Chapter 40 That "brother" sounded so sweet.
"..."
Sensing the low pressure around them, everyone turned around abruptly.
A tall, slender man with an expensive suit and sharp, handsome features appeared at the door.
The man gripped Li Youde's wrist, his dark eyes like an unfathomable deep sea.
The golden sunlight couldn't suppress his noble and aloof demeanor.
"Who...who is it?"
The other party's domineering aura was so strong that Xu Qingye was so frightened that he could hardly speak. He swallowed hard and stammered.
"..."
Zhao Qianqian and Tang Yuan shook their heads like rattles.
I don't know.
So handsome, so charismatic, and a little fierce too.
It's kind of scary.
Pei Jinwu turned around, her doe-like eyes meeting the man's worried gaze.
The girl was surprised that he arrived so quickly; her pink lips curved slightly, and a glint of light flashed in her starry eyes.
Are you alright?
Shang Shiyan arrived by car and, after getting out, rushed inside without hesitation.
He was afraid that the little girl would suffer a loss.
But to my surprise, I heard her arguing with someone as soon as I got to the door; she was incredibly quick-witted.
It doesn't look like they're at a disadvantage at all.
"without."
Pei Jinwu smiled and sensibly stood next to Shang Shiyan.
after all.
He is now her "parent".
"What are you doing?" A sharp pain shot through his wrist, and Li Youde struggled desperately. "Help! Help!"
Upon hearing the summons, Li Youde's bodyguards immediately stepped forward.
However, before they even reached the door, they were stopped by another group of bodyguards.
It's obvious.
Shang Shiyan's bodyguard had a presence and aura that far surpassed that of the other bodyguard.
One look was enough to stop the other person from going any further.
"Sir, you are—"
Someone like Brother Wang, who was involved in officialdom, could tell from a person's appearance, clothing, and demeanor that Shang Shiyan was no ordinary person.
Not daring to be negligent, they immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile.
"Who did you just say you wanted to kill?"
Shang Shiyan ignored the other party, his sinister gaze fixed on Li Youde's face, his voice as cold as ice.
"I--"
Li Youde tried to resist, but the man's strength was too great, and it felt like his bones were about to break. "No, no!"
Is he a member of Pei Jinwu's family?
Weiwei didn't say that Pei Jinwu was a fake heiress who was kicked out and is now just a lowly person in the slums.
Crushing her would be easier than crushing an ant.
The man in front of her clearly knew Pei Jinwu and was definitely not a good person.
"It's best if there isn't one."
Shang Shiyan coldly tossed aside Li Youde's hand, took the disinfectant wipes handed to him by Feng Xing, and elegantly wiped his hands that had touched the trash.
"Imagiri, who is this...?"
Principal Song also noticed that Pei Jinwu and Shang Shiyan knew each other, and asked softly.
“He is my…” Pei Jinwu stared at the man’s face, pondered for a few seconds, and slowly uttered two words: “Brother.”
elder brother?
That clear, crisp voice, with a hint of coquettishness, drifted into the man's ears like a spring breeze.
Shang Shiyan felt as if something had struck his heart, causing a shallow ripple.
That "brother" sounded so sweet.
"elder brother?"
Principal Song was stunned for a moment. In her memory, Pei Jinwu only had one aunt.
Living in Mengjiao, the conditions were very poor.
Her brother... clearly wasn't an ordinary person.
"Mmm." Pei Jinwu nodded guiltily, bit her lip, and said without blushing or skipping a beat, "Distant brother."
"Is that so?"
Principal Song wanted to ask more questions, but when he suddenly met the gaze of his distant cousin, he trembled in fright.
The question that was on the tip of my tongue was swallowed back down.
"Hello, Principal. My surname is Shang."
Shang Shiyan stepped forward and proactively extended his hand to introduce himself.
"Hello, Mr. Shang."
Principal Song quickly extended his hand and politely shook it back.
I suddenly felt much more at ease.
With such a prominent older brother backing up Jinwu, this child will be alright, right?
business?
Upon hearing Shang Shiyan's introduction, Li Youde's heart skipped a beat.
In the entire capital, there are only a handful of families with the surname Shang.
The most famous of them all is the "century-old Shang family," which is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Regardless of who it is, as long as they have the surname Shang, no one can afford to offend them.
"Mr. Shang, is that right?"
Staff member Brother Wang straightened his clothes, walked forward with a smile, and extended his hands: "Hello Mr. Shang, I am the person in charge of the Xicheng District Police Station, my surname is Wang."
The Shang family is a legendary family in the capital.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be this little orphan girl's distant cousin.
No wonder he thought the girl was arrogant and ignored everyone.
So it turns out they have powerful backing.
Damn it.
Brother Wang wanted to gouge out his own eyes.
Of all people to offend, why offend a business owner? How many lives does he have?
"..."
Shang Shiyan glanced at the man indifferently, sat in the chair with his long legs naturally crossed, and tapped his hands on the armrests idly.
The sound wasn't loud, but Brother Wang felt a chill run down his spine.
The hand, raised in mid-air, is caught between a dilemma: whether to extend it or retract it.
"You mean my distant relative... the little girl, started a fight and hit someone, right?"
Shang Shiyan turned his head and deliberately glanced at the girl beside him as he spoke.
"..."
Pei Jinwu pursed her lips, wondering what she meant.
Role-playing, don't understand?
"Forehead……"
Brother Wang didn't dare to speak frankly, so he just ignored what he had said earlier and quickly dragged someone down with him, "It's like this, Mr. Shang, Li Youde and his son called the police, saying that Pei Jinwu assaulted someone."
"Well... I don't believe it either, so it's still under investigation."
whispering sound!
Upon hearing this, several parents rolled their eyes.
They can change their minds faster than turning the pages of a book; they're more suited to changing faces than handling cases.
When a spark hit him, Li Youde was quite frightened and excitedly explained, "Mr. Shang, there is surveillance video as proof. It was indeed Pei Jinwu who accidentally injured my son."
"However, I found out. It was just kids playing around, it's all in the past. Haha, it's all in the past."
Li Youde wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, trying to quickly smooth things over.
"Hitting someone?"
Shang Shiyan raised his eyes and looked at the little girl beside him, who was pursing her pink lips and looking very unhappy. He softened his voice and asked, "How many will you fight this time?"
Pei Jinwu: "?"
“Mr. Shang, they bullied us first, so Sister Wu took action.”
Xu Qingye, fearing that Pei Jinwu would be wrongly blamed by her elders, spoke up to explain, "That old bastard even destroyed the original surveillance footage and slandered my sister Wu."
Hearing the sound.
Shang Shiyan tilted his head and looked at Xu Qingye, his dark eyes narrowing dangerously.
snort.
This guy is quite protective of her.
"Since the surveillance cameras are broken, let's find someone to fix them."
"Our technicians have tried for a long time, but we can't restore it." Brother Wang said cautiously, his face looking quite grim.
"Those are useless technicians from your group." Shang Shiyan sneered, his dark eyes fixed on Feng Xing, and coldly ordered, "Transfer someone from the group."
"Yes, Master."
Just as Feng Xing was about to leave, the girl beside him suddenly spoke up: "Don't waste time, is there a computer? I'll restore it!"
She was just about to resume when Shang Shiyan suddenly arrived, disrupting her rhythm.
"???"
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to her.
Did I hear that right?
She wants to restore the surveillance?
Even tech experts couldn't accomplish this, but she, a high school student...
You must be kidding!

Good night.
