Chapter 71 Chasing My Wife
"Pei Jiuyan, when will you ever stop?"
Yun Zhaozhao felt like she couldn't breathe. She just wanted to go her separate ways with Pei Jiuyan, so why was it so difficult?
Pei Jiuyan was already used to her cold words. He glanced at Fu Shangluo behind Yun Zhaozhao before whispering, "Aunt Chen won't cook for me, and she won't let me touch anything in the house."
Before Yun Zhaozhao could speak, he added, "I have no money for food."
"Then get out of here, just go back to your own home."
Yun Zhaozhao said irritably.
“I’ve dismissed all the servants in the Pei family. I can’t afford to support them anymore. I have no money and nowhere to go.”
“The Pei family ancestral home is also in my name, but now the ownership belongs to you.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhaozhao sneered, "So that's why."
She said that the reason Pei Jiuyan pulled this stunt was because he couldn't hold on any longer.
“Pei Jiuyan, I can return everything you have left, including your shares.”
"I have only one request: to disappear completely from my world."
Money is important, but she really doesn't want to see Pei Jiuyan anymore; he's just too much of a headache.
"No, no, those are all obvious, I don't want them."
Don't give me that.
As Yun Zhaozhao was about to call her lawyer, Pei Jiuyan said, "Give it to me, I'll take it as part of my dowry and marry into the family."
Yun Zhaozhao's grip on her phone tightened involuntarily; Pei Jiuyan was indeed seriously ill.
Fu Shangluo originally didn't want to get involved, but seeing Yun Zhaozhao so angry, he quickly went over and frowned at Pei Jiuyan.
"President Pei, a real man should be able to take things in stride. You're making a fool of yourself like this."
Pei Jiuyan has no shame now, let alone such a bland remark. He said indifferently, "What's so shameful about pursuing a wife?"
Fu Shangluo is just too concerned about his reputation; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to steal her away in the first place.
Pei Jiuyan has always been shameless, and he's willing to risk everything for Yun Zhaozhao.
Finally, Pei Jiuyan managed to get into the car, even though he was only in the back seat and forced to breathe the same air as Fu Shangluo. But with Yun Zhaozhao there, he could endure it.
"What...what's going on?"
When Zhou Xiao arrived at the door of the private room, she was completely stunned by the scene inside.
Yun Zhaozhao sat in the middle, with Pei Jiuyan and Fu Shangluo on either side of her, like two great protectors. What kind of top-level Shura field was this?
Wen Jingyu parked his car a step too late and came in, looking completely bewildered when he saw this scene.
The two exchanged a glance and both considered backing out; they figured they might as well skip the meal.
However, Yun Zhaozhao had already seen them, so they had no choice but to go inside.
"Professor Fu, Zhaozhao."
The two greeted Yun Zhaozhao and Fu Shangluo, but ignored Pei Jiuyan. Pei Jiuyan didn't mind and continued to cook beef for Yun Zhaozhao. The little princess was picky, so the beef couldn't be too tough or undercooked, or she would get an upset stomach later.
Looking at the contents of the bowl, Yun Zhaozhao unceremoniously asked someone to replace it with a new one.
Seeing Pei Jiuyan about to serve her more food, she said coldly, "Can you stop wasting food?"
"Oh, okay."
Pei Jiuyan obediently put down her chopsticks. Seeing this, Zhou Xiao and Wen Jingyu were both stunned, especially Wen Jingyu. He simply couldn't connect the submissive Pei Jiuyan in front of him with the arrogant and domineering person from before.
He was itching to do it; he really wanted to record this scene so that those who had been bullied by Pei Jiuyan could see just how despicable Pei Jiuyan really was.
The moment the thought crossed her mind, she inadvertently met Pei Jiuyan's gaze.
The other person had a smile on their lips, but their eyes sent chills down your spine.
Wen Jingyu quickly looked away. Pei Jiuyan was still the same Pei Jiuyan; he hadn't become a sick cat. He only bowed his head to Yun Zhaozhao.
Yun Zhaozhao tried her best to ignore Pei Jiuyan beside her. She had figured it out. Let him follow her if he wants. The more she paid attention to him, the more arrogant he became. Once he got bored, he would be fine.
Yun Zhaozhao acted as if Pei Jiuyan didn't exist, talking about her future plans. She mentioned her collaboration with Fu Shangluo and asked Zhou Xiao to help promote it. Zhou Xiao was in that business, so he naturally agreed.
"Don't worry, I'll arrange the story writer. I guarantee it will be perfect."
Thanks.
Yun Zhaozhao raised her glass and clinked it with hers. She took a sip, frowned, and didn't say anything. Her iced cola had been replaced with hot milk.
It goes without saying who did it.
Although Pei Jiuyan didn't serve Yun Zhaozhao any more food, he made frequent small gestures, such as changing her milk, placing tissues next to her, and wiping her bowl and chopsticks. The little princess was a bit of a clean freak and didn't like greasy things.
In short, he acted the whole time like a lonely woman desperately seeking attention.
When this thought flashed through Zhou Xiao's mind, she felt like she was floating on air, actually describing the famous Ninth Master Pei in such a way.
Throughout the meal, Pei Jiuyan didn't say a word, but his presence was so strong that it was hard to ignore him.
Zhou Xiao and the others felt the same way, let alone Yun Zhaozhao. Pei Jiuyan was like a stubborn plaster, impossible to shake off.
Midway through, Pei Jiuyan went out to answer a phone call, and Fu Shangluo also said he needed to use the restroom, so soon only the three of them were left in the private room.
Zhou Xiao let out a long sigh and said, "A childhood sweetheart and an ex-husband, it's definitely a love triangle. Bao, take care."
Yun Zhaozhao, propping her head up with her hand, asked irritably, "Is there any way to make Pei Jiuyan give up?"
She really tried every method imaginable. She tried talking to him properly, and she even cursed him out, but now Pei Jiuyan has become invulnerable. Before, she could stay quiet for a few days after saying those things, but now there's nothing she can do.
"Yes, you should hurry up and find someone to marry."
"And it has to be a big shot like that."
Zhou Xiao also looked helpless: "But who can be older than Pei Jiuyan? Your childhood friend's family is an exception."
Fu Shangluo is definitely out of the question, but the Fu family is.
"Don't give me any bad advice."
Yun Zhaozhao had no intention of involving others, especially Fu Shangluo.
The call was from Assistant Qin. Chen Boxu was definitely not willing to be tricked by Pei Jiuyan, so he kept making small moves behind the scenes. Pei Jiuyan said a few words in a low voice and hung up the phone. He was about to return to the private room when he turned around and saw Fu Shangluo standing at the door, obviously waiting for him.
Their eyes met, and they went directly to an empty private room without any interaction.
"What is Professor Fu trying to say?"
Pei Jiuyan sat down and lit a cigarette, completely unlike the person he was in front of Yun Zhaozhao. This was the real Pei Jiuyan—dangerous and domineering.
“Pei Jiuyan, that’s enough. Zhaozhao doesn’t like you anymore, so don’t bother her anymore.”
Fu Shangluo warned.
Pei Jiuyan wasn't angry. She slightly curled the corner of her mouth and said, "Who gives you the right to say that? You watched her grow up and still couldn't make her like you? Fu Shangluo, what right do you, a loser, have to lecture me?"
