Chapter 185 Only a decisive blow can be used
"You want face, right? I'll give you some." Jiang Fei said, "But I'll have to deduct money."
"What's the deduction?"
"Of course it's depreciation." Jiang Fei pointed outside, "Is the stone table scratched a little? Is the chair broken? Is the flowerpot broken? The flowers have lost leaves, but I haven't charged you yet."
Pei Jing was speechless and choked with emotion.
What in this house didn't belong to him? He spent money to buy it, and when it broke, he spent money to replace it, and in the end he had to pay her back.
He exhaled, "Tell me, how much should I deduct?"
Jiang Fei's eyes lit up, "One thousand taels."
He immediately took out a small notebook from his sleeve, turned to the first page, and wrote a line of crooked handwriting: On the tenth day of the tenth month of the twenty-third year of Zhaowen, Pei Jing smashed the yard and ordered him to pay one thousand taels of silver as compensation.
Then he showed it to Pei Jing, "Do you recognize it?"
Pei Jing nodded helplessly, "I admit it."
"Sign it if you agree."
Although Wen Zhu was far away, she had good hearing and smiled like an auntie. "This is so sweet. I really want to hold my head down and let them kiss me."
Jiu Tao spoke softly, "Do you dare?"
Of course Wen Zhu didn't dare to joke, and listened carefully with his ears perked up.
Pei Jing asked again: "Why did you come back?"
Jiang Fei had long wanted to have a frank talk with Pei Jing, but this man was always awkward and it was difficult to talk properly.
"If I don't come back, where else can I go?"
Pei Jing's lips moved slightly, but the words "Wei Mingzhen" were stuck in his throat and couldn't come out.
Jiang Fei roughly guessed what he was thinking by looking at his expression. Wei Mingzhen was Pei Jing's heart knot. If this knot could not be untied, there would always be a knot between the two of them.
If she couldn't stay, time would be running out. She didn't want to waste her time on suspicion. She had to capture Pei Jing quickly so that they could live a shameless life. Otherwise, if he really died, it would be a shame for her as a virgin.
"Pei Songnian." Jiang Fei reached out and took his hand. She felt it tremble under her palm. She continued, "I'll tell you the truth. I have never liked Wei Mingzhen."
Pei Jing suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, his heart almost jumping out of his chest.
Wen Zhu, who was eavesdropping outside, excitedly pinched Jiutao's arm. Jiutao grimaced in pain but dared not make a sound.
In fact, Jiang Fei was also nervous. For the first time in her life, she hit a block when she was moved. She hinted: "Then...what about you?"
It's said so clearly, even a piece of wood should understand.
"I...me too," Pei Jing nodded seriously, "I've never liked Wei Mingzhen either."
“…”
Jiang Fei raised her hand to cover her forehead, the system's laughter already ringing in her head.
Jiang Fei took a deep breath and cursed the system in her heart: "Shut up!"
The system didn't accept the threat and laughed non-stop: "This is an invincible brain circuit, can you still communicate with it?"
"I have to slow down."
Jiang Fei withdrew his hand speechlessly, picked up the bowl and ate the rice, while talking to the system in his head: "If soft tactics don't work, then we can only use hard tactics."
The system suddenly became alert: "Are you going to force yourself on him?"
"Can I beat him with that kind of strength?" Jiang Fei said, "I mean, he's already developed a habit. Now's the time to change it. Give him a shock. Tomorrow, as long as I don't let the maid ask him to come and execute him, he'll definitely be furious and can't help but come and kill me. Then..."
Jiang Fei couldn't help but reveal a lewd smile on her face.
…
The sun gradually set and the yard was so quiet that only the chirping of insects could be heard.
When Pei Jing looked out the window for the seventeenth time, Duan Jiu couldn't help but ask after holding back all day, "Is the prince waiting for a message from the maid? Otherwise, I'll go and ask."
Pei Jing didn't say anything. He waited until the ray of light disappeared and candles were lit in the yard. Then he leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh as if he was relieved.
"Fortunately, fortunately he didn't come."
Duan Jiu didn't understand. "Isn't the prince waiting for someone to deliver a message?"
"Of course not." Pei Jing frowned and said, "If she had sent a maid, I would have gone, but now that she is my benefactor, I cannot torture her anymore. It really puts me in a dilemma."
Duan Jiu: “…”
Jiang Fei waited and waited but no one showed up. It was only when it got dark that she felt something was wrong.
The system scoffed, "Was my prediction wrong this time? I didn't train Pei Jing like a dog, but I trained myself like a dog. I've been waiting all day."
Jiang Fei really wanted to manually mute the system. "You're not good at anything. You can't help at all. You just laugh at the host. What's the use of you?"
"Angry out of shame." The system said proudly: "This system will show you my power and give you a reminder that Pei Jing's brain circuits are different from those of normal people."
Jiang Fei now remembered, "Right! Then I won't beat around the bush, I'll just go straight for it!"
Jiang Fei rushed into Pei Jing's yard with great momentum. The light was on in the study, Duan Jiu's shadow was swaying on the window, the door was closed, and the two people were obviously talking about something important.
Just as the maid was about to pay her respects, Jiang Fei made a gesture to keep quiet, took off her shoes, and tiptoed to the window. Pei Jing's voice immediately came from the room.
"...She must have gone out and returned after realizing there was no chance for her and Wei Mingzhen to be together. Regardless of whether her claim of liking Wei Mingzhen is true or not, since she is already here with me and there is no way for her and Wei Mingzhen to continue their relationship, I have plenty of time to change her mind."
Jiang Feile smiled. This piece of wood finally got the hang of it. It was not easy.
Duan Jiu asked, "What is your Highness going to do next?"
"Send her back."
Jiang Fei: “???”
"Ah?" Duan Jiu was stunned. He finally snatched the person away, but now he sends the person back?
The door was suddenly kicked open, and Jiang Fei rushed in, shoes in hand. "Pei Jing, what do you mean? You snatched me away, ruined my marriage, and now you're sending me away?"
Pei Jing stood up suddenly, almost knocking the chair over with him. "I..."
Seeing the shoes in her hand, Pei Jing frowned, "Why don't you put on your shoes properly? It's October, the ground is cold."
As he spoke, he walked over and asked her to sit on the chair. He took her shoes and squatted down to put them on her.
"I have considered this matter carefully. You are still an unmarried woman. I was wrong to do so before. I should respect you."
Jiang Fei said: "Actually... you don't have to respect me."
If you are too respectful, when will readers be able to eat meat?
"Of course." Pei Jing brushed the dust off her clean socks, put on his shoes, and said seriously, "The kidnapping of the bride is irreparable, but I will find a way to make amends. I've already ordered a carriage to be prepared to take you back to the Jiang Mansion tomorrow morning."
Jiang Fei quickly pulled her foot back, afraid that she would not be able to resist kicking him. Is this guy deliberately going against her?
"Pei Songnian! What do you mean?"
"It means exactly what it says." Pei Jing avoided her gaze. "I've figured it out. A forced melon won't be sweet..."
"Who said it's not sweet anymore!" Jiang Fei grabbed his collar angrily, "I just like to take things by force."
Pei Jing was forced to raise his chin, his expression stunned for a moment, but then he showed understanding. "Don't worry, since I have already snatched you back, your reputation has been damaged, and I will be responsible for you. After I send you back, I will ask the emperor for permission to cancel the engagement. If you are willing, then ask the emperor to grant us a marriage."
Jiang Fei frowned. First the engagement had to be cancelled and then granted, and then there was also the need to pay the betrothal gifts, request a date, and report to the temple... This series of procedures would take at least a year and a half. Her body might not be able to hold on until then, and she couldn't afford to wait.
Back in the yard, Jiang Fei sat by the bed with a worried look on her face. Wen Zhu and Jiu Tao looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
"In that case, the only option is to use a decisive blow."
Wen Zhu asked, "What is the ultimate kill?"
Jiang Fei clenched his fist and said, "It's done!"
