Chapter 116 Underestimation



Pei Siyu slightly raised his chin, narrowed his eyes, and looked at Wang Zhouheng with a strong sense of mockery.

Mingyao was caught between the two and had a headache.

Before the conflict between the two could escalate further, Mingyao stepped forward and stood between them.

Mingyao looked at Wang Zhouheng with a forced smile and explained, "Dr. Wang, you've misunderstood."

"Um," Mingyao quickly added, wanting to leave with Pei Siyu as soon as possible, "I suddenly remembered I have company matters to attend to. See you next time."

Before Wang Zhouheng could speak again, Mingyao grabbed Pei Siyu and strode away.

Wang Zhouheng watched the two figures walk away, his gaze involuntarily falling on Ming Yao holding Pei Siyu's hand, his brows furrowing in a frown.

After walking quite a distance, Mingyao finally let go of her hand.

She patted her chest, still shaken, and turned to look at Pei Siyu, who remained silent.

"President Pei, why are you arguing with Dr. Wang?"

She pouted, somewhat dissatisfied.

Pei Siyu raised an eyebrow, his face as cold as ice, and every word he uttered was as cold as if it had been tempered with ice.

He looked at Mingyao with a mocking smile, a sarcastic tone in his eyes: "Can't bear to part with her?"

Suddenly, Mingyao tightened her grip on her wrist.

Pei Siyu increased the force in his hand, almost crushing Mingyao's wrist.

Mingyao groaned in pain, her eyes reddening.

Her clear black and white eyes were veiled with tears, and her gaze toward Pei Siyu was full of grievance.

"President Pei, it hurts so much."

Tears welled up in her eyes, dangling at the corners, threatening to spill, making her look very pitiful.

Pei Siyu didn't let go; instead, he increased the force of his grip and pulled Mingyao into his arms.

Mingyao was caught completely off guard and fell into Pei Siyu's arms.

She awkwardly raised her eyes, only to be met by Pei Siyu's dark, unfathomable gaze.

Mingyao frowned, cursing Pei Siyu in her heart.

How can you have no gentlemanly manners at all?

She pouted, looking at Pei Siyu with teary eyes, like a frightened little rabbit.

"Pei, Mr. Pei, what's wrong?"

Pei Siyu's handsome and refined features suddenly magnified several times in front of her, almost occupying all of Mingyao's attention.

What kind of crazy thing is he doing now?

Mingyao cursed inwardly, but her face still showed a pitiful, weak and easily bullied look.

"Su Xueya".

Pei Siyu's lips curled into a wicked yet mocking smile, his eyes filled with even more sarcasm.

"How come I never noticed how charming you were before?"

"It's incredible that Wang Zhouheng is so infatuated with you."

Mingyao: "..."

Does he know what nonsense he's spouting?

What obsession? That's utter nonsense!

Mingyao was furious and wished she could dig out Pei Siyu's head to see what he was thinking.

Pei Siyu is a workaholic with outstanding work ability, and even more outstanding imagination.

admire!

Mingyao dared not speak, silently gritting her teeth, and persisting in maintaining the innocent and pure persona of a naive girl.

“President Pei, Dr. Wang is my wife’s younger brother. I have only met him a handful of times. It’s not the relationship you’re mistaken about.”

Pei Siyu's face was expressionless, but the coldness in his eyes was like an ice pick, piercing through Tongbao Yao's chest.

Mingyao's eyes grew even redder, and she looked at Pei Siyu pitifully, choking back tears as she said, "President Pei, everything I said is true."

How rude!

Mingyao tried her best to squeeze out two tears.

Normally, tears fall from the corners of the eyes, but Mingyao's tears fell directly from her eyes, making her even more pitiful.

But Pei Siyu had no heart; he was unmoved.

Just as Mingyao was trying to figure out how to deal with Pei Siyu, a deep, husky, and very magnetic male voice came from beside her ear.

Weren't you very proactive before coming to the hospital?

Mingyao felt a chill run down her spine as unbearable memories flashed through her mind.

Mingyao's toes dug into the ground; she just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

A blush crept onto her cheeks, and her gaze toward Pei Siyu became shy.

"President Pei, I... I was drugged."

As she spoke, Mingyao's brows furrowed, and a hint of disgust appeared in her eyes.

"I don't know why I became like that. I'm sorry, Mr. Pei. I won't do it again."

Seeing that he didn't reply for a long time, Mingyao timidly raised her eyes.

The moment she looked up, her eyes met Pei Siyu's. It was only for a brief instant before she lowered her head, looking pitiful and terrified.

"Su Xueya, I don't care what your relationship with Wang Zhouheng is."

He commanded in an unquestionable tone, "You are not allowed to have any further contact with him."

Mingyao frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction appearing in her glassy eyes.

She and Wang Zhouheng have a completely innocent relationship, so why can't they have contact?

Moreover, Wang Zhouheng was also helping her take care of Ming Suqin.

Pei Siyu, don't go too far!

Mingyao's little monster roared and howled in her heart, venting her dissatisfaction with Pei Siyu.

Pei Siyu raised an eyebrow and asked in a cold voice, "Are you very dissatisfied?"

"Or," he paused, leaning close to Mingyao's ear and deliberately emphasizing his words, "do you want something to happen between you and Wang Zhouheng?"

Mingyao swiftly concealed the displeasure in her eyes, reverting to her usual obedient smile, "How could that be?"

"In my heart, President Pei is the most important person, and no one can replace him."

She looked at Pei Siyu with sparkling eyes, her gaze filled with adoration. "President Pei, I am your wife, and I would never do anything to betray you."

Her tone was firm, her words earnest, and she was very sincere.

Upon hearing these words, Mingyao got goosebumps all over.
