Mingyao watched all of this indifferently, finding it all rather amusing.
The old man liked Qin Jiaojiao and was very fond of her.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Qin Jiaojiao held the old man's hand and said many words of blessing.
The old man was all smiles.
Qin Jiaojiao's gaze fell on Pei Siyu and Ming Yao as she gradually approached.
"The second person I care about is Brother Pei."
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, all casting curious looks at Mingyao.
Qin Jiaojiao brazenly said some ambiguous and suggestive things to Pei Siyu, and they were very curious about how Mingyao would handle it.
Mingyao remained calm and simply took Pei Siyu's hand.
“Brother Pei is very important to me; he practically occupied my childhood and adolescence.”
"When I was little, I naively thought I could marry Brother Pei, but I never expected that Brother Pei would break his promise first and marry my sister."
"But it's alright, I sincerely wish you both a long and happy life together."
Qin Jiaojiao looked at Mingyao and took her hand with a sisterly affection.
A chill ran down Mingyao's spine.
“Miss Su, I can tell you really love Brother Pei, and I’m so happy.”
"True love can indeed change a person."
"Miss Su was completely different before she got married. Now she has become so gentle and considerate for Brother Pei. I am a little envious of him."
Mingyao frowned slightly, catching a fleeting glimpse of smugness in Qin Jiaojiao's eyes.
What a Qin Jiaojiao!
They used words of blessing to belittle her.
Everyone present knew that Pei Siyu was forced to marry Su Xueya.
Ninety percent of the guests were well aware of Su Xueya's past scandals.
Qin Jiaojiao pretended to sincerely wish him well: "Sister Su, you must treat my brother well."
Mingyao smiled calmly: "Don't worry."
Qin Jiaojiao did not intend to give up.
She took Mingyao's hand and asked sincerely, "The more I understand Miss Su, the more I admire her."
"Changing a person is the hardest thing, but Miss Su changed herself very easily."
"Miss Su, how exactly did you manage to become such a completely different person before and after marrying my brother?"
"Could you teach me?"
Qin Jiaojiao's malice was almost written all over her face.
Before Mingyao could speak, Pei Siyu's cold voice came: "It's a kind of politeness to only dabble in other people's privacy and past."
Qin Jiaojiao's smile froze.
She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said shyly, "I just wanted to learn a thing or two from Miss Su."
There was no ill intent.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Su, that was a very abrupt question."
Mingyao laughed generously: "What's there to apologize for?"
She gazed at Pei Siyu with deep emotion and made up a story with great conviction: "Before I met Pei Siyu, I didn't believe in love at all, and I only knew how to numb myself with alcohol."
"It wasn't until I married Pei Siyu that I understood why I was alive."
"I am who I am today thanks to Pei Siyu's tolerance and love."
"Being with him is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me."
Mingyao stared at Qin Jiaojiao, deliberately poking at her sore spots.
Is someone trying to expose her past to discredit her?
So she had no choice but to rub salt into Qin Jiaojiao's most sensitive wound.
What good is liking Pei Siyu?
She's the one who registered her marriage with Pei Siyu!
Mingyao raised her chin slightly, looked at Qin Jiaojiao who was pale, and her eyes showed a hint of smugness.
Qin Jiaojiao was furious and embarrassed.
She originally intended to take this opportunity to kick Mingyao while she was down.
Who knew that she would take the opportunity to show off her affection for Pei Siyu in front of everyone.
Qin Jiaojiao was somewhat embarrassed.
She looked at Grandpa Pei again: "Grandpa, is this the reason you chose Miss Su as your daughter-in-law?"
Qin Jiaojiao was eager to gain a sense of presence in front of Grandpa Pei, who doted on her the most.
As someone who has lived for over a century, I can see right through what Qin Jiaojiao, a young woman in her early twenties, is thinking.
His face darkened, and his usually kind eyes turned cold.
Those present were so frightened that they fell silent.
Since the old man retired, he hasn't lost his temper for many years.
Qin Jiaojiao wasn't stupid; she keenly sensed that something was off about the old man's demeanor.
Her heart was in her throat, and she asked hesitantly, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"
The old man fiddled with his wheelchair a couple of times and said softly, "Jiaojiao, your brother's marriage is his own decision."
"As long as he's satisfied, no one can say anything about it."
"You should say less about your brother's marriage in the future."
Qin Jiaojiao's face turned ashen.
She considered herself to be quite important in Old Master Pei's heart.
Who would have thought that the old man would suddenly speak up for Mingyao!
Why would the old man who loves Pei Siyu the most tolerate a woman with a bad reputation who is not even worthy of helping Pei Siyu?
Qin Jiaojiao was completely baffled.
But since the old man had already said so much, if she argued back, she wouldn't garner sympathy; instead, she would be disliked by him.
What method did Su Xueya use to get the old man to speak up for her?!
Qin Jiaojiao was unwilling to accept this.
It wasn't that she couldn't tolerate Pei Siyu being with other women.
Even if they were to be together, it shouldn't be someone as lowly as Su Xueya, but rather a woman who is outstanding enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with Pei Siyu.
Qin Jiaojiao stared at Mingyao with jealousy.
Mingyao simply ignored her.
