxi said at this time: "You don't need to know. Anyway, the person I married is you, and the Pei family has nothing to do with me."
After saying this, he glanced at his nominal father and sneered, "You agree, right, Mr. Pei?"
When he uttered such outrageous words, both Pei Lao and Pei Cheng's faces immediately changed, looking ugly.
Pei Yuanxi's mother was so anxious that she just stared blankly and glared at Mo Qingqing hatefully.
Originally, she wanted to take this opportunity to let Pei Yuanxi return to the Pei family, but unexpectedly, Mo Qingqing showed up.
After Pei Yuanxi finished speaking, he ignored the gazes of those people and left with Mo Qingqing.
He even ignored Mr. Pei who was behind them asking them to stop.
After leaving the hall, Mo Qingqing felt those gazes again.
"Are you hungry?" Pei Yuanxi asked suddenly.
Mo Qingqing shook her head: "I'm not hungry." She just wanted to leave quickly.
Pei Yuanxi seemed to know what she was thinking and took her out the door.
As soon as they walked out of the door, they thought they could escape those gazes, but Ye He was blocking the door. When he saw them come out, he suddenly called her.
"Mo Qingqing." The voice was gloomy.
When he called out the three names "Mo Qingqing", Jiang Ming, who was standing not far away, suddenly stopped and turned his head to look in their direction.
Mo Qingqing looked at Ye He, calmed himself down, and put on a professional smile: "Boss Ye, what a coincidence, we meet again."
Mo Qingqing really didn't understand whether these men were mentally ill or not? They had broken up, but they still looked down on their exes.
If it wasn't for the fact that he needed to be conquered later, how could Mo Qingqing even look at him!
It's really infuriating.
"Can I have a word with you?" He was quite polite.
Mo Qingqing glanced at Pei Yuanxi, who shook his head at her.
After exchanging glances in front of Ye He, Mr. Ye's face turned gloomy again.
"Well, Mr. Ye, I think we have nothing to talk about!"
"Really? Regarding the contract, I forgot to show you that day." Ye He suppressed the emotions in his eyes and returned to his calm state.
Contract! Mo Qingqing was suspicious: "Boss Ye, what contract?" She didn't remember.
Ye He glanced at Pei Yuanxi and asked her, "Are you sure you want to chat here?"
Mo Qingqing: "..." Not sure what the contract was, she thought about talking to Ye He about it! Anyway, they would have to talk about it later.
Then she looked at Pei Yuanxi: "Wait for me here?"
Pei Yuanxi held her hand tightly, seemingly unwilling to let her leave.
Mo Qingqing comforted him: "It will be very soon."
In the end, Pei Yuanxi let go of her hand.
Following Ye He to a fountain at Pei's house, Mo Qingqing didn't want to waste time and asked directly.
"Boss Ye, what contract?"
Ye He did not answer but said: "Take me off the blacklist."
Mo Qingqing: “…No, you wouldn’t be…” You must be fooling her!
"Pull it out and I'll send it to you via text message." Ye He.
Mo Qingqing looked at him suspiciously, but still removed him from the blacklist.
"What is your relationship with Pei Yuanxi?" he asked suddenly.
Mo Qingqing pretended to be reserved and said, "My boyfriend."
She heard Ye He's breathing become heavier.
Seeing that Ye He didn't say anything else, Mo Qingqing tactfully wanted to leave.
"Boss Ye, is there nothing else? I'm leaving now?"
Ye He still looked at her without saying anything.
Mo Qingqing ignored him and trotted over to Pei Yuanxi, holding his arm and walked away.
Pei Yuanxi's tense expression relaxed and he took her away from the Pei family villa.
As soon as they left, Jiang Ming, who was standing not far away, followed them.
After leaving Pei's house, both of them were hungry, so they found a restaurant and had a meal.
Pei Yuanxi's cell phone rang while he was eating.
It’s grandma calling.
Pei Yuanxi answered the phone in front of her.
"Xiaoyuan, they didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Grandma's concerned words came out.
Pei Yuanxi comforted her: "Grandma, no, I'm already home. Have you eaten?"
"Eat it, it's good if nothing happens. What about the little girl? Did they embarrass her?"
“Neither do I.”
After saying a few more words, Pei Yuanxi hung up the phone.
Pei Yuanxi paused for a long time, and then mustered up the courage to ask: "You and Ye He are..."
Mo Qingqing said in a light tone: "I used to be his assistant. I was attracted by his looks and was with him for a few months." He would have to know this in the future. It would be a good idea to give him a shot of prevention first.
Ye He’s ex-girlfriend!
Pei Yuanxi felt his heart lift instantly, and he asked cautiously: "Is he trying to win you back?"
Mo Qingqing shook his head, smiled and said, "No, Mr. Ye is such a person, why would he go back to his ex!"
Pei Yuanxi thought so too, and his heart dropped again in an instant.
