Pei Jian raised his eyelids and looked at his stupid 'son' with an unclear expression.
"Master Chang, show him the testimony."
Lord Chang immediately handed the thing in his hand to Pei Kangsheng, "If you still don't believe it, there are witnesses."
Pei Kangsheng took over the results and testimony. The facts were clear and some of the testimonies matched.
This included why the horse went crazy, where the medicine came from, and how she got it into the horse's hay.
But after looking at it again and again, he still felt it was outrageous.
"But why did she drug her own horse? Why did she end up like this?"
Lord Chang snorted, "You'll have to ask her yourself."
What's so hard about this? It's just that harming others will eventually harm yourself.
I thought it was a good thing, but now it seems that I still need to investigate the original matter again.
Pei Jian didn't want to stay here and watch his adopted son do something stupid anymore.
He stood up and said softly, "Let's go."
Pei Kangsheng thought that the words "Let's go" were directed at him.
Just as he was hesitating whether to leave, Pei Jian turned his head and his eyes glanced at Tu Qingyu.
Tu Qingyu immediately understood. She stood up, clapped her hands, and walked calmly to Pei Jian's side.
Pei Kangsheng: ???
When did the two of them become so good?
Tu Qingyu got straight into Pei Jian's carriage. Yu Qi and Zhou Baozhu did not dare to act rashly and went home.
After a while, Pei Kangsheng chased out.
He was frightened when he thought of Pei Jian's expression just now and wanted to climb onto the carriage to explain to Pei Jian.
Unexpectedly, someone stopped him and said, "Sir, the master said you can walk back."
"Walk, walk back?" Pei Kangsheng stared blankly. It would take an hour to take a carriage from the Chang family's horse farm to the Pei family's. Walk back?
The servant smiled slightly, and soon the carriage started slowly.
Tu Qingyu sat in the car, tugged at the man's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Uncle Pei? Didn't you say you couldn't come?"
"On the way." Pei Jian lowered his eyes and looked at her hand grabbing his sleeve, his eyes darkened.
"Oh~" she stretched out the ending sound, "On my way..."
This delicate ending tone went straight into his heart.
Pei Jian, once again aware of Tu Qingyu's abnormal behavior, reached out and gently pulled out his sleeve, "Sit down."
She moved closer to Pei Jian and said, "I'm sitting very well, right? I'm not sitting on the ground either, Uncle Pei. You have so many rules."
He didn't say anything. She turned sideways and put her hand on his arm. "Uncle Pei, where are we going?"
The warmth from his palm penetrated the thin spring shirt. Pei Jian's sexy Adam's apple moved. After a long while, he spoke, "I'll take you home."
"Uncle Pei, I was actually brought here by a carriage."
Pei Jian subconsciously moved the Buddhist beads on his wrist, "I know."
With this movement, Tu Qingyu's gaze also dropped.
"Uncle Pei." She placed her hand on his Buddhist beads again. "I see you wear this string of beads every day. Is there anything special about it?"
"I told you before, calm down."
"Really? Just meditation?"
"Um."
"Can you give it to me?"
He opened his eyes slightly, and a hint of surprise appeared in his usually indifferent eyes.
It was as if he hadn't expected Tu Qingyu to ask him for this.
"What's wrong? Uncle Pei is reluctant to let you go?" she asked, looking up.
He stared into her eyes for a long time, and she stared back without showing any weakness.
Finally, he softly replied, "Yeah."
She curled her lips and sat down as he said, about two people's distance away from him.
"How stingy."
This was said as if a younger generation who had always been pampered asked for some treasure from the elders and did not get it the first time.
He closed his eyes, turned the Buddhist beads in his hands, and said nothing more.
Half an hour later, the car stopped and the voice of the Pei family's entourage came from outside, "Sir, the Tu family has arrived."
Pei Jian opened his eyes and looked at the girl. Tu Qingyu didn't wait for him to say anything and stood up on his own, "Thank you, Uncle Pei, for seeing me off."
When he went out, he hummed softly again.
It was obvious that he was still angry about what had just happened.
The person from the Pei family who opened the door for her was shocked. Is this a way to show disrespect to the adults?
This "hum" sound, can't it be just for them to see?
He secretly raised his eyes to see his master's expression and found that he was not angry at all. In his eyes, was there... a smile?
Sir, do you like your future great-grandmother so much?
On the other side, Pei Kangsheng had not even reached halfway after an hour.
By the time he walked home, it was dark.
Unfortunately, as soon as he returned home, he was told that Pei Jian asked him to kneel in the yard.
His expression was very grim. "Did I hear it wrong? I haven't done anything wrong during this period. Why did father..."
"Master, it was the master who gave the order himself. I heard it correctly."
"Where's my father? I want to see him."
"Your Excellency is in the study. You know that when Your Excellency is in the study, he never allows anyone to disturb him."
Pei Kangsheng was somewhat dissatisfied, but he could not resist Pei Jian at all.
Whatever Pei Jian said was what he always did, and he didn't dare to express any dissatisfaction.
It was so in the past and it will be so in the future.
He was just a child from the Pei family's side branch who had lost both parents. It was only by chance that he caught the eye of Old Madam Pei, and that gave him the opportunity to come to the capital and become the venerated head of the Pei family.
Everything he has was brought by Pei Jian.
After enjoying the good things, who would be willing to go back and become a poor little person who can be bullied by everyone?
