Chapter 148 Provocation



The ward suddenly became quiet, with only the two of them left.

Shang Boyu saw that she no longer had the white box in her hand, and his lips formed a sharp straight line.

Meng Sheng walked to the edge of the bed.

One is standing, the other is sitting, one is high and the other is low.

One lowered his eyes, the other raised them, and they just stared at each other.

"Why did you take so long?"

"Why are you scaring a little girl?"

A deep and hoarse voice and a soft and pleasant voice sounded at the same time.

Both of them were stunned.

Meng Sheng said, "We went downstairs and chatted for a while."

But he didn't say with whom.

Shang Boyu's eyes were dark, as if containing some kind of storm, and he said in a deep voice, "With Aunt Ren?"

Meng Sheng felt uncomfortable being stared at like that, and suppressed his emotions and said, "Didn't I tell you when I went downstairs?"

After hesitating for a moment, she reached out to touch his forehead, which seemed to have warmed up a little.

She frowned and asked seriously, "Why don't you get the injection? The fever seems to have recurred."

Shang Boyu glanced at her, his eyes still somewhat gloomy, as if he was still judging the sincerity of her concern.

After a moment, he said, "I just received a call from Special Assistant Liang, saying that the person who manipulated public opinion a few days ago has been found."

Meng Sheng was stunned and opened his mouth subconsciously, "Who?"

"Pei Sui."

Shang Boyu stared at her face and slowly uttered these two words.

Meng Sheng was stunned.

The first reaction was impossible!

It can't be Pei Sui.

He was her attorney, there was no need for him to do that.

Moreover, in the more than three months of knowing each other, she felt that Pei Sui would not disdain to do such a despicable thing.

She met Shang Boyu's dark eyes, and unexpectedly caught a hint of malice.

But he quickly suppressed it.

Her heart sank.

I also guessed his intention.

This is an attempt to sow discord between her and Pei Sui.

Yes, Shang Boyu seemed to have always been bothered by Pei Sui's existence.

This concern comes from a man's instinctive possessiveness and his humble self-esteem.

She knew from the beginning that Shang Boyu was humble about his illegitimate child status and was afraid of being talked about.

He is very concerned about his reputation.

So all these years, because she loved him, she always gave him enough face, never compared him with his family background, and always took care of his feelings carefully and considerately.

I'm just afraid that he will be frustrated and hurt.

From the beginning they were together, she never cared about or despised his identity as an illegitimate child.

I always feel that it is the grudge of the previous generation, he is innocent, and he cannot choose his own birth or his parents.

Qiu Yi once said that she was clearly in a superior position in this relationship, so why did she always have to belittle Shang Boyu?

But she never felt that she was inferior to him. She felt that they were equal and respected each other.

He cares for her and she cares for him.

There is no need to fight for the so-called dominance.

These memories, like slides and fireworks, bloomed one after another in her mind.

She just frowned when Shang Boyu's sinister voice suddenly rang in her ears, "You don't believe me?"

Meng Sheng pulled himself out of the depths of his memory. He didn't say whether he believed it or not. He just said, "I just feel very surprised. He doesn't look like that kind of person."

"Do you know Pei Sui well?"

Meng Sheng paused slightly.

It's hard to say that she understood him. The part she knew about him was actually very one-sided. She hadn't even deliberately tried to learn about the Pei family, the richest family in Beijing.

She said calmly, "I don't understand. I just think that it would be of no benefit to him to create public opinion to ruin my reputation. I can't think of any reason why he would do that."

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. Don't be fooled by his handsome appearance. Who knows what kind of person he is in private?"

Shang Boyu sneered, "How can a person who can kill his twin sister at the age of three be a good person?"

Killing the twin sister?!

Meng Sheng's pupils suddenly contracted.

The last time I went to the west of the city, I met Pei Huan who was...

Aren’t she and Pei Sui twin siblings?

Although she was in the wealthy circle of Beijing, she seemed to be always separated from these families by a barrier.

It was a barrier that she could not cross, nor was she willing to cross.

In the words of some people in the circle, people who study art are not easy to get along with. They are upright and have high moral character, unlike ordinary people like them.

She really knew nothing about the Pei family.

So it’s particularly unexpected now.

Perhaps it was because she was feeling a little irritable at the moment, as if the jealous rage was about to burst her chest, Shang Boyu inexplicably caught a glimpse of fear in her eyes.

He wanted to sow discord between Meng Sheng and Pei Sui, and he wanted Meng Sheng to stay away from Pei Sui on his own initiative.

Let him become Meng Sheng's only support.

The only thing I can rely on...

He recalled Meng Sheng's dependence on him when she had a miscarriage and was hospitalized some time ago.

That must not be fake.

So, even if Meng Sheng and Pei Sui really had something going on, he wouldn't mind.

right.

Don't mind.

After all, he and Ning Weiwei had a relationship before, and they both cheated once, so that made them even.

The burden and guilt in my heart subsided a little, and another new word emerged in my mind.

rely……

Yes, as long as there is dependence, she can't leave him.

But how can he make her dependent on him again?

Provoking is not enough.

Too slow.

There was a gleam of viciousness in his eyes.

Pei Sui, the biggest threat, must be eliminated.

While Meng Sheng was shocked, he held her hand, and the gloom in his eyes and the low pressure in the aura around him also subsided.

He comforted her softly, "Shengsheng, it's okay, don't be afraid. Just stay away from him in the future. As for his fabrication of public opinion, I will let Special Assistant Liang continue to investigate."

Meng Sheng came back to his senses, his eyes focused on his gentle and affectionate eyes.

She is really curious.

How can a person's face change so quickly?

She didn't even need to guess, she understood that Pei Sui had deliberately told her about the murder of her twin sisters.

But it did make her feel a little confused and curious.

Fear and terror and that sort of thing, no.

She didn't want to dwell on this matter too much, so she nodded and agreed, "Okay. Now should I cooperate with the nurse to give me the injection?"

Seeing the helplessness on her face, Shang Boyu smiled and reached out to pinch her palm.

She has beautiful hands, white and slender.

The palms still feel a bit fleshy.

"It's my fault. I just received a call from Special Assistant Liang. I was a little out of control. I was just too angry and worried that he would hurt you. But don't worry, this kind of thing won't happen again. I'm here."

He sees himself as her savior.

As long as he stands in front of her and protects her amidst numerous difficulties, she will always be moved and softened.

He doesn't see this as self-deception.

But it was a conclusion drawn from my understanding of Meng Sheng.

Meng Sheng has never been a hard-hearted person.
